Forbidden Mates - A Fight For Love (Overpowered Series) Chapter Thirteen - Who Is Dimitra?
Lyra’s POV A strange restlessness, a deep searing hurt, coupled with a burning sensation in my body engulfed me since I returned to the cabin. Did it have something to do with Leandros’s lack of response to me? Was this how a wolf felt when rejected? Despite the cold wave conditions since the blizzard hit us, I felt hot! Maybe it was because I spent an exceptionally long time in the kitchen trying to get a grip on my senses. It hurt tremendously when Leandros snubbed me for the second time. I swore in my head not to kiss Leandros Vasiliou as long as I lived! I wrapped up the kitchen work and trudged over to my room for a warm shower. I was apprehensive about going to Lucania, but I had no choice now. Without thinking of the consequences, I had taken the plunge and now there was no backing out. My uncle wouldn’t forgive me if he knew what I had done. I feared his feral aura and his punishment. I knew he would punish me harshly this time. It could destroy my freedom and cut off my w
Forbidden Mates - A Fight For Love (Overpowered Series) Chapter Fourteen – My First Shift
Lyra’s POV We reached Lucania's main entry point, and Leandros warmly greeted his sentinels. They peered at me as I sat nervously inside the car. I noticed how much they liked Leandros, their gamma, as he joked with them and cleverly diverted their attention from me. After a few minutes, we were on our way to his house. With my breath stuck in my throat, I could hardly breathe, let alone utter a single word to him. He looked equally alert, and I felt guilty for putting him through this. “I’m sorry you're going through this because of me.” He chuckled instead of reacting adversely. “You change your mind every second, don’t you?” My mouth hung open at his judgment. It wasn’t baseless, yet I felt like a fool in front of him. “So? It proves nothing. My mind races all the time with a million thoughts. Everyone’s do. I weigh the pros and cons!” “After the deed is done. Shouldn’t you weigh them before taking the leap?” I scowled at him, refusing to bow down. If he considered me immatu
Forbidden Mates - A Fight For Love (Overpowered Series) Chapter Fifteen – Hera’s Back
Leandros’s POV “Why the f*ck did you have to bring her here? She’s underage, dammit! Couldn’t you have waited for her to grow up?” yelled Stavros, not understanding my point of view. I had to inform him about my return with Lyra, but ever since I arrived at his house, there’s been nothing but heated arguments. He refused to understand my situation. Could he refuse his mate if she pleaded for help?“She’s just four months short, bro. How could I leave her there when this was her plan to escape her uncle?” Stavros stopped pacing the living room and glared at me in disbelief. “What do you mean, Leandros? I’m tired of covering up for you. Why can’t you grow up and learn to be responsible?” His allegations hurt me. I might be younger to him, but I was handling a successful business all on my own. How could he consider me irresponsible? I knew I used to live a reckless life once upon a time, but I had left it all behind years ago. “I am responsible, bro. Lyra is my fated mate. When she d
Forbidden Mates - A Fight For Love (Overpowered Series) Chapter Sixteen – Locked Out
Lyra’s POV I trembled inside the room until the voices at the door receded. I knew my uncle had sent Hera to fetch me. But I didn’t want to go. I wanted to stay here in Leandros’s house forever. I could hear him putting up a fight for me. Now my trust in him escalated. I knew he wouldn’t let any harm come upon me. He wouldn’t hand me over to my uncle. I tried shifting back into my human form for the thousandth time but couldn’t. It seemed Leah didn’t want to let me in. I knew she wanted to spend more time with Leo after their meeting was disrupted. But now wasn’t the right time. It was late, and I wanted to talk to Leandros. ‘Leah, let me in!’ I scolded her in annoyance. ‘No, if I let you in, you’ll block me again. I want to spend as much time as possible with Leo!’ I grunted with desperation. How would I convince her? ‘I promise to shift often and let you spend time with Leo.’ There was silence, and I tried to shift back again. Yet I met with disappointment repeatedly. A knock
Forbidden Mates - A Fight For Love (Overpowered Series) Chapter Seventeen - Pressure Mounts
Leandros’s POV My heart sank at the sight of their furious faces. I had been so preoccupied with Lyra’s condition; I had completely forgotten about their promise to return this morning. “You’re hiding here while we were searching for you everywhere. What did you think? We wouldn’t find you?” Stavros gritted out, looking mad at me. Did he seriously think we were trying to bluff him by hiding here? “Chill, bro. Why would I flee? Lyra shifted for the first time last night and couldn’t shift back to her human form at all. I had to bring her here to seek Alex’s help. It’s as simple as that.”“Oh!” said Stavros with a frown, but Hera looked determined as she ignored me and turned to face Lyra. I could feel her tremble with fear as the threat of separation loomed over our heads. How long could I fight with Hera? “You’re coming with me.” She ordered Lyra, who gave her a weak smile without committing herself. I knew she, too, couldn’t go against Hera. The only way to stop her from dragging
Forbidden Mates - A Fight For Love (Overpowered Series) Chapter Eighteen – Going To Hay River
Leandros’s POV All the fights left my body. Ever since that fateful night, twenty years ago, I have always looked up to Zephyrus like an older sibling, a father figure. He had done a lot for me, rescued me and Alexandrios from the jaws of death, and taken us away with him to Aromania. I respected him, and loved him with all my heart. Until now, I had never resisted Zephyrus. My shoulders sagged, and I moved away, allowing them entry into my home. Their gaze went to Lyra in the living room.“She doesn’t want to go back to her uncle. You can ask her.” “She’s going back,” said Hera, making me scowl at her. “But I don’t want to go back. I’m tired of Uncle Derrick tagging around everywhere I went. I’m not allowed to make friends or go out except with a bodyguard. It’s a prisoner’s life, Hera,” protested Lyra. “You can go back and explain those things to your uncle,” said Hera sternly, but Lyra saw red. “No, I’m not going back. How can you be so selfish, Hera? How can you separate me
Forbidden Mates - A Fight For Love (Overpowered Series) Chapter Nineteen – Escaping My Uncle
Lyra’s POV I panicked at the sight of my uncle’s bodyguards closing in upon us. Was Alpha Zephyrus blind? Couldn’t he see my uncle’s wolves had surrounded them? I couldn’t see him capture us and torture us. He wouldn’t let this go. I feared his punishment more than death! An enormous luxury bus stopped before us, shielding me from my uncle’s minions. I took the opportunity and sneaked away into the departmental store behind me. With Leandros and Zephyrus busy talking to Hera, it was my perfect chance. I knew Leandros would be worried about me, but I had no other option left. Once my uncle captured us, he wouldn’t give us a chance to talk, let alone convince him. Hera knew what she was leading us into, but she was concerned only about her relationship with my uncle. Did she think handing me over to my uncle would solve her problem? He would still push her away! Our lives were too complicated. My uncle had too much on his plate to contemplate a family life with Hera. I raced towards
Forbidden Mates - A Fight For Love (Overpowered Series) Chapter Twenty – Chasing Lyra
Leandros’s POV After looking for Lyra all night, I checked into a hotel in the wee hours of the morning. Zephyrus had left with Hera after Felixe refused to accept her back. What a selfish wolf! He had his way with her, knocked her up, and refused to take responsibility for her. I wondered why Zephyrus didn’t kill him already. When I woke up this morning, the sun was already up. I checked out and followed Lyra’s scent all the way to Enterprise. The moment I entered the strategically located resort in Enterprise, I could feel her presence nearby. She was here somewhere. Obviously, the resort was expensive and Lyra was short on funds, but she could afford the numerous little lodges in the area. I combed the place down but found no trace of Lyra. She didn’t have money, and I had to find her fast. A call from Stavros stopped me in my tracks. I knew Zeph had reached home, and he had appointed Stavros to take an update on me and Lyra. I had to keep my phone switched off last night to co

Forbidden Mates - A Fight For Love (Overpowered Series) Epilogue
Lyra’s POV “Hospital? What happened to Uncle Felixe?” My heart sank as I dreaded his reply. “When he returned from work to see you gone, he wanted to fetch you from Lucania. We stopped him, but he paid no heed to us. At midnight he went to the airport informing no one. Only when we received a phone call from the traffic police, we knew he had met with an accident on the way.” I gasped in horror, clutching Leandros’s hand. “Accident? Why didn’t you inform me? Was he critical? How is he, Uncle Derrick?” Tears streamed down my cheeks as I stuttered with guilt. No wonder he didn’t call me. How could I be so selfish? How did I not understand the consequences of my actions? “He was critical, but miraculously, it was just some broken bones and whiplash. He’s undergoing rigorous therapy every day. Today Hera has taken him to the hospital for a checkup. Please come inside. They should be here any minute.” Guilt ate me up, and I dreaded meeting them. It was because of me they had to go thro
Forbidden Mates - A Fight For Love (Overpowered Series) Chapter Eighty-Two - Patching Up With My Uncle
Lyra’s POV I followed him outside to see a brand-new stunning blue Ford pickup truck on our snow-covered driveway. A gasp escaped my lips. “For you,” said Leandros, handing me the keys. “Wow! I can’t believe it, Leandros. Thank you for buying me my first car!” I had been driving my uncle’s cars or hitching a ride all my life. Now, I had a car of my own. “Oh! I’m honored to be the first and only one to buy you a car.” He opened the door and showed me the interiors. The triplets too came out to check. “Will you now come to school every day to pick us up, Mom?” asked Lucius. I smiled and nodded at them. “We’ll head to Hungry Wolf tomorrow after school.” “Yay! Can we have pizza, please?” asked Liana. “Yes, please. We’ve never eaten out,” said Lazarus. I looked at Leandros, seeking permission to take them out. Maybe he didn’t want them to eat out. “Sure, go ahead. I might join you too,” said Leandros with a chuckle. Throughout dinner, the pups couldn’t control their excitement. Hu
Forbidden Mates - A Fight For Love (Overpowered Series) Chapter Eighty-One – Achieving My Dreams
Lyra’s POV The next morning, I got sucked into the mad rush of the morning. Getting the triplets ready for school was no mean task. Leandros helped me in every way he could, and finally, all five of us were ready to go out. “Mom, are you coming to school too?” asked Lazarus, watching me from the back seat. “No, Lazer. I’ll just drop you off at school and go to the marketplace with your dad.” Lazarus preferred the nickname and calling him Lazer was a sure-shot way to please him. “Why, Mom? Are you planning to join Dad’s company?” asked Lucius. “No, son. Your mom is planning to start her own business, her own fashion house,” answered Leandros on my behalf. The boys gave me jaw-dropped looks. “What’s a fashion house?” asked Lazarus while Liana rolled her eyes at him. “Don’t you know what a fashion house is? I swear you’re dumb. It’s a shop full of clothes. Mom wants to make clothes for all of us in Lucania,” she explained, and I smiled at her simple explanation. “Yes, you’re righ
Forbidden Mates - A Fight For Love (Overpowered Series) Chapter Eighty – Mated For Life
Lyra’s POV He slid down my body, licking every curve as he traveled down my stomach. A gasp escaped my lips, wondering what he was planning to do. Breathless with excitement, I raised myself up on my elbows to see what he’d do next. This was a novel experience for me and my body went into overdrive at his slightest touch. He chuckled to see my reaction as he moved his mouth lower. “What are you doing, Leandros?” I didn’t need to wait for an answer. A deep moan escaped my mouth when he buried his face between my thighs and licked my p*ssy. I fell back on the bed as my head spun with pleasure. His mouth was too much to handle, and it sent erotic tingles all over my body. “Oh! Don’t stop! Please!” I gripped his hair to push him closer, wanting him to give me my first release. His tongue was relentless, licking and stroking my cl*t until I was on the verge of a release. The powerful thrusts of his tongue intensified, and I could feel the pressure slowly build up inside me. I ground my
Forbidden Mates - A Fight For Love (Overpowered Series) Chapter Seventy-Nine – Lyra Understands Me
Leandros’s POV It was a lazy Sunday, and we spent it in fishing and skiing with the triplets. Lyra packed up enough food to have a picnic by the frozen lake in our backyard. The pups enjoyed a sunny day outdoors until they were exhausted. It was something they had never done in the last four years, as Sunday meant pack meetings for me. Therefore, it was a relief that Zeph had wrapped up all meetings on Saturday. It left me free to enjoy with my family. Lyra’s laughter and exuberance were so infectious that the pups and I caught on by the end of the day. The result of our fun-filled outing was amazing. The pups bonded with Lyra so well that they started addressing her mom. My mind was now at peace seeing my pups find their mom in Lyra. She deserved it for everything she did for the pups ever since she moved in. She had no anger or resentment for having to look after the triplets. Although it was a monumental task, she did it spontaneously, with a smile on her face. Taking care of the
Forbidden Mates - A Fight For Love (Overpowered Series) Chapter Seventy-Eight – Leandros’s Inhibitions
Lyra’s POV Growling in his throat, my mate’s hot, wet mouth covered the mark, licking and sucking wildly. It set my body on fire, as moisture leaked from my p*ssy, soaking my panties. I cried out as he tortured me with his wicked mouth, stroke after stroke. Arching against him, I ground my hips against his thick erection! The mark was like an external erogenous zone! I sucked in a deep breath and pushed at his chest. “My turn now!” I muttered, controlling the urge to take off my clothes and ride him like there was no tomorrow. I pushed him down on the bed while he watched me with an amused look on his face. “Are you planning to really mark me, little mate?” The annoying nickname urged me to prove him wrong. I had to prove I wasn’t little anymore. Yes, I was inexperienced, but definitely I wasn’t a little wolf. “It’s time to prove I’m not little anymore!” I lay between his legs and reached out to his neck. His breath hitched as he gazed at me with delirious eyes! “Interesting! I’m
Forbidden Mates - A Fight For Love (Overpowered Series) Chapter Seventy-Seven – A Mark Of Love
Lyra’s POV Before I could get up, he crashed his mouth to mine, sitting on the sofa and pulling me onto his lap. It was the kiss I had been dying for since the fleeting kiss he gave me on Hera’s birthday. I had no idea what had stopped him from kissing me last night, but I was glad he overcame all his inhibitions. He clasped the back of my head, holding me still while his tongue worked on my lips. I wrapped my arms around his neck and melted against his body, sinking into his warm embrace. His mouth was hard, hot, and possessive as it plundered my secret recesses, plunging deep into my parted mouth. I sighed, surrendering to him. His scent was driving me insane. The kiss was enough to make me want him to the point of no return. Then all I could do was contemplate shoving him down on the sofa, pulling his pants down, and riding him until we both climaxed! I pulled him closer and kissed him back, running my hands around his broad back to feel the muscles rippling under my touch. I ha
Forbidden Mates - A Fight For Love (Overpowered Series) Chapter Seventy-Six – Lyra Bonds With The Triplets
Leandros’s POV A soft pat on my cheek woke me up from the best sleep of my life. I opened my eyes only to find Liana hovering over me. “Wake up Dad! We’re late for school!” I sat up with a start and looked out of the window. The bright morning sun made me blink with panic. How did I sleep so late? “Gosh, Liana! How will we ever get ready today?” I jumped out of bed and then I remembered Lyra. Where was she? Hadn’t she slept with me last night? I remembered confessing everything to her. She promised to stay with me forever! Was it all a dream? Or did she leave me again? Maybe she had second thoughts this morning and left before I woke up. “Dad, what are you thinking about? You need to get us ready!” prodded Liana with a groan. I quickly freshened up and rushed out to the kitchen. To my immense surprise, I found the boys in the breakfast nook in the kitchen, tucking into eggs, bacon, and toast! Liana was busy scolding them for not getting ready yet while they turned a deaf ear to he
Forbidden Mates - A Fight For Love (Overpowered Series) Chapter Seventy-Five – Staying By My Mate
Lyra’s POV He released a staggering breath and got up as if dismissing me. After knowing everything about him, didn’t he realize I was here to stay? I wouldn’t go anywhere now. “I’m sorry you had to go through so much, Leandros! Why didn’t you correct me before?” I didn’t budge from his bed. I intended to stay here in his house and share his bedroom with him. After his confession, there wasn’t a doubt about what I wanted to do. I would surrender myself to my mate for life. “I was mentally disturbed after the abuse. I wasn’t sure you would want such an abused mate. You didn’t deserve a mate like me. Your uncle hated me and pushed me away from you. I went into a severe depression, but thankfully my close friends stood by me. The pups depended on me and I bounced back only for them. You wanted to know the truth, and I bared my soul in front of you. I would understand if you don’t want to be with me. I swear I won’t bear a grudge. You’re free to move on, Lyra.” With his back to me, he
