Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 106
NIRVANA It was hard enough for me to stay sane with what was going on in their world. I guessed it was part of my world now. Keeping secrets from my best friend was hard enough and could destroy our friendship, and she wasn’t like Grandpa, who would understand why I kept something from him. I loved Kailin like my own sister. I couldn’t afford to hurt and lose her. When we teleported into the office, she gasped and braced on her knees. Then she looked around. I saw the shock in her eyes, and then she turned to Knight. “Ask her.” He shrugged. Kailin then stared at me. “I’m so sorry. I should have told you. I thought protecting you from the truth would protect you from whatever was happening out there.” “Protecting me? Do you know how absurd that sounds? I’m a werewolf. I’m stronger than you. I can run fast, and I healed fast—” “I do, too.” She swallowed hard and kept staring at me. “I’m still a human, though.” “Wait a sec. It doesn’t explain what you just did. Let me guess,
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 107
NIRVANA “I will ask Zarah to portal us, Grandpa.” “Why don’t you—” Kailin shut her mouth when Knight looked at her. He probably told her to stop. “Let’s go then.” Grandpa gave it a go. “I’m not coming with you. You have to take it with the glass casing.” “Why?” “I have a feeling it’s protected, K. Just like something I found in Portland.” “Why are you not coming with us, Nirvana?” “I need to train with McKaye. We have to divide the tasks if we wanna get it done.” “Now you sound like a true luna, Vana.” Luka nodded with pride. “Knight, I suppose you will protect my grandfather with your life?” Knight came to me and kissed my forehead. “You don’t have to ask. Your family is my family.” “Aw,” Kailin reacted, giggling. “All right then. Case, Luka, and I will take the sword while Kaleb handles the pack business. Tell everyone to stay vigilant and away from the crowd, but don’t panic. Report any violent and unnatural incidents to me. That’s also your priority.” “Got it, alpha.
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 108
KNIGHT “I’ll be right back,” I told Case and Luka before I left the office. “I’ll just tell my mate we’re leaving.” As soon as I entered the gym, I instantly felt something was wrong. McKaye was staring at Nirvana in utter shock, who was throwing punches at the punching bag at full speed like I’d never seen before. The bag was almost torn in half, like an animal gutted in the slaughterhouse, and the grain and sand dripped down the floor. “Shit.” “What the hell is going on?” McKaye finally found his words. “Nirvana?” I called her name as I carefully stepped closer to her. When she did not respond, I held her shoulder. One moment, I was behind her; the next second, McKaye and I were thrown against the wall like lifeless, useless pieces of meat. The blast was strong enough to shake the entire gym, rattling the equipment and TV screen hanging on the wall. Groaning, McKaye and I got on my ass from the fall. He was still in shock, rubbing the back of his head. “Nirvana?” I called h
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 110
KNIGHT “I never expected this would happen so fast.” “Now, go get whatever it is in New York. Just be careful and watch your back.” “Thank you.” Zarah created a portal. “I told Califf that you may need an extra backup. See you soon.” I stepped into the portal. Case and Luka followed me. The portal brought us to Califf’s office. I knew the interior. I always saw it in the background every time we Facetimed. “Welcome.” Califf was waiting for us on his desk. “This is surreal,” Case reacted as he looked around. “Good to see you again, Alpha.” “Me, too, Case.” “Unbelievable. So we’re in New York?” Case reacted. “Yes. In my compound at the pack house. Unfortunately, I can’t come with you, but my two best enforcers, Lyon and Tor, will.” “I appreciate it, Cal.” “This is for all of us. Anyway, the SUV is waiting outside. I’ll walk you out.” The pack house was as big as mine. Califf had a property in the middle of the forest where his pack could run freely as wolves. Although his e
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 111
NIRVANA “I can’t. I can’t do it anymore.” I could barely catch my breath. I had never been exhausted like this in my entire life, but today I felt it. My lungs were about to collapse. My heart pumped so hard I felt like it would explode in my chest. I bent, my hands on my knees, breathing hard. “Mac, please? Can we just take a break for five minutes?” “No. You’re still not fast enough.” He looked down at his stopwatch. I didn’t even see a hint of sympathy in his eyes. “Run. You still have five laps to finish, then we’re done for today.” Shit. He forced me not to use my supernatural speed, so I ran like human Nirvana. My knees weakened, my muscles clenched everywhere, but I couldn’t give up now. I managed to control my emotions and wasn’t mad at McKaye. In fact, I respected him. He kept his word and followed orders from his alpha not to give me special treatment because I was their Luna. Despite my exhaustion, I ran again into the woods, following the trails towards the vineyard
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 112
NIRVANA “Who?” I asked. “He said he knows you both. A werewolf from Portland.” Knight and I shared a look. “What is going on, guys?” We shifted our gaze to Kailin. “It’s Dylan.” “Who’s Dylan?” “Long story short, he’s my distant cousin. Let’s go and see why he’s here.” We rushed the ride to the tasting room. Dust covered the Hammer behind us. Now that another player could be in the game, the guys took our safety seriously. I instantly saw Dylan pacing before the counter. He seemed worried or scared. He hugged the backpack into his chest as if protecting it with his dear life. The moment he saw us, he came to us, but the guys went forward to stop him. “Whoa, guys.” He raised both hands. “I mean no harm.” “It’s okay, guys. I know him.” “We can’t guarantee his words, Luna,” Tucker said. “I swear. I’m not here to cause trouble. In fact, I came here if you could give me a place to lie low.” “What’s wrong?” Knight said, gesturing for the guys to calm down. “Alpha, how do we k
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 113
NIRVANA “You can’t take that.” At the office, Dylan looked terrified when Luka snatched the backpack away. I felt like he was trying hard to control his wolf from coming out. “And why is that?” Knight locked the door. “What’s going on, Nirvana? I thought we were cousins and we were supposed to protect each other. Why are you treating me like some kind of bad guy?” He shifted his terrified gaze at everyone in the room. “Good question, Dylan. We’re cousins, but I didn’t even know about you three days ago. Tell me what you’re keeping from us, or I swear I will put you in the cell.” I looked at Knight. “We have a prison cell here, have we?” “Yes, Luna. A dungeon. I should give you a tour. Let me know when you’re free.” “Thanks, Luka. I’d like that.” I glared down at Dylan, sitting on the chair surrounded by these feral werewolves. “I left Portland yesterday. I told Kol, Niko, and Phin I’m leaving to find a family.” “And who might that be?” Knight asked, showing no hint of emotion
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 114
KNIGHT “Do you believe him?” I asked Nirvana through the link. “Yes. Do you?” “Yeah. I think he’s telling the truth. Are we sure he’s on our side?” “One way to find out.” I wished I could read his mind. “Why didn’t you tell your alpha?” “Oh, I did. Not about the sword. I asked him that we should do something before one of us gets infected with that black virus.” “Black virus?” “Well, what do you call it? No one can treat that thing except maybe the person who did it. If he’s even a person. It’s like the virus is linked to him. The hospitals denied having such patients. The local government tried hard to hide the situation from escalating to avoid mass panic, and how do they explain it exactly? When it’s something beyond their comprehension. And this is not good for us. This virus will expose our world to humans.” “What did your alpha say?” “He said it’s beyond his capability. He only warned us to be careful.” I took a deep breath before I picked up my phone and dialed the We
