The Warrior's Mate Chapter 22: Franco
Mia's point of viewThe scene was chaotic when my unit arrived, with the bodies scattered in all directions. Abigail, my best friend, clicked her tongue. “Seems like you already lost control over him,” she says as she casually sits on the chair and my men start to dispose of the bodies I killed due to my temper. “I have it all going so smoothly. I have him on the tight leash, Abi. But the bastard still left, leaving me broken for that stupid woman,” I said, my voice coats with venom and hate towards Artemis. “Well, I guess you’re the loser then? How can you win when Eliot is head over heels to her. She’s his best friend after all.”“Ah fuck that. I just want that woman gone!”That earns me another chuckle from Abigail who seems to enjoy taunting me. “Ah! I guess faking pregnancy isn’t that effective either, eh?”“Yah and that too! I don’t understand why Eliot liked her. She’s just too plain. Nothing special.”“Well, she is special, seeing your Eliot has been trying to be with her.

Artemis’ Point of View“Wow, this is such a huge forest. The trees are too thick and I can’t barely see the sun,” I heard one of the teen wolves say as she looked up.“This kind of place where vampires roam. They hate the sun. This would be perfect for them to thrive,” said the other one. “And don’t forget about the witches. Ughh. Why does it have to be here?”“Kids these days,” I said, shaking my head."Honestly, I see their reasoning,” Charlotte said as she walked beside me watching the youngsters dislike faces. “That’s why this is the perfect place to train,” I said. “Higanbana is meant to be a warrior and warriors fear no one. We can defend them if those pests appear. Although it's not too common to run into a witch or vamp here because they knew who owned this territory.” Charlotte nodded in agreement, looking out the window to see people around and chatting. By the end of the night Zero will tell all the rules and be on the run for warm ups.For the past week I've gone on a r

"Artemis, mates are important, but sometimes, fate doesn't intend for a happily ever after,” Zero said. “Especially for Higanbana. Mates are nothing.”He's right. But I don't want to admit it. My parents weren't mates but paired, even so they loved each other like mates. They were head over heels for one another. Yet again, Zero’s parents are mates and barely survive to mask their true relationship to the pack before. But I will never take my chance for granted. "I've waited for a mate for so long. And that was Eliot," I whisper, my voice weak as I look over Zeros shoulder, unable to look him in the eyes. “I didn't interfere with him and Mia because I knew he loved her. I respected that and let it happen because he deserved that happiness. But now he and Mia are done and I know he is happy."Zero shakes his head, running a hand through his thick locks of hair as I take in a deep breath. "I love him.""What is love?""What?" I ask, rather confused."It's a simple question," Zero ex

"When did your feelings for me even start because four weeks ago you were taking the girl Jessica home." Jessica, the raven-haired girl I watched him drive her home after their date."She told me to date him." I raise an eyebrow. “Seriously?”“What? Is there something wrong about dating someone who wishes to be dated?”“Playboy.”“I’m not. I’m a gentleman.”I rolled my eyes at him."And then I realized the strong girl before me who loved her mate so much that she would not interfere with her mate because he was happy with someone else. I realized you were strong, kind, brave, and so much more." He pauses. "Jessica never made it to my house. For I could not drop the emotion of hate for Eliot as I watched what he was putting you through."I shake my head, my eyes tearing up. "I am with Eliot and I need to see if we are going to work.""So you'll think about us?" Zero asks, a ghost smile spreading across his face."I'll think about Eliot and I because he is who I am with."Zero's smil

I stop in my steps, raising an eyebrow as Zero walks forward, his thin black tie still on yet loose, his white shirt with the sleeves rolled up, his tan skin on display as I know that shirt hiss a well-worked body. After all, no one who has been with him keeps anyone from the details that he's got a great body. Hell, it doesn't take 20/20 vision to know that."Tell me that you love only Eliot and no one else. Tell me that no one else holds a piece of your heart except him and you'll never have to deal with me again." I know Zero's wolfsbane mixed alcohol limit, and I know he's drunk himself enough to drown in it. All because of me. All because I cannot be unfair to my mate."Artemis?!"I tilt my head to the side as he stands right before me, his fingers under my chin as I look up at him through my eyelashes."You know the answer," I whisper, leaning into his touch as I offer him a sly smile. "You don't need my answer to be sure in the matter." His eyebrows knit together as I know wh

"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

"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

"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 40: Brewing a destruction
Hera’s point of ViewDisappointed. That's what I felt when I saw Zero and the girl getting off from their work and riding in Zero’s car. She’s so beautiful compared to me. I knew she was a full blood wolf while I was not. “Follow the car,” I commanded the driver even if Jessica was protesting not to go. But I don’t want to listen. I wanted to know who this special girl was. I want to know everything about her and Zero. I watched them going to a fancy restaurant. I watched how happy Zero was with her. A wrench of painful fury tugged in my heart as I saw them enjoying everything as if they were mates and Zero’s betrayal, and I struggled to break out of self wallowing and pity. As I secretly followed their car, I learned that Zero took her home. “Higanbana’s location must be kept a secret my lady. We should really head back before the prince learns that we follow him,” Jessica said, fear all over her face. At last, I decided to give in to her and we went home. I lay on my bed as I t
The Warrior's Mate Chapter 39: Rightful Mate
Hera’s point of View“Have you heard the news?” I heard a female wolf telling a word to another servant. “News what?”Curious, I walked towards them secretly. “The prince has already chosen his mate and they are planning their wedding soon.”“Wedding? Chosen mate? Are you stupid? The prince’s mate is Hera. That’s why she’s here and we’re taking good care of her.” “Oh my goddess, Jessica. You are so slow!” Ana whispered. “Please enlighten me. The prince is not a playboy so I assume he chose his mate because he took her here.”“Well not that case. The she-wolf I heard that he’ll be wedded to is from the Higanbana pack. You know, the pack that dedicates their life to war?” “You gotta be kidding me,” Jessica said, unconvinced. “Ahuh. But girl, the royal family has already accepted her to be his mate. According to the prince, he defies fate. He doesn’t believe in fate.”“So what is Hera then to him?”“Maybe he kept her for the purpose of how it felt like to have one? I mean maybe he
The Warrior's Mate Chapter 38: A whore
Artemis Point of ViewThe weather is beautiful at this time in the morning, the dew fresh from the night, the sun barely rising, the chirping of birds heard, and the town barely awake on this summer day. Here I sit, on the patio of the backyard, my mother beside me as we enjoy early morning coffee with one another. As we discuss how my life is about to do now that Zero is my mate, I have so much I have to tell her. Last night I had asked if she wanted an early morning cup of coffee with me to discuss some issues. Starting off the conversation about mating, we are still on the topic, right now talking about my roommate who I will meet in person when I arrive. Mother is in for big news. News that happened three days ago and I've been reflecting off of. For three days my mind has been busy, my eyes unable to rest at night as I can't calm myself down.Zero respects that, giving me time as we text here and there, for the most part a sense of me avoiding him has settled in my stomach. Avo
The Warrior's Mate Chapter 37: Loved
Hera’s Point of View“Y-you’re my mate?” I ask the most handsome man I have ever met. “Yes,” he said, smiling. “You mean-”He gently took me in his arms and wrapped his hands around me. I feel so safe and warm. I have never felt emotions like this. I feel so safe.“Yes and you’ll be safe here, Hera.”When I was a little girl, I always thought that I would be the woman that forsakened because I was a product of human and wolf, an abomination. Never in my life I would find happiness since I grew up being bullied and unloved.I would look around and see happy couples together, getting married and having children of their own. It would make me smile. What could be greater than that? I knew I only wanted one thing... to be happy and loved. Those were just a dream before I met this wonderful wolf, my mate and my man.“How about-”“The hunters? We have taken care of it, love. No one will be able to help hurt you in my care,” Zero said and touched my cheeks. Unfamiliar tingles travelled i
The Warrior's Mate Chapter 36: Unsure
Despite being said, I saw something in Zero’s eyes and the stare I received from the woman I saw. They rejected each other right? But why do I feel like something was off? Or am I just paranoid?I don't know what to do exactly. Do I tell him everything is going to be fine or that he did the right thing? Both of these can be taken to extreme ways beyond me trying to comfort him. My eyes take a short glance to Zero, how he sits beside me, his eyes locked upon the road, the radio off, and it seems as if he's absent. Maybe he's feeling the side effects of rejection and how he’ll feel emptiness, lost as you become vulnerable and your heart aches. Zero got me through much of how I felt, how I was heartbroken and he was beside me, knowing to not take advantage of my vulnerability as he respected my state of being.His jaw is clenched, his hands wrapped tight around the wheel as the familiar landscapes surround me. Just an hour ago we arrived back in the airport we left from, a hour drive b
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
