Mated To The Ruthless Alpha
Xavier Blackwood is the man every girl at my college dreams about at night, myself included, but I'd never let anyone know that.
Standing at 6'8 with steel grey eyes, he's a walking dream, but he's also a world-renowned jerk.
Who would have thought that one night, after dragging myself home after doing double shifts at the diner, I'd be jumped by three men...only to have Xavier come to my rescue.
Oh yes, Xavier bloody Blackwood saved my life...but the thing I saw, the CREATURE that ripped those men to shreds wasn't the Xavier everyone knows.
He wasn't human...
He was a wolf, a demon, a creature from myths, and it was the most amazing thing I've ever seen until he attacked me too and knocked me out.
Humans that learn about the existence of werewolves have to die.
...There are NO exceptions.
The Werewolf Xavier saved me, but now I am condemned to death
To make things worse, both Xavier and Axel claim I am their mate
...this can't be good.

Chapter: twenty nineThat's what I wanted to say, but I kept quiet instead. For the first time, he was speaking to me as if he was talking to another person. He wasn't giving me orders or talking down to me, and I couldn't help looking at him.His expression was still one that screamed ‘talk to me and get punched,’ but his voice didn’t hold as much exasperation. However, I didn’t respond. I couldn’t fault him for looking out for his pack’s interests, but I was certain there were other ways for us to handle this situation without resorting to abduction and involving the Council.“Who was the man that came into my cell?” I asked after a while.He looked over at me, a confused look on his face as he shook his head. “What man? I was the only one that visited you in your cell.”Had I been hallucinating or dreaming? No, someone else had visited me.“There was someone else. I know that was real.”The car slowed at a stoplight, and his hand fell away from the steering wheel. “I remember you asking who else would b

Chapter: twenty eight RubyAxel woke me up while it was still dark outside and ordered me to take a bath. He gave me new clothes, told me to brush my hair, and then gave me toasted bread and an apple before dragging me outside.The cold air nipped at my exposed arms and face as we walked briskly to a black SUV. My eyes danced from left to right but it was useless to try to see anything. It was too dark for me to make out anything other than the house we had just left.He opened the door for me, which had been surprising. I had expected him to throw me into the backseat blindfolded and handcuffed with the way he’s been treating me, yanking and throwing me around as if I’m a bag of potatoes. After two and a half hours after driving what seemed like endlessly, I realized where he was taking me.The sun had finally come up, and the world around me was finally visible. We were heading back to the Blackmoon Pack. I could tell that’s where we were going the second we drove past the Witches Brew Tavern Xavier had

Chapter: twenty seven He then turned to Xavier, who was standing beside me and took his hand. “And you must be Xavier.”Xavier shook his hand firmly. "Welcome to our pack, Mr. Crescent.I hope your flight was a smooth one.”“It was.” The side of Olcan’s mouth curved as he spoke. "It was.And if it wasn’t, this was still a…necessary trip.”Olcan turned away to stand by the Enchanted’s side, and Xavier narrowed his eyes at him, then her. He glanced over at me before lookingher way once more. “You’re an Enchanted, yes?”She nodded. “I am–you can see that from my hair. However, not many Enchanteds have white hair, especially young ones.” Her eyes drifted to me as she said that, and this time, I arched a brow in response.From what I understood, the stronger the Enchanted, the more white in their hair. She could sense the strength of my power when I should be nothing but a fledgling, so that comment was a jab at me. She looked to be in her early thirties, so she was young to have white hair as well.“Well!” Ol

Chapter: twenty sixNatalie“Axel’s a fool to think the Council won't try to dissect him as well for having a human mate. Whatever judgment falls onto our pack because one of us is mated to a human will happen to him, too” Xavier said.I watched him as he paced back and forth, his hand on his chin. We were filling Mathieu in on what was happening, and word had been sent to the rest of the pack to stay indoors until their alpha said otherwise.All that really needed to be said was that the Council would be visiting, and all wolves would scatter without being told to anyway. Everyone avoids contact with the Council as much as they can. No one wants their lives looked into, their privacy invaded and stripped down to nothing. That's what the Council likes to do. They feed on knowledge like rats feed on garbage.“Axel thinks he’s acting in the interest of his pack,” I said and Mathieu, who was sitting with his elbows on his knees and his hand over his mouth, looked my way. “But he isn’t seeing the bigger pict

Chapter: twenty five XavierI could hear a bird chirping in a tree a few meters away, but it sounded like it was resting on my shoulder. My ears twitched as another bird answered the first one's call, and I tried my best to tune them out. I focused on the wind in the trees instead as I continued to walk along the path in the forest. I was heading to the cliff where Ruby and I had sat and talked so long ago.No, it wasn’t so long ago, I thought as I shook my head. Only a week has passed with her being missing. While it was only a week, it was far too long for comfort. It felt like an eternity.Natalie has been missing for just as long, and I’m not sure how much longer I can survive not knowing what has happened to either of them. My hands clenched at my sides as my rage began to consume me yet again.Being without Ruby and not knowing if she was hurt or not was taking its toll. My wolf has been clawing under my skin to the point that I’ve woken up with my sheets and clothes ripped by my claws and fangs out

Chapter: twenty four Anxiety had me pacing around the room, sitting on the floor, and climbing onto the table to see through the window, which revealed nothing but endless trees. Soon I settled for sitting around the table, my hunger returning. Compared to the torture I had endured up until last night, I could ignore the growls my stomach was making.I’ve thought about going to sleep a few times in hopes of Natalie returning, but she had mentioned how hard it was to reach out to me. Sheneeded her strength to get to Xavier, so I resisted my impulse to nap just for the sake of talking to her again.My fingers drummed on the stained surface of the white table as I wondered if she had warned Xavier yet.I recalled the night I had been abducted, the bliss that had come before the chaos that is, and a heavy sadness settled on my chest. Xavier and I had laid in the woods in each other's arms. I was starting to feel the bond between us, I think. Just when I began to feel drawn to him, I was ripped away. That nig
