Mate by Fate, Bound by Love shattered bonds and hidden threats
**************************Ethan's POV "Please Your Highness, forgive my daughter, please you can't let them banish her forever, she's my only child" I was lost in thoughts; I was brought back to reality by Lauren's father's plea. Her mom was by my leg dragging my coat on her ķnees asking that I forgive their daughter.Honestly, I didn't care anymore about what happened to her; whether she was banished or not, I didn't give a fuck about it.Whether she's asked to stay in þhe Town, I didn't care, even if I was asked to still stay married to her, I wouldn't even try to oppose it. I just knew that there was nothing in this world that could make me see her as a wife anymore.Wife!!! That's even too much, nothing could make me see her as a woman anymore. I looked at them with disgusted eyes, as they were also part of the reason why I ended up marrying Lauren. FLASHBACK I was looking out the window from the down floor of the Palace when Lauren's parent came in with ĺauren to meet my fa

****************************Ethan’s POVThe words stabbed at me like a knife to the chest. As much as I hated to hear them, as much as they pained me, it was just the plain truth. The truth, they say, is always bitter.I felt an aching in my chest. Yes, I really did abandon her. I broke the mate bond, even knowing how much it would hurt after being severed. And still, I did it. Why? Love? No. That wasn’t love. It must have been infatuation, lust, or deceit. Whatever it was, I couldn’t call it love. Love isn’t deceptive."Do you know how to find her?" I asked."My lord, we do not know where she is. Please, my lord, I came for my daughter," Lauren's mother pleaded.I acted as though I hadn’t heard her. I was furious—at them, at myself. I regretted breaking the mate bond. Even if I could bring Lauren back to this palace, I wouldn’t. I couldn’t stand the thought of looking into the face of someone who had slept with my Beta. Not just my Beta—my friend. I didn’t even know what they did to

*****************************Ethan's POV**I paced impatiently across the palace halls, anxiety gnawing at me as I waited for my Beta to return with news. Deep down, I desperately hoped for good news. Something that could lift the heavy cloud hanging over my head, something to reignite the flicker of hope I clung to. Regret weighed on me heavily, my past decisions haunting me nI muttered under my breath, "How foolish I was."I couldn't help but question whether I should have gone along with my Beta, or perhaps done the investigation myself. The waiting was unbearable. Frustration bubbled up inside me. To calm my nerves, I decided to check on my sister, Sophia. I found her sitting up in bed, stretching gingerly. She looked a little better, but I knew full well that for her to truly heal, I had to find Lena. Only she could help my sister. I just prayed she wouldn’t let the past dictate her decision. Would she even consider helping after everything I had done?Yes, I know what you’re

**************************Adrian's POVI found it hard to believe everything Claire had said. I knew she could go to extreme lengths to get what she wanted, but the thought that she might have inflicted all those injuries on herself just to prove a point seemed far-fetched. Yes, she's desperate, but I don’t think she’s psychotic enough to nearly kill herself just to make me believe her. Yet, I couldn't entirely dismiss the possibility that she might be telling the truth.Where could Lena be? Deep down, I hoped Claire was lying. I hoped Lena hadn’t been dragged into this mess. I loved her, and I still believed we could have built a family together.What no one knows is that I’ve been holding Lena in a cell, waiting to gather evidence—evidence to prove whether she was actually a spy or if she really did steal Claire’s jewelry. But Ian went ahead and complicated things for me. You might wonder how Ian, with all his abilities, doesn't know what I’m thinking. Over the years, I’ve learned

***************************Lena's POV"We've been caught!" I exclaimed."I am not blind, Lena. I can see that we have been caught," she replied."So what do we do?" I asked."What do you think we should do?" She asked me back."Maybe jump?" I suggested."Are you willing to take the risk of dying?" She asked."Oh no, I was just being silly," I answered."So what do we do?" She asked again."Allow them to catch us, like you said. Adrian might not want to kill us, although his alter ego clearly wants to. But since he was able to control it back there in the holding cell, I am sure he's going to control it again.""Yes, he clearly needs the child to be alive.""Come with us now!" one of the guards' voices interrupted my discussion with Lyla."Hey, could you give me a minute to settle something first?" I said.The guard looked at me like I was deranged or something. He was about to come closer when I threatened that if he came any closer, I would just drop down from this cliff."We both k

*************************Lena's POVI couldn't believe Claire could go this far just to make sure Adrian hated me so much."Lyla, what have I ever done to anyone in this world to be treated like this? How did I get this way?" I cried."Most people don't have a reason to be wicked to anyone. They just behave wickedly because that's who they are - they're evil," Lyla replied."Claire is the most evil person I've ever seen in my life. She must have come from the devil himself," I said bitterly."That's not our problem now," Lyla chuckled."We're here in the holding cell, the best place we can be right now. Let's brainstorm on how I took control of your body for a while," Lyla said."Yes, that's true. We don't have much time anymore. I'm sure when Claire comes back and sees I'm still here, she'll hasten up her findings of the black witch just so she can destroy me faster. And we can't let that happen.""No, we can't. So tell me, what was on your mind that night?" Lyla asked.I began to s

************************Claire's POV"That omega slut......, how dare she" I was very angry about the way she twisted my hands.I know you might be imagining how I knew she was back. I was at my father's house when one of my maids ran in to give me the informationAfter hearing the news, I was so pissed off, the last part of the message infuriated me the most...no injury? No scars?. I hoped she was gonna die.Now, I had to find other ways to make sure she was removed from my way. I was pacing all around my dad's house thinking of the next step to take, but I was finding it hard to think of a quick and faster way to get rid of Lena.Dad was just watching as I was pacing around. I could see that he was worried about me, but right now, I couldn't care about his worry; I had my worries to care about.Finding a black witch won't be so easy; it's going to take a while, but I knew it would have been better.But I needed to find a faster way to get rid of her; Adrian seemed to be getting sof

***********************Claire's POVI continued, faster this time around, he was finding it hard to stand straight, I gently guarded his steps so he could rest his back against the wall, while I still had his meat fully in my mouth I tore his shirt open leaving his bare chest.I kept on doing this continuously, going between increasing speed and reducing speed. I could tell he was enjoying it because of the way he had his hands on my head and how he was gently parting and caressing my hair.I stood up after a long while of servicing his meat and began to kiss him slowly from his waist up to his chest then I started to devour his nipples. He was gasping for hair and moaning in ecstasy; I knew that there was no way I would finish this, and he wouldn't give me what I wanted. I played and fumbled with his nipples so well. His nipples were round and pointed so it made it easier for me to hold on to with my lips."Claire"He was whispering my name; I smiled lightly because I knew I had w

Mate by Fate, Bound by Love light in the darkness
**************************Lena's POV I opened my eyes to see Ethan lying lifeless beside me, almost dead. He was standing in between me and Zane as if he was trying to wait till I had woken up so I could continue from where he stopped. I looked at the place where Adrian was. He still lay down lifeless and almost dead. "Ethan, what are you doing facing Zane" but he couldn't hear me. The next thing I saw was an almost lifeless body lying in front, eyes wide open and staring at me. I felt a rage inside. I looked at both men, and the rage to protect those I loved just sparked in me.All of a sudden, light began to shine out from every part of my body. I was still wrapped by the tendrils, but as my light began to shine from my body, little by little, I started to feel the grip of the tendrils loosen up little by little until It loosened up completely."Oh I see you are finally awake, your boyfriend tried to delay me so you could wake up I will give him a plus for that but one thing I kn
Mate by Fate, Bound by Love The descent into darkness
**************************Lena's POV I was very angry about the whole thing, angry about how Ethan tried to convince me to go with him and leave Adrian. I couldn't believe he asked me to do something like that. Running through the tunnels, fueled by anger and desperation, I made up my mind to destroy Zane and make sure I saved Adrian. Ethan continued to beg me and try to change my mind, but I waivedamantm a. NT I listen to. All I could think of was saving Adrian no matter what. I wasn't going to do this; I was going to allow myself to be deceived by his selfishness. 'I don't care what Ethan says but I won't abandon Adrian and I will make sure I make Zane pay for what he has done' I said to myself I continued to move deeper into tunnels, meetings, and staircases. Everywhere I passed through, I came across Zane's minion. These dar,k evil creatures blocked my pain, and I showed them no mercy. I used every bit of anger I felt inside of me, channelling my growing rage into my attacks.
Mate by Fate, Bound by Love The ultimate sacrifice
*********************Ethan's POV The sight of what I saw dreaded Me I could see the life being sniffed out from Lyla I controlled the urge to run into the middle of everything and just try to save her but I needed a plan I wouldn't want to go there and then I ended up being caught in the Web of what was going on without being able to save Lena. I tried to see if I could get signs of her alive, and I decided to use my hearing to check for a heartbeat. I was glad when I heard her heartbeat. Though it was slow, I was glad it was still beating. Leba was unconscious, with dark magic swirling around her as Zane kept on draining the power and life inside of her. Adrian was barely unconscious, chained and weakened. My heart pounded as I accessed the situation. I knew the time was running out, and I must act quickly to save both lena and Adrian. 'There's no way to win this fight outright. I need to overhang him,' I said to myself. I began to analyse and observe Zane's movement and powers.
Mate by Fate, Bound by Love Awakening fury
*********************Adrian's POVI woke up to see a bunch of rocks lying on my body; I awakened my alpha strength and then used it to push off the rocks that had fallen on me. I was angry at myself for what I had done. The last thing I remember was Lena lashing out at me, sending me flying. The thoughts of that scenario just made me more angry at myself it made me feel so stupid. I didn't know how long that was.'She couldn't have gone far' I said to myself I moved the last rock on my leg and started moving forward. As I moved further, I began to see packs of Zane's minions dead on the floor. I checked for their pulses, and it seemed like they had been dead for a while. I was shocked; I wondered, how long they had died for. I left them and moved forward down the tunnel. Nel, I met more and more minions that appeared to be dead along the line bu, but I didn't see a sign of Lena. I decided to follow the trail of dead bodies and continued going further and further until I came close
Mate by Fate, Bound by Love Threading on thin ice
*********************ETHAN'S POV we had come so far, but we finally got to where Lebs felt Adrian was, but we didn't find him there. Zane outsmarted us. He had beaten us to it. In a way, he was able to see through Lena's scanning to find Adrian too, and now Lena wants to go save Adrian.I wasn't going to allow them to face Zane unprepared; she had not learned enough to be able to defeat Zane. It was a dangerous thing. I was not also going to slow the risk of her life because of Adrian. She means more to me than the life of Adrian.Yes, call me selfish if you want, but I don't mind being selfish when it comes to the matters of Lena. Besides, I already listed her once; I wasn't going to lose her again to Zane, and this felt like a good way to eliminate my competition. I know that deep down in that innocent heart of yours, you are judging me, saying I am wicked, and seriously... I don't mind at all. You can think whatever you want to. All I was trying to do was just to make sure I did
Mate by Fate, Bound by Love Into the heart of darkness
***********************Lena's POV I signalled to him to hurry so we coukd go find Adrian. He ran fast enough but what he did I wasn't expecting it he kissed me. It was a very brief one but I wondered how he was still able to think about doing something like that in this present situation we were in. A situation of life abd death, I actually liked the way he did it, it brought a quick smile on my face but It was immediately changed to an angry face when zabe spoke out again. "Fool you think you would win because you have this little trick" he said "I will come for you when I am done saving Adrian" I said angrily I forgot again that he was talking to me telepathically and ethsn wouldn't hear what we were saying but I ended up saying my reply our angrily. "No you are not facing him today you are not ready to do that lena" ye said worriedly.I ignored him, I kept walking down to the place where I saw Adrian while scanning through the tunnels. On reaching there I couldn't find him a
Mate by Fate, Bound by Love shadows of the fortress [2]
*********************Lena's POV As we navigated our way through the forest, trying to locate where I had seen Adrian while I was scanning the maze with my powers, the fortress became serious and dead quiet. It was a dangerous sign that we were entering a heavily guarded area, but I was slightly confused. I didn't see this place where I was scanning. Getting closer, I got to understand that it was because the dark magic covering this particular area was a very thick and strong one that my light couldn't penetrate through, probably because I didn't tap into the right amount of light magic. I just felt like I didn't need much of it to scan through it's why I didn't tap into much light. But I then understood that I was supposed to tap into as much as I could. We were fixed to confront a smaller group of minions in a very brief but intense fight.Ethan was the one who handled most of the combat combining his wolf strength with his skills of handling a weapon. I used my magical powers t
Mate by Fate, Bound by Love shadows of the fortress
****************************Lena's POV I and Ethan carefully moved through the darkness, sticking to the shadows to avoid detection. The tension became more heightened as we began to hear the sound of footsteps and the constant growling of Zaes minions. My heart pounded, and I tried to keep myself composed, knowing Adrian was somewhere nearby. There was a serious debate in my mind. I was wondering if I could use my magic to cloak my presence, but I feared I might alert Zane if I couldn't get it right. I knew that every step we took brought us closer to the danger we would eventually have to face. I still had a deep contemplation of the matter, wondering if there was a way I could avoid Zane and not fight him. The whole fortress seemed to be fortified with his dark magic. I could feel the weight of its presence weighing strongly on me.As we continued deeper into the fortress, we began to see more groups of Zane's minions. Now it was really obvious that Zane had already felt my pre

***************************Adrian's POV I tried removing my hands, but he held on tight his grip was strong. He twisted my hands. I groaned in pain. I could hear my bones crack and the sound of my muscles tearing. He used his other hand to give me a hard blow on my belle. It sent me flying over and falling to the ground. He rushed at me on the ground with his vamp speed, hitting me on the ground and brushing me against the wall of the tunnel. I could sense my soul almost slipping away from my body I felt like I was going to die but my mind flashed back to LenaImmediately I felt a sudden wave of strength flow through me it was like the thought of Lena had just sparked new strength within me as I was being dragged around the walls of the tunnel in a circle I managed to bring out my claws using then them to forcefully hit the vampire making sure my claws passed through his skin.The pain he felt made him throw me down forcefully. But he was a vampire. They heal faster than werewolves
