Bonded with Four Mates Prologue
Country villageAthenas Region“Nadine, remember when I told you that one day we would play hide-and-seek at any time by surprise?” My mom asked, and I nodded excitedly. “That moment came; do you remember the rules of the game?”“Yes, Mom, there are three rules: I have to find the best hiding place; I have to be quiet; and the most important rule is that no matter what I hear, I don't come out until you tell me the code word,” I replied efficiently.My mom smiled, and I felt proud for remembering it all; however, there was something sad in her look, and it made me frown.Something didn't feel right.“You're a very sweet and smart girl, Nadine,” Mom said before drawing a picture on my forehead and spraying me with a spray that had no scent. “What's the code word?”“Chocolate,” I said before biting into the little chocolate bar she had given me minutes before.Mom giggled in such a way that her eyes sparkled with mirth.“What's the other rule?” Mom asked carefully.“I must never reveal o

Part I. Meeting of soulsNadine13 years later...I woke up in the middle of the night with erratic breathing and a racing heart.I had dreamed again of my mother's death, but this time I saw her killed in a much more grotesque way. The hunters had sat her down in front of me and ripped out her heart so that I would suffer.I shook the horrific image out of my head.I brought my hand to my chest and felt the rune of protection.I sighed in relief, knowing that at least I had an advantage over the hunters. After years on the run, I had found a way to more effectively disappear from the map, and that was by sealing my energy trail so they would be looking for a needle in a haystack. It was a trick I learned from my mother when I was old enough to know what she always drew on my forehead after she kissed me.I moved all the time, didn't last long in one job, and used different aliases.I did everything within my power to ensure everyone's survival, especially them.Don't think about them,

NadineIf anyone had told me what was going to happen, I would never have believed him.It was impossible to think that the most beautiful vision I had ever had in my life, one different from the images of terror that always flooded my brain, could turn into some kind of nightmare.Biel looked at me angrily, and I did not respond.The priest took the drawing and looked at it with interest, then frowned.“Who are the other men?” The old man asked, and I said nothing.I had sworn the vision of my mates to secrecy, so I kept my mouth shut tightly and stood up straight. That made Biel and the priest look at each other, then Biel nodded and walked toward the exit, but not before looking at me like I was a serious problem. And yes, I was a problem he shouldn't be dealing with. When Biel left, I let go of my hands and tried to regulate my breathing.“Aren't you going to say anything about this drawing?” the priest asked curiously, and I shook my head. “Then I'm going to tell you who I am and

BielHunting the woman of the prophecy had almost turned out to be mission impossible.We didn't know who she was or what magical powers she had, so we couldn't find her trail. So when the temple gave us clues on how to catch a stripper who was related to her, I didn't hesitate to come up with a plan.I created an intelligence operation with elite guards in the small town of Valkir, the capital of Valter, one of the 3 common areas of Kagolen, the continent where we lived. Once we found the club where the stripper worked, it was a matter of investigating her movements until she finally met the woman of the prophecy.It was a good move on my part, and when the prophecy woman was apprehended, I declared the operation a success. The woman was already hours into her processing; all was going well until one of the operation's guards approached me with a serious expression.“What's going on, Jackson?” I asked him immediately."When the unknown female attempted to flee, I entered her apartment

NadineBiel didn't miss the opportunity to insult me back, and boy, did he do it well.When I saw the others, they were all serious, as if what I had said to them was a sentence. And maybe it was a sentence, but it was just a way to protect them, and if I had to be a bitch to do it, I wouldn't hesitate to hurt them if it would keep them alive.“We don't need to be aggressive here,” said the elf medic who had introduced us. “I think they need a moment to—”“We need privacy, Lu,” Biel answered her in a sweet tone of voice. “Go find the high priest Lion, please.”The blonde elf looked at him earnestly, and I could tell there was something longing in her eyes. That bothered me a lot, more so when she complied with Biel's order as if it was nothing.“Speak up, Nadine; we don't have our whole lives to put up with your tantrums,” Biel said, and I pursed my lips.“I don't owe you anything,” I replied immediately. “The soulmates test means nothing, so I'm not obligated to get involved with eith

Nadine“We're going to give you today to think,” Drago said, and I looked at him in surprise. “You need to clear your mind so we can have a proper conversation. It's obvious you weren't planning to meet us, at least not now. So have a break, and tomorrow we'll talk about the importance of the prophecy. You are the chosen one, but the prophecy goes beyond you; it involves all of us.”Aris nodded seriously and released me carefully, then Connor looked at me doubtfully.“You told us what you want, but now I really doubt that's what you want,” Connor said with the drawing in his hand. “A person doesn't draw someone this way if there aren't feelings involved, and I have a feeling it was years before you were able to perfect these drawings.”I swallowed saliva, and Aris watched me with a frown.“Whatever you do with empathy, don't do it with me,” I asked, and the vampire smiled sadly.“I'm sorry to tell you I can't do that,” Aris said, and I frowned. “My empathy is something that is always t

Part II. First TestDragoLeaving the room had cost me a lot because I knew very well how upset Nadine was. My beast wanted to take her, to take her away from the temple and protect her at any cost.I had learned to be calm and analytical over the years, but my dragon sent that to hell when he felt his mate. She was capable of awakening all our impulses.After being a loveless millennial being, knowing she existed was a miracle in itself.“Your rooms are close to Nadine's,” Lion said, and that gave me some reassurance. “I don't know if you know all about the mating bond, but once mates meet for the first time, the force of attraction will be much stronger; it will be uncomfortable for you to be away from her.”Connor, the young wolf, looked confused, so Aris put his palm on his arm, a clear sign of the trust and intimacy they had for each other. It was strange to see a werewolf and a vampire being friends, but it was proving to be interesting, their interaction.“It'll be okay; we'll a

NadineI woke up with my racing heart.I felt the power coursing through my veins, and terror flooded me as I realized that what I had experienced in the last 24 hours had been very real. However, I could not remember what had caused such an alteration, although I knew very well that it was a nightmare.When I opened my eyes, I wished I wasn't standing on a hill with all my mates watching me with a frown.“Since when do you have night terrors?” I asked Aris with red eyes, and I knew he was too upset. “I'm going to kill them, Nadine. Every single one of them that hurt you.”I frowned, not understanding what was going on, then something in my mind clicked Aris' power, and I looked at him in horror. I couldn't believe it.“Tell me you didn't get inside my head,” I said in fear. “Tell me you didn't see anything.”“I had to do that to keep you from staying upset; I had a hard time feeling your terror,” Aris said unapologetically. “I had to wake you up right away or you were capable of send

DragoI was like a madman on the surface while all my linked group was inside the sea. I could not stay calm without an answer from Nadine, or I would wipe out this island. It was her voice, after hours of waiting, that calmed me down; however, when most of the group destined to complete the mission went down to rescue her and didn't come up as quickly as I thought they would, I despaired again.“They're fine,” Rex said. “You have to trust that.”“Nadine isn't saying anything, and I feel what she feels, and I don't like the anguish I'm feeling,” I said in desperation.“It's because of your own desperation,” Samir said. “You're magnifying what you're feeling, so you need to relax if you don't want Nadine to feel your fear. Don't you think she's not in enough trouble already?”Whether I liked to admit it or not, Samir was right, and it was that which made me soar through the air so I could feel useful looking down from above. Whatever was going on had to be related to the divine object

NadineBiel's automatic response was to freeze the sea serpent.After that, Biel applied pressure on the snake with air magic, and the monster exploded into large pieces that fell on us. That caused the sea monsters around us to shoot bolts of power from their tridents, and Aris sent an explosive slingshot of fire that sent them flying away.Lion started drawing some runes to slow them down.“Why don't they just leave Nadine alone like in Fairy Wasteland?” asked Connor as he created a tunnel of ice using his water power. “The fairies and goblins recognized her as the person capable of manipulating the grimoire.”“Possibly because the curse on the locket must be different,” said Lion.The sea monsters came closer again, so I had the shadows blind them until we could escape through the air bubble.“What do you mean the curse is different? What I think is that they are soldiers from old Crete,” Aris said. “They are described as in the stories; it is certain that they are simply trying to

Nadine“Let the guys know what happened,” asked Aris. “I'm surprised Connor isn't bugging you at every turn.”I closed my eyes and tried to talk to Connor and Drago, but it was impossible; I felt like something had sealed my mind.“I can't talk to them,” I told Aris fearfully. “I feel a mental block.”Aris tried to do something, but couldn't do it, and then his eyes turned red.“What's wrong?”“I can't read your mind. There is a telepathy canceling seal,” Aris said with a frown. “What you don't understand is how the mental connection between mates was blocked. It's probably something doing interference with our brain capacity.”That scared the hell out of me, so scared that I didn't feel it when I stepped out of my body and appeared in front of Biel. He looked at me in awe.“What's wrong, Nadine?” asked Biel.Ale and Samir returned with coconuts in their hands, and when they saw me, they dropped the coconuts.“Astral projection,” Ale whispered. “You can astral project.”I felt confuse

NadineI coughed as I came out of the water.Aris hadn't let go of my hand for anything in the world; that was a blessing because I felt like I was going to drown. And so bad was my discomfort that I couldn't help but throw up everything in my stomach.“You've swallowed a lot of salt water,” Aris said as he lifted my hair so I wouldn't mess it up with vomit. “We need to get situated so we can find a way back to the others.”“We've fallen into a bloody abyss,” I said with annoyance after wiping my mouth. “If we take a good look at this shitty place and the height we fell from, it's possible the others will find us.”The fear of that reality scared me too much.“You can't be fatalistic, Nadine,” Aris said firmly with a frown.“I'm a realist,” I said with annoyance. “This is partly your fault for agreeing to travel with that captain who didn't hesitate to take off when things got ugly.”Aris jerked back as if I had struck him with my words.“I did the best I could to finish the mission b

NadineIt was cold, cold enough for Drago and Biel to put on furs.Connor and I scowled at each other before laughing at our biological advantage, while Aris just slurped the blood he had jealously guarded in the ship's hold. I still didn't really understand how his feeding worked, but it wasn't to my total delight to see him consume human blood.“Don't look at it like that,” Connor whispered in my ear. “It's a natural thing... He's not eating it out of a vein, though.”I looked down at my mate with a frown.“I'd rather remain ignorant as to how Aris' feeding works,” I told Connor, and Aris smiled.“I can explain; it will be exciting to tell you who would be my main source of food for life once I accept reality,” the vampire said before getting up and taking the rest of the blood to the storeroom.I frowned, not understanding the implication.Biel sneered at me, and Connor looked at me with some pity, but it was Drago, bless him, who had the will to put me out of my misery.“Vampires

NadineTraveling on a ship was not in my plans.I knew what it was like to be inside a ship long enough to fear the sea. My mother had moved me from one continent to another as we abruptly moved places as a way to avoid anarchists.It had been a difficult experience, but my mother transformed it into a kind of adventure.I couldn't believe that I was about to continue my own maritime adventure.I wiped away my tears, and Aris hugged me, placing his arm around my shoulders.“What made you sentimental?” the vampire asked, and I sighed.“I spent a lot of time on boats when I was little,” I admitted confidently. “Those weren't very good times because I threw up more than I'd like to admit, but my mother treated everything like an adventure... And now the situation is real in a way I never thought it would be.”“Life is a compendium of surprise, Nadine,” Aris said and gave me a kiss on the head. “I think you're going to be fine. If you're experienced, you'll possibly know where you stand.”

NadineThe day of Ophelia's death had finally arrived.Everyone in the Eclipse Pack was serious and waiting for the retinue that would bring Ophelia to Connor to carry out her final sentence. The pack council was silent at all times, which said a lot about the customs of the place.It was Aris who explained to me what would happen and the protocol that would unfold.“Because of the great damage Ophelia caused to the pack, all pack members are to report to the main square to pay honors to the Alpha's family and remember the memory of the late Alpha, Connor's father,” Aris said patiently. “After that brief symbolic ceremony, they remember what Ophelia's crimes have been and await her arrival. A retinue from the Lunarius council is to bring her to the square and hand her over to the pack honor guard, which is led by Inna. Then the people are going to loathe her; they will do it with force and violence... It's a barbaric tradition, but it's something that has been effective in keeping peo

NadineI went back to bed with the feeling of loss burning my skin.I couldn't help crying, and maybe it was that very thing that made Biel hug me silently, so I went back to sleep inside my dream. What I never imagined was waking up to an icy scream.I opened my eyes in a hurry, and when I focused properly, I saw a woman turning to ashes in front of me. Biel was up with a magic weapon in his hand, serving as a shield before me, but with a puzzled expression in his eyes.My other mates rushed into the room.“What's going on here?” asked Drago, and Aris walked over to the ashes and immediately looked at Biel.“Did you see the thief's face?” asked Aris, and I realized it was someone who had touched the grimoire.That fact gave me chills. “She was a thief, and not only that, she was one of the she-wolves who came to clean up the other night,” Biel said, looking at Connor. “You still have rats within your pack.”That sentence shook me, and I got out of bed in fear.“I dreamed about my mo

NadineConnor made the formal request to the Lunarius council to set a definite date: in three days, Ophelia would die under Rose's hands.After that, we would leave to search for the next divine object.Drago and Aris, due to their knowledge of the language of the gods, were the only ones to help me hold the grimoire while Lion, along with Ale and Rex, pulled clues from the books we had read.“I haven't found anything else,” Rex said with a frown as I carefully turned the pages of the grimoire. “It's hard to do this if we can't touch the book.”Aris and Drago locked eyes for a split second.“Magic is conscious, so we must not tempt it,” Drago said seriously. “We just have to be perceptive with the facts and legends. The key is that.”I looked at my dragon mate with a sad smile and then saw the number in the palm of my hand.I had been so focused on other things that I hadn't realized that time was running mercilessly, and if I got careless, things were going to get out of hand.Aris
