… and that was how I ‘won’ Sebastian’s life.“You want to decide his punishment?” A faint spark of amusement shone in Cahir’s eyes. “Alright, let’s hear it.”“Since – Since he is my guard,” I stuttered, feeling hot all of a sudden. “He is my guard so I’m responsible for him.”“Don’t you think it’s the reverse, Sihana? As your guard, he is responsible for your safety.”“Yeah, but you gave him to me already. I’ll decide his punishment.” I stared Cahir head on and then he sighed.“Very well.” Even the walls in the room were surprised at how easily he agreed. This same man had been raging to – have Sebastian’s fingers chopped off one at a time, or whatever evil he had planned and now, he was letting him go. “What punishment will he be getting?”“Let him go. His punishment will be settled between us.” Cahir looked at me, and I forced myself to look back at me. His eyes seemed to remind me that he had more of a say on what happened to Sebastian than I did but after a minute of staring each

“Let’s forget about Silver Moon,” I urged Cahir but he shut me down at once.“No.” The cold finality in his tone made me wince. At this rate, the plan of keeping him away from bloodshed would fail before it began.“Do you – Will you consider it, at least?” I asked, biting my lips while my stomach fluttered.“No.” His words were final and his tone warned against me pursuing the matter further. I didn’t know when to stop but the red light was so clear that I didn’t dare push the matter.“If you - The bloodlust - Isn’t it aggravated when you do things like this?” I asked, clearing my throat at the end and looking at a spot behind him.“The bloodlust,” he mumbled, then he pulled my note towards him and reread what I’d written. “What are you doing, belle?” His eyes cut to me and I looked away.“Just – Just that –“ What I planned suddenly felt ridiculous when he asked like that - with a bland tone and blank eyes. I felt silly – as if he was silently berating me for being presumptuous. “You

I spluttered but had nothing to say in my defence. No, I wasn't the possessive type but all wolves had a degree of possessiveness thanks to their animal sides. Asena already laid claim to her mate and she was a part of me."Are you hungry?" Cahir asked but I shook my head. Focused on finding a way to deal with his bloodlust, food was the last thing on my mind."I'm a bit tired." I raised my hands above my head and stretched, stifling a yawn. "It's hard to sleep when you're not there." The words slipped from my mouth as I stretched and my hands paused midair when I realized what I'd admitted."Is that so?" Cahir murmured, his eyes fixated on mine. I looked away when the intensity of his gaze seared me. Those were dangerous words to utter to a man like Cahir Armani and I realized that too late."But – But it's not like I do much sleeping when you're there," I said with an awkward laugh, flinching away when he gripped me tighter."Is that complaint I hear?" His hands found mine as I move

“So you’re telling me rogues are cursed?” I wanted to hit my head against a wall. I should have known a person like Felicity would lie about even her academic prowess. “The goddess cursed rogues? Where did you learn this?”“It’s in ‘Rogues 101.’ I’m serious.” As she mentioned the ridiculous book title, I pulled out my phone to search for it on the internet. Surprisingly, it existed. “The goddess cursed all destroyers with a madness that is incurable.”Although I didn’t believe her words, she had cited a source. All I needed to do was read the book and clarify she wasn’t talking nonsense. If the curse was incurable, then I may have a problem.“Is that all?” I asked, taking a sip of my tea.We’d come to a bustling cafe behind the pack house Felicity, I learnt, talked a lot. It annoyed me that she knew Alpha Blood better than I did so I made a mental note to come out more often to explore the pack lands.“If you can tell me what you’re researching rogues for, I might be able to help bett

“Why are you still awake?” His beard tickled my skin as he buried his face in my neck.“How can you tell?” I asked, adjusting myself and wrapping my arms around him.“Your heartbeat.” He kissed my skin and I shivered. “Want me to tire you out?” I snorted at his suggestion. I was tired, I just could not sleep because the thoughts flying around in my head were too much. My brain refused to shut down no matter how I tried.“What’s the problem?” He asked, pushing up on one elbow as he stared down at me. I looked up at him, drinking in his features. Even in the dark room only illuminated by the moon, his finely chiselled features were breathtaking.“Stop giving me that look except you want me tearing off your clothes.” I looked away and heard him sigh. He moved beside me, settling himself back into the bed then light flooded the room as he turned on the bedside lamp, then he pulled me against his chest, stroking my hair.“What’s wrong, bella?” He murmured, his voice soft and intimate.“Wha

The days that followed after had me researching rogues extensively while trying my best to keep my heart from Cahir. It was difficult but his words replayed in my head ever so often, reminding me that he was incapable of love. Using his words as a mantra didn’t work as well as I expected it to. I didn’t want to but it was inevitable – I was falling in love, slowly but surely. “Uggh.” I felt my stomach turn as I buried my face into my pillow. My whole body ached like I had been run over by a truck, and I felt uncomfortable for some reason. “Sihana!” I jerked upright, gathering my sheets to cover my body as Aristo barged into my room. “What the hell?” I asked, wide-eyed, petrified and annoyed. “Why are you here and can’t you knock!?” I shrieked, the full effect of his behaviour dawning on me. I was naked underneath these sheets and this man who was not my mate just barged into my – Cahir’s room! “Oh, sorry, sorry!” He put his hands across his face and backed out of the room. “Ha!”
Healing the Ruthless Alpha SEVENTY-FOUR
"Luna, are you okay?" A small hand reached for me, trying to help me up."I'm okay," I said to the little boy who I'd healed in the past. Sam, was it?"Hey, Sir, you are in big trouble!" The boy put his hands on his hips as he scolded the man who ran into me. "That's the Luna you just pushed to the ground.""Shut up, child," The man said as I stood and patted the furious child."It's alright, Sam. It was a mistake," I said but he shook his head."It wasn't a mistake! I saw him! He ran into you on purpose!" He stomped his feet. "Hey, sir, it's rude to act that way. Didn't your mother teach you any manners?" He scolded.I was caught in an awkward position. My derrière hurt from falling flat on it, my body felt heavy and I was getting lightheaded. The man continued to glare at me as if I'd been the one to knock him to the ground and the little boy who jumped to my defense was a second away from rushing at the man and – I don't know, biting his leg? He looked like he wanted to retaliate o

“Y – Yes?” I stuttered with my mouth falling open. No day went by where Cahir didn’t say something that surprised me.“Yes, I don’t want kids. I don’t care for them.” His words rang with finality and he stared at me with an indiscernible look in his eyes.“B – But the – Your seat.” I looked at the large chair in his office. “Who will take over from you?”“Who knows?” He shrugged, taking a seat with his arms behind his head. “I hate this pack and can’t be bothered to care for their continuity. Alpha Blood is relevant to me as it acts as my tether. That aside, I couldn’t care less if it perished.”His words shouldn’t have surprised me but they did. It went without saying that someone who hated a pack wouldn’t care if they fell to ruins. Still, it was still hard to reconcile the Cahir everyone knew, the one that would go to war if a single person in Alpha Blood was hurt, with the Cahir I knew who didn’t care about Alpha Blood. I wondered if it was something like possessiveness which he c
