Amanda’s POVAt first, I didn’t care what they were doing; he was a monster, and I hated him. But as I watched, I began feeling a clench in my heart. Watching my mate, a man who is supposed to love, adore, and protect me, with another woman, moaning loudly in ecstasy was something I couldn’t endure, no matter how hard I tried.I tried to suppress my emotions, but I couldn’t. Instead, my eyes began brimming with tears. When I realized I couldn’t stay and watch anymore, I decided to leave, but he stopped me, paid the lady, and asked me to wait until he returned.I wished I could ignore his commands and leave, but I was scared of the implications of my action. Inhaling deeply, I wiped the tears on my cheek and composed myself. He didn’t deserve a single drop of my tears.A moment later, I heard his footsteps behind me, announcing he was out of the shower. He didn’t say a word to me, but rather, I heard movement around, and after a moment, he spoke. “Turn around,” his voice was low and te
Amanda’s POVWith terrified eyes, I looked at Beta Matthew, confused by what he had just done. My heart pounded in my chest as I watched Beta Matthew and Alpha Edward glaring at each other with eyes filled with anger. Fear gripped me, and I had to get down from the bed as I watched them exchanging daggering glares.“If you were not my beta and friend, I would have taught you a lesson,” Alpha Edward growled, and I gulped in fear.“I told you she is my mate. Why do you still go after her?” Beta Matthew spat angrily, obviously not bothered by Alpha Edward's scary look.“She is my wife!” Alpha Edward declared possessively.“A marriage that was based on lies and deceit. You forced her into marrying you,” Beta Matthew sneered.Alpha Edward groaned and clenched both fists. I could see that he was fuming with rage and was doing his best to control it.“Stay away from her, Alpha Edward. I have told you that she is my mate, and soon I will prove her innocence,” Beta Matthew warned with no atom
Amanda’s POVHe seemed confused by my actions, but he didn’t push me away, which was a sign that he wasn’t against my offer. Wrapping my hands around his neck, I looked into his eyes and smiled. “You are not forcing me, neither am I doing it against my will. I'm willingly offering myself to you tonight; you can have me as much as you want,” I declared. I couldn’t believe I was actually doing this, but what is the harm in it? I would prefer Beta Matthew, a man who believes my words and wants to help me, to a mate who has caused me nothing but pain.I noticed he wasn’t making a move to touch me, but rather, he just kept staring at me, which gave me a clue that maybe he wanted me to make the first move. So I took off the blouse I was putting on and was left only in my bra. His eyes settled on my boobs for a second before he looked back at me. Smiling awkwardly at him, I went for the hook of my bra, but he suddenly got up from his seat, and I wrapped my legs around him while he carried m
Alpha Edward's POVI felt the bed creaking, which made me realize someone was getting into my bed. Getting alerted, I opened my eyes, yanked the figure, and slammed it on my bed while I hovered above it. Taking a better look, I realized it was Amanda, and my brow furrowed.“What are you doing…” My words got stuck in my mouth when she slammed her lips against mine for a passionate kiss. Responding to the kiss, I let go of her and deepened the kiss. She moaned in between, then suddenly pulled away. Our gaze interlocked, and she smirked at me.“Why are you here? I thought you were with your mate?” I murmured, with jealousy. She scoffed and wrapped her hands around my neck. “It is you I want, not him.” She flirted by licking her lips with her tongue. A throaty groan left my lips as I felt my dick jerk in anticipation“You said you didn’t want me, that you preferred him to me,” I murmured, and she smirked. “Are you jealous?”“No!” I answered though I knew it was a lie.“Are you angry?” She
Alpha Edward’s POVI stood there, stunned by his declaration. The words echoed in my mind, refusing to sink in. “What did you just say?” I demanded through gritted teeth, and the young man looked my way; his eyes blazed with anger. “You heard me correctly, Alpha Zach; that bitch was my mate!” He repeated his words, and I staggered back, shaking my head. “That cannot be,” I murmured in disbelief. Elisa was my mate; she was supposed to be my mate. That's what the seer said. She said my second mate was the young girl who saved me, and once I marked her, I would regain the voice of my wolf. I would have marked Elisa the day I saw her, but she was just fourteen, so I decided to mark her when she turned eighteen. On her birthday, when I arrived at their home, I felt a sudden aura the moment I stepped out of the car. Despite the quietness of my wolf, I knew the aura confirmed that Elisa was my mate. When I walked into the sitting room and met Elisa, I felt a sudden pull toward her, compell
Alpha Edward's POV“What did you say?” I wanted to be sure I wasn't hearing wrong. The young man held my gaze and looked me straight in the eye. “Elisa wasn't the one who saved you in the woods; she told me herself.” He repeated his words, and I shook my head in disbelief. That was impossible. That cannot be. The men who rescued me from the woods told me her name was Elisa. I even took them to their house, and they pointed at Elisa, confirming it was she. Then why would he stand here and look me straight in the eyes, telling me Elisa wasn't the young girl who saved me? Grabbing him by the collar of his chest, I glared right into his eyes, anger boiling inside of me. “Are you trying to fool me?” I asked through gritted teeth. Maybe he was lying to me.“I'm not,” the young man said, shaking his head. “I'm telling the truth, Alpha. Elisa wasn't the one who saved you. She told me herself. Besides, I know Elisa very well. Elisa cannot see a wounded man in the woods and wants to help. Rat
Amanda’s POV I could see the stunned look on his face the moment I landed the slap across his face. I could see disbelief in his eyes as he stared at me, not believing I had slapped him. But I didn’t regret slapping him; in fact, I would do it again and again. “Can your apology bring back my mother?” I yelled with bitterness. “Will it be able to bring my innocent mother back to life?” I spat with anger as my whole body shook with pain. How dare he think of apologizing? How dare he think a simple apology could fix everything? He has practically destroyed my life, and nothing on earth could pay for that. “Your mother?” Alpha Edward furrowed his brow at me. He didn’t seem angry that I had slapped him like I had expected him to be; rather, he seemed confused. “What are you talking about?” He acted confused, and that fueled my anger even more. Clutching my fists, I glared at him. “Do you now suffer from short memory that you don’t remember ordering the killing of my mother?” I spat with
Alpha Edward’s POVI paced in the living room as I waited for Matthew to arrive with Elisa's mother. I needed her confession and to make her look me in the eyes and confirm all that I had just been told. The door of the sitting room opened. Matthew walked in with the men who accompanied him. But Elisa's mother wasn’t with him.“Where is she?” I asked with a raised brow.“She has run away. I believe she knew we would come for her, so she ran away,” Matthew responded, and I growled. “Then we will have to send men to look for her; she cannot hide from us.” I grunted, and Matthew nodded.“I have already talked to the airport security; she hasn’t left the country yet, and if she attempts to leave, she will be caught,” he announced, and I nodded. “I will send hunters to go look for her. I believe she is not far.”I sighed and sat back on the couch; My head was pounding with a great headache.“But we brought someone,” Matthew announced, and I lifted my brow. “Who?” I asked curiously.“Go ge
“Are you nervous?” Liam, who was standing beside his father, asked as he noticed how anxious he seemed. Alpha Edward let out a soft chuckle and nodded. “A little nervous, yeah,” he admitted, and Liam gave his hand a gentle squeeze. “You shouldn’t be. Mommy is on her way.” Liam offered his father a comforting smile, and suddenly the music began playing, prompting everyone to stand. Looking ahead, Alpha Edward's breath hitched as he saw the most beautiful woman he had ever seen, dressed in a white wedding gown, being led toward him by her father. “Mine!” His wolf howled possessively and happily, causing tears to glisten in Alpha Edward's eyes. “You are so beautiful,” Alpha Edward whispered to Amanda through the mind link. She responded with a smile. “You look handsome and hot,” she whispered back, their gazes locked. They continued holding each other's gaze until Amanda was handed over to him by her father, her eyes filled with tears. It was a great joy to be marrying the m
Alpha Edward was about to leave his room for lunch when he heard a knock on the door. Before he could ask who it was, the door swung open, and Levi, his cousin, stepped inside. “What do you want? Haven’t you done enough?” Alpha Edward yelled, his anger surging at the sight of Levi. The mere presence of the man who had caused him so much grief made his blood boil. “Brother,” Levi called softly, his voice calm and unwavering despite the anger in Alpha Edward’s eyes. He knew his cousin was enraged, but he also knew Edward would never truly harm him; if he had wanted to, he would have done so long ago. “My things are downstairs. The driver is waiting for me, but I wanted to see you and apologize before I leave,” Levi pleaded, taking a tentative step closer to Alpha Edward. “I don’t need your apology, Levi. Just leave and never show your face to me again!” Alpha Edward grunted, turning away, his shoulders tense with unresolved anger. Suddenly, the door to the room opened again, an
Amanda’s POV “I’m so happy that you’re here. We didn’t have time to talk,” I said happily to my mother, who smiled and patted my shoulder. “I’m here now. Tell me what you want to know, my dear. I’ll be with you for the whole week,” she said, and my smile widened. It was a relief to have her here with me—very thoughtful of Alpha Edward to send for her. “I heard the case has been withdrawn, but don’t worry, I’ll deal with Killian in my own way,” my mother said, and I frowned. What could she possibly do to him? “Mother, what do you intend to do?” I asked curiously. She was silent for a moment before she smiled and tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. “Do you know about my abilities? Did Matthew tell you yet?” she asked, and I shook my head. I always knew there was something special about my mother—there was a fear in both Killian and Father’s eyes when she tried to attack Killian. “No, he hasn't told me,” I admitted, my curiosity piqued. “Maybe I should show you,” she sai
“I can’t wait anymore,” Amanda moaned between kisses before pulling away. Her hands trembled with desperation as she reached for his shirt, her fingers curling around his neck as she straddled his lap, her body flush against his. Edward’s hands gripped her hips instinctively, his touch firm and commanding, sending a rush of liquid heat pooling between her thighs.Without breaking eye contact, Amanda began undoing the buttons of his shirt with shaky fingers. Edward’s gaze never left hers, darkened with lust, his breath heavy and irregular as she bared his chest to her hungry eyes. His skin was hot beneath her touch, the hard muscles of his torso rippling with every breath he took.Her lips parted as she traced the contours of his chest, her fingers skimming down to his waistband, where she could feel the hard length of him straining against his pants. The desire to feel him, to have him inside her, was overwhelming, and she couldn’t stop the small, needy moan that escaped her lips.Edw
Amanda's POV It’s been two days since I came back from the hospital, and things have been just normal except for the constant urging of my wolf, wanting me to go have a talk with Alpha Edward. But I was stubborn; if anyone has to initiate a conversation, it has to be him, not me. A knock landed on my door, and when I asked the person in, I realized it was Liam holding a bouquet of flowers. “Momma, Dad said I should give you these,” Liam said, handing the bouquet of flowers to me, which I took with curiosity. “See you later.” Liam smiled widely at me before leaving. With a furrowed brow, I stared at the flowers before taking the note inside and reading it. “I saw these and thought of you.” A lump formed in my throat as I didn’t know how to react to the gesture. “Well, he is being romantic,” my wolf mumbled in my mind, but I rolled my eyes and inhaled the fascinating scent of the roses before dropping them on my bed. My thoughts went to Alpha Edward and why he had been avoiding
Alpha Edward's POV The sound of the car driving into the garage announced Amanda's arrival. I could feel the tension in my chest as I waited, knowing she would walk through those doors any moment now. After everything that had happened, this was my chance to show her how much she meant to me, even if I couldn’t fully express it in words. I had instructed the maids to decorate the mansion and Amanda's room in a way that would convey my feelings—something subtle yet meaningful. The foyer was adorned with fresh white roses, Amanda’s favorite, arranged in elegant vases that lined the entrance. The scent of the roses filled the air, creating a calming atmosphere. Soft candlelight flickered from various corners, casting a warm glow across the room. The maids had outdone themselves, hanging delicate white drapes from the ceiling that flowed down like a cascade of silk, giving the space an ethereal feel. As I heard the front door open, I stiffened. Her footsteps were soft but deliberate as
Amanda’s POVMy eyes widened at the scene before me. I couldn’t believe Matthew had just murdered Elisa's mother right in front of me. She was lying lifeless on the floor, blood gushing out of her head.Matthew looked my way, concern etched on his face. “Are you okay, sis?” he asked, and all I could do was stare at the lifeless body of Elisa's mom. Then, suddenly, a calm voice resounded in my mind.“Hello, Amanda, I’m your wolf.” The voice, which sounded like me, spoke, and my eyes widened. “My… wolf…”I stammered in shock. “Yes, Amanda, I have been here all this while. I was just subdued, but now I’m released. It's nice to finally talk to you,” she said, her voice so soothing.A tear fell down my cheek as I couldn’t believe it—I couldn’t believe I had my wolf.“Amanda, you’re crying?” Matthew said, noticing my tears. With tear-filled eyes, I looked up at Matthew, not knowing how to gather my words. “My… wolf. My wolf is released,” I announced to Matthew, who smiled and hugged me.“Ye
Alpha Edward's POV“What are you even saying, Edward?” Matthew frowned, clearly not agreeing with my idea.“You heard the doctor; she has just a few minutes left. We have to do something,” I murmured, fear and concern gripping me.“And you think giving up your life is the best solution? You think I’ll just stand by and watch you do that?” he spat with pain and anger. “Amanda is my sister, but you are my friend, my brother, and my Alpha, and I will not let you do this, never!” Matthew said in a tone of finality, his voice breaking with emotion.A tear dropped down my cheek at the complication of the situation. Amanda’s life was in danger, and we had little time to save her.“We have to return to the mansion,” Matthew said, causing me to raise a brow at him. “A guard just informed me through telepathy that the witch, Elisa’s mom, is screaming at the top of her voice that she can save Amanda,” Matthew revealed, causing my eyes to widen.“Alpha, we have to go back. Let’s go see her,” Matt
Alpha Edward’s POVA sudden pain struck my chest, causing me to exclaim, which caught Aunt’s attention. “Are you okay?” she asked worriedly as she moved closer to me, but I couldn’t respond. Instead, I closed my eyes as the pain continued to linger. “Should we send for a healer?” Aunt asked again, but I still didn’t respond. With my eyes closed, I thought of Amanda, and an uncomfortable, strange feeling hit me. “Edward, are you okay?” Aunt kept asking, but I didn’t respond until I heard heavy footsteps approaching the sitting room. When I opened my eyes, I saw some guards, looking worried. “Alpha, an accident has happened,” a guard announced, and my eyes widened. “Amanda!” My breath hitched in my chest. “The car got into an accident, Alpha. It’s serious, but they’ve been rushed to the hospital,” the guard added, and fear gripped me even more. “No, no, take me to the hospital,” I ordered, fear and panic consuming my entire being. The guards wheeled me out of the sitting room and
