Semua Bab Unwanted mate:The Alpha’s priceless Luna: Bab 41 - Bab 50

Damon's Point of ViewI slammed the car door harder than necessary, the sound echoing through the empty parking lot like a gunshot.My hands gripped the steering wheel until my knuckles went white, the leather creaking under the pressure.She'd been thinking about him.While I kissed her. While I held her. While I claimed her mouth like it belonged to me—because it did belong to me, goddess damn it—she'd been thinking about that bastard who'd climbed through her window.The rage that burned through my veins was unlike anything I'd felt before. Hot and viscous, coating my insides until every breath felt like swallowing fire.'Kill him,' my wolf snarled, pacing restlessly. 'Find him. Rip him apart. Make sure he never touches our mate again.'"I plan to."But first, I needed to know who the hell he was.I reached out through the pack link, finding Jace's consciousness easily.'Alpha?' His response was immediate. Professional. 'Everything alright?''I need information. There was an intrud

Sera's Point of ViewTwo more days passed in a blur of rest and recovery.My wolf's presence had settled into something constant and comforting—a companion I'd been missing my entire life without knowing it. She was quieter now, letting me process everything at my own pace, but I could feel her there. Always there.'You're stronger now,' she'd told me that morning. 'The transformation is complete. You're whole.'Whole. The word felt strange. Foreign. Like trying on clothes that didn't quite fit yet.But she was right. My body felt different—stronger, more coordinated. My senses were sharper. I could hear conversations from rooms away, smell things I'd never noticed before, feel the pulse of pack bonds humming just beneath my consciousness.I was a real wolf now. Complete.Except for one glaring problem.I hadn't seen Damon since our last encounter. Since I'd pulled away from his kiss. Since he'd walked out with that cold, distant expression on his face.The memory made my chest ache.

Sera's Point of ViewI couldn't move. Couldn't breathe. Couldn't process what I was seeing.Damon. Kissing someone else.Kissing Wendy.The world tilted sickeningly. Sound rushed in my ears like water, drowning out everything else.I'd come here to apologize. To explain. To tell him that I wasn't choosing Kade, that I wanted to understand the mate bond, that I wanted him.And I'd found this.'Mate,' my wolf whimpered in my head. 'Our mate. Why is he---'She couldn't finish. The pain radiating through the bond we'd just formed was answer enough.I'd felt it earlier. Downstairs in the lobby, waiting for Jace to escort me up. A sudden, sharp pain through the mind link. Like something was wrong.Now I understood. The mind link had been showing me his emotional state while Wendy kissed him.Damon moved suddenly, pushing Wendy away. She stumbled, catching herself on the desk."Get out," he said to her, voice sharp. "Now."“Wh—what?!” she flabbergasted.“You heard me,” he coldly spat.Wendy

Damon's Point of ViewI ended the kiss slowly, reluctantly, my lips lingering against hers for just a moment longer before I pulled back.My heart was pounding. Not from passion---though touching her always set my blood on fire---but from fear.Raw, genuine fear that I'd broken something irreparable between us.Sera's eyes fluttered open, still dazed. Those beautiful eyes that had been so cold and distant all afternoon now showed something else. Confusion. Uncertainty. And underneath it all, hurt that still hadn't fully healed."I'm sorry." The words came out rough. "What I did---what I let happen with Wendy---it was wrong. Inexcusable."She didn't respond immediately. Just looked at me with those eyes that saw too much."I was angry," I continued. "Hurt because you'd pulled away. Because I thought you were still attached to Kade. And when Wendy was there, offering something easy---" I stopped, running my hand through my hair. "There's no excuse. I was being petty and vengeful and stu

Sera's Point of ViewI couldn't focus on anything Ms. Harrison was saying.Friday. Today was Friday.Tonight was my first official date with Damon.My leg bounced nervously under the desk, drawing a curious glance from the student beside me. I forced myself to stop, pressing my palm against my knee to keep it still.'Calm down,' my wolf said, amused. 'You're going to wear yourself out before the date even starts.'"I can't help it. I'm nervous."'Why? He's our mate. This should feel natural.'"Nothing about this feels natural."The class finally ended, and I gathered my books quickly. Holly had taken the day off---something about a family obligation---which meant I was on my own.I headed toward the exit, my mind already racing ahead to tonight. What would we talk about? What if I said something stupid? What if---Someone slammed into me from the side.My books flew from my arms, scattering across the hallway floor in a cascade of papers and notebooks."Oh, I'm so sorry!" I dropped to
