Chosen Mate Through the eyes of a child.
DYLAN"Alpha." I felt someone tug at the hem of my robe. I looked down to see a child staring up at me, her hands firmly holding on to my clothes as though she was fighting to let go. I was not the greatest when it came down to children, so just looking at her now had me in a bind because I didn't know exactly what to do."Hello there." I crouched down to her height so that I was at eye level with her. She smiled at my effort, and I saw the little gleam in her green orbs. I could tell that she would be having her first shift soon because the pre hormones around her were slowly starting to get stronger."Who are you, and how can I help you?" I proceeded to ask. She let go of my robe and rubbed her hands together nervously."My name is Isha and I wanted to ask if you were married to that beautiful woman over there." She pointed her little hands at Iris, who was still engrossed playing with the other kids to have noticed that one of them had sneaked out."What made you ask that question,
Chosen Mate Iris saved by Dylan.
IRIS"Be careful, Luna." One of the women called out to me as I tried to fix up one of the loose floorboards of the ceiling that was hanging down so that it doesn't hurt the kids."I know, Mira," I retorted. "I promise I'll be careful so you don't have to worry about me.""Of course we'll worry. You're the Alpha's woman, and we will all be blamed should anything happen to you while you are working on that. Why don't you just step down and let one of the guys do it for you instead?" She suggested, her voice laced with worry."I'll be fine, Mira. Besides, I'm almost done working on it. It just needs a few tweaks here and there to make a note, and I'll be done," I assured her before resuming to work on it. I managed to fix on the board and just as I was about to step down from the chair, I slipped and felt myself falling.I screamed loudly as I waited for the impact which would be falling to the ground and breaking a few bones here and there. I remained still, waiting and not moving, but
Chosen Mate Iris fainted.
IRIS"I see that you and Kavan were pretty close today," Dylan voiced out as we made our way back home. I had thought that he would at least let me rest and have a moment to myself since I had been very tired all day but no, he wanted to start up a conversation which I wasn't prepared for. Why was he always like this?"Why?" I asked. Obviously irritated that he was trying to talk to me after what he did today. We had been out all morning and he didn't even take the initiative to apologize or at least act as if he was sorry for his actions but now, he was trying to talk to me? Did he think I was that stupid to want a conversation with him?"I'm just asking you a question, Iris." He retorted. "I'm not trying to kill you or accuse you for anything."I scoffed. "Isn't that what you've been doing since yesterday? If I could recall correctly, the last time you asked me this question, you went ahead to slut shame me, and then you took appropriate steps to not train me. So what more should I
Chosen Mate The way to heal her.
DYLAN"Iris?" I rushed toward her and crouched to the ground right next to her. I carried her into my arms and shook her desperately. Her eyes were snapped shut, and that was when I noticed that she was burning up. I drew her closer to myself so that my body would keep her warm."Iris! Don't you mess with me and wake up right now!" I called out to her, begging and pleading for her to open up her eyes, but she wouldn't. She couldn't."Send for the pack's physician right this instant!" I ordered in a loud voice. "If he doesn't arrive in the next twenty minutes, I swear to the goddess that he will crawl all the way home." I threatened, and the guards stormed off. Gently picking her up, I carried her in bridal style and made my way toward my bedroom. I placed her on the bed and took off her attire till she was left in her undergarments."You stubborn woman!" I mumbled under my breath. "You just couldn't wait to finish me off that you had to do this, right? Or did you think that I was easi
Chosen Mate Working on the cure.
DYLAN"I have run some tests and examined her, Alpha. She is highly stressed, and her mind and brain are weak, thereby affecting all parts of her body. It's as if something big is drowning on her." He broke down the news to me in bits, but I still couldn't process or take them all in. She was still thinking about the nightmares. Damn it, Iris!"So what? Is she going to die?" I asked in anger."No. The Luna is in shock. Her body and mind are working separately, and it's weighing down on her deeply. If this continues, then we can fear for the worst."I laughed. An empty laugh filled with no emotions. "If I wanted to fear for the worst, then I wouldn't have called you here to check on her. I called you here simply because I want you to find a solution and help her wake up, so whatever you're telling me does not sit well with me, and I hope you know that I do not take it lightly when something doesn't go according to how I want it to go.""I understand, Alpha, and that's why I'm here. I
Chosen Mate Lusting after her.
DYLANI woke up to Iris's body convulsing on top of mine. She was drenched in sweat, and her eyes were snapped shut. I held onto her like my life depended on it. The physician had only told me to make sure that I had body contact with her which I have been doing all night long, so what could be wrong with her? I had been offering myself as support to make sure that she was okay. So why wasn't she okay, and why was she shaking to the point of sweating out in mass?"Iris?" I called out to her, but she didn't wake up. Instead, it only got worse. Damn it. If she was a werewolf, then I would know exactly what to do, but she wasn't one. She was a human, and I didn't understand their physiology. How was I supposed to help her out of this one?I have tried the close body contact, but it wasn't as effective as I had hoped."Wake up, Iris. This isn't funny anymore, and I don't like it," I whispered to her in a stern voice, but she wouldn't budge. Left with no other option, I threw off the blank
Chosen Mate Accusations.
IRIS.I moaned into the light and opened my eyes slowly. The rays of sun passed through them, and I hid my face in my pillows to block the sun from shining directly into the room. I groaned when I realized that it wasn't working and turned to the other side. Just when I tried my very best to have a good night's sleep, the sun had ruined it. Goodness!Yawning awake, I took in my surroundings and In my dazed eyes, I could tell that I wasn't in my bedroom. My eyes flew open, and I was right. This wasn't my bedroom. However, the bedroom looked familiar to me. Like I already came in there once. My eyes widened as realization set in.Wait a minute, was this Dylan's room? Holy smokes in Wheels! How did I end up here? What was I doing here and how— the rest of my words caught up in my throat when I saw the bigger picture. I was naked. I didn't want to believe it. However, it was nothing but the truth. I slowly pulled the cover over my body and checked again, only to realize that I wasn't wea
Chosen Mate Guilty as charged.
Iris. "What happened last night? And why does he want to see me?" I interrogated my maids as they helped me out of bed to get me cleaned up and ready for the morning. I had been trying to come up with instances as to why he said that I had lied to him, but there was nothing popping up in my brain. Everything felt blank and I couldn't understand what he meant by that statement. Did Kavan tell him anything? No! I highly doubt that. Kavan had given me his word that he would not say a word to Dylan and that he would keep whatever we discussed between us a secret. Besides, we dropped him off last night. If Dylan was with me for the better part of the night, then it only meant that he didn’t see Kavan yesterday after we came back. But if he did not see Kavan and the two of them didn’t have any discussion whatsoever amongst themselves, then what on earth did he mean by saying I had lied to him and betrayed him? None of it was making any sense. Did I suffer a concussion last night or had my

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
