Marked by the Alpha: Mated to the cursed twins Chapter 82
Axel POV I paced the length of my bedroom, feeling like the walls were closing in tighter and tighter with each and every second. The suffocating silence weighed on me heavier than usual. Zarek’s words replayed in my mind, and so did mine, the same empty reassurances I had offered a mere twenty-four hours ago; now they felt hollow, like a bottle filled with air."We’ll find a way," I had told him, my voice steadier than it had any right to be. "It’s not over." But it was over, wasn’t it? Lunette wasn’t ours anymore; that was now a fact. She had made that clear yesterday. Maybe it was because I had given him hope that I tried to cling to it myself, but I wasn't sure I was any better off than he was. How could I convince him of something I didn’t believe myself?How could I tell Zarek to hold it together when I felt like I was unraveling? A sharp laugh escaped me, and I clenched my fists, nails biting into my palms, fighting instincts that screamed at me to do something.I slamme

Axel’s POVThe bottle of whiskey felt heavy in my hand, the amber liquid sloshing as I took another swig. The whiskey burned as it slid down my throat, lighting a trail of fire all the way to my stomach. I barely flinched anymore at the taste or the burn; with the bottle in hand, I stumbled through the dimly lit hallway of the pack house, my head spinning.How many had I had so far?Two? Three?No, it had to be more. I didn’t care. It wasn’t enough anyway.My father’s words echoed in my skull, louder than the pounding of my heartbeat.“You heard me; this is your fault, and instead of accepting it, you're throwing a tantrum and wasting valuable time.” his tone that had been neither smug nor cruel, I remembered the way he looked at me like he was disappointed i

Lunette's POV The house felt quieter than usual, but it wasn’t actually a peaceful quiet; that was me trying to block out everything happening in the outside world.It wasn't really helping, though, not when the air was heavy and suffocating, making the air hard to breathe. I was trying to keep my hands busy; I was scrubbing down the last of the kitchen counters, though I’d already wiped it three times today. The maid that Mrs. Harlow had gotten kept frowning up at me like she couldn't understand what was happening exactly. I didn't blame her too, not when even I couldn't explain if I was asked to; all I knew was it kept me occupied and served as a distraction from the whispers that floated through the pack. Axel was drinking again. It wasn’t like I didn’t know he was; I was sure by now everyone knew he was drinking.The binging sprees were hard to miss—what with the sour scent of alcohol lingering in the halls whenever he passed by or the lingering bottles that were scattered a

Lunette POVI should have left the room immediately I put him to bed, but I didn't; the dimly lit room lured me into a fantasy, with the soft glow of the bedside lamp casting warm shadows across Axel’s face.Axel's room was quiet, save for the occasional creak of the old wood beneath my shifting feet; the faint scent of him lingered in the air, mixing with the sharp tang of alcohol.I stood near the door, watching him sit on the edge of his bed, his head bowed, his broad shoulders slumped with the blanket I had draped over him earlier, its edges hanging loosely around his frame, slipping slightly.His broad frame looked smaller somehow, weighed down by exhaustion and whatever demons had driven him to drink tonight."I want to shower," he mumbled all of a sudden, catching me off guard.I nodded."Ok.""I'll leave you," I whispered and stood from the bed; he gestured to me to help

Axel POV When I kissed her again, I wasn't sure what I had expected her to do; pulling away from me and slapping me was not it.I couldn’t stop staring at the door when she left; the click of the door quietly shutting behind her echoed in my chest and my ear. She was always running from me, always. My fists clenched at my sides, my nails biting into my palms as I fought against the frustration boiling beneath my skin. Why couldn’t she see it? Why did she think that running from what we both felt was the right answer? We were mates no matter what she wanted to say, no matter what she claimed.She belonged to Zarek and me. I paced around the room, my frustration bubbling over into something I couldn’t contain. I wanted to punch something, yell at her, or maybe at myself.But none of it would make a difference. She was out there, walking away from me—again, and I couldn’t let her go this time. I wouldn't let her go.Before I could talk myself out of it, I was already moving. I yanke

Lunette's POVI lay there in the dim light, still tangled in Axel's arms, my skin still flushed and tingling, almost trembling even from the assault of emotions and sensations.His arms were draped possessively around me, fingers tracing lazy circles on my bare shoulder. For a fleeting moment, the world was still, like we were in our own bubble, and I was free from the judgment, guilt, and the crushing weight of responsibility that would follow our choice.But it didn’t last.Axel's heartbeat was steady against my ear, louder to me than the silence in the room but a contrast to the chaos swirling in my mind.The room smelled of us—our shared passion and the consequences that would come later.But as the high ebbed, guilt crashed down on me like a wave, suffocating and unrelenting.My gut tightened immediately in regret at that point, but there was nothing I could do about i

Axel POV I pushed her out the door and leaned against it and took a deep breath. She didn't move immediately, and I didn't want to entertain any conversation until I was sure she was gone.I stood there, my hand on the door handle, listening as Lunette’s hurried footsteps faded down the hall. My chest felt tight, every part of me screaming to go after her. But I couldn’t. Not now. Not with her standing in the room. Lorraine wasn’t the type to back down easily, and I knew without a doubt she’d use this against us if it suited her. “How can you be so sure?” Lunette had asked, looking up at me, her eyes filled with fear, something so close to terror it had been difficult to look away. Her question had been valid, and so had my answer, because just like I had promised her, I wasn't going to let Lorraine ruin anything for her. Turning the lock with a sharp click, I leaned against the door for a moment, gathering myself. Then I turned back to the one face I didn't want to be anywhere

Axel POV "Then your father would have nothing to say about this," Lorraine said, her words cutting through the silence.My ears were ringing; maybe it was because the air in the room felt heavier than ever, pressing down on me as Lorraine’s smirk deepened. Or maybe it was because I couldn’t tell if the weight on my chest was anger, frustration, or the sickening realization of the corner she’d just backed me into. I stalked over to her, taking a step into her space, letting my wolf rise just enough for her to feel the tension crackle in the air. I leaned against the wall, fists clenched so tightly that my nails dug into my palms, my wolf snarling inside me, with the familiar mix of chaos, anger, and frustration that mirrored my own emotions. Lorraine wasn’t someone I could afford to underestimate, not with what she had just seen and not when she held the power to destroy everything in my life just to spite me. “Whatever game you think you’re playing, Lorraine, it ends now,” I gro

Lunette POV The words hung in the air like poison, each one of them slicing through me with cruelty I couldn't believe existed, I tried not to let it bother me but that didn't seem to be working. "Whore." They repeated and I struggled not to flinch "She’s not even trying to hide it." I stood there my hands trembling as I clutched the pruning shears I had been using in my garden,a place that was my solitude but yet seemed to have had all the peace drawn out of it through a thin straw, my breath stayed caught in my throat, thick and cloying .I looked down at my hands, the dirt beneath my nails and the shears in my grip blurring as tears welled in my eyes, the first instinct that screamed at me was to run, but my legs felt rooted to the ground. I wanted to confront them, to scream that they didn’t know me, that they didn’t understand. But the words caught in my throat, choked by the shame that I felt deep into my bones.But what would I say to them, that even though I was betrothe

Lunette POV The castle was buzzing with energy that. I didn’t quite describe, it wasn’t the good kind though. Lorraine’s tantrums were constantly in the background, but I did my best to ignore them. She thrived on the attention, and I refused to give her that satisfaction. Between Lorraine’s constant tantrums, the twins complete absence and my growing fear that Alpha Cormac would uncover the truth, I felt like a rabbit trapped in a den of wolves. So I did what I had been the best at doing, I poured my energy into spending time with Cormac, convincing myself that this was where my focus should be. After all, this engagement wasn’t just about us—it was about securing my future. I spent most of my days either dodging Lorraine’s pointed remarks and orders or trying to keep my composure as Cormac’s watchful eyes bore into me on our date. It was exhausting. I was on another date with him because somehow, in the midst of all this chaos, we found ourself spending more time together.

Lunette POV “What do you want?” I asked again, my voice quieter now. Her eyes gleamed with triumph as she pulled back a bit. “Ah, now we’re getting to the good part,” she said. She circled me slowly, like a predator stalking its prey. “What I want,” she said, drawing out the words, “is to see you squirm. To see you suffer, it's a past time of mine you see" she mumbled and I flinched “I’ll keep your secret,” she started walking around me like a vulture circling prey, she sounded too gleeful about this that it made it almost to difficult to let it go.“If,” she added, her smile returning, “you do exactly as I say.”My stomach dropped, and I stared at her in disbelief. “What do you mean?”“You heard me,” she said, her voice as smooth as silk lie she was an innocent girl asking for an innocent favour when we both knew that couldn't be further from the truth “If you want me to keep my mouth shut, you’re going to do what I want, when I want.”I swallowed hard, dread pooling in m

Lunnette's POV Ever since my meeting with Lorraine, in fact ever since Axel had slammed a door in my face after sending me on my merry way I had been an emotional wreck. The weight of Lorraine’s presence was floating over me like a storm cloud,a very dark and very suffocating storm cloud.My little chat with her earlier had left my nerves frayed and had my thoughts spiraling in a thousand directions. What would she do with Axel, what would she tell him? Would she expose me to the pack?I was still struggling to fit in here, and they would no doubt be people who would want me gone because I lied.Worse yet, what if she went to the twins or—goddess forbid—Alpha Cormac? My heart clenched at the thought of his piercing eyes darkening with betrayal. I had fought so hard to build this life, to protect myself and those I cared about. It couldn’t all come crashing down now, not because of her. What would I tell them!My stomach churned at the thought. I paced my room, the wood floor

Lorraine POV I stalked out of Axel's bedroom my heart pounding with satisfaction. I had gotten what I wanted and I was feeling on top of the world He had agreed to my terms. Of course, he had no choice but to. My heels clicked sharply across the hard wood floors as I made my way down the corridor, the sound echoed in the otherwise quiet space. I was familiar with these halls, just like I was familiar with the Grey Moon pack house. It was getting to dawn and the halls were still dimly lit,it would be a while before they would fully lit.It had been a while since I was back here but, I would be here a lot more often and that was amusing. A sly smile crept onto my lips as I thought about the power I now held. Axel was desperate and properly trapped, and it was all thanks to what I had stumbled upon the moment I arrived.I had not been sure how to pin him down when I left home for this pack, all I knew was I needed to get him back to me immediately. And by some sort of providence,

Zarek POVI woke up gasping for air, bolting upright as my heart hammered in my chest as the lingering effects of the nightmare clung to me like a second skin.The images were still as vivid and had seared themselves into my mind—my father’s lifeless body, blood all over the floor, Axel nowhere to be found, and Lunette’s screams as darkness swallowed her whole.I clenched my fists, trying to steady my breathing.“It’s just a dream,” I muttered, but the words felt hollow.It was just a dream.But it didn’t feel like one.I swung my legs over the edge of the bed, my hands shaking as I ran them through my damp hair.My room was suffocating; the walls seemed too close, the air too still. I swung my legs off the bed and stood, needing space, needing air.Sleep wasn’t coming back for me, not
