Chapter 4 : She is Mine

Liam’s Pov

A loud rap of knuckles against wood yanked me from my mind. One of my men knocked on the door, face etched tightly.

"Liam, it's Cara. Her cousin and those guys are causing her trouble again."

I felt rage jump through me like a live current. "And?"

The warrior shifted uneasily. "As usual, she doesn’t hit back."

I slapped the book closed.

I knew Cara was strong. We’d faced each other so many times in the battle. Of course, I know she could kick those bastards ass. But this is her choice

“Go there. Right now,” Boris demanded. “Stop this nonsense.”

I exhaled sharply, already on my feet. “I’m going. I'll handle it myself."

By the time I arrived, Mateo and his pack of bastards were already gone.

Her lower lip was smeared with blood, bruises already discoloring along her arms.

I narrowed my eyes.

She was healing.

Slow.

On purpose.

Smart girl. She was concealing what she was by this way.

Boris growled at the sight of her wounds, his rage echoing through me like a storm.

“They hurt her.” His voice was a low snarl in my head. “I want to rip them apart.”

I clenched my fists, forcing down my own fury.

“She bleeds, and you stand still?” Boris snapped. “She is ours.”

She didn't need my help.

But that didn't mean I wasn't going to give it.

I found Mateo and his friends without too much effort. They just came out of a bar.

They didn't even see me coming.

I didn't give the first guy time to react before I slammed him into the wall.

Mateo's eyes went wide. “Li… Liam”

I grabbed him by the collar and yanked him forward. "Which paw of yours hit her?" My voice was deadly calm.

"I—I didn't—“

I twisted his arm back, and he screamed. One of his friends took a step forward. I turned my glare on him, and he immediately backed down. Cowards.

"Who else touched her?" I asked.

Mateo whimpered. "We didn't do anything"

I snapped his wrist.

He howled in pain, clutching his arm as he crumpled to the ground.

The others did nothing but stand frozen, silent with fear.

I crouched, tugging on his chin so he was forced to stare at me. "You fell down the stairs. That is all that happened. Do you understand?"

He nodded frantically.

"Good."

I straightened, looking toward the rest.

Nobody moved a muscle.

I knew she could handle it all alone

But one thing changed ; she already had me, whether she liked that or not.

    Chapter 5 Cara's POV By the time I made it home, the ache was gone, but the bruises still coloured my skin. I'd retarded my healing, made it appear as if I wasn't healing as fast as I ought to. It was needed. Uncle took one look. "What happened?" he asked, frowning, his eyes roaming the bruises on my arms. "Training," I said, pushing past him toward the kitchen. "It will heal soon” Uncle let out a sharp exhalation. I began fiddling with the kettle, pretending that I hadn't heard the disappointment in his voice. We had this same conversation every time. He knew what was going on. But he also knew why I never fought back. Long after, he finally spoke. "You should rest." Instead, I pulled out the rent money that I had set aside and placed it on the table. "At least take this.” He shook his head almost immediately. "No." "I could not go see your father before he died," he cut me off, his voice low and laden. "I gave in. I betrayed him and Alpha Robert " He turned

I glanced sideways at the influential family of Alphas; Alpha Marcus stood with another Alpha and his daughter, adding to the burden of this moment. It was choking: the eyes of all outside, their expectations so thick in the air. Liam stood tall upon the stage, his voice strong as he addressed the crowd. “Shadow wood pack and Barry pack have taken care of each other's backs for a while, and now it is time to make it official. We will sign the mutual protection contract" he said in a firm, clear voice. The Alpha of the Barry Pack, with his entourage, had also looked quite shocked by this announcement Liam continued, ignoring the growing awkwardness. "And now, it is an honor to have you all here, witnessing the bond that will strengthen our packs," he said, eyes scanning the room with that usual unshakeable calm. “And I want t

I knew this day would come, but I still froze for a moment. Now, I just had to let him take out his anger on me. “You did this without telling me” The crack of the whip had seared across my back, I took my father’s wrath in Silence. “You didn't ask me," he growled in a low tone . "Why?” When the sound of the whip stopped, he nodded for me to get up. "Explain yourself.". I straightened, meeting his gaze without the slightest problem. What my father wants are: power, control, expansion. It ran in the blood, after all. So it's just a matter of making me mating Cara conform to what he wants “Father, I know you want to take more land and control the packs around us,” I said, keeping my voice calm. “But the bigger we get, the harder it is to handle everything. We’ve already felt the pressure. You migh

    Chapter 8 Liam’s POV Cara was waiting for me, her arms crossed tightly over her chest, her eyes narrowing with confusion. “You better give me a reasonable explanation” I met her gaze, trying to keep my expression neutral. “I told you I am gonna have the mating ceremony today, right?” She huffed, her brow furrowing deeper. “Yeah, of course. with the daughter of Barry pack's Alpha.” I took a step closer, my eyes searching hers for understanding. “I did not say that. I just told you I am going to have my mating ceremony.” And You are my mate, of course. I would choose you” She opened her mouth, but she didn't seem to know how to talk me back, and I took her by hand before she could say any word of refusal. I took Cara to dinner with my family. As soon as we entered the dining hall, the air felt heavy. The large chandelier above lit up the long table, but it didn’t make the atmosphere any warmer. The only sounds were the soft clinking of silverware and the faint crackling of

    Chapter Nine : Pieces Of Memory Cara’s Pov The next morning, I slowly opened my eyes. I was in a new room. The room was nicely decorated with soft, yellow light coming in through the big windows. My head hurt with a dull pain, reminding me of what happened the night before. Pieces of memories started coming back to me - the sound of laughing, glasses clinking, and Liam's lips touching mine. Did we really kiss, or was I dreaming? As I tried to sit up, someone knocked softly on the door. "Good morning," a quiet voice said. The door opened, and a maid came in with a tray of breakfast food. The smell of fresh coffee and baked goods filled the air, making me feel a little better. “Where am I?” I asked, confused. “You drank too much last night,” she explained. “Liam brought you here and he slept in the guest room.” Embarrassed, I ask"Where is Liam?" The maid looked up and smiled. "Liam is at the training grounds, miss. He's practicing with the others." The maid gave me directions,

He glanced at Sophia and sighed. “I’ll train with you when I get back.” Sophia let out an irritated sigh, tossing her hair over her shoulder. “That’s not fair. You always put other things first. I need to train, Liam. If you’re not going to help me, someone else should Liam finally turned to her, his brows furrowed. “I said I’d train with you when I return, Sophia. It’s just one day.

Look everywhere!” , Everyone immediately followed my orders, searching the entire area. Minutes turned into hours, and the more time passed, the more worried I became. My breathing was heavy, and sweat dripped down my face, but I kept searching. I refused to stop. Just then, I saw Cara. She was floating, holding onto a piece of driftwood. Her body looked weak, her arms barely gripping the wood. I ran to the river and dove in. The water was so cold, but I didn’t care. All that mattered to me was getting her before it was too late I lifted Cara gently from the ground and into my arms. The water was freezing cold, and I could tell Cara's body shivered with the cold. I wrapped her as tightly as possible in my arms, trying to warm her. I swung around to return to the River, I put her down on the sh

I was sleeping in and out, my mind was a mess, and whenever I attempted to focus, it was like my brain could not keep pace with my body. I was so tired, like I had been up for days.I could feel something warm and soft against my cheek. It felt soft, like a hand caressing against my skin. I did not know who it was at first, but the sensation felt familiar and comforting. The warmth surrounded me, and while I wanted to know more, I could not fully open my eyes. I could barely keep them open, yet I knew that there was someone beside me.I tried to open my eyes wider, but nothing was clear. It took several tries, but I could see a little better at last. And I saw Liam, sitting next to my bed. His face was calm, but his eyes—his eyes were brimming with something I couldn't identify. Was it concern?His face eased when he saw me looking at him.I wanted to ask him what had happened, b

She wasn't merely giving birth to a baby. She was giving birth to a plan. A deception.The pack doctor was already with her. So were two nurses. I had called them when I had found her in her bed earlier, soaked in blood and pain. I couldn't leave her, not even if I wished to.Even if she hated me… even if she wished to kill me.Damon stood by me, silently. Arms crossed, jaw clenched. He'd hardly said anything since we'd gotten there. Only the soft kiss on my cheek as he came in, as if the soft words in my ear had required no words at all: You're the one I chose."She's going to push," the doctor yelled out beyond the open door.We heard it all.

    Chapter 107: His Eyes Only Saw Me(Sophia's POV)I felt the tension in the air as Damon and I were sitting in our room. It had been weeks since all the drama with Cara went down. The tension was gone now, though, and it gave me hope. Damon, my mate, was now sitting next to me, and I didn't feel lost anymore. It had been hard—so hard to even think of what we’d been through. But now, in this moment, it felt like everything was going to be okay.I rested my head on his shoulder while we conversed in whispers, sharing little smiles and soft giggles. I had missed this. I had missed him. The manner in which he set everything right. When he was with me, it was like nothing else mattered. No one else. Just him and I.And then we heard it—a screeching scream that coursed through the house. My heart jumped."Did you hear that?" I looked up at Damon, but I didn't have to get out the rest of the sentence. He was already on his feet, his face hardening with alarm. He moved quickly towards the door

There was no way I was going to let Damon get away from me. I had tried everything, but nothing seemed to get him back into my life, not in the way I wanted. But now, I had a perfect plan. A way to get him to look at me in a different way.I took a deep breath, scanning the bathroom. It was quiet. Too quiet. I had to make a scene, something that would get Damon's attention and demonstrate to him how much he needed me.What was I going to do?I looked down at the floor in an instant, my head spinning. And then I had it. A snake. A snake, yes. It would be ideal. I could pretend there was a snake in the bathroom, and Damon would run to my aid. I could scream, bolt out, and he would rescue me, would notice me, would care about me. It was ideal.I could already imagine it in my mind's eye: Damon bursting in, his eyes filled with concern, s

    Chapter 105: Cara's POV – The Unexpected SightI had been pacing around the packhouse, trying to cool my head. It had been days since I'd spoken with Damon. Ever since the evening he'd betrayed me, I couldn't seem to handle him. And now, even Sophia, she wasn't even staring at me in the same way anymore. There was tension among us all.But that was something to worry about another time. There was something that worried me much more. I had to keep Damon away from Sophia. I had to tear them apart, destroy what was between them. That was my plan. That was my plan since the first time I'd seen them together, but deep within me lay something that had it set upon making it become a reality.I returned towards the living room, the part of the packhouse where individuals typically gather. But when I drew near, I stopped. I overheard the laughter and became frozen.I did not anticipate this. Not at all.I looked out the window, and there they were. Damon and Sophia. Sitting together. Laughing.

But I did.I never planned on sleeping with Damon again, but these…It just escaped me.And then… I did something. I did it in order not to be disposed of by Damon.

I had my knees curled up tight against my chest and cried silently.I did not want anyone to see me. My heart felt like a stone. I thought I could be strong. I thought not speaking to Damon would hurt less. But no… it hurt worse. I couldn't get him out of my head. I couldn't get his voice out of my head, apologizing… telling me he still loved me.But how do you say I love you to someone and then go to bed with somebody else?I wiped away my tears in a hurry when I heard footsteps. I was praying that it was Lucas. He had stopped by to check on me earlier, but I told him I needed to be alone. I didn't want anyone. I wanted peace.But when I turned around…It was Cara.I frowned and looked away immediately. I did not wish to gaze at her. I did not wish to hear her voice. But she did not mind.

    Chapter 101Damon's POVI could feel the weight of the silence hanging in the air. The tension between Sophia and me had been mounting for days now, and despite how much I fought it, it seemed like the distance between us continued to widen. The things I'd shared with her, the truth about what transpired with Cara—it was just too much for her to process. I had expected her to be furious, but I could never imagine that it would be like she was escaping me, step by step.I stumbled through the packhouse, my feet heavy on the ground, my mind spinning. I hadn't talked to Sophia since I'd told her Cara was dead. Since then, she'd barely even looked at me. When she did, her eyes were full of hurt, betrayal… and something else I couldn't quite pinpoint. She was so far gone, and nothing I said or did seemed able to bring her back.Today, I was compelled to deal with her. I was compelled to make her understand that I loved her. That I didn't want Cara.

I tucked my knees up into my chest and wrapped my arms around them, and had my chin resting on top. I wasn't crying anymore. My eyes were already tender. My heart pounded harder.I hadn't even noticed how long I had been sitting there. Maybe hours. All of it weighed on me.
