All Chapters of The Alpha’s Fated Mutt: Chapter 11 - Chapter 18

Vaylor was watching us, but his eyes weren’t. “I’ll accept your offer, brother.” He was stoic, but I noticed his face twitch a few times as if he wanted to show disdain for seeing me like this; wrapped around his twin brother’s arm. He cleared his throat before Darren could say anything. “After 5 years, you shall be free of duty. At that point you’ll be able to hold a bonding ceremony with your mate, Mara Silverwane, without fear of death.” 5 years alone? I know it’s worth it to not have him killed over who his instincts chose as his mate, but where am I supposed to be in the meantime? Moonstone Castle’s dungeon? I shuttered at the thought of being ogled again. I’m supposed to leave with a lord to his castle. Not alone, together, as per the Queen’s deal! Which should include the prince! It was as if Darren sensed my uneasiness and asked a question that seemed more of a reiteration as he grabbed his cloth once more. “And Mara Nox, as she will be referred to from this point on, wi

“My brother’s mocking me, it’s more obvious than the damn sun being yellow...” Darren was pacing about by the door inside our room. The bite wounds on his neck were already nearly healed from his abilities when just a few hours prior they were seeping blood and making me worry for him! Now it was if the fight hadn't happened at all and he was only scratched by a scrawny cat instead.He was in his own suit of black and red armor after being forced to dress himself, though he had a dark red cape hanging from his shoulders. A small requirement to being allowed inside the room with me per the Royals. He looked quite dashing and all the more sinisterly noble than before his shift. Something about looking so bad made him look so good, and I bit my lip as he continued; my legs crossed over the other as I sat upon the bed. “You understand what this means, right?” He stopped pacing as he turned to stare at me, almost drilling me with his eyes as he waited for my answer. My wolf instincts had

I don’t remember falling asleep, or how long I’d been sleeping, so when I was awakened by banging at my bedroom door, I was extremely disoriented and quite frankly, startled. Though, I turned over in my sheets to peer out of the balcony windows to try and get a hint to how long exactly I'd been unconscious. But the fact that I could hardly see the mural of crows upon them, it was enough to say I had at least slept past sundown, and the capital was settling down now. I hastily sat up, my blankets flying from my chest and falling over my legs as my heart raced. Who could be bothering us? I reached out to grab him, but my hand fell flat upon the mattress beside me, only landing upon the ripped piece of cloth. He was gone, but I grabbed it to be cautious, clutching it in my left hand with a white-knuckled grip. Despite the loud banging continuing and even beginning to shake my door with their urgency, I instead bolted from bed to look for my prince. But it only took me doing a quick

Alpha Vaylor's POVBefore Mara's AttackDarren looked at me with a smug smirk as he approached me upon his gold-armored black stallion with his red cape blowing in the wind. He was trotting down the dirt path through crowds of people just outside of Valehelm’s walls, two guards trailing close behind him as I requested. But I knew full well the meaning behind his wretched smile, but without a confession, a smirk is not enough to sentence my own brother to death, let alone the head of my guard. Though the Alpha side of me wishes to rip his head off and put it on a stake like the others who dared to ever challenge me. I crossed my arms as I leaned against the side of the stables, the hood of my dark brown cloak covering my now lightened hair. He didn’t know I’d be waiting for him; I rarely ever leave the castle nowadays. But despite me being disguised as a peasant and my black hair now brown, he recognized me almost immediately. Luckily, he was the only one to easily do so. Though, I co
