All Chapters of Claws And Blood: A Mate From Beyond : Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

Chapter 1~ELANA~Every year, I prayed for death.I prayed to never see the next. My Mother had disappeared when I was seven years old.She'd gone out on a certain day but never returned and since then, I had just one drive: Find her if she was still alive, no matter what. And if she wasn't, I'd made sure I got to the bottom of her death. I held my book in front of me. I'd scribbled in it, different activities, exercises and herbs that could help me unleash my wolf. “You either provide your mate or… face whatever comes with it!” The Alpha's voice re-echoed in my head and the rage on his face resurfaced. “But… I don't even know how to find my mate, Alpha” My voice cracked at the end even as i tried to keep it steady. “I have never shifted in my entire life” He didn't care. No one did. Instead, he had laughed that day. All he was concerned about, was me getting a mate.Knowing too damn well that a mate wasn't a damn ball I could get from the market. The Alpha had given me se

Chapter 3~ELANA~The clock ticked. It was the pack's annual festival and also the last day of finding my mate. Perfect timing for my shame. Everyone stood in the large open field. Waiting for my shame and fate to be pronounced.My godfather, Father Greyman was nowhere to be found among the multitude of pack members. No one considered choosing me as a mate. Not even a fake one. My knuckles folded when the Alpha mounted the podium. My fate would be decided and it was all going to end in thirty minutes or so. I glanced at the watch on my wrist. 11: 23 PM. I shut my eyes. Running wasn't an option—Alpha Salvatore would find me. If he didn't, Cassian Thorne would find me and I would be no good than dead meat. “Still didn't get enough of my lecture on how to get yourself a mate?" I didn't need to turn before I knew it was Melissa. She was dressed for this occasion—and to watch my shame. Fighting back would be an indirect way to tell her I was ready to be scarred amidst all the s

Chapter 5~ARDEN~Elana’s eyes shot out of their sockets, like they were ready to jump out at any minute. Maybe because of the matebond, but I could feel her heart race… with a pump that didn't feel normal. How was it possible for her to feel fear on an entirely different level? She was so low to the ground and engrossed in fear that if the ground ever opened, she'd probably beg to be swallowed. I scanned the area with my spirit abilities. It was a murder in one of the rooms here… a wolf was being murdered. “It's nothing, at least, not who you think it is." I said, brushing over my shoulder. I'd heard of this Cassian terror who she seemed to terrified of. Not just her, but everyone.I just hadn't met him, but now, a part of me was already more than eager to. Rogues shouldn't be allowed to cause such terror.At least, the heavenly bodies should grant the permission for us to meddle with physical affairs so we'd get to teach them a lesson or two. Elana was still on the floor, f
