Mate? Or Die! Chapter 71 WILL YOU WAIT FOR ME?
Serena's POVHe pulled me up until I was on my feet again. I could feel my heart hammering loudly in my chest and I won't be surprised if he can hear it too. My breathing was fast and uneven. I couldn't tell if it was because I almost fell or the fact that he caught me.He stared at me for a while with shock in his eyes, I'm assuming he too was scared about the fact that I almost fell. His eyes moved from shock to softest."Are you okay?" He asked softly.I tried to open my mouth to speak but my voice seemed to be lost for the moment. I was still in shock and everything happened in an instance. I am still trying to process that that just happened.During this time, he refused to let me go. His eyes were soft then they stared into mine showing nothing but care and concern for my well-being.Now I wonder, how was he able to move that fast to catch me. I knew Arden was fast but I didn't think it would be that fast."Serena, are you okay?" He asked again. I realized I was quiet the entire

Serena's POV"Arden." At the mention of Arden's name, we both separated like our touch was lethal to the other.We both turned to find Thorne starting here. I didn't realize when he walked in apparently neither of us did."You asked to see me." Thorne said trying to make the situation less awkward but that could be impossible now.My face was red in embarrassment and Arden seemed a little thrown off balance. Even Thorne could sense how uncomfortable the situation was.He rubbed his nose awkwardly. "It seems you're busy. I'll come back later." He turned to leave but I stopped him. I would rather leave than stay here to continue the awkward moment."You don't have to. I was just about to leave." I said nervously. I shuffled around nervously because I gained my steps back."Wait." Arden's voice called out.I really wish I didn't ask for permission to see Gilly. I would be in my room resting then maybe I would take a walk around the palace. I would have been anywhere but in this situation
Last Updated : 2024-08-13Mate? Or Die! Chapter 73 EARNING TRUST
Serena's POVWe both stayed quiet a while because neither of us wanted to revisit that topic we dropped, most especially me. As much as I had so much hope for the fact that Arden cares, I can keep myself in the dark and pretend he hasn't hurt me before. That might be a reason why I might never trust their vague words. Unless he comes out to tell me what his intentions are, I will not hold out hope foolishly.I glanced at him and he seemed uneasy. I understand though. He is trying to put in a good word for his good friend but it isn't working. He might think he failed to get me to believe what Arden says and I feel bad for him for being disappointed but I'm choosing to be selfish for once.I didn't like how quiet we both are so I decided to bring up a topic that will lighten the mood because I don't like how long this silence has lasted."Rachel seems so fond of you. She kept talking about your date with her last night. Seems like she's very fond of you" I said.He looked at me and the
Last Updated : 2024-08-13Mate? Or Die! Chapter 74 TRUTH IDENTITY AND PURPOSE
Serena's POVI could feel my palms becoming clammy as beads of sweat gather on top of my eye brows. I know I wanted to know the truth but now I'm reconsidering it."Serena, there's nothing to be afraid of." Gilly said to me. "And it's okay, if you don't want to know."I swallow the lump in my throat. "No, I do. I'm just a little bit nervous." I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. I opened them and I felt a little less nervous. "I need to know more about myself and why I am seemingly very important to the King."She dropped her cup and leaned in. "The Wolf Mother was legendary because her birth symbolized the great unification of all the werewolves and their Wolf pack making into one great pack. Up until now, she is still the most powerful werewolf to be born. Over the years, her powers tend to descend into other wolves but they could never be truly as powerful as she was."She had various abilities and one of them was the power of control. Her words could influence all werewolves b
Last Updated : 2024-08-13Mate? Or Die! Chapter 75 TRUE ENEMY
Serena's POVI was completely confused, and I had nothing to say. What was there to say, I am completely lost. This is ridiculously. This is so messed up. I can't believe this is the secret war we need to fight, and I thought Derek was the main enemy. The witches had planned this through and through. If anything happens, they will attack.Also, Arden was cursed, and I'm his second mate. This is too much information to get at once. If his previous mate was killed in advance, then who am I? Am I his mate truly? Or am I just a means of delay? Is this why Arden never truly loved me?"Serena, you look deadly pale, and I'm worried. You want anything to eat or drink. I didn't know a werewolf could be this pale." Gilly said in panic."I'm okay. Really, I am." I said, but I didn't sound convincing at all."No. I can't risk Arden finding out that you came to see me and that you became this pale. He might think I tried to kill you." She said in a whisper."Gilly, I can assure you that I am fine.
Last Updated : 2024-08-13Mate? Or Die! Chapter 76 SECRETS AND INSECURITIES
Serena's POVGilly could not look me in the eye. I don't understand why though, because she said she knew nothing about the witches' plans and how to break the curse. I trust that she is telling the truth. Honestly, I am so surprised at why I trust her this much.She looked at me nervously, like she had another bombshell to drop. It's like she was trying to find a way to put it so it doesn't shake me to my core, but I believe I won't be surprised if the next thing she says. I didn't pressurise her to speak, but I decided that if she were ready, she would tell me."The reason why I don't know if Arden's curse can be broken is because…" she paused, and I kept looking at her, urging her to continue. She looked unsure, and her voice came out lowly and fearful. "I'm a werewolf."I stared at her in shock. She's a werewolf? But Rachel and Alpha Zone said she was a witch. She even referred to herself as a witch. How is she now a werewolf?"Here me out. I was taken by the witches when I was li
Last Updated : 2024-08-13Mate? Or Die! Chapter 77 ONE FOR ANOTHER
Serena's POVI looked at Gilly Ponder for a while after she said she didn't believe me. It seemed like she must have also thought about the points I gave. It's miserable how tense things are because if she could go out, all she needs is one day with Alpha Zone, and she would change her mind about all of the doubts she has."So, he is a nice guy?" She asked again."He is just a little grumpy sometimes," I said, and she smiled. "I can already tell that you two will be good together, and you will be together forever.""I hope so." She said, and she meant it.Unlike earlier, she looked happy and excited, with a glint of hope in her eyes. I'm thrilled to see she isn't being sceptical about Alpha Zone, and I hope he does treat her nicely, too."Gilly, I need to leave now," I said to her,She looked downcast for a moment, and that broke my heart. She needs someone always to come and visit her. I know Alpha Zone is busy these days, and I was just lucky, but it isn't right that she's always le
Last Updated : 2024-08-13Mate? Or Die! Chapter 78 NEWLY FORMED FRIENDSHIPS
Author's POVAfter hours of Serena visiting her, Gilly had felt very anxious about whether she would keep her word, and she had enough reasons not to keep her word. Witches raised her, and she might be an imposter. Gilly half expected Serena to never let her out of this chamber, but she also hoped that Serena might treat her differently from the others.Then, the door opened. She stood up abruptly to see who it was, for it wasn't time for her to have her next meal. There were two guards. They looked at her with disgust."The King asked to release you from this chamber, and you will move to a room closer to the royal family." He said stiffly."Really?" She asked in excitement. She felt tears fill her eyes because Serena kept her word."Get your things and follow us." The other said.She went to pack her bags and took a few room decor for my new room. She hoped it was better than this one and had the freedom to decorate it however she wanted, but it might be problematic because of the a

Mate? Or Die! Chapter 217 THE BATTLE BEGINS
Serena PoVI walked into the medical wing and the scent of medicine hit my nose. Rachel stayed silently at her workstation blending medicinal salves while Marcus sat alone on his cot, looking determined though he didn't feel well. Luca kept his head down while sitting on a chair, picking at the edges of his shirt.Marcus looked at me right away while holding his injuries despite the pain. He spoke to me quietly, saying, "Serena," while struggling to speak clearly.I moved my chair close to his hospital bed and gave him a warm look. “Marcus,” I said softly. “Tell me everything.”Despite what had happened, Marcus spoke to me calmly about it. He told me how he entered Caden's camp with Luca, tried talking to Evelyn, and how Caden clawed at him.Marcus told me how Evelyn pleaded with our enemy to free them. “She struggled her whole way through to keep me safe.” He said, talking about Evelyn.Instantly, Luca ag
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 216 A DESPERATE PLEA
Evelyn PoVMy past choices pressed heavily on me during my walk through the camp. Every move I made was accompanied by the memories of my victims and the people I harmed. Gloria's comments sounded louder than ever in my thoughts with her gentle and convincing tone. She assured me that I possessed the potential to achieve great things.Her pledges started to break down under pressure.As I gazed at the night sky Gloria softly noted "Your power comes from our bond. Without me, you’re nothing. Remember that, Evelyn.”Her words initially, would have provided me comfort and guidance toward my goals. But now it felt like I was in a prison since she held me in her grip and kept me from making free decisions. Gloria took advantage of me just like Caden did.I clenched my fists. Did the pursuit of power need to destroy lives this way?“You didn’t need to scare my mother away. I think I’m getting the hang of it now. My mo
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 215 A TEMPORARY ALLIANCE
Serena PoVThe room was filled with tension. On the table, the map was spread with Ardan and Alpha Joachim facing each other while arguing about their next military move. I rested my back against the wall with my arms folded while my head itched from the mounting stress.“I think we should make our first move from this area.” Ardan proposed, circling an area on the map. “Striking this location will split the the red blood moon pack’s military divisions.”Joachim shook his head. “Ardan you fixate solely on using power in your approach. Caden's wolves learn to handle strife during physical confrontations. Our strike must be slow and deliberate to reach Evelyn since moving too quickly would cost us many wolf lives.”Evelyn. I remembered how our last conversation went. My love for her hurt deeply but I couldn't find a way to be with her. Gloria took complete control of Evelyn's mind and every time I thought about her
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 214 THE POINT
Evelyn PoVI stood in Caden’s war room with tension thick in the air and my hands shaking at my sides. Territory maps of various packs, slashed through in red to show how many we’d been able to bring under our control, were spread across the table. At the head of the table, my father, Caden gripped the map with his shining bionic arm as he laid out our next move.“After we claim the Eastern moon pack,” Caden said coldly, “we will have power over all major territory in a hundred-mile radius. The rest will be compelled to fall in line.”I couldn’t take my eyes off him; I was disgusted. “And if they don’t?” I asked, though I knew the answer.Caden turned to me, narrowing his eyes. “Then we crush them. No one defies us, Evelyn. This is what it takes to unite the wolves and ensure peace.”“Peace,” I repeated bitterly. “Is this what peace feels l
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 213 A VOW TO BRING ME BACK
Evelyn’s PoVI was standing at the forefront of Caden’s soldiers, with my father staring me down from across the battlefield. His words from earlier rang in my ears: “This is not just another battle, Evelyn. It’s about sending a message. We have to make them understand that whoever dares to side with Ardan cannot withstand us.”I realised that it was not merely a matter of asserting one’s authority - it was much more personal. And now, I was leading the charge.I was afraid. My hands shook slightly and I had to hide it. Gloria’s whispers had decided to take a break but I know I was doing this on my own accord. Her whispers or not, Gloria was forever present.“Ready, Evelyn?” Caden asked in a commanding tone.I simply bowed my head, swallowing the disgust that rose from deep within my heart. “I’m ready.”The attack started off as being vicious and unrelenting. Wolves foug
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 212 THE FIRST ATTACK
Evelyn’s PoVThe night was dark, and the atmosphere was rather oppressive, as if everyone was expecting a fight. I was by my father side, Caden, at the forest and across from us was the rogue pack which we were enemies with. We had encroached their territory and we wanted war. I felt my pulse quicken, but it was not due to any kind of apprehension. It was something else—a feeling of anxiety intertwined with adrenaline and Gloria’s spirit was all I needed to charge up.“Are you ready?” Caden asked.I could not escape the doubt I felt but I attempted to mask with a nod. Was I truly ready? Is this the road I am to travel?“This isn’t just about war. It’s about making sure our pack is going to be safe from threats that may exist in the future. If left unaddressed, ‘they’ will be a constant thorn in the side of everything we are trying to construct here.”I forced myself to believe him, a
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 211 A VISION OF DESTRUCTION
Serena PoVI had learned about the changes that took place in Evelyn and the revelation was eye-opening for me. My daughter—the one I had wanted to shield from the reality of the world—was now a part of an immeasurable force. But it was not only power, it was power stained with blood. Caden had manhandled her and had exploited her strength for his own gain. Worse still, the spirit of Gloria had successfully taken over Evelyn and is determined to finish her off as well.I sat in my room, with the curtains drawn and my mind tormented by guilt and sorrow. How had it come to this? Evelyn was meant to be protected, enveloped in affection, but what I had offered her was anything but that. Now she was beyond my reach, entangled with Caden and manipulated by Gloria.I tried to reach her. With my eyes shut tight, I focused on our connection and communicated with her via my wolf mother link.“Evelyn,” I said through our telepathic connection. “It’s me, your mother. Please, talk to me.”At that
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 210 POWER AWAKENS
Evelyn’s PoVThe change that happened in me was not sudden like a snap of the fingers; it was a slow process like the encroachment of night over day. At first, it was subtle: was always accompanied by a keener sense of presence, a liveliness that surged through me, making me feel as though I were unstoppable. But as days turned into weeks, I began to know other things.Although, when I concentrated, I realised that I could control the wind. I could also feel with my mind the thoughts and intentions of people around as if they were exposed to me like an open diary… something akin to what my mother can do. It was rather daunting, but at the same time, it was liberating.I first felt this transformation while going through an attack with pure wolves like my mother and me. We were caught off guard while patrolling the outskirts of the territory. Caden had taken me along with a group of his pack to check on my commitment and ability to survive in his pack, which was a pack of killers.Our
Mate? Or Die! Chapter 209 A NEW HOME
Evelyn’s PoVIt wasn’t long before Caden came to pick me up. His rogue wolves stood next to him, their faces cold and emotionless. My mother, Serena, stood firm in front of me, her aura protected me and prevented the wolves from coming any closer to me.“I will personally cut your genitals off if you dare to lay a finger on her,” she snarled.Caden smirked, unfazed. “Relax, Serena. She’s my daughter. I am taking her to her rightful place.”“She is my daughter too,” Serena replied heatedly her eyes burning with anger. “And I’m warning you, Caden. Evelyn is more than what meets the eye.” Then she lowered her tone. “Evelyn is in contact with Gloria. Someone like you can use that to your advantage but not when my daughter’s life is at stake.”Caden’s expression turned from one of annoyance to a cool one. “You worry too much, Serena. I’ll handle it.”“Caden, this isn’t some joke!” My mom yelled.I placed a hand on her arm. “Mom, it’s okay. I’ll be fine. I promise.”She relaxed her eyes. “P
