I woke up in a cold and dark room, my body felt like its been hit by a 100-tonne truck. I tried cradling my head, but my arms were restrained by chains. I hissed when I felt the rusted metal touch my sensitive skin.
“Are you finally awake, bitch?” I heard Norman say, followed by the room being illuminated by a small orange light. It flickered every now and then, darkening the atmosphere.
I squinted my eyes to adjust to the light, and I finally saw that I was in the dungeons. Adjacent to me was my frail mom and a sobbing Maria.
“Mom! Maria!” I tried reaching out to them, but it was of no use. I only incurred more cuts and bruises on my wrist. Forgetting the pain, I tried to break free. However, that was clearly impossible.
“Don’t hurt yourself, sweetheart,” my mother said in the soft voice that she always had.
I looked at them and couldn’t help but feel tears falling from my eyes. “I&

Dalton“Have you ever heard of second-chance mates?”Their eyes widened in surprise. “I’ve only heard of it on TV or in fantasy books! But, I’ve never encountered second-chance mates in real life,” Devyn said in disbelief. “To think that you would actually have a second-chance mate is insane!”“Do second-chance mates even exist?” Hera asked with an awestruck look.I looked down on the ground. “Yeah. I almost couldn’t believe it when I found out myself. I don’t think she knows herself.”Hera went closer to me and patted me on the back. “Don’t worry, uncle Dalton. We’ll help you find her.”I raked my hands through my hair and bit my lips. “I just don’t know where to start.”“Hey,” River nudged his shoulders. “Where has your optimism gone? We’ll be able to find her. From my stay here, I&rsq

MATURE CONTENT AHEAD If you are a minor or if you are not comfortable with this type of content, please skip to Chapter 53. Third Person’s POV Hera, feeling a surge of confidence, circled her arms around Arlo’s neck and looked up to him with seductive eyes. “Who told you to hold back?” Arlo was speechless. Where did her sweet mate find the courage to be this provocative? Feeling helpless, he fell on top of her body and groaned into her neck, sending vibrations down Hera’s body. “You’re driving me crazy, baby.” Just as he said those words, he gripped Hera’s head tightly and pressed his lips against hers, simultaneously diving his tongue deep into her mouth, blocking the response that Hera was about to say. “Hmm...Haaa,” Hera only managed to breathe in a sliver of oxygen before her lips were once again claimed by Arlo. She knew that

Hera Arlo’s handsome face was the very first thing I saw the moment I woke up. I smiled and snuggled deeper into his neck. I sighed in contentment as I felt the warmth from his body radiating through mine. He tightened his grip on me and sniffed my hair. I giggled as his hot breath tickled my scalp. “Stop,” I said, pushing him away. “I wasn’t able to wash up last night,” I groggily said. He kissed my cheek. “I wiped you down, though. You passed out after the third round, so I went to the bathroom and wiped you with a warm towel.” I smiled and looked up at him with bright eyes. “So, you’ve also studied about aftercare, huh? Up to this moment, I’m still doubtful if this is your first time,” I said, narrowing my eyes. He chuckled and ruffled my hair. “How many times do I have to tell you? Who could I have had sex with aside from you? I’ve never been in a relationship before,” he said softly. I felt an indescribable feeling go through my b

Hera“Hera, I am your father,” he said in an overly-serious voice.I scoffed in disbelief. “Where the hell are you going with this? Why are you suddenly quoting the movie?”“You see...I’m not just quoting the movie. I’m being serious, child.”I frowned and stayed silent for a while. Since I couldn’t respond, Arlo responded for me.“Norman, or whoever the fuck you are, stop spewing out nonsense and tell us where you are so we could fucking kill you,” he said through clenched teeth.Norman exaggeratedly gasped. “Oh my! The rest of the family is also here. What a pleasant surprise! Are Kairo and Emery there? Tell them that I’ve missed them.”Kairo slammed his fist on the table. “What the hell do you really want from us, Norman? Haven’t you learned your lesson twenty years ago?” He said impatiently.“Oh, I still think a
My Rival, My Mate Chapter 55: The Child
Ella It's been three days since I’ve been stuck here, without any proper food or clean water. My throat is so parched that my voice had become huskier for the past few days. My mother and Maria aren’t in any better shape, though. However, at least, they were given one meal a day. I’ve only eaten what they threw in my cell since Norman decided to punish me by not giving me anything at all. For the last three days, majority of my mind has been taken up by Dalton. It would be a lie if I said that I didn’t hope to see him again. But, this is for the better. It’s best that we live our separate lives. I don’t want to drag him into this shitty life I have. I don’t want him to face a vile being like Norman. Speak of the devil—Norman came into the room with a bright smile on his face. He clapped his hands and went in front of my cell. I clicked my tongue and turned away from him. Seeing his face just fucking ruined my day. “Oh, my dear Ella! Why are you in suc

Ella“Oh god,” my mother paced back and forth. “You haven’t been eating well for the past three days! The environment and ventilation are also horrible here. We must get you out of here as soon as possible to keep the baby safe,” she said in a hasty voice.I, on the other hand, stood frozen on my spot, not being able to believe what I had just heard. Did she just say what I think she said? I’m pregnant?Maria smiled in glee. She patted me on the back. “I’m so happy for you, Ella! You’ve always wanted to have a family. Now, we can have your child play with Eli once they grow up…I hope,” she said the last two words softly.I turned to my mom and held her hands. “Maybe you made a mistake, mom. It could just be because I haven’t been eating for the past few days that you’ve found some abnormalities in my stomach. Check again,” I urged her.She sighed and held ont

Arlo “Good job, my spy,” he said, looking behind me. I froze as I felt a presence behind my back. I bit my lips as I heard the familiar sound of his footsteps nearing where we were. Fuck. I could have never expected this. I turned around and saw him smugly walking over to where we were. He had his hands in his pocket, and no signs of remorse were shown on his face. My eyes narrowed as he stopped in front of us. “Anderson,” I muttered under my breath. He nonchalantly waved at me and smiled. “How’s it going, Alpha Arlo?” All of us stood frozen, shocked by his unexpected betrayal. He went next to Norman and crossed his arms in front of his chest. He looked at our shocked faces and smirked. “You never expected for this to happen, huh?” “How could you do this?” I asked, disappointment evident in my voice. He scoffed. “Don’t be so surprised, Arlo. You had this coming.” Devyn growled at my side. Since uncle Dalton, who was the

Dalton“Let me go! Hera! I need Hera!” Arlo lashed out while I held him back. His eyes are bloodshot, and it seems like he has lost his sanity. He was slowly escaping from my grip, so I called for the others to help me.“Fuck. A little bit of help,” I squeezed out as I tried holding him back with all of my strength. River and Ella quickly went to my side and restrained Arlo’s arms.“Arlo! Calm the fuck down!” I shouted at him, hoping that he would stop with all of this ruckus.I really thought that we would be facing our end just a couple of moments ago. When we were surrounded by about five hundred soldiers, I had already accepted our fate, but Hera came in to save us at the last moment. If it weren’t for her,

Third Person’s Point of View It was another busy day in the Blood Shadow pack (what’s new), and everyone was running around, trying to do some last-minute touches before the commencement of Rivalee’s and Belluci’s first birthday party. In the midst of the bustling people, there stood two gentlemen on the stairway, observing a large portrait hung over the wall. “It’s up again, huh?” River asked. Dalton placed his hand under his chin. “Yes. How many times has it been? 12? 13 times since it has been replaced?” River nodded his head. “Yeah. I can’t believe Kairo always manages to hang it again after Arlo already destroyed each and every portrait.” “Well, that’s one thing about Kairo—he never gives up.” Ella, seeing the two idling idiots standing on the stairway, stomped over to where they were with crossed arms. “Stop looking at Kairo and Arlo’s ballet portrait and go to the front gate to greet the guests.

Third Person's Point of View"Dad, please. We haven't been on a date for like...ten months? Don't you think we deserve it?"Kairo merely glanced at his son before continuing to pack his back for the upcoming fishing trip that he was going to have with his friends."That's normal, son. When your mother and I had Laura, we didn't go on dates until she turned four.""That's a lie," Arlo retorted. "I clearly remember grandma Lily telling me that she'd often take care of Laura just so you and mom could go on dates."Kairo scratched the back of his head. "Well, can your date wait another month or so? I have fishing trips booked every weekend of the month."Arlo groaned. "We can't, dad! We'll be busy with Rivalee's and Belluci's joint birthday party by then! And you're going out fishing once again? Who are you even going with? Unce Dalton hasn't been fishing since Belluci's birth!""Well, it's his fault for having a baby so late. I'm g
My Rival, My Mate Special Chapter: The Baby Names
Third Person’s Point of ViewThey thought that there would only be peaceful days from now on—as Dalton and Arlo would be more focused on their children that they wouldn’t even have any time to ensue chaos. However, there was still one problem that they had to solve—the baby names.The two couples, along with River, Devyn, Emery, and Kairo, were seated on the living room couch, conversing about the topic of baby names.“I thought you’ve already decided on something during your term,” Emery said.“Yeah,” Ella said. “But Dalton thought that our little bean was going to be a girl and named him Princess.”“Then maybe you can just call him Prince,” Emery suggested.“That’s what I said!” Dalton exclaimed.“I feel like it’s too typical. And we’re not a kingdom, we’re a pack,” she defended.

The two women groaned in pain as they were carried down the stairs.The moment they got down to the living room, they saw their two husbands hugging each other."Thank you for saving my life, Arlo. Although, I would have totally won the competition if you just let me be."Arlo harshly patted his uncle's back, causing him to cough out. "I should have just let you choke to death."Devyn cleared his throat, causing the two men to look at them. Their eyes widened in surprise, and they rushed over to where they were when they saw their wives being carried by Devyn and River."Wh—What happened? Did you get hurt?" Arlo asked Hera."Love, did something happen?" Dalton asked his wife.Hera wanted to respond, but she was in too much pain that she couldn't even utter one word.Thankfully, Ella, who has
My Rival, My Mate Special Chapter: The Daddy Discourse pt.1
Third Person's Point of ViewThe Blood Shadow pack has never had a peaceful day after they discovered that both Ella and Hera are pregnant. Their husbands made it a pact to overdo each other in every aspect when taking care of their respective wives. From buying baby clothes to painting the nursery rooms and even down to the number of kicks that their babies have, the two men fought with pride.Even today, they were competing to see who could peel the most apples for their mates. Currently, they had a tower of sliced apples in front of them.Their wives, unbeknownst to the war happening in the kitchen, were happily conversing on the couch while watching a cartoon show."How far are you in the term right now?" Hera asked.Ella groaned. "I'm 42 weeks in right now. I'm already two weeks late to my delivery date, and by this time, I just want to give birth to this stubborn baby.""How about you?" she asked."

Third Person's Point of View"Do you think Hera's been acting weird these days?" Dalton asked, looking at the newly-wedded woman sitting on the couch and scarfing down on some lettuce.Not salad.Lettuce.Just plain lettuce.River clicked his tongue. "Well, my sister has been weird since birth, but I do agree that she's weirder these days.""Do you think it's because of Arlo? Has Hera finally lost her mind after marrying him? Maybe I should have warned her more about his weird mannerisms before their marriage," Devyn said.Dalton nodded his head in agreement."Are you badmouthing me behind my back?" a voice suddenly interrupted.The three men looked behind them and saw Arlo with his arms crossed, looking at them with raised eyebrows."You're weird. That's why your weirdness has rubbed off onto my sister," River blatantly said.Arlo frowned."There

Third Person's Point of ViewIt was a beautiful morning in the Blood Shadow pack—not a single sign of chaos ensuing. That is until a familiar scream was heard all around the house."WHAT?" Dalton shouted, turning off the television.Ella worriedly looked around the house, afraid that Dalton's scream would wake up the other pack members."Shh, why do you have to shout? I'm just asking you to be the chaperone for Lyra's field trip.""But why?" he whined. "I'm going fishing with Kairo and the boys."Ella clicked her tongue. "You went fishing three days ago, Dalton! Maria invited me out to the town, and it's been a long time since we hung out. Don't you think I also deserve to go out of the house?""Would that be okay, though? Won't you get tired considering that you're pregnant?"Ella sighed and crossed her arms together. "Are you assuming that pregnant women can't go out and have fun anymore?"His e
My Rival, My Mate Special Chapter: The Surprise Party
Third Person's View The Blood Shadow pack has had a busy year. From Dalton and Ella's marriage to Hera and Arlo's, and now it was the birthday of the pack's most treasured child—Lyra. Each member was assigned a certain task. Some were assigned to cook food, the others with decorating the interior of the house, while others were just idle onlookers waiting for a task to be assigned to them. Dalton, on the other hand, was given the most important task of all—distracting Lyra while all the preparations were still coming through. You might be wondering why the pack needs to distract an incoming five-year-old on her birthday party, but Lyra has become much smarter than they think—maybe even smarter than Dalton. She picks up on things very easily, and even on her last birthday, she found her birthday presents before people could give them to her. Before the preparations commenced, Dalton woke Lyra up. To his surprise, Lyra was already up, leanin

Third Person's Point of ViewNot even a month after Dalton and Ella’s marriage had passed when Arlo and Hera announced that they were planning on getting married. Emery, feeling a fiery passion in her heart, took the initiative to plan everything regarding the wedding. With her supernatural powers combined with her unwavering will, she was able to finish the preparations in just one month. And today, the most awaited event finally came.Hera and Arlo are currently separated in two rooms. They haven't seen each other for two days now because Emery planned a Bachelor and Bachelorette party for each of them. Arlo whined and groaned to his mother for arranging the party because he couldn't bear not seeing Hera on the days leading to their marriage.Arlo spent the entire night thinking of his mate and wishing that she was by his side. Hera, on the other hand, was having the time of her life. They went to an exclusive resort where they just drank and dance
