Novel & Cerita The Defiant Mate By Jennifer Francis

Right here and then I wanted to grab her, crush my lips to that perfect taut mouth of hers—I wanted to taste her, feel her, touch her. My mate. Reagan was right. I was in deep trouble with this human woman. “Mate?” She finally scoffed, “I’m no one’s mate!! Whatever you think this is,” circling around her fingers, “it’s done!” “It doesn’t work like that.” “What doesn’t?” “Me staying away. You’re my mate. You’re mine. I can’t stay away until I kill my— “Do it!” She lashed, “I don’t care if you jump off a bridge, or place your head inside a guillotine. I just want you to leave me alone!!”

I silently reached out and made my way to the kitchen, prepared myself for coffee then stood there patiently. Last night's sex made me realize one thing , fighting and being defiant was all useless. My fate was this and all l had to do was to accept it. I had to accept that I was Damien's mate , act like one and move freely in his chambers without causing trouble. Still lost in my thoughts, I stared at the guards outside with cups in their hands. Guards were everywhere and this time I didn't want to be stubborn.

she answered. “I do. He’s never given me a reason not to. Quite the opposite, in fact. Look, honey, I’m not going to tell you that all mates are perfect, because trust me, I know firsthand that they’re not. Your uncle is not my first mate. He’s what we call my second chance mate. Sometimes, when you have the Goddess’s favor, if your first mate rejects you, passes away, or treats you badly, she will grant you another mate. My first mate was not a good man or mate. He hurt me so deeply that when I found your uncle, I was afraid to love him. I was terrified that he would be just like my first mate, but he’s not. My first mate was a cheater. He manipulated me. He happily took every part of me th

“Alex loves me, he is my mate and…” “Didn’t your first mate reject you?” She asked me and I clenched my fists. “You know, Amelia, for someone who has actually been rejected, you sure have a lot faith in the mate bond. Your first mate left you for someone who wasn’t his mate and here you are, thinking the mate bond can keep you and Alexander forever. Pathetic, isn’t it?” She asked me and I couldn’t help but wonder how she was able to say these things without even flinching.

“When Matthew saw Jess, he knew that the mate bond had been severed. It can only be severed if they rejected each other or if Dr. Angus was dead.” “But how did Matthew know that the mate bond was severed?” Leigh asked, and then the answer dawned on her. “Oh, Matthew! She’s your mate!” He nodded grimly, looking at the unconscious woman dying in his arms. I was approaching the gate and I hoped that no one would be dumb enough to come out an challenge me. I was not planning on stopping.

But who was I to judge? "I'm Jennifer, but you can call me Jenny. I'm Esteban's mate." Says the other with the curly hair. Jenny’s voice was very sweet sounding with a hint of Spanish accent in it. She looked cute but sexy in her black, slightly transparent blouse that had strings crossing over her chest in a shoelace style with leggings and shoes to match. I could believe that she and Esteban are mates. They looked like a perfect couple.

She clenched her fists and took a deep breath before she spoke. “If you so-call love her, then you shouldn’t be lying to her, Gabe,” Ari said, turning to me. I saw tears glistening in her eyes. Ari stepped up close, her face only inches from mine as she looked up at me. Her hands ghosted over my body, and even without touching, I could feel the bond between us intensifying. “Whether you like it or not, we are mates, and you will never feel for her the way you do for me. You will crave me as much as I crave you, and it will be excruciating until you man up and claim me as your own.”

he said with a casual shrug, and I felt a strong need claw at my chest. I took a good look at this Lucas that I failed to see, and what was left of the Lucas I grew up knowing. “You knew I didn't do it,” I stated, my own words startling me from my observation. “Of course, my dear Valerie.” He chuckled softly, playing with his fingertips. “You're a dimwit. You can barely do anything right, no less kill my mother.” Lucas said, and my stomach churned. I felt sick. “Why?” I whispered, my fingers trembling and my mind reeling, unease settling deep within me. “You said you were my mate. You said you felt it.” I stumbled over my words from the sickening feeling in my chest.

“You’re gentler than James, and you love me more than James! I want you to be James forever, form a mate bond with me, and never leave me again!” “Impossible! My mate is only—” “You can!” Aden hadn’t even finished before Louise interrupted him. “Mom! My mate is Emily!” “It’s too late. Emily is already gone. If that’s truly how you felt, you never should’ve taken James’s identity in the first place!” Louise sighed. “Our alpha has issued a firm order. If you don’t resolve this scandal, you’ll be expelled. The only way out is never to admit you’re Aden and live the rest of your life as James.

I hear her yell at me and I sit shocked. “Cristina.” I was surprised that she was calling me. But what makes her so angry? She is pregnant. She should not stress herself. “Yes, Cristina. Are you shocked that I’m still alive?” She asks and I don’t know why I will be shocked. I am happy that Alpha Rick didn’t hurt her. “What are you saying?” I ask and she sneers. “Don’t act innocent, I know your true colors. How dare you seduce my mate? You have already gotten your mate. Then why do you still want my mate?” She accuses me and I become shocked to hear her accusation.
