My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection 128: Bites Mark And Bad Vibes
ANDREW’S POVI walked away from Lily’s house with a slow, steady rhythm in my steps, a lingering warmth wrapped around me like a favorite blanket. The night air was crisp, carrying the faint scent of pine and freshly fallen leaves, but all I could feel was the memory of her against me—her laughter still ringing in my ears, her sparkling eyes etched in my mind.Her smile... God, that smile. I could still hear the soft way she whispered my name when we made love back at my house.My lips curved upward as I replayed every moment: how she leaned into me, the way her hand fit so perfectly in mine. The thought sent a tingle racing down my spine, igniting something primal and electric. My thoughts raced toward tomorrow. I couldn’t wait to see her again.Lost in my reverie, I barely noticed the world around me until a sudden unease rippled through the air. My footsteps faltered. It was subtle at first, like the prickle of static along my skin, but it grew stronger with each step. I turned sha

ANDREW’S POVThe room was thick with tension, the kind that clings to your skin and makes breathing feel like a chore. I stared at Coby, the weight of his words pressing down on me. My chest felt tight, my pulse a steady drumbeat in my ears. He was still sitting across from me, his hands clasped tightly, knuckles white against his tanned skin. His jaw was set, but his eyes betrayed him—stormy, restless, searching.I broke the silence first. “Coby,” I began, my voice low and measured. “You know I’m with you, right? No matter what.”He looked up sharply, his gaze locking onto mine. For a second, I thought I saw something crack—the barest flicker of vulnerability. But it vanished as quickly as it appeared. His lips pressed into a firm line, and he nodded, though his expression didn’t soften.“I need you to do something for me,” he said, his voice hoarse. “This isn’t about loyalty. This is about trust.”I swallowed hard, feeling the shift in his tone. “What do you need?”He leaned forward

XAVIER’S POVI stood before the mirror, wrestling with the tie yet again. No matter how carefully I adjusted it, the knot seemed determined to defy me—too high, too low, slightly crooked. The reflection staring back at me was a mixture of determination and frustration, a man caught between his duty and his heart.Leaving was always the hardest part. Hannah’s gentle smile and Jackson’s unfiltered wonder haunted me every time. A small voice inside me begged to stay, to ignore the weight of leadership, and just be a husband and father. But the Lycan King couldn’t afford hesitation. Not now. Not ever.For once, Kasper wouldn’t be at my side. His unyielding loyalty and sharp instincts were needed here—to protect my family and secure the pack while I was away. I trusted no one else with such a task.I exhaled heavily and tore the tie loose in frustration. The silk slipped from my fingers just as Hannah walked in, the familiar sound of my suitcase brushing the doorframe.She paused, leaning

XAVIER/HANNAH POVXavier’s POVThe steady hum of the engine filled the space between us, a calm rhythm that seemed at odds with the storm brewing in my mind. Kasper, ever focused, kept his eyes on the road, his expression unreadable. But I knew him well enough to sense when something was eating at him.He finally broke the silence, his voice low and deliberate. “Elder Luke is proving to be tougher than I thought.”I glanced at him, noting the tension in his jaw. “Still no trace of his other account?”“As much as I hate to admit it, it’s true,” Kasper said, his grip tightening on the wheel. “He has me meeting dead ends at every turn. The other pack’s warriors are pissed, Xavier. They’re not just questioning our ability to provide them with weapons—they’re questioning you.”My gaze hardened. “Let them. By the time I’m done with this meeting, they’ll remember why I’m Alpha.”He shot me a sidelong glance, a faint smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth. “That’s the Xavier I know. Just do
Last Updated : 2024-12-05My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection 132: The Audacity
HANNAH’S POVI watched Vivian walk away, her heels striking the stone path with a rhythm that echoed louder than it should have. Her usual confident stride faltered ever so slightly as she turned her head, her sharp, calculating eyes meeting mine for just a heartbeat.My stomach twisted, but I stood my ground, arms folded tightly around my son as if daring her to come back and try again. She didn’t. She disappeared around the corner, her silhouette vanishing into the afternoon haze. Only then did I allow the breath I’d been holding to escape in a slow, controlled exhale.“The Freaking Audacity,” I muttered under my breath, my voice low but seething. The thought churned in my mind, poisonous and sharp. Does she really think she can just march in here and demand to see my son and I would just let her?I shook my head, bitterness rising like bile in my throat. Vivian had forfeited any claim to my son the moment she decided her selfish desires mattered more than family.The audacity of he

HANNAH’S POVEva's sharp heels clicked against the stone floor as she took a deliberate step closer, her piercing gaze locking onto mine. Her lips curled into a sneer as venomous as her tone.“I don’t have anything to say to you, Hannah,” she spat, her voice dripping with malice. “But clearly, you’ve got a lot to get off your chest.”I didn’t flinch. Instead, I tilted my head, letting a mocking smile tug at the corners of my lips.“Oh, really?” My voice was smooth, but the steel beneath it was unmistakable. “If you’ve got nothing to say, then why were you lingering earlier? Or is subtlety not your strong suit?”Eva’s laugh was low and biting, twisting in the air like a blade. She shook her head slowly, her expression oozing disdain.“Lingering? Oh, honey,” she drawled, each word dripping with mockery. “You flatter yourself. Watching you parade around like the world—or better yet, the pack—revolves around you is just too entertaining. Newsflash, Hannah: it doesn’t.”My fists clenched i
Last Updated : 2024-12-06My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection 134: New Game Plan
EVA’S POVThe confrontation with Hannah lingered in my mind as I walked away, my heels striking the stone floor like a relentless drumbeat. Each click echoed in the silence, amplifying the storm brewing inside me.Andrew’s gaze burned into my back, a searing weight I couldn’t shake. But I refused to turn around. I’d pushed him—I knew that much—but how far? And worse, how far would he go to defend her? That nosy bastard.The air in the corridor felt colder, carrying the bite of her words. My fingers brushed against the rough wall for support, unease coiling tighter in my chest with every step. Would she really tell Xavier? And if she did, how would he react? I knew he was fiercely protective of her—and that brat of hers. Had I just made the biggest mistake of my life?Her voice still rang in my ears, low and steady, yet sharp enough to draw blood. Beneath her calm exterior was something sinister, something calculating. I’d felt its edge.By the time I reached my quarters, my thoughts w

EVA’S POVI leaned in close to Vivian, my breath warm against her ear as I whispered the plan. I felt the subtle tremor ripple through her frame. When I pulled back, I searched her face, desperate for the flicker of agreement that could tether us to the same course.But her eyes widened instantly, flashing with alarm as her body went rigid, her breath catching like a startled bird’s.“Eva,” she hissed, her voice trembling with disbelief. She stepped back as if the words themselves had weight, forcing space between us. “That’s insane. Do you even hear yourself?”Her fingers curled and uncurled at her sides—a telltale sign of her nerves. Her gaze darted to the door, the panic there unmistakable, as though expecting it to burst open at any second.“It’s reckless,” she continued, her tone sharp but unsteady. “It’s like lighting a match in a room full of gas. Everything could blow up!”I sighed, frustration bubbling beneath a fragile mask of calm. I couldn’t lose her to fear—not now.“Vivi

Coby’s POVThe next morning, I stood outside the coroner's office, a knot of unease twisting in my stomach. The dawn light washed the street in muted grays, the quiet air punctuated only by the faint rustle of leaves. My breath hung in visible puffs as I exhaled, each one feeling heavier than the last. Sleep had been an elusive luxury—every time I closed my eyes, the weight of what was to come pressed harder against my chest.The sound of measured footsteps pulled me from my thoughts. Xavier’s figure emerged from the misty street, his stride calm and deliberate. Even in the low light, his presence seemed to command the world around him."Morning," he greeted, his voice steady but tinged with an edge I couldn’t quite place. His piercing eyes met mine, searching for something beneath the surface."Morning," I replied, forcing my tone into something resembling calm. My hands, buried deep in my pockets, clenched into fists."Did you sleep?" he asked, his brow lifting in faint skepticism.
My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection 215: Cover Up
COBY’S POVI clenched my hands into fists, my resolve hardening as I thought about everything. Before I could further my plans involving Elijah. I would find a way to eliminate any evidence in that report linking me to the crime and expose Elijah for the monster he truly was.When Xavier and the pack saw the truth behind his mask, I’d ensure he was the one who paid the ultimate price. No one else needed to know my secret. As far as the world was concerned, Vivian’s killer was still out there—and I would keep it that way.I walked briskly to my car, my mind racing with possibilities. They couldn’t get too close. I couldn’t let that happen. If they found out, it would all be over—my plan, my revenge, my life as I knew it.Sitting behind the wheel, I gripped the steering wheel until my knuckles turned white. My thoughts wouldn’t stop spinning. I needed to think, to figure out how to stay one step ahead of them. Because if the truth came out, there would be no escape. Not for me.The driv
My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection 214: Guilty Conscience
COBY’S POVThe chill of the evening clung to my skin as I left the training grounds, sharper than the sweat cooling on my back. But it was nothing compared to the ice coiling in my chest. The hospital loomed against the night sky, its white walls muted in the dim glow of the streetlights when I arrived.I lingered by the side entrance, my pulse steady but my breath shallow. From here, I could hear them—voices threading through the stillness. I hadn’t come to eavesdrop; I’d come to check on Cecilia, to see if there was any improvement. But now, I found myself rooted to the spot, my feet betraying me, my ears straining to pick up the conversation between Hannah and Xavier.Hannah’s voice drifted down the lobby, soft yet strained. “I can’t leave, Xavier. What if she wakes up and I’m not here? I need to be with her.”I peeked around the corner, watching as she stood firm, her arms crossed in that determined way of hers. Xavier sighed, his tone calm but edged with frustration. “Hannah, you
My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection 213: Meltdown
COBY’S POVI stumbled out of Eva’s house, my chest heaving as if I’d run miles, though my legs barely registered the steps beneath them. My mind was a storm—rage and regret swirling so violently that I couldn’t think straight.Each breath felt sharp, cutting through the tightness in my throat. My feet moved on their own, pulling me farther from the suffocating weight of what I’d just done—farther from her house.Eva’s face wouldn’t leave me. That pale, terrified expression—the way her lips trembled as she backed away from me. The memory tightened around my ribs like a vice. My hands curled into fists at my sides.I’d come so close. Too close to choking the life out of her tonight.Her fear had thrilled me for one terrible second. That scared me even more than anything else. But she deserved it, didn’t she? After everything she’d done? For the lies, the pain, and the part she played in Vivian’s destruction?Vivian.Her name ripped through me like glass. I stopped dead in my tracks, my
My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection 212: Choked
EVA’S POVCoby's words hung in the air like smoke, clinging to every breath I tried to take. His eyes, sharp and relentless, bore into mine, alive with a storm of emotions I couldn’t begin to unravel. When he stepped closer, his movements deliberate, almost predatory, my heart raced. His voice, low and serrated with urgency, sliced through the suffocating silence."I know you know something, Eva. Don’t lie to me." His words were a command, not a plea. "This isn’t the time for games. If you have even the slightest idea who’s behind this, you have to tell me."I stumbled back, the intensity of his presence nearly knocking me off balance. My chest heaved as panic swirled in my gut. "I—I don’t know anything, Coby." My voice was barely audible, a quivering whisper trying to rise above the weight of his accusation. "I swear, I don’t know what happened."Coby’s eyes narrowed, his frustration turning to something darker. "You don’t get it, do you? This isn’t just about Vivian. Someone’s tryin
My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection 211: Secrets And Suitcase
EVA’S POVThe floor felt cold against my legs, grounding me in the oppressive silence. My chest heaved, but I couldn’t fill my lungs. Fear clawed at me, digging deeper with every second. My hands trembled, my fingers numb as if I’d been gripping ice for hours.How long could I keep running? Every escape route seemed to collapse the moment I thought of it. Doors slammed shut before I even reached for the handle. And the pack...their rules, their suffocating watchfulness—they were closing in. My throat tightened. Was there even a way out?The suitcase at my side felt impossibly heavy as I hauled it upright. The weight wasn’t just in the fabric or the few belongings I’d managed to shove in. It was the memories. The questions I couldn’t shake. It was Vivian—her face, her voice. The way her laugh used to light up a room. The way her death had shattered everything.I stood up slowly, dragging the suitcase with me. It felt heavier now, as if the very weight of it mocked my attempts to escape
My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection 210: Flight Fright
EVA’S POVThe drive home was a haze of headlights and shadows, my thoughts a chaotic swirl refusing to settle. Elijah didn’t kill Vivian—I knew that in my bones. But if it wasn’t him, then who? The thought sent icy fingers crawling up my spine. Someone out there knew too much. Someone was watching, waiting. And they weren’t done yet.My hands gripped the steering wheel so tightly my fingers throbbed, but the pain barely registered. Fear gnawed at me, a silent predator with its teeth sunk deep into my chest. Vivian was dead, and if they could kill her, what was stopping them from coming after me? I wasn’t innocent—I was as tangled in this nightmare as anyone else. Maybe even more.When I finally pulled into my driveway, the familiar sight of my house didn’t bring the comfort it once had. The front porch seemed strange, darker. Every creak of the trees in the wind felt like a warning. My pulse thundered as I scanned the street, the yards, the empty windows of the neighboring houses. Was
My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection 209: Puppets And Panic
ELIJAH’S POVEva’s eyes flickered around the room, wild and restless, like a bird caught in a cage. Her chest rose and fell with quick, shallow breaths, and her fingers clutched the edge of the table until her knuckles turned white.“What if we can’t figure it out in time?” she whispered, her voice trembling as though it might shatter under its own weight. “What if they come for us before we even know who it is?”I leaned against the desk, feigning a calm I didn’t feel. My stomach churned with unease, a dull ache radiating through my ribs, but I kept my voice steady.“That’s not going to happen,” I said, though the certainty in my words felt borrowed, hollow. “We’ve survived worse, Eva. We’ll survive this. But we can’t falter. Not now.”Her laugh was sharp and brittle, cutting through the room like broken glass. She raked a hand through her disheveled hair, her movements jerky with frustration.“Worse than this? Are you kidding me, Elijah? Vivian is dead. Do you get that? Dead. And wh
My Mate's Betrayal And Rejection 208: Beat Me To It
Elijah’s POVI paced the office, my shoes scuffing the worn hardwood, my chest tight with unease. Every second stretched thin as the chaos from last night churned through my mind like a relentless storm.Vivian.Her name clung to my thoughts, heavy and unsettling. Her death wasn’t surprising—I’d predicted it, even counted on it—but it felt wrong. Like a picture slightly askew. Someone else was moving pieces on the board, and the thought made my gut twist.I stopped mid-step, running a hand through my hair as the question gnawed at me. I had planned for disruptions, but this—this was different. The timing was too perfect. Or maybe… too convenient.Inhaling deeply, I pressed my hands against the desk. The cool wood steadied me, but my thoughts wouldn’t follow suit. I couldn’t shake the sense that I was being played.A sharp, hurried knock came at the door, and before I could respond, it flew open. Eva stood there, breathing hard, her red hair wild as if she’d run through a storm to get
