Forsaken Mate Quinn Iverson - 3
The dam breaks loose and hot tears spill down Quinn’s face. An unholy wail breaks from her chapped lips, and she grovels at my feet.“Please! Please let me talk to Alpha Thane!” she cries, her hands pressed together as if she is kneeling in prayer.Rafe laughs. “As if.”“You have to make him let me go, Makayla. Please, if I can’t speak with him, you can! I know he’ll listen to you,” she begs, her entire body trembling with each word.“And why should I do that?”Quinn raises her head at my question, glaring for a second before fixing her face into a pathetic, teary pout. Does she really think I’m buying this piss-poor act of hers? Stars above.“Please, I have nowhere to go!”“What about your beloved pack? The Superior River Crest that you so vehemently defend?” I press. Hopefully, she won’t pick up on my scheme.“I… was forced out.” Her lie isn’t convincing, but I’ll take the bait.“You? The Future Luna forced out? Who would dare?”Full of new vigor, Quinn rises to her knees and knots
Forsaken Mate Precious Seconds
Rafe and I exit the cells hand in hand, while Quinn’s echoing wails of fury are muffled by the cell door. My body relaxes with every step we take away from her; I feel the ice in my veins melt away at his touch.We leave out of the underground prison the same way we entered, nodding to the guard at the entrance before locking them inside and ascending the stairs. It’s a different kind of quiet than before. Rafe’s energy is relaxed and he’s practically beaming beside me, squeezing my hand every few steps.“What?”“Nothing.” He grins down at me.“Tell me,” I press, matching his smile with my own.He releases my hand, wrapping his arm around my waist and pulling me into his side. “I’m happy.”“Because I didn’t break down and let her pathetic words hurt me?”“No—I mean, yes. That’s also wonderful,” Rafe chuckles. “But also, this was the first time you…”Rafe stops in the middle of the empty packhouse atrium. The low afternoon light cuts through the stained glass windows and paints his fac
Forsaken Mate Attack on Io
I’m not alone for long. Shortly after Rafe leaves, dozens of people start pouring into his office to take shelter from yet another rogue attack. Their frantic, worried murmurs do nothing to ease my own fear. I need to be out there with him, where I can make sure nothing happens to him!Pacing around the room, I fight with myself. My inner voice cries out hysterically all the ways everything could go wrong. Everything I could lose. For all my suffering and heartache in River Crest, I never had to feal with feeling like this. I never had anything to lose besides my life. Now, I have everything.And I want to keep it.“Calm down, Makayla,” Christobel sighs, grabbing hold of my hand while I’m mid-step. She’s surprisingly strong and stops me in my tracks. “Rafe is strong. I know you know this. Don’t worry about him.”“Logically, I know that a few rogues are nothing compared to my mate. I know that he’s stronger than almost any other wolf I’ve ever met. But…” My voice trails off. There are
Forsaken Mate Author's Note
Hello my friends! I apologize for not updating this week. There were some unexpected, yet happy changes in my family and I've been with my family out of town celebrating. This time off is also helping me get my outlines for the final arc of Forsaken Mate. That's right, we are nearing the end of this story. I want to go out with a bang and make sure it is interesting for you all. I really appreciate all the support you've given me for my first GoodNovel story. I'll be sure to make a proper thank you at the end!! Until then, Elizra
Forsaken Mate The Future Luna
When the smoke cleared, there were twenty-seven rogues in total who were either killed or apprehended and are currently being questioned. This was the largest wave in Rafe’s reign as Alpha. And the most destructive, as well.Several families were left displaced after the enemy forces destroyed their homes, setting fires and throwing explosives at load bearing walls. Thankfully, none of our people were injured or killed, but that doesn’t stop this from being one of the worst attacks in Io’s history.Several warriors tried to stop me as I fought for Io. They begged me to return to the packhouse, but how could I? When my territory was under active threat from a malicious enemy hellbent on causing mass destruction?Even now, they stand awkwardly behind me, muttering under their breaths about how the Alpha is going to have their hides. My heart goes out to them, it really does. But the displaced pack members need to be fed and given care. That is part of my responsibility as a warrior and
Forsaken Mate The Mark
The first celebration happened right there in the auditorium. People brought out instruments and food, there were toasts made in my honor, and tears shed as the story of my tragic upbringing was shared. When it was revealed to everyone that I am Beta Nemora’s lost child, the celebration exploded with joyous applause.I’ve never been hugged so much in my life. It got to the point where my arms were tired from being squeezed so tightly. I couldn’t tell who was more excited for me to become the Luna, Rafe or the rest of the pack. My mate stood back, looking pretty pleased with himself while I struggled under the pressure of so much love and appreciation. At least, he did until it became more obvious that his packmates weren’t going to release me any time soon.His eyes darkened and a grumpy scowl overtook his features when the thirtieth male warrior scooped me up in a bear hug, lifting me from the ground and cheering for my safe return to Io.Rafe ended up prying him off of me and throwi
Forsaken Mate The Morning After
I don’t recall falling asleep. But I’m awoken by Christobel and a number of attendants rushing in to tend to me. The sun casts the room in a warm, golden glow. Rafe’s scent lingers in the air, but is slowly fading, much to my heartbreak. He must have slipped out earlier and left me to sleep in.“We’ve prepared a bath for you, Luna,” one of the attendants announces, head bowed. I don’t recognize her. I don’t recognize any of the women clamoring around me, eagerly pushing to be ahead of the group. Christobel’s kind eyes shine with pride as she stands at attention in front of all the rest.“Now ladies, I only agreed to let you assist me today because you were all so eager to serve our new Luna,” she declares, silencing the commotion. “If you continue to behave in such an immature fashion in front of Luna Makayla, I will dismiss all of you and serve her myself as I’ve always done.”Ah, I see.She’s showing off our close relationship. I struggle to conceal a smile. I’ve never seen this sid
Forsaken Mate Rebecca
The downside to being all dolled up for a celebration is limited range of motion and the inability to run full speed when you need to.Trying to keep up with Thane and Christobel is a challenge in four inch heels and this flowing dress. I’ve given up on keeping my hair looking pristine and neat, the curls flow wildly behind me as we surge toward the west gate.Appearances don’t matter. All that matters is getting to whoever is waiting before Rafe does. Not that I care what he does to them, I just don’t want to beg him for permission to see them in the dungeon again. And I’m not overly fond of the idea of going back down there anyway.Plus, if Quinn’s sudden arrival is any indication, calming him down for hours and days after will wear me out. My legs are shaking as is and my lower back is killing me. As much as I love him and our time together, I would rather not have a body cast on for my Luna ceremony.Please, Goddess, don’t let it be Wesley or Deadrick.My silent prayer is answered

Forsaken Mate Wedding Bells - Finale
If looks could kill, Erick and Marco would be dead right now. The hideous glare on Wesley’s face paints a stunning portrait of the man I know him to be. Now, everyone else finally gets to see him for the hateful, lying, psychopath that he truly is.His façade of innocence melts away and all that’s left is a shaking, contemptable man with nothing to lose and a singular goal. I can feel his wicked intentions vibrating in the air. It’s obvious. And pathetic. Anyone else would have slumped and begged for mercy. But not Wesley Wrest. Never Wesley Wrest.Through grit teeth, Wesley growls. “You traitorous little shits don’t know what you’re doing. You think I’m gonna let you get away with ratting? You think you’re gonna make it out of here alive after the shit you just pulled?!”Before King Helios can grab and detain him, Wesley slips out of reach and charges the altar. I step forward, pulling the two pups behind me and standing him down. As I figured, the mate bond wouldn’t let him hurt me.
Forsaken Mate Wedding Bells - 2
“The Goddess did no such foul thing,” Rafe growls, stomping down near Wesley. “Your schemes end here, worm.”“Alpha Rafael, Makayla, explain,” King Helios roars, no longer passively sitting to the side.“Through nefarious means, Alpha Wesley Wrest severed the mate bond between Makayla and myself. We are true fated mates, marked, and promised to one another for some time,” Rafe states. With his head held high, he looks just as regal and commanding as the king. My heart races just watching hmi address the room with confidence.“Liar! You stole her from me when Io came for diplomatic meetings!” Wesley shouts. “She is mine and has always been. Only mine!”“There was never any mate bond between us. How dare you try to claim otherwise over five years after we both came of age!” I snap. “King Helios, I humbly submit testimony from one Quinn Iverson, the former Luna candidate of River Crest.”Wesley’s eyes grow wide and the whispers around the temple hall grow into full blown outrage as a scre
Forsaken Mate Wedding Bells - 1
I’m nervous.My heart’s pounding and I can barely think straight. Every breath feels too big for my lungs, like I might pop any second. The dress wasn’t this tight yesterday. The shoes didn’t pinch like this. Am I growing? Will I end up filling the entire temple hall with my massive, bulbous feet and wide back? Is Rafe going to see his bloated bride and run away in fear.“Makayla, breathe.” Thane’s warm hand covers mine. He pulls me into a gentle hug, squeezing with just the right amount of pressure to calm me down and stop my thoughts from spiraling.“I’m okay,” I lie, my fib muffled by his suit jacket.“Your heart’s racing like a running rabbit,” he chuckles, pulling away. He brushes a strand of my long, curled hair from my face, kissing me on my forehead. “I know it’s scary, but there’s nothing for you to worry about. Everything’s in place. And you, my
Forsaken Mate Unwelcome Intruder
I’m exhausted.Between preparing for the Luna Ceremony, the wedding, and all the pack celebrations these last three days, I’ve been swamped with engagements and work. And if that isn’t bad enough, Rafe has been insatiable.I haven’t been able to go to his office for lessons since we’ve had a change of plans. I’ve been working with Thane, Christobel, Elder Raimey, and countless event hires from caterers to dress makers. More than once, I didn’t see Rafe all day until we both showed up separately to the pack celebrations late in the evenings.We would both be drained from these long days, but the second he sees me, he’s on me. His hands don’t leave my body, his gaze never wanders from my face. It’s like he’s desperately clinging to me to prove that his love hasn’t wavered with the removal of our bond. I don’t know what to do or say to show him that I feel the same about him.So, I just let him do whatever he wants and try to keep up.These last three days, he’s dragged me from the celeb
Forsaken Mate Bond Broken
“This changes nothing!” Rafe roars.His shouts pull me from my numb sleep into aching consciousness. My body feels like it was tossed off a cliff and rolled over by a semi. I blink the world into focus and find the familiar ceiling of Io’s hospital above me.“She is my mate. We know this. So whatever is happening is of no concern to me,” Rafe snarls. “Makayla is my Luna. She is going to be my wife. This changes nothing.”“What’s happening?”I push onto my elbows and find the room filled with concerned warriors: Dr. Juniper, Christobel, Thane, and an elderly woman I’ve never seen before. Her round, wrinkled face turns toward me, though her milky white eyes don’t seem to see anything.“My child, give me your hand.” Her withered fingers reach for me, and I pull away on instinct. Rafe pulls me into his side, kissing my hair.“It’s okay. Let Elder Raim
Forsaken Mate Wesley's Plans
“Yes! Please! Please save me.” Real tears fall from Quinn’s eyes as she begs me for her life. How many times have I imagined this scenario? Quinn crawling at my feet, completely humiliated. Beyond humiliated. Hopeless. Alone. Scared. Everything I was. Everything she inflicted on me.And just like her, I will show no mercy.I stomp on her hand, grinding it under my heel and ignoring her cries of pain.“Listen carefully, Quinn,” I mutter. “Because I won’t be repeating myself. Do you understand?”She nods, stifling her cries.“You’re going to tell us everything that you told Wesley about Io. Everything. You’re not going to conveniently leave a single detail out, do you hear me?”She nods again.“And you are going to tell us everything that Welsey has done since taking control of River Crest. The rogues, the attacks, everything.”Another nod.“And when you’re done spilling your guts about that, you’re going to tell us his plans and why he’s doing all of this.”A different reaction. She gl
Forsaken Mate Head on a Spike
“Makayla! Makayla slow down!” Christobel shouts after me.I won’t. I can’t.My legs carry me swiftly back to the packhouse and through the gated doors that lead down to the dungeons. I’ve only been once, but this trip is decidedly faster than the first. I take the stairs four or five at a time, ripping my lovely party dress and ruining all the hard work Christobel and the attendants did to make me look presentable.I can’t care about that right now. I can’t even stop my thoughts from scrambling madly, spiraling to a single point. Quinn Iverson must die. Today. At my hands.How dare she? How dare they?! River Crest wasn’t content with mercilessly tormenting me for years. No, they couldn’t be satisfied now that I am gone and no longer an eyesore to their perfect little pack. They had to go and mess with my new family.She’s not getting away with that. And once I’m through with her, I’m taking Wesley’s head with my bare hands!I bottom out at the end of the stairs, huffing furiously and
