FORSAKEN BY FATE : EMBRACE BY WOLVES Chapter 146: Commotion Point
ASHER’S POVChaos.It erupted the moment Callum’s scream splitted the air. The kind of scream that didn’t just carry anger—it carried betrayal, disbelief, devastation. It was the kind of scream that made the air thick with tension, heavy with something I couldn’t quite name.I barely had time to react before he stormed into the room, his furious eyes locked on Eliana.She was trembling behind me, her fingers clutching the duvet against her chest like it was the only thing anchoring her to this reality. I could hear her sharp, uneven breaths, the way her body stiffened behind me. She was scared.She should be.Callum was unhinged. I stepped forward, instinctively shielding her as he advanced. “Callum—” “Don’t you fucking Callum me!” he roared, voice cracking with rage. His chest was heaving, fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white. “You—” His furious gaze swung back toEliana. “Was this the fucking plan all along?” His voice was sharp enough to cut glass. “Reed barel

ELIANA’S POVMy body felt like it was sinking. I sat there, trembling, trying to drown out the accusations, the sharp words cutting into me like glass. My fingers curled around the duvet, gripping it so tightly my knuckles ached. My ears rang with Callum’s voice, with Malcolm’s disgust, with the unbearable weight of their judgment.I wanted to scream that they were wrong. That they had it all wrong.But my throat was too tight, and my chest burned from trying to hold back the sobs that kept clawing their way up.Mrs. Astrid stood a few feet away, her eyes pleading, her hands twitching at her sides like she wanted to come to me but knew she couldn’t. Malcolm had warned her to stay away, and she obeyed.I felt like I was suffocating.I needed to get out. I needed—A sudden wave of nausea hit me so hard that it knocked the breath from my lungs. The room tilted. My stomach twisted, clenched, and then a violent gag ripped through me.I barely had time to register it before I was bolting

CALLUM’S POVI had been holding back.I had been biting my tongue, clenching my fists, grinding my teeth so hard I thought my jaw might snap. I had been keeping it all in, trying to be the level-headed one for once.But standing in Eliana’s room, watching Asher defend her like she was some innocent little thing who needed protection, like she hadn’t just thrown herself at him, watching her run into the bathroom like she was about to puke, I fucking snapped. “You’ve got to be fucking kidding me.” My voice was cold, sharp, cutting through the tension in the room like a blade.Asher didn’t even flinch. He just stood there, blocking the doorway like he was guarding some sacred temple. Like we were intruders. Like I was the one in the wrong here. “You need to leave,” Asher said, his voice calm but firm. “Both of you. Now.”I scoffed. “You don’t get to tell us what the fuck to do, not after what we just saw.” Malcolm crossed his arms beside me, his expression unreadable but tense. “You r

ASHER’S POVI was drowning. Drowning in the weight of my own choices, in the fire burning through my veins, in the suffocating silence of the room as Malcolm and Callum sat there, too stunned to argue, too exhausted to fight me anymore.Good.They needed to understand that this wasn’t a fucking joke.I didn’t make empty threats. I didn’t say shit unless I meant it.And right now? I meant every damn word.Eliana wasn’t some prize to be thrown around, to be discarded when it was convenient. She wasn’t some criminal who needed to be judged by them, by anyone. She was a woman, and I wasn’t going to stand by while they treated her like she was anything less than human. I had to let the Blackwood and the Moonblood know that their daughter will be getting married. I pulled out my phone. The air in the room grew tighter, heavier, like they knew whatever was coming next was going to change everything. Ronan picked up on the second ring. “Asher Bennett.” His voice alone made my blood heat

CALLUM’S POVI knew something was wrong of the second I saw Mrs. Astrid drag Asher up the hallway. The way she moved, the way her grip tightened around his arm, like she was trying to contain something before it exploded—I fucking knew. And I knew it had to do with Eliana. I’d been suspicious for a week. The way she kept running to the bathroom, the way her skin paled, the way her hands trembled when she thought no one was looking. I told myself it was the stress, the recent unlocking of her wolf, the pressure of everything that had been happening. But deep down, I knew. I just didn’t want to admit it.Now, watching them disappear around the corner, I felt the truth creeping up my spine like a cold, ugly whisper.I wasn’t going to sit back and wait for them to tell me.So, I moved.Pushing myself off the floor, I made my way up the stairs, my steps light, careful. I stayed at the edge of the hallway, out of sight, my head tilted just enough to listen in.At first, their voices were

RAIDEN’S POVThe weight of the decision had settled in my chest long before I spoke the words aloud.I had spent the past two days pacing, thinking, running through every possible outcome, every consequence, every expectation that would come with taking the Alpha title. I had played out the worst of it—becoming my father, ruling with fear, letting the power twist me into something unrecognizable.But then I remembered Eliana’s voice.“You are not your father, Raiden. You never were.”She had looked at me as if she truly believed it. As if she had already seen the kind of Alpha I could be, long before I could even accept it myself.And so, as I stood before the Elders, my voice did not shake.“I’m ready.” Elder Vaughn’s sharp gaze flickered with something unreadable. “You’ve made your decision?” “Yes.” I exhaled. “I will take the title of Alpha.” Silence stretched across the dimly lit chamber. The Elders, the oldest and wisest of our kind, exchanged glances. I could feel the shift i

ELIANA’S POVI sat by the window, my fingers curled tightly around the thick fabric of my robe, my gaze distant as the soft glow of dawn painted the sky in muted shades of gold and gray. The room felt suffocating, the silence pressing against my ribs like an unbearable weight. Two days. Two whole days had passed, and Callum was still gone.At first, I thought he was bluffing. Just another one of his fits, another display of anger that would eventually simmer down. But as the hours stretched into days, the realization settled deep into my bones. He wasn’t coming back. Malcolm had barely spoken a word to us since that morning. His silence was sharp, cutting deeper than any insult or outburst ever could. He didn’t even look at me. The only person who still acknowledged my existence was Mrs. Astrid, and even she treaded carefully, her visits were short and filled with quiet, hesitant concern.I could barely eat.Every time I tried, my stomach turned, revolting against the mere thought of
Huling Na-update : 2025-02-19FORSAKEN BY FATE : EMBRACE BY WOLVES Chapter 153: The Weight of an Alpha
ELIANA’S POVThe council chamber was suffocating. A place meant for diplomacy, for order, had become a battlefield where my very existence was debated like a failed policy. The elders sat around the long oak table, their aged faces lined with skepticism, their sharp eyes dissecting my every word, my every breath.It’s been two months since my coronation as Alpha and my sham marriage to Asher—two months of torture, two months of mockery, two months of being bullied by the same pack that persuaded me to be their Alpha. Two months of being away from Reed, two months of being in a loveless marriage with Asher. Today just like every other day was going to be another day to be bullied by the Elders of my so-called packs. I had come prepared. I had studied the reports, memorized the numbers, and anticipated their arguments. I had done everything an Alpha should. But it didn’t matter. It never did. “The allocation for the western border patrols needs to increase,” I stated firmly, my hands

FORSAKEN BY FATE : EMBRACE BY WOLVES Chapter 170: Epilogue: Bound By Love, Strengthened By Wolves
FOUR MONTHS LATERThe morning sun streamed through the sheer white curtains, casting a golden glow over the grand dining hall. The long wooden table was set with an elaborate spread—pancakes drizzled with honey, fresh berries, and a steaming pot of coffee. The scent of roasted bacon and buttered toast wafted through the air, making my stomach grumble in anticipation. I leaned back in my chair, rubbing my swollen belly as I listened to the chatter around me. It had been four months since everything changed—four months since I had finally found my place, my home, my family. Reed sat to my right, his hand lazily tracing circles on my wrist as he spoke with Callum and Asher. My husband. The words still felt surreal, as if saying them would wake me from a dream. The mate bond between us had only grown stronger since our wedding, the kind of connection I once thought I would never have. “Callum can you please hand her another plate, it’s been five minutes since she asked for it,” Reed bl
FORSAKEN BY FATE : EMBRACE BY WOLVES Chapter 169: Unfocused lighten
ELIANA’S POVThe first thing I felt was warmth.Not the suffocating heat of fear or the numbing cold of rejection—just a steady, comforting warmth. It wrapped around my hand, grounding me before my mind could even piece together where I was.Slowly, I forced my eyes open.Blurry. Unfocused. The light overhead was too bright, making me wince. I blinked rapidly, willing my vision to adjust.Where am I? The ceiling above me was a bit familiar. The room smelled different, too—clean, with a faint hint of something I couldn’t quite place. Not the musky, indifferent scent of the packhouse I had come to despise. Then where…?And then it hit me. The pain. The sharp, unbearable pain that had gripped my body before I collapsed. My breath hitched as the memories flooded back—the searing agony, my vision darkening at the edges, the sound of my name being called in panic. Reed. Asher. My hand shot to my stomach. Still round. Still full. A shuddering breath escaped me. My baby. My baby was s
FORSAKEN BY FATE : EMBRACE BY WOLVES Chapter 168: The Lies That Broke Us
MALCOLM’S POVThe air in the room was suffocating.Not because of the space—we had more than enough of that in this damn house—but because of the weight of everything pressing down on us. The truth. The guilt. The realization that we had shattered something that could never fully be put back together.Callum and I talked on the way back home, but nothing could’ve prepared us for what we were walking into. Eliana was upstairs, unconscious. Reed had carried her in like she was the most precious thing in the world, like losing her would rip his soul apart. And it would.Because of us.Because we had believed what we wanted to believe. Because we had ignored the truth. Because we had taken the pieces of a story that suited our anger and ran with it—dragging Reed down with us. And now? Now, all we could do was sit in this damn living room, suffocating in our own regret while Asher paced like a man on the verge of shattering. His hands ran through his hair, gripping at the strands. His
FORSAKEN BY FATE : EMBRACE BY WOLVES Chapter 167: The Woman Who Owns My Heart
REED’S POVI didn’t think. I didn’t hesitate. I didn’t wait for permission. The moment I saw her—Eliana, crumpled in the doorway, her body trembling, her skin pale and damp with sweat—everything else ceased to exist.I was at her side before my mind could even catch up, scooping her into my arms. She was so light. Too light.Her breath was uneven, shallow, her body barely responding.“Asher,” I barked, my voice tight with urgency. “We’re taking her out here.”He was already ahead of me, moving fast, clearing the way as I carried her through the castle halls. I didn’t care about the whispers, the wide eyes of pack members watching us go. I didn’t give a damn about their judgment or their curiosity. They had failed her. They had stood by while she was beaten, humiliated, starved. And now, she was barely clinging to life because of them. I would not fail her too. We reached the car, and I slid into the backseat with her cradled against me. Her head lolled against my chest, her face
FORSAKEN BY FATE : EMBRACE BY WOLVES Chapter 166: A Mother’s Plea
ELIANA’S POVPain.It started as a dull ache, twisting deep in my stomach. I barely noticed it at first. My body had endured so much these past months—hunger, exhaustion, bruises, the sharp sting of words meant to break me. What was one more pain added to the pile?I thought maybe it was the weight of my dress, the heavy fabric pressing against my skin. That had to be it.I forced myself to stand, my fingers trembling as I reached for the laces of the gown. Each breath I took felt shallow, strained, but I ignored it. I just needed to change. Get comfortable. Then the pain would go away. I peeled off the dress, my breath catching as the cool air kissed my overheated skin. My body ached everywhere, my muscles screaming in protest. Slowly, I slipped into a loose gown, something softer, something that didn’t suffocate me. But the pain didn’t stop. I pressed a hand to my stomach. My heart pounded against my ribs. This was different. A sharp, searing pain shot through me, knocking the
FORSAKEN BY FATE : EMBRACE BY WOLVES Chapter 165: A Brother’s Confessions
REED’S POVI didn’t know what to do.My body felt too heavy, my mind too loud. I wanted to scream, to rip at my skin until I felt something other than this suffocating regret. But nothing would change. No matter how much I hurt, no matter how much I wanted to turn back time, I couldn’t undo what I’d done.She hated me.I’d called her a whore.I’d let my rage speak louder than reason, and now I had lost her in a way that I wasn’t sure I could ever fix. Eliana had always been strong, but the woman I had just seen—this new version of her—she was unshakable. And I had pushed her there. I had driven her to the point where she didn’t just refuse to listen to me; she didn’t even care to. I pressed my hands against my face, dragging them down slowly. My chest burned, and the weight in my throat grew unbearable. I tried to swallow it down, but it rose like bile, hot and acidic. I sucked in a sharp breath, but it didn’t help. Then, before I could stop it, my vision blurred. A warm line of w
FORSAKEN BY FATE : EMBRACE BY WOLVES Chapter 164: Regrets and Pleas
ELIANA’S POVThe dress felt heavier than it should have.Silk, soft against my skin, clean, free of blood—yet I still felt stained.I adjusted the cuffs of my sleeves as I walked down the corridor leading to the Grand Hall, my heels clicking against the polished floor. The path felt longer than usual, the air thick with tension, but I kept my head high. There would be no sign of weakness tonight.The investors were waiting. So was Ronan. My godforsaken Beta.The doors to the Grand Hall were already open when I arrived. The room was grand, high ceilings adorned with golden chandeliers, the long table in the center lined with crisp documents, and men and women dressed in sharp suits. Humans. Our potential business partners. My people were gathered too. The elders, the council, warriors standing at the edges like silent shadows. Asher was seated at one end, his expression unreadable. Raiden was on the opposite side, his arms crossed, eyes trained on me the second I entered. And then
FORSAKEN BY FATE : EMBRACE BY WOLVES Chapter 163: A Stranger in Her Skin
ASHER’S POVI was losing my mind.Hours had passed since she walked out, and no one knew where the hell she was.I should have stopped her. I should have gone after her the second she stepped out with that bloodied gown clinging to her like a second skin. But I hadn’t. I’d been too stunned, too fucking caught up in my own emotions to move. Now, she was out there—alone, hurt, and wearing the same damn nightgown she almost died in. My hands curled into fists as I stormed across the main hall. Every available pack member was searching for her. Even Ronan, despite his silence, was out there looking. The elders were restless. Not because they cared about her, but because of the investors meeting. “Find her, now,” one of them growled at the warriors. “We cannot afford to miss this deal over one reckless woman.” I clenched my jaw. She wasn’t just a woman. She was their Alpha. My wife. Or at least, she had been. And they still spoke about her like she was nothing. I exhaled sharply, s
FORSAKEN BY FATE : EMBRACE BY WOLVES Chapter 162: A Sudden Realization
CALLUM POV The sheets were soft. The woman beneath me, softer. She moaned against my mouth, her fingers tangled in my hair as her bare thighs tightened around my waist. I smirked, trailing kisses down the curve of her throat, my hands gliding over smooth, warm skin. “You’re insatiable,” she purred, her nails dragging lightly over my shoulders. I chuckled. “And you love it.” She didn’t argue. My lips traced down her collarbone, my fingers dipping lower when— Knock. Knock. Knock. I froze. The woman beneath me let out an irritated groan. “Ignore it.” I wanted to. Fuck, I really wanted to. But whoever was at the door was persistent. Knock. Knock. Knock.I clenched my jaw, pressing my forehead against hers with an exhausted sigh.“This better be good,” I muttered. Then, raising my voice, I barked, “Who the fuck is that?” There was a pause before a familiar voice answered. “It’s me, sir.” I sighed again. Benson. My butler. The man had impeccable timing. “What do you want?”
