All Chapters of Forbidden Mates - A Fight For Love (Overpowered Series): Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Lyra’s POV I was bored at home for the next two days with nothing to do. I lost the sense of direction after the bitter experience at Mackenzie’s. It had taught me one thing. I couldn’t work under anyone. The independent streak in my nature would always cause a clash with my superiors. I hated being dictated to. “You can pursue your master’s,” suggested Hera as we sat in the living room, waiting for my uncle’s return. “I want to work simultaneously.” “Why don’t you start your fashion line? Decide what you want to specialize in,” suggested Granny while I gaped at her. Of course, the thought had been playing in my mind for almost a month, but I wasn’t confident I could do it. “What if I fail?” Granny shrugged and gazed at her mobile phone. “Learn from your failures and try harder until you succeed.” Hera looked excited and prodded me on. “Yes, mom is right. Why don’t you try at least? You can study online and do this in your free time.” I gaped at the two of them, mulling over th

Lyra’s POVI was acutely aware of his presence near me. His reaction to my arrival made me blush. Did he realize I came here only for him? No, I couldn’t admit that to him yet. It would boost his already inflated ego and I would look like a fool. No, I would make excuses but never admit my true feelings to him. Ever since I set foot in Lucania, I have been dying of curiosity. I wanted to storm into Leandros’s house and demand an explanation for everything. Yet when I reached his house, I couldn’t take a step forward and buzz his doorbell. Therefore, giving up, I went to Lena’s school, hoping to meet all of them there. After spending the entire day there, Hazel offered me to stay in her old house and I dumped my luggage there. Since she was living with Stavros, her house was vacant and I could have my privacy.Just as I had freshened up, Lena picked me up and drove over to her house for a get-together. So here I was, trying to enjoy myself with the rest of them. But my heart skipped

Lyra’s POV He released a staggering breath and got up as if dismissing me. After knowing everything about him, didn’t he realize I was here to stay? I wouldn’t go anywhere now. “I’m sorry you had to go through so much, Leandros! Why didn’t you correct me before?” I didn’t budge from his bed. I intended to stay here in his house and share his bedroom with him. After his confession, there wasn’t a doubt about what I wanted to do. I would surrender myself to my mate for life. “I was mentally disturbed after the abuse. I wasn’t sure you would want such an abused mate. You didn’t deserve a mate like me. Your uncle hated me and pushed me away from you. I went into a severe depression, but thankfully my close friends stood by me. The pups depended on me and I bounced back only for them. You wanted to know the truth, and I bared my soul in front of you. I would understand if you don’t want to be with me. I swear I won’t bear a grudge. You’re free to move on, Lyra.” With his back to me, he

Lyra’s POV Before I could get up, he crashed his mouth to mine, sitting on the sofa and pulling me onto his lap. It was the kiss I had been dying for since the fleeting kiss he gave me on Hera’s birthday. I had no idea what had stopped him from kissing me last night, but I was glad he overcame all his inhibitions. He clasped the back of my head, holding me still while his tongue worked on my lips. I wrapped my arms around his neck and melted against his body, sinking into his warm embrace. His mouth was hard, hot, and possessive as it plundered my secret recesses, plunging deep into my parted mouth. I sighed, surrendering to him. His scent was driving me insane. The kiss was enough to make me want him to the point of no return. Then all I could do was contemplate shoving him down on the sofa, pulling his pants down, and riding him until we both climaxed! I pulled him closer and kissed him back, running my hands around his broad back to feel the muscles rippling under my touch. I ha

Leandros’s POV It was a lazy Sunday, and we spent it in fishing and skiing with the triplets. Lyra packed up enough food to have a picnic by the frozen lake in our backyard. The pups enjoyed a sunny day outdoors until they were exhausted. It was something they had never done in the last four years, as Sunday meant pack meetings for me. Therefore, it was a relief that Zeph had wrapped up all meetings on Saturday. It left me free to enjoy with my family. Lyra’s laughter and exuberance were so infectious that the pups and I caught on by the end of the day. The result of our fun-filled outing was amazing. The pups bonded with Lyra so well that they started addressing her mom. My mind was now at peace seeing my pups find their mom in Lyra. She deserved it for everything she did for the pups ever since she moved in. She had no anger or resentment for having to look after the triplets. Although it was a monumental task, she did it spontaneously, with a smile on her face. Taking care of the
