CHAPTER NINETY ONE

MAVERICKTHE BLACKWOOD MANOR"Orla, stop it." I didn't want to say the words, but I had to. I would never forgive myself if I took advantage of her in such a way. "Please, stop."Her fingers ran down my chest, my abdomen, and stopped at the waistband of my shorts. She looked like an angel as she sat atop me, watching me with heavy lidded eyes."Why?" The question came out so innocently. If I didn't know any better I would have thought that she wasn't the same person that had been seductively pressing herself against me for the past five minutes."I can't let you do this."Her face scrunched up, and she looked genuinely hurt by my words. "You don’t . . . want me?"I shook my head. "I didn't mean it like that, sweetheart." My member throbbed painfully, a reminder that if I didn't get away from her soon, I would end up doing the very thing I didn't want to. I shifted slightly to get comfortable, but only ended up bringing her right atop it.She gasped. "Oh." Her cheeks reddened even more

CHAPTER NINETY TWO

MAVERICK THE BLACKWOOD MANORIt was well into the day, evening rather, and I was still tending to Orla's fever. Everett had long since abandoned me, talking about having an important assignment that he couldn't miss.Orla's symptoms, as we'd expected, had grown in intensity so much that she became near unconscious at one point, retching and shivering. All through those episodes I stayed there with her, bringing a bucket when necessary, and checking her temperature as often as I could.It was a relief when her fever finally broke, and her system started to cool down. In total, her heat lasted for about four to five hours.I sighed, settling into my seat by the bed after checking her temperature and dabbing her forehead one last time. She looked too peaceful. She normally had a calm disposition, but this one was forced. I didn’t like it. I wanted her to open her eyes and start talking, even if it was to argue with me.A knock came on the door and I told them to come inside.The two in

CHAPTER NINETY THREE

AUTHOR'S POVFLASHBACK: OVER 15 YEARS AGOA REASON FOR VENGEANCEUnlike most alphas who were simply born into the role and destined to inherit it when they were old enough, Angus Darke, Orla's father, had to fight his way to get the position. This was because he was the youngest son out of four male children, and so even his father didn't think that he would have been able to ascend. All the grooming and training was focused on his eldest brother, who showed a lot of promise.Until the day he died. Some said he had contracted some kind of plague that could affect werewolves, others thought that he was poisoned. So many rumors flew about then, and even he couldn't decipher which was true and which was simply a well told lie. All he knew was that since he was dead, someone else would have to step up as the next heir.Naturally, the role fell to the next in line, the second born. He, unlike his predecessor, wasn't as skilled, but Angus' father believed that he would grow into the role. A

CHAPTER NINETY FOUR

ORLATHE BLACKWOOD MANORAt some point, the darkness freed me and allowed me to open my eyes and move my limbs. I looked around, trying to get my bearings and escape that first ten seconds of post sleep confusion.The first person I saw was slumped over in his seat, balancing awkardly on one side with his chin resting on his palm. The sight made him look so . . . ordinary, so effortlessly harmless, that I had an urge to draw nearer to him.My leg dragged against the bed, making a soft scratching noise that shouldn't have woken anyone up from sleep.He jerked up from the chair,amd rubbed his eyes with his hands. "You're awake.""You stayed here with me?" I asked, surprised. I'd heard that head also took a toll on the men as well. "Even though you were probably affected as well?""Of course."The memories of how I'd acted the day before flooded my mind, filling me with a faint twinge of shame. I'd been completely and utterly ready to give myself away to him, not even bothering to preser

CHAPTER NINETY FIVE

ORLATHE DARKE RESIDENCE"So we finally have a wedding to plan. Thank goodness, I thought you were going to keep running in circles around him for ages," Ella said, sprawled over my bed and tracting something in the air with her finger.I, who was lying by her side, smiled, even though she couldn't see my face.To be honest, the whole prospect of finally getting married to him both excited and scared me. I actually wanted to be with him, yes, but it was still surrounded by uncertainty. For one, we still hadn't found Ryker's father, as well as Makila. How terrible would it have been for one of them to show up now?Although, deep inside of me, there was this ominous feeling that clung to my chest with a terrible vengeance. The feeling that I could sleep and wake up to my house on fire or even worse.My parents had recovered from the whole Ophelia episode, but the wounds inflicted on one's heart can be more powerful than any kind of physical injury or scar. Unfortunately, such wounds we

CHAPTER NINETY SIX

MAVERICKTHE BLACKWOOD MANORSoon, oke of the things I'd always wanted for myself would finally come to pass. I would finally have the honor of marrying the woman of my dreams. The 'yes' she had uttered still rung at the back of my mind, and was the furst thing I heard before I slept and when I woke up.I didn’t think I had ever known so much joy. I needed someone to pour out all my joy to, lest it made me combust.I hadn't seen Everett in a couple of days now. I had been checking up on him regularly, but he always seemed to.either be hiding something or had some information thatbhe didn't feel like divulging to me. It was a little hutful thay we'd known each other for years, and he still could keep secrets from me. I wanted to protect his privacy, but it made little sense to me.I went up to his room, where hedbeen mostly holed up those days, and knocked on the door. Maybe giving him the latest news, even if he didn't ask for it, would have been the best way of getting his attention

CHAPTER NINETY SEVEN

AUTHOR'S POVEverett came awake in a dark room. The damp, musty smell of the place hit him first, throwing him into a state of disorientation. For the first couple of minutes, he actually couldn't remember why or who he was, and why his nose kept coming across the most pungent smell ever. Something about the odor threw him off and activated his gag reflex.Rot. Blood. Flesh.His skin crawled in tandem with the flood of memories that assaulted his still awakening mind.He shot up to his feet wildly, remembering everything that had brought him here—wherever 'here' was. He had to find an exit, but first he needed to be able to understand where he was in the first place. His leg and foot slammed into wet, sticky things whenever he moved, and with every sickening squelch he felt, it made him get even more nervous.After a whole lot of struggling and tripping over more oddly shaped things that he couldn't decipher, he finally came into contact with a wall. There, he fumbled around, sear

CHAPTER NINETY EIGHT

AUTHOR'S POVTHE DARK RESIDENCE, THE SECRET DUNGEONSRyker traced a single line down the wall with a claw. Another etch to mark how long he had been down in the cells.

His mate was gone, his absentee father seemed to have forgotten him, and he was trapped in a dungeon and left to rot.Deep down, he stewed in the magnitude of his actions and life choices. If he had been a smarter person, he would have been abke to see through his father's half-truths even as he went on his quest for vengeance.

CHAPTER NINETY NINE

MAVERICKTHE BLACKWOOD MANORWe gathered in my study, which had officially become the perfect spot for serious conversations. The 'we' included Makila, Orla, and myself. Makila still hadn't acquired the use of her abilities yet, and I made sure to always have the mixture with me at all times in case she ever suddenly got them back.Looking directly at her face made my skin crawl with discomfort, especially her hauntingly blue eyes that seemed to have a soft glow coming from them. I never envisioned myself casually sitting down in a room with my parents' murderer without actively trying to kill or execute her. It was why I wished that sometimes, I was a ruthless bastard that didn't care about much else in the world apart from my desires.Luckily for me, Orla was here as well, sending comforting glances my way. I'd opened up to her about my traumatic past with Makila, so she understood why I probably acted a certain way when it came to the witch.Light filtered into the large windows

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED

ORLAAfter Makila’s ominous declaration, I returned home, eager to check up on my parents. If there was one thing I'd been doing right so far, it was keeping them alive. I had already promised myself that indeed, they would survive this lifetime, and I wouldn't have to mourn them.My mom had fully recovered from her wounds, while my dad, although much better, still had like a few days to proper recovery. My mom didn't mind taking care of him though, and I was of the opinion that loving care was the best path to a quick recovery.I went to their bedroom and greeted them, assessing them for little while. Mom was feeding dad some vegetables, gently pausing to caress his face lovingly every so once in a while. The scene was indeed pure and worth seeing. A love that still burned brightly even after years had passd.Mom looked up from her husband and smiled at me. "Oh, Orla dear. You're back?"I nodded. "I came to check on both of you." I nodded to my dad. "How are you doing?"His smile w
