All Chapters of Fated Mate: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

At the Blood Moon throne room, Alpha Duncan was fuming with anger and pacing from one end of the room to another. The Luna his mother, sat calmly watching him react to the news she just broke. She knew how upset he was but it was time for him to know the truth. As Duncan's pacing slowed, she spoke softly, "I understand this is difficult, but we must consider the welfare of our pack.""The welfare of our pack? Did you just say... I am the one getting into some loveless marriage, not the entire pack?" Duncan's voice was filled with incredulity and frustration as he halted his pacing to confront his mother."And I understand, but considering who she is, the union would help you politically. Your union might not even be as bad as you fear," his mother replied calmly, her tone trying to reassure him despite the tense atmosphere in the room. Duncan clenched his fists, his frustration evident in the furrow of his brows. “Politics shouldn’t dictate matters of the heart,” he retorted, his voi

“I don’t know, but I must do something,” Hailey exclaimed, her frustration evident in the furrow of her brows.“Hailey, whatever plan you have, you need to be careful. You know the kind of man your father is,” Jane cautioned, her tone filled with concern.“How about I run away?” Hailey suggested a glimmer of desperation in her eyes.“Hailey! Is that the best you can come up with?” Jane exclaimed, her disbelief evident in her tone.“Come on, what else would you rather have me do?” Hailey countered, her voice tinged with frustration.It is dangerous,” Jane argued, her voice reflecting the worry she felt. “If you’re caught, the penalty could be severe. And even if you do manage to escape, you’re gonna have to live as a fugitive for who knows how long.”Hailey nibbled on her lip and looked worried, her forehead creased with worry. “You’re right,” she said with a sigh accepting his idea. “But at least it is still better than doing nothing at all”Jane put her hand on Hailey’s shoulder tryi

"Hailey, wake up! It's the day," Jane exclaimed, shaking Hailey gently to rouse her from sleep."Uhmm," Hailey mumbled groggily, blinking her eyes open."Wake up, sleepyhead! We're getting our wolves today. “I can’t wait”, Jane added more energy to her voice, and she became full of anticipation.This finally made sense to Hailey, and she straightened up immediately from her position on the bed, getting a rush of adrenaline. “Is today…?” she asked, unable to complete the question as the reality of the day's occasion set in."Yes, it's finally happening," Jane confirmed, her excitement mirrored in her bright smile.As the day wore on and anticipation built, Hailey and Jane found themselves eagerly counting down the hours until the shape-shifting ceremony would commence. It was like their real birthday, they were so eagerly waiting for it and the air was full of energy.As the day stationed itself to make way for the night, all were called to gather at the open field for the ceremony.

The morning sunlight is filtering through the crack of Hailey’s window. It looked like getting up from her bed was a difficult task but she had to force herself up. She could not liberate herself from thinking about what occurred the previous night.Today was the ball and she felt an increasing feeling of unrest within her. A soft knock on the door brought her back to her reality.“Hailey, are you awake?” Jane’s familiar voice called out.“Yes, come in,” Hailey replied, her voice still groggy. Jane entered with a bright smile on her face. “Good morning! Ready to get all dolled up for the ball?” Hailey tried to mimic Jane’s energetic tone, “Yes Jane, I am as ready as I can be.”A team of servants quickly entered the room wheeling trolleys filled with hair styling tools, make-up palettes, and accessories.One of the servants, a kind woman named Elise, carefully brushed out Hailey’s hair. “You have such beautiful hair, Miss Hailey. We’ll make sure you look stunning tonight.” Hailey o

From across the room, Hailey saw Jane running out of the hall, her face a mix of shock and confusion. Concerned, Hailey quickly excused herself from the dance floor and went after her, calling out her name. "Jane! Jane, wait!"She ran after her, panting when she finally caught up with her. ”Jane, what is wrong? ” She asked with a look of worry painted on her face.Jane looked at her, blinking slightly, as if she was in a daze. She murmured, "I think I just met my mate," her voice shaking slightly.Hailey’s facial expression transitioned from being shocked to being happy."That’s amazing, Jane! I’m so happy for you!" But noticing Jane's lack of excitement, she frowned. "You don’t seem excited. What’s wrong?”Jane frowned and threw her head back, nervously ruffling through her hair. "I don’t know, Hailey. Maybe it’s because it happened so unexpectedly.” Hailey nodded slowly, trying to understand. "Who is he? Do you know him?” Jane let out a breath and slipped down the wall. “I do not
