Meeting My mate.

Ryker’s POV The voices around me blurred into a dull hum. My beta, Jaxon, stood in front of me, his expression tight with frustration. “Alpha, did you hear what I said? The western border was attacked again. We lost—” I tuned him out. Not because the attack wasn’t important. Not because the pack wasn’t my responsibility. But because something far worse loomed over me. My time was running out. They had told me yesterday. “Two weeks. That’s all you have left.” Two weeks to find the mate I had spent centuries searching for. If I failed, I would lose my strength. My immortality. My life. I clenched my jaw, staring at the fire crackling in the hearth. I had lost count of my years long ago, long after I crossed the 1,000-year mark. But ever since the elders warned me of my impending death, I had started counting again. And now, the number was getting dangerously low. The weight of it pressed against my chest, suffocating. I needed air. “Handle it,” I muttered to Jaxon, already standing. His eyes flashed with frustration, but he said nothing. He knew better. I left the room, stepping out into the night. The only place that had ever brought me any solace was the human world. They were simple creatures, ignorant of the monsters that walked among them. Their problems were nothing compared to the wars and betrayals I had witnessed. And yet, their world fascinated me. It was the only place I could exist without the weight of my title. Without the burden of who I was supposed to be. I decided to take a drive. To clear my head. But just as I was about to leave, my phone buzzed. I glanced at the screen. Alec. My younger brother. “Ryker,” his voice came through the speaker, slightly muffled. “I’m landing soon.” “I’m already on my way,” I said, changing directions toward the airport. Alec had been away for a few months, dealing with pack affairs in another region. His presence had been missed though I would never admit it. I arrived at the airport within minutes, parking outside the arrivals section. And then my phone rang again. “Don’t bother waiting,” Alec said. “A friend picked me up. I’ll be home soon.” I exhaled sharply, irritated. A wasted trip. I was about to pull away when the passenger door flew open. I turned sharply, muscles tensing. A woman stood there, she didn’t say a word. She simply stared at me. I narrowed my eyes. She looked familiar, but I couldn’t place where I knew her from. Her wide, startled eyes flickered with recognition as if she knew exactly who I was. Then, before I could say a word, she slammed the door shut and ran. I watched her retreating form disappear into the crowd. That was… unexpected. But I didn’t dwell on it. Instead, I pulled away from the curb, shaking my head. I needed a drink. — The bar was loud, dimly lit, filled with the scent of sweat and liquor. I took a seat in the farthest booth, away from the noise. A waitress approached, all sultry smiles and lingering glances. I ignored her and ordered my usual something strong. Tonight, I wanted to drink until the world blurred. Until I forgot the ticking clock over my head. Until I forgot that no matter how much I fought, fate was winning. I was halfway through my second glass when the noise behind me became too much. Raised voices. Shouts. Laughter that wasn’t right. I tried to ignore it, but I couldn’t. I turned to the back. A group of men surrounded someone near the bar. A woman. Her movements were unsteady, her arms limp as one of the men grabbed her by the waist, pulling her closer. Something about her was familiar. I stiffened. The girl from the airport. I sighed, rubbing my temples. Not my problem. But then one of the men grabbed her wrist, twisting it hard enough to make her stumble. Something in me snapped. I stood. The next moment, I was in front of them. The men turned, sneering, eyes filled with arrogance. “Walk away,” one of them said, smirking. “This isn’t your concern.” I smiled. And then, I broke his nose. The fight was over in seconds. The men lay groaning on the floor, and I turned to the woman. She was swaying, barely conscious. I sighed, reaching out to steady her, and everything stopped. The moment my skin touched hers, a sharp, electric jolt shot through me, setting my blood on fire. My wolf roared. “Mate!” I froze. My entire body locked up as shock coursed through me. This girl, this human couldn’t be my mate. It wasn’t possible. I had searched for centuries, traveled across continents, and yet… she was right here. Weak. Drunk. Vulnerable. This was the woman fate had chosen for me? She stumbled, and I caught her. She was warm. Soft. And the moment she looked up at me, something clicked. I tried to step back, to pull away, but she didn’t let me. Instead, her arms looped around my neck, and before I could react, she pulled me down and kissed me. Fiercely. Desperately. Like she had been waiting for this moment her whole life. And as much as I hated to admit it. so had I.

Chapter 4Serena’s POVI woke up to warmth. To the slow rise and fall of steady breaths against my skin.For a moment, I was caught in the haze of sleep, my body tangled in soft sheets, my limbs heavy with exhaustion. My head ached, my throat was dry. I sucked in a sharp breath. I was naked.Panic surged through me, my heart slamming against my ribs as last night’s events came rushing back in fragmented pieces. The bar. The drinks. The men surrounding me.And him.My breath hitched as my gaze darted to the figure beside me. Broad shoulders. Tanned skin. A face that was both terrifying and breathtaking.Ryker.The man who killed my father.A choked sound rose in my throat as I jerked up, clutching the sheets to my chest. My pulse pounded violently as my mind screamed at me to run, to get as far away from him as possible. But before I could even move, his arm wrapped around my waist and pulled me back into the heat of his body.“I’ve missed you,” he murmured, his voice deep and husky a

Chapter 5 Serena POV. I woke up surrounded by white.The ceiling stretched impossibly high, a crystal chandelier shimmering above me. Everything in the room walls, furniture, even the massive bed I lay in was bathed in soft ivory, untouched and pristine. The sheets beneath my fingers were cool and silky, but my skin burned. My body ached, my head heavy, and the lingering scent of something dark and intoxicating clung to me.I sat up too quickly. Pain shot through my skull, but that wasn’t what made my stomach twist. Memories slammed into me like a crashing wave, drowning me in everything I had tried to forget.The bar. The fight. Him.My fingers flew to my neck, tracing the spot where his teeth had pierced my skin. It wasn’t a dream. The way my body had burned from the inside out, the way I had lost control it was real.A sound outside the door made me freeze.Footsteps.Then a voice, deep and commanding. His voice.“When is she going to wake up?”I sucked in a sharp breath. Even wi

Chapter 6 Serena’s POV I’ve come to realize that trying to change a demon’s point of view is like trying to change your destiny. It’s going to cost your life, and I’m not ready to lose mine because of a dickhead monster.After the long argument with Ryker, I was assigned a room — too big for only me. It felt like I was a stone being thrown into a vast sea, the way the room swallowed me.I stood up, wiping the tears that stained my lashes. This is not how I planned it. My plan was to sue the man who killed my father, but here I am, trapped in his kingdom with no way out.I moved to the window, staring at each maid that passed. They seemed to be living in fear, their heads bowed.I turned away. Staring at them only made the situation feel heavier.Ryker had made it clear we would be getting married by the weekend, and today? Today is my only chance to escape. If I want to leave, it has to be now — because tomorrow is already the weekend. He had mentioned it just to give me false hope.

Chapter 7Ryker’s POVI knew she was going to try something stupid.Serena is reckless, stubborn, and too damn bold for her own good. She doesn’t understand what it means to be mine yet, but she will. Soon.The moment I stepped into the courtyard and saw her kneeling beside the dead guard, her hands shaking, eyes wide with horror, something twisted deep inside me.She thought he would come back, just like I do. But she doesn’t realize — there is only one Ryker. Only I have been cursed with immortality. The rest? They bleed. They die. They stay dead.I watched her tremble, her lips parting, as if reality had just slapped her in the face. She was afraid, not of me, but of what she had done.She should be.But instead of punishing her, instead of yelling or forcing her to submit, I felt something dark curl in my chest, something close to satisfaction.Because now, she was stained by blood. My little hellfire was one step closer to me.I moved toward her, silent, controlled, while her bre

Chapter 8Serena’s POVI should push him away.I should claw at his chest, fight, do anything to stop this.But I don’t.Ryker’s body cages me in, pressing me against the silk sheets, his scent thick in my nostrils, dark spice and danger. His hands roam over me, slow but possessive, like he’s mapping every inch of my body, claiming it.Heat coils deep in my stomach, a pulse of something dark and dangerous thrumming through my veins. I hate this. I hate him.But when his fingers drag lower, grazing the sensitive skin just above my hips, my breath stutters. My body betrays me.His lips graze my jaw, his breath hot against my skin. “You’re so warm, little hellfire,” he murmurs, voice rough with hunger. “Do you know what that does to me?”I bite my lip, fighting the response threatening to escape. But my body is already answering him, my thighs tense, my pulse erratic, heat pooling between my legs.He notices.Of course, he does.His smirk is wicked against my neck as he trails his mouth

Chapter 9 Serena’s POV The warm water did nothing to cleanse me. I scrubbed my skin until it burned, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t erase the phantom touch of Ryker’s hands. His lips. His scent.I gritted my teeth, pressing my forehead against the cool tile wall of the bathroom. Why?Why couldn’t I stop thinking about him?I hated him. I despised him.Yet, my body betrayed me.Even now, the memory of his lips devouring mine sent an unwelcome shiver down my spine. The way he touched me, the heat in his eyes, it was as if he was branding himself into my very soul.Dressing quickly, I wrapped myself in a thin robe and stepped out of the bathroom. My room was dimly lit, the moonlight casting eerie shadows across the walls. I tightened the robe around me, trying to shake off the unease curling in my gut.And then I felt it. A familiar yet intoxicating scent. Before I could react, the door slammed open and shut within a second. I spun around just as Ryker stepped out of the

Chapter 10Ryker’s POVThe scent of fresh pine and burning torches occupy everywhere, but it does nothing to ease the growing feeling pressing down on my chest. The grand hall is set. The ceremony is waiting. Wolves stand in perfect rows, their whispers like insects buzzing in my ears.Everything is in place.Except for Serena.My jaw tightens, my wolf growling in my head. The moment I woke up, the pack had already begun their preparations. The elders took their places. Even I, who have never given a damn about ceremonies, stood ready to bind myself to the one woman who could break me.And now, she’s missing.I scan the hall one more time, my patience thinning with every second. Where is she?I inhale deeply, sharpening my senses, trying to smell her. The scent is floral perfumes, the musk of alphas, the scent of burning candles. But none of it belongs to her.I turn on my heel and stride out of the hall.Alec steps into my path, frowning. “She’s not here?”I don’t answer. He already

I should have let her bathe in peace, let her convince herself she could erase me with soap and scalding water.

Ryker’s POV The elders wrinkled their faces and twisted with disapproval. Their voices clashed as they spoke over one another, throwing accusations at Serena like daggers. “Disrespectful!” “Mannerless!” “A disgrace to the pack!” Serena stood in the center of the room, her shoulders squared, her chin high. She didn’t flinch. If anything, the fire in her eyes burned brighter with each insult. I leaned back against my chair, my arms crossed, watching. I wanted to see how she would handle them, how she would fight back. But then, what Elder Marcus said penetrate into my ear and I feel my anger growing each seconds. “You dress like a whore, parading in something meant for the bedroom!” The words re-echoed in my ear. My body went rigid. A deep growl ripped from my chest before I could stop it. The sound was low, deadly, vibrating through the room like a warning. Elder Marcus flinched but quickly masked his fear with a sneer. “Watch your tongue,” I said to him, my voice

Chapter 18 Ryker’s POV “You’re playing a dangerous game, little hellfire,” I murmur, watching the way her throat bobs as she swallows. She doesn’t flinch. “I’m serious.” I brush my knuckles down her arm, slow, deliberate, watching for any sign of resistance. There is none. She stands perfectly still, but I don’t miss the way her breath hitches, the way her pulse quickens beneath her skin. My wolf growls in approval. “Let me guess,” I say, my voice dropping lower. “You’ve finally accepted the bond?” Her lips part slightly, is that hesitation? Then, she squares her shoulders. “Yes.” She answered. Liar. I see it in her eyes, in the stiff set of her jaw. She’s up to something. And yet I don’t care. I could call her bluff. I could demand to know what she’s plotting. But right now, the fact that she’s standing here, willingly surrendering herself to me is far more interesting. Let her play her little game. Because at the end of it, she’ll be mine anyway. I
Curse of the Alpha demon I want to be your bride
Chapter 17 Serena’s POV I wake up aching. But from burning desire, it leaves me breathless, my body flushed with heat, my thighs pressed together to dull the pulsing ache between them. Last night was torture. Ryker had touched me, kissed me, left me burning then walked away like it was nothing. Like he didn’t just own every part of me, body and mind. I hate him for it. But I hate myself more for craving him. I shift under the sheets, my skin tingling, still sensitive from his touch. My nipples are stiff peaks against the fabric of my nightgown, my body betraying me in every possible way. I shouldn’t want him. I should be focused on my plan, on convincing him I’ve surrendered so he’ll let his guard down. But how am I supposed to fool him when I can’t even fool myself? I take a shaky breath, forcing myself up. The morning air is crisp against my heated skin as I slip into a robe and make my way downstairs, determined to stay in control. When I enter the dinner room,

Chapter 16RYKER’S POVI feel it the moment she says his name. Alec.Rage slams into me so fast it nearly blinds me. My fingers dig into her thighs where she sits on the table, completely bare except for those thin, useless panties. My grip tightens, and she gasps — not in fear, but in daring amusement.She knows what she’s doing. She knows exactly how to push me over the edge.“You think you can make me jealous?” My lips ghost over her cheek, my breath hot against her ear. “You are mine, little hellfire. No one else touches what’s mine.”A slow, dark chuckle rumbles from my chest. Oh, little wolf, you want to play this game? Then let’s play.My hand shoots up, wrapping around her throat, and I pull her closer, forcing her to meet my eyes. Her breath hitches, her pulse hammering beneath my fingers, but she doesn’t look away.“Say his name again, and I’ll make you scream mine until you forget he even exists.”She doesn’t. Her lips part, but no sound comes out. Good.My grip on her thro

Chapter 15I watch Ryker carefully, my body humming with the knowledge of what I’m about to do. He hesitates just for a moment, but it’s enough. That flicker of uncertainty tells me everything. If I force him to choose, he’ll choose Alec.But then his eyes darken, his voice a low growl.“You don’t have to make me choose,” he says, his fingers gripping my chin. “Alec is my only family… but you—” his thumb traces my lips, rough and possessive, “you complete me. Without you, there is no me.”My chest tightens at his words, but I shove the feeling away. I remember what Alec told me. If I want to escape Ryker, I have to make him believe I’ve surrendered.So I do.I move fast, pressing against him, my lips crashing onto his. My kiss is hungry, desperate, and for the first time, he hesitates.His grip tightens on my waist, pushing me back just enough to look into my eyes. “What the hell are you doing?” he breathes, his voice thick with suspicion.I tilt my head, my fingers trailing over his

The car speeds through the empty road, but it still feels too damn slow. My fingers drum against my thigh, tension coiling through my body like a tightened rope ready to snap.I’ve been away too long.I shouldn’t have left at all.But I had no choice. The demon inside me needed to be fed, not with food, not with blood, but with power. The ancient energy that runs through my veins isn’t meant to be contained. It craves dominance, control, submission. And when denied, it festers, making me restless, making me reckless.That’s why I left.To release some of that power before it consumed me.And now, I need to return to the one thing that keeps me grounded.Serena. The thought of her is enough to make my cock harden painfully against my pants. I picture her — the way she looked the last time I touched her, breathless, flushed, her body b

Chapter 13 Serena’s POVI watch Alec’s retreating figure, my fists still clenched at my sides. His words pierce into my calm thought. I wonder if he could be saying the truth. Ryker seems dangerous than he looks. I take a slow breath, forcing myself to stop thinking about it. I stared back only to realized the guard are still watching. I bite my lower lips hardly and without hesitation, headed toward the exit. My feet move steadily across the marble floors, my heart pounding as I near the massive double doors leading outside. If they let me pass, maybe I can slip away. But the moment I step too close,one of them moves in front of me, blocking my path.I stop. My blood boils.I already knew this would happen, but the confirmation of it — the clear proof that I am nothing but a prisoner. — sends a deep rage through me. My nails dig into my palms as I stare at the guard, my breathing shallow. I don’t even know why I feel so furious, why my body feels like it’s begging for destruc

Chapter 12 Serena’s POVI hate this.I hate him.But my body doesn’t.My skin still burns from his touch, my lips still tingle from his kiss, and no matter how much I tell myself to stop thinking about him, I can’t. His scent lingers on my body like a cursed brand, and worse, I crave it.I press my thighs together, trying to suffocate the heat pulsing between them, but it only makes it worse. My breathing is uneven, my fingers gripping the sheets beneath me as images of last night flood my mind — his rough hands, his mouth against my skin, the way he whispered my name like a promise and a threat.I shouldn’t feel like this. I should be thinking about revenge, about escaping this prison he calls home.But my body betrays me.My hand trembles as it lifts, almost against my will, sliding up my stomach, feeling the warmth of my own skin. A shudder runs through me. My fingers trail higher, reaching my breasts, brushing over my hardened nipple.A strangled gasp escapes me, my back arching
