Chapter 50 - Seren
Last Updated:
2025-02-20 17:16:27I had lost count of the amount of drinks me and the girls had drunk, and we were now on the dance floor, along with my Mum and my brother, all laughing and joking. I had been loving my night so far, despite the awkward encounter with Lachlan at the beginning. So many people had come to wish me a happy birthday, and there were so many gift bags building by the DJ decks it was unreal!
Sadly, there had been no sight of Alejandro so I had admitted defeat and resigned myself to the fact that he had chosen not to come. Maybe he was choosing to avoid me. And could I truly blame him? After the shit show of last time he had let himself get close to me, I don't think so. So, instead, I had decided fun with my friends and family was what was needed. There was plenty of laughter happening as my Mum was drinking too, and she, despite her werewolf genes did not handle her drink well. I loved watching her dancing after a few drinks, and it seemed so did my friends.

Cole and I were enjoying a beer, as Aunt Sophia had decided she wanted to spend some time with my Mum after all. That may have had something to do with the few too many drinks it appeared she had drunk, but it meant I got a little time with my friend, so I would not complain. And, seeing my Aunt when she was tipsy, was always amusing. Being called moody while being strangled with a hug, and poked in the face as she told me she loved me, however was not…So once I had made my escape from ym Aunt, we made our excuses and fled, leaving my Mum to handle her friend. I was sure she was used to it, and Cole and I had found a quiet bench, placing our feet up on the small stools that were set nearby. Likely for others to sit on, but they were making good foot rests right now.Cole sighed heavily. “Thank the goddess for that. I needed to get away!”I chuckled. “From your Mum, or your sister?”“All of them.” He said with an

Alejandro wasted no time in taking me to the dance floor, just as he had asked of me when he came to meet me, and from that moment, he had been as charming as I think it is possible for a guy to be. His hands soon slipped to my hips, and I was a ball of nerves; but he was making jokes to make me giggle. With every fancy dance move he attempted, I felt myself begin to relax in his arms.He complimented me, he stroked my hair back, as his deep dark gaze locked upon mine, filling my belly with butterflies. With a gentle stroke of my cheek, he hooked his hand behind my head and pulled me slowly closer to him. Suddenly his lips found mine, and my body felt like it was melting. His kisses were intense. Full of intensity and need, and as his tongue parted my lips, I didn't think I wanted him to stop. His hand slipped into my hair, as he pulled me a little closer, allowing his tongue to kiss me a little deeper, goosebumps spreading over my body as he did. Maia snarled angrily in resp

Alejandro led me from the training field, my hand held firmly in his. I found myself smiling as I looked across to his handsome face. He had turned my birthday around for me in the end. It had sure not gone the way that I had hoped earlier in the day, that was for certain, but being treated so sweetly all evening has been quite unusual, I have to admit, and I think I might have enjoyed it.Alejandro caught me looking at him, and he winked, bringing a hint of colour rushing to my cheeks. “You liking what you see there, angel?” He teased, and I rolled my eyes.“Whatever.” I stuck my tongue out at him, and he chuckled, using my hand to pull me a little closer.“Aww, you wound me.”I smiled. The playful back and forth had gone on for a lot of the evening, and again, I think I have enjoyed it. It has become quite easy between us. “Is that your way of trying to get me to kiss it better?” I joked,

The party had been just as I had expected. Shit. Exactly why I had never wanted to attend. Watching Seren enjoy herself had been uncomfortable to say the least. And that had been before the fuckwit of a warrior had arrived. Once he was there groping her at every given opportunity it only became worse. But, for some inexplicable reason, I found myself staying. To begin with, it had been because I had been worried I had drawn suspicion to myself from my friend, and did not want questions being asked. Then, as time went on, the drinks were flowing freely, and I guess I stayed because it became easier, and a part of me stayed to keep an eye on things...Even when the majority of the other guests had left, I stayed. Lingering near the drinks table, finishing most of the bottled beer that sat upon the table. I mean, it was there to be drunk, right? My Mum had long gone, having taken home my very drunk, and very sleepy Aunt Sophia. Now both crashed out at Aunt Soph

My whole body shook. Total shock had taken over me at what had just happened. That was not the guy I had been enjoying spending time with. Alejandro had always been so charming. He had spent quite some time trying to convince me to even spend time with him... never for a moment had he come across in a negative way. Surely tonight had to be the affect of the drink, right?My body shuddered at the thought of what he had just done... or more accurately what he so nearly had done. Clearly, nobody is who you truly think they are. Anyone is capable of changing to gain what they want, I realized with a sinking heart. I did not want to see him again. Though, for the time being at least, that was not going to be an issue. Alejandro had wasted no time in running when Lachlan had given that opportunity. He would have been a fool not to, listening to the anger in Lachlan's voice. Warrior or not, Alejandro would be no competition for Lachlan. I just hoped when the morning came, they dealt with him

I could feel Seren all but trembling within my arms, but I knew that effect was not down to me. That warrior she had near surrendered herself to had broken her. Had I not arrived when I did he could have taken everything from her. My whole body was trembling too, and it was not in fear like Seren’s. The trembling coursing through my body was in rage. Yet as Seren’s big brown eyes looked up at me, I could feel no anger toward her.Yes, she had been foolish. But, I hated hearing her call herself stupid. This was more a man trying to take advantage of a naive she-wolf. That warrior had known exactly what he was doing, and that infuriated me.“You need to be more careful, Ren.” I mumbled, seeming unable to look away from those eyes of hers. They were looking at me with such need right now. “We don’t want you getting hurt.” I told her. Regardless of any resentment I may feel toward her, the thought of Seren getting hurt really did t

I walked alongside Lachlan in almost a trance. The dealthly silence that sat between us beyond uncomfortable. Maia whimpered heavily at the way our mate had all but pushed us away, but I cannot say I was surprised at how he had reacted. The appearance of that wolf out on his midnight run was likely a relief for Lachlan. It had saved him from a moment of madness. How Lachlan had been acting had been so out of character it had taken me by surprise. It had felt so nice, and I guess, you could say, I had been swept away by the moment. But, I knew the second Lachlan reacted how he did he had regretted his actions...‘Do not say that!’ Maia whimpered again. ‘Did you not see the way he looked at us? He wanted us…’I sighed. I was not about to allow my wolf to try to convince me of things that simply were not there. Of course she was going to hope for our fated mate to want us. That was what every wolf would want. It was natura

Well, the vulnerable Seren did not last long at all, I have to say. She was back to sniping at me before we had even stepped foot inside of my house! Tyr was on at me about taking care of her, and as we walked, I could see such pain within her eyes, I was not able to be harsh with her. I knew my wolf was right. She had been through enough tonight, and needed somebody to be there for her. So, knowing her own mother was likely in no fit state to care for her tonight, and knowing her brother was currently ensconced in the arms of a random she-wolf right now, I thought the decent thing to do was to offer to be there for her and allow her to crash at mine.But, having her sniping at me that way again, I was truly beginning to doubt if it was the right thing or not. Yet, we were already arriving at the house. Not a time to turn Seren away now. I would just have to tolerate her. It wasn't like I wasn't an expert in that already. I walked into the house, and turned to look back at he

It had tore me apart hearing that Seren was leaving pack. When I had been all but forced to agree to not seeing her, I was comforted by the fact that Seren was in pack. She was being cared for by our own doctors, and some of the best around at that. Plus, she had our families visiting her. I knew, despite not being able to see her, she was close, and she was well. Hearing she was well enough to be discharged from the pack hospital had been a rush of relief, of course it had, but that had soon been replaced by a flood of pain the moment Marcus told me that he had permitted for her to go and continue her studies in the city. He was allowing her to leave me. Leave our pack. And, I believed his reasoning for that was because of how I had treated her.Marcus was my friend, but he was also a friend to Seren. I believed, considering the way in which he acted around me of late that he found himself torn between the two friendships... perhaps rightly so. We had alway
Fated but Hated Chapter 102 - Seren
Marcus and Cole had come to the hospital to collect me. I was finally able to leave. Relief was not a word to describe it. I did not know how to explain it, for it simply felt like time had been paused, yet I had been here for an eternity. The same four walls of a room begin to feel like a prison despite the fact you are not being forced to stay there. I think I knew every part of that room in far too much detail. But, the moment had come for me to be discharged with my body all but healed.There were still the occasional niggling pain, or ache depending upon how I moved, but it was nothing I could not cope with. The doctors had reassured me I was well on the way to a full recovery. I had been told I had been lucky. But, I did not feel lucky. Far from it. I had chosen not to consider all of that though. I had a future to focus upon, and thanks to Marcus, his mate and my planning, I was able to do that.“Still don’t agree with this.” Cole grumbled as h
Fated but Hated Chapter 101 - Lachlan
It was destroying me not doing as I had wanted, and as I had promised and, being by Seren’s side as she healed. I had desperately wanted to prove to her I was not the monster she likely created within her mind… or my bad behaviour and treatment had created. I wanted to prove to her I could be a good man. But, I was respecting the wishes of my Aunt, and more so my mother.These were the women that had been a greater part of my life growing up, and I respected their opinions as much as I did my Uncle as a former Alpha. And, as much as it hurt, I knew they may well be right. Seren did deserve better. My wolf had been right all along and my bad choices, be it through lack of information or not, had caused me to lose my mate. Now I was faced with dealing with the consequences.Tyr had retreated to the nether reaches of my mind. It was strange to say I even missed his sly digs that I had grown accustomed to. The lingering that he had done previ

I had laid within the now familiar walls of my hospital room looking around, losing all sense of time. I could not help but wonder where Lachlan had got to. Yes, he had said he would give me space, but what exactly did that mean? I assumed, giving everything else he had said he would be returning later that day. Maybe the next. But here we were, or here I was, days later and there was still no sign of him. I would not lie, it hurt.And, I felt like a fool for ever allowing it to hurt. Not to mention to have allowed, once again, my hopes to be built around anything Lachlan Lamont had said or done. He said he could change. He said he was a good guy. All things were pointing to nothing having changed. And, forgiven or not, I was finding it increasingly harder to view him as a good guy. Despite me craving the company of Lachlan, I still had company; and plenty of it too. My Mum continued her dai

I had returned to my family home, a place I had not returned in the days since Seren’s accident, and took a shower. The warmth of the water feeling like a welcome relief upon my aching body. Having slept within that hard and uncomfortable hospital chair for far too many nights my body was not doing too well, and I feared Tyr was becoming weaker.His communication with me was lesser. And it had been sometime since I had last shifted. My priorities of course had been sitting by the bedside of Seren until she awoke. Now that had occurred I could try to take care of both her and myself. Begin to put things right. I knew we may have a long road ahead, but I swore I had seen something within her eyes when I mentioned proving myself to her. I just hoped I was capable of it.Fate had always been something in the back of my mind. Part of our life cycle, but something for the future. Nothing I was in a hurry for, I guess you could say. I was always a bit

Well I had not been wrong, the moment I closed my eyes to get some rest, my Mum had been in, And now she would not leave me alone. In the end I had to ask the doctor to tell her to leave because I needed some peace. My entire body had ached and my eyes felt so heavy. But more than anything my heas banging from the amount of talking from my mother. Maybe there were advantages to being in that odd state between being here and not. Because it meant I didn’t have to listen to my Mum telling me all the pack gossip. And, having been unconscious for days, it meant there was even more to catch up on!After finally being able to relax a little and settle to some silence my peace was disturbed once more as my older brother strode into my room. He looked anxious and on edge. Oddly there had been little else but silence since his arrival because Cole was sitting by my bed now, watching me through narrowed eyes and barely speaking a word. I was unsure why he had co
Fated but Hated Chapter 97 - Seren
It broke my heart hearing Lachlan be so open and honest about things to me. In all the years he and I have known one another never do I recall him talking so freely with me. I felt honoured he trusted me to share some of the things he had, because I doubted many others knew of the things he spoke of. And, while the things he said may have hurt, in my mind there was nothing to forgive.I never knew he had struggled that way. I certainly never knew he had felt so alone. Growing up side by side, being so close, yet I was clueless of his struggles. Guilt flooded my body that he had endured this alone. I knew how much he loved his Mum, and how close they were, so hearing him say he had to witness her fall apart in secret was soul destroying. He was a young boy. But this was through no fault of my Aunt's either. Circumstance had brought them to this. Lachlan would have been struggling with the loss of his Dad and needed support, and likely feared he could not seek

My body once again felt like it was frozen in time as Seren lay there looking over at us. Her big brown eyes looking like they were focused upon me, while I was vaguely aware of Marcus calling her name. After everything she had come around. She was finally awake.I felt a swift punch to my arm. “You lost all fucking ability to think straight?” Marcus muttered, snapping me back to reality. “Going to mark her and then can't fucking talk now she is here.”Seren attempted to shake her head but I noticed her wince in pain, her hand moving toward her neck, and she stopped herself, every movement seemingly hurting her. I moved across the short distance from where we stood to her bed. “Don’t move Ren, if it hurts stay still, yeah?” I urged her. “Do you want some water? I imagine you must be thirsty.”“Maybe we should check with the doctor first.” Marcus said. “Damn woman, you had u
Fated but Hated Chapter 95 - Seren
I felt like I was drifting. Floating. In a state of nothingness. I did not like it. But I did not know how to get out. One moment I had been striding down the main street of our local city, planning the first leg of my journey. As well as having picked up an application form for the local university. Then I was here. Stuck.It had been one hell of a day, but I had took on board the things Lachlan had said. Even researched it a little too. Being apart from your fated mate was going to be difficult, but then, being near him was likely going to be even harder, so I decided I would allow myself the trip I wanted. Not the long, travelling trip I had been planning, but a shorter, more of a vacation sort of trip, with additional ones in the future. Before enrolling for further education upon my return. Living away from pack for most of the week, returning home at weekends. Sort of the best of both worlds. Giving me the much needed space I was craving, as well as be
