All Chapters of The moon goddess chose wrong: twice: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Enzo Everything about her was a quiet assault on my control.The way her dark lashes fanned against pale cheeks still bruised from battle. The faint rise and fall of her chest beneath the thin hospital gown, the stubborn set of her jaw even in sleep, like she was already fighting me in her dreams. Her scent wrapped around my lungs the moment I stepped into the hospital and refused to let go. It was everywhere, in the air, in my blood on my skin.I had to physically grip the arms of the chair to keep from reaching for her. From burying my face in the curve of her neck and breathing her in until she was mine.I've been without a mate for so long having her close to me was driving me crazy.Rex my wolf was losing what little sanity he had left because of being so close to her, he said he spoke to her wolf, Sky, was kind and calm and he couldn't wait to mark her. I had to calm him down, we were not picking a mate, we might have to reject her if she doesn't agree to our terms of the contr

NinaMy mate was a fuck boy, and he wasn't hiding it. Was this a thing he does normally, entangling himself with the wolves in the pack, he was not different from Alpha Dexter.The hospital room felt smaller the longer Alpha Enzo stayed in it. The antiseptic smell mixed with his scent until I could barely breathe without tasting him. My wolf, Sky, was pacing restlessly inside me, whining and nudging, desperate for the contact I refused to give. Rex his wolf was already whispering sweet nothings through the mate bond, trying to charm Sky into forgiving everything. I could feel her softening the traitor that she was.I kept my eyes fixed on the thin hospital blanket covering my legs, tracing the faint blue lines in the fabric like they held the answers I needed.Enzo hadn’t denied the obvious. He hadn’t even tried to pretend Cassie meant nothing. He’d simply rearranged the truth until it looked almost respectable.“She said you were going to reject me the moment I could stand on my own

NinaThe door to my hospital room clicked shut behind Cassie as Max half-dragged her out and half guided her out. She didn’t look back, Her shoulders were hunched, her mascara tracks carving black rivers down her cheeks, but the devastation rolling off her in waves wasn’t pity worthy because she deserved it. The kind of grief that still believed it had a right to do what she did, she wasn't sorry she just wanted to obey her Alpha.And maybe part of me hated that more than anything else.Enzo had stood there like a storm cloud, arms crossed, watching her leave without a flicker of remorse. When his eyes finally swung back to me, they softened just for a heartbeat before the exhaustion crept back in. He opened his mouth like he wanted to say something reassuring, something that would glue all the broken pieces together.Instead, he just sighed.“I need to speak with Marcus about border patrols. Cassie’s stunt today means word might spread. Stay here. Rest. I’ll be back soon.”He brush

Enzo“She should be in her room,” the nurse repeated blinking at me like I’d asked her the color of the sky.My head spun literally, a sickening three hundred and sixty degree tilt that made the hallway lights blur into white streaks. For one terrifying second, I thought my knees would buckle. A thousand nightmare images crashed through my mind at once, Nina bleeding out in some ditch, Cassie’s manicured claws at her throat, rogue wolves circling a lone injured female, or worst of all Nina simply deciding I wasn’t worth the pain and walking straight out of my life forever because of how nonchalant I was.“How?” The word tore out of me, raw. “How did she leave? She wasn’t invisible. There are nurses and cameras at every exit. Where is She?”The nurse opened her mouth, closed it, then wisely stepped aside.I didn’t wait for permission. I stormed down the corridor toward the security wing, boots slamming against tile. Nurses snapped to attention as I passed, sensing the fury rolling off

NinaThe door didn’t stay shut for long, he left for what felt like an hour, the clothes I picked in my hands.I had barely pulled myself off the floor, legs still trembling, when it swung open again. Alpha Dexter stood in the doorway, shoulders filling the frame, the same cold smile playing on his lips that he’d worn while his claws were at my throat. He had changed into a crisp black buttondown, sleeves rolled to his elbows, looking every inch the composed ruler. As if he hadn’t just threatened to paint my bedroom walls with my blood.“Up,” he ordered. “We’re leaving.”I clutched the towel tighter, voice hoarse from crying. “Where are we going?”He stepped inside without invitation, boots thudding against the wooden floorboards. The sound echoed like a countdown. “The pack house, and we are leaving. Unless you’d prefer I drag you there in nothing but that towel. Your choice, little wolf.”The nickname he used to say with affection now dripped with venom. I scrambled to my feet, ign
