Semua Bab Mated To The Enemy Zareth: Bab 11 - Bab 20

SiennaI don’t even get a chance to answer Astrid’s question before she is up on her legs and brushing blood from her mouth with the back of her hand. She is angry and glaring at me like she wants me dead.Maya reaches out her hand, placing it on her sister’s shoulder, “Astrid, I—”Astrid removes her sister’s hand without looking away from me. “When Maya said the moon goddess had picked a zareth for your mate, I didn’t believe it. Now I see the truth, and this? This is sickening! It isn’t natural for you to be mated to a monster. You need to reject him! Just wait until the pack elders hear about this. They are going to punish you!”“Punish her?!” Korrin roars, suddenly standing between me and Astrid with his tail going back and forth. “Is that what your people do? Punish people when the moon goddess picks a different species as your mate? Are you that barbaric?!”Shock travels over Astrid’s face. It takes no genius to figure out she didn’t expect a zareth to be able to articulate them

SiennaHome doesn’t feel safe. It doesn’t matter that I walk in through the door with Maya and Astrid behind me. The memory of Felix standing over me, glaring down into my soul with the rage of a man who can’t decide whether he wants to own or destroy me clings to my mind. I can’t shake it off. Can’t stop myself from shaking. I’m so disappointed in myself. I thought I was over this. That I was stronger than my scars, but when Korrin appears in the doorway, it becomes obvious that I’m not. Because the second I’m raking him up, I’m eaten by fear. Too big. Too not werewolf. Shit...He is standing there, his body filling the space. Broad shoulders, huge hands. The kind of strength that could crush a wolf. He is not Felix, I remind myself. He is gentle. He is patient. He touches me softly, never forcing himself onto me, never taking more than I’m willing to give him, and yet I’m afraid to meet his eyes. What is wrong with me? Why am I like this???Korrin’s blue tail sways when he see

SiennaI can’t relax under my own roof. Korrin said he would protect me. Astrid and Maya are still here, and I still don’t feel safe. Not after what happened today. There is tension in every heartbeat, and every time I close my eyes, I see Felix and remember the terror he awakened in me. Astrid is sprawled out on the couch in the living room, feet up on the table, eyes glued to the TV. She is pretending to watch some drama show, but I know she is listening for every sound coming from outside the house. Ever the Beta. Can’t ever take them off duty. Maya is the same, though. She has been cleaning the kitchen for hours, something I haven’t really done since my parents died. I always eat at Felix’s house…well, I did. When we were a couple. How do I get him out of my head?!I try to focus on making my bed and ignore Korrin, who is outside in the garden. He has been wandering from window to window. He is making sure that no vampire can make it inside, even if I told him they need an inv

SiennaKorrin isn’t holding me when I wake it. It confuses me. Confuses my wolf, too. I fell asleep with him holding me, but here I am, aching while touching an empty mattress where he should be. Maybe he woke up and decided not to wake me?The scent of coffee is coming from the kitchen. It makes my mouth water. I’m the kind of girl who isn’t herself before I’ve had a taste of caffeine. I put on my clothes and pad downstairs and into the kitchen. Maya and Astrid are sitting around the table, both of them staring at Korrin. He is lying half-naked under the kitchen sink, sweatpants hanging low, bare blue chest gleaming. Every time he moves, the muscles in his stomach flex. My face burns. His tail flicks, the tip twitching with irritation.Astrid grins at me, eyes glinting. “Morning, sunshine. Sleep well?”“Uh—” I can’t peel my eyes off of Korrin. “Yeah. I mean… mostly.” I have to force myself to look away from my mate and pull out a chair. Korrin slides out from under the sink, wipes

KorrinThe world is red, but not with rage. With fear.Sienna is unconscious in my arms. Her skin is burning up, and I know I’m going to lose her if I stay here. My feelings for her are a storm breaking inside my skull. I don’t want her to die. I don’t want to lose her. I just found her!“Stay with me,” I growl, my voice cracking through the night like something feral.There is no answer. Sienna’s head rolls against my chest, limp. Her red hair sticks to the blood on my skin—hers, mine, the vampires’. I don’t give a damn. I hold her tighter, scared to let go as I fight my way forward. The garden is full of corpses. Broken bodies. Twitching limbs.My doing.I don’t remember killing most of them.Just flashes.The first vampire who bit my mate is dead. His head exploded like fruit the moment my scream frequency hit him.Another, I tore apart with my claws on the hand I’m not using to hold Sienna, I didn’t think twice about it since I’m on a mission to get to the front of the house. I
