The Cursed Alpha's Mate SEVENTY-SIX
He stepped forward and took my hands in his. I looked down at them to see sparks of fire that made me snatch them back. Magic was something I struggled with. There were no mentors, no guides, nothing. I had to work my way through it. I'd spent the last few days getting used to the feeling of something more than blood coursing through my veins and noting triggers that made me lose control of that feeling. "Are you trying to burn yourself?" I exclaimed. My magic wouldn't hurt me but it could hurt him."I'm not trying to hurt myself. I'm trying to get to you." He took my hands again but I snatched them back. "What did Clover say?" I asked, taking a seat. "She has an idea of Skylar's whereabouts. She is likely at Blood River pack." He sank into his set, moving the things in his desk to the side. "She wouldn't give me the full details because –" He broke off and I got the feeling he was hiding things from me. "She could be in her mum's pack but the chances of that are slim." Skylar wa

"No." "You are being unreasonable," I protested."I am not being unreasonable. You are not allowed to see him. You are not allowed anywhere near him!" His voice raised, his arms crossed over his chest and I knew he wasn't relenting. But I wasn't relenting either. "I am going to see him. I'm going to see him today, in fact. You can either come with me or not." "There is no question here. No debate. You will not see him. That's final." He slammed his palms down on his desk to emphasize the finality of his words. "Valens, I am your Luna," I reminded him. "You should stop treating me like a mere omega." "I –" He paused, his brows crinkling. "It is my duty to protect you. I must protect you.""What protection do I need from a chained prisoner?" I couldn't help but snap. Something occurred to me then that made me frown. "Is this about my protection or is it just because it's Lucien?" I frowned. The frown on his face melted away. "It's not about Lucien. It's about you." He sighed, raki

"It wasn't supposed to be like this," he said, his head hanging to the side and his voice cracked. "I swear to you, it wasn't supposed to be like this. I never meant to hurt you." He raised his head and looked at me. When I didn't say anything, Lucien turned to Valens. "Alpha, it was all Skylar's idea-" "I am not your Alpha," Valens cut him off, his voice hard. "Can you give us a minute?" I turned to Valens. "No," he answered without missing a beat. "Please," I begged him with my eyes to understand. I needed to talk to Lucien. Only then would I get the closure my heart desperately craved. Despite how much he had hurt me and how much I hated him, I could never forget we had been best friends. I needed to know when he became comfortable with hurting me the way he did. I wanted to know what happened. "Aysel, I'm sorry, but I cannot." He looked solemn. His eyes also begged me to understand. "I cannot leave you with him. My wolf will not allow it." "Very well." I turned back to Luc

I didn't need to be led by the hand to where my worst enemy was being held. My wolf sniffed him out from the numerous scents in the dungeons. Valens grabbed my forearm as I walked away from him with all intentions of finding Zavier. "The people know about you, now. I suggest we go home. We can do this another day." The expression on his face made it clear that he'd made up his mind and he had no intention of backing down. Unfortunately, I too had made up my mind. After seeing Lucien, I would not rest until I saw Zavier. I wanted to see him in the most humiliating position. I wanted to see what he looked like defeated and on his knees. How did he feel knowing his legacy would end with him? There was no chance for Skylar. Their lineage ended with them which was a shame really. Centuries of ruling Redville and the entire lineage of what used to be great men would end with them. "We can do this another day but I want to do it today." I tried pulling my arm from Valens' grip but it was

VALENS"Why do you keep sneaking glances at me?" I asked when I noticed from the corner of my eyes that my mate had once again glanced furtively up at me. "I am not sneaking glances at you," she defended but there was no missing the guilt in her tone or how she coloured. I closed my laptop and moved it to the side of my desk to give her my full attention. "What do you want to say?" I asked, leaning back into my seat."Can we go out for lunch?" She asked. I knew that wasn't what she wanted to say so I refused to play along. "Are you bored?" She shook her head. "It's okay if you don't want to be here," I reminded her for the tenth time. The new house was too big. She wouldn't admit it because she wanted a big house and a lot of space in the first place, but she was lonely in that house. I was going to ask Octavia to move in with us and the women who would train her but it kept slipping my mind. "I want to be close to you," she protested. "It's fun watching you work." "What's fun i

Valens wasn't a talker, I knew that. I knew before I mentioned it that he would be averse to the idea of seeing a therapist as he would have to open up. What I hadn't expected was for him to try to bury me with work all of a sudden to get me off his tail. "This contains the history of our kind from the first king to the third. We went through a period when we had no monarch," the Royal Historian said, picking up a book. "This book covers the history of wolves in the days when we didn't have a stable rulership." The book she produced next was the biggest I ever saw in my life. "Am I really to read all these?" I asked, rubbing my neck. I knew there would be work to be done but these books would take months to read."No, you will get to read them but for the work we have to do now, I have a summary." She produced what looked like a long novel. "This is something my predecessor wrote. It is a bit more concise with only six volumes." She handed it to me. I took the book with reverence.

"What happened to her?" I asked Valens when I successfully got Celeste settled in. She was having a bath now so I went to grab her some clothes. She'd refused to speak when I asked her what was wrong. She'd cried the more I asked her if anything had happened. The only coherent words I got out of her were 'I don't want him!' I assumed it had something to do with Jabari but still couldn't figure out how my mate fit into the mix. "Did you know she is Jabari's mate?" He asked in response to my question, raising his head from his computer. "Yeah, Jabari told me," I replied. He scowled. "And you couldn't tell me?" Why did it sound like he was accusing me?"Why? It didn't even occur to me that Jabari hadn't told you." I shrugged, pulling out a nightdress for my friend. It was bright, a sunflower yellow that I hoped would brighten her up a bit. "He told me today. He was nervous about seeing her so I offered to go along with him." He sighed, pinching his nose. "You should have seen the wa

Celeste fell asleep close to midnight with me hugging her. I was dozing off when a text lit up my phone screen, startling me. I opened it to see a message from Valens. 'When are you coming to bed?' It read. I yawned as I typed out a reply. 'I'm not. I don't want her sleeping alone tonight' His reply came in a flash. 'What do you mean you are not? What about me?' 'What about you?' I stretched as Celeste turned. 'You want me sleeping alone?' Another text followed that. 'Come to bed.''I can't. She's going to wake up soon and I don't want her crying alone in a strange room.' 'How am I supposed to sleep?' I blinked at the text. Then a smile stretched my lips. 'You close your eyes, babe. And dream of me.' 'Ok.' I laughed a little at that reply. 'Goodnight.' 'Are you upset?' I asked, holding back a giggle. 'No.' 'Oh my goodness, you're mad at me.' I added a bunch of emojis to the text, hit send, and readjusted myself in bed. Celeste turned again, her breath hitching as if she wa
