Thalia felt a flutter in her heart she looked away breaking the gaze, damn there he goes saying things that made her feel like she was pretty. Sometimes she wondered whether his eyes were blind or the blindfold that tied his eyes was, how can he say cheesy lines like that to her. Her! The one who had more curse marks on her body than he had tattoos on his.

Carter didn’t say anything but his hold on her waist tightened further as if warning her not to let her mind drift off to the rocky road of gloom. A sizzle of comfort and warmth ran through her, sure, she was still uncomfortable receiving praises from him. But this was an effort on his part to make their relationship work even though it was something she both loved and hated. Although he drove her crazy sometimes, Thalia didn’t want to be in someone else’s arms than his, anymore.  They will somehow make this work, she knew it- because she has started to care for him. “Don’t think that just

    “ What was that?” Thalia gave him a bored look, she found it pathetic that just because the guy’s life was full of misery he was bent on making everyone else life miserable too.Alex’s eyes narrowed as he hummed. “ You still don’t remember anything.”“ And why does it matter to you? Look, I really don’t care why you are so interested in poking your nose in businesses that are not yours but you need to stop.”Alex looked like he had every intention of walking past her and taking Kim with him without listening to a thing she said, but then he saw Thalia’s protective stance and stopped. “ So you think that Carter is not my business? He is my brother and his business is my business. Same with Kim, so lower your guard and let me have a look at her.”Thalia gave him an indulgent ‘ sure thing’ smile and stayed where she was, Kim was her friend and she wasn’t going to

    .It would be a lie if she said that it didn’t hurt. The way Carter was putting the matter as if she has betrayed him or something, she just wanted to know the past that belonged to her not anyone else, damn it. She wasn’t poking her nose in his business, it was hers! She wrenched herself away from him trying to put some distance between the two of them because Carter being right in her face caused her to feel things she didn’t want to right now. “ I do trust you, but what about you? You just keep repeating the same thing, trying to keep me in the dark when I don’t want to. What are you even trying to hide? Do you know how hard it is to keep my sanity when all of them look at me like I am committing some sort of sin by staying with you! if I have done something wrong then I have the right to know, you just can’t expect to play a dominant she wolf like me by her nose expecting that I will just follow along with what you want, that’s not me.&rd

    “ how much do you know?” Once Carter has scooped her up and brought her back to the bedroom, he handed her a set of dry clothes and a towel and when she finished drying her hair and changed into the clothes he has give her, he went straight to the point as he asked her about the one question she wanted to avoid answering.“ Carter-”“ Don’t even think about bullshitting me darling, I can always give Brandon a visit and find out the truth by either hook or crook, it’s up to you how you want to deal with this matter.” His voice was agonisingly calm as if the person he was talking about wasn’t his uncle but some stranger he can obliterate at any moment.Thalia hated this calm in his voice, it made him painfully detached as if she couldn’t even touch him, she glared at him, “ He is your uncle.”Carter lifted a shoulder, his eyes glinting with an amusing glint, “ Right now, he

    “Hey?” Thalia had been waiting for Carter to return but the latter seemed to be lost in his own world, he hadn’t been the same ever since he returned. That long expression coupled with the dark energy that was rolling off him like black fumes was enough to let her know that something was up, but what exactly, she had no idea about it and Carter didn’t look like he was going to let the thing that was eating him out any time soon either. For two hours she left him alone to brood but Carter was still sitting on the porch with his sixth can of beer and staring at the distance, and it has been bothering her a lot. Carter said nothing, but he did lift his face to meet her eyes and the sober look on his face squeezed her heart. “ Something wrong?”“ Did you go to see Brandon today?” he asked, she knew that he was avoiding talking about the matter that was upsetting him but she still went along and shook her head and when he narrowed hi

    Carter brought Thalia back to the lodge because he hadn’t held back, as the aftermath Thalia fell unconscious. As he laid her on the bed, Carter didn’t want to let her go, she was like melted wax in his arms. Nuzzling her, he pressed a kiss on her temple and pulled away. Once he was done tucking her in, he made his way out of the room and headed to the office, yesterday he was too busy to take care of Brandon now was a good time to have a good chat with his uncle.As he stridden inside the room, Carter noticed that Brandon was already sitting in a chair with his chin propped on his clenched fist. Brandon didn’t look like he was scared or anxious instead he looked bored like he was just going through the motion and taking care of business that he should be taking care of and nothing more, however, Carter was far too experienced to be fooled, that unnatural stiffness of Brandon told him that he was trying his best not to fidget under his alpha vibes.

    Trigger warning- mention of gruesome scene.Waking up to a loud bang wasn’t in her plan. Look, she wasn’t good with surprises, they always came with a heart jolting excitement or terror and Thalia wasn’t good with either of them. When that loud bang echoed around the lodge, Thalia woke up with a startled jolt that did nothing but further intensified the disorientation she was in, blinking her eyes she tried to focus, clearing off the hazy mist that was making it difficult for her to have a clear vision. Thalia looked around, there was no one…the room was the same as ever- dark and silent.Frowning she brushed her hair off her face and stood up from the bed, though she was asleep, Thalia had a feeling that she didn’t imagine that loud sound of something falling. She slowly walked out of the room, heart thudding violently- the lodge was doused in an inky veil of darkness, obviously, when Carter left, he didn’t thin

    Thalia felt her teeth clattering, she couldn’t believe what she had just done. She killed someone, sure the shifter hunter and that jackal who was accompanying him did barge into their lodge, ruined the canvases on which she has been working for so long but that was not a justified reason for her reaction. She killed that human and she might have done the same to that jackal shifter who helped that hunter intrude in their territory if she got her hands on him, what the hell was wrong with her? She trembled and choked on a sob as goosebumps broke all over her arms when she sensed the sticky and gooey blood seep through her clothes, it was so horrifying - she was so horrifying.She couldn’t remember what she was doing and how she even reached there but there was one thing that she could remember - she enjoyed it. She was enjoying the terror in the eyes of that human, the scent of his blood that was clogging the air was freaking addictive, she had clawed him ag

    “Just spit it out, I can see that you want to say something,” After Carter scooped her up and brought her back to their bedroom, he settled her down on the bed. Thalia had been silent and obedient throughout the entire time, he was carrying her in his arms, but her face was scrunched up like she just sucked an entire lemon. This was something, Thalia did a lot when she wanted to ask something but was holding herself back, “ I am not going to get mad.”She peeked through those dark locks and hesitatingly said, “ You promise?”“ I promise that no matter what you say I won’t get mad.” He said picking up a towel as he started to dry Thalia’s hair, even though he gave her his promise Thalia didn’t say anything outright, instead she seemed to be brooding over the entire thing. Carter didn’t rush her and continued doing what he was doing, he knew that though their relationship couldn’t be cons

  • Alpha Carter’s Cursed Mate   Epilogue

    A loud echo of bullet shot echoed in the clearing as Carter pulled Thalia away but it turned out that his actions were useless because even though Cruz seemed to have aimed for Thalia the bullet didn’t hit her but instead hit him. “ No! Carter!” Thalia shrieked as she held Carter’s body that went limp against hers, as she looked at the painfully twisted face of her mate, Thalia was able to feel the echo of her mate’s pain through their mating bond and that was how she found out that the bullet wasn’t just an ordinary bullet it was specially made for putting down shifters with just one shot. Silver bullet dipped in wolfsbane and moulded with together with the holy water, her stomach churned as she felt the acidic sensation Carter was feeling while shaking her head as she cupped his face and crouched down with his head in her lap. “ No, No … No... No.. she tried to use her blood on his wound but it was of no use, she couldn’t heal him no matter how much blood she poured into the wound.

    Thalia waited for Cruz to turn around, once she was sure that he was engrossed with her mother’s corpse and the stupid pentagram thingy, she flicked the pocket knife in her hand. Her gut was burning like someone has doused sulphuric acid on her skin and lit her up on fire, it was a pain like she has never felt before and because Cruz has stabbed her with a silver knife her healing was painfully slow and she was sure that she was going to pass out. He hasn’t just stabbed her for collecting her blood, he has left her to die…blood soaked her hoodie and dripped onto the concrete floor below her. As she moved her hand trying her best to slice the belt off her body, she could feel her wound throbbing with every move until it started to hurt with every breath that she took. Tears filled her eyes but she didn’t stop, it was hurtful but she knew that it will liberate her somehow. One strap down. Two straps down. Once her hand was free, she pulled the straps of the metal table that was tyi

    With a great leap, Carter felt his wolf lunge against his surface as he growled, “ Renard!” Before springing and shifting mid-air as he rushed towards the wolves behind whom Renard was hiding. Every bite and slash of his was filled with anger and vigour, he didn’t care about the blood that was matting his fur or the corpses he was leaving behind, his eyes were on the prize and that prize was none other than Renard’s head. While he rushed towards Renard, the latter’s wolves tried their best to slow him down, they bit and clawed greatly affecting his movements but Carter was like an impending doom that was coming after Renard, nothing stopped him. He didn’t care about the bite on his neck, the claw mark on his hank and nor did he care about the blood that was dripping down his muzzle, all he cared about was reaching Thalia as soon as he could. Pain and blood loss was slowing him down but Carter couldn’t care about that, not when his mate was in danger. Especially, not when this f*cker

  • Alpha Carter’s Cursed Mate   Promised me her blood

    Carter groaned as he banged his fists on the steering wheel of the car he was driving. He tried to stop the ringing and pounding of blood in his ears but then again no wolf would take any obstruction including the one he was facing when he was in a hurry to get to his mate, he could feel the slow churn in his stomach, the pain pounding in his veins like little hammers drumming down on his head, stomach and every freakin pore of his body and here he was staring at Renard and his wolf as they surrounded him and his pack mates. Jake peered out of the windshield as he counted the wolves that were standing outside. “ One, two, three…damn that f*cker brought at least fifteen wolves to take us on, maybe he wants to bury us in an early grave.” “ Like he will get a chance to do that,” grunted Shayne from behind while looking out of the window as well. “ Fifteen, I think I can take them, we have been in a worse situation before haven’t we?”“ We have been,” rasped Dan as he rubbed the back of

  • Alpha Carter’s Cursed Mate   I will make it right

    Thalia saw his madness, that crazy glint in his eyes as he fervently drew the pentagram on the floor with her blood that he has collected, an angry flush crept on her face as she glared at him. “ You can stop with that bullshit of yours you see? Disrespecting my mother, causing her life to become a mess because of you and then digging her body out of the grave, none of these actions says that you loved her. You are the reason, she is dead, all right? You rejected her, when she wanted you to claim her, you didn’t do it and yet you didn’t let her go. You framed her for being crazy and a kidnapper who went mad because you refused her, till the end you painted a totally different picture, all because you wanted to hide the hideous things that you have done, so what are you doing all this for?”Cruz’s head snapped up, as he straightened up and twirled the knife in his hands, eyes hard as he predatorily moved towards her. “ You don’t understand, I never wanted her to die you see? I wouldn’

    “Did you find her?” asked Carter as he rushed out of his lodge that was at the centre of the pack and rushed to meet with Shayne who shook his head. “ I have checked the kitchen, the pantry, even the small shack where she used to stay, I can’t find her.” “ This is ridiculous, where did he take her?” said Carter as he tugged on the locks of his hair with his hands. “ No one saw him leave the territory, his car is parked in the garage so how can he take her away in such a short period of time?” An hour ago, he did not send Brandon to call for Kim, there was no way he was going to send Brandon to call for Kim leaving Thalia alone with him when he was still suspicious of Brandon, so when Kim came back and told him that it was Brandon who sent her to see him, Carter knew that something was wrong with Thalia at once and he rushed to the lodge to see what was going on but there was nothing as if she wasn’t even there at the first place.“ I can’t find Brandon,” Jake whom Carter sent to see

    Thalia’s wolf arched her back as she prepared herself to lunge at Cruz but Thalia knew that it was going to be of no use, so she hurriedly said, “ You killed your brother right? You sacrificed him for my mother?” In her memories, she remembered a brown wolf lunging at her mother to protect Carter when her mother tried to claw Carter’s heart out, if that wolf wasn’t Cruz then surely it was —— Brandon.Cruz jutted his chin out Ashe nodded, “ That’s right, should have kept his nose out of my business. He said he loved Lydia but he crushed her throat right in front of me, he was even going to go after your father and end his misery so that he will not suffer much from the loss of his mate but I got there first, I took care of your father first and then took care of my dear brother, I left him half alive and left another wolf with his face clawed so badly that no one would be able to recognise him. Everyone thought that the body belonged to me and I died while taking care of your father, a

  • Alpha Carter’s Cursed Mate   You ruined her

    Have you ever tried to stuff your brain until you can no longer stuff anything in it? Well, that was what Thalia was going through right now, she didn’t know whether Cruz was saying the truth or not but she felt her brain sort of freeze as she shuffled back and said, “ This is a joke right? This has to be a joke.” “ You can deny it all you want, sweetie but you know it in your heart that it's the truth,” Cruz smirked as he kicked back on his chair. “ You remember it all but you just don’t want to accept it, I know I get that feeling too… I felt the same way when I found out that my mate mated with a f*cking submissive, she could have done so much better than that gutless submissive wolf but she just had to do something to piss me off.” “ Or maybe she genuinely liked him,” said Thalia before she took another look at the basement, she knew that Cruz would not just capture her for no reason, there must be something more to this, now Thalia hoped that Carter would be able to sense her

  • Alpha Carter’s Cursed Mate   Dug the body of her mother out of her grave.

    Thalia’s eyes snapped open as she took in the surroundings around her. The place wherever she was, it was just sad —— the windows were boarded up and there were also panes of wood that were hanging off the doors and if that wasn’t enough, crude insults were sprayed all over the walls. She didn’t have to think about where she was anymore, with just another glimpse of the surrounding she knew where she was —- she was home. The one where everything went downhill. And she wasn’t in the living room, no she was in that one place she hated with all her core, it was the basement. The exact same one where Carter was locked up by her mother, she sucked in a breath and somehow pushed herself to sit up straight, her feet weren’t chained but they were bounded by something, when she looked down, she realised that it was shifter resistant ropes. She muttered a curse inwardly but her curse stuck in her head mid-way as her gaze fell on something much more hideous that was sitting in the corner. Ori
