Bound To My Protector Mate Unexpected Rescue
The forest loomed around us, its shadows twisting and stretching as if mocking our frantic escape. My legs screamed for rest, but fear overrode exhaustion. Every snap of a twig or rustle of leaves sent my pulse racing. I clung tightly to the Rigel’s arm, his presence the only thing tethering me to sanity as the enemy’s pursuit grew louder behind us.“We can’t outrun them,” I panted, nearly tripping over a root. “They’re too close!”“Keep moving,” he growled, his voice a mix of determination and fatigue. “I won’t let them take you.”His words should have comforted me, but the sight of the blood staining his side and the unnatural glow radiating from the mark on his chest stole any sense of security. Whatever was happening to him was getting worse, and we were running out of time.Suddenly, the forest ahead of us seemed to shift. A figure emerged from the shadows, cloaked in darkness. My stomach twisted into a knot of dread.“Stay behind me,” Rigel ordered, stepping forward to shield me

The forest was a labyrinth of shadows, its tangled roots and gnarled branches clawing at my every step. I followed Selene, her movements were so precise, like she knew this place better than the back of her hand. Behind me, was Rigel and he was silent, his presence both comforting and unnerving. I could not stop worrying about him and I did not even know why I cared so much for him. Anytime he was in pain it was as though I was in pain as well.“Are you going to tell us where we’re going, or do we just keep trusting the mystery tour guide?” I said, my voice sharper than I intended and I stopped walking.Selene glanced back, her expression unreadable in the faint moonlight. “Patience, Daniel. You’ll understand soon enough.”I bit back my frustration, letting out a heavy sigh. That was always the answer, wasn’t it? Soon enough. Like my whole life was just a series of delays, with me stuck in the waiting room of my own damn story.When we reached a wall of vines shimmering faintly unde

The roar from the shadowy figure still rang in my ears as we sprinted through the crumbling sanctuary. My heart pounded like a war drum, each beat echoing the desperate urgency in Selene's voice.“Faster!” she yelled, clutching her side as we dodged falling debris and leaping shadows that seemed to claw at us from the walls.I tried to focus on my feet, on the uneven ground beneath them, but the sanctuary seemed alive with fury. Every step felt like a betrayal—as if the ancient magic here wanted to pull us back and consume us whole."Left!" Selene barked.We veered into a narrower tunnel. It smelled damp, earthy, with a hint of decay. My lungs burned, and my legs screamed for rest, but there was no time to stop. Behind us, the creature roared again, the sound impossibly close.“This way leads outside!” Selene said, her voice strained."How far?" I shouted, though I doubted I wanted the answer.Her silence was damning.Suddenly, the ground beneath us trembled again, and the tunnel ahea

The forest was eerily quiet as we left the hollow sanctuary, as if holding its breath after our narrow escape. The cool night air did nothing to calm the fire raging inside me. My legs felt like jelly, but I forced myself to keep moving until we reached a clearing.“Here,” Selene said weakly, her hand gripping my shoulder. “Set me down.”I lowered her onto a moss-covered rock, the faint moonlight revealing the blood staining her sleeve. She winced, but her sharp glare dared me to fuss over her.“Don’t you dare faint on me now,” I said, trying to mask my worry with sarcasm.“I’m not the one trembling,” she shot back, though her voice lacked its usual bite.I ignored her and turned to him—Rigel—who leaned against a tree, silent as ever. His face was unreadable, but his body language betrayed him: his shoulders were tense, his breathing uneven. He did not die but rather he came back more injured.“That’s it,” I snapped, the words spilling out before I could stop them. “We’re not moving a

The campfire crackled softly, its warm light casting glinting shadows on the trees surrounding us. The forest had become unnervingly quiet, as if the world itself held its breath, granting us this rare truce from chaos. Each step I took, I took in fear. Never did I think my life would get this chaotic—that every minute would feel like an attack. It felt like a scene straight out of a movie.Selene slept a few paces away, her figure curled against the cool night air, while I sat closer to the fire, struggling to process the storm of emotions brewing within me. I felt so fucked in that moment. I wanted to close my eyes and snap back to my former boring, shitty life, but I couldn’t.I glanced at Rigel, seated across the fire. His face was illuminated by the orange glow, the sharp lines of his features softened by the flickering light. He looked distant, lost in thought, yet there was tension in the way he clenched his jaw and held his shoulders taut, as if bracing for something inevitabl

My eyes fluttered open to the pale light of dawn filtering through the dense canopy above. The world felt heavy, like I was waking from a dream that had seeped too deeply into reality. Every muscle in my body ached, and my arm burned like fire. The mark—it was still there, its dark lines etched into my skin, now more intricate and sprawling than before.“Daniel,” a voice pulled me back to the present. Rigel was crouched beside me, his face drawn with worry.“What happened?” I croaked, my throat dry and raw. Memories of the previous night rushed back—the mark flaring, the pain, the explosion of power I couldn’t control.“You lost consciousness after the surge,” he said, his tone clipped, though his eyes betrayed a tenderness he rarely showed. “We couldn’t wake you for hours.”I pushed myself upright, my head spinning as I took in our surroundings. The campsite was a mess—fallen branches littered the ground, and the fire had been completely extinguished. Selene sat nearby, poring over a

The fire burned low, casting muted light against the uneven stone walls. The night air was heavy, laden with an unspoken tension that coiled tighter with each passing second. I sat on the hard ground, legs folded beneath me, staring at the flames yet feeling none of their warmth. My chest felt too heavy, burdened with thoughts that made no sense but refused to leave me alone. Rigel stood at the mouth of the cave, his stance rigid as he watched the night beyond. Selene sat across from me, her face turned away as if the silence wasn’t suffocating. It felt like we were mourning the dead.I couldn’t hold the words in any longer. They clawed at my throat, demanding release.“I heard you earlier,” I muttered softly, my voice slicing through the oppressive stillness.Selene’s head turned slightly, her profile caught in the firelight, surprise flashing briefly in her eyes. Rigel stiffened, his broad shoulders a dark silhouette against the dim backdrop. Neither of them spoke immediately, and t

The tension in the air was palpable, a fragile thread threatening to snap at any moment. The fire burned low, casting flickering shadows across the cave walls. Rigel’s gaze lingered on me, heavy with an unspoken intensity that made my chest tighten. Across from us, Selene sat in silence, her face unreadable as she stared into the dying embers.“I can’t keep running like this,” I muttered, breaking the oppressive silence. My voice sounded hollow, even to my own ears. “I’m tired of being hunted, of feeling powerless.”Rigel shifted closer, his movements deliberate. Usually, his presence grounded me, but tonight, it felt charged—alive with a tension I couldn’t quite place. “There’s a way to change that,” he said, his voice low and steady.I turned to him, suspicion flickering in my eyes. “What do you mean?”He hesitated, the firelight casting flickering shadows across his face. “There’s a ritual,” he began cautiously, his tone measured. “An ancient one that could strengthen our bond.

Bound To My Protector Mate Trapped in the Void
When my eyes opened, everything was wrong. The world around me was a vast, endless expanse of white—not light, not darkness, just… nothing. There was no ground beneath my feet, yet I stood. The air was thick, pressing against my chest, and my mark burned hotter than it ever had before. I clutched at it instinctively, but the heat only grew stronger, coursing through me like it was alive.I took a step forward, though there was no direction to go. “Where am I?” My voice echoed strangely, as though the emptiness around me was swallowing it.“You are where you’ve always been,” a voice answered, smooth and cold, coming from everywhere and nowhere at once.I turned sharply, searching for the source. At first, I saw nothing. But then the white began to ripple, like disturbed water. A shape emerged from the haze—my shape. It was me, but not me. My reflection stood before me, except its eyes burned gold, molten and fierce, glowing like the weapon’s core.I froze, my heart hammering in my ches
Bound To My Protector Mate The Weapon Awakens
The core pulsed with an unnatural rhythm, a heartbeat that wasn’t mine but felt like it could be. My mark burned, matching its cadence, and I couldn’t tell where my body ended and the weapon’s energy began. The rogue leader stood at the edge of the chamber, his smile razor-sharp as he watched me struggle.“Don’t fight it,” he said, his voice low and commanding. “The weapon recognizes you as its master. Embrace it, Daniel. Take the power that’s rightfully yours.”Every fiber of my being wanted to resist, but the pull was relentless. Waves of energy surged through me, amplifying my senses and flooding my mind with visions—images of destruction, chaos, and power beyond comprehension. It wasn’t just a weapon; it was alive, sentient, and it wanted me as much as the rogue leader did.“Stop!” I managed to shout, but my voice sounded distant, swallowed by the vortex forming around me.Far above, I felt them coming. Rigel and Adrian. Their presence was like a flicker of light against the darkn
Bound To My Protector Mate The Protector’s Sin
Rigel’s silence was louder than any confession. His eyes avoided mine, and the air between us grew heavier with each passing second. The truth hovered just out of reach, a dark thing that neither of us wanted to acknowledge.“You killed them, didn’t you?” Adrian’s voice sliced through the tension, low and venomous. He didn’t look at Rigel as he spoke; his gaze was fixed on me, as if waiting to see how much more I could take before shattering.Rigel flinched, and in that moment, I knew the answer. “It wasn’t like that,” he said finally, his voice rough, almost pleading.“Then what was it like?” I asked, my voice barely more than a whisper. I didn’t know if I even wanted to hear the answer.Rigel took a shaky breath, his hands clenching and unclenching at his sides. “I was young. Foolish. The bond… it wasn’t like ours. It was suffocating, controlling. I didn’t see another way out.”“You’re saying you killed them to free yourself?” I couldn’t keep the disgust out of my voice. “And you th
Bound To My Protector Mate Adrian’s Betrayal
Adrian’s absence had gone unnoticed at first. Between Rigel’s growing tension and my constant struggle with the weapon’s whispers, none of us thought to ask where he was or why he’d been so quiet. But now, standing in the ruins of what should have been our final chance to destroy the weapon, it was impossible to ignore.“What the hell happened?” Rigel’s voice was sharp, cutting through the eerie silence of the lair. He scanned the room, his eyes landing on the smoldering remains of the magical seals we’d painstakingly created to weaken the weapon’s defenses. They were destroyed, shattered into useless fragments.I stepped forward, my heart pounding. “This wasn’t an accident,” I said, the truth sinking in as I took in the deliberate destruction. “Someone did this.”Before Rigel could respond, a slow, deliberate clap echoed from the shadows. Adrian emerged, his face a mix of defiance and guilt, the edges of his shirt singed as if he’d just walked through fire.“You?” Rigel’s voice was l
Bound To My Protector Mate A Night of Vulnerability
The silence between us after my revelation hung heavy in the air, almost suffocating. Rigel’s eyes stayed locked on mine, wide and unguarded. For once, the weight of his usual confidence was nowhere to be found. It was just him—raw, vulnerable, and exposed in a way I’d never seen before.“We’ll find another way,” he repeated, his voice softer now, as if trying to convince both of us. “We have to.”I didn’t respond immediately. Instead, I turned away, sitting down on the edge of the makeshift cot we’d set up in this cold, unfamiliar space. The weapon’s whispers were still there, faint and persistent, like a distant hum I couldn’t shut out.“You can’t promise that, Rigel,” I said finally, my voice barely above a whisper. “Not this time.”I heard the scrape of his boots as he crossed the room, felt the warmth of his presence as he knelt in front of me. His hands found mine, calloused but steady, anchoring me even as the storm inside me raged.“Then let me promise this,” he said, his tone
Bound To My Protector Mate A Forbidden Connection
The weapon’s light flickered, its energy swirling around me like ghostly tendrils, tugging at the edges of my consciousness. The longer I stood before it, the more it felt like something alive—something ancient, wounded, and impossibly powerful.As the glow intensified, a strange warmth seeped into my mark, not painful but unsettlingly intimate, as if the weapon were reaching inside me, searching for something buried deep.“Daniel,” Rigel’s voice cut through the haze, sharp with urgency. His hand gripped my shoulder, pulling me back a step. “Don’t let it in. Whatever it’s showing you, it’s a trap.”I wanted to respond, to reassure him that I was still in control, but my words caught in my throat as a sudden vision overwhelmed me.I was no longer in the rogue leader’s lair. Instead, I stood in a vast, desolate plain under a sky bruised with storm clouds. In the distance, a figure knelt before a swirling mass of dark energy—the weapon in its rawest form.The figure turned, and I gasped.
Bound To My Protector Mate The Rogue’s Plan
The rogue leader’s domain was colder than I remembered, its walls pulsing faintly with an eerie, otherworldly light. As I stood in the heart of his lair, facing him across a massive obsidian table, I couldn’t shake the feeling that the room itself was alive—watching, waiting.“Welcome back, Daniel,” the rogue leader said, his tone dripping with mock warmth. “I trust you’ve had time to reconsider my offer.”Behind me, Rigel’s presence was a searing heat, his tension radiating like a storm about to break. “You don’t have to do this,” he muttered under his breath, just loud enough for me to hear. “This isn’t the way.”I ignored him, focusing on the rogue leader. “I want answers,” I said, my voice steady despite the knot tightening in my chest. “About the weapon. About why you need me.”The rogue leader’s smile widened, his sharp teeth glinting in the dim light. “Ah, the weapon. Such a crude word for something so magnificent.” He gestured toward a shadowy alcove, where the faint outline o

Adrian’s voice rang out like a whip. “You’re going to get us all killed, Daniel.”I froze, his words cutting deeper than I wanted to admit. Around us, the tension was suffocating. Adrian’s anger radiated like heat, while Rigel stood rigid, his jaw tight as he glared at Adrian. Lyra’s absence left a void in the group that none of us dared acknowledge, but it lingered, a silent reminder of what we’d already lost.“I didn’t ask for any of this,” I said finally, my voice low. “Do you think I want to be the reason people keep dying? Do you think I enjoy having to make these choices?”Adrian crossed his arms, his dark eyes narrowing. “Choices? What choices? You’re letting the rogue leader manipulate you, Daniel. You’re playing right into his hands, and you don’t even see it.”“That’s enough,” Rigel growled, stepping between us. “You don’t know what you’re talking about.”Adrian took a step forward, his voice sharp. “Oh, don’t I? You’re so blinded by your feelings for him that you can’t see
Bound To My Protector Mate A Dangerous Alliance
The rogue leader’s words hung in the air, a heavy silence following his declaration of war. My heart pounded, the echo of my own defiance reverberating through my mind as I stood there, caught between power and peril. He watched me with the patience of a predator, his sharp gaze dissecting every inch of my resolve.“I’ll give you one chance to reconsider, Daniel,” he said, his tone smooth but brimming with menace. “Walk away now, and the chaos I unleash will spare no one—not even those you hold closest.”I forced myself to meet his gaze, swallowing the knot in my throat. “I won’t walk away,” I said evenly, my mark burning against my skin like a second heartbeat. “But I’ll hear you out. If you want my loyalty, prove it. Tell me everything—about the weapon, the bond, all of it.”Behind me, I felt Rigel stiffen. His voice cut through the tension, sharp and cold. “Daniel, no. You can’t trust him.”I turned to face him, my own frustration bubbling to the surface. “Then what’s your plan, Ri
