Fated For The Alpha's Redemption Chapter 17:The Missing Truth
Claudia Silence should be his middle name but this time he was shocked. Embarrassed and curious all at once. Was the name so forbidden that I have committed a sin by mentioning it? "Where the fuck did you hear that from?""It doesn't matter, and that isn't the answer to my question." I held my ground. Despite being close to Marcel, the authority he claimed to have been what feared me. I began to question if I should have asked. It was in the way he looked at me, like I just conjured some old demons. We were at the balcony and the chills from the cold air made things worse. I couldn't imagine what it meant to him but from what I saw, it was pure pain. Pain I had never seen before. He shifted in his seat; "Inessa." A sigh followed, his shoulders stiffened and jaws remained clenched. Marcellus was the kind of person that reacted to the frustration he felt, staring at him intently, it might not be long before he transferred his aggression towards him. I blinked, turned off the assumptio

Claudia.Now, I know the reason why you don't dig up old ghosts. It comes back to haunt you. Just as it was haunting Marcellus, I was hurting too. I am a romantic, my mother told me I give my heart away too easily, and I might get hurt. To see him shattered like this only made things worse for me. I didn't know how to console him? How do you console a man who hasn't met anything true for a long time? Just pain. I think the question should be what was really haunting him? The fact he killed her or the fact he loved her, and he ended up in her bad books as much as she did? I began to direct every thought towards myself. What if he was quick to kill me too if something happens? Maybe I was framed because I knew I would not intentionally commit a crime against him. The mate bond between us was becoming stronger, and it was difficult to resist him, the heat was going to set us ablaze soon."Maybe she didn't want to kill you. Maybe something else happened?" The sadness in his eyes were only

Claudia.I was still hung up on the night we had together. Every time I thought about it., I smile. My grin was so big that it would reach my ears. There was no amount of happiness that felt like this. My eyes were still very much closed but when I opened it, Marcellus was still sleeping. I kept caring About his it was going to affect him, he didn't show any sign of weakness even in his state. Marcellus was very commanding and through everything that occurred since I got here, he was the strongest person I know. I watched him take one breath after another like he was struggling to breathe. I was about to move my body to the other side of the bed when my hand was wrapped around his. I tried dragging my wrist, but it felt stuck for a reason. I lifted my wrist up to see a shiny red thread, wrapping our wrists together as one. "What the hell?"I heard him chuckle. "I knew you'd freak out.""Let me guess, you were not sleeping all this while." He opened his eyes as his lips stretched into

Claudia "I am not going to leave you." My voice cracked, I felt my lower lips trembled. He had no right to demand that from me not after the night that we had. Not after everything that we have fought through to get here. I didn't want to leave him alone to die, to give in. I could see how tired he was, and he might want peace but the pain coming from the bond was entirely much. My lips parted, about to speak. I heard footsteps as they stopped at the entrance. It was Nate and Cassius. "Take her out of here. I don't want to see her." Marcellus ordered them, the shock in their eyes meant nothing to Marcellus. His expression was stern, looking away. Their legs were still fixed in one place. Marcellus glared at them, his eyes turned bloodshot, the small dark veins under his eyes were like tattooed under his eyes. "I said take her out of here!" He growled. I bet anyone outside the estate could hear him, the thunderous growl sent chills up in my spine. I wanted nothing more than to be wit

Claudia "Why her?!"The words reached my ears before I even realized I was eavesdropping. I froze mid-step, the pail of water in my hands tilting precariously as I strained to hear more. The Alpha’s deep voice rumbled through the wooden walls of the great hall, its authority unmistakable.“She’s the eldest,” another voice replied, calm and measured. Likely Beta Rhys, the Alpha’s ever-loyal second-in-command. “Her lineage may not be pure, considering she's your illegitimate daughter but the alliance will outweigh her... deficiencies.”My blood ran cold. What alliance? What deficiencies? I eased closer to the partially open door, careful not to make a sound. The sound of chairs scraping against the stone floor followed, as if someone had stood.“This decision is final,” the Alpha said. “It’s for the good of the pack.”A third voice chimed in, older and raspier, probably one of the elders. “She’s of age. What better use can she provide than to be a sacrifice for the good of our pack. Th

Claudia "So, this is what it feels like to be dressed like a lamb before slaughter," I muttered, staring at the reflection in the cracked mirror. For the first time in my life, I looked like a princess. A royal blue gown adorned with intricate silver embroidery hugged my figure, its hem brushing the floor like cascading waves. My hair was swept into an elegant bun, with tiny pearl pins catching the light. Even my hands, after all those years of scrubbing floors, were softened with scented oils.It was ironic, really. I was nothing more than the Alpha’s dirty little secret—his illegitimate daughter. Yet here I was, dressed as if I belonged to the very bloodline that scorned me.“Don’t slouch, Claudia,” came my stepmother’s shrill voice from the doorway. Her lips curled in a way that made my skin crawl. “You’ll embarrass us enough as it is.”I straightened my posture but said nothing. I’d learned long ago that my silence was the only thing keeping me from constant punishment. Lyria an

Claudia "This isn’t what I agreed to," I muttered under my breath as the car rumbled over the uneven road. Towering the gates of the Bloodfang estate loomed before us, massive and foreboding. I swallowed hard, steeling myself for what awaited me inside. I have never known anything outside the walls of my father's pack. I longed to see what it looked like, I yearned to be free. For years, I dreamed of leaving everything behind. It wasn’t a home—it was a cage, a place where I was constantly reminded of what I wasn’t: a daughter, a sister, a pack member. Now, I had finally escaped, but the freedom I craved felt like a distant illusion.I shifted uncomfortably in my seat, stealing a glance at the elder who had accompanied me. His lips were pressed into a tight line, his eyes fixed ahead. Not a word had been spoken between us since we departed.The Limo came to a halt, and I stepped out, my legs trembling beneath the weight of my gown. The Bloodfang estate was massive, its stone walls ca

Claudia “Stay back,” I warned, though my voice betrayed my fear. The rustling grew closer, and I backed up until I hit the door. My fingers fumbled for the handle, desperate to escape, but it wouldn’t budge. “Who’s there?” I asked again My voice trembled, betraying the confidence I tried to muster.“You should know,” he said, the edge in his tone sharp and cutting. “Or are you just as clueless as they said you’d be?” The voice was deep and raspy, slicing through the silence like a blade. I froze, my fist still midair. I hadn’t expected an answer—certainly not from inside the room. My breathing hitched as I turned, pressing my back against the door for support.I squinted into the suffocating darkness, but all I could see were shadows stretching endlessly. The faint rustle of movement echoed in the room, but it was impossible to pinpoint where it came from.“Are you... my husband?” I asked hesitantly, the words foreign and heavy on my tongue.A low chuckle emerged from the shadows, co

Fated For The Alpha's Redemption Chapter 16: A Burden
Claudia I kept thinking about what Nyx had said and the way to help him. I had no power left inside me to fight this curse on my own. There was an itch that I am doing this for myself and there is an iota if that that were true. I didn't want to be driven under the shelter of darkness and madness just because the curse had taken hold of Marcel. I don't even want to imagine what it was going to be like hanging on to the thread of sanity. Everything Nyx had said kept restructuring itself into me like, there was something I could do. Well there was, but I couldn't imagine how to summon the moon goddess and pleaser case to her. I don't know how to do that, knowing my lineage. I am the illegitimate daughter of Alpha Gideon and as a weak wolf there was no fight left in me to summon the moon goddess they have to be another way. I sighed, already having a slight headache thinking about this too much. On one hand I was fearful for his life, and I was scared for the bond we share. I couldn't

Claudia The whole staff heard our voices as soon as we got home. Marcellus didn't want to let go because my refusal to speak was a slap on his face. I didn't get why he was hell bent on finding out what Nyx had said. I didn't want him to know anything else, seemed he had a tendency to pick a fight with anything he didn't agree with. I was stressed and my head was banging from the excessive words I have managed to use these few hours just sitting with him. We finally landed in our room and Marcellus pulled me close to him as I tried to move away from him. "Is there anything I need to know that she might have said?" I sighed, not knowing what else to say. "Whatever Elder Nyx might have said to me is none of your business. You weren't there when she was speaking. I don't see why I should tell you." I said in a low voice. "Marcellus, please I am tired. I need to rest." "You were the one that talked about lying to you and yet here you are trying to do that to me. You may not regard me
Fated For The Alpha's Redemption Chapter 14: Giving Commands
Claudia Nyx reminded time and time again that I would not be able to do anything about giving Marcel more time. I knew my efforts might be in vain but I didn't want to stop trying. I was still shocked for the fact that I was imprinted up on without my knowledge and despite being mates out soul was bound together. It was still a shock. Maybe I am trying to save my own head from the doom of madness... But I couldn't stand and watch him die. I opted to go into the woods in Nyx's estate to clear my head. She assured me that it was safe. After the experience I just had, you would think that I wouldn't be able move but someone with Nyx's assurance closely knitted in my heart, I have nothing to fear. I guess. As I wandered into the woods I heard footsteps, quiet but abrupt, before I turned to see who it was,my name hung on the air in a soft whisper. "Claudia." Marcellus. I turned and saw the concern written on his face. That's the height of emotion I have seen on him other than excruciatin

ClaudiaElder Nyx has not said anything. I had a feeling, whatever she might want to say was something I shouldn't know and shouldn't be even be asking. But I was helpless, my soul is bound to a man that is a living corpse. Something I never even used was going to happen. I didn't know how to react. I felt something sinister was going on underneath, and I owed it to myself to find out what it was truly. Marcellus would not tell me anything, and yet I was living in an estate where everyone harbored secrets and made plans on how to finish him off and kill me in the process. I was too relaxed before now but after this incident, my eyes were opened to the possibility that Darius was behind these and if care was not taken, whatever he has planned would prevail."You are not saying anything Nyx." I prompted her as her fingers held tightly to the cane she was holding. "I don't know why everyone is after Marcel...but I need to know what I am up against.""I know. It is just too heavy seeing h

MarcellusThe weight of my illness pressed against my bones, each movement a test of my will. I had returned from the patrol with Nate, exhaustion settling deep in my chest, but there was no relief to be found. Claudia was still missing. It had been over a day since our argument, her absence gnawed at me like a wound refusing to heal. I did not know if she had left out of anger or if something more sinister had taken her away. I leaned heavily against the chair in my chambers, my breath shallow. Nate stood before me, his face lined with worry. "The maids swear they saw her last with Darius," he said, his voice low. "He was scolding her."The mention of my brother filled my mouth with bitterness. Darius had always been a thorn in my side, the embodiment of everything I was not. Healthy, strong, ruthless, he carried the power of our family name without the burden of sickness. I forced myself upright, gripping the armrests with trembling hands. "And she has not been seen since?"Nate sho
