Alle Kapitel von MATED TO THE ENEMY ALPHA: Kapitel 71 – Kapitel 80

ElaraEverything about the Moonlight pack was intentional. I liked it. Soft breezes carried a floral scent here. And they were suited to host a conclave. I slept well—almost though. Anton helped shift my mind away from Draven and the rest. This morning felt nice and the rooms were breathtaking. When I went last night to see what the Alphas' suite looked like Kyra almost killed me with her eyes. This morning I adjusted Lior on my hip as I stepped out into the already busy courtyard, my eyes taking everything in once again like it might make more sense the more I take it in.I saw stone pathways curved very elegantly around gardens that were decorated with silver-leafed trees. It was beautiful too but Ironfang gardens were more beautiful if I was honestly comparing. They had frosted flowers that looked and glimmered like crystals. Some sharp enough to cut you if you weren’t careful. The moonlight pack was beautiful though. I appreciated their scenery. Reminds me of Thornshade a litt

ElaraAerin was funny. I’ve never come across an Alpha who’s deeply worried about finding his mate but wants all the fun.While we waited for his Beta to get their bags, I noticed the Conclave became more busy. By midday, everywhere was livelier—music weaved through the air, laughter rose, and movement everywhere. “What’s happening?”“The Moonspring ritual,” Alpha Aerin said beside me, his voice light with familiarity. He’d done this a number of times…I’m sure. “It’s one of the highlights,” he continued.It was an event and apparently a ritual.I focused my attention at the center of the courtyard where the preparations were already underway. I saw a circular clearing had been opened, and in it glowed faintly with etched symbols that looked like they were pulsing under the sunlight.“What exactly is the ritual for and how does it work?”“Well, it is a sacred thermal spring where wolves “cleanse” before any proceedings,” he chuckled. “But, apparently every wolf here must partake, es

DravenMy nose caught her scent before I saw her—hijacking my whole senses. It was like a siren’s call, that intoxicating blend of honey and lavender that was uniquely hers. My shoulders stilled as I raised my head and there she was—in a see-through black sheer mooncloth that wrapped around her like it had been placed there as a formality. For a moment, my mind couldn’t process what I was seeing…what she was wearing. The mooncloth traced her body, stopping short mid thigh with a very open slit at the right side revealing her perfect figure, her slim waist, and smooth flawless skin. Her black underwear on display, so was the top of her cleavage. My eyes dragged along her body, refusing to obey anything resembling being subtle.Her hair was in a messy bun as strands stuck to the back of her neck from the heat in the air. I looked at the line of her perfect collarbone, the way the fabric shifted with each step she took, outlining the curve of her waist, and sway of her hips. My eyes w

DravenThe real purpose of the Conclave never happens in the open. By late evening, all the performances had ended.The servants would be preparing for the banquet and the women would be getting ready to attend. I personally looked forward to it more than being here. These meetings always tired me out.Alpha Domario stood at the center of his inner room as some of us sat and others stood. I stood, I always did, made me more observant and I could easily read their body language properly. “Thank you all for coming,” Domario began, his voice carrying easily across the room as always. The room was quieter than the courtyard— more heavier. “Today, we’ll try and keep this direct.”Better. I preferred it that way.He took a moment and leaned over the metal table filled with cups and wine, “Volkava.” He said letting the name settle in the air instantly. Several Alphas leaned forward slightly, others exchanged looks and some shifted in their seatsAlpha Artreus—a little older, and known fo

ElaraThe moment she stepped into the hall, I noticed but I didn’t turn my head. I didn’t let Zuri or Kael notice that my entire awareness had just narrowed to one point—ElaraI noticed every detail—the way that gown clung to her like it had been made with her in mind alone. The way the fabric moved in a soft, fluid way when she walked…very distracting. Her shoulders were bare, her neck adorned with a single necklace, her spine straight, and her chin slightly lifted as she walked towards Aerin who waved at her. Elara Everstorm outshone this room and I think a few of the Lunas noticed it. My fingers tightened slightly against the armrest.She was beautiful…dangerously so.I couldn’t blame the Alphas who were staring. It was hard not to when she was in the room. Aerin waves and she goes to sit beside him.I pulled my gaze back to my son who had eaten half my plate. The child eats much just like me and it is such a delight to watch him eat. Soon after, he fell asleep and I handed Lior t
