Chosen Mate The horsemanship battle.
DYLANThe maids took Iris back to her bedroom as per my instruction and I was left worried again about how she had gotten the letter in the first place. My mansion was the most secure place in the entire pack, so the fact that someone was able to make it inside meant that they are familiar with this place and had been here before. But who?Who should I be suspecting now? Who was that friend/enemy that wanted me dead for unknown reasons? As far as I was concerned, I was a one-man island. I didn't interact or socialize with anyone, not even the neighbouring Alphas of the other packs. I didn't have an issue with anybody and I barely exist. So why was someone after me? What exactly did I do, and to whom?And what role did Iris have to play in all of this? Are they probably trying to use her to get to me simply because she was my mate? She has barely been here for a month and she hadn't gotten into any problems as far as I was concerned. So why then are they after her? And for what reason?
Chosen Mate The wish.
IRIS"I believe that you owe me a gift now, Mr. Wolfman." My voice cracked as I bursted into another series of laughter. Just looking at his face was enough to send me into an uproar. Dylan looked like he would murder me any minute from now. It was not my fault that he had lost. If only he had agreed to let go of his pride, then we certainly wouldn't be here arguing with each other.I had only come here for a race to get my mind off things, especially from the letter that I had received but he had to make it competitive by agreeing to have a race with me. The mansion could be boring when you have absolutely no one to talk to. Today was one of those occasions where I missed my parents and my time in the human world, and I couldn't help but feel lonely.When my handmaid in charge of taking care of me let it slip that there was a stable in the mansion, I decided to stop wallowing in self-pity and take to the fields for a change… that was until he showed up."You didn't think it was neces
Chosen Mate Attacked.
DYLANI couldn't believe that Iris' birthday was today and she hadn't said anything about it either. Was she trying to hide it from me? But why would she do that? Was it because I hadn't stopped the ritual from taking place? Was she still upset about it? Was that why she had refused to let me in on anything?So what if I hadn't stepped out today to have that race with her? Would she have said anything to me?I was utterly disappointed in myself that I hadn't realized that my wife's birthday was today. Just how distracted have I been these days? I chuckled when it hit me that I had just addressed her as my wife. Well, I would get her the gift in hopes that we make peace with each other even after I had promised her hell when we got married.I had woken up tired, exhausted and in a bad mood from the nightmare I had last night, but racing with her had somehow alleviated the burden inside me. I felt more at ease, as though I could do anything I put my mind to do. It felt a bit nice knowin
Chosen Mate Iris is missing.
DYLANI arrived at the pack to meet the entire place thrown into utter chaos. The defense system had been obliterated and most of the houses had gone up in flames. My eyes took in my surroundings and that was when the damage of what had happened hit me."How on earth did something like this happen?" I asked no one in particular. My mind was scattered all over the place and I couldn't bring myself to accept what I just saw.Most of the guards were lying injured in different parts while the rest had already wound up dead with their bodies lying in different fetal positions."Alpha?" Someone called out to me, and I was met with the hurtful eyes of an older woman who had just walked up to me."My husband and my kids..." She pointed to a house a few feet away from where I stood, a stray tear trailed down her eyes and I noticed that her eyes had gone red and puffy. She had been crying for a very long time which was a clear indication that it happened a while before I was attacked.And if th
Chosen Mate Emergency meeting.
DYLAN"You scared me, you idiot!" Iris slapped me on my arm. "Where did you go?""I went to get you your gift. But is that even the issue here?" I answered with a straight face. A certain wave of relief washed over me when I found her safe and alive. I had thought that she had been kidnapped or worse."I-I… I got scared, Wolfman." Tears trailed down her cheeks as she spoke. "Everything happened so suddenly, and I didn't know what to do. One minute I was in my room and the next minute, the entire mansion had been thrown into utter chaos.""It's okay, Iris. Everything will be fine. I'm here now." I assured her, and she clung onto me again like a second skin while I breathed in her scent. Her prehormones calmed down my wolf who had been raging inside me ever since we both went in search of her."I can't believe that I'm caught up in all of this." She pulled away and creased her forehead while aggressively wiping off her tears."What happened exactly?" I inquired."I was in my room and I
Chosen Mate The mysterious man.
Omniscient POVA mysterious hooded man walked into the underground cave with fiery eyes. He was angry at himself and at everything around him. At himself because he hasn't been able to destroy his enemies and leave them in perils, and at everyone because they were just too stubborn to give in and die like they wanted him to.He took deep breaths to keep his emotions in check.Over time, he had become very powerful so he reveled in the fact that none of the other Alpha Kings could apprehend him even if they wanted to.He had built a lot to his name, and he wasn't done yet. He would need to lie low first and gather more strength because he will not only rule the human world but the werewolf packs as well."Bring them in." He heard someone command from the entrance, and he instantly knew who it was."You never cease to amaze me, Conner. Despite knowing the kind of power I possess, you still come here unafraid." He spoke softly before moving towards his high chair that signified a throne
Chosen Mate Strange dream.
IRISI waited for hours until Dylan finally arrived. I couldn't contain my excitement when I saw him come back to us in one piece. I thought that he had been attacked or worse, but I was grateful that he wasn't. At least, I wouldn't have to worry anymore."You're back?" I ran into his arms, hugging him tightly. He hugged me back, but we pulled away from each other and I suddenly felt awkward about it. I didn't know why but I didn't think we were so close as to start hugging each other. Maybe it was the adrenaline of fear speaking on my behalf."Of course I'll be back." He conformed. "I told you, didn't I? That I would come back to you, no matter what.""Welcome back, Alpha." Jamison bowed down his head curtly at him. "How did the meeting go with the rest of the other members of the pack?""It's more than any of us anticipated," Dylan broke down the news. "At first I thought that it was just me but apparently everyone in the council was involved in this. My pack was not the only one ra
Chosen Mate Learning defence.
IRIS"These beaded jewelry look so good on you, Luna." One of the maids complimented me, and I slowly raised my hand to touch it while I stared at my reflection in the mirror in front of me. I wasn't feeling myself today and to top it off, I felt like the weight of the world was thrown on my shoulders. The dream I had last night had not evaded my mind nor had I come to terms to understand what it was all about. I knew that something bigger than me was brewing somewhere but I just couldn't understand what it was exactly? Last night, I dreamt of the same scenario twice and none of those times was I able to get an answer to what was going on in my nightmare."You are right. The luna looks completely beautiful in this piece of jewelry and it really compliments her dressing today." I snapped back to reality when I heard that statement. They were talking to me and I had zoned out on them."How is it that you people are smiling and feeling so happy after everything that happened yesterday?

Chosen Mate Left alone.
Iris.I watched the Alpha Arnold walk in with the man who had refused to grace me with his presence for a few days now. I didn't know why, but I had gone from not wanting to have anything to do with the man to simply missing his presence around.But then again, as much as I missed his presence, there was still this warning in a part of my heart that kept telling me that I should not give him the chance to get too close with me. Otherwise, I would be playing with fire. I didn't even know what that was supposed to mean, but I wanted to pay attention to my sixth sense. In a way, it had helped helped me out of trouble.A sigh escaped my lips as I turned to pick up a handkerchief so that I would be able to wipe sweat off my face. I was alerted to how well I was healing now. If it was before, rather than that sigh that I let out, I was sure that it was going to either be a groan or it was going to be me being in tears from the excruciating pain that would take over me."Let me help with tha
Chosen Mate Companionship.
Dylan.I woke up with my head banging hard like I had spent the entire night handling some dangerous mission that left my life on edge. I groaned as I got up from the bed and made my way to the...Wait? A bed? How had I gotten onto a bed? The last thing I remembered was Alpha Arnold trying to communicate with me and me rudely cutting him off. The events that follwed after that were a bit not so clear to me."Are you okay now?" I heard the gruff voice of the man I was just thinking about. I turned around and saw him sitting down on a chair, a book in hand - book that I was so sure he was not reading - and his attention duly focused on me. I looked around and saw that we were in the same hotel room we had gotten for almost a week in a row now. Or was it three days? My brain was still a bit foggy, so I couldn't think straight.But how? How did he end up being with me? Was he not supposed to be with Iris?"Is something wrong with Iris?" I asked him without even stopping to think."Oh, so
Chosen Mate A drunk Alpha Dylan.
Alpha Dylan. Days after the doctor told me those words, my heart was no longer in the right places. I lost track of myself and barely managed to keep my shit together.The possibility that the woman might never remember who I was? How absurb! Except that I knew there was nothing absurb about the matter. In fact, since I got that revelation, my mind had been far away. Why?Because every time I stepped into Iris's room, I got that look that said that I was a nobody to her, so she couldn't overly be concerned about my presence. While I tried my best to act like the words and actions didn’t get to me whenever I was with her, once I was out of her room, my heart always sank down.It was so bad that even Arnold had begun to notice the difference to me. Now, I hadn't gone to the hospital for two days in a roll after telling Arnold to only contact me if there was something wrong or if my signature was needed for something.While I was at the hospital, I tried to urge the doctor to continue
Chosen Mate Memory loss.
Alpha Dylan. Just like the first time she would ever ask me that question, my mind still went blank again. How could she always ask me the same question every time she set her eyes on me?"Iris, it is me, Dylan," I said in a lame attempt to make her remember. The doctor came over to my side and moved around me to get to her. Once he was close, he began to examine her thoroughly. Unlike the first time, no one told me to move my ass out of the way. I waited, watching as the doctor used some sort of touch to check her eyeballs, roamed his fingers in front of her, and asked her a few questions also."How do you feel now?" He asked when he was done with his examination. He had his hand on the report card that was always seated at the edge of the bed. "A bit of a headache and pain," Iris mumbled out. "Dry throat also." She added after a while.The doctor nodded and wrote some things in the card. Once he returned the card back to the usual position, he turned to look at me first, then bac
Chosen Mate Danger!
Alpha Dylan.I rushed into the hospital the next day, a few minutes past 10 in the morning. Or was it 11 AM already?I had no idea that I was extremely tired until after I got to the hotel, took a long needed shower, sank into bed and just dozed off instantly. The only thing that was not making me panic was the fact that there was no call from Arnold yet, which could only mean that Iris was fine."Good morning, sir." The receptionist, whom I didn't bother to find out her name, said to me as a form of greeting when she saw me. I nodded my head to her before letting out a short, "good morning to you, too." And then, I was rushing to get to the ICU so I would be able to see Iris for myself. "Arnold, how is she?" I called when I got closed enough for him to hear me."You are here." He said gently. He was standing close to the glass area, almost as if he was just checking her out. "There has been no casualty since you left. In fact, she opened her eyes about three times already, but they
Chosen Mate Taking turns to watch over Iris.
Alpha Dylan.Five days of no show. Five days of no reactions. Five whole days of waiting for a miracle.Iris had not shown any form of life or even danger ever since she got wheeled into the operation room for over five days now. At a point, I became so worried about her state of just lying down, looking almost lifeless. I didn't know if I should be worried about that or if it was a good news in itself. The doctor had told me that she was responding to treatment, and it was good that she was not showing any reason for crisis as that could be bad for her.Now, I was just standing outside the ICU section she was put in and watching her through the glass wall. The first day after she got in here, I visited her for the number of times allowed. The second day, I did the same. The third day, I came in once and allowed Arnold to use the second time. The fourth time, I couldn't find the courage in me to go in there and look at her when she looked like she was in a lot of pain, if the way she

Giselle."He failed," I muttered to Juliana the moment I got into the mansion and settled on the couch in the living room. I didn't need to tell her some more about whoever it was who failed. From the way she gasped softly, I knew that she already knew just exactly who I was talking about."I never thought he would ever fail." The maid said as a way of response.I never thought that he could either.From the way the man had handled me and the ruthless edge he had around him, I had been so sure that Beta Daniel would not have been able to survive an attack from the rogue. But somehow, that hope had been dashed."He did injure Beta Daniel heavily, though." I sighed as I remembered just how bloodied the man had been. Heck, he had even given the authority to someone else because he needed to recuperate completely. If only the rogue had managed to deal one deathly blow to the man, all my problems would be solved by now."Maybe Beta Daniel had someone help him out of the blue? Perhaps that
Chosen Mate Acting nice.
Beta Daniel. I hurried back to the pack, my blood still dripping from my injured arm to my shirt and trousers. In fact, I purposely held the arm over the clothing so that the blood would drip more on them, and it would look like I was injured in more places than just the arm.The moment I got to the gate, I was stopped by the guards who immediately camouflaged around me whole looking around, their swords ready just in case there was a danger lurking around."At ease," I said, making my voice sound low and disgruntled. "I made sure to lose the man before coming back to the pack," I told them. It would do no good to deliberately make them worry when I knew that all was well.Or could it not be?For all I knew, the other man could have played on my intelligence and was just waiting for the right time to strike me. Or maybe he was even interested in invading the pack and dominating it so that he would be the new Alpha."Still, do not let your guards down," I said as an afterthought. Afte
Chosen Mate The deal.
Beta Daniel. I was still lost in my thoughts and concern for the pack that I almost didn't notice that I was already in the forest which bordered the two packs. A squirrel made a sound, and I paused as I looked at a tree and saw the said squirrel trying to get some kind of fruit which looked like nut. Or more like trying to crack it. An army of ant interrupted the squirrel on the mission it was after. The squirrel, sad that his mission was intercepted, raced from the branch of the tree to another in order to get the ants to leave him, still holding on to rhe nut like it's light depended on it.I laughed at the small event I had just witnessed. I tsked and ignored the squirrel and the ants and began to make my way back to the pack. I tensed when I noticed that there was a movement behind me.It was the same kind of walking pattern I had noticed before when I was going over to Alpha Arnold's pack. I doubted if it was the guards of the pack or any pack for that matter since this part of
