last update Last Updated: 2024-11-25 01:52:49

Why did I think going to Varg's room to talk to him, to finally tell him everything about Lucian and what had happened to my mom, was a good idea? Maybe it was desperation, or maybe it was the fragile hope that he could help me somehow. Despite my hesitation, I decided to trust my gut—and our mate bond. But what I didn’t expect was for him to grab me by the waist, pulling me so close that his chest pressed against mine. The warmth of his body sent a wave of heat through me, making my heart race so fast I feared he might notice the sudden, forbidden longing stirring within me.

The tension crackled in the air, thick and suffocating. My heart kept pounding so hard as his eyes locked onto mine, sharp and unrelenting, as though they could see straight into my soul. He wasn’t letting me off the hook without an answer.

I scrambled through my thoughts, trying to find a way out of this. I couldn’t tell him it was Bethany who had told me. She didn’t deserve to be dragged into this, not when I’d

  • Her Chosen Mate   16. Hurt

    Varg Pov “Why the fuck did you do that to her?” I growled to myself, slamming my fist into the nearest wall. The impact sent a dull ache through my knuckles, but it was nothing compared to the storm raging inside me. Regret clawed at my chest, twisting like a knife. Did I think kissing her would change anything to what had done?I knew I was losing control, and that’s why I told her to leave. I warned her. But she didn’t listen.Now, my heart ached in a way I hadn’t felt in years. The first time I felt this kind of pain was the day my parents died. I hated myself then, hated the reckless anger that consumed me and the chaos I unleashed because of it.And now, here I was again, hurting someone else, someone who didn’t deserve it. Someone who trusted me.What the hell was wrong with me?I grabbed some clothes from my closet and threw them on hastily, my movements frantic. The image of her choking, tears streaming down her face, haunted me with every step. I had to find her. I had to ma

  • Her Chosen Mate   17. In His Arms

    Lyra POV All that had happened replayed in my head, vivid and relentless. The moment Varg’s hands had closed around my throat, the fear that gripped me was unlike anything I’d ever known. It wasn’t just his strength—it was the realization that he, the one person I thought might protect me from Lucian, had become the reason I was so broken. My mind relished at the fact that he kissed me after he release his hold on me, his lips touching mine at that moment was like fire. I brush away the thought immediately and force my thought to focus. I had stayed at the Dom mansion with the fragile hope that Varg would somehow save me from his brother’s control. But after what happened, that hope crumbled, leaving me drowning in helplessness. I didn't know where to go after I ran and the idea of going to the moon pack was the worst decision I've ever made, the moment I got to the boundry. The memories hit me before I could even cross the border, the scornful looks, the whispers, the way they t

  • Her Chosen Mate   18. My Savior

    Varg's Pov The moment I stepped into my room, my phone began blaring. I glanced at the screen and saw Baron Cage’s name flashing, manager of the underground arena. “What’s going on, Varg?” Baron demanded the second I answered. His tone was sharp, and it reminded me of the fight I’d missed earlier because of the chaos with Lyra. “You’re distracted, and it’s not good for my business.” “I got caught up with something important,” I replied curtly. “Set up a rematch.” Baron scoffed, clearly unimpressed. “Your excuses don’t pay my bills. Lucky for you, Mathew’s been hounding me for another shot at you. Fine, I’ll set it up. But if you pull this crap again, you’ll be out. And don’t forget, I already paid you for the last fight.” The line went dead before I could respond. I clenched my phone, resisting the urge to hurl it at the wall. For years, the underground arena had been my escape, a place where I could lose myself in the violence and not think about my past or Lucian’s schemes

  • Her Chosen Mate   19. His Embrace

    Lyra's POV The creaking sound of the door pulled me from my sleep. As I opened my eyes, I took in my surroundings, the faint familiarity of the room sinking in. The beige-and-gold blanket draped over me confirmed my suspicion, as I realized I was in Varg's room. The last thing I remembered was Lucian hitting me, his voice filled with anger as he demanded to know why I’d tried to run away. I’d pleaded, tried to reason with him, but nothing seemed to stop his rage. Desperation had made me call out to Varg in my mind, hoping that he’d hear me. Then, like a miracle, he’d stormed in with Bethany by his side, pulling Lucian away from me with a force I didn’t know he had.After that, everything blurred. The pain, the shouting, it felt like a distant nightmare.Now, sitting in this room, the dull ache in my back and arms reminded me it had all been real. I sat up slowly, wincing as I moved, the pain sharp enough to make me groan softly. Resting my head against the headboard, I tried to stea

  • Her Chosen Mate   20. A little closer

    Varg's POVEverything seemed to pause as I looked into her eyes. I forgot how to breathe. The way she gazed at me, the way her waist felt beneath my hand, it was overwhelming. Despite the oversized shirt she wore, I could feel her trembling under my touch. Her eyes weren’t just red; they were alive, like molten embers smoldering in the dark. They held a fire that could consume me yet keep me warm all at once.We stayed like that, her body pressed against mine, until the door creaked open. Bethany entered, holding a bundle of clothes in her arms. I quickly let go of Lyra’s waist and stepped to the other side of the room, pretending to busy myself.Bethany’s voice was soft as she approached Lyra. “Is he already giving you a hard time?” she whispered, setting the clothes on the bed.“No…no,” Lyra stammered, her voice laced with tension. I smirked to myself. She’d been just as lost in the moment as I was.Not wanting to linger and make things more awkward, I left the room and headed to th

  • Her Chosen Mate   21. No Escape

    Lyra POV I lay on the bed for what felt like hours, unable to sleep. My thoughts were consumed by Lucian, the fear of him finding a way to get to me again sent shivers down my spine. I turned to face the window, and the soft glow of the full moon bathed the room in silver light.The sight of the moon stirred memories I’d rather forget, the pain of seeing my mother lifeless body, helpless and frozen and the pack accusing me ok killing her. My chest tightened as guilt washed over me, sharper than any physical pain. I shouldn’t have gone alone to pick those flowers. I shouldn’t have left her side. Maybe if I’d stayed, things wouldn’t have turned out this way.Tears welled up in my eyes and rolled down my cheeks. I clutched at my chest, sobbing softly. I wanted to stop, to hold it in, but the grief was relentless, pouring out of me in waves. If only the Moon Goddess could grant me one wish, just one moment to see my mother again. But I knew that was impossible.Footsteps behind me broke

    Varg's Pov I followed Bethany down the hallway, her steps unusually slow. Her hesitation made me uneasy, especially considering how urgent her earlier message had seemed. We walked a bit farther before she suddenly stopped and turned to face me. Her face crumpled with emotion, and tears spilled down her cheeks. She wiped them away with trembling hands, avoiding my gaze."I’m sorry, Varg," she sniffed, her voice cracking. "I didn’t want to do this, but Lucian… he threatened my mother. He said he’d hurt her if I didn’t help him."My heart sank as her words registered. “What did he ask you to do?” I asked sharply, my voice laced with suspicion and anger.Bethany hesitated, her eyes filled with regret. Finally, she whispered, “He told me to distract you… so he could go to Lyra.”The moment the words left her mouth, fury surged through me. I didn’t waste a second. I turned on my heel and bolted back toward my room, the sound of Bethany’s apologies fading behind me. My mind raced as fast a

  • Her Chosen Mate   23. Just stop

    Varg Pov I pushed open the door to Lucian's study and walked in. Ever since our fight, I’d been avoiding him, but I couldn’t any longer. The fact that he came after Lyra meant he wouldn’t stop, and I decided talking to him might at least force him to think twice. He was talking to Jacob when I entered, his tone sharp and commanding.The moment he saw me, Lucian’s face twisted into a frown, his deadly stare cutting through the air. Jacob, sitting opposite him, glanced over his shoulder toward me. Ignoring both their gazes, I plopped down on the couch near a small bookshelf in the corner, waiting for Lucian to finish his conversation.Jacob stood, sensing the tension, and tucked his hands into the pockets of his jeans. “I think I’ll leave you two to talk,” he said, walking toward the door. As his hand hovered over the knob, he turned back to me. “Just try not to tear each other apart.”I said nothing, watching him leave. The door clicked shut, and silence settled over the room. Lucian

    Lyra’s POVI was home.The realization settled in my chest, warm and comforting.“Thank you for helping me out,” I told Bethany as we carried the babies into the room, heading to the cribs that was adorned with a gold nameplate that shimmered under the soft glow of the overhead light.The room was breathtaking, far more spacious than I had expected. The walls were painted in warm shades of white and brown, creating a sense of peace and comfort. Above us, the ceiling was a masterpiece, painted with an artistic display of the sky, soft, wispy clouds stretched across the canvas, giving the illusion of endless serenity.Three beautifully crafted brown cribs stood side by side, their intricate wooden designs carved with care. A plush beige couch sat in the corner, its inviting cushions promising comfort for the long nights Varg and I would undoubtedly spend here, watching over our children.I gently placed Moon in her crib, her tiny fingers immediately reaching for my hair with a playful c

Wrapping my arms around myself, I tried to ward off the cold, my bare feet sinking slightly into the plush rug beneath me.Slowly, I blinked my eyes open, expecting to find myself still nestled in the warmth of Varg’s embrace, but instead, the space beside me was empty. The sheets were slightly rumpled, the lingering warmth from his body fading away.Frowning, I pushed myself up from the bed, stretching slightly before making my way toward the window. As I pulled the curtains apart, my breath caught in my throat.It was snowing.Thick white flakes floated gently from the sky, blanketing the world in a soft, untouched purity. The ground was covered in a layer of white, the fence dusted with snow, and Varg’s car sat outside, half-buried beneath it.I hadn't seen snow like this in years. Since coming to Norway as a child with my mother, I had only experienced winter once.

  • Her Chosen Mate   73. Welcome Back

    Lyra’s POVThe cold night air brushed against my skin as I stood across from the Dom mansion, staring at the towering structure that loomed before me. The scent of pine, damp earth, and something deeply familiar drifted through the air, stirring memories I wasn’t sure I was ready to face.Years ago, I had wanted nothing more than to escape this place, to run as far away as my legs could take me. But now, standing here with my children in my arms, it felt different. This place, once my prison, had become my solace. The walls I once despised now offered safety. Protection. A home for my pups.A warm hand settled on my shoulder, grounding me.“You’ll be fine. Trust me,” Varg murmured, his breath warm against my ear. “I’m here. And I’m never leaving your side.”I lowered my gaze to the two babies nestled in my arms, then to the one he held. Their tiny fingers curled into the fabric of my clothes, their warmth seeping into me. I wished, for a fleeting moment, that they could tell me what t

  • Her Chosen Mate   72. Little reunion

    Varg's POV The cries of my babies pulled me from my thoughts, their wails slicing through the night. I turned toward Lyra, who rocked them desperately, trying to soothe them, but their sobs didn’t ease.I knelt beside her, watching the way her red-rimmed eyes flickered up at me, filled with pain, fear… and doubt. It was as if she expected me to hurt them. And honestly, I couldn’t blame her. I hadn’t done enough to protect her before.Gently, I reached for one of the babies. “I’m sorry, Lyra,” I murmured, lifting the tiny, trembling body into my arms.The moment I did, the cries quieted. The baby’s red eyes, so much like mine, locked onto me, filled with warmth instead of fear.“Daddy’s here,” I whispered, pulling him closer.A soft coo replaced the sobs, followed by a tiny, breathy chuckle. A smile tugged at my lips as I brushed a finger over his nose before pressing a gentle kiss to his forehead.“You look just like me,” I mused. “I hope you’re strong too.”Lyra’s voice broke throug

    Varg's POV The sound of snapping jaws and guttural growls filled the air as I slammed into the wolves with everything I had. The impact sent us all tumbling in a blur of fur and claws, snarls tearing through the night. They thrashed, trying to overpower me, but I held firm.The first wolf lunged, aiming for my throat. I twisted sharply, my jaws clamping down on its scruff. With a surge of power, I hurled it aside, sending its limp body crashing into the dirt. It scrambled to its feet, hesitation flickering in its eyes, but it wasn’t done yet.The second came faster, fangs bared and eyes filled with murderous intent. It crashed into me, our bodies meeting with bone-rattling force. Pain flared through my side as its claws raked deep, but I didn’t let up. I drove us both into the underbrush, a whirlwind of snarls and strikes.I couldn’t stop. I wouldn’t. Not when Lyra and my pups were in danger. The thought of what could’ve happened if I hadn’t followed the faint trail of black fur sent

    Lyra's POV“Shit,” he groaned, shoving me so hard my body slammed into the closet doors. The impact rattled the entire frame, but I forced myself to my feet, ignoring the ache in my back. Rage coursed through me, drowning out the pain. I lunged at him, claws outstretched, aiming for his face.My attack was wild, raw, and desperate, but he was ready. With a guttural growl, Thanos shifted into his wolf form. His black fur rippled like a storm cloud, and his crimson eyes burned with malicious delight. His massive frame dwarfed me, his presence suffocating the room.His growl deepened, and he snapped his jaws at me, a warning I ignored. I charged again, my wolf instincts sharpening my senses. I swiped at his side, claws barely grazing the thick hide beneath his fur. His strength was unmatched, and it showed in every movement.With a single swipe of his massive paw, he sent me sprawling to the ground, my body skidding across the wooden floor. I scrambled up, the metallic taste of blood poo

    Lyra's POVThe soft light streaming through the window pulled me from sleep, and I rolled to the other side of the bed, clutching the pillows tightly. Their softness tempted me to drift back into slumber.A cool breeze swept into the room, pushing the beige curtains further inward. I felt it gentle touch on my face and sighed, finally sitting up. Pulling my hair into a tight bun, I made my way to the bathroom to splash water on my face.The day felt crisp, and I decided I’d take my pups out for a stroll. It had been weeks since we’d last stepped outside, and they deserved to experience the daylight and fresh air.But as I wiped my face with a towel, a faint sound caught my attention. My heart stilled. A cold shiver crawled down my spine.“I’ve waited long enough for your response,” a familiar voice said, low and menacing. “But as always, you’ve failed to get back to me. My men say you’ve been lying to them.”“That’s not true!” Sabrina’s voice trembled with fear. “You know I would neve

    Varg's POV“Marcus said he saw a lady with crying baby walk into the woods a few days ago,” Lucian said, his voice breaking the silence as we trekked through the woods, accompanied by Jacob and a few of Lucian’s Betas. “I think she’s the one they saw.”I didn’t immediately react to Lucian’s words. My mind wasn’t focused on what he was saying. Everything he’d mentioned since offering to help me had felt more like a shot in the dark.And who in the hell would believe someone like Marcus Blood Moon? The guy’s a loner who fled his pack years ago and now lives in the woods with his concubine, who, by the way, was mated to another man.The guy was insane, but I couldn’t entirely fault Lucian for trusting him. He had this odd habit of taking in whatever came his way.“That’s not enough reason to be out here wandering aimlessly,” Jacob chimed in, voicing exactly what I was thinking as he stepped up to walk alongside us.“We don’t know, but we have to try,” Lucian replied.I stayed quiet, my m

    Lyra's POV"Tell him I’ll come to him, and that he should stop spying on her," a hushed voice drifted into my ears. My eyes fluttered open, the weight of sleep still clinging to me. I carefully stood from the bed and shuffled to the window, peeking through the curtains.Sabrina was standing near the woods, her figure tense as she faced a man dressed in a black hoodie and pants. Though they were a fair distance from the house, their voices carried as if they were right beside me."Alright," the man said, his deep voice sharp and full of warning. "He doesn’t like being kept waiting."Sabrina’s gaze dropped to the ground, her fingers trembling before she steadied them with her other hand. "I won’t let you down," she replied, her tone quiet but resolute. "Tell him that."The man didn’t respond. Instead, he turned and strode into the woods, his retreating figure swallowed by the shadows. I focused on Sabrina, her shaky breaths filling the silence as she turned toward the path leading back
