Sensing my uneasiness and sadness, Xander cupped my face in both of his hands, I felt a shiver run down my spine, I didn’t dare meet his eyes, because if I did I might confess my darkest secrets to him.

With great effort, I moved away from his touch and turned toward the bathroom. The sound of the running water from the shower was a welcome distraction. I needed to regain my composure before I headed back to the room.

But Xander wasn't satisfied with my attempt to conceal my emotions. He followed me into the bathroom, his presence unwavering. Leaning against the doorframe, he crossed his arms over his broad chest, his eyes never leaving mine.

I sighed, frustration bubbling up within me. "Xander, please. I just need some time alone. I also have to go to the office tomorrow. And I really need the rest, after what I have suffered in the dining hall."

He shook his head slowly, his expression a mix of determination. "No, Gracie," he said, his voice low and raw. "I can't just stand by and w

    The next morning was Sunday, and I was planning to spend it in my bed. I looked around lazily and the room was empty but I could hear the shower running in the bathroom. Xander must be inside.A satisfied sigh left my mouth when Xander came out of the bathroom, wet and dripping. The water droplets were gliding down his taut muscles, making my mouth water.“Stop looking at me like this. It would not be easy to work with a hard-on.” Xander chuckled and then I realized that he caught me staring.“Then don’t come out looking so d*mn hot.” I muttered.“I can’t help it. I am made like that.” He winked at me, making me smile.I rose from bed, I also needed to freshen up and maybe lying down in bed could wait.“Oh, goddess. Now I am definitely hard.” Xander cursed and I chuckled.I was completely n*ked and I did that to tease him.Sometimes I wanted to be brave like this, after last night I wanted to believe that I was Xander’s and he would have me and no one else.After a warm shower, I head

    “We can’t just exile them Xan. The pack needs them and their expertise. And also, they are part of the pack, as their Alpha, it’s your duty to teach them how to change with time.” I said and looked at Xander.“What are you trying to say, Grace. Please spell it for me, because you saw what they did right. Of course you did, they attacked you. They are stubborn about every new change, for them, modern times never came.” Xander huffed, with frustration.“Maybe exiling them would not be so bad,” Mason said.I paused, letting the weight of my words settle in the room. "What if," I continued, "we don't exile the elders but revoke their privileges? Make them fend for themselves for a while. They'd have to rely on omegas for their needs. It could serve as a lesson, make them realize the importance of omegas."Mason’s eyes light up with my suggestion.Xander considered my suggestion, his eyes reflecting a mix of approval and pride. It was evident that he found merit in the idea. "Grace is righ

    When I reached my office, a long sigh left my mouth. Because on my desk there was a big mountain of paperwork that had accumulated over the past days during my absence. It was a daunting task that I needed to complete considering how I had just told Xander that I had earned my position and couldn’t leave.Just as I was about to dive into the paperwork, a sudden uproar echoed down the hallway outside my office. Raised voices and the sound of heavy footsteps drew nearer, disrupting the quiet atmosphere within the room. I glanced up, curiosity piqued.And then, there she was.Emma, I narrowed my eyes at this sudden arrival.“Grace,” she exclaimed. The guards stationed outside my office attempted to block her path, but she paid them no mind, her focus solely on reaching me.She stormed inside my office with a cake box in her hands. “Grace, please hear me once,” she begged.“Out,” I ordered her.The guard moved toward her, but she sidestepped them.“Pl…pl..please Grace, listen to me. It wa

    “What the hell are you doing?” I roared at her.Shock and horror washed over me as I witnessed Emma's wicked grin and the destructive spectacle that followed. My heart pounded in my chest as she overturned the potted plant, smashing it over her head with a sickening thud. Blood trickled down her face, her white blouse now stained crimson."Emma, stop!" I cried out, my voice filled with desperation and disbelief.But she ignored my plea, continuing her performance with a chilling intensity. I couldn’t believe this. Not that Emma was some saint, but what I couldn’t believe was how I could be so dumb. I let that happen to myself. Lana warned me but I was so sure that she couldn’t hurt me that I forgot that there were various ways to hurt a person, hurt wasn’t limited to the physical body.“I am warning you. Stop this or you will regret it.” I roared.“Oh, sure I will.” she winked at me, and dread settled in my stomach.She broke the water gl*ss that was there and cried in pain as if she

    I was so wrong. I thought Emma was weak and couldn’t hurt me but forgot how cruel and cunning she was.The horrified expressions of my colleagues and the guards were still floating in my mind. Their look of disgust still lingers behind the back of my mind, making me groan.Oh, Goddess. I just want to get away from all these power plays and politics.I remember what I thought when guards were hesitant to leave Emma with me that they were dead wrong if they thought Emma could hurt me, but I was the one who was completely out of mind. She could have and had hurt me. In ways I couldn't even think of.When I think I am one step ahead of them, my enemies show me that I can never leave them behind.It was completely absurd how she barged inside my office, begged me for forgiveness and when she found us alone, she showed me her real face. She acted like I was the one hurting when it was the contrary she was hurting herself.I knew she was going to be okay and so would be her child, but I coul

    “Don’t act like a pathetic child, crying for your Dad’s love. You are no child or no naive. You knew exactly what you were doing. And I won't let you off the hook this time.” Daniel hissed, his words were firm with underlying frustration, evident in his tone.“You never were. You were never my father.” I yelled at him and tried to move toward him, but Xander’s hold was firm, he never left my side.Daniel noticed Xander’s hold on me and smirked evilly, “He is just using you to become a Alpha king. You are nothing but a pawn in his game, he will use you till he can and then he will send you your way.”“Yeah, because that’s what you do right? You are pathetic.” I laughed out loud and he narrowed his eyes at me.“You cheated on your fated mate. Then treated your only legitimate daughter, the heir of your pack as sh*t. You are nothing but a disgrace to the Blood Moon Pack, maybe this is the reason why your wolf left you. How could an Alpha without his wolf lead a pack?” I mocked him, I kne

    The air inside the car was thick with tension, a heavy weight pressing down on me as I sat there, my fingers tapping on the screen of my phone. My heart was still racing from the argument with my father, the searing accusations, the betrayal. I'd lost so much in the span of a few minutes—my job, my reputation, my standing in the pack. And now, my very birthright was hanging by a thread.Beside me, Xander's gaze never left my face. His strong, steady presence was a comfort, a lifeline in the storm that had suddenly enveloped my life. He had every reason to expect me to crumble under the weight of it all, but I couldn't afford to break. Not now.With practiced ease, I typed out a message to my *ssistant, instructing Jack to arrange the follow-up work I'd been planning before the world had crumbled around me. It was a testament to my determination, a silent declaration that I wouldn't let others' actions define me.Xander's warm hand found mine, his thumb stroking soothing circles on my

  • Goodbye The Wrong Ex, Hello My Fated Mate   Chapter 46 Confession

    Two days had p*ssed since that eventful day. And when Xander told me that he wanted me to see his newly acquired office building I accepted it. I was surprised at first, because I thought maybe Xander was not serious about this thing when he earlier mentioned it, but now I know that Xander never says things that couldn’t accomplish.During our car ride, I occasionally stole glances at Xander. I saw a small smile on his lips and then I blushed thinking about what he did to me early in this morning.I was sleeping when I felt the pressure on my pussy and there he was eating me like I was his favorite meal. Which in fact he told me that I was.He looked at me staring at him and placed his hand on my thigh, a little higher than I expected.“Gracie, I want to tell you something.” his voice soft.I nodded and he continued.“I will be honest with you, when you told me you don’t want to work with me in my company I was hurt. Your unwillingness to be in the same workspace as me stung and I am

    The room was filled with crying kids and the crying did not feel like a curse, it was indeed a blessing, a symphony to my ears.The nurse gave the kids to Xander and he took the bundle of joy with so much love and adoration, I couldn’t help but smile at him.All curses left my mind when I looked at him handling our kids with so much love, this man was my family. I love him.“Grace, look these are our kids,” he showed the faces of my babies to me and a laugh bubbled up my throat.I nodded. Xander leaned down and kissed me on my forehead.“You have given me the best gift, Grace, I am going to worship the land you are going to walk on. You are my goddess from now on.” Xanderr boasted and I laughed.And then suddenly the door opened abruptly.“How dare you all, keeping me out of the room, don’t you know who I am?” Daisy cursed like a sailor as she tried to enter the room while the guards were trying to keep her out.Xander rolled his eyes at her, clearly not ready for her drama.Daisy pun

I with my she wolf troop marched toward the rogues, they were not expecting us and were startled when we attacked them, in just one move we had rogues covered from all three sides.From the west Kai was acting like a killing machine, eliminating rogues, from the north I was there and my troop with their agility easily defeated the rogues and Xander’s experience was making rogues run for their lives.But they had nowhere to go, with the help of Robert we had the area covered, anyone who dared to leave the battlefield would burn like crisp hips, so we all were sure of our victory.And after two days of continuous fight, we eliminated every rogue in the area.

    The whole day we were holed up in our room and when we went out it was already the next day.Grace and Xander were already present in the dining room.Xander took one look at his Beta and shook his head.“I don’t want to know,” he muttered under his breath, clearly not interested in what happened between us.I snorted, sat on the table, and started eating.And as the day progressed I realized that even though the dark Chapter called Morax had ended, it didn’t mean that all problems were solved. We were still in between the war.Like it was decided before, Xander was preparing to lead the troops to help Kai and Mason was already on his way to help his Alpha.We were standing at the front of the house, Grace held Xander’s hand, and I could see vulnerability in her eyes and I clutched Mason’s hand with desperation.“I am going to come back, don’t worry,” he *ssured me.“Indeed you have to. I will burn your soul if you won’t,” emotions swirled in my voice as I looked at him.He dipped his

    “How are you feeling?” Mason asked me his eyes were fixated upon me, there was a fire burning in his eyes, there was a look of longing, a thirst.I had never seen him looking at me like this, except the time we met during our mission with Morax, there was the same intensity in his eyes that I am seeing right now.I always thought that Mason was this laid-back guy but now the possessiveness in his eyes was blinding, and my breath hitched when he moved toward me.“Great, just my bones are dancing with all the energy I had spent,” I smirked at me, as he prowled toward me like a hungry animal, which he was like a hungry wolf.“Why are you looking at me like this?” I questioned him.His eyes darkened as he stretched his hand and grazed my lips with his fingers, I trembled under his touch.His touch left me trembling on my bed.“How am I looking at you?” he asked me, his eyes fixated upon my lips.“Like you want to devour me, like you want to embrace me in a way where nobody could understan

    I slumped down heavily on the floor as the door of my room burst open and werewolf warriors came inside.They searched the room through their eyes but found nothing, except the black mist. The residue of the confrontation between Morax and me.“We heard the noise,” The guard questioned as he looked at my slumped figure on the floor.I squeezed my eyes closed, my body feeling the weight of the fight that I had just fought.I just wanted to rest and sleep, maybe for a year.I opened my mouth to speak, to answer them, what really had transpired in the room. But apart from a hollow voice nothing came, my vision swam in front of my eyes. And the people I was seeing clearly were now just faceless figures, their images distorting.And with that without any prior warning, I just slumped down and fell asleep.I needed that rest, it was like someone just dragged into the dark abyss that was comforting and after weeks I was feeling safe, secure, and comfortable.After what felt like the most pea

    Daisy’s POVMy head was pounding hard and even though I had said that I was ready to go with Xander on the field, I was lying to myself.I knew I couldn’t. Staying up on my feet was becoming a hard task and dots were dancing in front of my eyes.My mind was troubled with various questions. Mason being the most frequent thought. Whatever we were or whatever was going on between us was still a bone of contentment between us.I always knew that accepting the fact that I had two mates would be difficult for Mason. At the start, it was difficult for me because never in my wildest dream I thought of having two mates. But this came as a surprise to me.I just hope that Mason comes to terms with this because I couldn’t imagine my life without him. I needed my mates, needed my Mason and if he tried to break up with me, I would burn him into crisps.I internally snorted at the ridiculous thought, I could never do that.A chill ran down my spine when the re*ssuring voice never returned, somethin

    “I want to come with you Xan. I don’t want to send you off to fight alone. You told me that we were in this together so why are you not understanding?” I pouted at him as he took me back to our room.“Do you think I want to leave you alone? And more so in your conditions. You are pregnant, Grace, I can’t take a risk about two important things in my life. One is my lovely mate and the other is my kids. So nope, you are not coming.” he said sternly and we entered the room.I whimpered with the thought that he was about to leave me.Xander sighed heavily, his eyes filled with a mixture of determination and concern as he looked at me. "Gracie, you know I would never willingly leave you alone, especially now. But the pack needs me, and I can't risk your safety or the safety of our unborn children."I crossed my arms, frustration bubbling within me. "Xan, I can fight too, I'm not helpless, and I won't let you face this danger alone. We can protect each other."He cupped my face gently, his

    The conference room was dimly lit, the heavy atmosphere reflective of the urgency that gripped our pack. Maps sprawled across the large wooden table, marked with strategic points and the locations of recent skirmishes. Daisy sat to my left, her piercing gaze fixed on the maps as she tapped her fingers impatiently. On my right, Xander leaned forward, his eyes intense."We need to locate Morax before he am*sses more power. The hellhounds Robert sent are our best shot at finding the escaped witch," Xander declared, his voice resonating with authority.I nodded in agreement, my mind already racing through the possible scenarios. "We can't afford to underestimate Morax. If he's managed to gather more power, we'll be facing a formidable force. Daisy, was there anything that you found odd when Morax disappeared?Daisy shook her head.“Nothing, a portal opened up and he vanished, like he was never there.
