CHAPTER ELEVENMr Orion's eyes spilled over, tears streaming down his face."The rogue, it tore her apart, broke her. She was bleeding, Selene. Bleeding so badly. And I... I was too scared, too weak and my wolf..... I couldn't even save her."Mr Orion's voice cracked as he continued, "She died right in my hands, Selene. I felt her life force slipping away, a surge of power leaving her body as she took her last breath. I was too young to understand what was happening, but I knew it was the end. I felt it, the moment her soul left her body."He paused, his eyes frozen on a distant memory, his voice was barely audible, and his body was shaking with sobs."I've lived with that guilt ever since, Selene. The guilt of not being able to save my mother. And I won't let it happen again. I won't lose you too." "I was just a child. My mother, she... she was taken from me. Killed by the same creatures that I'm trying to protect you from."He paused, his eyes distant, lost in the past. I could see

CHAPTER FIFTEENMR ORION; I'll admit, I initially thought I was just playing games with my maid, Selene. But as I drew her closer, something strange happened. A part of me began to stir, like a awakening from a deep slumber. It wasn't my wolf - I knew that much, since my wolf was still absent - but it felt similar. I couldn't explain it, but I felt a connection to her that went beyond mere attraction. It was as if my very being was reaching out to hers, and I couldn't resist its pull.

FATED MATES IN THE SHADOWS The Eyes In The Dark
CHAPTER SIXTEENI knew I had to be careful, i had to keep my identity hidden from prying eyes. I grabbed my black hooded sweatshirt and my black nose mask, the tools of my secret trade. I couldn't let my father suspect a thing, or he'd be furious. But I had a responsibility to my people, to keep them safe, even if my wolf was still dormant.

FATED MATES IN THE SHADOWS The Past Comes Back To Haunt
CHAPTER SEVENTEENAs I called out, a group of rogues emerged from their hiding places, as their eyes gleamed with feral intensity. They looked fierce, and ready to pounce, as though they were waiting for an instruction to strike. But it was what came next that made my heart skip a beat. A figure on horseback rode out of their midst, dressed in a black cloak that billowed behind him like a dark cloud. His face was obscured by a hood, and his presence seemed to command the attention of everyone around him.
