All Chapters of My warrior mate's forbidden desire: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Kaida's POv I stood frozen, watching Atlas disappear into the shadows. His words echoed in my mind, but they brought no comfort. “I’ll fix this.” What did that even mean? How could he fix something that he was still breaking with every moment of hesitation, every ounce of silence that let Akira hold her place at his side? Selene growled within me, her voice low and angry. “He walks away again. Always walking away. We should fight. We should demand more.” But what was there to fight for if he wouldn’t fight for me? My chest ached, the weight of rejection heavier than ever. I turned back toward the pack grounds, my steps slower now, my anger cooling into something far more dangerous—painful resignation. Piper was waiting for me near the training field, leaning casually against a tree. She straightened when she saw me approach, her sharp eyes scanning my face. “Well?” she asked, her tone cautious but curious. I shook my head, letting out a frustrated sigh. “Same story, differe

Atlas pov The moon hung high in the sky as I sat in my truck, staring at the empty road in front of me. I couldn’t bring myself to go home, to let the night end with Kaida’s anger lingering between us. My wolf was restless, growling low in my chest, urging me to do something. I found myself driving instead, the familiar path to her house burned into my memory. I didn’t think, didn’t second-guess myself. I just knew I couldn’t let the night end without seeing her. When I pulled up outside her window, I climbed up the way I always used to, the memory coming back easily. Her room was dim, the soft glow of moonlight spilling across her face as she lay sleeping. For a moment, I just stood there, watching her. She looked so peaceful, so beautiful, and my chest tightened at the thought of everything I’d done to hurt her. I didn’t cover my face this time. I didn’t come here to hide. I moved closer, my heart pounding as I lowered myself onto the bed beside her. I leaned down, brushin

Atlas's pov I woke up feeling strangely energetic and unusually happy. A lightness filled my chest, and for once, the burdens of my complicated relationship with Atlas felt less heavy. As I stretched and climbed out of bed and headed downstairs, my brother’s teasing voice cut through the quiet morning. “Well, someone’s in a good mood,” he said with a smirk as I entered the kitchen. Before I could respond, my dad, who was seated at the table with a steaming mug of coffee, chimed in. “Of course she is. She had a visitor last night.” His words stopped me dead in my tracks, and I turned to him, wide-eyed. “Dad!” I shrieked, the embarrassment flooding my face as I realized what he was hinting at. My dad’s grin widened as he leaned back in his chair, clearly enjoying himself. “What? You think I don’t know Atlas has been sneaking into your room at night like a thief?” I gasped, heat rushing to my cheeks. “Dad!” My brother, now fully intrigued, looked between us, his expression

Atlas' Pov The shock was immediate, rippling through the pack like a thunderclap. Murmurs erupted from every corner, disbelief etched on the faces of my pack members. Even I was momentarily stunned, her words hitting me like a physical blow. My jaw tightened as I tried to process what she had just claimed. “Akira…” I started, my voice low but firm, trying to regain control of the situation. “What are you talking about?” She stepped closer, her eyes glinting with triumph as if she had planned this moment to perfection. “You heard me,” she said boldly. “I’m carrying your child, and now you’re announcing to the entire pack that I’m not your Luna? That I mean nothing to you?” The pack’s murmurs grew louder, the tension in the air nearly unbearable. I could see the mix of confusion, anger, and judgment in their eyes. They didn’t know what to believe, and for a brief moment, I felt the pressure of their expectations weighing heavily on me. “Enough!” I growled, silencing the room w

Atlas’s POV I stood by the pack house, watching as Kaida’s father, Alpha Thor and her brother, Axel, approached. The atmosphere was heavy with unspoken words, the tension palpable. Kaida was nowhere in sight, but I could feel her absence like a hollow ache in my chest. “Alpha Atlas,” Thor began, his tone polite but firm as he extended a hand. I shook it, nodding in acknowledgment. “Alpha Thor, Axel,” I replied, keeping my voice calm even though I could sense the purpose behind their visit. Thor looked me straight in the eye, his gaze unwavering. “I want to thank you for accommodating us all these years. For the protection, the trust, and the opportunities you’ve given my family.” “You’re welcome,” I said, but I could feel there was more coming. His expression hardened slightly, the faintest edge of steel entering his tone. “But I must ask one thing of you, Alpha. Stay far away from my daughter.” The words hit like a blow, but I kept my composure. “Kaida is strong, but s
