All Chapters of The Rogue And His Scarred Mate: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Don“Someone had better make me understand what the hell you're all saying!” My voice thundered through the room. “How is it possible that all of you went after one woman, yet you couldn't capture her? What the hell were you doing out there?!”My gaze swept over the battered men kneeling in front of me, their heads lowered in shame. Some had bloodstains on their clothes, while others could barely remain upright.Buck, who knelt at the front, sighed heavily.“It was the Grim Reaper, Don,” he said hoarsely. “He was the one who attacked us. He had Adalia with him. Nearly all my men are dead, and only a few of us managed to escape with our lives.”The Grim Reaper… So, he was the one who had Adalia.I should have known when Jared's lifeless body was discovered. The state of his corpse had made it obvious that the Grim Reaper was responsible for his death. The man had a reputation for leaving his victims in gruesome conditions, and Jared's death had carried all the familiar signs of his han

LyraWhen Kael finally pulled away, his forehead rested against mine.“So, how did the council meeting go?”He let out a weary sigh and shrugged. “The same old, boring arguments. At one point, I actually wondered why I'd agreed to join the council in the first place.”I smiled at him. “Because you're a responsible Alpha?”“That's one explanation.”“Or perhaps because you're one of the most famous and powerful men I know.”His expression changed immediately. The weariness in his eyes shifted to pride, and the corner of his mouth lifted into a slow, satisfied smile.“Is that so?”“Absolutely. After all, my mate is a very powerful man.”Kael leaned closer, his gaze dropping briefly to my lips. “Well, in that case, perhaps we should go upstairs so that I can show my beautiful, fiery Luna just how powerful her mate can be.”My cheeks instantly warmed. “Kael!”He grinned, looking far too pleased with himself.“What? You were the one praising my power.”I smacked his chest lightly, laughing

Adalia“Can't sleep?”A voice from behind me made me jump slightly.Turning around, I found Luna Lyra standing a short distance away. I quickly straightened and offered her a respectful bow.“I'm sorry, Luna. I didn't realize you were there.”“It's all right.” She chuckled softly. “I'm the one who should apologize for sneaking up on you.”She walked over to the balcony railing and stood beside me, her gaze wandering across the quiet grounds below. For a while, neither of us spoke. The night was peaceful, and a cool breeze brushed against my skin as I looked out over the unfamiliar surroundings.After a moment, Lyra turned toward me.“So, you really can't sleep?”A small smile touched my lips as I nodded. “I suppose I'm just not used to being in a new environment yet. Everything feels a little unfamiliar.”“I understand. I felt the same way when I first came here.” She glanced at me. “Would you like to take a walk with me? A little fresh air might help.”I nodded without hesitation.“T

RonanA strange sound caught my attention as I walked through the training grounds.Someone was grunting with effort, followed by the unmistakable sound of fists striking against something solid. Curiosity got the better of me, and I followed the noise, turning around a corner before coming to a stop.A smile immediately spread across my face.Lyra.She was training at the same spot where we used to spend hours practising two years ago. However, the once-empty corner had undergone quite a transformation. Several open wooden structures had been erected across the grounds, with training posts, climbing frames, and obstacle courses arranged around them. There was even a small fighting ring in the middle.It was clear that the place had become a proper training area. But what surprised me most was that Lyra wasn't alone.A group of female warriors stood in front of her, listening attentively as she demonstrated different fighting positions. She moved between them, correcting their stances

PenelopeDamn it! Why wouldn't these girls leave me alone?!Just as I dropped my phone, Aurora approached with her two friends trailing behind her. The sight of them soured my mood even more.Aurora crossed her arms, a smug smile spreading across her face as she stopped in front of me."Well, well, well. If it isn't our little Pennywise. Tell me, why haven't you paid for the exhibition yet?"I forced myself to remain calm, even though her condescending tone was already getting on my nerves."As class monitor, I noticed your name was still the only one missing from the payment list," she continued, tilting her head. "Everyone else has paid, so what's the problem? Having money troubles?"Her two friends exchanged amused glances.Clearing my throat, I straightened my shoulders and tried to sound unconcerned."Of course not. I'll make the payment before the end of the week. There's just been a slight delay with the bank transfer, so I haven't been able to send it yet."I kept my expressio
