Beta’s Destined Mate Chapter 23: The Wolf Within.
||Raven||It was night time and I was confused. After my fiasco with Tyler, I have been hearing things out of the blue… things I couldn’t explain. I felt like my subconscious mind was playing tricks on me. But the voice in my head was vivid. It was clear as if another person was living inside me .., only if I wasn’t crazy.“ You are not crazy, Raven…. Is me … your better half,” The voice reappeared in my head and murmured. My better half??… I was going crazy. This didn’t make sense. Nothing in my head made sense. For the sake of my sanity, I closed all thoughts off and concentrated on getting Daisy to bed…..I tacked her into bed and watched as she dozed off. When I was completely sure she was indeed asleep. I kissed her on the cheek, turned off the light, and slipped out of her room.“ Are you ready for our evening walk ?” Zander's voice started me from behind and I nearly screamed. I slowly nodded and walked inside to get a warm coat, since it was a cold night. We exited the house
Beta’s Destined Mate Chapter 24: The Raven Wolf
||Zander|| Raven’s wolf was beautiful. She stood tall at 12 feet and was radiating with power and grace. Her fur was unique, not like anything I had seen. It was black with hues of blue and green. Around her neck and ankle was a golden ring, which looked like just my Lycan fur. Her gold eyes beamed at me as her wolf leaned into me, muzzling the side of my face. " Our mate is special and her eyes are fucking beautiful. I can’t get enough of them, “ Axel rasped out in a dazed. “ When did you become poetic?” I chuckled, “ have you spoken to her wolf, yet? “ I asked him. “ Yes, her name will make your heart flip, Zander “ he chuckled at his own joke.” She is Athena!” He informed me. "Athena," I tested her name on my lips in a murmur….. She drew back as she heard her name and rubbed her wolfy nose against mine. “ You are Raven Wolf !!” Eros exclaimed, as if he was in some kind of entrance. I had never seen him so mesmerized by anyone, apart from his mate, Allison. Raven wolf ?? What
Beta’s Destined Mate Chapter 25: Raven's Decision
||Zander||“ Wait, what? Raven is an alpha ?” I asked. I was shocked. She smirked,“ Bravo !! How do you manage to call yourself her mate when you don’t know the most important thing about her” she snarled.“ You are ignorant. Raven didn’t even tell you about her roots. She isn’t just an Alpha because of her father's bloodline, but also her mother. This says a lot…” “ Excuse me? “ my hand boiled and my knuckles turned pale. Raven tried to hold back Glinda, but she stepped away from her. “ I’m beginning to wonder why the moon goddess paired Raven with a douch like you. You are just like her family. Who turned her into a slave? I can’t stand you, asshole !” “ Calm down Glinda, Zander, let’s find a solution to the problem. Raven is nervous it is and your quarrel is making her feel worse. We are not solving anything with all your blabbing.” Eros growled. My face was red with anger. I inhaled and exhaled, glaring at Glinda, before I settled back into my seat and pulled Raven into my l
Beta’s Destined Mate Chapter 26: The Northern Witch
||Raven||“ I swear to you Raven . The northern witch is one of the good ones . I can vouch for her. I have been working with her for years . She only deals with white magic. “ Glinda ranted out as we walked onto the left wing . Where I have been staying with Zander and Daisy .“ There is no such thing as a good witch “ I replied, with a pointed look . “ Just loyal once , like myself."she sighed, “ please Raven, I can’t live with myself if something happens to you or Jessica, when I know I can do something to help “, she pleaded, and her face turned grey.“ No , Glinda, living with a witch is out of the question. Zander’s pack would be best. My wolf needs to be with people like us “ I bit my lips anxiously, hating the idea of putting my life in the hands of a stranger .“You win, Raven . I am not even going to argue with you, stubborn bitch!” She grumbled.“ You persistent witch!” I resorted.She giggled and threw herself on my bed .“ I’m too tired to lift my own arm and fight with
Beta’s Destined Mate Chapter 27: The Golden Lycan pack.
||Raven||Glinda stayed behind while the rest of us travelled inside the airport and boarded the plane to Orlando. Daisy immediately took the window seat , pointing at the ant-like houses below us. I could see uneasiness on Jessica’s face as she tried to distract herself by playing with a very excited Daisy .I know this was not easy for her as this was our first time on a plane and the agitated feeling of flying in the air would scare the shit out of anyone.Half way through our journey , Zander fell asleep against the window. He was tired . We all were. Travelling from south to north Alaska was not easy.We didn’t have time to rest in between except Daisy, who was comfortable enough to sleep in the car. I secretly wished the window was my shoulder. I wasn’t going to push Zander, she needed time to heal and trust me.Though he didn’t say it out loud, I knew it was a difficult decision he made, going back to the place where he lost everything and had his heart broken . It takes coura
Beta’s Destined Mate Chapter 28: Archives
||Zander||I woke up to Daisy curling in between Raven and me. My heart jumped in bliss, for the first time ever, I had a mate to share a bed with and then spend my life with.I had thought I would relive the heartbreak and pain of losing my mate, Rose, when I returned to my pack, but the feeling was the opposite. I felt fulfilled. It felt so good to be home. I was at ease, knowing that I could control the security around the pack ground and protect Raven with the help of my family and pack.I leaned over and kissed Raven on the forehead. She moaned in her sleep, drawing Daisy into her chest. I chuckled and I looked out to see the sun was down and the moon was up. We slept the entire day. I climbed out of bed to shower. After my evening shower, I took the opportunity to head to my office on the ground floor and catch up on some work.When I arrived, I was pleasantly surprised to see that Theodore had taken care of everything in my absence.As soon as I settled in my chair, I sent
Beta’s Destined Mate Chapter 29: Family and Rogues.
||Raven||I woke up for the second time this morning to Daisy showering my face with kisses. As soon as I opened my eyes, she smiled mischievously.I lifted myself off the bed and kissed her cute little nose.She giggled happily, I turned us over and started tickling her tummy. She laughed so loudly, tearing up.“ Hey love, are you hungry? The pack is about having breakfast. Wanna come down and join us?” Zander’s voice filled my head. The pack?Did he mean the 900 members??“ When you say the pack, how many are we talking about?" He chuckled and had my face flushed.“ I don’t mean the 900 people,“ he said, as if he was reading my mind.“ It’s just the family. The people you met yesterday and Theodore.““ Theodore??”“ Yes, the pack's gamma and also my nephew. “Okay! That can’t be too bad. I can handle his family and two other people.“ Sure that sounds good. I’m very famished." I rubbed my belly. "Do you think you can come around and guide us to the kitchen? “He was silent and ou
Beta’s Destined Mate Chapter 30: Ambush
||Raven||“ Rogues!!” My muscles tensed at his word. I have heard so much about rogues but I haven’t seen one before. I have heard how deadly they could be. They had no human instinct in them.“ Emily, Raven, it’s not safe, we need to go. “ he grunted, ushering us out. Before we could walk out completely, my eyes met three men whose eyes flashed red. They smirked instantly at the fear that danced in my eyes.We quickly got in the car and the warrior drove us out of the mall's parking lot.On our drive back, there was a lot of tension in the car and Emily was quiet. She was no longer talking and laughing like she had been doing all morning. I could tell how they were affected by this rogue. I almost forgot I used to be one myself, when I left my paternal pack.“ So Theodore, you have a mate?” I asked, in an attempt to distract everyone from the rogues.“ No, not yet. I’m still searching “ “ I think she does not come from any of the packs around here” Emily stated.“ I figured much. “

||Raven||“ZAYDEN SLOAN!!! RYDER SLOAN GET DOWN FROM THE TREE!!!!” I screamed at my sons for the one-hundredth time.“Zayden, mommy is mad. Let’s get down, please.” I heard Ryder say in his small baby voice as I rushed toward my best friend.“Hey, girly.” I pulled Emily into a bone-crushing hug as soon as I spotted her in the garden.“Oh my, you are crushing me, Raven. Slow down, girl.” She faked a cough.I laughed, releasing her from my hold.“Well, you can’t blame me, Ems. I missed you so much. How are you doing ?” Concern for her filled my voice.“ Well, apart from being heavy, all swollen, and damn tired all the time. I am fine.”“ Just hang in there, babe. The baby will pop out in less than a month.” I soothed her.She caressed her belly. “ That’s true. Just can’t wait. What are you doing standing here? Let’s join the others, time for the great reveal.”I squealed in joy as we walked to our family. We were having Emily and Zane’s gender reveal party in the garden.It was a big dea
Beta’s Destined Mate Chapter 83
||Raven||Today was the best day of my life.My fiancé, my mate is now my husband and I couldn’t wait to start our lives together and have the family I had always dreamt about.But fate had other plans and my little bundles of joy decided that it was their turn to come into the world.A sharp, stabbing pain rippled through my lower abdomen and when I took a step forward kissing my mate, I felt a warm liquid beginning to flow down my legs.Fuck! Did I just pee on myself? Is the pregnancy so draining that I can’t hold my bladder?However, I felt different.The pee was a lot and too warm. The fluid flowed out of me, down my legs and I felt my little boys squealing and moving vigorously in my womb, probably getting ready for their grand entrance.“Fuck!” I shrieked, gaining everyone’s attention.“What is it, love?” Zander whispered, alert.“ Daddy mummy has peed on herself.”The guests burst out laughing.“ I am pretty sure, my water just broke.”As soon as the words escaped my lips, the g

||Raven||*Three months later*I woke up to a lot of movement and activities in my room. It took me a minute to realize what was going on in there and why these people were there.“She is awake.” Glinda squirmed.All the ladies rushed over to my bed in full excitement when they saw that I was awake.“ Good morning sweetie” Mariam chirped.“ Good morning Mariam and everyone.“ I whispered.“Good morning, it’s your wedding day! Can you believe it?”Emily shrieked, bottle-feeding Aiden.“ I can, Ems. I can !” uttered in a tired voice.I was swollen all over. My baby bump was a full-blown belly.The little beans had doubled in size in months.I felt heavy and I could not see my legs or touch them.Every part of me had grown big, including my breast.It was ready for lactating.My hormones are so out of wack that I am on fire one moment and cold the next.However, the feeling of becoming a mother made my mood even better.“Come on now. Let’s get you fed for your wedding, then a warm, nice sc

||Zander||After six hours of searching, we came back empty-handed. I questioned our warriors and they didn’t catch a glimpse of her leaving the pack, leaving me to conclude that my mate had been kidnapped.Glinda and Emily also came back an hour ago.They couldn’t even catch the scent of my mate at the mall.My heart was breaking into a million pieces as I continued to mind-link her.I felt so weak and suffocated without her.My Lycan beast kept growling in my head and keeping him grounded was becoming hard.The mansion felt empty and my life darker without my little wolf and her delicious scent. I could not smell her.Her scent had completely evaporated as if she was never there.I want to see, Raven. I was desperate to see her again.I was ready to surrender to the enemy just to ensure that both my little wolf and our unborn child were safe.I gripped the armrest of the chair I sat on with so much force that it began to break under my grip. I was absent-minded as Theodore and Zane w

||Raven||Once I was in the four walls of the room, I rushed into the washroom and splashed water on my face.I studied myself in the mirror. My eyes were sunken and dull and I had bugs under my eyes.My hair had disheveled and I ran my fingers through it.I quickly leaned down and tied the small knife I got from Shane’s kitchen around my thigh and crawled back into bed to rest till the wolfsbane completely left my system.I slipped into sleep.An hour later, the sound of the door opening, woke me up from my light slumber.I blinked many times as my pupil focused on the figure standing and leaning against the door.My heart rate slightly increased and my breathing patterns changed.“We need to get it over with. Grab her”, Jerold purred and two men stepped into the room.One was Merlin from the hearing and the other was unknown to me.They glanced at me with a smile playing on their faces.Their eyes flickered with lust and Merlin whispered.“My pleasure, master.”Stalking towards me,

||Raven||“ I plan to punish you for disrespecting my mate, but before that, how about we have some little fun?”he said with so much evil in his voice, his voice was husky but sounded nothing like Zander’s alluring, sexy voice.”“ Don’t - stay away. Don’t you dare touch me”. I panicked. I couldn’t pull back.The wolfsbane was still active in my system and after using all my strength on Jessica.I became vulnerable.“ I have dreamt of this moment for so long it feels so unreal to have you in front of me, breeder.” He smiled and breathed down my neck as his nose trailed down my neck.“ You smell divine..” it took every ounce of strength in me to hold myself back from batting him with my head.But I knew he was dangerous and I would be in so much trouble if I chose that solution. I won’t be the only one in danger. My unborn child will be at risk and I can’t allow that. I would have to buy Athena and me some time to get out of here.“ I can’t wait to mark you. And remove the Lycans mark
Beta’s Destined Mate Chapter 78
|| Raven||SHE TALKED! JESSICA SPOKE!My best friend can talk. My mouth opened in pure astonishment and no word came out. My tongue was stuck. It couldn’t move to start a sentence…“All you think about is Zande.” Jessica hissed. “ Zander this! Zander that! I am tired of hearing his name from you.” Her teeth gritted, furiously.“You are stupid to think that Zander will come for you”, she was thrown into another session of laughter.And I was stricken. What was wrong with Jessica?She was different. Harsh and rude! I don’t recognize the person in front of me. Where did that sweet, nice, and innocent woman go?When did she start to speak? When did she recover her voice?And why was she talking to me like that?I didn’t understand anything. My mind quickly got busy, arranging the scattered pieces of the puzzle in my brain together… from the time I was drugged to now.How did Jessica get here so fast?How did Danica get onto the pack-land easily, without detection?And how was it possible

|Zander.||“Zane!” I shouted. “ catch,“ in one fluent motion.Zane caught the spear and blocked the attack by one of our warriors.Theodore followed right after knocking the air out of his opponent. I spun with one high punch, landing on the gut of my training partner.It was early in the morning and we were training our warriors vigorously for an impending attack from Jerold Black. I have been restless since the last battle, knowing that bastard was lurking in the dark.I felt he was closer than we thought.“Well, that was easy,“ Zane drew everyone's attention to himself after hours of training.“ Good job everyone. I have seen a massive improvement in your skills, so today we will end training earlier than expected,“ he announced, whistling and applause went through the warriors as Zane dismissed them, walking to me.“ Are we ever going to get a real challenge? You and I ??” He asked.And I let out a chuckle, shaking my head at my brother.“ Be careful what you wish for,”“ I must ag

||Raven||Two weeks later.Daisy is dead! Fuck! I was holding the lifeless body of Daisy. Her throat was slit. She was bleeding heavily.Her limbs ripped off her body, lying inches away. I was holding her tightly against my body.Screaming and weeping uncontrollably We were in the woods in the River Moon Clan.With wolves fighting around us.Then I heard the thudding sound of heavy footsteps approaching me.In a daze, I saw Zander, roaring furiously.His was enraged glaring down at me.“You killed her. It’s all your fault, “ he hissed in a deep guttural voice “ All you had to do was surrender to Jerold Black.”“ No “I shook my head.” I love her.I saw her as my daughter “, I sobbed, holding Daisy's cold body closer.“You killed my daughter, bitch. I regret being with you. I should have abandoned you when I had the chance.” Zander's voice was murderous.He looked angry as he took predatory steps toward me and I realized I was his prey.He ripped Daisy's body out of my arms and I shriek
