Zander's POV
"Hey, wait...
Wait for a minute.
If not a call then you can at least tell me your name"
I hurriedly typed but she was gone. The green dot on the side of her username which indicated her activeness faded away. She really was gone and I could not not know about her anything.
"She was my mate!" I blinked my eyes looking at her chats.
I didn't want to believe but it has to be her coz the way she talked to me, sounding forever excited and happy with her flirty chats, I bet it was her. I had been mad ever since her smell got to me. I swore on never thinking about her until today.
She was here talking to me endlessly. I hate myself for acting so eager and foolish, I just can't help though! Zack needed to know more about him. Me too. No matter how much I claimed to despise her since that night, she is still my mate. And I can't draw her away wit
39We have ultimately, after joking around and pulling legs of some students, came to our next class in the time table— environmental studies.It is not your typical environmental studies focusing on pollution, global warming etc. The Environmental Studies in our dimension is different. Here, we learn how to adapt the environment and its changes along with the different seasons. In this lecture we are taught how to learn about the seasons while we are in extreme conditions. In short, with the help of this subject, we are made aware of how environment influences a wolf's factor."So students, today we will be studying about change in the lifestyle of a wolf in the environment over the gone hundreds of decades. Earlier, some thousands of years ago, when there were no technology and artificial intelligence wolves had a lot to face. From a heat cycle to transforming into a wolf during full moon, a lot has evolved over these years...
40“You are going to see the beta’s daughter right?” Mr. Stark asked Reyne who was busy putting on her shoes.She looked pretty in black jeans and white fit full sleeved top. Her hair was done into a pony and curled from the tips. There was some natural shimmer adoring her face while glossy red lip balm gave her mouth an appealing appearance.She smiled at her father as she got up on her legs and grabbed one of the two hands of her backpack, “Yes, dad. I am taking Milan to the fair and then to the supermarket and buying her some candies.” Her father gave her an understanding expression with a nod of head.He was loving the way his daughter was socializing with the members of this pack. Though he was slightly disappointed that she begged on not joining the school now. She asked for some time.After that day when they
41 "You liked the ride, Milan?" Her bobbing head stole Reyne's heart. This girl was too precious. Her smile, cute antics and silly yet sweet questions kept her bewilderment alive throughout their 'girls day out'. They relished some pizza and sweet candies, enjoyed some amazing rides and drank some chilled juice with crushed ice, and now they were enjoying ice lollies. "Doll, I want to go home." Her eyes looked dizzy and face wary. She was tired. She was a little baby and being out for the entire day since the afternoon to the evening was definitely exhausting. Reyne glanced at her heavy lashes that were batting in sleep while she played with her ice lolly. "Okay, let's finish this then we will head back to your house." Reyne pinched her little nose with a smile. She cherished Milan's small mouth sucking her strawberry flavored ice candy. She can't help her laughs as the little girl looked too adorable with her mouth spreading red with strawberry stain. She was eating less and pai
42My head hurts as if it has been hammered badly. My entire body felt paralyzed. I tried to move my hands but failed as they wouldn't rise up. I heard noises around me. Noises of Milan's weeping as the very statement uttered in that dreadful voice replayed in my head, fresh and clear."Come on, let's go. We wanted the beta's daughter, so we got her. Let this whore die here."Suddenly I realized what had happened to me and Milan, and I shot open my eyes, panting heavily. "Dad???" I looked at my side only to find my father sitting there with a pallid face."Reyne?" He sniffed as though he was trying not to cry and the next moment he pulled me in his arms, and burst into a shit of tears. "Reyne, my daughter! Are you... Are you okay? Does that hurt."I couldn't breathe because of his hard hug. I battled in order to resist his bone crushing hug until he left me, and then let out a deep sigh feelin
43Zander's POVSomebody behead me!!!That was the only statement which I have been muttering in my mouth ever since I left my house."Zane, you want an ice cream cone too?" Clarke was taking everyone's order as we sat in a cozy 'only for adults' restobar.I was already pumped up in terms of aggression and his inquiry only fueled it more, "Fuck your asshole with the same ice cream cone." I said between my grinding teeth while he shockingly stared at me being surprised by my outburst."What the bloody hell...." He was surprised. "You go fuck your plastic bitch rather!" He snapped back at me and moved further with Yeoman to get everyone's order.I don't know why but I felt frustrated. I didn't want to come to this day out with my friends. They forcibly dragged me here. Not only that, they were also forcing me to eat when I barely felt any appetite.
44He was shaken to the core! His eyes watered as Zander recklessly halted his car and came out of it in a hurry. His heart palpitated, moving up and down while the thought of his little sister trembled him."Mom!!!" With a loud push of his shoulder, he opened the door and entered inside Ryley's house as it was there where everyone was gathered.He looked at the faces of the alpha, a strange face he didn't have to guess has to be the new member of the pack, Mr. Hari Stark, the Gamma, and eventually stopped his eyes on his father's. "Dad, Milan?" He could not control his emotions.They sat fresh on his cheeks, his lips moving in sheer dread as he impatiently stared at his father's face. He was so focused on him that he nearly failed to notice the sweet fragrance he had smelled twice earlier! The smell that belonged to his mate.'Zane, she is here! Zane, our mate. She is
45His muscles tightened and eyes fixated with her face. She seemed equally petrified. However, the terror staying crimson on her cheeks along with sweat beads shone more as her eyes just stayed stilled. In between the daze crossing his facade, Zander frowned a little because her head was gauzed with a bandaged around her forehead.Zander could not decide whether she was alive or a mannequin. Even her breaths have stuck in her breaths and she refrained herself from making any move. He didn't divert his gaze from her eyes yet he can see her lips has started breaking the frozen spell she was bound into.He noticed nothing but her dark dark blue irises, staring at him without a blink from behind a layer of tears lingering over her lower lashes."Reyne," Wendy pushed Zander aside and came to face her.She furiously grabbed Reyne by the collarless fabric of her top and yanked unti
46He saw the tears swimming in her eyes and no matter how much he hated, he cared for them. Her reddened eyes and flushed face made him hiss in vex. They made him feel miserable not because she was that frustrating mate of his who left no chance to piss him off, but because she acted as if she was to blame.Indeed it was her who got his sister abducted yet Zander could not hold her wrong.How can he accuse her when they knew a threat was lingering around for the cubs of the pack? Yeah, they had to be the abductors from the same kidnapping troop who kidnapped several dozens of cubs from the neighbouring packs for trafficking and smuggling. And in their pack, they targeted the beta's daughter which was unfortunately the first kidnapping from their pack.They knew they were coming but didn't know that they would initiate it with the beta's daughter!The biggest foul move
(Last chapter) Five days later, In the lounge of the hospital beside the reception desk, Valen stood with her phone in one of her hands and a package in the other. She stomped her foot impatiently as she glanced at a recently received message, seething in vexation. 'Stuck in the traffic!' "Oh, moon goddess! Why do you have to mate me with such a dumb f*ck bastard." She cried— like she was a wolf, with a baby face and pout she was adored for. Then another message appeared on her screen that turned her facial expressions even sour and bitter. 'A bloody red lory has blocked my way. It's not moving further, not letting me do so.' "Oh Jesus, I will kill you, Ryley Shine." Valen shrieked, this time like a human, earning amusing looks from the passers-by and the watchman who was sitting across a huge television, keeping
117 "Tell me, I am on time." He said amidst his uneven respiration as he stood with his torso bent forward and hands resting on his knees, working on stabilizing his breathing. His beta entered the room behind him, "You are, Ryan." "How long has he been dead for?" Alpha Ryan asked coming to his full height even though his breathing had not braced up. He discerned the clueless faces of Zander's kith and kin waiting for an answer. When none came, his beta stepped next to him and disclosed, "Less than twenty-four hours. We still have time— but not much!" "Great. That's enough time." Alpha Ryan expressed his delight at his beta's reply with a clap of hands as the others gawked at him. Their doubtfully teary eyes stayed affixed on his face as he, standing as an odd one out, smiled in the whole room.
116A storm of grief, they never anticipated, knocked their senses down.Anyone and everyone, who walked inside the ward Zander's corpse was placed in, returned with an expressionless face. He was just too young to die. Nobody believed their eyes when they walked in, but when they returned, they realized it was indeed true.His parents and friends stayed lined up by the side of the wall adjacent to his ward's door, weeping.His father had awoken with a smile, hoping to see the others safe within the boundaries of their pack- back in their sweet home. But the news he was dawned with, trembled his very core, muting him for several times before his wife broke into his ward.They held each other in a forlorn embrace and shared their pain. Their first child, their son... Was gone.The doctors warned him not to leave the bed yet Mr. Brown overstepped thei
115"Noooooo! Zander, my son.. He Can't... He can't die!" Mrs. Brown melted to the ground, her body loosely flattened, wailing deeply on top of her voice."C-control yourself, Mrs. Brown. You..." Ryley, who had been attempting to handle her, himself felt his throat choke as tears blurred his vision.The news that they received was itself so shaking and bewildering that none of them was ready to believe it. Zander was dead. He died whilst saving his mate. The Paladin Alpha sacrificed his life to save the others.When in the morning the Gamma hastily rushed to woods land after receiving a call of trepidation, all of them prayed for the well-being of all the Alphas and betas who've gone on the rescue mission with Zander.Although the Gamma left in his car, he returned with five ambulances behind him that paused across the hospital gate. It was Ryley who was given a call by doctor Jason to come ov
114“Zane!” his father shrieked, perceiving him wail in discomfort.A big chunk of glass stayed stabbed in his stomach. Blood slipped at his temple given that his head hit against a sharp rock, making the world around him spin.He did not get a second to steady himself as the ifrit galloped near him. He lifted Zander by his neck, his hold tightening around it. The wisp sound of his slow squeezing at zander’s neck had his father roar manically while he plunged at the demon, turning into his wolf.His canines pierced through the shoulder of the arm that was clasping Zander in his hold, and caused him to loosen his grip. Zander plummeted at the ifrit’s feet coughing and gasping for air.“He was dead, wasn’t he?” there was a faint tremor in alpha Hercules’ tone.Nobody had any answer except for shocking gasps and he
113Satisfaction. It was a kind of satisfaction he never derived before. Not from bullying or hurting people. It can only be derived through killing... Killing the enemy.His chest swelled in pleasure and eyes brightened. The scent of Reyne stayed in his breaths. The air held her fragrance, which his lungs gladly sucked in.Those alphas waiting out there said that they would leave as soon as they found Reyne— without creating any scene, but he couldn't stop. He had to kill him. Kill them all. They tortured his Reyne. They threatened their kind. And hunters... He killed him half right when he mentioned them.But it was over. Zane killed them here and the doppelgangers killed his psycho wife there.He smiled to himself as he rushed ahead. He just wanted to get to his Reyne and hold her tight. His crawl was quick. Zane was moving further steadily until— he witn
112She was threatened to not cry as it would ruin her make-up. Reyne couldn't keep up with their threats though. With the grief of her father's death weighing down on her chest, she sat in the cage wearing nothing but a flimsy tight one piece suit that covered her from knuckle to neck.She was told they would come to take her out on the stage. She was supposed to end the show, using her shape-shifting technique as the show stopping demonstration. Earlier she tried to refuse and what they did was whip her in the back. They scared her to do even worse that she easily gave up.Worse was that they put her in a cage. A real freaking cage as though she was an animal. She was not an animal. Damn it. She was an extraordinary creation. That's all. Who was going to explain it to the humans notwithstanding.Now Reyne could apprehend the meaning of her father's words, that he used to say all this while. Thi
111With his mouth pressing at hers, Zander looked around the room with his peripheral vision. It was a vast area. As far as he can see, there were doors and huge corridors.He assumed he would note the region in his mind during the kiss, and go away after knocking her down. But surprisingly, he didn't know what to do.His inside curled. The thought of Reyne made a wild current of dissatisfaction run down his spine. Still, he continued moving his mouth on her as he guided his hands around her waist.Just as heat of pleasure wormed within her, she eased down. The heat helped loosen her tight muscles and seize her trembling. Finally when Zander recognized she would not backfire his plan of occupying her sexually, he parted and stared in her eyes with a fake smirk."I've been wanting to do that since I saw you outside the theatre. You are hot!" She tilted her head back and
110A physical flash and burn shocked Zander to the core with its all-encompassing depth and strength and power as he hissed in exasperation at the view across from him.They were in the theatre where the Mad Magician's magic show was flaring in full swing. All the werewolves including himself were astonished observing the crowd that had gathered to see his show. Oh no, it was not because he was showing anything extraordinary as for now, but because of the slogan he had used in the advertisement regarding shape-shifting demonstration which was going to happen toward the end of the show, as a show stopping magic demonstration.In that instant, every other thought and emotion had ceased to exist except for a cascade of urgent directives to kill that bastard of a man he watched standing in the middle of the stage, showing some magic trick of fire through a woman."That's Phoebe Augusti
