Cory Matthews Novels & Stories

“But please…just hear him out.” For a moment, the woman said nothing. Her eyes moved between me and Sienna again. But just as she opened her mouth to respond, a male voice spoke from inside. “Mom?” “Who is it?” The woman turned her head slightly. “It’s nothing,” she called back quickly. “Just…” Before she could finish her sentence, the owner of the voice appeared beside her. And the moment I saw him, everything inside me seemed to stop. Cory Matthews. He's a bit older now and the sight of him in a wheelchair made my chest tighten so sharply it almost hurt to breathe.

Evelyn's POV "I, Alpha Kyle Turner, reject you, Evelyn Sanders, as my mate." Alpha Kyle hoarse voice boomed in my ears making me freeze on my tracks, his voice laced with disgust. Crack! A cracking sound resounded inside my body and I felt as if a part of me was forcefully torn and taken away. My wolf howled in pain but there was nothing I could do about it. Tears flowed down my face as the pain became immeasurable, increasing with each second to the point I was unable to tolerate it. I could care less about the gazes on me. I was already used to it.

Her calm attitude screamed confident with a tinge of ‘don’t talk to me’ moody angst. “Oh? You think you have a better shot at her than me, is that it?” Cory huffed. He was quarter back in the football team for the Lions over at the main campus of Columbia University and was basically the most popular guy in this college campus and a player who thrived on it. His dirty blond hair and blue eyes, athletic build and roguish smile helped out a lot of course. Reese shrugged. “You’re just a fuck boy…she looks like she would see you coming and eat you alive.”

Matthew looked like a warrior ready to fight, but his physique couldn’t compete with Thomas’s. “You really don’t want to do this, Matthew. She’s messing with your head and controlling you.” Lancaster stayed silent, his eyes scanning for an opening to strike. They both crouched, waiting for the other to make a move. “It’s time for you to head home, Matthew. Everyone’s worried about you.” Thomas’s calm words were meant to break through the spell, but Aurora’s hold on him was too strong. Thomas attempted to reach into Matthew’s mind, but the witch blocked him.

Here it comes… “I, Matthew Cole Graham hereby strip the title of omega from Chase Christoper Evans due to succumbing to temptation as well as not being able to fullfil his duties” What comes next feels like someone had pulled my heart out of my chest. Immense saddening pain flows through my body and I can feel slow tears finally flooding my cheeks. Wimp… I’m a wimp. The pain wrecks my body and I force myself to not roll myself into a little ball. Matt’s hand is on my shoulder again and he pats it lightly. “Lori, Jack – please leave us” he commands. The two betas don’t say anything and simply turn around and leave. They know the friendship me and Matt shares. When they’re far enough Matt enve

a familiar voice adds and I freeze. When did Matteo get back from work?

Good is already there and conversing with Astrid and Cory, when Cory spots me he leaves the two ladies and come over to me, he seems to be upset “how could you keep something like this from me Ty, I thought we were friends, best friends” “What are you talking about Cory?” “the thing Emma spat up was her heart, which is why Alessa is unconscious, why won’t you let the doctors put them back, to save them, are you jealous? Is that it? You’re jealous I found my mate before you and you want mine to die because you don’t have one?”

“Hi, we haven’t been introduced. I’m Britney Collins. Best friend. Emotional support system. Amateur psychic. And you must be Matthew. I’ve heard so much about you.” I'm thankful for Brit in my life. Matthew gives me a look, something unreadable. “That's me, Matthew Jones.” The other man smiles, easy and confident. “Carter Scott. I’m also the best friend. And his lawyer.” Carter extends a hand. “Pleasure.” Carter adds: “Harper we've met a few times already, hope you haven't forgotten all about me.” “Of course I haven't.” We all sit together. Britney next to Carter, eyes locked like she’s already picturing their sex tape. Me next to Matthew, pretending I’m not vibrating with nerves.

Cory stands up and faces the fountain with his back facing me. “Maybe you shouldn’t have told me we were mates. We could have, definitely, remained friends.” Why wouldn’t he not want to know that we were mates? What is wrong with me that he wouldn’t want what the Goddess has blessed him with? Cory turns and faces me. “I don’t want to ruin your future. You are an Alpha and you need a mate that has strength. I wish that were me, but it isn’t.” Cory drops his head and I can feel Aria getting restless in my head. “There is only one thing I can give you.” Cory looks in my eyes. “I, Cory Williams of the Wild Trail pack, rej-”

“At this point, I just hope that nothing too extreme happened…” ************************** “Fucking hell,” I said, frowning as we were stopped by the firefighters, cops, and ambulances. The fact that they were here alone told me that things have gotten completely out of hand. “Boss…” Mattias, one of the cops said, calling me. He was an alley, and though a cop, he knew not to cross certain limits, and I knew not to throw in too much light on us as not to force him to do so. “What happened?” I asked, and he nodded at one of the ambulances where Elijah lay on a stretcher. My heart dropped as I saw two bullets on his chest. His heart was still beating, but I knew that things were not going to be
