Semua Bab Ravished By Four Insatiable Beasts: Bab 21 - Bab 30

ZORYA“Alpha Ares!” she shouted again, voice sharp enough to puncture the moonlight. “What the hell are you doing here? Why are any of you here?”Ares didn’t answer, his chest still rising and falling like a beast caged too long. But the others wasted no time pointing fingers, literally.“He attacked her first,” Finn said first, tone vicious.“Yeah, he went feral,” Gunner added with a smug tilt of his head. “And he tried to mark her without her permission.”Kai folded his arms, calm but lethal. “A disqualifying offense. I noted it for the record.”My jaw dropped. “Record? What the actual fuck?”Vivia snapped before I could finish. “Disqualify? Are you INSANE? This isn’t a reality TV dating show!”“It really isn’t,” I tried again.But Kai continued as though he were dictating minutes. “We are bonded by a sacred Law. A structure must be maintained to keep the balance of the mate bond in check.”“Oh please,” Finn scoffed. “You’re only mad you didn’t get here first.”A low growl rumbled f

ZORYAThe smell of popcorn, the squeal of roller coasters, and the laughter of carefree humans filled the air as we walked through the amusement park. Gunner’s hand brushed mine once, teasingly, before he let it fall back to his side. My heart still hadn’t decided if it wanted to race or calm the hell down.“You’re tense,” he said, smirk tugging at his lips as he snagged a funnel cake for each of us. “Don’t tell me Ares has your pulse racing already.”I rolled my eyes. “I’m not tense. It’s… this place. It’s loud.”He raised a brow. “Sure, Zo. Loud.”Gunner leaned against the railing of the Ferris wheel line, arms crossed, casual as ever, but the faint glint in his eyes told me he was watching me closely. Studying me. Feeling me. Making me nervous in a way that was all his own.“You know,” he said suddenly, shoving a piece of funnel cake into his mouth, “I used to think… love was a weakness.”I froze mid-step. “Oh?”“Yeah,” he continued, voice low, the easy grin fading. “I had a mate o

ZORYAI had braced myself for Kai.After the chaos of Finn’s daredevil escapades and Gunner’s emotional rollercoaster, I expected Kai to be… boring. Predictable. A safe choice. His reputation for calm calculation and cold intellect preceded him, and I thought, honestly, I might struggle to stay awake.I couldn’t have been more wrong.He waited outside the faculty library, as if he had emerged from a shadowed corner only to observe the world in perfect control. He wasn’t loud, didn’t flash a grin, didn’t try to sweep me off my feet with some reckless stunt. No, Kai simply looked at me, his dark eyes measuring, assessing, and something inside me shivered at the intensity.“Zorya,” he said, voice smooth, deliberate. “I hope you’re prepared for something… different.”I blinked. “Different?”“Yes,” he said, offering me his arm. “You may think this will be dull, but I promise it will not. I intend to challenge you. Mentally. Emotionally. Perhaps… in ways you have yet to anticipate.”I hesit

ZORYAStudying was supposed to be peaceful. Quiet. A chance to reset after the emotional chaos of the past few days.Instead, the universe laughed in my face.I barely got through three pages before a shadow fell over the table. A large, intense, unmistakable shadow.Ares stepped between the bookshelves like he owned them, jaw tight, eyes burning with that barely contained wildfire that could either protect a kingdom or burn it down in seconds. He had been unexplainably close to me since, more than the others. At some point, I had the urge to ask him if he didn’t have anything to do than follow me around like a puppet. His deep voice interrupted me from the silent studying I was doing.“Zorya,” he growled softly, “why are you hiding?”I blinked. “I’m not hiding. I’m studying, obviously.”Ares planted a hand on the shelf behind me, caging me in. “You smell overwhelmed.”“That doesn’t mean you get to corner me like some rabbit.”“Or maybe like someone who remembers how you looked at me

ZORYABy the time I reached my apartment, my lips still tingled from Ares’ kiss. I splashed cold water on my face hoping that it would wear off the dramatic effect his kiss had left on me.It did nothing.My wolf was restless and still pacing, throbbing with heat, replaying every moment of his breath on my neck.I barely had time to sit when my phone buzzed.FINN: Open your window.I frowned, confused, walked to the window… and blinked.Finn was perched on the rooftop across from mine, leaning on one knee, hair tousled by the wind, grin wide enough to light the city.“You look like you just escaped a crime scene,” he called out softly.I rolled my eyes. “Finn, what are you doing…”Before I finished, he hopped across the narrow gap between buildings like gravity didn’t apply to him, landing right in front of me.My breath hitched. He smelled like salt air and mischief.“Get dressed,” he said, offering a hand. “We’re going on an adventure.”“It’s… Finn, it’s almost midnight.”“Exactly.”
