Alpha Rylan 25
~Dawn "Someone better explain to me what the hell is going on."It's not Kaden's expression that has me worried. He can look as conspiratorial, as evil, as he wants, and it wouldn't surprise me. But Rylan? I'm staring into the blank, vacant eyes of a male I don't recognise, that devilish smile on his face disturbing. It's the kind of smile that admits to the sins I never knew he committed. Kaden shrugs loosely. He doesn't care as he says, "I think I'll give your mate the honour of explaining."I snap my gaze to Rylan. He's looking at Kaden...fondly. The sight makes me feel sick, betrayed, and not because I woke up from death itself. Rylan hates Kaden. Kaden hates me. It was an even circle of hatred that has turned into one thing. Me hating both of them. "You're looking decent," Rylan says, dragging a heavy gaze down my body. It's almost offending. I've seen him do it shyly before, embarrassed that I caught him admiring me. Now, he seems pleased, even arrogant. It's a look I wouldn

~RylanThe way Dawn looked at me hurt. I thought I finally had her. Before this revelation, I fully believed Dawn had accepted a life with me and wanted to try, and not just for Lucy, her sister. Now, I can see the disdain in her eyes, as she regards me, probably contemplating ways to either kill me or escape. "I just don't understand why...why Kaden?" she questions, her voice hoarse as if she's attempting to hide back tears. I don't think I could handle it if she did.I can't stand here and pretend to be the man back in the Purity Pack. He's someone I should be. He wants to do good for all in his Pack, believing with them in the Goddess. Of course, I'm not him. Not anymore. That year without Dawn killed me. It crushed the good part of my heart while I was at my worst, wondering why my mate didn't want me. "He helped me find you," I tell her. I wish it was easy to explain the situation. She never wanted me, but I needed her. Not just so my Pack would have a Luna - which was my excu

~Dawn"That's not an option."There's a glint in Fate's eyes, as he regards me silently from across the room. He leant back against the wall, clearly getting bored since my last response took me a few minutes to muster. I had to weigh up everything. At the end of my line of thought, I had decided that there is no way that could ever happen. Slowly, he stands. My hands clench on the bedsheets in response as I watch him carefully. I won't let any movement go unnoticed, when he is posing an offer like this."What happened to the Dawn who took chances?" he asks, clasping his hands together as he raises a taunting eyebrow. "Was it Rylan who changed you, or did you do that to yourself? Although, I know who is responsible for your sister being left behind in the Purity Pack."I tried not to let his words get to me. I tried. "My sister won't benefit from me having another mate, I can assure you of that," I exclaim. If Fate hadn't meddled in Lucy's mind, she wouldn't want anything to do with

~Dawn"I thought we agreed that you would stay in your room."Rylan stands with his arms crossed over his chest, blocking the exit to the room. I shoot him a deadpan look. He knows very well that me staying in here for the rest of my life so I don't have to face the possibility of finding my other mate. I'm not even sure I would have any sense of mental stability after a few weeks.Plus, I'm curious. "You can't hide from your own fate, you know," I say, which Rylan understands very well, yet is still being stubborn. "He's going to come walking along one day and-""And I'll kill him."I narrow my eyes on him. "Don't be like that."He still doesn't move from where he stands. The man from the Discipline Pack that Mara mentioned has already arrived, and I'm curious to meet him. What if he is my other mate? How would he react to finding out he would be sharing with an Alpha. Not thrilled, I'm sure. Especially since it is Fate's doing."The man is a bounty hunter that used to work for Kad

~Dawn I stare at his hand, unsure of what I should do."Come on," he tempts, pushing his hand out closer to me. I recoil back a single step. No way. He can't be serious right now. Does he understand the consequences if Rylan found out? One of them will die, and with Rylan's temper, I have an idea of who that might be. I turn on my heel and walk back down the corridor, leaving him where he stood, as I said over my shoulder, "don't be ridiculous, we aren't mates. I have one."He knows about what I'm cursed with, but I don't want him to start thinking he truly is my mate. Just because he showed up here out of the blue, doesn't mean Fate decided he would be my mate, even if it does make a lot of sense. But my other mate could be anyone in this world, including Tavish, but the likelihood...The bounty hunter follows me, quickening his steps to match my stride. He doesn't say any more until we found the back door, and I slid it open. "There is always a possibility. I have wanted a mate f

~Dawn If Fate was standing in front of me right now, I probably would have strangled him. There is no way. No way. Kace tried to kill me, and even if it was all apart of Rylan's sick plan, it still mattered to me. Fate has really outdone himself with this one, and not only has it left me speechless, but also feeling stupid. Of course he would pair me with Kace. Just to rile Rylan up. Kace looked mortified. It was close to the look on his face when he was caught trying to shove me out the window by Rylan, but not quite. This look expresses so much shock, I was convinced for a moment that maybe he would pass out. I think I might do the same thing, as I slide my chair back, the scrap of it against the floor drowning within the pounding of my ears. I can feel the rest of the room staring at Kace and I from my side vision, but my gaze is completely locked in his. This can't be happening. I don't want this to happen. The back of my mind decided to pipe up. This is for Rylan's Pack...M

~Dawn I take a moment to absorb the information. Sinful. The only hint that Rylan is gone is his eyes. The depth of the, holding raw emotion that's too unfamiliar to grasp. Like two onyx stones, his eyes are on me, his gaze unrelenting. I've seen that smile before. That's the scary part. "Why?" I breathe, shifting to my feet so I could have some leverage with him. "Why are you doing this?"I don't know anything about Sinful, but already I hate him. I had no idea spoke one could possess the power to completely take over someone's body like that, so seeing it happen right in front of me is terrifying. There's is a brewing anger within me that urges me to launch myself at him, but I've been witness to Rylan's strength. If Sinful can harness that..."You're not going to ask what happened to your precious mate?" he questions, seeming genuinely surprised. He even sounds exactly like Rylan, which sends a shiver down my spine. This is definitely Sinful though...Apart of me can just feel i

~DawnThe moment I could no longer hear Kace's footsteps, I was on my feet. It's not Kace's fault at all. It's mine. I need to get back to my room, because at least there, I can't smell his scent, or even accidently fall asleep in his bed. So, I'll go back, shower, and start plotting a way to get Rylan back. No one sees me on my way back. Once I'm to my room, I make sure my door is closed, before I take some clothes from the drawer, and take them to the shower. I feel so guilty for everything that has happened, my feet dragged, as if shackles were locked around my ankles. What if this was Fate's idea? If I never get Rylan back, then I will be forced by nature to be with Kace. I don't think I could live with that decision.I shower everything off me. Washing my hair, my face, my entire body, I try rid of any ounce of Sinful on my body, wishing my troubles would was down the drain with it. Who even is Sinful? What does he look like when he isn't stealing other people's bodies. Once
