Mated to the Notorious Alpha CHAPTER 28:Betrayal and Jealousy
Days bled into weeks, a tense silence hanging heavy in the air between Kate and Deimon. They existed in a state of uncomfortable civility, sharing meals and stolen glances in a dance of unspoken emotions. The bathroom encounter remained an unspoken secret, a raw memory that both fueled their longing and highlighted the unresolved issues.Then came the invitation. A flyer, emblazoned with a neon wolf howling at the moon, announced a pack gathering – a bonfire party hosted by a neighboring pack. Deimon, hesitant at first, noticed Kate lingering by the kitchen counter, her eyes flitting between the flyer and him."We should go," she said finally, her voice barely above a whisper.Deimon's heart stuttered. Was this her way of acknowledging the unspoken tension? A tentative olive branch towards a fragile peace? "Are you sure?" he asked, cautious not to read too much into it."Maybe…" Kate shrugged, a flicker of something resembling hope in her eyes. "It could be a good distraction."Deimo

The warehouse door rattled violently, a cacophony of banging and shouting echoing through the dusty space. For a fleeting moment, both Kate and Monica were frozen, attention snatched away from their tense standoff. Was it a rescue? Had someone stumbled upon their clandestine meeting?But the commotion died down as abruptly as it began. Silence, thick and heavy, settled once more. It was a manufactured moment, a cruel tease of hope dashed just as quickly as it arose.Monica, her earlier fury momentarily abated, gave a humorless scoff. "Just a distraction," she drawled, her gaze snapping back to Kate. "Now, where were we?"Kate, her heart still hammering in her chest, took a deep breath. The interruption, though brief, had served a purpose. It had reminded her why she couldn't let Monica win. She wouldn't let fear dictate her actions."We were talking about courage," Kate said, her voice firm. "And the fact that you, Monica, are nothing but a coward who hides behind threats and intimida

The familiar scent of Deimon's worn leather jacket and the comforting creak of the old floorboards brought Kate back to herself slowly. Disoriented, she blinked against the harsh light filtering through the dusty blinds of their shared apartment. Her head throbbed with a dull ache, and a wave of nausea washed over her.A choked moan escaped her lips, and Deimon, who had been perched beside her on the threadbare armchair, materialized in front of her in a blur. His face, usually perpetually etched with a playful smirk, was etched with worry. Relief flooded his features as her eyes fluttered open."Kate! You're awake!" His voice, usually a teasing drawl, was laced with a raw urgency. He gently cupped her face, his touch cool against her feverish skin. Concern flickered in his blue eyes, as clear and deep as the summer sky after a storm. Shame washed over her, realizing the fear she must have caused him."Hey," she croaked, her throat scratchy. "What happened?" The warehouse was a hazy m

Deimon cursed under his breath as the cold water pounded down on his back. He could hear Kate rustling around the room, likely putting away the finished assignment. The image of her slipping out of her bra had ignited a fire in him, and the shower wasn't doing much to quell it.Frustration gnawed at him. He wanted her, there was no denying it. But the vulnerability they'd shared earlier hung heavy in the air. He didn't want to be the jerk who ruined their newfound honesty with a clumsy attempt at intimacy.A sigh escaped him. Maybe a cold shower hadn't been the worst idea. He needed to cool his head, not just his body. If Kate wanted him, she'd make a move. And if she didn't, well, forcing things would only push her away.He finished his shower quickly, the silence in the apartment now deafening. He peeked out, expecting to find her asleep, exhausted from their long day. Instead, he found Kate sitting on the edge of the bed, her back turned to him, bathed in the soft glow o

A jolt of electricity shot through Deimon as Kate shifted, the full weight of her settling on him. His eyes snapped open, confusion battling with a surge of unexpected desire. The hazy remnants of sleep clung to him, but the reality of Kate sprawled across his chest was undeniable.Silence enveloped them, thick with tension. Kate's face, flushed a deep crimson, was a mask of mortification. Deimon, trying to decipher the situation, found his voice first."Kate?" he rasped, his voice husky with sleep and the sudden awakening of his senses.Her lips trembled, mirroring the turmoil in her eyes. "I-I'm so sorry, Deimon," she stammered, her voice barely a whisper. "I... I don't know how I ended up here."Deimon could feel the heat radiating from her body, a stark contrast to the coolness of the sheets. He reached out a hand, more to steady himself than anything else, and rested it on the mattress beside her.The air crackled with unspoken desires and a vulnerability neither of them had ant

The walk back to the apartment was a blur of churning emotions for Deimon. Monica's tearful pleas resonated with a strange honesty. Could she have been telling the truth? But if so, who was behind the warehouse incident and why target Kate?He burst into the apartment, his heart hammering in his chest. "Kate!" he called out, his voice laced with urgency. Relief washed over him as he found her sitting at the table, a mug of coffee untouched in front of her.She looked up, her eyes filled with a mix of apprehension and anticipation. "Deimon? You're back."He rushed to her side, his need to reassure her overwhelming. "I talked to Monica." The words tumbled out, the raw anger replaced by a desperate need for answers.Kate's jaw clenched for a moment, but then she nodded. "Did she… deny it?"Deimon hesitated. He didn't want to lie to Kate, but the flicker of genuine pain in Monica's eyes lingered in his mind. "She said… she said she wouldn't hurt you."Kate's face hardened. "Of course, she

A dark satisfaction bloomed in Monica's chest as Chris confirmed his success. Their plan, a sickening concoction of deceit and fear, had worked. Kate was drugged and unconscious, now in the hands of Chris, their reluctant accomplice.A wave of nausea battled with the twisted thrill of victory within Monica. This wasn't the outcome she'd envisioned. Kidnapping had never been part of the plan, but Chris, panicked by the turn of events, had taken it upon himself to escalate the situation.He'd spiked Kate's drink during their "business meeting," the hidden photographer capturing the act as planned. But before they could stage the rest of their charade, Chris, overwhelmed by guilt and fear of the Nascent Moon Pack, panicked.He bundled Kate, still unconscious, into his car and drove to a secluded location, a ramshackle cabin nestled deep within the woods. It was a desperate attempt to buy himself time, a move fueled by terror rather than malice.Monica, now faced with a situation far more

Relief washed over Kate as the familiar sight of her apartment building greeted her. Anna, with a silent wave, deposited her right outside the door. The absence of Deimon's car in the parking lot caused a pang of disappointment, but the exhaustion gnawing at her overshadowed it."Thank you, Anna," Kate said, her voice hoarse but sincere. "For everything."Anna's gaze softened. "Get some rest, child. You'll need your strength when Deimon returns." A hint of a knowing smile played on her lips.With a final nod, Anna shimmered out of existence, leaving Kate alone on the doorstep. Taking a deep breath, she fumbled for her keys, the ordeal still fresh in her mind. The memory of Monica's cruelty, the fear of being trapped, sent shivers down her spine.But there was also the memory of Anna's intervention, a powerful force that had shifted the tide. A flicker of hope ignited within her. Deimon must be frantic, and with Anna ensuring her safety, she could finally focus on healing.Unlocking t

"We can’t trust them anymore," one of the dissenters was saying. "This alliance is going to destroy us. We need to take control before it’s too late.""And what about Kate?" another voice asked. "She’s the key to all this. If we take her out, Deimon will crumble."Kate’s breath caught in her throat. The betrayal was more profound than she had imagined. But before she could process it further, Deimon stepped forward, revealing himself to the group."What do you think you’re doing?" he demanded, his voice low and dangerous.The dissenters froze, their eyes wide with shock. But it was the figure at the center of the group that caught Kate’s attention—the one she had seen in her vision. It was Garrick, the wolf who had voiced his doubts earlier that day."Garrick," Deimon said, his voice filled with disbelief and anger. "How could you?"Garrick met his gaze, unrepentant. "This is bigger than you, Deimon. Bigger than any of us. The pack’s survival is at stake. You’re too blinded by your lo

“They’ve resurfaced,” Anna continued, her voice tight with urgency. “And they’ve teamed up with the rival Alpha. They’re after the Luna’s Tear, yes, but that’s not all. They need you, Kate.”“Me?” Kate’s voice was barely above a whisper.Anna nodded, her gaze softening with sympathy. “Your bloodline, Kate. It traces back to the first Luna, the one who originally wielded the Luna’s Tear. It’s said that only her descendants can fully unlock its power. They need you to gain that power.”Deimon’s grip on the edge of the table tightened, his knuckles turning white. “So this isn’t just about uniting the packs. They want to use Kate as a weapon.”“Exactly,” Anna confirmed. “They believe that with the Luna’s Tear and Kate, they can control not just the packs, but the entire supernatural world. They’ll stop at nothing to get what they want.”A heavy silence fell over the room as the weight of Anna’s words settled in. Kate felt a storm of emotions swirling within her—fear, anger, a deep sense o

Kate stirred awake, the first light of dawn filtering through the heavy curtains of their bedroom. She felt the warmth of Deimon’s body beside her, his arm draped protectively over her waist. For a moment, she allowed herself to stay still, savoring the peacefulness of the morning, a rare moment of calm before the chaos of the day would begin.As if sensing her thoughts, Deimon tightened his hold on her, pulling her closer. "Good morning," he murmured, his voice still heavy with sleep.Kate turned in his arms to face him, her heart fluttering at the sight of his familiar features, softened by the early light. "Morning," she whispered back, her lips curving into a small smile. "Did you sleep well?"He brushed a strand of hair from her face, his fingers lingering on her cheek. "With you by my side? Always."She laughed softly, a sound that seemed to lighten the air between them. "You always know just what to say.""It’s the truth," he replied, his voice serious now. "Every day with you

The dawn of a new day bathed the Academy grounds in a soft, golden light. Kate stood in the clearing, feeling the energy of the Luna’s Tear coursing through her, amplifying her newfound powers. Deimon stood beside her, his presence a comforting anchor.“Alright, Kate,” he said, his voice steady and encouraging. “Let’s see what you can do.”Kate closed her eyes and focused, letting the energy flow through her. She felt the air around her shift, responding to her will. With a flick of her wrist, she manipulated the light and shadows, creating intricate patterns in the air. Deimon watched with awe and pride, and Kate could feel his support bolstering her confidence.“You’re getting better every day,” he said, smiling.“Thanks to you,” she replied, meeting his gaze. “Your belief in me makes all the difference.”Their training sessions had become a daily routine, drawing the attention of others at the Academy. Whispers of Kate’s abilities spread, and soon, instructors and students alike be

Kate sat cross-legged on her bed, the old leather-bound journal resting on her lap. The faded gold lettering on the cover read “Erica,” her mother’s name. Her fingers traced the letters as she took a deep breath, feeling a strange mix of excitement and trepidation. This journal held the secrets of her family’s past, secrets that could change everything she knew about herself.Deimon entered the room, his presence steady and reassuring. He noticed the journal and sat beside her, placing a comforting hand on her shoulder. “Are you ready?” he asked softly.Kate nodded, her resolve firm. “Yes. Let’s find out what my mother had to say.”Opening the journal, she began to read aloud. The first entries were mundane, detailing everyday life, but as she turned the pages, the tone shifted. Her mother’s words grew more urgent, more desperate.***July 10, 1995I’ve kept this secret for so long, hidden from everyone, even my own family. The connection to the Umbra Pack is deeper than anyone knows.

The news spread like wildfire throughout Umbra Academy. Gandal, the future Alpha of the Norse Pack, had issued a challenge to Deimon, seeking to test his strength and authority. Jealousy and ambition had driven Gandal to this point, and now the entire Academy was abuzz with anticipation.Deimon stood in the training room, his thoughts racing as he prepared for the duel. Kate and their allies were gathered around, their support a steady source of strength.“Are you sure about this?” Kate asked, her voice laced with concern. “Gandal is known for being ruthless.”Deimon nodded, meeting her worried gaze. “I have to do this. It’s not just about me; it’s about proving our strength and leadership. If I back down now, it’ll send the wrong message.”Kate sighed, her eyes filled with a mix of fear and determination. “Just be careful. I can’t bear the thought of losing you.”Deimon reached out, cupping her face in his hands. “I promise, I’ll be careful. And I’ll win.”Killian clapped a hand on D

As the days passed, Anna continued her investigation into the Crescent Order. She occasionally updated Deimon and the others on her progress, though the information was still limited. One evening, she came to them with a particularly intriguing lead.“I’ve spoken with a few contacts,” Anna said, her eyes sparkling with excitement. “There’s a rumor that the artifact they’re after is an ancient relic known as the Luna’s Tear. It’s said to grant immense power to whoever possesses it.”Killian frowned. “What kind of power?”Anna shrugged. “The legends are vague, but it’s believed to enhance the abilities of its holder, making them nearly invincible. If the Crescent Order gets their hands on it, they could dominate all the werewolf packs.”Kate looked at Deimon, her face set with determination. “We can’t let that happen.”“We won’t,” Deimon said firmly. “But we need more information. Keep digging, Anna. We need to know exactly what we’re dealing with.”Anna nodded, her determination clear.

The sun was setting, casting a fiery glow across the horizon. Deimon stood on the balcony of his apartment, staring out at the sprawling grounds of Umbra Academy. It was a place of power and prestige, but also one of danger and deceit. Recent events had only reinforced that truth.Inside, Kate was probably unpacking the last of her things. Since she had moved in with Deimon and Killian, the place had felt different—warmer, more alive. Despite her being wolfless, there was something about her that drew him in. His wolf, Onyx, was particularly intrigued by her. Restless now, Onyx paced in the back of Deimon’s mind, urging him to claim and protect her.Deimon turned his thoughts to the task at hand. Anna had asked to speak with him urgently, hinting she had information about Kate’s tormentors. He didn’t trust Anna completely, but she had proven herself a valuable ally. Her intelligence network within the Academy was unparalleled.A knock on the door brought him back to the present. Turni

The rooster's crow pierced the pre-dawn darkness, a harsh alarm clock that jolted Deimon awake. He sat up abruptly, the events of the previous night crashing down on him like a tidal wave. Shame burned in his gut, the memory of the Earthstalker's lifeless eyes a constant reminder of his savagery.But amidst the self-loathing, a spark of hope flickered. Kate's gentle touch, her unwavering trust – they were a lifeline thrown to him in the storm. He had a lot to make up for, but for the first time, he felt a clear path forward.He needed to see Anna. He needed answers, not just about Kate's tormentor, but about the darkness that had consumed him during the competition. Throwing on his clothes, he raced out of the hut, the cool morning air a welcome slap against his feverish cheeks.As he sprinted towards the training grounds, a memory surfaced, sharp and unexpected. It was Anna, her voice a low murmur in his ear, just before the start of the competition. "Win, Deimon," she'd whispered,
