Maliyla's POVThe thought of ripping her head off was excruciating. The fact that she touched my mate with her unpolished hand was enough to cause her death. Without even realizing it, I walked towards her out of anger. I could feel everyone's gaze on us. There was an undeniable tension in the air.She smirked as I looked into her dark brown eyes. "Is it Natalia?" I asked. In response, Natalia nodded. "Well, Natalia, I believe you are mistaken. First of all, Hector told me about you and the engagement, and I accepted his past just like he did mine. My second point is that you may have had him once, but I have him all the time now," I paused as I swiped my hair to the side, revealing Hector's mark on my neck. "Lastly and most importantly, if you come near my mate again or refer to him as anything apart from his title, I'll rip your fucken heart out. Am I making myself unclear?" I questioned menacingly.

Maliyla's POVThe more Erick talked, the more my blood began to boil. My composure was tested as Hector reminded me about the humans in the restaurant, but Hathor was my main concern. It was only a matter of time until Hathor took over. Even though I feared she would do so, something inside me told me all would be well. Upon seeing Erick seated, I could no longer control my emotions. His cocky grin made me want to jump over the table and slap it off his face, as I also wanted to rip out his fucking heart."In exchange, I will give you her mother," Erick's cocky words ignited the fire within me, and I could no longer resist."I'm not yours, and you can stop acting big and bad. You don't even have your fucken wolf," I told him."Is that what you think, my sweet kitten?" Erick asked."That's what I know," I said, rising from my seat.

Hector's POVIt had been five hours since we had last seen Jonathan or Katia. After scouting the area where their vehicle had been abandoned, we could not locate them. There was no scent, nothing more than a ghostly absence. After Maliyla fainted, Daunte and I rushed her to the hospital, and I stayed by her side the entire time, pleading with her not to leave me. In addition to me being concerned, Jasper was unable to sense Hathor. My heart was heavy with worry and fear as I grappled with the possibility of losing Jonathan, Katia, and Maliyla. The uncertainty and helplessness gnawed at my soul, leaving me emotionally drained and desperate for answers."Resta con me, Bellissima, stay with me," I pleaded as I gently raised her hands to my lips."No change?" Daunte asked when he entered the room.As I placed Maliyla's hands back on the bed, I s

Hector's POVAs soon as I exited the car, Jasper was pacing back and forth on high alert. Something was off, but I could not pinpoint what it was. My heart raced as I ran to the other side and opened the door for Maliyla just in time. After she stepped out, something struck the car in a matter of seconds, causing it to flip multiple times before bursting into flames. I growled at him as soon as Leonard stepped out of the pack house."Leonard, get her out of here now," I screamed through the mind link, "All warriors, get to your stations. We need three teams at the packhouse right now!" Closing the link, I grabbed Maliyla. "I want you inside," I roared, handing her to Leonard."PROTECT MATE," Jasper's voice echoed in my mind."Nothing will happen to her," I assured him.Jasper repeated, "PROTECT MATE." He wanted to remain next to he

Maliyla's POVAs soon as I found out my parents were coming to Crystal Blood, I was all kinds of fucked up. It had been months since I had seen or heard from them. I was torn between the longing for a reunion and the fear of facing the painful memories and unresolved issues that my parents represented. The thought of seeing them again stirred up a mix of excitement, anxiety, and apprehension, leaving me in a state of emotional turmoil."Maliyla," Hathor's voice echoed in my head."Perfect timing," I said, stepping into the shower and letting the hot water run over my aching body. I was physically and emotionally exhausted after spending so long in wolf form, fighting and throwing all of my power into it. Even though Hathor took all the hits, my body still hurt from them."You seem lonely and like you need someone to talk to," Hathor responded.
