Chapter Eighteen
Ryan smirks at me. "The guys and I made a bet to see if I could get the untouchable El in bed. I've got a lot of money on you, but it’ll be worth the effort. Of course, now that you know about the bet, I'll have to do this the hard way."
I grab a nearby table, my head spinning. What was he saying? The room seems to have gotten dark and I couldn't manage to focus on anything. "What? Ryan…" I fell down on my knees, unable to stand upright any longer. My muscles seemed to have a mind of their own, not moving the way I wanted them to. He drugged me. That was the only explanation.
"The effects will wear off in a few hours. You won't even remember anything." I see him removing his belt from the corner of my eye and my heart races. No. There was no way I was going to let this happen! I frantically tried to crawl to the door but he was already on top of me, fli

“El?” Dad's rough voice calls out. I slam the car door shut, resisting the urge to look back as I walk towards the house. Dad meets me out on the front lawn. Zak’s car stayed put and I desperately willed him to leave. “Why the fuck is your room packed up?” He demands, coming face to face with me. “Are you planning on leaving?” “Let’s talk about this inside.” I try to grab his arm but he shoves me off. I hear Zak exit the car and I curse silently under my breath. This wasn’t good. “Who’s this? Your boyfriend?” Dad takes a step toward Zak. “Is there a problem?” Zak asks, looking between me and my father. “No. I got this, Zak. Please go.” I plead. “She’s right, son. You s

As we ate our food in silence, I snuck a glance in Zak’s direction, but caught a glimpse of a little shadow standing just out of sight. The boy, maybe five or six, hid further behind Zak when I spotted him. "Hello." I say. The boy finally steps out, creeping up to me with curiosity in his eyes. "What's your name?" He looks up at Zak who gives a small nod. "Dylan." He says as he studies me and his nose scrunches up. "You smell weird." I couldn't help but laugh at the odd comment. "Do I?" I figured my night in the woods was to blame. He looks back to Zak and they stare at each other for a moment as if exchanging a conversation I couldn’t hear. "Oh, that makes sense." Dylan says aloud as if in the middle of a discussion then turns back to me. "Is that why she's pr

I wake to the tickle of fingers brushing up and down my arms. “El…” Zak coaxes, pulling me from my peaceful slumber. I was still laying on his chest like I hadn’t moved all night. His arms wrapped around me like a protective blanket. I don’t think I’ve ever slept so well. “El...” His voice grew a little louder. I groaned and he laughed. “We have to get up.”“Five more minutes.” I grumbled against his chest and wrapped my arms tighter around him, savoring every moment being this close to him. I wished I could lay here for the rest of eternity.“Come on.” He started to sit up, causing me to roll off him.I rubbed my eyes. “What time is it?”“Almost eight. My mom wil

ZakI caught her in my arms as she fell unconscious. Panic rose in me, seeing her lifeless body crumple in front of me, but I could see her still breathing. She must have used up all of her strength and energy, healing my father.I looked up at him and saw he was still limping, but his wounds were mostly closed and I knew he would survive. As much as that relieved me, I was now concerned about El and the hundreds of eyes that just witnessed what she did.Our healer, Cedrick, quickly rushes to the alpha. You could tell my father had expended all of his energy and he finally gave up the small task of standing and plopped back in the grass. Cedrick looked him over before giving a small nod to my mother.My mother’s eyes were wide as she stared at my father, much

The room falls silent as we enter and all eyes land on us. The circular room was large and filled with chairs that sat in a circle with the exception of a path leading to the center of the room. A few people sat in the chairs, waiting to see the show. I swallowed hard when my eyes landed on the four individuals standing in front of me. They weren’t dressed in any sort of formal clothing, but they’re tall build and muscles definitely intimidated me.The man in the middle sighs irritably upon seeing Zak as we walk to the middle of the room. He had a black shirt that fitted to him and blue jeans. His golden hair was pushed back away from his face that was hidden beneath a full beard. It was dim and hard to make out many features. “You know you’re not allowed to be here, Zakariah.” He crosses his arms over his chest, much like a parent scolding a child.
Fated Chapter Twenty-Four
“This human knows too much about us!” Luke shouts and I hear a few people in the crowd agree. He digs the knife deeper and I gasp, grabbing Luke’s arm in an attempt to pull him away. “She threatens the Alpha bloodline as she has mated to our young Alpha. With these facts, I sentence her to death.”“Drop the knife!” A deep voice booms as the double doors shake the walls they slam into. Luke hesitates, holding me in place. His hand shakes like he’s fighting against himself. The man enters, looking murderous. Zak looked just like him, from his hair to his jawline and facial structure. “Lucas, let the girl go. That is a command!”Luke jumps and releases me with a growl. I practically jump in Zak's arms and he scoops me up, holding me tight. James walks to us, not taking his eyes off of Luke the entir

The next morning Zak and I decided to go and talk with my Dad to see if we could pry any answers from him. I had a bad feeling growing in the pit of my stomach about going to see him, remembering how angry he was last time I saw him. "Let's grab some breakfast first and then we will head out, okay?" I nodded, fixing my hair into a bun. Zak had gotten me some fresh clothes from his mom. Just a simple tank top and shorts but I felt so much better in clean clothes.As we walked down the hall, Zak slipped his hand in mine. I frowned despite adoring the feeling of his hand in mine. "Are you sure this is okay?" I say, holding up our hands between us. The smile he gives removes any of my perturbing thoughts and he kisses me slowly, communicating his feelings through the gesture."It's more than okay. Everyone knows now, so there's no need to hide." He kisses my

“You’re not going to leave without me, are you?” A man calls, jogging up to us. I remembered Kai from the brief time at the party. His golden hair fell in his earth colored eyes and he had about the same build as Zak, maybe a little shorter. I couldn’t help but notice how much he looked like Gabriel and wondered if they were related.“Kai, right?” I held out my hand to shake his.“You would be correct, Miss Luna.” He grabbed my hand, kissing it instead and bared his neck, just as everyone else inside did. Zak let out a low animalistic growl, but Kai just looked amused.“It’s El.” I said, feeling just as uncomfortable by the gesture as I did inside.“Whatever you say, Miss Luna.” Kai said with a
