Valkyrie Behati

It took me an entire day yesterday to muster up the courage to speak to Alex again. My heart pounded with each step I took as I made my way to his door.

Now, I stand outside his room, my breath shallow, my hands trembling slightly as I wait for him to emerge. The hallway is quiet, the dim light casting long shadows against the walls.

My gaze drifts to the wall clock, its slow, rhythmic ticking amplifying my anxiety. It’s just before dawn—early enough to know I won’t miss him.

Nervousness coils in my stomach, twisting tighter with each passing second. The thought of him ignoring me, turning away without a word, claws at my insides. But no matter how much that might hurt, I know I have to face it. If it’s about him, I’m prepared for anything.

At last, the door creaks open, and there he is, his eyes widening in surprise as they land on me. I swallow hard, my voice catching in my throat as I force out, “Alex—What time did you sleep?”

His response is quick, almost dismiss

    Valkyrie BehatiWith a slice of bread slathered in butter in my left hand and a glass of milk in the other, I stood in the dim light of the kitchen, feeling the cool evening air settle around us. “I haven't eaten yet,” he mentioned, almost offhandedly, breaking the quiet.“Oh, really? Then you can have this!” I offered cheerfully, reaching out to him with a warm smile, and lightly tapping his shoulder. He turned towards me, his eyes narrowing slightly as they fell upon the food in my hands.“You should eat that, it's your dinner. I'll grab something downstairs,” Alex replied with his usual casual tone, brushing off the offer. He glanced at the glass in my hand and added, “Besides, I’m not a fan of strawberry milk.”“Really? But it tastes so good—” I began to protest, but the words caught in my throat as a sudden wave of nausea hit me. The sweet, creamy scent of the milk, now so close to my nose, made my stomach lurch violently.Without warning, my fingers slipped, and the glass fell f

    Valkyrie BehatiAlex turned to me slowly, his gaze penetrating the silence between us. His voice, a low and steady murmur, carried an edge of warning, “Kyrie, you really shouldn’t be asking me about that.” His words hung in the air, and he paused for a moment, letting their weight sink in before continuing with a playful smirk. “I will abuse you,” he added, almost teasingly, “but not in a mean way.”The subtle arch of his eyebrows, the mischievous glint in his eyes, and the slight curl at the corner of his lips—all of it combined to convey the true meaning behind his words. He wasn’t talking about harm, no, but rather something far more intimate, something that sent a rush of heat to my cheeks. I almost blushed as the implication of his words settled over me like a warm blanket.So, this was what he called "abuse." The kind that left us both breathless and spent, tangled in sheets, our bodies entwined in a rhythm only we could understand. It was his way of teasing, of overstepping

    Valkyrie BehatiWhen Alex informed me that today was the day I needed to paint, a surge of panic ran through me. My first instinct was to check the calendar hanging in my room, frantically flipping through the pages to confirm what I already suspected—his birthday was just around the corner. Sure enough, it was a mere two to three weeks away, and the realization hit me like a ton of bricks: I hadn’t even started his portrait yet. How could I have let this slip? It felt like the world was spinning out of control.“Luna, Pierre is in—” I heard Matt's voice echo from the hallway, but I was already in motion, cutting him off mid-sentence. “Thank you, Matt! I’ll go see him right now!” My feet barely touched the ground as I bolted towards the backyard, ignoring Matt's faint shout behind me, warning me not to run.The people around the mansion had grown increasingly protective, their worry manifesting in ways that mirrored the meticulous nature of their Alpha. It was almost endearing how t

    Valkyrie BehatiThe next day, I made up my mind to sneak out of the mansion. It wasn’t easy; every corner seemed to harbor eyes, and the security was tight, but I’ve always been good at slipping through the cracks. I knew they would try to stop me if they noticed, but I managed to fool most of them, blending into the shadows until I was finally free. They were watching me so eagerly, it adds up to my worries.Waiting around for them had become unbearable, something I couldn’t tolerate any longer. They had been gone for three days without a word, and I was done sitting idly by, helpless and clueless. I needed to know what was going on, and I couldn’t rely on anyone else to find out. They had left me in the dark for too long, and I was determined to shed some light on whatever was happening.My first thought was to go to Shie’s house. She had always been my confidante, the one person I could trust when everything else seemed uncertain. I knew she’d be shocked to see me—after all, it

    Valkyrie BehatiThe weight of the truth in her words settled over me like a heavy fog, thick and undeniable. Alex had always been the one to put us first, no matter what it cost him. He carried the burden of responsibility with a quiet strength, a strength that I had come to admire deeply. Now, it was my turn to step up, to protect the very things he had fought so hard to keep safe.“I don't think that's entirely true,” I began, my voice steady but thoughtful. “Alex doesn't just prioritize us. He prioritizes everything—his duties, and his responsibilities. We’re a part of that, yes, but he would never abandon his obligations just for us.” The conviction in my words was as firm as my belief in Alex. “He's a responsible man, Shie. He wouldn't do something so reckless.”Shie’s smile was gentle, a knowing curve of her lips that held a mixture of understanding and concern. “That's exactly what I told Arnold. But he just doesn't grasp the kind of stress your mate is under right now.”I no

    Valkyrie BehatiHis words lingered in the space between us, hanging like a heavy mist, thick and unyielding. I could almost see the unspoken thoughts swirling behind his eyes, like shadows of a storm brewing just beyond the horizon. He was smiling and seemed to be in a good mood, but there was something deeper—an undercurrent of emotion that was darker, more complicated. It was as if he was holding back a tidal wave of truth, and I was left standing on the shore, waiting for it to crash.I wanted to ask him a hundred questions, to open the doors of his mind and let the truth spill out. But instead, I nodded a small, silent gesture that gave him the space to speak at his own pace. I hoped that by not pushing, he would feel safe enough to tell me everything when he was ready. My heart pounded in anticipation of what he might reveal.“I've been attending hearings at the court,” Alex began, his voice calm but tinged with a hint of something more profound. “And when I say the court, I m

    Valkyrie BehatiHe blinked, snapping back to reality, and wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, though there was no drool to be found. He chuckled, a deep, rich sound that sent a shiver down my spine. “Sorry,” he said, a mischievous glint in his eyes. “It’s just hard not to appreciate a meal like this.” He reached for the bath bombs, sprinkling them into the tub, the water quickly filling with a fragrant, colorful foam. “I can’t wait to shower with you,” he added, his voice low, the promise of what was to come hanging in the air between us.Alex led me to the bathroom with a quiet intensity, his hand gently guiding mine as he brought me to the edge of the bathtub. Without a word, he positioned me in front of him, his touch tender as he began to wash my hair. Each movement was deliberate, his fingers massaging my scalp with a care that made me feel like I was being pampered at a luxurious spa. The tension in my body started to melt away, and I could barely suppress the soft m

    Valkyrie BehatiThe next morning arrived with a sudden, sharp knock on my door, pulling me from the comforting embrace of sleep. I groggily pushed myself out of bed, my feet dragging across the floor as I made my way to answer it.“Yes—” My words were cut off by the piercing voice of Shie, who barged into my room without waiting for an invitation.“Why are you still sleeping?!” she nearly screeched, her tone high and urgent, causing me to flinch.“What do you mean?” I mumbled through a yawn, rubbing the sleep from my eyes. “It’s only ten in the morning.”I was glad I’d taken the time to wash up the night before, especially after the intense intimacy I had shared. Even now, a faint afterglow lingered, but I pushed it aside, focusing on the present.“That’s exactly the problem!” Shie exclaimed, her hands flailing in exasperation. “We only have eight, maybe nine hours to get you ready for your ritual!”Her words hit me like a bolt of lightning, and my eyes widened as realization dawned.

  • My Ex Wants Me Back, No Way!   Epilogue

    Three years had slipped away, and sometimes it felt like time had passed in the blink of an eye. Other days, it felt like a lifetime ago. It still amazes me that I somehow managed to escape the cycle of death that once seemed so inevitable. There were moments I had been sure I wouldn’t survive, and yet, I was, standing on the other side, a different person but still whole.I hadn’t heard from Giovanni since everything had ended, despite asking Alex about him more times than I could count. Alex, and even the others, seemed determined to keep the truth from me, perhaps to protect me from any lingering darkness. But I could feel it, deep down—I knew Giovanni had faced the consequences for his actions. Whatever fate had met him, it was just. The silence only confirmed what I already suspected: his suffering had been immense.The cure for the rogues and vampires still hadn’t been found. Some of them, the ones who had been captured, perished in their cells over time. The food they were g

    Valkyrie BehatiAfter a long and exhausting week, the city was finally beginning to recover. The damage that had shaken everyone was slowly being repaired, and the streets, once filled with chaos, were now finding their rhythm again. People were astonished when the story of the attack hit the media. It was all over the news—how Giovanni had plotted to take control of the city, how the vampires and rogues had unleashed terror, and, most unexpectedly, how I had stepped in to stop him. The fact that I, carrying Alex’s heir, had been there in the heart of the battle left many speechless. Some called it reckless, while others found it admirable.Even now, as the city heals, I can barely wrap my mind around the fact that it’s truly over. Giovanni’s dark plans have been shattered, and the city is safe—for now. But there’s a sadness that hangs heavy over us all. We lost some of our own, members of the pack who fought bravely to protect us. The losses weigh on me, a reminder that victory o

    Valkyrie BehatiHis words sent a shiver down my spine, paralyzing me in his grip. My mind raced, desperately searching for any possible escape from this nightmare, but nothing came to me. I was trapped in his arms, and the weight of his presence felt suffocating.“Love me?” I echoed, my voice trembling with disbelief and anger. “Please, you thought about killing me just because you couldn’t have me. You’re insane.” My hands pressed against his chest, trying to push him away, but my strength felt like nothing compared to the grip he had on me.Giovanni chuckled darkly, a sound that made my stomach churn. “You’re sharper than I gave you credit for,” he admitted, his words laced with mocking amusement. My eyes widened in horror as I realized what he meant. Then I saw it—the syringe gleaming in his hand, inches away from my skin. He was going to inject me with whatever deadly concoction he had prepared. Panic surged through me, but before I could react, Alex moved, faster than either o

    Third Person PovThe air was thick with tension as Alex faced against Giovanni, every muscle in his body coiled in preparation for a move that could turn the tide. His mate, Kyrie, stood a short distance away, her eyes locked onto the battle, her heart racing. She knew Alex didn’t want her to get involved just yet. He was looking for an opening, a chance to gain the upper hand, and she had to trust him. But watching him struggle, her instincts screamed at her to act.Then, in a flash, everything changed. With a cruel smirk, Giovanni managed to slip away from Alex’s grasp and teleported across the battlefield, materializing dangerously close to Kyrie. Her breath hitched as his fist swung toward her, but she reacted quickly, dodging just in time. The blow narrowly missed her, and she stumbled backward, crashing against a rough rock. A gasp escaped her lips as her back met the hard surface of a tree trunk, pain flaring through her body.The sound of her distress caught Alex’s attenti

    Valkyrie BehatiGiovanni let out deep, guttural grunts and moans as if his body was preparing to morph into something far more terrifying than I could ever imagine. The sound was unnerving, and I braced myself, uncertain of what monstrous form he was about to take. Yet, as I watched him contort and strain, I couldn’t help but think—did it really matter? He was already a monster in every sense of the word.Alex had seen enough. Without hesitation, he lunged toward Giovanni, determined to stop whatever was happening before it was too late. But the moment he got close, Giovanni lashed out, sending Alex stumbling back, clutching his chest in pain. His face twisted in frustration.“He’s much stronger now, love,” Alex warned, his voice strained but urgent. “You need to back away, please.”I shook my head, my resolve solid. “No. This is where I need to be. I’m staying right here, okay?”Alex glanced at me, his worry evident, but he didn’t argue. We both turned our attention to Giovanni as

    Valkyrie Behati“Where are you, Kyrie?!” Giovanni’s voice echoed through the forest, his rage clear, but I couldn’t pull my gaze from Alex. His eyes were distant, glazed over, and though I wanted so badly to ask if he still recognized me, my lips stayed sealed. There was a knot in my throat, the question weighing heavy on my heart.Suddenly, both of our heads snapped toward the far edge of the woods. And saw him there walking toward us. Giovanni had been preparing this whole time before he even got chosen as a commander. He was willing to take down everyone who got in his way to be king of werewolves.The crunch of leaves signaled Giovanni's approach. He had found us. Alex remained unnervingly silent beside me, and my stomach churned with worry. What had they done to him? The man who stood by me now felt like a stranger.“There you two are,” Giovanni sneered, but his tone was filled with disdain as if the sight of us disgusted him. His lips twisted in amusement, though his eyes burn

    Valkyrie BehatiJust when I thought I could drive the blade into his neck, something sharp whizzed past me. A syringe hurled with precision. My senses kicked in just in time, and I instinctively moved back, narrowly avoiding it. The adrenaline coursed through me as I turned to the side, my gaze locking onto the culprit. There stood Tanya, her eyes filled with a fiery rage, glaring at me like she was ready to rip me apart.Her presence didn’t shake me, though. I stood my ground, unwavering, and met her fury with a calm smile. “Oh, hey, it’s you. Laine got caught,” I said, my voice light, as though I was greeting an old friend. “You must be over the moon now that you’ve all the time in the world with Giovanni.”Her face contorted with anger, and she screamed at me, her voice raw and full of venom. “Shut up! You ruined my life! You took Alex away from me, you snake!”I didn’t flinch. “You ruined your own life, Tanya,” I said, my tone steady but firm. “You let yourself get manipulated

    Valkyrie BehatiSo many thoughts are swirling in my head as I stand rooted to the spot, trying to absorb everything he's saying. It feels like the weight of the past is pressing down on me, and the more he talks, the more it all comes crashing in.Back in my previous life, I watched as Alex spiraled toward his destruction. It all began after the accident at Hotel Grandia. From that moment, he changed. Ruthlessness took over, not just toward his pack and commanders, but to everyone in the city. At the time, I couldn’t understand why, but now, hearing it from Giovanni makes sense. Alex had been drugged.I don't know why I wasn’t affected the same way. Maybe it was pure luck that I only ended up poisoned instead. Still, there are so many unanswered questions swirling in my mind. Why had it come to this? Why had he gone so far as to hunt me down? Why was he so determined to kill me? Even now, I struggle to understand the depth of his madness.“Why do you still want me back?” I ask, my v

    Valkyrie BehatiAfter my furious screams, a sinister laugh echoed from the distance. I recognized that sound all too well. It sent a shiver down my spine.Before long, Giovanni emerged from the thick fog. Once sharp and calculating, his eyes were now bloodshot, glowing with an unnatural red hue. Something about him had changed drastically. He looked... broken, like a man who had tampered with forces beyond his control, and the result was terrifying.“Ah, finally, the woman I’ve been longing to see,” Giovanni breathed out in a slow, menacing tone, a twisted smile stretching across his face. His voice was ragged like he had lost a part of his sanity. It was clear to me now—he was no longer the same man. He had descended into madness.“I escaped that wretched prison just to find you,” he said, his steps closing in, but before he could get any closer, Matt moved swiftly, standing protectively in front of me. Arnold followed, positioning himself beside Matt, their presence a solid barri
