Mate? Or Die! Chapter 36 THE HEAT CYCLE
Serena's POVSometimes, you are too busy being careful without even knowing that what you were avoiding is right under your nose.I was stunned, surprise and shock took over my heart when I saw Arden standing by the doorway.He was even more surprised than I was, his expression was more of shock than disgust. His sharp eyes gazed at Alpha Zone with horror.My throat began to burn like it was set on fire, and my legs felt frozen but losing balance at the same time. I was waiting for what would happen next, but instead of yelling at me or humiliating me as usual, he ordered Alpha Zone to follow him and they both went away immediately.At first, I had thought Arden had come to the villa to see me, but it immediately hit me that it was just an illusion, he couldn't have come this far to see me. After all, he had threatened me hours ago.Although it was just a fake kiss Alpha Zone staged to protect me from Sylvia and her vultures, I was still worried that Arden might give him a hard time,

Arden's POV.Just a while ago, Emma and Alf were busy giving me a sermon on how good and upright Serena is. Their words had unsettled my mind so much that I was confused, wondering if I was truly wrong about her.But how did it go? The day had not even ended, yet I saw her with Zone, my cousin, kissing in public with no shame.I guess there was no limit to her shamelessness. She could never hold herself together. She constantly felt the need to be under a man while their third leg was deep into her as they pounced on her until she lost consciousness.I didn't even have to try getting that image of her out of my head. She was truly a seductive slut, and that is final. I didn't care if Alf agreed with me or not.But I wouldn't be wasting my time and strength on getting her to explain. She would only pour out more lies. I would rather talk to my brother.I ordered Zone to follow me immediately, and he did.I was furious and disappointed with him for kissing her. He could have avoided it

Serena's POVMy encounter with Rachael left me feeling pretty and warm. I never thought there was someone in this world who is a high-ranking werewolf and she doesn't look down on me.I fell in love with her person instantly, she was cool. After all this world is not filled with darkness. Stars are serving as a light for us.After the training session, Rachael and I departed and went our separate ways, I retired to my room feeling grateful for the gift of a friend and the sudden appearance of Alpha Zone who rescued me.Just like Rachael had warned me earlier, I locked my room and perched on my mattress hoping that the night would be over soon.The full moon night began, and my mystery came with it too.As I lay down on my back with my eyes closed, my legs crossed but it was not helping. The more the tingling sensation between might thighs increased, the more I tightened up my legs.It was driving me crazy. Soon, my Virgina began to drip, I was wet for obvious reasons. The heat cycle w

Arden's POVAlf's reminder got me worried and I hurried to the villa to look for Serena. On getting there, she was nowhere to be found. I did not want to call unnecessary attention, so I decided to look for her on my own.I perceived a familiar scent and I traced it, my mind was racing. Alf raged, he was not going to take it easy with me if anything happened to our mate.I walked fast across the pathway, the scent I was using to trace her was leading me to the armoury.I overheard Serena's voice from a place not too far away from me again, soon, laughter overshadowed her voice. I followed the direction where the laughter was coming from and there she was!She was in danger.After the werewolves ran off, Serena was lying unconscious in my arms.I couldn't take her to the hospital on my own, and I did not want too many people to hear about this, she would be the subject of discussion all over again.I remembered that my cousin's daughter was around for the training too and she was a fam
Last Updated : 2024-08-13Mate? Or Die! Chapter 40 EVICTED FROM THE TRAINING
Serena's POVI had lost control a while ago after waking up from my unconscious state. My core was burning with desire and my entire body desperately longed to be touched.That was all I could remember. All I knew was the feeling of pleasure and satisfaction that replaced my hunger gradually as I slowly regained consciousness.My eyes lit up and I was bare and naked as I laid next to Arden who was already exhausted and drenched in sweat just like myself.A sense of realization hit me and I recalled all that happened throughout the night. I felt a bit embarrassed.My cloth was already turned to a rag by the werewolf that chased me. I stretched my hand and picked Arden's shirt that was laying not too far from me and I put it on.I didn't even have a reason, but I apologized to Arden and headed to the door.His words stopped me in track. According to him, the heat cycle lasts more than a day. Reluctantly, I returned to the couch and perched on it. Without saying a word to each other, the
Last Updated : 2024-08-13Mate? Or Die! Chapter 41 SEEK HELP FROM ARDEN
Serena's POVI had told Leia that if I caught more prey than she does, she would apologize to me and she would never trouble me again. She agreed and I was glad she did.It was a smart way to get her off my back as quickly as possible, since I could never fight her physically.Even though I knew I had no strength like her, I was still willing to take the risk.Unknown to me, it was about to be a bloody adventure. We would soon find out as we proceeded with the hunt.Rachael felt it was just a class task and we might not necessarily come across any formidable opponent. She was right. It was just an assignment we needed to do in order to improve our grades and most importantly, to have the knowledge.However, I was not going to joke with it or take it with levity. Even if I failed, I would know that I did try my best in the long run.But in reality, it does not look like we were going there just for games. It was about to be a long day.Even by the attitude the heavy cloud was throwing
Last Updated : 2024-08-13Mate? Or Die! Chapter 42 HOLD ON TO ME
Serena's POVFear is a forceful element, it would break into every part of one's body, thereby causing a shattering vibration.For a brief moment, I had thought that this would be the end of me and I had no chance of survival.The giant wolf must have been in that forest for a while, tricking its prey with the same method he used on me.I think it was a clever move. One could easily apply this trick to some areas of one's growth and development.Although I was already looking at death deep into its eyes, I was still busy admiring the wisdom of this monster.When the strange force dragged me away, I thought another giant wolf was hiding in the forest that we did not know about.As a werewolf, I could not shift, I had no outstanding power strong enough to fight a monster and talk more of two monsters. So I was certain that this would be the end of me.Even if Rachael had not gone back to seek help from Arden, we couldn't have fought these monsters alone.Unknown to me, I was just making
Last Updated : 2024-08-13Mate? Or Die! Chapter 43 I WANT YOU
Serena's POVThe familiar smell hung arrogantly in the air. The hospital smell provoked my stomach and I began to feel nauseous. I entered the room and Arden was spread on the hospital bed as he was deep asleep.I stood beside his bed admiring his tired face that still managed to shine bright under the beaming light.I was carried away by the beauty of the man lying before me until I heard footsteps approaching. I adjusted myself immediately and wanted to sneak out again.But I felt Arden's hand holding my wrist, I was startled out of fear, he was asking me to stay. I was a bit shy but I waited by his side.He patted the space beside him on the bed, gesturing for me to lie down next to him. I was reluctant at first, worried that someone might come in and see us. But I did as I was told eventually.I lay next to Arden, feeling anxious about nothing. My mom's was wandering around aimlessly with no destination. He laid on his back while I lay down sideways to face him.Soon, the door cre

Mate? Or Die! Chapter 162 THE AFTERMATH
The pack house had fallen quiet these last few days. Gilly’s sacrifice still lived on, and though the witches’ messenger had assured me that their coven was broken and the rogue attacks would cease, my instincts refused to settle.But there was no time to grieve anymore. Not fully.I sat at the edge of the table in the main hall with maps of our territory spread across the wood. On the surface also, we’re scribbled notes. My mind was not at rest. I knew I couldn’t undo the past, but I could fortify our future.The door creaked open and Zone came in. He stopped at my side with his sharp eyes narrowing as they flickered across the map. He leaned casually against the table, arms crossed, but I didn’t miss the tension in his stance.“You’re wearing yourself thin, Serena,” he said in a gruff yet careful tone. “You’ve barely slept.”I kept my eyes on the borderlines we’d marked earli
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 161 UNCERTAIN PEACE
I stood at outside the pack house. After everything, after Gloria, after Gilly—the eerie silence was unnatural. As if even the earth mourned. I wrapped my arms around myself, feeling the chill in the wind biting at my skin despite the sunlight that peeked through the tree branches. I knew it was coming—consequences always did.I went back into the pack house and just then, there was a soft knock on the pack house door. When I opened it, a witch stood before me. I recognised her type immediately. Though I didn’t know her name, she reeked of magic.I narrowed my eyes but stepped aside to let her enter. “Why are you here?” I said stiffly.The witch bowed her head. “To bring you news... and to seek forgiveness.”“Forgiveness? For what exactly?”She hesitated. “The witches’ coven is broken. Without Gloria, it... it crumbled,” she said softly. “Many of us were loyal to her out
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 160 THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE
The moment Gloria began chanting her dark spells, I knew we were running out of time. The woods vibrated with the pulse of her magic. Her magic coiled around Gilly like a snake. Gloria had broken Zone from the spell she had him in. Gilly lay limp in Zone’s arms, her breaths were shallow and weak, and her face was pale and barely recognisable as the girl I had fought so hard to save.I needed to act now. We had come this far not to just give up. I clenched my fists as I felt the power of being the wolf mother overcome me. It was raw and overwhelming.“Serena!” Ardan called.I didn’t respond. Instead, I planted my feet, inhaling deeply as I reached into the depths of my power. The ground beneath me trembled as the Wolf mother within me awoke fully.The spell Gloria had used to protect herself began faltering as my power collided with her dark magic. Gloria staggered back, snarling. “No!” she screeched.Zone seized
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 159 A FROZEN NIGHTMARE
Where we were felt like a frozen nightmare, every breath I took was heavy. My teeth was bared and my claws were ready, as Ardan, Zone, and I stepped forward. Gilly knelt on the ground. Her pale form was trembling. Standing beside her was Gloria,And Roman—he stood at Gloria’s side, tall and unshaken with a cruel smirk tugging at his lips.“You should have stayed away,” Roman said. “But then again, I suppose you couldn’t help yourself, could you?”“Let her go for the last time,” I growled.Gloria chuckled softly. “Oh, the mighty Wolf mother has come to save her little pawn. How predictable.” Her eyes were fixed on me, sharp as a dagger. “You think you can stop me? You, with your fractured power and naïve ideals? You will fall, Serena. It’s only a matter of time.”“And the time is now.” Roman declared. He mumbled a spell and a rush of wind brought me
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 158 THE TRUTH IN THE SHADOWS
Serena’s PoVThe medical wing was quiet—too quiet. I expected to hear Gilly’s faint breathing or the sound of Draven’s footsteps, but instead, the silence felt odd. Sally knew something was off and as I stepped inside, the hair on the back of my neck stood.“Gilly?” I called softly with my voice echoing off the walls.There was no response. I quickened my pace as I moved to Gilly’s room. The door was slightly ajar. Something was definitely wrong.Pushing the door open, my heart dropped. The bed was empty. The chains that bound Gilly were now off and lying on the floor.“What the…” I whispered, barely looking around me frowning in confusion.A low grunt coming from the corner of the room made me turn my head. I gasped. Draven was sitting with his legs tied to the wall, his hands were also tied with pieces of his clothings. His mouth was gagged and I could see the anger and desperation in his eyes.“Draven!” I rushed to him, yanking the cloth from his mouth.“Serena,” he rasped. “You ne
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 157 A FATHER’s LEGACY
Roman’s POVThe night air was cold as I stepped through the trees, holding Gilly captive. My steps were silent, careful as always, but my mind ran through memories that never left me. I couldn’t stop them, even now—especially now.I had always been an observer, even as a boy. I watched my parents, two forces of nature who couldn’t have been more different yet were somehow drawn together like moths to a flame. My father was a man with no sense of mercy. His ambitions were as grand as they were brutal. “Take what you want. Rule without apology.” Those were his words to me as soon as I was old enough to stand in his shadow.My mother… she was different. Controlled, cunning, with a mind so sharp it could cut you before you realised you were bleeding. A witch with power most would have called godlike, but to me, she was something more—something complicated. She loved me, and in her way, she was always there. She was like the constant in a chaotic world. But she wanted loyalty to her coven.
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 156 THE BREAK POINT
There were sounds of jingling chains coming from the medical wing as I approached it. I had managed to talk Ardan out of keeping Gilly chained up in the dungeon. Gilly sat slumped on the small cot with her wrists bound tightly chains. When her eyes went up to meet mine, the despair in them almost shattered me.“Serena…” she whispered.I moved toward the door slowly, swallowing my saliva. “Gilly, you’re awake.”She gave out a humourless chuckle, and wiped her tears with the back of her hand that was free. “Awake? I wish I wasn’t.” She looked at her swollen pupils in the mirror and also looked at her hands as they continued to shake as though they were still stained with blood. “I killed him, didn’t I?”I dropped to my knees beside the bed and grasped her hand through the iron bracelets. “No, Gilly. It wasn’t you. Gloria did this. She’s manipulating you, using you. This isn’t your fault.”She jerked at my words, shaking her head vehemently. “Serena, you don’t understand. As long as I’m
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 155 BLOOD AND SHADOWS
The sound of Zone’s boots echoed down the hallway as he stormed into the war room. I could see anger in his eyes. Ardan, Rachel, and I were huddled over maps and scouting reports, discussing strategies to secure the territory.“We have a problem,” Zone said as he tossed a worn scrap of fabric onto the table.I picked it up, frowning. The material was torn and dirty, reeking faintly of magic and rogue wolves.“What is this?” Ardan asked coldly as he straightened his back to face Zone.“I found it near the south border,” Zone replied, crossing his arms. “Tracks leading in and out of the pack’s territory. Someone’s sneaking around.”Rachel furrowed her brow as she leaned closer, inspecting the fabric. “It’s rogue,” she muttered, then paused. “But there’s something else here. A faint magical trace.”Ardan’s eyes turned to me. “Roman.”I sighed heavily, already knowing where this was going. “You can’t keep blaming Roman for every problem we have, Ardan. It’s starting to feel personal. I me
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 154 A BATTLE OF TRUST
Ardan stood at one end of the war table with crossed arms and a dark face with suspicion written all over it. Zone paced near the fireplace, pacing up and down, clearly frustrated. Across from me, Roman leaned casually against the wall, with his usual composed expression giving away nothing, but I could see it—Ardan and Zone’s distrust was starting to chip away at his calm exterior.“Something’s not right,” Zone muttered for the third time, shooting Roman another glare. “We’re chasing leads, scrambling to keep Gilly safe, and every time something goes wrong, he’s around.”Roman let out a quiet sigh and rolled his eyes as he pushed himself off the wall. “You know, Zone, if you’re going to keep accusing me, you might as well bring some proof. I’ve done nothing but help you all since I arrived.”“You mean since you conveniently appeared,” Zone shot back. “No one knows where you came from. You don’t belong here.”“Enough!” I snapped, standing up from my seat and placing my hands on the ta
