All Chapters of The Alpha's Cursed Mate: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

The sharp sweet smell of mint wafted into my nostrils as I emerged from the bottom of the lake and I breathed it in greedily. Meadow Lake was indeed a gift from the gods because no scenery on earth could match this paradise. As I floated on the surface of the water, I couldn’t help but admire its skyline's silver colour. The wide span of Tuscany-blue sky, the surrounding hills, the waterfall and the old giant Douglas fir trees gave me a eureka moment. It was here alone that I found solace. I closed my eyes to breathe the freshness in and my heart bobbed at my most cherished sound, the shimmering emptiness of space.Exactly this day, about seventeen years ago, I lost Mother. I never got to meet her because I was the cause of her death. She died birthing me and rumour has it that that day was foreseen by pack mother to be a day of atrocity. The elders of the pack said while my mother was in labour, the pack mother(the eldest and wisest mother wolf) refused to tend to her, instead she ke

Kaya’s POV“Happy Birthday to you,Happy Birthday to You,Happy Birthday to dear Sara….Happy birthday to you”The sing-song voices of a group of people echoed in the open field as they wished the tall blonde a happy birthday. A handsome brunette stood beside holding her by the waist and the couple seemed to be caught up in their world. He bent to whisper something into her ear causing her to flush and he throw his head back in a booming laughter of delight.Sara had found her mate right before she came of age, most of the pack members within the age of eighteen had found their mates. I could feel the happiness in the air and sadly I couldn’t associate with it.Bile rose up in my throat as I couldn’t recall any childhood memory of my birthday celebrated or even getting a birthday cake and wishes.My eighteenth birthday was yesterday and life was still unkind to me. The hopes of my father showing up on my birthday had dwindled at this point. I was utterly alone.As I watched the displa

Kaya's Pov"Do something." Tyler’s voice boomed.I felt the salutary inch towards me to examine me. I was too weak to move, my muscled screamed out of fatigue and pain.“Say something” Tyler’s voice grew impatient."Alpha, you need to back up a little,” the salutary talked tenderly, expressing himself shrewdly.I felt the salutary’s hands on my neck causing me to groan in pain.In an instant, Tyler was beside me and his emotions were all over the place. I could sense that he was angry, worried and frightened…?.“What do you think you are doing” Tyler’s voice boomed“I am helping, I promise,” voiced the salutary wobbly.The salutary pulled my cloth off and mentioned something about hypothermia.He checked my pulse and later proceeded to place a soft silicone medical sensor on my body to examine me properly.I could sense the mix of emotions in the air, Tyler’s emotions. It was a mix of impatience laced with anger and at the same time what seemed like concern.“Was he concerned about me

Kaya’s PovThere is truly no place like home I mumbled heaving a sign of relief as Tyler unlocked my door to let us in. Through the window, I could see the vibrant glow of a full moon. The favourite feature of my room is the window; it was a regular picture window but I had the most spectacular view of Meadow Lake. It gave the room a surreal feel. Every evening when I stare at the moon, I ponder on the existence of the moon goddess, Was she even real or was she a myth? I understand that it's in our werewolf nature to have faith in her, but I couldn't help but wonder if she was aware of me or what I was going through. I've been used to living alone all my life. After leaving foster care when I came of age, I was assigned a room where I’ve lived alone for a pretty long time because no one wanted to be assigned the same room I was in and frankly I enjoyed having my own space where I felt safe after a difficult day. Aside from the locket my mum gifted me; my room was the other thing t

Kaya's povI stared at the ceiling as I pondered on the things going on in my life at the moment. It all seemed to move too fast for me. No doubt I had always wished for a protector, someone I could rely on, someone I could relate with but all these felt too unreal.Just a week ago, I was the Trio’s punching bag, the pack's weirdo but now, I am supposedly the Alpha’s mate. His touch made my skin feel alive, I have never felt this strange but I had to decide not to give in to him. All I know is that he could abandon me any instant, I mean why on earth would an Alpha choose me? I turned to the wall where the countdown to my elopement was marked and took a deep breath. That was it, I had to run away. Away from all of this, from the hassle, I had to be strong for me.A light knock on the door brought me back to reality, it was Tyler. I asked him to come in and adjusted to a sitting position. There was something different about the air around him. It felt bizarre.“Mind if I sit?” He asked
