Serena's POV

Emma was in charge here, whatever she said was the final verdict.

As my punishment, she had said that I should not be given dinner. I was alone in my room, I was hungry, and pain had dominated my body from the fight from earlier.

My stomach kept making a rumbling sound. It was already getting late, I could not go out to the kitchen to get food on my own because I never wanted to run into Arden.

His terrifying eyes were scary and I wasn't ready to see them again. Moreover, I didn't do anything wrong, he had simply misunderstood me, without a chance to explain myself.

After I returned to the dormitory, I picked up the few things I found in the scanty first aid kit to tend to my wounds.

It was burning like I had just returned from war. My heart was broken, I was alone, and my mate didn't care if I died or lived, he wasn't even aware of the the way I was bullied.

How long do I have to live like this? I couldn't believe I was brought here to continue to live in a hellhole. My

And then, my thoughts were confirmed.The scent belong to who I thought it would be.It was Serena.When she opened the door, she was in a daze to find me in the shower with my bare body.I was naked and her eyes which had already seen my third leg were shut quickly, but i

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 15 GET DISAPPOINTED

    Serena's POVI guess it was another unlucky day for me.When I opened the door to the shower, I was stunned by the sight before my eyes. Arden was naked and subconsciously my eyes went down to his big d*ck.However, he demanded that I stay naked to prepare the room. I had to do it because he threatened to invite more people to watch me. I could feel his eyes feast on my body and it made me feel pathetic.I finished preparing the room on time and I was done, I was getting ready to leave when Arden asked me to stay.My heartbeat accelerated, and pain coursed through my chest. I was disappointed and dissatisfied.I could not believe that Arden would make me stay to watch him have sex with Sylvia.What could be more heartbreaking than this? It was painful, I was deeply hurt.There was no difference between him and Derek. Back at his pack too, he used to make me watch him having fun with his prostitutes, sometimes he would even bring two women at a time.I was used to this life, but I didn

    Zone's POVThe Lycan King, Arden, was my cousin, the one I admired most. My father's clan was not powerful, but my mother, Ardan's father's sister, happily accepted her mate who was an alpha from a small pack when she found out.My father was content with his circumstances, easily satisfied, but this was a deadly danger in a wolf pack. Lycans took pride in occupying more territory than others. My little sis passed away in a rogue attack due to my father's weakness. So I trained rigorously from a young age. I would not allow the same tragedy to happen again!I was grateful that my abilities were noticed by all the packs, allowing me the opportunity to train in the palace, a plan proposed by Ardan himself.I was delighted to see him again, as he embodied who I aspired to become. However, I did not expect to fall for an omega, and it seemed something had occurred between her and Ardan.Her name was Serena and she was an Omega. The situation was not so pretty. And Arden somehow found us t

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 17 Cold and Unfeeling

    Arden's POVI had no idea if it was because Serena was my mate. Sex with her feels great and exciting. I was filled with excitement and warmth after Serena left the room. I could not get over the wild night we had together.“That was great! It's the absolute best!” Alf was excited too, and the experience was still lingering in him. I couldn't have had a better experience with someone else. I could not get over the feeling all night. She was addictive, she had me wanting more and more of her.“I wish you would accept her as the queen during the bonding ceremony, though” Alf whined. “Don't say that again, please. You don't know that she is of no use to us? She is weak, and her status is far behind, so how can such a person become the queen?” I argued with Alf.Everyone knows that being an Omega is already a defect for anyone, and as such, they are not so relevant In the wolf's society because of their low status.If she becomes the queen, I would automatically shoulder the responsibilit

    Serena's POVIt hurts deeper when you are hit with the reality of knowing that there is no place for you.It's even more painful when the one who was meant to protect you is the cause of your broken heart.After the wild night Arden and I had, my body was no longer mine, I was left weak and sore.And to make matters worse, I stood outside in the cold since the door was locked.If Arden had truly cared about me, he would not allow me to go out in the cold, he would even take care of my body too.But since I meant to him and I was just a thing he used to satisfy his sexual desire whenever he liked, there was no point in checking if I was all right or not.The last flash I had before I passed out was not clear to me. But I was grateful the person showed up at the right time.I woke up feeling light like I had been asleep for hours, all the pain from my wounds had reduced, and my sore private area had healed too.The pain down there was too much for me to take in because of how rough Arde

    Serena's POVSerena's POVThere is probably nothing more embarrassing than falling to the ground in an event, one that is packed with people of high status in society.Especially when you are way below them, you become nothing but a subject of ridicule and rumor.Everybody's irritated eyes were fixed on me, and I felt like they should open and I should hide inside it, I wanted to disappear. I felt so pathetic like I was just a joke.It was as though the spirit of shame hovered around me and followed me everywhere I went.I bit myself. Maybe I shouldn't have come here at all, maybe I should have remained in the room where Zone left me peacefully.Maybe I shouldn't have come out to witness my mate announcing another she-wolf as his future queen.The shame and embarrassment dug deep into my flesh, but the pain my heart felt caused my entire being to shake like a quake.Was I cursed? Why was I even asking again when the obvious truth was not far from my mind?Then I remember that I begged

    Serena's POVThe way fate plays games with everyone is unpredictable. What you thought would be might even be far from reality. And the one you least expected might be what the universe has in store for you. The sad thing is that you keep feeling like a curse. Just like I felt every time something negative happened around me. Even though I had given up mentally on the hope that Arden would see me for who I was and learn to appreciate my being somewhere in my heart, I still wished it was not valid. I thought he was punishing me, and he didn't want Sylvia or any other she-wolfs but me.But looking, he already announced publicly that Sylvia would be his queen. There was nothing to hope for anymore. My faith died instantly.Arden had told Alpha Zone's parents he wouldn't let me leave the palace. That means there would be no way out for me again. I gave up dignity and accepted defeat. “I am sorry, Alphas. I apologize for my behavior; I do not mean to cause disruption intentionally,” I plea

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 21 TAKEN TO THE PRISON

    Serena's POV Although Arden had sexually forced himself on me several times, which my body adjusted to as time went on because he was my mate, I never thought it would get to a place where he would get physical with me. Although my eyes went blur immediately I was slapped, the pain I felt was nothing compared to the shock that took charge of my being. I never expected him to hit me. I fell to the ground immediately, holding my cheek with my hands. I could not look up at him for a while, although they knew what happened, the maids were making fun of me as everyone started laughing. I guess there was no end to my humiliation in that palace. “How dare you? You filthy slut! Do you dare lay your dirty hands on my future queen? You are in trouble!” Arden's thunderous voice echoed across the living room and there was total silence. “I promise, I didn't do anything” I explained with a shaky voice, my eyes fixed on the floor as I was too afraid to look up at him. “Goodness, your audacious ch

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 269 THE RITUAL OF FREEDOM

    Evelyn PoVAt first, I had not thought that Gilly's story would turn out to be so tragic. I thought I was merely doing my mother a favour: I was releasing a spirit and giving peace to the pack. But every single step I took in the direction of solving was heavy with shadows that just threw more secrets in my direction. I could feel the darkness circling in, twisting me into a hangman's noose.The old records of the pack were dusty and brittle, worn yellow with age. Weeks I spent in the archives bent over a desk deciphering the scribbled handwriting and cryptic notes. Draven helped where he could, his fingers dancing over ancient texts while I pieced together, bit by bit, the fragmented history of Gilly's downfall.It started innocent enough. Gilly was loved; with those attributes of kindness and strength, she was never really a natural leader. Somehow respect turned to jealousy, and jealousy turned to betrayal. The swirling in the ancient documents held very hostile stories of a family

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 268 THE SPIRITS TRAP

    Authors PoVThey started like whispers in the night.In the stillness of sleep, they forced their way into her brain to take her through dark and twisted visions. Some shadows curled around her, cold and snake-like; their touch glided over the rippling skin and left frosted impressions behind. The dreams picked their way through her nightmares the same way—her pack in chains, expressionless and with eyes like black pits; there was someone ahead, a person cloaked in shadows.The figure's face shifted and distorted; at one time it would be reminiscent of Gilly with her soft features, at another of Gloria, with that awful smirk. She would desperately attempt to run, to scream, but either the land would crumble beneath her feet, swallowing her whole in the world, until she woke up gasping for air.The dreams haunted her daily, tormenting her with the reality of the world outside the realm of sleep. Gilly's spirit seemed to linger in the edges of reality sewn into the very fabric that woul

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 267 THE BLOOD OF THE BETRAYED

    Evelyn PoVThe truth sat heavy on my chest, a stone sinking into dark waters. Gilly's voice lingered in my mind, a soft, desperate whisper threading through my thoughts even as I went through the motions of daily life. The blood of the betrayed will break the chains.Those words had been haunting me ever since the ritual with Draven, every syllable a jigsaw puzzle piece that refused to fit. What betrayal? Whose blood? The answers I sorely craved could only be unearthed by digging deeper into Gilly's past, the life which she had led before Gloria's darkness swallowed her whole.I started my search among the old documents located in the pack's ancient archive building where old books and fragile scrolls blended their aged scent with forgotten tales. For hours I studied the pack's historical records that included birth and death records as well as political alliances and loyalty breakdowns. Being careful with my page turns made me sharply conscious that the sound of crinkling pages carri

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 266 UNVEILING SHADOWS

    Evelyn PoVWas this a mere figment of my imagination?… Gilly’s voice had become an echo that trickled into the stillness, catching me unawares. The torment did not even allow me peace in sleep. I would close my eyes, and her voice would take me into shadowed dreams-corridors layered in darkness, chains clanking in the distance."Evelyn."It now sounded weak and soft, no more than an echo but soon merely a whisper grazing my skin. Jerking upright in bed, I pulled the blanket tighter around my shoulders."Wh-What do you want from me?" I whispered back, my voice lost in the dark.Silence.I woke up abruptly from my bed before drawing the blanket closer to protect my shoulders."What do you want from me?" I demanded quietly. I managed to answer him but my words vanished into the darkness.Silence.I clenched my fists. “If you’re real I need to see you to be sure.”The air moved through the room as the window remained closed. The candle flame moved in an unexpected sideways wave as though

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 265 MARCUS’s CONFESSION

    Evelyn’s PoVAs I came to stand amidst the rubble of Odessa’s fortress, there rioted smells of smoke and blood. The bodies of both friends and foes lay scattered on the ground from a battle that, to me, seemed less a victory than a doomsday. My body screamed for peace, and the tightness of every muscle felt unbearable; yet it could hardly compare with the turmoil within me.Finian stood a few paces away, his eyes piercing into mine. His expression was inscrutable-somewhere between hope and acceptance. His knuckles were bruised, his hair caked with dirt, and yet still he seemed the bedrock I have leaned upon during my stay with the pack at Odessa. He had saved me countless times, and now, standing before freedom, I no longer knew where we stood.And then there was Marcus.He emerged from the smoke like an apparition. Relief, pain, and something else—something much deeper, something older, much older—were stamped on his face, making my chest tighten. The last rays of sunlight broke thro

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 264 THE BEGINNING OF WAR

    Author PoVBefore sentries had time to alert their camp the arrows struck their targets. The wolves crashed into each other while they shifted as their howls unified their counterparts.Inside the fortress, Evelyn felt it. The vibrations of battle were within her, through the stone walls, deep and low; she felt a low hum settle deep into her bones. She was clasped in silver chains burning against the skin, watching Finian about to die.One of the guards entered the room quickly, his face extremely pale. "We are under attack!"Odessa's face hardened, "By whom?""Callum and his people… he’s alive my alpha. And the Red Blood Moon pack."Odessa's lips twisted into a snarl. "Then they have come to die." She turned toward Evelyn, handing her a dagger she had drawn from her belt. "I ought to kill you. But I will save you for last.”Evelyn then looked into Odessa's eyes, her fear burning away and replaced by determination. "No, I will save you for last.”Then the ambush began. Callum and Ryan

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 263 A RECKLESS RESCUE MISSION

    Author PoVThe woods was dark as Marcus and Luca passed through the underbrush in silence. Marcus’s heart thudded against his ribs, with a steady caution. He glanced toward Luca, who had graduated from one stern face of determination to intent.They had been trudging through the woods for hours on nothing more than scraps of intelligence and the stubborn pull of hope. Ryan's rogues had pointed them in the right direction but were ultimately not adventurous enough to try to approach the Red Blood Moon pack directly. After all, Odessa's territory was a death trap of sorts. Even the most adventurous rogues knew better than to cross her borders without sufficient cause.The moonlight was just enough to see the outlines of makeshift tents and some shadows on watch. Marcus motioned for Luca to keep it low and crouched behind some ferns to take in the camp."Do you see her?" Luca whispered in a voice so faint it was almost a sigh."Not yet," Marcus ground out, struggling to make each breath

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 262 THE DREAM

    Serena’s PoVTears stung my eyes, and I woke up in a start with broken breath as the persistence of the dream clung to me. In this muted room, shadows danced upon the wall; for a second, I was hardly certain of where I stood. The dream had borne the reality—Odessa, her eyes bright with evil gleam, standing atop a heap of bones. Her army, a roar of growling rogues and defiled creatures spread out to the last sight. And then there was Evelyn... Evelyn was there, firmly standing by the side of Odessa, the empty look on her face an undercover of madness.I put my trembling hand over my forehead, it was sweating. This dream wasn't just a figment of imagination; it was a warning.I pushed aside the thick furs, stood, and went to the unbarred window. The pack grounds lay quiet, a deceitful calm before a storm. My instincts screeched like a mother's intuition that something far worse than what we had imagined was in the making.If only I could make Ardan see it too.But Ardan... he was no lon

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 261 A FAKE DEATH

    Evelyn’s PoVThe dagger felt heavy and cold in my palm. Odessa’s cold demand rang in my ears. Kill Callum. Bring me his head. This wasn’t a test or ,twisted game to see how far I would go to prove my loyalties. I just had to do it. I knew I had to do it.If I turned it down, she would turn against me. If I carried out her order, I would lose the only ally I had managed to win over. Either way, she would win.Not this time.Finian walked beside me as we traveled through the thick forest. His expression was a mixture of concern and determination. He had not questioned me for warning Callum. He had not hollered when I insisted we needed to fake a death, to give like a disguise for the purpose of tricking Odessa into believing I had done my job. Instead, he nodded, affirming my sense of loyalty."Are you sure it will work?" he asked softly."It must." I responded. "If Odessa realises we lied to her, we would be dead."
