THE TRUTH IS UNVEILED

Kiara’s POV My heart stopped beating when Kevin bit me. All those efforts, sacrifices; all that suffering was for nothing if I couldn’t even keep Kevin safe.I was about to give Kevin the antidote in panic. Thankfully Nivaan figured out that he was alright on time. I didn’t know what happened to make Kevin immune to my poison… Was it because he was bitten earlier… or was it something else… I was just glad that he was safe.I laced my fingers through his as we sat side by side on the plain bed of the tent. He brushed my cheeks with the back of his hand and said, “I want to know the truth, Kiara….”I raised my eyebrows slightly and said, “You have already marked me… why would you need my permission to know the truth… go ahead and seek it out…”His face flushed red and he lowered his eyes, “I don’t know what came over me… It

FINDING A CURE

Despicable Mate/Apratyashita Thakur

KEVIN’S POV My heart fluttered as I watched Kiara sleep. She looked so peaceful and calm; unlike the other times. Now that I knew the truth, I felt like crap that I hadn’t tried harder to find out the truth. How did I not see that my mate was in so much pain?“Kevin, Can we have a word?” Nivaan’s voice was bland as he beckoned me to follow outside. It was difficult to figure out if he was happy or angry by his tone.‘Let us do this.’ I encouraged myself mentally and followed him outside. I really hoped that he would at least give me a chance to prove that I could be a good mate.Clearing my throat, I said; “I know I failed big time, Nivaan… I shouldn’t have rejected her without investigating the matter. it might be difficult for you to forgive me. All I ask is that you give me a chance to prove myself. I don’t know what I would…”Nivaan burst out laugh

BRUTAL DESTINY

Despicable Mate/Apratyashita Thakur

KEVIN’S POV The next day I visited the City Hospital with Collins and some of my men. We had arranged for fake documents to get the equipment. Once it was all loaded in the truck. I went to meet the doctor and lured him out.We shoved him into the large van, strapped him up, and drove to the packhouse. The journey home was a quiet one but a storm was brewing in my mind.I had never broken any law before but today… today I was kidnapping a doctor against his will.“Where the hell are you taking me?” The doctor stuttered between gasps, the moment we took off the tape from his mouth. My heart twisted with guilt looking at his pale expression. This was the man who had saved my mate’s life but I had no choice but to imprison him here.Blood trickling down his left wrist caught my attention. Collins must have gripped him a bit too tight.“I will take it from here,” I command

CRASHING THE CEREMONY

Despicable Mate/Apratyashita Thakur

KIARA’S POV “Kiara, are you alright?” Adrian asked, as he sat beside me on a boulder.Keeping my gaze fixated on the blue water of the lake, I grunted in response. I didn’t really feel like talking to anyone.“There is still time you know… the unification ceremony will be held after the moon rises… Kevin asked me to give you this letter…” He said, thrusting a letter in my hand.My lips pursed into a thin line as I crumpled the paper and threw it into the lake. I just didn’t have the courage to have my heart broken again … I had accepted that Kevin and I were not meant to be together…Adrian exhaled deeply and said, “I don’t know why you decided let Kevin marry someone else but I do know how much it hurts to stay away from the one you love… if you love Kevin you should accept his proposal and crash the ceremony!”Damn! It wa

ONE LESS PACK TO CONSIDER

Despicable Mate/Apratyashita Thakur

KIARA’S POV The look on Kevin’s face was priceless when I slapped him. I didn’t want to do this but this was the best way to draw everyone’s attention. Now, they would be forced to listen to me.‘Don’t speak a single word. Let me handle this.’ I had just mouthed these words when Cami pulled my hair and dragged me away from Kevin. She roared in an infuriated voice, “What do you think of yourself, Kiara? How dare you try to ruin my special day? I am the Luna of this pack. If you don’t leave immediately I will have you killed!”I grasped her hand and twisted it behind her back. I snorted and bit back, “Haven’t you learned that wishful thinking leads you nowhere? I was chosen by the moon goddess as Kevin’s mate. So the position of the Luna of this pack belongs to me.”“I can’t believe that you both are fighting like wild cats. Stop it

NOT THE MOST ROMANTIC PLACE

Despicable Mate/Apratyashita Thakur

KEVIN’S POV I bit the inside of my cheek trying to stop the smile that was threatening to light up my face. I know I should be more sensitive but I had no control over what I was feeling. I felt as if I had gotten a new lease on life.The moment father left, I set out in search of Kiara. I bumped into her near the fountain. My breath caught in my throat as I looked at her.“You look so beautiful…,” I whispered placing a light kiss on her cheeks.Her eyes widened. She looked around warily and dragged me to the dungeon.“Not the most Romantic place, is it?” I said as she pulled me to sit beside her on the narrow table.“I know but I don’t want anyone to barge in on us while we are talking.”She halted for a moment. Her face flushed slightly and she chewed her lower lips before saying, “I am so sorry… I shouldn’t have slapped you…”

KEVIN DESERVES BETTER

Despicable Mate/Apratyashita Thakur

KIARA’S POV I was stunned to see Dr. Grimson in the dungeon. He looked so scared and helpless. He was the one who took care of me in the hospital. He gave me hope in despair. He taught me that our life’s purpose could extend beyond selfish goals. He inspired me to take care of the ones in need. I couldn’t let him suffer even if it meant fighting with all the Gilkins.I knew I could convince him to help us willingly. I led him to the packhouse intending to take him to the room I used while I was here but was stopped at the entrance.“Where do you think you are going?” Cami said placing her hands on the either side of the doorway to block me.“I am taking Doctor Grimson to my room…”She snorted and shook her head before saying, “YOUR room? Alpha Gilkins has just postponed the wedding. He didn’t permit you to live here…”I gave her hand a slight shove an

LIGHTHEARTED SQUABBLE

Despicable Mate/Apratyashita Thakur

KEVIN’S POV The next morning when I woke up, I almost expected Kiara to have gone missing. Last night was so beautiful and fulfilling that I was afraid I had dreamt it all up. My heart started beating erratically when I saw Kiara still sleeping beside me.I leaned against my hand as I gazed at her angelic face. My heart filled with so much warmth and love that I was afraid it would burst.I removed the strands of hair from her forehead and stuck them behind her ears. She groaned as her eyes flew open. Her face flushed and she pulled the blanket over her face…It felt a bit strange to see her shy away from me. I had always thought of her as a bold woman who knew what she wanted. I pulled the sheet down and kissed her forehead.She sat up suddenly, putting a halt to my other romantic endeavors. She rubbed her eyes and said, “What is the time?”“It is just seven in the morning, why?”

KNIGHT IN SHINING SUIT

Despicable Mate/Apratyashita Thakur

KIARA’S POV About eight to nine men with heavy guns were guarding the warehouse. It would be foolish to attack them.“Nivaan, You, Kevin, and Adrian talk to those guards and distract them. Valence and I will sneak inside and check this place out.”The moment those words left my mouth, Kevin had grabbed me by the shoulders. He glared at me and spat, “There is no way I will let you go inside!”I would have gotten angry with him for trying to be controlling but his protective attitude made me feel cherished. So, I decided to let it slide. Drawing in a deep breath, I looked at him with pleading eyes. “This is the best plan we have, Kevin. If something goes wrong Valence will teleport me back to the camp…”“Kiara is right, Kevin. This seems to be our best bet. I would have let you accompany Kiara but I need your help. I can’t distract so many guards alone. We need to work as

PERSUADING THE DOCTOR

Despicable Mate/Apratyashita Thakur

KIARA’S POV Warmth flowed through me as a hand was placed on my shoulder. I didn’t have to look up to figure out that it was Kevin.I jumped to my feet and turned around so that I was facing him. My lips pursed into a thin line as I took his hand in mine. “I am so sorry, Kevin. We were a bit late… those b******s gave father the vile potion…”He rubbed the pad of his thumb against my chin and said, “Hey! Don’t worry love. Vally can help us with that…”Then he went and sat beside his father. Squeezing his hands, Kevin said in a shaking voice, “You scared me today… I don’t know what I would have done if anything had happened to you…”Kevin’s father massaged his head and said, “ You should probably move away from me… For some reason, I have this intense urge to bite someone…”“Hell No, this can&rs
