Dare To Mate Chapter 25 - PLEASE
CARLY WOODS POV The days to Jace's birthday were slowly drawing close and I was yet to decide on what to gift him.What do you gift a man that needs redemption?Today was not like any other regular day for me in the Brookside pack. The day on its own started with the warmth of the sun and the sound of birds tweeting away merrily on trees and anything they found pleasant enough to perch on.But my day took a turn for the worse when I got a call from the head omega, requesting my presence in the pack house. I didn't think much of it at first, but when I was informed upon my arrival that Addison required me to clean out her room and closet, I knew something wasn't right.I have this nagging feeling she was up to something. Something I couldn't figure out.Jace had left before I woke up so I assumed he was already at the pack house but I later found out he, alongside Ian and some of the pack warriors, left for a meeting in another pack's land.So, I spent the day arranging and rearrangin

ADDISON'S POV It was starting to be fun. Putting this lowly omega in her place was starting to be fun. She'd stubbed out too far with Jace and now she just had to face the music. "How long is this going to take?" Ophelia huffed, peeling her gaze from her phone, "Could we just get this done with?""Could you just shut the hell up you're starting to grow annoying." I hissed already irritated by her headless rambles She shrugged and relaxed in the bar of Jace's mansion. I poured us some more tequila, relaxed in the bar, and allowed my mind to wander freely.Timing was everything and just like Ophelia, I was starting to run out of patience. I tabbed off the butt of my cigarette and took another drag of the cigarette. Carly was assigned to clean out my room a task aimed at letting the entire pack know of the stuff that runt was truly made of. My jewelry collection was an optimal temptation one she could never resist. "I hope the half-heart gold necklace has been just where it'

CARLY WOODS POVSteady streaks of tears cascaded down my face, soaking deep into my pale tank top causing it to cling onto my skin.Addison had carefully thought this through, whatever was intended was quickly unveiled and I'd rather be anywhere but at the receiving end of this conniving bitch ploy.My cries fell on the deaf ears of the small crowd that rapidly formed in the room and doorway, Mia had squeezed her way into the room and was silently observing in the corner like everyone else, but unlike the rest of the people who had disgust and contempt in their eyes, Mia was anxious and apprehensive of what will happen when Jace got here.I wasn't afraid of Jace's reaction to this, I was sure as hell that Jace would believe me. He did believe me the day Addison came on me in the kitchen.Would he even for a second doubt my character? My chest constricted at the thought of his accusing eyes."Mia, please tell her I didn't do it," I begged in desperation but the fear in her wide doe br

JACE BALDWIN POVI was in my office in the pack house with my Beta, Ian Diaz, and Gamma, Nate Moore, after a stressful day of lengthy meetings and driving about to and from the Crescent Hill pack to form allies should Darren, the leader of the Outlanders- the rouge group, decide to launch an attack when Lykos and I are weakened from the Gaia curse.In my office, there was a tall walnut bookshelf lining the entire right-hand wall, a comfortable sleek black leather couch, double seats, and single seats arranged in a square shape for small office meetings. There's a fireplace at the far wall that is flanked by two dominating bookshelves by the side, on the other side was a mahogany table with stacks of papers, files, a pencil holder, a MacBook computer, and a glass of whiskey I dropped a minute ago. Behind the table was a black swirl leather chair. There was a file cabinet by the wall beside my work table. On the left was a wide floor-to-ceiling window that overlooked the gates. There wa

JACE BALDWIN POV I spent the remainder of the day doing my Alpha duties as if nothing happened. I buried my nose in the pile of work I had on my desk, meeting with those who had appointments with me.I was only trying but failing to push Carly out of my head. It was frustrating when the only thing I saw was her broken face as those dark eyes begged and pleaded to be heard.The day she asked what it felt like to shift was when I realized she was a broken soul. More broken than she lets on.Living as half-human in the werewolf community without your wolf must be hard for her. The agony and vulnerability she tried to hide cut deep into the depths of my heart. She was alone trying to push her way through then I stumbled in and made it more complicated.When she ran away after a tear slipped through, I wanted to go after her but my butt was glued to the theater seat and I knew she needed time to recollect herself.It was amusing to make her think she could easily sneak in after spending

JACE BALDWIN POV The prison guard hurriedly clicked the heavy padlock that kept the barred door in place before flicking it open with a loud clattering noise as the door slammed into the brick prison wall.A whimper reached my ear and my heart constricted when Carly's curled form shifted into the wall as if trying to hide herself from intruders.Maybe to protect herself from further harm.She lay on her side, her knees pulled up to her chest, her head dropped down such that her chin rested on her knee, her right hand served as a pillow while her left hand tightened around her folded legs.Carly made no further move, she was shivering as her flimsy pale blue tank top and denim cut-offs did nothing to protect her from the cold hard floor she lay on.With a silent nod, the prison guard trotted off somewhere.Silently, I placed the small plate of peanut butter and jelly sandwich I brought along on the floor.I scanned around the tiny space that reeked of blood, sweat, cigarettes, and sal

CARLY WOODS POV Darkness. Thick gross darkness. That was all I saw as I sat by the wall on the cold prison floor. The darkness played different kinds of tricks on my narrowed eyes. It was even worse that the only available light bulb kept flickering on and off after every ten minutes which made my heart race rapidly. It was moments like this that I wished I was a full wolf with all the necessary benefits Fear gripped my heart as I saw zombie-like creatures wobble their way to me. I was either hallucinating or I was slowly losing it, but I couldn't stop myself from being afraid in the pitch darkness. It didn't take me long to realize that begging and pleading wasn't going to take me anywhere, Addison had made she backed me in the worst corner ever. The waterworks had ceased about an hour or two ago and I was left a snuffing and hiccupping mess. The swelling around my eyes was enough evidence of how hard and long I cried. I was positive my tear duct had been wrung out well.

CARLY WOODS POVIt was the early hours of the next day when Jace returned to do goddess knows what.After the fight with Jace, I was tired out so I fell asleep on him.In a way, his presence had eased the anxiety, and agitation I felt when I was first cast down here. The cozy robe he draped over my shoulder was warm and comforting, and I found myself snuggling into its warmth and taking a not-so-subtle whiff of his manly essence.We settled side by side on the hard concrete floor. Jace didn't seem to mind the unkempt state of the prison floor, if anything, he was calm, way too calm.I was still pissed at him for what he did but there was a sliver of amusement in my eyes when he tried defending himself.The fight started as a benign argument that swiftly escalated into a harsh confrontation that had me breathing hard like I was in a race.The ache in those leafy eyes when I accused him of having a part in Addison's ploy almost had me pulling back but I was too irritated to stop, too st

I got home a few after midnight, and my tired feet led me to Carly's door. I stood behind the closed door, listening in on her slow and steady heartbeat that indicated she was trapped in a sleeping daze.Without giving much thought to it, I pushed the door open, before sneaking into the small confines of her room.Why on earth did she see the need to move into this cramped space, even if she wanted to change rooms she could have gone for a better one than this.I made a mental note to make her change her room the next day.Discarding my shoes and clothes, I sneaked into her bed, before pulling her into my warm chest with a soft kiss on her forehead.I missed this, try as I might, I couldn't keep away from her for too long, I needed her soft and translucent scent wafting through my nostrils, calming every nerve cell in my body.Unconsciously, she moved closer to me, her hands and legs instinctively wrapping around my large muscular body.We stayed that way for about thirty minutes befo
Dare To Mate Chapter 81 - ELEMENT OF SURPRISE
Stephanie let out a short laugh as she gathered her raven hair into a tight bun. "No offense intended but you? You want to give me fighting tips?"My sentiments exactly.Her smile didn't falter which caused my heart to swell as a smile involuntarily crawled up my face.With that smile on her face, she was more beautiful than ever. "You want to learn this or what?" She sounded a bit annoyed, yet her smile was still in place."Humor me." "The first thing is very simple and I think you can do that, fight as if your life depends on it because it does with hundreds of others who would need your protection as a warrior. If Addison for some reason beats you, trust me when I say, I'll be the first to clap and hoot for her.A serious look graced her face as if she was an instructor rather than a harmless pregnant woman. Taking two steps forward, she got closer to Stephanie who also had a serious look and her face, the air around them thick with seriousness."The second and the most vital tip
Dare To Mate Chapter 80 - THIS SHOULD BE FUN
JACE BALDWIN POV It was a Friday and Mr. Nelson the trainer fixed another combat session for the women. It was a way of keeping them interested and competing since most of them wanted nothing to do with fights.I didn't want to make an appearance since it wasn't necessary but Ian demanded I did because of some words going around that I was in a coma.That must have been the reason I got different surprised looks and gaps from some people.Some people just didn't have what to do with their lives.I didn't sleep much last night because my mind kept wandering around what Carly and her boyfriend were doing. Somewhere around 4 am, my brain finally shut off from exhaustion and I slept off, only to be woken by an angry Addison.Damn it, can't a man take a few hours without any drama?"I'm going to fucking kill that little shit, you left me to come to sleep in this cramped space with her? How dare you?" She screeched, stomping towards the closet door that was ajar from the night before."CA
Dare To Mate Chapter 79 - ALREADY HERE
CARLY WOODS POV The next morning, the bright sunlight that shone without mercy from the opened blinds pulled me out of my peaceful slumber.I was in one of his white shirt he allowed me borrow from his wardrobe, my hair stick around in everything direction.Beta Ian and I had spent a few more hours in the open bar, talking about random things.He pushed me to tell him the problem between the Alpha and me, and I told him there wasn't any.Honestly, there weren't any problems between us. I told him Jace simply drew the boundary in our arrangement. He had Addison whom he was engaged to be married to then came the dare that ushered me into their picture-perfect life.Or not so perfect life.I didn't make the mistake of asking him about the curse or the earth wolf. Beta Diaz was a smart fellow, he was quite an observant fellow.The woman in question who prompted my visit to the bar left an hour later with one of the men she was drinking with.I didn't say anything to Ian, though I asked
Dare To Mate Chapter 78 - MYSTERY WOMAN
"It's nothing, Ian."I wanted to tell him I asked her to keep away from me but knowing Ian, he was going to over-analyze the situation and make it be what it wasn't. I couldn't tell him or anyone else for that matter. At least, not now."I'm not one to pry so I'll leave you to it, but whatever it is Jace, I hope you made the right decision." He said picking up the bowl of popcorn from the counter. I followed shortly after his retreating figure to the movie room where the gang was lounging around.The choice of movie did not interest me so I blocked out the voices that resonated from the sound system, relaxed my stiff shoulders, and shut my eyes while leaning my head on the backrest of the theater seat, my mind got stuck on Ian and Allen's words from earlier."Never seen a woman who isn't your mother going all out in worry for you, not even Addie. The little princess almost ripped my head with her hands.""That's what I thought until I was at the receiving end of her anger.""A spit
Dare To Mate Chapter 77 - MAMA HEN
JACE BALDWIN'S POV As the darkness receded, giving room for consciousness to creep in, my ears tingled alert to my surroundings.I could hear the clanking of plates in the kitchen, and the sound of four sets of heartbeats beating at different tempos and rhythms.Confusion washed over me in waves as my mind reeled on who could be in my home.The door opened the second my eyes decided it had enough of the darkness that lurked within."Look who gave Hades a tease." The relief in Ian's voice and the sarcastic smile on his face made a weak smile indent on my face."What the hell happened?" I asked, a little confused as I looked around the foreign room that seemed to be the smallest in this house. "I don't remember coming here.""You don't remember what happened before you passed out? How are you feeling by the way?" He came close, clapping me on the back. "A little weak man but I'm good, it's been a while since I passed out from this," I said scratching the back of my head."It'll be alr
Dare To Mate Chapter 76 - WRONG PERSON
The car drive was silent as Beta Ian drove the short distance to the pack house, I looked out from the tinted window at the glowing lights that illuminated the dark streets from the tall buildings."Thank you," I muttered when he pulled up in his reserved spot in the parking lot."Take care, and don't do anything stupid."Gathering my bag that lay by my feet on the car floor, I swung open the door and stepped out into the cold night air, slamming the door shut.Glancing over my shoulder, I saw the Beta drive off into the dark street as I made my way into the pack house where I'd bid my time.Didn't he say he had a business to do here?The pack house was big enough to accommodate hundreds of wolves though most mated wolves would rather buy houses outside for privacy. But teenagers and young adults prefer the pack house because of the endless dramas that characterize the pack house.It was mandatory for high-ranked wolves like the Alpha, Beta Gemma, and head warrior and the rest had spe
Dare To Mate Chapter 75 - THE UNSEEN MASK
Fluttering my eyes open, I looked around my surroundings and realized I was comfortably sleeping in a clearing.Darkness was slowly taking over from the brightness of the day's sun and the warm breeze was also gaining a few cold streaks as the minutes progressed. The wind picked up its tempo whispering soft melodies that compelled the leaves and tree branches to wave, clap, and dance to the tempo the soft wind set as it swifts past them going wherever it pleased.When I left the Beta earlier, I had no idea where I was going but I found my feet leading me into the woods. I kept pushing my way further into the bush as the calmness and mysteries of the dense wood kept beckoning me.My puffy eyes ached from the sunlight that shone unapologetically on everyone and everything that came under its radar.Avoiding a conscious Jace and a possibly moody Addison was a smart move and I pat myself on the back for taking the decision whenever the thought of me going to see the Alpha pops in my head
Dare To Mate Chapter 74 - DID SOMETHING HAPPEN?
I plop back down in frustration and a burning urge to shove Nate off a cliff. I wasn't always this vengeful but that man makes me want to pull my hair sometimes.Ugh, the nerves of him. Who does he think he is, retrieving my things from the nurses to lure me into his bed?I'll get it back, one way or the other but I'll get it back, he just waits.Beta Ian and Doctor Allen were still in Jace's office talking about the alpha's health. Hopefully, they'll tell me what he was down with.Without knocking, I silently sneak into the small confines of my room that still had Jace sleeping in.I trod in slow and silent steps to the huge manly figure that barely fit into the small single-sized bed that was pushed up against the wall. His face was pale but relaxed and peaceful with no trace of his signature worried frown or the smile that usually crept up his handsome face. His soft caramel mane was pressed into the soft pillow."Hey, what happened to you?" I whispered, threading my fingers throug
