All Chapters of BOUND TO MY AWAKENING : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

The night Blackwood Pack was destroyed, I woke with blood on my hands. Fortunately, none of it was real. For a moment, I sat upright in bed, staring at my palms. I rubbed my face and exhaled slowly. It was just a dream. I crossed the room and splashed cold water over my hands anyway. I lay back bare against the edge of the bed, one arm resting behind my head as silence settled where laughter had been only moments ago, and the other teasing the breast of a maid. The women were still there, I noticed two by the left sucking deep into the others pussy, others making eye contact as they moved towards me. “Your highness needs tending to" one said, putting her mouth over my cock. I didn’t stop her, I rarely did. I signalled the other two to join us. I dug deep into her pussy, as the other sucked her breast. "I see you love pussy, you whore” This was funny to me, because I didn't feel anything for them, even as my release surged through my veins. Suddenly, one threw up on me

My hands were still trembling when I stood in the middle of the Croft hut, shards of broken clay scattered beneath my feet. The silence in the room felt heavier than anything I had ever known.Edgar studied me for a long moment before he finally spoke.“You said a wolf killed the Blackwood Alpha and his family,” he said carefully. “One wolf.”I swallowed hard, forcing my voice to stay steady. “Yes.”Liam exhaled sharply from the doorway. “That doesn’t sound possible.”My pulse jumped at his words, and I lowered my gaze quickly.“It happened fast,” I said. “I didn’t see clearly.”That part was true enough to pass.Edgar’s eyes lingered on my bloodstained hands before he spoke again. “Whether you are telling the full truth or not, wolves came searching for you yesterday.” His voice hardened slightly. “That makes you dangerous to keep around.”I felt my throat tighten. “Then I will leave.”“You can barely stand,” Lily said immediately, her tone sharper than I expected.The room went qui

My claws dug deep into the pine floorboards, splintering the old wood as I crouched on all fours. "Kaela...?" Liam’s voice trembled, a frail human sound slicing through the roar of blood in my ears.He stood frozen, his knuckles against the wooden doorframe, his eyes taking in the sight of my lengthened jaw, the thick grey fur sprouting along my forearms.A low, vibrating rumble tore from my chest, a warning from a monster I couldn't control."I'm not going to hurt you," Liam whispered, taking a slow, agonizingly deliberate step forward. The floorboards groaned beneath his boots. "Look at me, Kaela. Just look at me.""Stay... back..." The words scraped out of my malformed throat, raw and painful. "Liam, please... I can't... I can't stop it!""Yes, you can," he insisted, his voice dropping into a steady, grounding murmur as he slowly sank to his knees, bringing himself down to my eye level. He was completely unshielded, his throat entirely exposed to a creature that could rip it out

The heavy brakes of the SUV hissed as the armored vehicle came to a halt inside the bay. Above us, the iron security gates of the Ashen Ridge Citadel clanged shut, locking out the damp morning mist and sealing us inside a tomb of concrete and polished chrome.I didn't wait for the engine to cut. I grabbed the inner door handle and yanked it with all my weight.Nothing moved."The child-locks are reinforced steel, Kaela," Draven said, his voice terrifyingly calm as he unbuttoned his dark suit jacket. "Save your fingernails.""Let me out of this car!" I turned on him, my hands shaking as the lingering hum of that unnatural heat under my skin tried to betray my anger. "You shattered a private homestead! You dragged me out of my home!""I retrieved my mate from a human farm," Draven corrected, his eyes cold and unreadable as he glanced sideways at me. "There is a massive distinction." "I am not your anything!" I spat, pulling myself as close to the far door as the leather seats allowed.

Draven's POV "She tried the barrier three times before dawn," Vance said, setting an encrypted glass slate onto the edge of my mahogany desk. "Your wards held, but the girl doesn't know when to stop.""She isn't meant to stop," I replied, staring through the floor-to-ceiling glass at the sun rising over the Citadel towers. "She’s a wild creature locked in a chrome box. Any feedback from the medical scan?""Nothing standard," Vance muttered, leaning against the doorframe with his arms crossed over his tactical vest. "Her vitals spike every time you move within twenty feet of her door. The bond is chewing through her raw energy like kerosene.""Keep the guards outside her chamber. If she asks for anything sharp, deny it.""She already tried to bribe the washerwoman for a hair pin," Vance offered, a faint smirk touching his mouth. "She’s sharp, Draven. And angry.""She’s a liability, and probably an asset," I corrected, turning away from the window. "Which is why Lyssandra is waiting
