Mate? Or Die! Chapter 37 I AM WILLING TO STAND BY HER
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
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 38 KILL MYSELF
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
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 39 SHE IS IMPORTANT
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
Mate? 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
Mate? 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
Mate? 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
Mate? 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 44 YOUR BROTHER IS MY MATE
Serena's POVAn evening that was supposed to be for a secret visit, turned out to be a passionate night. My heart was filled with warmth and I could see it in the way Arden looked at me too. His hunger was surely satisfied.I left the hospital room feeling fly and happy. My cheeks flushed red, my heart swelling with joy, and my stomach rumbling with satisfaction.This was the first time we both wanted to have each other and he asked politely.Although he had asked me to stay back because he needed me to satisfy his desire, I wanted him too, but he did not force me or say hurtful dirty things to me like before.This made me happy and comforted.As I walked down the narrow pathway and I was thinking about how to sneak back into the villa, I met Alpha Zone on my. It seemed strange that he was outside at that time of the night.I was stunned by the sight of him at that hour. At least I had a reason to sneak out of the villa. What could be his own reason?His face was still glowing even in

Mate? Or Die! Chapter 114 THE AMBUSH
The camp had been unusually quiet that morning, but my thoughts were anything but still. Gilly was stronger now—more alert, more alive than she’d been since her rescue—but I couldn’t help noticing how Dominic avoided looking at her. His usual smirk was absent, and he kept his eyes away from from hers.Gilly seemed to notice, too. She stood a little apart from us, leaning against a tree with her arms crossed and her eyes fixed on Dominic as if she were trying to solve a puzzle.“Gilly,” I said softly, walking over to her. “How are you feeling?”“Better,” she said. “A lot better, actually.” She hesitated as her gaze flickered toward Dominic. “But something’s off with him. He keeps avoiding me.”I followed her eyes, watching Dominic as he checked his weapons with meticulous precision. “That’s just how he is,” I said, though I couldn’t deny the unease creeping into my chest.“Serena,” Gilly said quietly with her voice almost a whisper. “He feels… familiar. I don’t know how to explain it,
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 113 CONSEQUENCES
The next morning, Zone and Dominic’s bickering had started again before we even broke camp.“You’re leading us into another trap, aren’t you?” Zone growled with his arms crossed as he faced Dominic, who leaned lazily against a tree.Dominic smirked, completely unbothered. “You’ve got trust issues, big guy. Relax. If I wanted to betray you, I’d have done it already.”“You’d say that whether you planned to or not,” Zone shot back with a sharp tone.“Enough,” I snapped, stepping between them. My patience was wearing thin, and I couldn’t afford to let their constant tension derail us. “This isn’t helping. We’re all here for the same reason—to find Ardan. Keep that in mind, or we’re not going to make it.”“No, you, are here to find Ardan. I’m done. I am telling you, Dominic is leading us into some trap I cant trust him.” Zone cried.“I saved you, I saved Gilly and I saved Rachel. I didn’t ask you to come with me. This is my fight and my fight alone. Do you think I trust Dominic?” I asked s
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 112 ANOTHER WITCH
The sun was up as we made our way to the canyon. Dominic led the way. Zone followed close behind with his hand resting on his sword. Rachel and Gilly were at my side. Gilly was leaning on Rachel for support as she regained her strength.The air felt heavier here, every sound was amplified and echoing off the rock.“Something’s not right,” Sally murmured in my mind.“I feel it too,” I replied with my senses sharpening as I scanned the cliffs above. The silence was unnerving.“We should move faster,” Zone said in a low but urgent tone.“Relax,” Dominic called over his shoulder, his tone infuriatingly casual. “This path is clear. I’ve used it dozens of times.”Zone’s growl was barely audible. “And how do we know you’re not leading us into a trap?”Dominic turned, walking backward with a grin. “Like I said, If I wanted you dead, you’d already be dead. Trust me, big guy.”I clenched my fists. “Keep moving. We’re too exposed here.”Dominic smirked but complied, turning forward again.Then a
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 111 FRACTURED BONDS
The walk back to camp was filled with tension. Dominic’s easy smirk didn’t help; if anything, it made Zone’s temper simmer hotter. I could feel the heat of Zone’s eyes boring into Dominic’s back, but I kept my focus on the path ahead. We didn’t have time for petty arguments—not when Ardan was still out there.When we arrived, Rachel was sitting beside Gilly with her hands glowing faintly as she worked to stabilise our friend’s breathing. Gilly lay on a makeshift bed of leaves. Her face was pale but peaceful. Rachel glanced up as we approached. Her brows furrowed when she spotted Dominic.“Who’s this?” Rachel asked in a wary tone.Dominic gave her a lazy wave. “Dominic. Smuggler, information broker, occasional charmer. At your service.”Zone growled. “We don’t need your act. Just tell them why you’re here.”I stepped forward, cutting through the tension. “This is Dominic. He knows the rogue king’s network and might have information about Ardan’s whereabouts.”“Might,” Dominic echoed, l
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 110 A DEAL WITH DOMINIC
Dominic’s smirk widened as he crossed his arms, leaning casually against one of the tent poles. He was tall, lean, and radiated this air of arrogance that set my teeth on edge. His sharp green eyes darted between Zone and me, sizing us up like the way predators size their prey.“Ardan,” I said firmly, cutting straight to the point. “You know where he is.”Dominic raised an eyebrow, feigning surprise. “Oh, do I now? And what makes you think I’d share that information with you?”Zone stiffened beside me with his hand twitching toward his blade, but I placed a calming hand on his arm. This was my fight.“Because we both know you don’t work for free,” I replied. “You don’t owe the rogue king loyalty, and I can pay you better than he ever could.”Dominic chuckled, pushing off the post and circling me slowly. “Interesting theory. But what makes you think your cause is worth my time? I mean, look at you—tired, desperate, and woefully out of your depth. You’re chasing a ghost, sweetheart.”I
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 109 BORDERLAND
The forest had become our home and our prison. Days turned into nights without relief. The rogue king’s forces were everywhere, and we were forced to move like ghosts, never lingering in one place for long.Gilly’s condition had improved, but she still wasn’t strong enough to travel far, and Rachel rarely left her side. That left Zone and me to scout ahead, searching for any sign of Ardan or the rogue king’s plans.The frustration was beginning to pile up, and my wolf, Sally, understood my restlessness. “We’re wasting time,” she growled in my mind as we crept through an underbrush. “He’s out there, and we’re stuck chasing the wrong thing.”“You think I don’t know that?” I shot back. “I just don’t know how to prove it.” I continued. He was alive—I was sure of it—but every moment we spent running felt like another moment he slipped further from my reach.Zone crouched beside me with his sharp eyes scanning the road ahead. “Trail’s fresh,” he murmured, pointing to a set of boot prints in
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 108 RACHEL
We had finally gotten out of the dungeon and I helped Zone and Gilly to the hidden passage I’d used to enter. Every sound echoed in my ears—the clink of Zone’s chains that we had now gotten rid of, Gilly’s shallow, pained breaths, and my dragged footsteps against the stone floor. I was angry and confused. What I’d seen… it wasn’t possible. It couldn’t be.“That wasn’t Ardan,” I reminded myself, swallowing down the lump in my throat. My wolf, Sally, had already made it clear: this Ardan was an imposter, the rogue king in disguise. But knowing didn’t lessen the pain of seeing my mate’s face twisted into something cruel and unrecognisable.“Serena,” Zone growled behind me in a low tone but he was very much angry. “Are you going to explain now, or do I have to figure this out on my own?”I paused, staring back at him. He was cradling Gilly in his arms. She looked so small and so broken. The sight of her nearly brought me to my knees.“That wasn’t Ardan like I said,” I said softly and with
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 107 CAUGHT
The night was cold as we quietly and carefully passed through the palace corridors. Gilly, though still unconscious, rested securely in Zone’s arms. Rachel and I moved ahead, scanning for threats while Zone followed close behind.The memory of what I had seen in the dungeon was burned into my mind. I couldn’t shake the image of the imposter Ardan. Yes, my mind has been on it and will continue to be on it until I am able to find my mate. The rogue king had not only stolen my mate’s appearance but had turned the palace—our home—into a place of fear and lies.Meanwhile, the silence between I and Zone was heavy and it was broken only by the faint sound of our footsteps. I knew how Zone felt about his unanswered questions and his simmering anger he was trying to keep at bay. I understood his rage; I felt it too. But now wasn’t the time to lose control.We reached the palace’s outer gardens without any incident. The moon shone bright, making it harder to stay hidden. I motioned for the othe
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 106 THE IMPOSTER
If the guards’ rumours were true, Zone was in chains for “colliding with a witch,” and I could only imagine what they’d done to Gilly, who was already vulnerable. If there was even a chance they were in the dungeons, I had to find them.“We’ll get them out, Serena,” my wolf promised. Her confidence became mine.Soon, I sighted the thick door to the dungeon, guarded by a lone guard. I timed my movement. I waited for him to shift his attention momentarily and then I moved past him swiftly. His flickering torchlight casted only a slight glimpse of me.I hadn’t been in these dungeons in ages. I remembered how prisoners were brought here under Ardan’s orders, criminals as well who had chosen the wrong side. But this was different. Ardan had always been just. To think of Zone and Gilly down here, locked in these cells, made my blood boil.As I went down the stairs, a tortured howl echoed off the stone walls. The sound was unmistakable. It was Zone. I picked up my pace, sprinting down the na
