The Warrior's Mate Chapter 13: A chance and wasted
Mia watched me closely, taking in every small movement I made as she sat in the back. How her eyes are locked on me lets me know that something was off.I knew she saw us, me and Eliot. I knewthat the small conversations we had would soon change, and that she would see me differently now. I knew she would no longer think of me as her boyfriend's best friend, but now as someone to be cautious of. Feeling guilty, I left, hurt and tortured, I left. Zero was also acting weird. Was he crazy to growl before humans? Did he intend to tell them our kind? He was stupid. I drove back home only to be sent back to the party’s venue to try and calm the stupid Prince. I heard I was the one who could calm him down. Against all odds, I went back and talked sensed to him, calming his raging wolf even though I didn’t have any idea if I would be able to calm him down. I tried to talk to him, secretly eyeing Eliot who was also looking at me. What was he thinking? Was he also feeling jealous like me?I

Artemis’ Point of View“No way.” My hands were shaking as I read the letter that was for me. This was not the one I expected to receive after going home. “The Prince specifically chose himself to be married to you,” Dad said. “But Dad-”“Mate? No. You don’t have to worry about that.”“Since when did he tell you?” Dad zipped his lips. So Zero already knew this? Since when? When? Was that the reason he was being a dick to me especially when he knew I was mated with a human and that it’ll never be reciprocated? I was his option. Damn him.The next morning, when I saw Zero talking with someone, I immediately walked towards him. Knowing that I was approaching, Zero dismissed his colleague and then smiled at me. “When?” I asked him, trying to calm myself down. “Do I have to say?”“Damn it Zero. Why me?” “Why not you?”Feeling hopeless and frustrated, I ran away."Listen to me, Artemis," Zero called out, running after me as I pushed open the front doors leading to the parking lot. "A

My phone suddenly notified me that I got a message. I read it and saw it was Eliot’s. Jlhe was inviting me for dinner. Zero’s eyebrows furrowed together.He probably knew who was the one who sent me a message so I ignored it.“You know, why don’t you give us a chance?”I heaved a sigh.“You have yet to find your mate. Please don’t deny her. I don’t want to be the reason for other’s devastation. Think about it, prince.”We've already talked about this. And he wouldn’t even listen. “I said I want to marry you. And that’s final.”“But what about your parents? I know they won't agree with your decision as well.”Zero made a “tsk” sound. He wasn’t close with his parents either. I remembered he used to be spoiled by his parents but when he turned to his teen age, he changed. I knew his mother, the Queen, she’s a strong willed woman who never agreed on chosen mates but also a sweetheart who loved her family and people. His father, the King, was also someone adamant on this matter. I heard

Am I the mistress? You read about them or watch them in the news, how they tear apart a couple and it never ends well. You see how they are given tons of publicity and people turn their heads from them. Am I the mistress now? You’re a werewolf. As a wolf, your pack is your family, and when plenty of your pack members are at the same work as you, especially your mate, this is more than just a chapter in your life. Work is when you become that warrior and self sufficient you wanted, you become independent and have countless other possibilities. It's where you make your mark on who you will become as part of the pack. If you're vital....or nothing more than a member. To Eliot and Mia, work is just those for years of your life and then you move on. To them, it's just a memory."Artemis?"Am I the mistress?"What's next for us, Eli?" I ask, leaning my head back against the headrest. He still keeps his eyes focused upon me, turned to face me as we are still parked on the side of the road.

“You’re supposed to be mine!” Zero growled when he appeared after Eliot left. “No, you’re not. Only my mate is where I belong,” I replied. “You can’t take that away from me.”Zero stared at me. Pissed. He stepped closer as I stepped backwards until my back was on the wall and there wasn't space to move away. He caged me wih his arms.“I’ll kill your mate if that’s the last thing I’ll have to do just to own you!”“Zero, you can’t-”“I killed countless human hunters. What made you think that I won’t kill one more?” He said which confused me. “Eliot is not a hunter. What are you talking about?” Zero laughed. “Oh, you don’t know? You can’t smell the hunter in him? What were you expecting when I started to work in that damn hospital huh? Mia is one of the best hunters out there and your mate? He’s the best. He already took countless lives of our kind. What made you think once he knew you’re a wolf you’ll be spared?”“Please don’t you-”“Art, please. You know more than anyone the risk o

"Dad, hear me out," Zero demanded, slamming his first onto the table, the wood shattered as I jumped back. That table was not made of cheap wood. Not at all. It was made centuries ago with the most sturdy wood. "She’s my mate. Artemis might not be feeling it but I swear she’s the one." He confessed. My head automatically turned to him and I was shocked. Was he for real? Me, his mate? Or was this one of his tactics?My parents seemed to be pleased as they were smiling. “That can’t be!”“It is!” Zero said with a serious face. “If I have to marry a she-wolf, then it’s her.” He was trying to remain calm. He's trying not to shift and demand the respect he deserves. Two individuals with Royal blood going head to head was never a good combination. It's a deadly recipe."You listen to me, son," King Oishin growled. "You cannot claim someone just because you’re feeling something. You cannot force anyone just because you wanted it."I watched Queen Aine as she moved to her husband's side, tu
Last Updated : 2024-11-30The Warrior's Mate Chapter 19: Special Force: Bravo
My mother’s usual scowl was ever present as she sat at a large conference table with the rest of the Bravo team, hunter’s special elite group. Being the founder of the hunters association dated many centuries ago, she made the group intact and branched all over the world. My brows were furrowed as I read through a case file she gave me. “Read that,” she said. “The Omega unit will be withdrawing next week. It seems that the wolves have become stronger since the demolishing of the Elders system.” She said, “Royals had taken over and upon further observation, they were leading the werewolf kingdom just like the passed royals. Not to mention they have a secret pack that their sole purpose is to kill us.”I went over the details of Bravo team's next assignment, which was going to be short and simple, but definitely not enjoyable and deadly. "We've been asked by the mother base to take this pack, which is a major threat. They already took three of Omega’s bases. Many hunters were dead. T

Arms wrap around me, a soft kiss placed upon my cheek as a smile stretches across my lips.“Grandma?” I said, I was surprised to see her in the hospital. She was not my biological grandmother but she was a good elderly lady I befriended when I saw in the woods one day, picking up some wild apples. “Sweetie,” she said, kissing my cheeks. “I knew that it was you the moment I saw you standing with two handsome men,” she added, wiggling her eyebrows. “Oh uhm…” I blushed. “This is my boyfriend, Eliot and my le-friend, Zero,” I said as I held her hand. The old lady smiled, eyeing Eliot who seemed to be uncomfortable. With this, I turned my head to the side, meeting his lips and we closed the space between us. Pulling away, I saw the old lady smiling at me. “Ah, it’s good to be young,” she said and then looked at Zero. “But this other gentleman here seemed to envy you two.”Zero just looked at me blankly."Grandma!""You two are just too adorable," she commented, winking playfully at me

The Warrior's Mate Chapter 35: Future
Artemis’s point of ViewBeautiful. The buildings are a traditional style, the bricks more than a century old, the windows long and narrow, and massive trees that shade the sidewalks. If anything, I cannot wait for the next chapter of my life to begin here.“I like this place,” I told Zero. “I think this place will be- hey. Are you listening?” The entire trip was so quiet. Zero has become so quiet and I wonder why. “What’s wrong? Is there any problem?” I asked. “N-nothing. It’s just that I’m tired,” he replied, smiling. “You should have told me,” I said.“Na,” he shook his head. “We need this for our future,” he added, which made me smile."Really excited for all of this," I mention, turning to Flynn as we stand at the top of the stairs towards our new house in the most famous building that overlooks the fresh green grass and tree. "Two months away before the wedding. "Two months," Zero agrees, a smile upon his face as his mother is at the end of the stairs, capturing pictures of
The Warrior's Mate Chapter 34: Here come Hera, Zero's Mate
Hera’s Point of View“You’re a damn abomination!” My brother Alexi screamed at me. Today, I tried hard to fight him, but he was too strong for me to fight even if I’m half-wolf.I was beaten to death. My family hated me, even the hunters.I was gagged and tied up with my arms behind my back. My heart began to pound frantically in my chest at the loss of free movement. This was a whole new level of torture. I used all my strength and freed myself. Just when I thought I had finally escaped, something hit my head and consciousness split from me.I opened my eyes and cautiously looked around. I was still in the forest, although it was almost dawn judging by the light of the sky. I must have been out for hours. I was not alone, but I could not see my brother and I was not sure whether that realization relieved or upset me.I focused on the five people nearby me. I had never seen any of them before in my life.They were clearly large and strong and they moved like fighters. Then there was m
The Warrior's Mate Chapter 33: Heart Broken
Eliot's Point of ViewA week ago…a week already passed since Artemis completely destroyed me. One week and the pain has completely eaten me alive. I could have killed her if I wanted to but I can’t. I love her. I love her so much.“Captain, you’ve been silent for a week. What happened?” my junior, my second hand asks me when he sits besides me.I looked at him and smiled. “It's nothing,” I replied.Mateo smiled at me. “Doesn’t look like it's nothing, Captain,” he said. I heaved a sigh. “Well, uhh I was dumped by a woman I have loved since we were kids,” I said. “She, a… she rejected me or whatever you call it. She said she had already fallen in love with someone else.”Tears fell from my eyes. The pain is too unbearable. How could someone fall in love so deep and when dumped hurts like hell?I didn't make a single sound, and Mateo probably knew how much I was hurting. My back moved up and down, and I knew that crying was the only way for me to ease the pain. I lifted my head to t
The Warrior's Mate Chapter 32: Denied Rejection
I should have rejected him before I slept with Zero last night. Why? Because I had forgotten that when you have sex with anyone not your mate, you feel pain. I put Eliot through pain last night and he has no idea how it happened. I have to reject him. It's not fair. It's not justified. I have to hold myself to the account that I will not be with Zero again that intimate until I reject Eliot.As I grab the sheets from the washer, my eyes widen. I gasp, dropping the blankets as I fall to the floor, a sharp pain in my stomach as I cry out in pain. My eyes squeeze shut, my muscles cramping as I roll onto my side. What a coincidence. What an irony.I have to reject him. I have to not only for him, but for me. For this pain. This pain will go away.I grab my phone, knowing he won't see my text for a while. Unlocking it, my fingers ache as I type away, sending the text to Eliot that should have been sent a long time ago.We need to talk. ASAP.Eliot is about to have his reality changed and i
The Warrior's Mate Chapter 31: Perfect Sin
A blush creeps up on my cheeks, my head cocking to the side as my eyes widen.Zero had playfully bitten my neck. It means something more in werewolf culture than human. It symbolizes someone's want to mate. It symbolizes someone's want to not only mate, but also claim. He wants to claim me as his.He's moving too fast. Faster than you should as a non-mate. Do I mind? A little because it scares me. It scares me how fast we are moving."Are you okay?" He asks, concerned lacing his words as I nod my head."I'm good, just zone out," I explain, offering Zero a soft smile as he nods."Let's head back to shore."Within five minutes we are back, the music loud as the group has a bonfire going. We walk up to the group, mingling with everyone as I greet people I haven't seen for what feels like ages.Green eyes. Bright green and red hair."Artemis," Mia greets, fixing a smile onto her face as I respect her. She's being mature and not holding a grudge when I would. Hell, if I were her, I would h
The Warrior's Mate Chapter 30: Closure
My mother watches me as I head up to my room, closing the door behind me as I don't bother to lock it. I know he's going to try and get in here anyway. He always finds a way. I can hear them downstairs, wrapping up their conversation as I plant myself into my bed, the covers thrown over my body as I enclose my body in the sheets. My hands fly to my mouth, muffling the sobs that follow as my eyes are filled with tears. I did this all because I love someone else. I did this and have yet to reject him.I can hear the footsteps, how he gets closer every second. I now wish I had locked my door, to at least feel him by two minutes and collect myself. Rolling onto my stomach, I close my eyes, my eyelashes wet as they brush against my pillow. The door opens, his scent strong as he enters the room, striding in as if he owns the place, but I know he's here because he knows I'm in a bad state now."Artemis?"I pull the covers down a tad, bunching the ends just below my nose to hide my trembling
The Warrior's Mate Chapter 29: Broke up
"Just talk when you're ready," I whisper, rubbing his back as I feel him shake, his face buried in the crook of my neck. His lips tremble against my skin, his eyelashes becoming damp as they brush against my skin. Something happened and I don't think I'll ever be able to forgive the future king. I hold the youngest prince in my arms, telling him he doesn't have to talk, to just not hold back anymore. I've seen him cry before, but barely much. Emotions are hard to see from this male, but for me, he doesn't hold back."Art," he whispers, taking in a shaky deep breath. "Can we get out of here? Just run away for a few days? Go somewhere to do something?"He's wanting to run from his problems just as I was doing weeks ago and still am."Why? Where will that get you? A short break from reality? You will only return weaker because you know running will let you escape for a little," I explain, trying to not speak too loud, his hold loosening up. Soon, he pulls away, his eyes red as he nods hi
The Warrior's Mate Chapter 28: Love
"Come on," I whisper, placing a soft kiss onto his cheek, helping him to his feet. With an arm around his waist, I led him to my car, helping him into the passenger's side. Getting in, I pull out of my parking space, turning on the radio as a small smile crosses his face with the song that plays. It's a song I've watched him bang his head to and sing along with. He hums to the tone to keep himself calm as I drive, the road lit by my lights as I try to get back fast.As we pull into my driveway, I turn off the car, unbuckling as I lean back in the seat. Turning my head, I met his gentle gaze. "Why?""Why what?" Zero asks, trying not to move his mouth too much as the blood is starting to dry up."Why do that? Why stand up to him if you knew what he would do?"He shakes his head, getting out of the car as I let out a deep sigh. Hopping out, I help him to the front door, telling him to stay silent as we enter. By the time we're in my room, I sit him down on my desk's chair, rushing into
The Warrior's Mate Chapter 27: Confused
"How about I ask you something now," Elior changes the subject. He's not ready to know the truth yet. "What do you think about taking a day off from town and heading to the beach?"It's a four hour drive. I would be with Eliot for four hours one way and going to the beach."I was wondering if you would want to go?"I don't hesitate. "Of course!" He smiles, taking a hold of my hands as we fill the night with conversations about the future and the past. The past holds bitter memories and sweet memories. The future holds bitter memories and sweet memories. "When?""It's in three days.” he informs, leaning back in his chair as I do the same. We look out upon the night, fingers interlocked, "Count me in," I add.Within ten minutes we are back to his car, Eliot helping me in as I kick off my heels for the night, blisters already present. Sometimes being a woman can suck ass. As Eliot hops in and pulls out of the parking garage, we hit a red light, and I take no time to waste as I pull
