Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 59
NIRVANA Unbelievable. Since I turned eighteen, I have been independent. The last thing I wanted was to be controlled or dictated by some ancient practices. And we shouldn’t be discussing my choices anymore. I hated it that we had to argue about it. I couldn’t believe we had to discuss my body, my choices, and my virginity when, from the very beginning, I didn’t want to be a part of this dangerous world. I didn’t want anything to do with the gift or to be a werewolf anymore. I wanted to live a normal life, to be with my family and the people I cared about, and to be with someone who accepted me and loved me for who I was. But not like this, where my choices were taken away from me. “I need some air.” I could be disrespectful if I wanted to. Don’t get me wrong, I had a huge respect for Knight and Zarah, but I felt like I could explode in anger any moment I heard an argument about my life decision. I walked out of the room, trying to process what Zarah had learned. I was still s
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 60
NIRVANA “You’re not okay, Axell.” I finally saw the blank look in his eyes, as if he wasn’t there— as if he had lost himself in deep sorrow. “You should get yourself checked.” “I said I’m fine!” he yelled, startling me. “Okay.” I raised my hand. “I have to go. Go home, but I’m not coming with you.” “You will gonna regret this, Vana. You should have not left.” “Please, leave—” A high-pitched scream erupted from my throat, echoing around me. My hand flew to my mouth as I watched Axell fly, thrown away like a dead animal. With my heart in my throat and my feet rooted to the ground, I stared at someone who just appeared a few feet away from me. I wanted to run as fast as I could, but my knees wobbled, my chin trembled, and my body shivered. “He’s useless now. Nirvana, the daughter of Sophie, the descendant of Katzius. Do you know me?” His voice was echoey, as if we were in a theater. The man stopped just a yard away from where I stood. He was a black man, tall, in his fifties, bu
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 61
KNIGHT It had been four fucking hours. Nirvana had received a prophylactic drug, and she should have improved, at least woke up, but she remained the same. “Maybe you should go home and get some rest.” Kailin and McKaye arrived earlier. “I’ll stay with her, I promise.” “No.” I shook my head stubbornly as I watched Nirvana lying unconscious in bed. She had oxygen through her nose, and although her breathing had improved, her heart rate remained low. “I won’t leave her again. I won’t let her out of my sight ever again.” “You need to nap, cuz. You have to trust me if I say I’ll always be with her.” “Stop it, Kailin. I’m not going anywhere. I’m staying by her side.” “I know you’re blaming yourself for what happened, but your property is safe.” “None of this should happen if I’m more very careful. Suppose she’s bitten by a wolf. At least we know how to treat her. I just let her walk out of the door. Who else should be blamed if not me?” My chest was in constant pain, and it was hard
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 62
NIRVANA I woke up to the beeping sound. I felt disoriented and so freaking exhausted, like I just climbed a mountain. Then I realized the room seemed familiar with a white ceiling, while the walls and scent alone were nauseating. When I was in high school, I got food poisoning, and I ended up in the hospital for two days. It all felt the same over again. The only difference was that my tummy didn’t hurt, but my shoulder did. It is excruciatingly painful. Then my gaze landed on the man I’d been longing to hug. He looked sad and exhausted, as did my best friend, hugging him behind his back. “Why are you hugging him?” Their reaction was comical. They froze, eyes wide as they stared at me with mouths hanging open. “Sweetheart,” Knight said breathlessly as he let Kailin’s arms go, rose from the chair, and hugged me tightly. He showered my face with kisses. “You scared the fuck out of me.” “Ouch, ouch.” I hissed in pain. “What’s wrong?” “My shoulder. It hurts.” I wanted to scream.
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 63
KNIGHT “What warlock are you talking about?” “Cyrius?” “Who the fuck is Cyrius? Why isn’t she healing?” I stopped breathing. I stopped living the moment I saw the poison spread fast down her back, up to the back of her neck. “Cyrius is the warlock that killed her parents.” “I thought he’s dead.” I glared at Zarah. “He is not dead after all. When you touched the mark on her neck, it weakened the spell that kept him locked up for years. Now, his mission is to find the last line of Katzius.” “Who?” I blinked off my tears when I felt like there was nothing they could do. “This can’t be. There’s something we can do.” “She’s drifting, Knight.” Even Zarah sounded devastated, and the room seemed filled with so much grief. “No! I don’t believe that!” I screamed at them. My voice boomed and rattled the room, startling Shadow, while Zarah didn’t even flinch. “I’m so sorry, Knight. I thought I could do something to help her.” “Try again, Shadow. Call your father. Maybe he can help. Ple
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 64
KNIGHT My head snapped at Zarah. “You don’t have any idea of what I feel right now. Of all people who have lived longer, you should know what losing a mate does to someone.” “We don’t have much time,” said the stranger. “How do I know it’s you? We buried you a long time ago. You could be Cyrius, for all I know.” “Ask your witch.” He turned his head to Zarah and offered his hand. “Go ahead.” Glaring, Zarah took his hand. She gasped and stilled for a moment before she let his hand go. “You’re Sophie’s great-grandfather?” “Yes, it seems he is,” Case said. And here I thought he was dead a long time ago.” “I didn’t die. It was another body glamoured as me.” “Then where the hell have you been all these years? Why should I trust you to bring my grandchild back?” “The moment Ophelia was born, I knew someone would always get interested in our family gift and suffer the family curse. Can we talk later? I want to save my great-great-granddaughter, and I have the man who helped find her.
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 65
NIRVANA “Wait. Are you my great-great-grandfather? My mom’s great-grandfather. Whoa. That’s cool. How old are you exactly?” “I’m Ambrose, little one.” My gaze landed on my dead ex-boyfriend. “Is that?” Warlock Ambrose, or my great-great-grandfather, just waved his hand, and my ex, that son of a bitch, just vanished. “Where did he go?” “It’s not important right now, Nirvana. How are you feeling?” asked Knight. I sat on the bed and held his hand. “Why are you looking at me like I just died and brought back to life, and now you look at me as if I vanish if you blink?” “That’s exactly how I feel. I can’t lose you again, Nirvana. Can you be a little serious right now?” “I’m so sorry.” I breathed deeply because what I was about to say might shock them or piss them off. “I’m feeling okay like before. I died, did I?” I looked at their reactions, and they just stared at me like I was some kind of magical creature. “Medically, yes, but magically, you did not die. Your breathing and yo
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 66
NIRVANA When Ambrose turned to me, I froze for a moment. “What?” “Your grandfather raised you well, but he’s too lenient. What do these kids say nowadays? Don’t be a pain in his arse.” I grinned like crazy. “So, what now, if I may ask?” Kailin said. “You all will face a lot of challenges, but use your brain and your heart instead of the animal inside you. You may have to make impossible choices, placing everyone else over yourself. That’s how you win the war. And it’s coming sooner than I expected.” “You’re scaring me. What are we up against?” “I won’t tell you that. You figure out yourself, and you will do good things than you can ever imagine if you only follow the right path.” His words gave me goosebumps. Whatever it was, it made me nervous. “So your gift, you can also see the future like my mother?” “No. You won’t get that either.” “What? So, will I stay like this, a human, for the rest of my life? Because I’m cool with that. It’s hard to shift naked, you know.” Knight
