Thalia walked to the porch facing the pool where Brandon was sunbathing on a chair very much enjoying the warmth of the sun caressing his skin, seeing him so relaxed and at ease, Thalia felt a bit awkward about interrupting his rest but as if sensing a presence on his territory, Brandon’s eyes snapped open at first there was a fierce glint in his eyes like he was prepared to lunge at the trespasser who dared to invade his territory but when he saw that it was Thalia, his eyes warmed up and he beamed “ I was hoping you would come to see me, girl”

Thalia smiled, veiling all her doubts and suspicions. She didn’t know if Brandon was playing a game with her but currently, he was the only one who could give her the answers that she needed, as she walked towards him, Brandon’s eyes crinkled even more like he was genuinely happy to see her “ I hope I didn’t disturb you?”

Brandon shook his head “ Nah, you are fine. I was jus

  • Alpha Carter’s Cursed Mate   More than that

    Brandon glanced at the photo “ No, it's not me, it's Cruz. He was a friend of your father so you can take it as he was indeed a bit close to your parents.” He flipped the album and pointed at a photo where Chris was laughing with Cruz, with a wine glass in the hand “they were good friends, who would meet up once in a while. Your father trusted my brother a lot”Thalia couldn’t help but smile as she looked at Cruz’s infectious smile. As she looked through the photos of her parents she noticed Cruz and Caroline glaring at each other, they didn’t look as close as Caroline made them out to be “ They seem to be arguing quite fiercely”“ Yeah they did, my brother had a weird temper,” said Brandon “ He would rather give his time to his friends and the pack than allocate some to Caroline, I sometimes used to wonder why he even mated with her when she wasn’t what he liked.”“ They w

  • Alpha Carter’s Cursed Mate   We will be free,Lia

    After talking with Brandon Thalia decided to go on a run because she had too much on her mind that it was making both her and her wolf restless and at unease. The more she tried to get closer to her past the more it became a mystery to her, it was perplexing at the same time, to her Lydia was a woman of great intelligence and a good mother, the brief glimpses that she got after coming here clearly showed her that Lydia was not such an arrogant and vengeful woman who would harm others for no reason at all but - she shook her head, no, she wouldn’t delve on it anymore.She broke into a sprint and let the cool air whistle past her, her wolf uttered a low whine inside her, she wanted to run too. Feel the crunch of the grass under her paws and the soft caresses of the cold winds but she couldn’t - her playful and sweet wolf was trapped inside her and would stay the status quo unless the curse breaks - if it breaks, a twinge of guilt and heartache greeted her, she

  • Alpha Carter’s Cursed Mate   Running from pack

    Thalia’s eyes snapped open, cold sweat beaded her back. She had no goddamn fucking idea what her mother meant but Thalia was sure of one thing whatever her mother had planned, didn’t work because even years later she wasn’t free - they weren’t free. No wonder Carter had brought her back here, let his entire pack bully her before giving her a little taste of sweetness maybe this was his own f*cked up plan to let lure her in before making her fall and crush her apart.And he succeeded, he slowly but surely crumbled every wall that she had around her heart.. well that wasn’t entirely right either because she never had a choice about letting him in or not, no... Carter had swaggered right in her life, sledgehammered the walls she built around her heart to keep her fragile little heart safe before carving a comfy place in there that solely belonged to him.Now the very thought that he might have done it to see her crushed left a bit

  • Alpha Carter’s Cursed Mate   I know you are hiding, sugar

    Runaway? Yeah right. Thalia kicked the front of the car out of frustration. Because Carter had hardly driven this SUV, it wasn’t sent for servicing like the hummer which was why Thalia was stranded in the middle of nowhere after the stupid car broke down. Thalia looked left and right, she was pretty much the only pedestrian on the road which was good given that she had hunters on her neck and Carter on her back.Thalia shuffled through her duffle bag and she only had twenty dollars and some clothes, these twenty dollars will get her nowhere. She leaned against the car that was parked on the street and tried to steady her breath that was getting out of frenzy as she realized what she had done.She was an idiot, a fucking idiot.Why did she have to choose a car that was hardly used and why in the world did she leave the credit card Carter had given her? Apparently, her stupid pride to take the high road will only push her to her death even

  • Alpha Carter’s Cursed Mate   I will break your-

    Carter was here.“ So now what? Want me to open the door?” Dominic asked looking quite relaxed as if it wasn’t his door that was being banged like he hadn’t paid his rent for months. He continued to stretch out his hand, taking a handful of chips before popping them all in his mouth “ you better think it through girl, because if that hulk breaks my door I will be wanting compensation for it”Yup, a total gentleman his priorities were f*cking straight.“Open the door sugar, I know you are in there” chuckled Carter contrary to his silky, smooth tone that carried a hint of humourless laughter, the banging on the door was like a beast was standing outside yearning for their blood. It was a voice that chilled her to her bones, Thalia closed her eyes, breathing hard. And when she closed them, she saw could feel the anger that was radiating off Carter through the pack link, it was brutally filled with such truculenc

  • Alpha Carter’s Cursed Mate   I am your mate

    Thalia expected Carter to begin yelling the second they were out of Dominic’s door but he didn’t instead he kept dragging her. He remained silent throughout the entire journey to the parking lot, his silence was worse than his rage and as his grip on her hand tightened when she tried to yank it away from his grip, she knew that she was in a whole lot of trouble.“ you are hurting me” she snapped, the silence was biting. She wanted him to scream, raze anything that will show what was going on in his f*cked up head but he was too silent …a bit too silent and that scared her, in her entire plan being caught up by Carter wasn’t in and now Thalia had no idea how to this situation in her favour.In the parking lot, she could see three SUVs parked on the curb, from the many silhouettes that she saw through the windows let her know that Carter didn’t just come to look for her. No, he came hunting for her.. he actually mobilized every

  • Alpha Carter’s Cursed Mate   Sucks doesn’t it?

    Thalia tensed every muscle in her body locked up, she pushed against him trying to get away from him. She needed space but it was just her bad luck that Carter didn’t want to play the niche guy anymore, he didn’t let her go. Her mind was blank ..and she couldn’t think straight, he had gotta be kidding right? He had to be. Only he didn’t look like he was, that determined glint in his eyes clearly told her that he was serious, but she couldn’t believe it, there was no way the moon Goddess would make such a cruel joke right? She shook her head in denial “ No, it ..it can’t be. There is no way.,.. you can’t be”Carter laughed hard, but his grip on her arms was so harsh that he almost crumbled her bones, he jerked her straight and pulled her close until she was looking at him, nor past him or anywhere else for the matter. Her vision was full of Carter and Carter alone “ Sucks doesn’t it? Having a savag

  • Alpha Carter’s Cursed Mate   A date

    “ Carter, wait” Thalia’s spine stiffened when Carter pushed her down on the bed, startled she looked at him but couldn’t hold that gaze for any longer. There was so much anger in those eyes that it burned her skin, she had done not a thing wrong .. that was what she believed all along and that was her only straw, her only belief that held her together against everything and everyone. The marks on her body were enough to make her look like a sinner and those who saw her, knew her believed it.. but Thalia always had a firm belief, that she never wronged anyone, the curse that she got was simply unethical and she didn’t deserve to suffer like this yet now all her credence and faith was being blown up into smithereens.Carter, of course, didn’t wait, instead, he loomed over her covering her body with his“ Do you know how hard it was for me? Hmm, sugar?” He repositioned her head so that she was looking at his face again, right

  • 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.

  • Alpha Carter’s Cursed Mate   Bye little angel

    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

  • Alpha Carter’s Cursed Mate   Renard’s death

    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’

  • Alpha Carter’s Cursed Mate   She will forgive me because she loved me

    “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

  • Alpha Carter’s Cursed Mate   Sacrifice her to summon Lydia

    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
