All Chapters of The Accused Mate: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Amari finished her meal and stood from the dining room table to leave.“Sit,” Alexander demanded.“Why? I’m finished with my meal.”“I haven’t dismissed you,” he reminded her. Amari complied and returned to her seat. She focused her attention on the tapestry on the wall to avoid the awkwardness of being in Alexander’s presence.“Camilla should be sitting where you right now,” Alexander said suddenly.“Here we go,” Amari mumbled, getting fed up with Alexander constantly referring to her deceased sister who she couldn’t give a damn about.“Excuse me?”“You bring her up more than you should considering that she tricked you. You don’t even miss her. You’re trying to rub her in my face. For what? I couldn’t tell you because I don’t have feelings for you and don’t think of you in that way. I can’t say that I’m sorry for your loss. Plus, if you truly believed I had anything to do with Camilla’s death, then you wouldn’t keep me around, and you surely wouldn’t cuddle with me at night.”“You sh

Alexander clenched his teeth as he stared at Amari’s empty seat. It was well past 6:00 in the evening, and she should have completed her surveillance duties for the day. He had gone as far as calling Sharon to confirm. Where was she? Did she possibly leave the estate without Alexander or his security team noticing? If that were the case, then he needed to get rid of the whole team and start again from scratch.“This girl is so fucking inconsiderate,” he seethed, throwing his dinner napkin onto the table. He kicked back his chair and went to look for her. It didn’t take long for him to realize Amari was no longer in the castle. He entered the gardens thinking he would find her there, but was greatly dismayed.The sound of bones cracking and growling filled the air as he shifted into his wolf. HE had caught a faint whiff of her scent coming from the forest surrounding the castle. Titus now had control and wouldn’t stop until Amari was located.Titus shot off to the forest and let out a

It was five days later, and Amari was assimilating into her new duties smoothly. She was still lagging Kevin and Logan when it came to surveillance, but they reassured her that as an amateur, she was doing well.She had 25 days left until she could leave, but now, she was unsure if she wanted to. She was no longer being bullied every day and the other wolves didn’t disrespect her, though they were standoffish towards her. She wondered if Alexander had something to do with that.She had a less hectic workload with easier tasks, and she no longer had to struggle through heinous chores for several hours a day. Not to mention, she was allowed to eat at the dining room table and not in the kitchen like some lowly slave. The only downfall of being with the Artemis Pack was Alexander. He was confusing with a capital “C” and frequently left her with whiplash from his ever-changing mood swings. One moment, he was pleasant, and she didn’t mind being around him, and in another moment, he could b

"Oh, my...Amari! What happened to you?!" Sharon shouted once she finally opened the door. Amari lay unconscious in a pool of her blood."Holy shit! What happened?" Sam asked once he double backed to the security room. Before he left, he erased all the footage from the computers of the entire castle for the entire day. No one would know he was the one who attacked Amari unless she woke and snitched on him. For Sam's sake, he hoped she never woke. Sam had even changed clothes and taken care of his wound in his absence. "Go get, Alpha Alexander," Sharon instructed before she knelt in front of Amari. She gently shook her, but Amari didn't respond. She felt for a pulse and let out a relieved sigh once she found one. It fainted, but it was still there. "Hurry!" Sharon snarled once she realized Sam was still standing there. "Right away," he said, making his exit from the security room. Sam heard the faint beating of Amari's heart and figured the slower he took to get to Alpha Alexand

A tear slid down Amari's face as she replayed in her mind what Alexander had said about her. She was nothing but a burden and a pain in the ass. Maybe she would move on after thirty days have passed. The last thing she wanted to be was a burden."Amari?" Sharon asked from above her. "Are you awake?"Amari opened her eyes and winced at the unnatural bright fluorescent lights above her. Sharon quickly noticed and rushed to lower the lights."Thank you," Amari hoarsely whispered. Her hand flew up to her throat and she gently massaged it. "Amari, who did this to you?" Sharon pleaded. "I-I-I don't know," Amari stammered. "Are you sure? You're not covering up for anyone, are you? We need to know. You don't have to be afraid, Amari. We will protect you, but we can't do that if you're hiding the truth from us.""No. I don't know. I'm not sure what happened after breakfast. What happened to me, Sharon?"Sharon let out an exasperated sigh. When it rains, it pours, she thought to herself.
