Cursed to be my Mate Shanties Town (1)
~ Rhys ~Rhys remained quiet for the entire carriage ride, even as the hills and forests slowly drifted away to the open expanse of the ocean. He had been deep in thought about his rule and the issues regarding the damned elders and his wolf. Without a mate, he couldn’t rule efficiently. He couldn’t help his people. All of his people.Rhys gazed at the sun, which painted the sky in hues of orange and gold, its rays stretching across the calm sea. The breeze felt much milder than the winds of the Crimson Hills, carrying the scent of salt through the air while the clamour of seagulls and the bustling Shanties town harbour grew more pronounced as they approached.“One day, Amira.”Rhys’ head turned to look at Zayyan. He, too, was looking outside the window, deep in thought. “We will help them. It all takes time,” Zayyan added. “They are mostly safe there; that’s what counts for now.”Rhys nodded, shocked that Zayyan was the one to read his mood so well. He looked at his reflection of Am

~ Rhys ~Glowering at the man, Rhys yanked his hand away from this flattering peacock. He didn’t like how the man looked at him and wondered how much of his presumption was true. Amira was stunning, but from the warning growl in his mind, Nisha was unhappy with his thoughts. Rhys didn’t know if she was growling because of his ‘harsh’ thoughts about Amira or because he was right and the wolf felt defensive. The man chuckled and slumped down in the wooden chair beside Rhys as other men, men he didn’t recognise, started to gather around them. They sat on tables next to theirs but did not venture closer. Rhys watched them warily and subtly glanced at Zayyan and Oclan. The others in their party were returning, but they stopped in their tracks and moved to other tables.So, the other rogues knew who these men were and whatever relationship they had with Amira. “I didn’t expect you to be in port,” Rhys said after the man continued to watch him. He’d subtly glanced at his men’s attire and r
Cursed to be my Mate Deal with the Pirates
~ Rhys ~Captain Hart’s eyebrows rose as his gaze flicked back to Rhys. His first mate, however, seemed to scan Rhys from head to toe and not from any lust but in suspicion. Rhys sighed, glaring at Amira’s cousin, who widened his eyes at him and gave him a look as though it was his fault.Maybe it was his fault; kneeing this man in the balls might have been a bit excessive. But Rhys couldn't deny the satisfaction he felt from it."You can't be telling the truth," Captain Hart remarked sceptically, though his gradually changing expression hinted at some degree of acceptance.Rhys couldn't help but acknowledge that this captain possessed a keener sense of observation than he had initially presumed. Perhaps there were valid reasons why Amira and Zayyan chose to negotiate with him. Beyond his proficiency in trade, it appeared that the captain possessed a considerable level of intelligence, Rhys begrudgingly admitted.“It is true,” Rhys admitted after Zayyan glared at him to speak up. With
Cursed to be my Mate Dreaming of Goddesses (1)
~ Rhys ~That night, Rhys passed out in the uncomfortable bed for the first time without struggling or tossing and turning restlessly from the lack of luxury and comfort Amira’s lodgings provided. After a quick, horribly cold wash and a hot, tasteless meal in his stomach, Rhys returned to the room and collapsed on the bed, seeking comfort in his dreams. When could he return to his body and the palace?It had been a great experience so far, but acting like the she-wolf was tiresome, and remaining alert and the constant vigilance to avoid mistakes had taken its toll. Now, Rhys succumbed to a state of oblivion, his thoughts dissipating as vibrant colours emerged, his thoughts fading as he recognised he was in a dream.Rhys let out a weary sigh. All he desired was sleep, and if he were to dream, he wished to do so without awareness. He simply longed for his mind to find respite, to escape from dwelling on the predicament he was currently facing.Scanning his surroundings, Rhys realised he
Cursed to be my Mate Dreaming of Goddesses (2)
Amira’s mouth gaped at the Goddess’ words and looked to Rhys, feeling a little lost. “Are you saying… You switched our bodies because you’re having a tantrum about us rejecting each other-”“It is not a tantrum!” Artemis shouted, and the sky erupted into a loud thunder, echoing as her eyes glowed in fury. “You are mates, and you will learn why.”“Are you forgetting the part where we tried to kill each other?” Amira snapped, seeming to not care about her life or that she was brazenly speaking to the Moon Goddess.Rhys arched an eyebrow at her, admiring her audaciousness. Perhaps he didn’t mind this bit about the she-wolf, but Amira was correct. “Mates are allowed to reject each other.. Otherwise, why would there be a clause allowing us to do so?” Rhys asked, his tone neutral as he spoke to the Moon Goddess like one of his subjects he had to be respectful to. Which were not many.“It is there for other means. But you two…” Artemis threw her hands up and sighed in exasperation. “You are
Cursed to be my Mate Rumours (1)
~ Amira ~As soon as she was thrust from the dream, sleep escaped Amira as she fluttered her eyes open. There it was, the luxury bedroom she was getting accustomed to. The elegant ceiling, free from any imperfections, displayed a pristine, unblemished coat of white paint. This was her current reality.It was all so surreal, especially after that dream. Amira’s hand went to her lips and then scoffed at the shimmering sensation on her lips. Lips that were not her own. She dropped her hand as a cloud of unease and anger settled over her.Alpha King Rhys was currently in her body and was in the Wilds, most likely learning everything to do with the rebels' organisation. Sooner or later, Rhys was going to figure out where he was and where their traps were. Eventually, they were going to return to their bodies. Artemis didn’t tell them they would, but it was evident they would return to their former selves at some point. However, the Goddess didn’t tell them much besides what each of them h
Cursed to be my Mate Rumours (2)
~ Amira ~“It is an important matter to discuss-”“No, it is not. And nothing more than idle gossip,” Amira snapped, interrupting them before they would continue to talk among themselves and silence her. “I’m here to discuss about plans to build shelters for the poor. We do not have enough set up to help those in need.” The men looked at her like she’d lost her mind. It really pissed her off how they didn’t care and seemed to think their Alpha King, who was in charge of everyone, would not care. He didn’t… Amira cleared her throat and added, “The streets are looking increasingly rotten with them begging and dying on them. It’s time to clean them up.”She was waiting for someone to suggest they kill the poor to clean it up, but nobody did. They all seemed overly nervous the more she spoke. “We should set up shelters in each of the towns and cities. Provide the Alphas of each territory with the resources they need to make this done.”“And how will these shelters be paid for?” Another m
Cursed to be my Mate Willowbrook Mission (1)
~ Rhys ~Marching down the stairs, Rhys grinned as his thoughts remained on the dream he had the night before. Amira’s flustered look after he kissed her kept repeating in his mind. Sure, she’d bitten him after like the feisty little she-wolf she was, but it had only aroused him further.That was all he felt for Amira, though. She’d also angered him with what she had done whilst in his body. Why did she think it was okay to create a rumour about him?! Even if the she-wolf wanted him dead, rumours were only going to target her more. What was she even doing whilst acting as king?Now that he knew his body was safe, or as safe as can be, and Amira was the one to reside in it, his purpose was to learn more about the rebels before he could return to his body. He didn’t know much about Amira since she became a rogue, but if her purpose was to kill him and start a revolution with the rogues, then he needed to figure out what he could do to prevent this. The rogues hadn’t been an issue until
