My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection 054: Dark Side Of Friendship
COBY'S POVI watched Andrew walk away, the silence between us shattered by Vivian’s voice. It cracked like a whip—sharp and angry."Have you lost your damn mind, Coby?" she snapped, her arms crossed so tightly over her chest that it seemed like she was holding herself together."We will see," I said simply."Explain yourself, or I swear, you'll have me to contend with," she pushed.I exhaled slowly, forcing calm into my voice, though my mind was already swimming in a pool of rage. "Trust me, Vivian," I said, turning my head slightly to meet her gaze. "I'm not about to forgive Andrew for his betrayal. Not that easily."Her eyes flickered, narrowing as she leaned closer, suspicion tightening her features. "Then why even meet with him?" she demanded, her words biting, daring me to explain, to give her something she could cling to—something that made sense.A faint smile tugged at the corner of my mouth. I glanced away from her, looking out into the distance."Because he needs a reminder,

ANDREW’S POVI gazed up at Coby, my heart pounding so hard it felt like it might tear through my chest. Every beat echoed in my ears as I looked into his eyes, trying to find the courage to say what I had to.My throat tightened, and the words clung there, thick and suffocating. "Hannah has a son," I whispered, my voice barely escaping. The confession felt like a blade in my throat.His face shifted. The sharp, unwavering confidence he always carried faltered. For the first time, I saw something behind his eyes—something fragile, cracking beneath the surface. Fear? Shock? I wasn’t sure, but his expression chilled me. His skin lost its color."What?" he growled, his voice low and dangerous—the kind that sent a shiver down my spine. His hand tightened around the dagger, knuckles turning white. I swallowed, the weight of my next words making my knees weak."The child... is yours too," I forced out, the truth heavy on my tongue. Each word felt like it was being ripped out of me. I held my

ANDREW'S POVWhen I opened my eyes the next morning, I didn’t expect to see Lily slumped beside my bed, her head resting on the edge of the mattress, her body twisted awkwardly in the chair.Her dark hair, tangled and unkempt, spilled across her face, hiding her strained expression. The sight tugged at something inside me—a warmth, a kind of gratitude that she stayed.I reached out instinctively, my fingers hovering above her shoulder, about to wake her gently. But then, her lips parted, and a quiet, broken sound escaped.“No—no, please stop,” she whimpered, her voice laced with terror. Her face contorted, deep lines creasing her forehead as if she were fighting something in her sleep.My heart lurched. “Lily, hey,” I whispered softly, placing my hand on her arm and shaking her gently. “It’s just a dream. Wake up.”Her body tensed further, her hands clenching into fists, and my worry grew. I shook her again, more urgently this time. “Lily!”Suddenly, her eyes flew open, wide and unfoc

HANNAH'S POVI stood frozen, my breath caught in my throat as Andrew’s words tore through the air between us, each syllable like a punch to the chest."Alpha Coby knows about your son."The world seemed to tilt. I could feel my pulse hammering in my ears, the words repeating, taunting me. How could he know? Our secret—my secret—was supposed to be safe. My body felt cold as panic surged through my veins, making it impossible to think.“Who told him?” My voice came out a broken whisper, trembling with disbelief. I wasn’t sure I wanted the answer. I searched Andrew’s face; his eyes were downcast, avoiding mine. Deep down, I already knew.His lips barely moved as he mumbled, "I’m sorry, Hannah."I blinked, trying to process it, my heart thrashing in my chest. "Sorry for what?"“I told him,” Andrew admitted, his voice heavy with guilt. He glanced up at me, a brief flash of shame crossing his face before he looked away again. "I had to... to save myself."For a split second, the world went

COBY’S POVI stormed out of the woods, leaving Andrew behind, each step heavy with anger. My hands were clenched so tightly my knuckles throbbed. His voice still echoed in my head, sharp as broken glass, cutting deeper with every passing second.“Hannah had a son... two years ago... and he’s yours too.”I stumbled as the words rang in my ears, my breath catching in my throat. A son. My son. Every fragment of the past—Hannah disappearing, the sleepless nights wondering what had happened to her—now snapped into a cruel, undeniable picture.She hadn’t just escaped. She had left with our child in her womb. And for two whole years, I had lived in ignorance.I could feel my pulse pounding in my temples as disbelief fought with the fury bubbling beneath my skin. How could she? How could she keep something like this from me? And Andrew—he knew. He knew, and yet he said nothing.The thought turned my anger into a fire I could barely contain. I shoved my fists into my pockets, trying to steady m

COBY’S POVThe days had blurred together, each one a heavy fog of guilt and secrecy. My heart pounded under the weight of a truth I couldn’t reveal. Every glance from Vivian—sharp, questioning—was a needle pricking deeper into my conscience. She was no fool.Her suspicions were growing, a silent storm building between us. And every day, I felt the pull—our son, somewhere within the pack. The thought gnawed at me constantly, a relentless ache.I couldn’t take it anymore. It had to end. I had to know, to face it all. I needed to see Hannah. Confront her. Get the answers that had eluded me for too long.Before I knew it, my feet were moving, taking me out of our quarters and straight to Xavier’s mansion. The closer I got, the harder my heart pounded, each step fueled by a mix of anger, desperation, and a flicker of hope.The guard at the entrance stood tall, his face a mask of indifference, but his eyes betrayed suspicion. His hesitation only fanned the fire inside me.“I need to see Han

COBY/HANNAH’S POV*Coby’s POV*“What do you mean, Hannah? You think I would hurt my own son?”I barely recognized my own voice—it was sharp, defensive, almost aching. Her accusation cut deep, like a wound I didn’t know could exist between us. My eyes darted over her face, searching for a sign, any sign, that she didn’t truly believe it. But there was no comfort in her expression. Just fear. Fear of me.Hannah’s lips formed a thin line, her eyes hardening. “Not you, Coby,” she said quietly, “but Vivian would. And I can’t take that risk.”Vivian. That name—it twisted something inside me. My gut churned, though I tried to push the thought away. I couldn’t let myself believe it. She wouldn’t. She couldn’t. But doubt crept in, slow and unwelcome, wrapping itself around my resolve. My fists clenched at my sides as I tried to shake it off. Vivian was capable of a whole lot of things, there was no denying that.“Vivian wouldn’t dare.” The words came out firm, though the certainty wasn’t there

VIVIAN’S POVI sat on the couch, book open, but the words blurred together, unread. My eyes followed Coby’s every movement as he grabbed his jacket and headed for the door. He paused for a second, glancing back at me. I quickly pretended to turn a page. My heart pounded, but I forced a casual smile. He wasn’t buying it. Neither was I.The door clicked softly behind him, and the silence that followed felt deafening. I tossed the book aside and stood, my chest tight with unease.Something was wrong. I could feel it in the pit of my stomach, that gnawing sense of dread I couldn't shake off. Coby had been distant since his meeting with Andrew that night, shutting me out with that maddening, dismissive line he always gave whenever I asked what was wrong: “It’s nothing, Vivian.”I clenched my jaw. It wasn’t nothing. His smile didn’t reach his eyes anymore, and when he laughed, it felt hollow, like he was forcing it for my sake. But worst of all, he wouldn’t meet my gaze. Every time I looked

My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection 082: Elijah's Exit
HANNAH’S POVThe moment Elijah stepped into the doorway, flanked by his men, my breath hitched. His presence was like a storm rolling in—dark and suffocating. My eyes locked onto his, and for a split second, the world narrowed to just him: his cold, calculating gaze, the cruel curve of his lips. My chest tightened as fear and anger clawed at my throat.“Step aside, girl,” Elijah said, his voice smooth but laced with venom. “Hand over the Luna and the boy. Do that, and I promise you won’t get hurt.”Taylor didn’t move. Her stance was steady, her voice like steel. “I’m not afraid of you, Elijah. Turn around and leave, or I’ll make you regret ever coming here.”Elijah chuckled, low and mocking. “I was hoping you’d say that. Now, I get to grant your wish.”With a flick of his hand, his men lunged forward. Taylor turned to me, her eyes blazing with determination. “Go back upstairs, Luna. Take Jackson. Stay there until I clear this. Don’t come down until I say it’s safe.”I nodded, my throa
My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection 081: Blood, Sweat And Silence
XAVIER’S POVThe battlefield was a storm of chaos—a whirlwind of snarls, blood, and desperation from both sides. My claws tore through flesh, my fangs dripped with the metallic tang of enemy blood, and my lungs burned with every ragged breath.The rogues and Lycans came in waves, relentless, their eyes wild with a hunger that bordered on madness but Ross was nowhere in sight. I don't want to believe he was hiding behind his army because that would be the height of cowardice.These set of rogues weren’t the usual stragglers we’d faced before. No, these were something darker, something angrier. And they just. Kept. Coming in their numbers. Good thing, Andrew and his warrior knew how to handle the rest of them and they were holding them back at the western border.Kas fought beside me, his movements sharp but slowing with each kill and strike, his Lycan precision no longer as accurate as I had hoped.I could feel it in the air, in the way his strikes lacked their usual precision. My ches
My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection 080: Home Invasion
HANNAH’S POVThe growls and screams of pack members outside clawed at my ears, each one a dagger twisting deeper into my chest. I couldn’t watch the massacre anymore. Warriors from both sides were falling, their lives snuffed out like candles in a storm.My heart ached for them—for the families who would never see their loved ones again. Everyone except Elijah and Ross. They deserved whatever hell awaited them. But Xavier… Kas… Andrew… Where were they? Out there, somewhere, fighting. Leading. Protected by their men, but still in the thick of it. The thought made my stomach churn.I turned away from the window, my hands trembling. The weight of it all pressed down on me, suffocating. I couldn’t bear to see another drop of blood spilled. Not tonight.Jackson squirmed in my arms, his tiny fists clutching at my shirt. His whimpers snapped me back to the present. “Shh, baby,” I whispered, rocking him gently. “It’s okay. Mommy’s here.”His wide, fearful eyes searched mine, and I forced a sm
My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection 079: Wake Up Call
HANNAH’S POVThe night had been perfect—soft, quiet, the kind of peace that sinks into your soul and makes you believe, just for a moment, that the world could be kind. I was curled up next to Xavier, his warmth wrapping around me, our breaths falling in sync as we slept. But that peace shattered in an instant.A piercing, excruciatingly loud alarm blared through the pack house. I jolted awake, my heart hammering in my chest. The obnoxious sound grated on my ears, and I winced, trying to get my bearings.What could have caused such a ruckus in the middle of the night? I glanced at Xavier beside me, but he was already up, standing at the side of the bed, his body rigid. His eyes had darkened, his jaw clenched tightly.Then it hit me like a punch to the gut—Ross.The alarm could only mean one thing: Ross and his men were here. My blood ran cold.Xavier growled deeply, the sound rumbling through the room and sending shivers down my spine. He stormed out of the bedroom, his movements fast
My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection 078: Sneak Attacks
Ross’s POVAs we advanced, I couldn’t help but think about how sweet it would be to see the fear in Xavier’s eyes, the realization that he couldn’t protect his pack, his precious little family. This wasn’t just an attack. This was personal.The further we moved into Shadow Moon Pack’s territory, the heavier the anticipation grew. The silence between us was palpable, broken only by the occasional whisper of leaves beneath our boots.My senses were on high alert, every nerve in my body tuned to the slightest sound or movement. But everything was still. Just the way I wanted it.As we neared the outer edges of the pack’s territory, I held up a hand, signaling the others to stop. Roman and Elijah froze instantly, their eyes fixed on me, waiting for my next move. I crouched low, scanning the area. I knew Xavier would have his best guards patrolling, but they weren’t expecting this—not yet.I motioned for Roman to scout ahead. He slipped into the shadows without a word, his movements so flu
My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection 077: Silent But Deadly
ROSS’S POVThe engine’s hum was a low, steady growl, matching the tension coiled in my chest. My fingers drummed against my thigh, each tap a silent countdown. Ten years. A decade of planning, of rage simmering beneath the surface, of dreams drenched in vengeance. And now, finally, it was here. The night Xavier would learn what it meant to lose everything.I glanced out the window. The road stretched endlessly ahead, swallowed by the shadows of towering trees. A cruel smile tugged at my lips. He had no idea what was coming. None of them did.Roman, my most trusted, sat behind the wheel, his grip tight on the leather, his jaw set in a hard line. His eyes were fixed on the road, but I could feel the anticipation radiating off him—sharp and electric. He was ready. We all were.In the back seat, Elijah sat quietly, his usual chatter replaced by a tense silence. But I could see the eager glint in his eyes, the way his fingers twitched restlessly against his knee. He was hungry for this, to
My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection 076: Neck Snaps And Speed Bumps
Coby’s POVI don’t know how long I was out, but when I finally came to, I was stuffed into the cramped trunk of a moving vehicle. I could tell by the smell of gasoline and the frequent speed bumps. My head throbbed, and every inch of my body ached from the earlier impacts.That fucking monster had broken my neck back there without a second thought. I was lucky to still be alive, but it was going to take a while for me and my wolf to recover completely. For now, I could only depend on myself to get out alive.As the car sped along, the salty taste of the air grew fainter, and I could smell pine and cedarwood, indicating a change of scenery. My jaw tightened as the reality of the situation set in—Ross was heading straight for Shadow Moon Pack. And there was nothing I could do to stop him. At least, not while I was stuck in the trunk of his car.I could feel the cold metal pressing against my skin and hear the hum of the engine as it barreled down the road. Fear clawed at my chest, but I
My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection 075: Friend Or Foe
COBY’S POVThe phone rang again, each tone going straight to voicemail. I kept trying, but it ended the same fucking way. It was insane. My jaw tightened, frustration bubbling under my skin. She had to know. She just had to. Time was slipping through my fingers like quicksand, and I couldn’t afford to lose any more of it.I cursed under my breath, the sound sharp in the empty room. My fingers trembled as I dialed Andrew’s number next. Maybe he could get to her. Maybe he could deliver my message to Xavier as well, and Xavier could take it from there.Andrew’s phone rang once, then twice, and then there was an answer. “Hello?” A woman’s voice, soft but firm, cut through my thoughts. Lily. Of course. Andrew’s girl.“Who is this?” she asked, her voice suspicious.I froze, the words catching in my throat. Should I explain? Could I trust her? My mind raced, but the clock in my head was ticking too fast. I didn’t have time for this. I didn’t have time for anything.I hung up without a word,
My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection : The Quiet That Screams
XAVIER’S POVThe security check was done. Every patrol was synchronized, and every entry point sealed. On paper, it was flawless. But the quiet—the fact that it was suddenly so quiet—unsettled me. I wished I knew what Ross was planning, but for the past few days, there had been no sign of him or his men anywhere near our pack.Silence from him wasn’t peace; it was a coiled spring, ready to snap. My fingers twitched as I pulled out my phone and dialed Taylor. Hannah and Jackson’s faces flashed in my mind, and my chest tightened painfully.“Alpha,” Taylor answered, her voice crisp and no-nonsense.“How is my family?” I asked, my tone clipped, betraying none of the storm inside.“They’re fine,” she said steadily. “Luna Hannah took Jackson to school. We’re back now. I’ve got eyes on her. Nothing’s out of place.”I exhaled slowly, the tension in my shoulders easing just a fraction. “Good. Stay sharp. If anything changes, you call me.”“Always,” she replied, her voice softening just enough
