MATES: REMNANTS OF A BETRAYED BOND CHAPTER 67 - REJECTED QUEEN
-RAINA’S POV- Funny how, in fairy tales, things may go horribly wrong. Nothing is ever accurately depicted since everything got twisted upside down and inside out. The thin line between love and hate was crossed. It was so much easier to hold on to the bitterness when the pain of rejection was a constant reminder. Humiliated. Shattered. Humbled. The rejected Luna Queen. All of these represented me and I made the headlines on social media as well as in the newspapers. It was three days later and the wound in my heart was fresh. She-wolves joyously commented on Valen’s bachelorhood. Many expected the elders to convene for a claiming ceremony to be held or at least issue letters of candidacy to Alphas, whose daughters they thought would be outstanding Luna Queen prospects. In a rapt buzz of togetherness, the werewolf realm sang their way through the summer haze. Their droning and raves saturated the air with a tincture of annoyance that understated a terrible bitterness. On the f

-RAINA’S POV- Not everything that contains sugar is sweet. Not everything that comes from above is a blessing. “It would put you in a better position if your mating was done immediately,” Alpha Vance stated in a calm tone. He was deflecting things to make it look like it was in my best interest. “I agree,” Mom consented, looking down at Dad, who nodded. I can’t believe that my parents were in on it too. I listened, thinking that it was unfair that they all kept deciding what was good for me. After our wolves had sex for four months, I should have been impregnated. I wasn’t sure if I was. The thought of carrying Valen’s pup would complicate the situation between us. What was the rush anyway? Valen knew that I needed space, but obviously, they didn’t take my breakup with him seriously. Valen was the deceptive wrapping of an artificially sweet bond. Devoured and bleeding. The barriers crumbled whenever I was around him as the walls kept caving in. My feelings were a smoky illusion
MATES: REMNANTS OF A BETRAYED BOND CHAPTER 69 - REPUDIATION
-VALEN’S POV-It’s over?Yesterday, Raina said it was over.What the fuck?Why should I accept that?My heaving chest was loaded with the uncontrollable rage my wolf discharged in me. It accompanied a persistent desire to take Raina, hold her close, and carry her far away from everyone. She'd be available just for me."Get your ass up, Theo!" I roared. My eyes swept the training ground at all the shirtless alphas at Wolkrane, I needed more of them to challenge me. "Carson, Delroy, Wentz, Lawrence, Santiago, Chen, and Pierre, join the ring."Red was the color of the day.Five naked and bloodied Alphas laid unconscious on the dirty ground and were being pulled away. I stood in the center of the sparring field to unleash every ounce of fury inside of me. I woke these suckers at three this morning since I couldn't sleep.Heaven’s fireball was high in the sky. Hafts of its rays drowned the island in heat. Everyone wore only shorts. Well, they've been training and now it was time to test th

-RAINA'S POV-It was 6 a.m. The grey and white panel pair curtains were drawn at my windows to let the awakening magic of the sunrise fill the bedroom with light.Here I stood in my room scrutinizing what was supposed to be a disguise. The image that the mirror reflected might work to get past the lot of Omegas at the packhouse and the medical staff.I pressed a hand to my tummy, wondering if there was a bun in the oven. Four months of mating between our wolves were sure to get me pregnant. I heaved up breakfast yesterday. Therefore, today, I decided to skip the meal.It was also possible that the frequent queasy feeling was caused by my lack of eating. Or perhaps I was trying to make an excuse rather than to believe that I was pregnant.A baby.It would be nice. I would love my child.But, I don't know. Am I ready? Can I do this when Valen and I are not stable?On the other hand, if I hadn't conceived, then why not? Was there an issue?It was frustrating.I figured that I could sneak
MATES: REMNANTS OF A BETRAYED BOND CHAPTER 71- SORDID SIN
-RAINA’S POV- There was a group of girls sitting on the couch in the living room area. Valen dragged me over to them. With his free hand, he grasped the wrist of the blond-haired one with gray eyes and hauled her to her feet. “Alpha, please don’t hurt me!” The poor girl shrieked in terror. “I didn’t do anything.” “Leave her alone. She’s not a part of our beef.” I appealed for the innocent girl. My brows dipped. She whimpered in a complete state of panic. With that deranged expression in his eyes, I wondered what he was going to do to her. Inquisitiveness and concern for the unpredictable propelled me to fight the hand that bound me to his side in hopes of saving the petrified girl. An awry intuition hinted that something terrible was about to go wrong. “This is between you and me,” I touted. Valen gave me an ugly sneer. "Is this the monster that you want?" He crashed his mouth on the she-wolf who was fucking enjoying it. My mouth opened in a silent scream. My eyes watered. My h
MATES: REMNANTS OF A BETRAYED BOND CHAPTER 72 - ZEUS' VISIT
-RAINA’S POV- Shivering in fear, anger, and humiliation, I went past him to the open doorway. “Get out!” The sight of him made my lips tremble and my eyes rankled. Being near him was unbearable. My breathing labored and my hand shook as I pointed in the direction for him to leave. I had to hide the excruciating heartache that wafted into me. In his presence, I would crumble and the pile of leaves I had raked up from the dismal corners of my life was sure to be blown away, scattering my emotions and returning the scene to a cluttered landscape once more. Fur began to sprout from his pores. The dynamic shift coated his muscled thighs, calves, and hands in short black fur. He turned and strutted over to me with intense growling. Then he slammed a powerful fist on the threshold. I flinched at the loud bang. Angst brewed inside of me as his black eyes penetrated mine. His wolf was out and he was still naked. Although Valen had not fully shifted, Zeus was the one that I was facing. The

-RAINA’S POV- Time froze. Earth stopped rotating. Zeus’ dark and red eyes gave me a long, puppy-like, heartbreaking expression. They dug into my soul. Closing my eyes, I shattered the hourglass with the courage I convoked. My heartbeat rushed when I opened them. The back of his finger caressed my cheek. “Don’t mark me,” I remarked, because I was still nursing a deep-seated anguish that would return once the pleasure he wanted had dissipated. Also, my infertility was a whopping issue that could not be swept under the carpet. The truth of my barrenness was utterly unbearable. Being infertile was an obstacle on the path of despair. Zeus would be devastated to know that I couldn't produce his pups. I couldn’t tell him to stop loving me. The affection, pleading, and even desperation in his gaze made my stomach wrench painfully. Guilt soaked into every part of my body for saying no to him when he wasn't the culprit that hurt me. His face fell with disappointment and he lowly growle
MATES: REMNANTS OF A BETRAYED BOND CHAPTER 74 - NO PROMISES
-RAINA’S POV- “Fucking look at me, Raina!” Valen ordered in a fear-instilling tone, feral and gravelly. The gall of him! Things can never be the same for us. His previous words made my heart bleed. This wasn’t the man I thought I knew. It turned out that I did not know him at all. This was all about the power in me. That’s what he truly wanted. It must be, for all those years he ignored me. “You think that you can let Zeus sweet talk me and it’ll make things better……and all the hurt and pain would go away. It doesn’t work that way!” I yelled at him and my voice cracked at the end. Sobs racked my body, draining down my cheeks, and were absorbed by the sheet around my body. My hands covered my face and he remained silent. I shouldn’t break down with him in the room. Fighting the pain, I stopped my breath to digest my tears. To summon calmness, I inhaled sharply and let out a harsh exhalation, wiping my face with my hands. “Then don’t make it hard for either of us.” My tears evoked a

-VALEN’S POV-“Gustav!” I roared, nakedly stomping through the circular pillars with Zuzu perched on my right shoulder. “Get out here!”Chasing him brought me to Pindus in Greece at the Temple of Zannos. It was an albescent-white, Doric-styled, pentagon-shaped building that lacked care and was covered with limestone dust. On the walls were featured engravings of weapons and symbols that I also recognized were identical to the ones that were inscribed on the Worgens' foreheads.“No need to be so loud, Alpha Prince.” Gustav groused with his back to me. The hem of his cream trench coat carpeted the ground, right next to his enormous sword. “Even the gods can hear you shouting.”Up ahead in the dusty grand hall, he was down on one knee with his white head bowed to the light blue, marble, fifty-foot statue of Selene. She was gracefully sitting on a crescent moon with a beige wolf around her shoulders as she glanced down at the queen of the night flower she was holding up in her left hand. T

-VALEN’S POV-“Holy fuck.” I panted out as the sweet sensations rocked me.Her pouty candy-pink lips began moving up and down my length. She started bobbing her head back and forth. My hand coiled a large bunch of burgundy strands on the top of her head, helping her with the pace.“Deep breaths—yeah, take it.” My lips parted, and I blew out invisible puffs of air.The pleasure was overwhelming, almost making me forget what we were fighting about before. She picked up the pace, fisting the bottom of my shaft with one hand while she sucked the top and repeated.“So good, baby,” I remarked huskily. “Show me how badly you want it.”Already my balls were tensing up and stars exploded behind my eyelids as my orgasm drew near. She hummed around my dick, licking it good as I drew it out of her mouth.I grunted and thrust my hip forward with more force this time, hitting the back of my throat. Her pretty mouth was driving me nuts. The way her tongue moved against the ridges was giving me a whi

-RAINA’S POV-Yellow flags billowed in my head as the mood shifted sourly. Hot, angry puffs of air expelled from Valen’s nostrils. His blazing emeralds locked with my subtle blues.“Hold on a sec.” I scrambled to the edge of the bed and sat up with a frown. “That’s not what I’m saying.”“Really, Raina?” Valen asked me with hidden anger in his voice. “That crab-louse took Vaheed, and you aren’t in a hurry to get my brother back, especially since that’s the only way for us to find out what happened to Devin.”“I know that,” I muttered in a casual tone, licking my dry lips.“Vaheed isn’t with us because of him.” Valen’s voice rose, and he raked back his black hair with a frustrated hand. He turned and walked towards the glass doors to the balcony, aggressively parted the green drapes, and looked out into the gray sky.“I want to summon Gustav, but I don’t know how,” I expressed, feeling crappy that he had a valid point. “Plus you have that murderous gleam that you are going to kill him w

-RAINA’S POV-Brewing with optimism, I watched in awe as the lavender glow disbursed, engulfing Devin's body in a gentle aura of shimmering energy. Like an X-ray, it lit up his skeleton, making it visibly orange with red veins.It was as if the very essence of magic itself was sieving through him, whirling new life into his motionless form. His body was healing, closing the gruesome wound on his chest and reconnecting the superior vena cava."Hang in there, Duke. Your boy is strong. He can make it." Alpha Vance tried to provide some solace.Uncle Duke began pacing while ruffling a hand through his blonde hair. “Come on Smithson, the moon can’t have you today.”Valen's expression was one of intense concentration. His features were set in determination as he exerted more streams of his magic into Devin.For a moment, time seemed to stand still as we held our collective breath, waiting with bated anticipation for any sign of change.And then, it happened.A faint ripple sifted through De

Unlike the sunset that spread a rainbow flame upon the evening's sky.On a magically conjured table floating ahead of us, courtesy of Valen, Devin's massacred body laid supine.The journey from the yacht to Petroside Grove felt longer than ever before, and Zeus’ sprints echoed with emptiness, silently knowing that things would be different now.As we approached the witch’s cottage, the scene on the off-white porch was one of heartbreak and despair. Miriam, Marlena, Alpha Vance, Uncle Duke, Luna Sianna, and Keisha stood waiting. Their faces were etched with grief as they watched us draw near.Zeus lowered his large, black, furry body so that I jumped from his back, and then Valen shifted. Keisha immediately rushed towards Devin. My heart ached for Keisha as I watched her crumble. With haste, Uncle Duke wrapped his arms around her waist to keep her off the ground."I'm so sorry," I whispered to them

-RAINA’S POV-“The plans they have for us are diabolic.” Vaheed grabbed my arm, startling me as he pulled me to his side.His aura had a scary quality—one that was sickening and could make me puke. He was not my mate, so my body rebelled, seething at being manhandled.Vaheed’s desperate gaze locked on mine, begging me to side with him. “I’m going to kill him, Raina. Tell whitey to leave. We don't want his kind here.”“If you back off, Vaheed, so will he,” I rasped out, which made him livid. His harlequin greens flickered like black coals about to catch fire.Gustav lifted his chin in opposition. “I would not be here if she was not in danger.”Vaheed grinned deviously. “A Worgen….protecting a human? Don't make me laugh. I know all about you and your horde.”“Yes, you do.” I highlighted, “You have a lot of information that we need to make better preparations against them. I suggest we get you to your Mom's for a check-up, and then we'll have a meeting to discuss all that you can tell us

-RAINA’S POV-“Gustav,” I breathed out, still very skeptical of his presence.This pivotal moment would test the guardian bond. With bated breath, I stared at his hand, contemplating taking it. He noticed the alarm on my face and put both of his hands up in a surrender pose.“I mean you no harm, Kókkino,” he said, cocking his head, slightly concerned.Ruffling and a dull creak of dry hinges sounded across the room. My eyes found Vaheed pinned to the decorative, backlit stone wall feature.Grunting with lips pulled over his teeth, his hands gripped and wrested against the formidable, six-foot, double-bladed sword that threatened to slash him in halves. One tip of its broad jagged blade screeched against the floorboard.Panicking, I glanced back at Gustav, in a terrified voice, “Do not kill him.”“He's dangerous.” Gustav furrowed his brows, confused as to why I'd want to spare him, but he relented with an exhalation. He held out his hand and the intimidating weapon whirred back to its o

Where was his empathy? “But you knew he was attacked!” I shouted amidst my sobbing, pointing at Devin’s bloody body.“He didn't stand a chance and with loverboy sleeping, neither do you.” His brows knitted as he seemed to be listening for something.I shook my head wildly, beginning to panic. I glanced around frantically, “You brought the Worgens here? Where are they?”Releasing a distressful sigh, Vaheed held up his forefinger and swirled it in the air. “It's the other way around.” He dropped his hand, coming towards me.Smothering my weeping, I watched him cautiously. My heart thumped hard in my chest and I recoiled. I did not want him near me.His eyes widened. “They're coming.” His feet quickened towards me, bending and reaching out his hand under my knees to lift me. “I've got a p

-RAINA’S POV-“Devin, I thought you were going to keep me company.” I launched my voice through the mind-link, hoping for a response. “Dev?”Three seconds passed as I waited for a reply.Nothing.“You found it.” Vaheed’s voice snapped me out of the connection. His eyes softened and landed on the first aid kit in my hands.“Yes,” I answered with a smile, giving the kit a little shake. “Shouldn’t you be lying down?”He shrugged. “I’m feeling better.”How? I wondered. My eyes checked him over. With silver in his body, he would have fainted by now.“Well, you look like shit and smell like Swamp Thing.” I let out a tiny chuckle.Vaheed humphed, unamused. Bad joke, I guess.I stretched one hand out to him and bobbed my head to the side. “Come, let me clean you up in the dining room.”He stayed rooted and asked indifferently, “What's up with my brother? I thought he wasn't around.” He lifted his chin to look down his nose at me. “He’s unconscious. What happened to him?”“He, uh, er.” What sh
