RIDER

I'm leaning against the wall unable to keep away from my mate for much longer. Everything is still the same. She won't talk to Moi and she doesn't move around. That's what's the last update have been. Halie isn't sleeping that much I know, her heart beat isn't that low but she's laying like the dead. When I open the door, Moi meets me a little jittery as she paused her pacing.

"Hey Rider, " She says wrapping her arms around herself. "Any update?"

I shake my head, glancing over at the girl still lying against the bed.

"How is she?"

Moi huffs folding her arms.

"She hasn't moved an inch since she got there, " Moi explains. "Hasn't even bothered to eat and won't even talk to me. She's being petty. PETTY. "

Moi takes a breath, looking disheartened

"See, " Moi continues. "I've been teasing her all day and she won't even respond. "

"And she won't eat? When was the last time Halie ate?"

"Breakfast. But that was hours ago. "

I turn gazing at the stubborn woman taking a step bef

  • Her Beta Mate   Confessions

    I'm over one hundred percent sure what we're about to do is the stupidest thing anyone could've ever done. But it's the only thing that would ever get Ammoy to just STOP talking. Literally, she's worst than a feeding mosquito when ever she decided to be annoying and then she has the gall to accuse me of being petty. Unbelievable! The large goons we have as guards follow us at every step as if we're the problem and that they, more than likely aren't the threat that will eat us alive. Moi is nervous figetting about- which serves her right. This was her decision. She was the one thinking Rider wanted to know what happened to us in the forest..which I doubt was what he was really asking about. When we make it outside near something that look like a dojo or training area, we find Rider looking very hot in all black which definitely makes him a lot more sexier than usual. But that's besides the point. There are many highlighting qualities about Rider that's hard to ignore. Like the fact th

  • Her Beta Mate   Monsters are very much alive

    I'm pacing around our room while Moi sits watching me. My feet always ends up returning to one place. The window. I'm nervous maybe a little bit weary. I don't know why I'm on edge this much, I'm never like this. Well I'm never hunted by animals or men either so I guess my anxiety only compensated for what I feel. Chewing away at my last finger, I make my way towards the door. I'm making another bad - okay horrible decision but mistakes were made to be made and well I know me better than anyone else. There's no way I'd be able to sleep through the night. "Wait, Halie, " Moi stands folding her arms staring at me apprehensively. "Do I wanna know what you're up to?" "Maybe not. " "I don't know anything, " She says walking over to the bed. "You don't need me to tell you this is a bad idea do you? " "Not really, " I sigh opening the door. "My mind is fuzzing Moi. They're out there and we're here and I know he says it's good, but ugh!" I hold my head. "I promise I won't be reckless. "

  • Her Beta Mate   Rejected

    RIDER 'Quinn get your ass down to the infirmary right now! 'I'm so extremely pissed right now, if I tried to name them, I'd probably have a long list of wolves to kill; with the woman in my arms being at the very bottom. And the worst thing about that, I wouldn't be able to kill her. It'd be better if I had ripped my heart out while it's still beating and that's what infuriates me the most. The fact that she has no regard for life. Especially her freaking own! What the hell was Halie doing out in the forest on her own? What if I hadn't gotten there in time? What if Veron had torn her apart? I'm barely holding myself together with a thread. Barely. And all she had to offer was a lousy excuse of being worried when I told her that I was fine! All Halie had to do was stay put! She had no idea the pressure that lifted from my shoulders knowing she was safe or the migraine I had knowing she could be gallivanting in the forest on her own. And the hell, wolves don't even have migraines! "

  • Her Beta Mate   Are we really strangers?

    The morning is freezing cold when I wake up. The windows are foggy, yet I can still hear the silent chatter of people outside. What time is it anyway? Oh great, I'm only now missing my cell phone. Moi stirred, waking up likewise as I pad towards the bathroom, washing my face and brushing my teeth. When I return she's staring out the window preoccupied with her thoughts. It's been days since Rider had stopped talking with us, well me particularly. I'm not at all bothered by his impassiveness, I just don't understand it. "Hey! " "I'm going out, " I reply heading towards the door. "Halie!" " Moi" "You've been avoiding me like a plague. " "I'm just going out to get some air, Moi! I promise, I don't even care about running away or finding the witch doctor. " "Halie, you're avoiding me because of the Rider situation, I know it. " "I don't know what you're talking about, " I say, opening the door. I don't want to talk about it. It's shitty. Everyone treats me like a child. They act as

  • Her Beta Mate   It's not about me

    RIDER "What are you doing?" I gingerly removed Sam's hand glancing, across my shoulder, remembering I'd left Halie behind. God, I hoped she didn't see a thing. The last thing I needed was for her to think something was going on between us, then again I couldn't even predict what went on in Halie's mind. This imprint thing was not doing either of us favors and as much as I'm staying away physically, my mind is always with her. Sam smirks before placing her hands against her hips. I've been avoiding her too. It's easier with Halie however, being Beta forces me to interact with the pack, and with Sam being a warrior, it's all the more complicated. I moved to walk around her before she grabbed my hand and I met her eyes. "Rider. " "Not right now. " "Then when? Please I just want to talk. Please. " I huffed folding my hands across my chest, my eyes wandering around. "I'm listening. " "I don't get why you're upset with me, " She starts before running a hand through her dark curly h

  • Her Beta Mate   Notorious three or is it five?

    RIDER We're all standing in the forest, ears on high alert to intruders, yet completely in tune to our sparing match. Jax is shirtless and smiling like a idiot, as if his craving for blood, has just spiked. His recent victim? Oliver our Gamma and friend. We're completely out of reach to be distrubed, well unless you want Jax to chew your ass. When he's having fun, intruders aren'welcomed with open arms, otherwise we're in perfect proximity in case there's an emergency. Light filters through the foliage above, warm and steady, though it's still early and with every breath we take, mists escape us. It's not a one on one challenge, we're wolves and right now we're enemies to each other. I miss Jax's upper cut only to find myself pinned by Oliver from my torso upwards, my hands precariously positioned behind my head. A hit to my abdomen, once, twice and of course it's my asshole Alpha, and he's enjoying it much more than he should. Oliver is laughing also. The pair of sadists. I wait, g

  • Her Beta Mate   Just goes to show

    "Quinn is coming," Moi says, staring out the window. "And he has flowers. " She snorts and I laugh. I'm not sure why she dislikes him so much. Moi never acted like that around Rider. Moi opens the door before Quinn has a chance to knock, not being careful to hide the fact that she dislikes him being here- a lot. "Good morning!" Quinn sings just the same and I can't help but smile at his bubbly personality. "Flowers for the lady" Then marched over placing a kiss on my cheek and a flower in my hand likewise. "Careful, I might think you have a crush on me, " I say as we walk from my room heading to the kitchen. Moi is mumbling to herself, being miserable but neither of us take notice of the thunder or lightning that's brewing above her head. Quinn's golden eyes gleam with mirth as we walk along. "Who told you?" He questions cheekly and I hide my reddening cheeks behind my palms. "So" I say, deflecting his obvious flirting, bumping his shoulder. "How did you get out of Rider's clutch

  • Her Beta Mate   I'm not stupid

    "Where's Allison?!" I grabbed Jax by the arm staring into his eyes that looked hella terrified. Yes, I'm so furious right now, that I'm probably shooting steam from both my ears but who the f**k cares! "Where is she?!" "Down the hall, the room to the left" He answers hesitantly. "Should I be worried? You know what, never mind. " I storm off mid his speech, swinging the door open and finding Allison on her bed. Her eyes are large with surprise, yet she's still somewhat composed palming her stomach. "I need to talk to you. " She blinks, lips pasted together. "It's about Rider. " "Guess I should make myself comfortable then. Close the door behind you. " I'm overreacting, I know. But honestly I truly despised the girl that's with Rider and maybe it's 'cause, in the pit of my stomach, I can sense something isn't right between both of them. She's clingy and obnoxious and he's tolerating her. I don't give a shit if she might've known him before me. "What's the problem?" Allison asks.

  • Her Beta Mate   Love always wins

    RIDER I hurried home, running through the living area and headed for my room grabbing my travel bag. I hadn't seen Halie since she left, haven't heard from her, wouldn't even know who to ask. But I had promised that we'd only be apart temporarily and I meant it. 'You're leaving!!' Quinn's voice screams in my head. 'When were you planning on telling me this?' 'Hopefully before you had the chance of screaming my ear off' I responded in the link. 'I give up my position too' Oliver says joining the conversation. I pause, grabbing a shirt and then two more. I wasn't sure how long I'd get to stay with her- not that I was hurrying, but I couldn't put off going to find Jax either. The asshole hadn't left a clue about his whereabouts and I pray to Selene that he hasn't gone Berserker either, but I'm almost sure he might have said something to Moi about where he might be. And that's what I'm counting on. 'No you can't' I reply to Oliver. 'What? You just walked away from yours'. 'I'm thi

  • Her Beta Mate   I quit

    RIDER I watched as Halie left, feeling the longing in her heart to stay. I wanted her to stay but she couldn't. With Jax gone, my father and the new Alpha would try to keep both her and Moi in holding. It had to be something special why an Alpha of all ranks chose a human for a mate. I haven't even divulged that she was my mate. But I wasn't gonna wait around for either secs to accept it. I only stayed to ensure there was no abuse of the Red Devil pack members. I was standing behind Halie's oath to give them safe passage. Which is what the argument between us is. "We rebuilt most of the destroyed buildings, men are working on the fences to get them up again. " Oliver explains. He is just as exhausted as I am at our Alpha's stubbornness. He might have been his father-in-law, but I swear Oliver rolls his eyes and mutters beneath his breath 'If it wasn't for Allison and the pup'. No one wants to deal with either of them. Neither my father or the current Alpha and the fact that I was

  • Her Beta Mate   Home

    I was still pissed that Rider took his ex along but I knew he didn't do it on purpose. It's not like he could send her back. Besides the whole fact that I can't even think straight, Moi is dead and in the heat of things, Rider decides to admit that he loves me. Now, his pregnant ex tags along. I've been avoiding him for days now ever since we started the journey back to his pack. It's not that I dont love him, I do, but I'm confused as to where we go from here. If Gale hadn't rotted me out, I had agreed to leave Rider be. The guilt still gnaws at me, especially after what we shared last night and some part of me thinks it would be the right thing to do. Especially with a baby on the way. Sam would only continue to be petty and would likely require Rider for everything, even lifting a cup of water. I walk around checking on the pack members, smiling at the little kids. They were all so terrified. I had eavesdropped on some of their conversation a little earlier, hearing someone ment

  • Her Beta Mate   Conviction

    RIDER I can't move. I think I might have broken every bone in my body, plus the additional ones that were broken prior to embarking on this adventure. Now that I had the time, I felt every radiation of f**king pain soaring through my body. "Hey, " Halie whispers, her face contorted in concern as he held onto me. "You're going to be okay. There's so much blood" She chuckles nervously. "So much blood but you're going to be okay, I promise. " 'Okay' I told her, even if she couldn't hear me. But I trusted her. I can hear Veron, thank goddess he was still breathing, Quinn still in enough shape to make jokes. I can almost smile at the thought. I can't believe we actually won a f**king war, killed Ragna. I killed a Red Devil. Yeah I was never going to live this one down. Something cold slips into my veins, my eyes opening momentarily finding Halie still beside me. She glances up with a smile, her eyes moving back to whatever she was doing. Her small hands skim my fur, chest relaxing as sh

  • Her Beta Mate   No Greater Sacrifice

    RIDER It's a small jerk, then another and then the sound of sputtering that pulls me from my reverie and to her side. I lift my mate, helping her to sit forward as she coughs up water swallowed from having gone under. Halie immediately wraps her arms around my neck, shivering, pressing her mouth to mine and I return her kiss in fervor. Maybe she didn't think I'd make it while I was losing hope that she'll remain alive. Halie pulled back, staring into my face for a while, tears streamed down her cheeks, lips trembling and I pulled her closer, squeezing her against my chest. She didn't need to say anything. I already knew and understood. "You actually came," she whispers. "For me. " "I promised I'll always find you, didn't I?" "That's so corny. " Halie chuckles against me and I soak everything up, determined not to let these memories slip. I decided here and then that I was going to do better, be better for her. Believe in her. "Erhem, " Someone coughs from behind me, and Halie pe

  • Her Beta Mate   Hell hound

    RIDER Ragna was dead. I wanted him dead and unidentifiable beneath me. Halie was mine and now she was his. He stole her from me, ripped her from my arms and now from my soul. Apart of me doesn't feel any different, I don't feel as if the bond I have with Halie has broken, but I'm so apprehensive at the thought that it makes me giddy and irrational. Ragna roars with anguish as he rips me from his hand that I had latched unto, taking a chunk of flesh with me as I roll, before hurrying back to my four paws. That molten feeling spreads through me once more, shoulders tense and pain radiates through every limb. Soon I wouldn't be able to control my actions anymore, but I don't want to. Not with this bastard. He walks around me going in circles and I watch him, my tail wagging excitedly. I've never felt this excited over a prey, not since the last time I had training with my father. The alarm that registered in his eyes when I tackled him to the ground, when I had only missed his main v

  • Her Beta Mate   Solstice

    My body feels heavy, like lead, my mouth dry and when I open my eyes, everything is suddenly too bright. I lifted my hand to my eyes, feeling my body suddenly spilling over and I fought to catch myself, hands pulling me backwards instead. When I finally open my eyes, it's almost noon, and I'm strapped to a chair, a cream-colored lace grown attached to my person while women placed the remaining decorations in my hair. My feet are bare, my shoes confiscated and if I run away by some weird chance, I wouldn't be able to get far. Flower petals and blossoms line the way to some final destination, children running around happily as if sealing my fate with a monster was a royal decree. Eventually someone releases the bands that keep my body and feet hostage and I hold onto the chair, standing up. "How was your sleep?" Ragna asks, his unexpected presence making me jump. "What did you do to me?" "Nothing that you didn't cause on yourself, " He says looking me over. His eyes slid down my body

  • Her Beta Mate   Betrayed

    I glance up and down the hall ensuring that no one sees me before slipping into the room, hearing a groaning wolf toss and turn in her bed. Gale had given me monkshood a few days ago and I've managed to get a little of it into the she-wolf's water. I know it poisons, but just enough will render her powerless for me to do what I need. The door slips shut with a click and I hurry over when she moves to sit up groaning and clutching his stomach. "What the hell are you doing in my room?!" Celene hisses at me. "Careful, you're already in a bad state, don't want to worsen your situation do you?" Celene grits her teeth at me from her position against her bed, glaring at me. "You're the runt that poisoned my water?!" "I'm the runt that could potentially cure you should you heed my instructions. " Celene laughs, throwing her head back against the headboard. "Oh you've got some balls on you, waltzing into my bedroom with ultimatums. Who says I can't just rip your head off and do the ceremo

    RIDER "Are we gonna talk about last night?" "No", I brushed Oliver's question to the side and kept walking, a scowl on my face. "Wait, " he grips my upper arm but I yank it away refusing to stand and talk. I already said no, he should just let it go. "Hey! " Oliver runs up blocking my path. "I get it okay. You don't know what to do about your mate, you don't know if you'll be able to save her. I get that. " "Really?" "Yeah, " he answers, either oblivious to the sarcasm in my voice or he chose to ignore it "No, no you don't get it. " "I'm a brother too, you know. I'm a part of the family. I get it. I'm the outsider between you and Jax. We all know you both grew up together. The only other reason I'm here is because Allison is my mate. So I get how you feel. It's the same way I felt when Jax took his sister away without even consulting me first. It made me feel insufficient, makes me question my role as the pack's Gamma. I wondered if he didn't trust me enough. But most of all, I
