All Chapters of The Alphas Broken Mate: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

KADENot welcome.Perhaps he wasn’t wrong. I would do the same if an intruder came into my territory unannounced. Probably do worse. But my wolf already felt challenged in this situation. I couldn’t shift. Couldn’t run till this rage I felt simmered down.Part of me knew that. The curse wasn’t making things better. Every feeling I tried to keep under control had been spiraling. Guilt. Sorrow… desire. Rage.I swallowed the whole drink, rising slowly. I should go.The young wolf’s eyes widened slightly. Like he was surprised I actually listened to him. I didn’t. But then I took a step forward and the next thing I knew, pain exploded in my skull, the sharp sounding of glass shattering cut through the tense air.The young wolf’s face fell, fear creeping into his features as he stared past me, to the bartender. I followed his gaze stiffly.He’d thrown a fucking bottle at my head.‘Teach him a lesson’ my wolf urged. ‘Drag him through the fucking mud until his skin is raw.’My jaw ticked as

IRISI was certain I was losing my mind. Ryker has been avoiding me like a plague since that day at the garden. Ash and Kade had been gone for almost two weeks, without a word.And me?I stared at the necklace, wondering why it took me so long to go back there. Selene had answers. I just needed to ask the right questions.My gaze flicked outside my balcony window, expecting Ryker to barge in as usual. He didn’t. I sighed, my eyes slipped to the empty backyard.At least he was able to talk Timothy and the scouts to stop hovering over me.A small smile tugged at my lips before I caught myself. I frowned, straightening in my seat. I held my breath, then touched the necklace.A second passed. Then two. Nothing happened.Frustration sparked in my chest. “It worked the last time.” I muttered to myself, picking it up to inspect.That meant there was some kind of condition I needed. From what I’d gathered. Blood was one thing. And focus maybe?I screwed my eyes shut, my fingers tightening on

My own thoughts taunted me.Her round eyes flashed behind my eyelids.I tore them open, a small frown already tugging at my lip. Annalise finally caught up, wheezing like she had just lifted a mountain.“You’re getting old, Scat.” I said under my breath, trying to push that feeling away.But she caught it.I hated that.“What’s going on in that head of yours?”My jaw ticked. “What happened to minding our business?”Her gaze flicked around us. “She’s definitely taking her precious time to get here. Might as well unburden yourself. Just like before.”The thought that had flooded my mind ever since I laid eyes on her. The unsure but fiery look in her eyes. The way she pushed through even when surrounded by people that saw her as an outcast. I knew something was wrong. I just didn’t know what and if I was being honest? I didn’t want to find out.I let out a sharp breath. “I just can’t wait to be done with this mess.”Her lips twitched. “Whatever it is, I’m sure you’ll get through it. You

IRISRunning through the woods helped. Not by a lot. But enough to ease that weight that pressed against my chest, making it impossible to breathe.Something was wrong.I could feel it. And yet, Ryker was convinced it was all in my head. I let my eyes flutter shut, feeling the night breeze on my skin. A shiver rolled through me as I sank into the grass. I inhaled deeply, relishing that scent. Pine. Wet soil. Clean air. A shuffle made my eyes snap open. I held my breath, waiting and sure enough, it came again, from my right, behind the bushes of wild flowers.My eyes narrowed, senses sharpening as I stood slowly. The shuffling stopped suddenly, my pulse froze. Then something lunged at me, black, fast. “Ahhhh!!!!” I screamed, shielding my face from the attack.I expected blood. Pain. But all I got was a light prickle on my arms. I peeled my eyes open slowly. Then froze, tilting my head to the side.A black cat perched on a tree stump, staring down at me like I was an inconvenience.

ASHThe journey served as a countdown.To whether or not we survived this whole ordeal. Kade hadn’t spoken much since we left meadow grove. Not when we stopped over the pickup spots for the herbs Annalise needed. Not when we camped in the woods.He stayed silent. Like he had taken a vow of silence, refusing to eat or drink anything. It was starting to get to me.“I wonder how you intend on facing the witch when you look like you’re about to roll over and die.”Kade barely spared me a glance, hauling the body of the hybrid over the wall of trees that seperated the woods from the enchanted forest before climbing over it. The air grew thicker, the surroundings darker, like they were warning us to stay out. “I’ll eat when I get my life back.” He mumbled low, taking the lead.Annalise glanced at me with a knowing look. She waited until he was out of earshot before whispering. “He’s spiraling.”My jaw ticked. “I know.”“Will he be a problem?”I paused. “I hope not.”“I can hear you guys.”
