Trap The Mateless Alpha 116-The Drama Show
Raymond didn't reach the Alpha house.Killian contacted him when he was on his way back about "the hybrid situation", and Raymond got a new line of address.That led him to the scene in front of him now--On the stage of the Circus Theater, which apparently is a secret lair of the mages in his city, stood Ava and Sara, both in long black ropes as if worried people couldn't recognize their mage identity. And under the stage was Evelyn, who was leaning against the stage's wooden floor with her arms folded in front of her.Killian snapped his finger when Raymond came in, and the huge gate locked behind him.They were the only guests of the theater tonight.[Mages.] Sysiphus sniffed as Raymond walked in, and with a fast glance around, Raymond spotted several mages hiding around the corners of the theater. Some in the shadows, and others with hiding spells.They couldn't hide from an Alpha, but maybe that was what Killian WANT Raymond to know--That they were surrounded by Killian's men.R

A light laugh escaped Killian."Annie?" Killian heard Raymond's shocked gasp and his lips curved into an eloquent smile, "You have got it wrong, Alpha. Her name is Scarlett Walters, or, after her marriage, Scarlett Black."Raymond: "!"Evelyn gripped Raymond's arm nervously when he looked over with inquiring eyes."Even if she really is the person you claim her to be, which she is not," Raymond paused as he approached the stage slowly, adding, "She is a member of my pack, and this time, she HAS pledged her loyalty to me."With the ritual of pledging to an Alpha, one will officially appear in the pack's mindlink web. Killian couldn't risk going against Raymond this lightly."Raymond..." Rarely, Killian didn't use his usual hypocritical politeness, "I understand that this is your city, but we have our laws, and she was our traitor first before she joined your pack. I can't just..."Raymond frowned, but he stopped because he could tell Killian meant well.[Kitten cares about her. We can'

Killian paused a second before he put his cane down.The situation was too tense and he knew the consequences of challenging an Alpha."Free my pack witch, mage!" Sysiphus grunted in his low rough voice. The mages on the stage all looked angry, but Killian raised a hand and silenced them.Sysiphus might not be able to kill all of them instantly, but Killian knew there was no chance for his men to take down Sysiphus either."I didn't mean to start a war, Alpha," Killian bowed politely to Sysiphus before he slightly waved his cane, and instantly the handcuffs on Scarlett dropped.Evelyn had to bite her lips to stop herself from shouting "Mom". She could only grab Raymond's arm and watched Scarlett stand up slowly with tears rolling down her face."As for Ava..." Killian looked at Sysiphus with a cautious tone. If Evelyn lied, then Killian had to maintain a good relationship with Ava; and if Evelyn didn't lie, then Killian had to deal with Ava's crime -- lying to the coven.Either way, Ki

Evelyn gasped in shock, when Ava did the same and flinched away from the Alpha instead of going up to help. Ava dodged into Scarlett's arms for safety."P-pleaze..." Tears broke out. Sara couldn't speak right with her cheeks clenched between the Alpha's powerful fingers. Real fear occupied her eyes because she could tell the Alpha really could, and wanted to crush her head!"You severed your tie with the kitten when you drained her blood, remember?" Sysiphus didn't let go, but added forces to Sara's face, and she could feel her teeth moving under the tremendous force, "I saved her by giving her my blood, so technically, it's my blood running through her veins, not yours. And the next time you even dare talk in her direction, I'm gonna rip off your tongue and smash your head, is that clear?"Sara could only nod with tears popping out of her eyes.Criminal or what, Sara was now considered the coven's witch. But Killian ignored Sysiphus's threat as if that didn't hurt the coven's dignity

Feeling much safer, Ava let go of Scarlett, and everyone went on their own way.Didn't know how to face Scarlett, Evelyn called shutgun and pretended to sleep on their way back.Scarlett remained silent, too.Evelyn escaped to her own room before Raymond could even give the car keys to the butler, and she dived into the bathtub with her door locked and stayed in there until the water was so cold that she started shivering.It was a bath with a horrible start and a worse ending.She knew there was no reason for her to be upset. But she was. She felt unfair that both Scarlett and Sara loved Ava. She felt unfair that Scarlett forgot Ava's ugly betrayal and forgot the love Evelyn finally earned. And knowing that Scarlett lost that memory because of her made Evelyn feel even worse!The worst part was, Evelyn felt like she stole Scarlett from Ava. And she knew she wanted to if she had the chance.Scarlett loved Ava so much even though they just met! If Scarlett didn't find Ava when the Blac

In a second she almost felt like she was back at the empty but warm Alpha house, with her annoying brother and her loving adopted mother.She blinked fast to stop her tears as she shook her head: "It was alright..."Scarlett let out a gentle laugh as she pulled Evelyn into her arms, and Evelyn landed her chin on her mom cautiously."You are a brave girl," Scarlett cuddled Evelyn, "but you don't have to be in front of me."Evelyn didn't even dare to ask why, afraid she would break the spell. So she just nodded. She wanted to nod anyway!It was only with her two moms that she could be a normal child. A child that was cared for. Not a wolfless orphan who has to protect herself all the time.Feeling her tears rolling down, Evelyn knew she had wet Scarlett's clothes, and she closed her eyes in desperation. She had no good excuse for it -- how DO you explain that you burst into tears for a hug from a stranger?But Scarlett's words shocked her yet again: "I would have done the same if it was

Ever since she understood what "mate" meant, Evelyn had been in love with Raymond.But never had she ever imagined that it could stop being a too-luxurious dream that she couldn't afford. She never imagined that one day she could stop suppressing her feelings toward that man, and got asked by her big brother and loving mother that "do you like the Alpha".Of course she did!But even in her wildest dream she didn't expect such a twist, and that made her wrist too heavy to knock when she finally made it to Raymond's door. She didn't even know how she got out of her room in Scarlett's gentle smile and James's taunting smirk. She got there almost like sleepwalking.She knocked. The sound was so loud that Evelyn panicked and wanted to flee.But Raymond was faster.Before Evelyn could even turn he opened the door. He was a little surprised, but then a smile appeared on his face. Evelyn froze there, staring at him like a scared prey caught in the predator's lair.In the end, it was Raymond

The days following the night of her first kiss -- first conscious kiss -- with the Alpha were like a dream to Evelyn.The pack members were all stunned when all of a sudden their Alpha started carrying Evelyn around in his arms everywhere he went. It was like she was his newly found favorite toy. The people were stunned because they didn't feel the claim in the pack bond, but soon they got used to it.Evelyn didn't even get used to it this fast. It was the day before their wedding that Evelyn realized--That kiss was their official claim.Yes. Raymond had been busy planning their wedding these days.To werewolves, the wedding ceremony was not a must. They only do it because they are hiding among the humans. The true ritual is the claim before marking each other. The marking would then replace the mate bond, and bond their souls together, forever this time.Was that even a claim? But how normal a claim could she get when her wolf was sleeping and Raymond's wolf couldn't feel the mate b

Trap The Mateless Alpha Bonus 1 Willa's Complaint
Raymond has been working overnight for days.[Eve, why was the big bad wolf working late again last night? I miss him!] Willa nudges Evelyn in boredom, demanding. Like Evelyn missing Raymond, Willia misses Sysiphus and maybe more. The spell's breaking restored the memory of Scarlett, James and Raymond, and Evelyn suddenly got all her family and friends back with no life-threatening risk hanging over her head.But that isn't the case for Willa. She is clean like a newborn baby and the only one she knows now is Sysiphus. Not to mention, Sysiphus adores Willa like no one else. Willa would only talk to him and Evelyn, not even Raymond.Things were so great for a month or two after Sysiphus marked Evelyn, but then he suddenly got busy, and so did everyone else. Though they see each other at breakfast, that had been their only chance to see each other in a whole day.[I'm sure we can see him tonight, it's Friday after all,] Evelyn rubs her forehead, getting a headache from the baby that had
Trap The Mateless Alpha 135 Epilogue
Raymond came early.He didn't dare take more people against Killian's request, but he sent men to monitor all the mages in the city when he came to the warehouse hours early and lurked around. When it was reported to him that several important members of the coven disappeared, he knew something was wrong.So he woke up Sysiphus and came close to the house, only in time to hear Killian's words.Killian: "I can explain..."But Sysiphus wasn't in the mood to hear.[You can't go in rage right now!] Raymond was watching Sysiphus carefully in his mind, ready to take control at any moment, [I told you she would be in a bad condition, and you--][I have learned my lesson, Raymond, I won't lose it. I went into deep sleep because I was worried about the witch's mate bond spell, but not now when I see my mate with my own eyes.] Sysiphus answered calmly, his eyes landing gently on the white wolf floating in the air.The shade of cocky that had always been in his voice was gone, replaced by an earn
Trap The Mateless Alpha 134 Killian's Plan
Killian persuaded Ava to use the same warehouse where she peeled off Mathilda's wolf.He saw real fear in Ava's eyes and he knew to Ava, the moon goddess truly existed and that Ava really believed she wouldn't be protected in that warehouse by her goddess.But why stains two places on the earth when she obviously enjoyed peeling off wolves, right? She might do more in the future. This logic persuaded Ava.Right now there they were. Ava and Killian, standing in the dusty, empty, abandoned warehouse, with Evelyn between them in a magic bubble, covered in burnt scars, barely alive.There was only one beam of moonlight throw the window, and Killian put Evelyn right under it.Ava kept her distance -- she had developed a moonlight-phobia since Mathilda. Killian glanced at his watch before he bowed to Ava: "Would you want me to do the honor?"Ava shook her head. It was so scary last time, and she couldn't even imagine how she pulled that off all on her own. But this time she felt a frantic
Trap The Mateless Alpha 133 Killian's Betrayal
For four days straight Evelyn was kept in a magic bubble, naked.Fire would burn her skin crispy before ice froze her limbs. Then again, and again. Until she was at the edge of death, and that was when the mage guarding her would heal her wounds to prevent her death.And then a new cycle of fire and ice.Every day Ava would come visit Evelyn with only one question: where is your totem?Ava saw Evelyn's power. It was a much more pure and strong magic than anything Ava had ever seen. Maybe Killian's was stronger, but his power wasn't as pure.Ava wanted Evelyn's power. She had been stealing from Evelyn all her life -- she stole Evelyn's mother, father, identity...Everything! Why not this one more thing? Sara stole Scarlett's power successfully!But Evelyn wouldn't budge. Even at the edge of death she never begged. There were a few times when Evelyn tried to take her own life, and Ava had to add more men on guard just so they wouldn't kill Evelyn by accident.Evelyn really wanted death.
Trap The Mateless Alpha 132 A True Leader
Midnight, a warehouse.Killian stood in the darkest corner of the warehouse where Mathilda's wolf was peeled off her, waiting.Raymond slipped a piece of paper into his collar when Raymond grabbed his collar before punching him in the face. He only realized that when Raymond patted over it. On the note were these words--[Midnight, THE warehouse]Even now Killian was still shocked at how far Raymond really could see.Raymond saw through Ava's whole plan when he didn't even have magic! He tricked everyone when he accused Ava of the crimes Evelyn was supposed to have done, so they all thought Raymond was only there to clear Evelyn's name when--What Raymond wanted was to meet Killian without anyone's attention!The depth of Raymond's plan made Killian's blood run cold. Once again he felt fear for what an awful enemy Raymond would be.No doors moved, nor any windows. But suddenly Raymond walked out from a shadow into the center of the room. His head held up high and he was looking at the
Trap The Mateless Alpha 131 Raymond's Rebuttal
Ava never loved Raymond, but it didn't mean that she didn't want to conquer him. The man who every girl in the city admired, how could Ava not want him?! But all he ever gave her was insult and humiliation! Finally she got power and she even stole Evelyn from him, but this man just wouldn't submit in front of her! How dare he?!"You kill me now without me accepting your rejection, then you can never have another mate in your life," Raymond threatened with a serious tone, but instead of looking worried, Ava lay back with a cocky smile.Raymond curved his lips."What are you laughing at?!" Ava's face twisted -- the annoying Alpha! She hated his arrogant confidence!"I'm laughing at how simple you are. It's so easy to read you," Raymond shook his head slowly, taunting Ava with a smirk, "I just threatened you with a life of no mate, yet you don't look afraid at all. You should at least act, because now I know--"Ava held her breath without realizing it because she was nervous that Raymon
Trap The Mateless Alpha 130 The Alpha Is Back
Raymond finally woke up on the fifth day after Sysiphus went in rage.Mathilda dropped the glass in her hand when she noticed his finger twitching: "Raymond? Raymond! Oh my God! Someone! He's awake!!!"James came first, followed by Emma and Scarlett. Theo was called to the Alpha house later that day, but Mathilda didn't let him in until Raymond's mind cleared up late in the afternoon.Raymond wasn't in a good shape though--Sysiphus was still in rage, trapped in deep sleep. Sysiphus was hurt too badly and couldn't wake up, but somehow he managed to give control before he went into deep sleep to heal. Or else Raymond couldn't have woken up yet."Where is Evelyn?" Raymond asked James, his tone calm with a shade of desperation.He knew a lot of horrible things would have been happening to Evelyn while he was trapped, but he had to face it.Sysiphus took the most hit, yes, but Raymond was the one suffering the most. He saw through the situation earlier than anyone, and yet he was trapped
Trap The Mateless Alpha 129 Theo's Rage
Suffered through so much: getting a rejection, refusing a rejection, and then watching his beloved little sister suffering the devastating scar, but none of them hurt Sysiphus more than Evelyn's few simple words.Evelyn didn't expect that in the end, it was her own words that pushed Sysiphus into rage!Bursting into a painful growl, Sysiphus lost it and shifted under rage. He charged in Evelyn's direction and instantly everyone reacted. The mages shot all colors of beams at him while his own wolves followed him and tried to stop their Alpha -- their most powerful warrior in rage.Of course they failed.Werewolves flew out from Sysiphus's hits like leaves in the autumn winds, and the beams shot by the mages didn't seem to even get Sysiphus's attention.With a loud growl, James shifted the same time Sysiphus did and jumped in front of Evelyn and finally he stopped Sysiphus inches before Sysiphus could reach Evelyn.[Leave! He can't think!] James mindlinked Evelyn, [He could hurt anyone
Trap The Mateless Alpha 128 Evelyn's Confession
Evelyn froze where she was before anger burst into flames in her chest."You did what?!" Evelyn hissed under her breath, not sure if she heard Ava right. Her voice and her body shook under anger, too. She knew Ava was evil, but she never thought Ava would commit the worst crime there is!Peeling off the wolf spirit from a werewolf! It's like castrating a soldier captured in a war, like raping an underage girl in front of her family. You don't do that, not even in a war!How dare she?!Tears of pain burned Evelyn's eyes, and for the first time in her life she felt the urge to kill. She wanted Ava dead! She wanted to see regret and horror in those vicious laughing eyes and she wanted to inflict pain!Ridiculous that Ava did all this just to reveal that she had magic, but if that was what Ava wanted, then fine! Evelyn raised bother her palms and walked up to face Ava, like the death goddess with the power of life and death in her hands!Ava curved her lips, but she avoided Evelyn -- she
