All Chapters of Once His Mate, Now His Rival: Chapter 171 - Chapter 180

Chapter One Hundred And Seventy Two: Craving In Silence It was already evening by the time the whole family arrived home, the car rolling to a stop in the driveway. Dana stepped out and hurried upstairs to her room. She felt sticky and sweaty after spending the entire day under the sun, and the only thing on her mind was a shower.Entering her room, she pulled off her clothes and slipped into the bathroom, turning the knob until warm water poured from the showerhead. Stepping under the spray, she let out a quiet breath as the water washed the dust and sweat from her skin. Her eyes drifted closed, wishing it could rinse away the thoughts clouding her mind too.Marcus's lips… his broad shoulders… the hard lines of his body.The images washed through her mind invited, a soft moan escaping her lips as she felt her pussy throb."Fuck..." she muttered under her breath, bracing her hands against the tiled wall as the water streamed over her hair and down her back.She stayed beneath the spr

Chapter One Hundred And Seventy Four: Too Close To Resist Dana was at the sink, donning on a pair kitchen gloves, about to start washing the dishes, when Marcus walked into the kitchenHe stopped just behind her, his eyes falling on her peach, drawn to the sway of her hips with every movement.He stifled a groan, trying to ignore the reaction tightening his jeans.Noelle had left a few minutes ago to meet up with her best friend, Marceline. Victor and Laura were upstairs, clearly in the middle of a very romantic evening.Marcus frowned. Being an Alpha came with having superior senses as compare to other werewolves. He could still hear their grunts and moans all the way down here, which only made things worse for him.A slow, crooked smirk tugged at his lips as he stepped closer, reaching for Dana's waist, when all a sudden, she spun around and drove her fist straight into his chest, making him wince.He looked at her with awe, surprised she had even sense him coming. He had approache

Chapter One Hundred And Seventy Six: Midnight Temptations After Marcus left the house, Dana tried to distract herself by scrolling through facbook reels, browsing YouTube, even flipping through some of the pack's reports, but nothing held her attention. She set the papers down on the table and climbed onto the bed, putting on 'Falling' by Harry Styles, trying to lull herself to sleep. But that too did't work. "Fuck..." she muttered, frustration bubbling up for no apparent reason. Well... there was a reason. One obviously annoying reason she refused to admit aloud. Marcus. She couldn't stop thinking about him. Couldn't stop replaying the kitchen that evening. The way his strong arms had wrapped around her waist. The way his hard chest pressed against her back. The heat of his breath against her ear. The way his rigid length had pressed into her ass. A shiver ran through her, and her core throbbed at the memory. Forcing herself to think of anything else, she sat up, deciding a s

Chapter One Hundred And Seventy Eight: They found HerHis lips crashed against hers in a scorching kiss, his tongue pressing insistently, claiming, as he fought for dominance. An involuntary moan escaped her as her eyes fluttered shut. His mouth ignited a fire in her veins that spread all the way down to her core. The longer they kissed, the more powerless she felt against him.Marcus groaned, pulling her closer, his hard shaft pressing against her. His hand trailed down her flat stomach, sliding lower until two fingers slipped beneath the waistband of her leggings, making her freeze.Dana didn't know where the strength came from, but her heart hammered as she shoved him away."What are you doing, Marc?" she shouted, shock and embarrassment lacing every word. She couldn't believe he had kissed her, again. And worse, that she had kissed him back. What the hell was she thinking?Marcus inhaled sharply, staring at her, his wolf purring inside him. She had kissed him back... that tiny, fl

Chapter One Hundred And Eighty: When The Night BeganThe sun was still high in the sky when they returned to the pack house. Dana excused herself immediately, and went straight to her room, leaning against the door the moment she stepped inside.She closed her eyes, her heart hammering erratically in her chest as her thoughts drifted back to beyond the pack borders, to Julien. To the man she had never expected to see again.What was he doing here? In New South Wales? And more importantly… how had he found her?With everything that had happened back then, she’d believed it was all over. That she would never have to cross paths with that man, or his pack, ever again. So why was Julien here now? Why did he have to resurface after fourteen long years of absence?She squeezed her eyes shut, forcing the thoughts aside before they could overwhelm her, hoping to bury them deep within the bowels of her mind forever.When she finally opened her eyes, her thoughts shifted to Marcus. To what had
