Betrayed by His Mate;Reborn as the Alpha CHAPTER THIRTY SEVEN-Promised Hell
Blaire:I knew Emmett had told me before hand but when Sue summoned me to head into the chamber and serve cups of hot tea, nothing ever prepared me for the gigantic wave of tension and intensity that nearly knocked me off my balance.With my head lowered, I bowed in respect to the higher authorities seated around a huge table. I gently began pushing the trolley, carefully reminding myself not to make a mistake, meaning that I had to keep my darn nerves in control.I felt London's gaze on me the moment I walked in, and when I looked up, our eyes collided, his steel-gray orbs burning with such fervor that it made me suck in a breath and immediately look away, for I feared a heart attack.I tried my hardest to zone out on the conversation going on, not wanting to be called upon later, and drilled about what I might have heard.I began serving from the right end, trying to prolong my encounter with London. I gently served all the way down to a white-haired man, bowing to each Alpha and wh
Betrayed by His Mate;Reborn as the Alpha CHAPTER THIRTY EIGHT -Unspoken tension.
London:The moment she left and shut the door behind her, I exhaled deeply, turning to pin my deadly eyes on my not-so-dearest brother. It amazed me just how boldly flirtatious he could be with what was mine.I watched him with keen eyes, picking apart his elegance to have a peek at his inner thoughts. He smiled at the Alpha, who whispered something to him before turning, his mismatched eyes meeting mine. My lips tilted upwards, with my eyes peering at him with unspoken dislike, and he knew it because he was doing the same.I chuckled before looking away, dipping my tongue to graze my bottom lips, and I shifted my attention to an Alpha that stood, talking about something that I couldn't grasp due to my body being irked by Jax's presence. Why the fuck was he here, and why did he have just a lovely smile while looking at my maid?I rubbed my chin, mildly scratching the corner of my lips a little as my brows lifted a little over my head brusquely in amusement. Not only did I want this su
Betrayed by His Mate;Reborn as the Alpha CHAPTER THIRTY NINE-Being Watched
Blaire"Shut up, Hera!"I couldn't take her endless howls of excitement, as she was only making my anxiety worse."You should be excited. You've caught his attention. Finally, we are no longer invisible to our mate." She smirked.I rolled my eyes at her, seemingly out of the right words that would perfectly convey my message to her."Yeah, well, not like this." I replied.I hugged my knees to my chest, tapping my feet on the bed, trying to calm my disrupted nerves. Even after hours of being far away from him, the goosebumps still lay awake on my skin, my heart was still erratically beating, and my body was incessantly craving his hands on mine like earlier.The tingles remained on my body, the sensitivity in my core building even more as his words rang in my ear. The situation I had found myself in with him wasn't supposed to excite me, but surprisingly, it did. Everything about how it all happened was beyond sexy.The fact that he was in an important meeting...The serious look in hi
Betrayed by His Mate;Reborn as the Alpha CHAPTER FORTY-Uncontrollable Desire
London:I stared at the cloud of smoke hovering above me, tipping my head over the headrest. I puffed out smoke from the cigarette wedged in between my fingers, twirling the slim-lit stick with the corner of my lips tilted upwards.My head bobbed to the music playing from the vinyl record, humming the tune with closed eyes. The index finger of my right hand tapped against the table while I moved my head gently to the beats of the song that I was listening to. I leaned myself off the chair, reaching for my halfway-gone bottle of vodka.I poured myself a glass while I puffed out smoke. I stirred the liquid, downing it in one go, ignoring the burn that I had gotten accustomed to, bringing the cigarette to my lips to steal a drag.I glanced at the little clock that sat on the nightstand beside my bed, chuckling because she was so fucking late. I had told her 10 p.m. on the dot, and what was the time? 10-fucking-32pm.I let the smoke escape from the corner of my room as the memory of findi
Betrayed by His Mate;Reborn as the Alpha CHAPTER FORTY ONE-Shudders
Blaire:His hand around my throat had me gasping at the heat he exuded. I raised my eyes to peek at him through my lashes, my eyes misting as his eyes bore into mine with intensity.His lips gradually tilted up in a smile I knew better than to believe was harmless. London was a textbook example of harm in human form. His dark hair skimmed his face, smoke floating past his face, intent eyes locked on like a lion fixated on his food, a naked chest that had muscles toned to perfection with a tattoo peering at me, a sharpened V-line that led to loose, hanging sweatpants... This situation looked every bit as dangerous as he did.I gulped as his hand slightly tightened around my neck and his knee gently rubbed against mine, making need flow through my veins and soliciting a reaction to the desire that was guaranteed to burn me.His pearly whites shone as they peeked from his lips, adding a glow to the dimly lit room. His fingers trailed down my cheeks, gently raising them to cage me. I was
Betrayed by His Mate;Reborn as the Alpha Perceived Secrets
London:Some might describe me as a cruel being, and I honestly couldn't give a fuck about it, but when she pinned my hard member with a look that screamed cruel and wicked, it made me want to chuckle. I guessed every part of me had ruthlessness embedded in it.She really wasn't supposed to be that surprised; it was as if she was wondering how I was able to fit into her tight cunt the very first time, and believe me when I say, it wasn't an easy task stretching her out, but I relished every minute of easing into her depths.Fuck, just the mere thought of it was making me twitch, and it was funny how her lips quivered and her eyes widened even more as she watched it spasm.She gulped before trying to keep under control her ragged breaths, and I hated to be the one to tell her that it was going to be of no use because once she took it in, there'd be more than just hard breaths. Her lips were red and swollen, and the hickies on her neck made my lips tilt in satisfaction.I smoked with my
Betrayed by His Mate;Reborn as the Alpha At a Loss for Words
London:I stared at her, running my eyes down the length of her relaxed body. She looked so fucking peaceful, it was almost infectious. The dull marks of my fingers digging into her skin and her hickies glowed on her skin, making an inexplicable feeling of satisfaction and pride sit in my heart.I gawked at me, hand wrapped around her, keeping her against my skin, and swallowed with a deep sigh. I had no idea why I had ended up cuddling her after I had tired her out, nor why having her so close to me infected me with her peace. I was at a loss for words to explain why I had no nightmares last night. For the first time in a long while, I felt the wolfsbane in my system as unneeded because I felt so much peace last night that it scared me.It felt too good to be true.The dream I had yesterday intensified my fear even further. In it, I saw a little boy and girl, including her, and we sat in the green grass, staring at the sun set with our hands intertwined, her head on my shoulder, and
Betrayed by His Mate;Reborn as the Alpha Lost in Thought
Blaire:I shut the door and waddled frantically to my bed. My body was aching, but nothing compared to the raw soreness that existed in between my legs. He really did fuck me mercilessly; I couldn't count how many times my body shook underneath him, my hands tugging on the restraints.I could still feel his hand around my neck as he choked me while ruthlessly pounding into me, and I knew there'd be marks on my body, especially my neck.I dropped myself on the bed, running my hands over my belly. My babies seemed fine, but I wondered what would have happened had he continued. I remember passing out at some point and waking up to find eyes staring at me, but then I slept off again. I was too used up, and I had lost my voice curtsey of screaming all night long.My body shook as I recalled those dangerous eyes, trembling as I remembered him growling at me. I was used to witnessing London's silent anger, but today was something entirely different.That wasn't just anger; it was resentment p

London I stared out the window as my fingers slowly worked to clasp the buttons of my crisp white dress shirt. I snapped my attention back to the present when I felt my mate's gentle touch glide over the wide expanse of my shoulder.I smiled, brushing my hair back and turning to face her smiling face. Eighteen years, and she didn't look a day older than twenty-five—the most beautiful woman I had ever laid eyes on.“Here, I'll help with your tie,” she murmured, starting the knot around my neck, and I could only stare down at her like a lovesick puppy. She looked even more beautiful today, if that were even possible. Her dark hair was curled to perfection, the black shimmering gown accentuated her curves, and the thigh-high slit revealed slender, long legs that I imagined putting over my shoulder while doing wicked things to her.I groaned at the thought, pulling her chin up so our eyes met. Even in those heels, she was still a midget compared to me.“We should just ditch the party and
Betrayed by His Mate;Reborn as the Alpha New Beginnings
London I stared in pure boredom at the bunch of Alphas seated at the oval table in the board room on the left wing. As I watched them tearing at each other's throats about who was supposed to have more territory than the other, I seriously began to regret my decision of each Alpha of the Four Kingdoms being independent of his own affairs, a treaty I signed of not interfering unless in dire situations like a war. Reece and I exchanged a glance, and he shrugged before returning his attention to the arguing Alphas. It seemed I would have to step in and stop their pointless fights once again. “Gentlemen,” I called, trying to gain their attention, but when that didn't work, I banged a fist against the table, and that did the trick as they all stopped their bickering to give me full attention. “Now that I have all your attention, can we wrap this up? I have a pregnant wife that needs me.” I spoke through gritted teeth, my eyes twitching as they all fidgeted in their seats. “Thank y

Blaire White I opened my eyes to a dark, damp cell that reeked with the stench of blood and death. I blinked several times to be sure I wasn't having a nightmare, but the rusted bars stared back at me, and the only sound I could make out was of water dripping somewhere.I tried to move my arm, only to realise it was chained to the wall, as were my feet. Looking down, my eyes widened in shock at my very pregnant belly. I began to hyperventilate, my heart beating out of control, when it finally dawned on me that it wasn't a dream after all. Maybe London had only been a good dream, my mind conjured up to keep me sane.“H-hera,” my voice cracked as I tried reaching out to my wolf but received no answer.I tried over and over again with no success, wailing over the feeling of emptiness that overcame me.I shivered when I felt the temperature drop a few degrees lower, scrunching up my nose as the smell of decaying carcasses permeated the air. I gasped in horror when a hooded figure appeare
Betrayed by His Mate;Reborn as the Alpha Gnawing Fear
London:I sat in silence, leaning back against my swivel chair and staring into space for the last hour, lost in my thoughts. I was still reeling from Fuyu's shocking revelation that shook me to my very core. I was still in disbelief that I was capable of treating Blaire, the love of my life, poorly, as Fuyu had described. Even more ludicrous was his claim that this was our third chance at life. Why didn't I remember any of this if it was true?The way Fuyu's red eyes glowed in regret when he materialised in front of me, I knew none of it was made up. He had retreated to the farthest corner of my subconscious, leaving me to think about what he had revealed. How could I explain any of this to Blaire?A knock on the door snapped my attention back to the present, and I sighed, turning to face the door.“Come in,” I called reluctantly, picking up a random file on my desk to flip through, attempting to distract my wandering thoughts. Freya walked in, shutting the door behind her softly be
Betrayed by His Mate;Reborn as the Alpha His Benevolence
Blaire WhiteThe way London swiftly snapped the rogue's neck sent a shiver down my spine. I had prepared myself for anything, but it was still concerning to watch him end a wolf's life as if it meant nothing, even though the rogue deserved it.More than anything, I was thankful to see that he wanted to try and do things differently. Even Hera couldn't stop talking about how Fuyu adored her; she had been giddy with excitement because he had been quiet the first day we recognised him as our mate.When he banished the traitor Eliza, I felt pride swell in my chest, but I could tell that the pack members were shocked by the outcome—like they had expected him to snap her neck or rip off her head, just as he had done with the rogue.Knowing London could do things differently if he wanted made me want to hold him forever and never let go, but I had to hold myself back and continue watching from the sidelines.There were two other prisoners left kneeling in front of the crowd. A scrawny blonde

LondonI was seethingly mad when Reece's report replayed over and over again in my head. The thought that my pack's covert affairs had been compromised by one of my own left a pungent taste in my mouth.I knew I had to calm down and think rationally before I frightened my mate even more. I could hear her heart racing, and the need to soothe her overwhelmed my senses, helping to quell my anger, if only a little.Although I sensed Fuyu's rage, it was strange that he didn't fight for control to locate and eliminate the traitor. I pushed aside the thought and focused on Blaire, who sat rigidly on my lap, rubbing her arms nervously.Giving Reece an icy look, I spoke through the mind link, "Leave," and he bowed once before exiting, closing the door softly behind him.“My love,” I murmured, lifting Blaire effortlessly and placing her gently on my desk. I positioned myself between her thighs, pushing them apart. Placing my hands on either side of her, I leaned down so that we were at eye leve

Blaire White After breakfast, London suggested we take a walk in the garden so that we could talk and get some fresh air at the same time. He walked silently beside me, his long legs matching my pace, and his elbow brushed against my shoulder, sending sparks down my spine.I inhaled the fresh air, infused with the scent of earth and the fragrance of blossoming flowers, and smiled when I heard birds chirping in the trees. It was like sweet music to my ears, and I felt at peace.“Blaire,” London called my name softly, and I snapped my attention back to him, tilting my head to meet his eyes briefly.“Why did you want to leave?” he asked, his face almost contorting in a pained expression as he waited for my answer. I was at a loss for words, opening my mouth and then shutting it when no words formed. I was ashamed to tell him the real reason I wanted to leave the minute I woke up in his arms, but I couldn't stand lying to him.“When I recognised you as my mate, I was scared because I tho

Blaire White.Nimble fingers combing through my hair and massaging my scalp roused me from my deep slumber. I moaned in contentment as the feeling gently pulled me into sleep's gentle embrace. The musky scent of sandalwood invaded my senses as I slowly became painfully aware of the delicious soreness between my legs.Fluttering my eyes open, I was met with unfamiliar steel-grey eyes that strangely held warmth as he steadily held my gaze. I memorised the most minute details on his face: the curve of his light pink lips, the way his lashes fanned over his high cheekbones as he blinked slowly, the way his dark, wavy hair fell to his strong shoulders. My fingers itched to run through it, to confirm if they were as soft as they looked.His gaze was almost hypnotic, and I couldn't bring myself to look away. The longer I stared at the stranger I had unwittingly given myself to the previous night, the more I realised why he was gazing at me as though I were the most precious thing he'd ever h
Betrayed by His Mate;Reborn as the Alpha A Chance in Hell
LONDONI collapsed to my knees, overwhelmed by an unfathomable pain that scrambled my thoughts and words. A roar tore through me as I gripped my head, attempting to ground myself but failing miserably."What have you done, Fuyu?" I gasped, choking on my own blood as it pooled in my mouth. Miller's voice echoed faintly in the background, but I was too far gone to make sense of it.“It was the only way,” Fuyu whispered from a distant corner of my subconscious.Another scream tore from my throat as I felt my bond with Fuyu being ripped away. He was a part of me, the other half of my soul, and Hayes was killing him, which meant he was killing me too. We couldn't survive without each other, not for long."When I die, Hayes dies with me.” Fuyu's voice sounded faint, his presence in my head slowly fading. At that point, I could no longer feel my physical body; I was consumed by the agony of losing my wolf and friend.Fuyu wasn't just my wolf; he was my lifeline, my constant companion since c
