last update Last Updated: 2024-01-04 06:49:12

Remus runs for kilometers through the jungle without giving himself a second of rest. He is already exhausted, but both Ragnar and Remus like to push their bodies to the limit, especially after having one of those nightmares that leave him in a very bad mood.

Remus's moans seem strange to Ragnar. He is too agitated, nervous, and distressed about something that his human counterpart doesn't understand. Since they arrived at the cabin yesterday, he has been restless, which is not something he commonly does, at least not since Anabella died.

With his strength and speed as a powerful alpha, it is not difficult for him to jump over the obstacles in his path, despite the fact that this is the first time he is in this place. He moves through it as if he has been in these forests his whole life.

When he reaches the top of a huge rock, Remus stops abruptly and starts whimpering. He moves from one place to another with his tail pointing upwards.

"What's wrong?" Ragnar asks, trying to take contr

    Ragnar manages to reach his cabin an hour later. His whole body is numb due to the great effort he just made to bring her here without anyone seeing them. He had to hide several times, as it seemed to be the meeting place for some pack to mate during the full moon, and that only complicated things.Julian is standing in front of the cabin when he feels his alpha approaching."I need help," Ragnar tells him through the mental link, and he rushes out to meet him.Julian's expression when he sees Ragnar completely naked and bloody is indescribable; however, when he looks at the girl in his arms, all color drains from his face."Go to Dr. Moreira's clinic," Ragnar's voice sounds more like a squeak. His breathing is too heavy, and his face is pale. "Tell him it's an emergency. That he should come prepared for surgery."While Julian goes for the doctor, Ragnar puts Katrina inside the cabin. He places her on his bed in the room, takes off her dress, and checks her wounds again. Both wounds k

    A desperate video call from Lizzie alerts Mauricio. He abruptly gets out of bed and starts pacing around his room with the phone in his hand, dazed, sleepy, and somewhat scared."I don't know where Katrina is, dad," she cries desperately as she tries to explain to her father what happened. "I've looked for her all over the forest, the omega who accompanied us did too, but we haven't found her. I'm afraid something bad happened to her."Mauricio remains silent, unsure of how to respond. Lizzie continues to cry."You have to come, please, dad. She's missing and a rogue wolf might have attacked her," Lizzie says tremulously. She almost manages a smile when saying that, but Mauricio doesn't notice."What happened, daughter?" Lorena asks, taking the phone from her husband. "Where is your sister? Did you two fight?"Lizzie pretends to want to say something, but can't due to her crying."Calm down, honey," her mother says, seeing her daughter's perfect acting. "We'll go right away. Your fath

    Katrina's condition in the early hours of the morning was not as stable as Ragnar would have liked. Of course, he didn't leave her side for a single moment, and several times, he let Remus out to boost his energy and help her alleviate the pain.Julián tries to convince him to rest, but he adamantly refuses to leave her alone."If you wish, I can stay with her while you get some rest, Alpha," he suggests. "In theory, her treatment should start tomorrow, and you need to be well-rested for that.""It's not necessary, Julián. I'm fine."Julián nods before leaving. Ragnar stares intently at Katrina in bed. Her face is still pale, but at least with the blood transfusion, she regained some color, and she is breathing normally.Remus, inside his head, wags his tail vigorously as he observes her. Ragnar can't deny that she smells good, like his mate; it's an aroma he hadn't sensed since his wife's death, and his wolf never even attempted to sniff another female on any occasion, except now, wi

    Jarl returns to Brazil on a commercial flight during the busiest hour at the airport. Gabriel convinced him that this was the best way to demonstrate the pain he felt for Katrina's disappearance to the journalists. This way, no one would have a reason to point at him as a suspect or a bad husband.Just before disembarking, Jarl rehearses his best sorrowful face in case any press photographers are among the crowd in the waiting area."Breathe slowly," says Gabriel at his side. "If we can get through this test, everything else will be easy."Jarl nods, looking at himself in the mirror with eyes filled with tears. He doesn't need to make much effort to put on a haggard face because Job's mood has negatively affected him. The burning sensation in his chest intensifies at night, and the headache has him dazed most of the day."Let's go down," he requests, taking his briefcase from the seat and walking towards the plane's door and stairs. Gabriel follows him.Not much happens in the waiting

    After Moreira finishes checking on Katrina, she falls asleep again. The doctor warns Ragnar that she will be under observation for at least two weeks and that she cannot move from here unless it's to go to a clinic.After watching the same video several times where Jarl and Lizzie embrace while crying inconsolably, Ragnar asks Julián to speak with a private investigator and gather as much information as possible about that family, but especially about that man.They also agree on how they will take care of her while he undergoes chemotherapy sessions. He doesn't want to leave her alone for a single moment, so first, he considers renting an apartment where they can stay closer to the urban area in case any unexpected situation arises.Ragnar falls into a deep sleep on the couch, next to the bed where she is lying. It's already morning when Katrina wakes up and sees him curled up in that tiny space for his enormous body. She has no doubt that he will have neck pain when he wakes up.Kat

    "Are you feeling okay, alpha?" Julian asks, finding Ragnar in the hallway with his back against the wall and a tormented expression on his face. "How is our moon doing?"The mere mention of it increases the alpha's bad mood, and he immediately heads towards the exit."I'm going for a walk by the lake," Ragnar replies, ignoring his comment. "Then I'll take a bath and rest. I need you to prepare the other room for me and move all my things there while I'm outside."Julian is left confused by his boss's sudden change. Just a while ago, there was no power in the world that could have made him leave Katrina's side, and now he's just leaving like that, without a word."Do you still want the investigator to do the job I told you about, alpha?" Julian asks, just before Ragnar heads towards the lake. "We already know her identity.""Cancel that request. Get the apartment I asked for in the city. Everything indicates that she's already doing better and can leave to resolve her own life.""Sorry

    "I found my mate having sex with my sister on the same day I went to tell him the news that I was expecting a puppy," Katrina says after a few minutes of silence. Ragnar looks up when he hears that, but doesn't say anything. Something in his chest twists with that confession. He had never felt such a strong urge to kill someone, especially when he hears her sob softly again."They set a trap for me to bring me here. My own husband shot me once and then rejected me. When he shot me a second time, I fell off that cliff. I only had time to accept his rejection before losing consciousness."That last statement furrows Ragnar's brow."He deceived me all this time, I believed that I was his true love because I loved him. On the full moon, when I turned 16, I recognized him, it was him, my mate, his scent was unmistakable when I passed by his side. He also recognized me, he marked me shortly after and we became boyfriend and girlfriend, since I was too young for the bond. In my pack, matings

  • Return of the betrayed MATE   Chapter 39. What does this mean?

    Katrina gets out of bed and walks slowly and as if in a trance to the bathroom, which is only a few meters away from her bed. She doesn't hear anything around her except for the beating of her own heart, which feels like it's pressing against her throat. It was a very bad idea to turn on the television. Hearing the news about her disappearance and seeing the hypocritical faces of Jarl and Lizzie crying and suffering because of it only make her more certain of her decision.Once in the bathroom, she closes the door and looks at herself in the mirror."What did I do wrong?" she asks herself, sadder than she has ever been before. Her voice barely comes out due to the huge knot in her throat.The sound of a door opening makes her sigh deeply to calm herself."Mrs. Katrina, are you feeling unwell? Do you need me to do anything for you?" Julian asks from the other side of the bathroom door. She knows Ragnar is not there, because since they arrived at this apartment, she hasn't seen him all

Since birth, she's been a very sensitive and complaining girl, unlike her twin Hector, who seems unaffected by anything and quickly adapts to everything. Yes, Ragnar and Katrina have eight children in total, and according to Katrina, these will be the last, as they are of grandparent age, but Ragnar and Remus disagree. Seeing so many pups roaming the mansion warms his heart, especially since the youngest are already 3 years old, so they might try for more soon.Ethan has become the second man of the house at 20, taking care of and protecting his

    Weeks fly by in the blink of an eye. Katrina's belly has grown significantly, and her movements have reduced to a minimum for this stage of her pregnancy. Her little Rouse, as she and her husband call her, is very healthy and energetic, so much so that she doesn't even let Katrina sleep properly anymore, and consequently not Ragnar, who takes care of her day and night.Today is the day of the scheduled surgery to give birth. Moreira preferred her to have surgery since the baby is in a less favorable position for Katrina to have a natural birth.At Alba Noctis castle, everyone is awake early, preparing for the princess's arrival; there's a lot of activity in every corner. Ragnar is very nervous, his hands sweating, and a giant knot in his throat making it hard to breathe normally. He had never been this nervous in his life, not even the day the twins were born.He has already made about ten rounds in total in his little one's room just this morning.

    Sebastian and Ruby arrive first at the scene in their werewolf form, encountering an aggressive Akira and upset about the previous events, Ragnar semi-conscious and Jarl evidently dead in her claws."Are you okay?" Sebastian tries to communicate with Katrina through the mental link, but Akira still has her aura expanded and cannot effectively communicate with her or get too close, so he circles her at a certain distance with his tail between his legs, showing his neck as a sign of respect and submission.Rita, Ruby's wolf, also stays back, as well as those who are arriving at the site.Akira howls loudly again, increasing her aura even more. Sirox and the others have no choice but to step back due to the pain caused by her display of power. All the werewolves of the Alba Noctis pack receive the message from their leader, the one and only alpha, that their "chosen alpha," Jarl Fenrisson, has just been defeated by her.

    "Remus!" Katrina's voice makes Jarl blink, while Remus keeps his eyes closed, his strength quickly waning with the silver bullet lodged in his chest, and he retreats back into Ragnar's mind, allowing him to take his human form once again. Katrina's breath slows at that moment. Everything is silent and dark around her as she sees her severely wounded partner on the ground. Akira uses all her strength to cut the tapes binding Katrina's feet and hands and struggles to get up to reach Ragnar, blood gushing from his chest. She tries to scream for help, but her voice doesn't come out, all the words getting stuck in her throat, the drug that Jarl made her inhale is too strong, and Akira, although she tries to emerge, doesn't quite succeed. Katrina cradles her partner's head in her arms. He is still alive, though gravely injured and unconscious. Jarl looks up and stares at Katrina, who is deeply distressed about Ragnar, but unaware that he is also injured, his left arm has been torn off by

    It is impossible to continue hiding what happens when everyone starts to move around the house.Rubí and Paula wake up disoriented by the unusual movement in the mansion's hallways, they go out to look and as soon as they realize that Ragnar's room door is open and there are several people inside, they run there."What's going on, brother?!" Rubí shouts. "Where is Katrina?!"Paula tries to restrain Ragnar, but she can't. He is too nervous.Ragnar can't stand to watch the video on the guard's phone, he takes a deep breath before leaving. He won't allow that man to harm Katrina. He said he would never allow it to happen again over his dead body, and he means it. Tonight one of them will die."Son, please," Paula tries to stop him. "Let the guards take care of it, please don't go in that state. You need to calm down, you're too nervous."Ragnar looks at her for a few seconds before leaving. Julián runs after him. Inside his car, he receives a message from an unknown number, with a photo

    The lights of the Shadowfang mansion are gradually fading and Jarl knows that the moment he has been waiting for has finally arrived. There are two guards wandering around that area, weak omegas, who don't worry him too much, because he knows he can go unnoticed with the potion and that if something goes out of control, they are not enemies to him. He walks stealthily a few meters along the side of the wall when he overhears one of them saying he needs to go to the bathroom. That moment is perfect to move forward. He runs to the door and when he tries to open it, it opens without much difficulty. He looks cautiously to make sure there is no one else inside. The whole place is already semi-dark, but he can see that it is the laundry section of the house. He enters and after scanning everything quickly with his eyes, he goes up the main staircase to reach Katrina on the second floor.He opens each door very slowly to avoid alerting anyone and to see who is there, until he reaches the

    Inside the cells of the Alba Noctis pack, Jarl hits the wall hard upon receiving the news from Gabriel. He is very nervous. His friend looks at him resignedly."You know that what you are asking for is dangerous, and they won't risk their lives for nothing," Gabriel says, trying to keep his voice low. "You decide, either give them what they want or stay here and wait for your trial.""That's too much money, Gabriel," Jarl yells, angry. "I'll be left with nothing, it's all I have left. They already took everything from me."There is a deep hatred in Jarl's eyes when he thinks of Ragnar and Katrina. Gabriel says nothing, but he knows that Jarl has some plan in mind and there is no human power that will make him back down."I need to get out of here. I want Katrina and that damn man to suffer for this. I want them to regret coming back and planning all of this against me.""Don't you think it's time to walk away? Don't do something that will drag you down even further, Jarl," Gabriel fee

    Ragnar and Katrina, along with the elder council members, spend a long time in the boardroom to clarify some points, especially those related to those four. They do not want anyone to get away with all the harm they did to Katrina. When they finally leave the room, all the employees turn to look at her, but she is too mentally exhausted now to give them any kind of explanation. She will do it tomorrow when she is calmer and has rested enough. Ragnar gives some instructions to the assistant and she nods. She knows it's not a good time, so the assistant asks everyone to return to their workplaces and they do so. Katrina walks towards the elevator, ready to go back home, when a familiar figure appears before her, about five steps away. "Amber?" Katrina can't hide her excitement at seeing her after so long. She looks different, but it's her, she knows it, she can feel it. She walks up to her to hug her and they both embrace tightly. Amber is crying like never before. "Amber, my frie
