last update Last Updated: 2024-02-08 09:19:44

The Alba Noctis castle is also beautiful and large, one of the most beautiful in the Amazon, but, definitely, the Shadowfang mansion is on another level.

Julian parks in the spot that belongs to the alpha's truck and immediately gets out to open the door for his passengers and then unload the suitcases.

The blonde stays behind, amazed, looking at the amount of luxury vehicles parked in the huge and spacious parking lot. All this is impressive to her.

Mrs. Paula and Rubi are in the library sorting out some business matters when one of the maids comes to announce that Alpha Ragnar has just arrived.

Ragnar sent a message to his sister days ago informing her that the treatment was almost finished, but he didn't say that he would be returning home so soon. Both of them go out to greet him.

"Son, why didn't you let us know you were coming back today?" Paula walks up to Ragnar and hugs him, as is her custom. He places a kiss on her cheek. "We thought you wouldn't be back until the weekend."

    "What are you doing here?" Ragnar asks, sleepy, as he opens the door to his room. "Did something happen to you?"Katrina is in pajamas, hugging a small pillow and staring at him with distress. After the conversation between her mother and Rubí, they barely convinced him to stay the night at the mansion. Although he made it clear that it would only be for today and tomorrow they would go to the apartment. Paula hinted several times to her son that it wasn't necessary for Katrina to go with him, that there was plenty of space in the house to accommodate her, but for some reason he was very reluctant all the time. His mother chose to let the conversation go for now, but she is determined to convince him. "Did I wake you up?" she asks, hoarsely, not responding to his question. Ragnar looks at her with an annoyed face. "If someone knocks on my door in such a desperate way, it's obvious that I'll wake up," Ragnar grumbles, and returns to his bed knowing exactly why she is here. Katrina f

    "This is a true miracle! My brother is sleeping in late," says Rubí, mockingly, when Ragnar appears in the dining room. She is packing her things to go to the pack clinic. "I see Katrina left you exhausted."Ragnar looks at her with annoyance. His furrowed brow indicates to Rubí that he did not like her comment at all."Your brother just arrived from a trip, it's logical that he's tired," says Paula, approaching him to leave a cup of coffee on the table and then give him a tight hug. Paula loves to spoil her children while they are around, despite having an entire army working in the mansion, she prefers to cook the dishes they like herself, especially for Ragnar, who is hardly ever home."Did I say something wrong?" Rubí mocks. "Even I felt like cuddling with you. You looked very calm and comfortable.""We've already talked about this, Rubí, and you know my stance on her," reprimands Ragnar. "It's not what you're imagining, and I don't want you to misinterpret this. She had a nightma

    Ragnar flips through the folder Ramiro brought him while jotting down some things in an agenda. Ever since he told Ramiro everything about Katrina's origin and Jarl Fenrisson's true intentions regarding the Alba Noctis pack, he knows exactly what he wants to do and how to do it.With all the negative information Ramiro brought, he has the slight impression that he won't have to wait too long to carry out his idea. Every time he looks at those reports and photos, his stomach churns. How could someone as sweet as Katrina accept a mate like him? That man is a monster and a white-collar criminal who must be punished. He has no doubt that this guy deceived her, made her believe she was his mate with a well-structured purpose. He just needs to discover exactly what that purpose is, because he has no doubt that the Grimlore fortune is the least of his objectives. That man wants something more.With a rage he can't identify, Ragnar slams the folder shut and slams his fist on the desk, startli

    Laughter from the kitchen greets Ragnar as he arrives at the mansion. He walks over there and watches Katrina interact with her mother and sister from the doorway. He can't deny that she seems calmer and more relaxed since they arrived here. His mother is also much more smiley than usual, and that somehow pleases him.Without any of them noticing that he has arrived, he turns around and goes up to his room, takes off his clothes, and goes straight into the shower. Cold water always manages to relax him, so he stays there for some time with his eyes closed until his bathroom door is opened abruptly, startling him."Damn!" the alpha exclaims, grabbing one of the towels within reach to cover his naked body. Katrina immediately turns around, embarrassed and blushing, as she covers her face with both hands and curses for not hearing that the shower was running. A burning sensation rises from the tips of her toes to her face, making her unbearably warm. She had seen him in his underwear the

  • Return of the betrayed MATE   Chapter 55. Full Moon

    Ragnar wakes up much earlier than usual and before everyone else, especially the woman who sticks to him like glue every night, he leaves the mansion with Julián to go to a private clinic where he usually gets treated. Julián convinced him that it was better to go for a check-up to see what was happening, since it's strange that his headaches are attacking him with more intensity, despite the new treatment he has received. "Mr. Shadowfang, the doctor is already waiting for you in his office," says the nurse, gesturing for him to follow. Ragnar enters the room and his doctor greets him with a handshake. Dr. Gutiérrez is a specialist in cancerous tumors and has been working directly with Moreira on Ragnar's case since he was diagnosed. "It's better to get straight to the point, alpha Ragnar," the doctor says, asking him to change clothes to perform some tests. "I don't like these headaches you've been having lately. That shouldn't be happening.""I've had too many problems these days

    "Hello," the voice on the other side is barely audible. Mary can't believe that Ragnar answered her call. "I haven't heard from you in a long time, Ragnar. How are you?""Busy," he replies, gruffly and annoyed. He takes another sip of whiskey as he fills the bathtub with cold water."I was wondering if I could come to keep you company tonight," she says, trying her luck. She knows that Ragnar always locks himself up in his apartment during these dates to avoid contact with other werewolves, but she wants more than anything for him to allow her to be by his side like he did before. "I can make a light dinner for both of us, we can open a bottle of wine, talk, if you don't have any plans, of course.""I don't have any plans, Mary, but frankly, I don't want any right now either.""Maybe if you give me the opportunity, I..." she interrupts him with a seductive voice, "... can help you relax a little.

    Already on the outskirts of the building, Katrina walks hastily through the brightly lit streets illuminated by the moonlight. The only thing she can salvage from this disastrous visit is that she now knows where that damn Ragnar's apartment is. Although, after seeing what she saw, she doesn't exactly know what this information is useful for.For a few seconds, she feels trapped in a strange sensation, suffocated, with a dry mouth, her heart starts pounding in her chest with such intensity that it seems like it's going to burst out of her. She leans against a wall as she tries to compose herself before moving forward. What the hell is happening to her?"Katrina, wait, please," Paula speaks to her from a few steps behind when she finally manages to see her. "Don't rush so much.""I... I'm sorry for leaving like that," she responds after a deep sigh. "I shouldn't have asked to be brought here. If I knew he already had company, I...""It's not what you think, Katrina, my brother..."

    Ragnar spends a few hours aimlessly pacing around his room. Ever since his sister's visit, his mother, and Katrina, he feels much more unsettled than before. That young woman always manages to turn his world upside down when he thinks he has everything under control. He would prefer to just leave all this mess behind and continue with his life as if nothing had happened, but something inside his heart and mind prevents him from doing so. That frustrates him, distresses him, and angers him greatly. He was never like this. What is happening to him with her? Doesn't he have enough problems in his life to join her and have more?He looks at the time on his clock, and there is still an hour until midnight. He has all his curtains closed to avoid seeing the moonlight, although that doesn't prevent it from affecting him in the same way. He takes off his sweatpants and takes another long, cold shower.

    Twenty years have passed...From his office window, Ragnar watches Katrina attentively as she talks with Amber and Rubí in the courtyard, pointing towards the little ones playing in the vast yard. A little further, by the pools, are the older ones, Ethan and his mate Milly, Selene, Rouse, Brandon, and Bruno, the twins born after Rouse, and Lucinda.A smile spreads across his face as he sees Silvia sobbing while asking her mother to carry her. 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. He hired a designer specializing in

The three are sentenced to an undignified death in front of all the members of the pack. The sentence will be carried out tonight in the castle arena.Lizzie begins to cry inconsolably, while her mother remains stoic, unmoved. Mauricio remains unresponsive, considering the possibility of using the potion that man gave him the other night to prevent those Lycan from ending their lives in front of everyone.Katrina puts her hand over her mouth to stifle a sob as she desperately seeks a way to escape.After the sentences, the trial is concluded and the three are taken to the places where they will remain until the night.Ragnar and Katrina embrace.

    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. Most of them, from where they are, begin to experience a lot of pain

    "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
