THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE Chapter 83
Xander's povThe air around us became alive with a burning need. It was raw and strong, the undeniable Nate bond now stranger than ever. I could smell her arousal, it was driving me insane.Restraining myself had been hard all night and now, this was the final straw. She pulled away and looked at me, her icy blue eyes had streaks of electric blue dancing in them.Her wolf? I wondered.I didn't have time to think much about it as her fingers started roaming my body. I stiffened under her touch trying to control myself. I caught her hands, stopping them in their tracks as she tried to go underneath my shirt.“Ava,” I started, my voice was rough and strained as I fought to hold myself back. “Are you sure?”I didn't want her to regret what will happen if we go on.She nodded early, her breath coming out in pants as she burned with desire and need. “I want this, Xander. I want you.”A satisfied growl rumbled in my chest at her words. Before I could second guess I pulled her close and crash

Ava's povI laid in bed staring at the ceiling as the bond finally settled but my mind raced with thoughts of how eventful the day had been.Leo and Aria had also completed the mate bond. It was weird being on all fours and mating like an animal. It would definitely take some getting used to. My bones and muscles ached, a reminder of the pain of shifting. Xander had said it would fade in a couple of days and soon, shifting will become effortless.I smiled remembering Xander and I cuddled up, laying on the grass naked as we stared at the night sky. We had done the verbal acceptance as well.My body felt new, my hearing, vision, strength and nose were heightened. Now I understood why Xander's chamber was secluded, to help keep the noise at bay.As for Aria, she had been silent since we shifted but I could still feel her at the back of my mind watching, waiting.We needed to talk, Xander has given me a couple of tips on how the bond between Aria and I worked. I closed my eyes and allowed

Ava's pov“Anyway, Endymion kept dying and was reincarnated until he found you… then the war came. Now, you were strong enough to defeat the humans but then the fates did something that has never been done since the creation of the universe.”“What?”“They interfered with your destinies. At first, the gods didn't know but they later found out. Selene was crushed by the fact that you and Endymion died, you both had finally found each other and were meant to live long, happy lives with children as that would be the last reincarnation.” Aria paused.“But she was also suspicious, because with the essence of the gods, you were both demigods and mere werewolves shouldn't have been able to kill you. She confronted the fates and they admitted to causing your deaths.”“Why?”“Because of the awakening of Zerathos.” Aria's voice had taken a dark turn as she growled when she said his name.“Who's… Zerathos?” I asked.“The dark god that the keeper told you about.” Aria said, darkly. “I’d suggest y

Ava's povI was speechless by the time she was done. This wasn't just a battle between the mortals and a small god, this was a god as strong as the older gods. A war going on since the beginning of time and it now rested on Xander and I to end it.It was a lot to take in.I opened my mouth to speak but no words came out. I remembered the lightning on my last self's fingertips. “What were those sparks on my fingertips?”Thankfully, Aria didn't push my sudden change in topic. “Your powers. Right now, they are awakening. I'm sure you saw in the first set of memories that there are books in the hidden chamber that will teach you as much as possible to harness them. I will also be here to help you every step of the way.”“Thank you.” I whispered.Before I could say anything her eyes began to glow and a thundering sound shattered the peacefulness of the clearing.“What's going on?” I asked, panicked. Scrambling to my feet.“Him.” Aria growled and turned to the woods.I saw a pair of glowing

Xander's pov)We had done our best in avoiding the pack over the last few days. The hidden chamber was very helpful in teaching us about Ava's powers, I wanted to focus on hers before mine. I was already strong, shaped by years of hard training but Ava knew nothing.I stood in a private training ground in the far corner of the castle one morning watching as Ava struggled to summon her abilities.She has the power—I could feel it. But it was locked deep inside her, untapped. She mentioned lightning but I had a feeling that there was more."Focus," I said, standing behind her. "Breathe. Feel the energy in your blood. Feel it flowing through your veins, coursing all over your body. Channel it to your fingertips.”She exhaled in annoyance. "I don’t feel anything, Xander." She snapped."Yet. You will, soon."I stepped closer, wrapping my arms around her waist from behind and pulled her close.She stiffened. "What are you doing?""Relax," I murmured. “Stop overthinking it."I placed my hand

Xander's povA group of rebels armed with the new weapons concerned Magnus and Draven never the barracks. Magnus was strong and holding his ground against them but Draven looked cornered with his back pressed against the wall of the castle.I rushed over to them, tearing any one who stepped in my path. I lunged at the rogue closest to Draven, the unexpected movement made the weapon fall out of his hand and clatter to the ground. I wasted no time in crushing it under my paw then tearing into his shoulder. The sickening sound of crunching bones was like music to my ears.Ava wasn't far behind as she ran past me and lunged at another rebel. He pulled out a dagger attempting to cut her but she dodged effortlessly, her jaw clamping around his wrist with a ferocious growl.More rebels poured into the courtyard, forcing us to fall back. They were more coordinated than before, their attacks synchronized as if being puppeteer by someone we couldn't see.They knew our defenses well and effortle

Xander's povI know the keeper said not everyone could find the chamber but Magnus knowing was bad enough.The attack wasn't just about killing us, it was a diversion. Their goal was the chamber.I shifted to my human form in an instant."Magnus!" I roared, he spared me a quick glance, eyes wide before retreating with the rebel into the chaos.Ava grabbed my arm. "What is it?""They're after the chamber," I snarled. "We have to stop them!”We tried to chase but lost them.“Let's check the chamber.” Ava said, voice filled with urgency.“Wait.” I stopped her. “What if that's what they want? They could be lingering, waiting to see where exactly it's hidden and how to get in.”Ava was silent as she pondered my words. Suddenly, her eyes went blank then it returned to normal.“Aria said she knows what to do.” Ava said then her eyes became electric as Aria took over.She reached out her hands and lightning shot out forming a wall at the entrance of the hallway so no one would see or pass thr

Xander's povGarrick held up a hand, silencing the audience. “That's not why we're here. We summoned you both for answers. During the battle with the rebels we all witnessed something… unnatural .” His eyes flickered to Ava briefly. “The human shifted into a wolf. How?”The murmurs were louder this time.Maris leaned forward, hands clasped in front of her and her expression suspicious. “And not only did she shift into a wolf, she shifted into a white one. That has never been seen or heard of in the entire history of Lycara— not even among the ancient bloodlines.”Thane suddenly slammed his fist on the table. “What sorcery is this? Is she a threat to us?”Leo snarled inside me but I claimed him, the last thing we needed was Leo going crazy and repeating the history with Vanessa and her friends. I stepped forward and addressed him, my voice cold and unwavering.“She is no threat,” I snapped. “If anything, she’s the reason we’re still standing. Without her, this castle would’ve fallen. S

THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE Chapter 222
Rowan's POVLyra’s breathing had finally evened out beside me, a soft, steady rhythm that showed that she was finally at ease and I was glad. She didn’t say another word after I wrapped the blanket around her and sat by her side. She didn’t need to.I looked at her, really looked.Her face had lost weight in the past months, the edges sharper now—grief had carved out the softness she once had so effortlessly. The dark, sunken circles beneath her eyes told me she hadn’t been sleeping much. And even now, in the calm after the war, her body was tense beneath the blanket, like she was ready to spring awake at any given time if someone so much as touched her. .But she had opened up.That alone made something in my chest unclench for the first time in weeks.I tilted my head back, let my eyes gaze up to the stars, but even their beauty felt muted tonight. Everything felt… dulled. Like we’d survived the fire, only to emerge into the ashes.But she talked. She talked.And I’d take that over
THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE Chapter 221
Lyra’s POVThe fire had burned down to little fire, and one by one, they drifted off to sleep. Ava had fallen asleep curled against Xander’s chest. Vanessa and Kael were tangled up on a blanket near the edge of the camp, whispering and grinning like the war had never happened and they were in some sort of fairytale. Like they’d known peace all their lives.I was happy and envious of them so I forced myself to look away.Rowan had stayed with me.He always did.By the time the last bit of fire was snuffed and silence had settled over the camp, he rose, wordless, and offered me his hand. I took it, letting him guide me away from the others, deeper into the shadows where the weight of their stares couldn’t follow.We walked to a place in Ashville that we liked. It was a little hill above the camp where the entire land could be seen and the sky felt so close. The stars were particularly bright on that night, I just stood there and took a deep breath.The night air was cold, crisp, almost
THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE Chapter 220
Lyra’s povI don't know how long we sat there but I had droned out their conversation as I watched the burning fire. Suddenly, I felt the air shift. It wasn't the regular shift.But this time, it was different.Tense. Sharp.I knew why.I could feel it, their eyes were on me.And they deserved answers.I just wasn’t sure I had the strength to give them.Rowan came even closer, a steady wall beside me, his warmth grounding. He hadn't spoken much, just held my hand quietly under the blanket we shared. It should’ve comforted me more than it did. But the guilt clung to me, curling in my chest like a shadow that refused to be exorcised.I peeped at Ava across the fire, her knees were pulled to her chest, arms loosely wrapped around them. Xander had stood up and was standing just behind her, arms crossed, his gaze unreadable as it flicked from person to person—though it lingered on me more often than not.I was almost certain I could go the night without a word being said. That they’d keep
THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE Chapter 219
Lyra’s POVThe crackling of the campfire sounded distant just like the faint sound of voices laughing and talking. Familiar voices. Ones that once meant comfort and strength. Now, they sounded foreign and distant, like echoes bouncing off the thick stone walls of guilt I had built around myself.I sat wrapped in my cloak, hood drawn low, body leaning into Rowan’s side. His warmth was steady, grounding. I could feel his heart through the fabric, steady as a drum, but there was a tension in the way he held me. He didn’t trust me—not entirely. I didn’t blame him.They had every right not to.Ashville was ruined. The war was over. And I had helped start it. They just didn't know that.I didn’t know how to look them in the eyes, not after what I had done.Ava’s laugh echoed through the air, loud and carefree, like birds chirping and singing during the summer. She teased Vanessa about how she once fought her over Xander. Vanessa rolled her eyes but smiled, her fingers tangled with Kael’s. I
THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE Chapter 218
Ava's povThe fire crackled in the center of our circle, its warm glow and embers floating up to the dark sky above us. The scent of roasted meat and earth filled the air. It was the first night in what felt like centuries that I didn’t have to look over my shoulder or hold a weapon while I slept.We had won.The war was over. Zerathos was gone alongside his shadows and forge. It was a tough battle but we won in the end and that's all that mattered. The camp was quiet, solemn in places, and slowly coming back to life in others. Rebuilding had started before the ashes were even cold.We’d spent the entire day helping—healing, carrying, burying. Holding hands that trembled with grief. Offering words to those who could still barely believe they’d survived. It was exhausting in a new kind of way—no longer physical, but emotional.And now, for the first time in weeks, we sat around a fire without dread thick in the air. Just six of us. Allies through it all. Survivors of chaos.Ava sat bes
THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE Chapter 217
Ava’s POVThe morning after the final battle was a strange kind of quiet. Not silence, exactly—there were still murmurs, the crackle of the early fires, the low sobs of those mourning their fallen, and the laughter of those too happy not to laugh. It was a quiet that came after chaos, the kind that felt borrowed, fragile, as if the world was holding its breath, unsure if the war was truly over.But it was.Zerathos was gone. His shadows had dispersed, leaving behind only the smell of ash and blood.I stood at the edge of the ruins that had once been the main part of our camp, the place where strategy was whispered and sleepless nights were passed in tense silence. Now it was littered with broken weapons, scorched earth, and fat too many lifeless bodies.Kael called out names from a growing list, his voice steady despite the tremble in it. Vanessa stood beside him, her hand in his, as they honored each name with a nod and a moment of silence. Rowan knelt by the body of one of his falle
THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE Chapter 216
Ava’s POVLyra was a blur of shadows, her body twisting and jerking with the force of a nightmare that had fully claimed her. Her eyes were two hollow pits of blackness, her once vibrant blue eyes now lost beneath an abyss. The very air around her seemed to tremble with the power of Zerathos’ dark magic, and the wail that tore from her throat was not the sound of her voice anymore. It was something ancient, something malevolent, echoing in the very bones of the earth beneath us.Xander’s blade clashed with hers as she lunged at him again, but there was no recognition in her movements—just raw, unfiltered rage. The Lyra I knew, the sister of Rowan, the one who had laughed with me and shared secrets in the quiet corners of our kingdom, was gone.“Lyra!” Rowan screamed, his voice was raw and hoarse, breaking with the anguish of a twin who had just watched his sibling become something unrecognizable. His voice was a beacon of desperation, but it did nothing to stop the creature she had be
THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE Chapter 215
Ava’s POVThe ground trembled beneath our feet as Lyra's form charged toward Xander with unnatural strength, the sound of her shrieking filling the air with an unnatural, bone-chilling shrill. Her movements were too fast, too erratic, her body a twisted mockery of the sister I knew. Her eyes, once silver with kindness, now pulsed with an abyssal blackness—pools of darkness that swallowed any light. She was lost. But I refused to believe it. Not completely. Not yet.“Xander, MOVE!” I shouted, pushing myself forward, my heart hammering against my ribcage. I couldn’t lose him. Not now.Xander barely had time to react before Lyra was upon him, her blades gleaming with malice as they sliced through the air. He barely dodged, the edge of her dagger grazing his shoulder, sending a burst of pain radiating through his body. He growled, backing away, but she was relentless—her speed matched only by the cold fury in her eyes.“No!” I screamed, my voice raw with desperation, but the words were lo
THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE Chapter 214
Ava's pov Xander leapt first, ducking low and slashing at Vorthar’s legs. The beast snarled and turned, leaving his side open. That was my cue, I lunged, flipping through the air and slamming both daggers into his back. He screamed, bucking like a bull. I held on until he slammed into the wall, crushing me under his weight. I dropped, breath knocked out of me. But Xander was already there, slicing into Vorthar's arm, forcing him to drop me. I hit the ground and rolled, vision spinning. I’d felt pain before. But this was different. I was using too much light magic too quickly, draining faster than I could replenish. My body wasn’t healing as fast. “Ava!” Xander shouted again. “You okay?” “I’m fine,” I gritted out, but we both knew it was a lie. Vorthar was breathing heavier now. Bleeding, but not enough. “This isn’t working,” I said. “We need something stronger.” “We have something,” Xander said. “The dagger—the one blessed by the gods from the light forge. You st
