His Rogue Mate The secret is out!
Karina.His gaze was slightly stricken.Hope gleamed in me. Perhaps this was all I needed to do. Maybe now he'd stop trying to reach me.But he didn't say anything for another set of seconds, and slowly my hope turned into worry.I contemplated not moving forward.“Co- you… are you okay?” I asked. His name seemed too powerful to say.He nodded stiltedly before replying, “Yeah. I am.”I breathed out, all the tension and worry deflated like a bubble.“So… we're okay then,” I said tentatively, hoping that he'll agree.But he didn't say a word, or give any gesture. Instead, he turned away for a moment.“Please just answer this question for me.” He said.I nodded. No doubt it would be a question about whether I cared for him. Even if I did care enough to not reject him, it didn't change things.Liking someone wasn't enough, mate or not. I had seen it amongst the humans already, whether it was the gossip of coworkers or strangers or events that happened in my presence.Like wasn't enough. L
His Rogue Mate Moving the mating ceremony up.
Karina.It was enough grace that the plate I was holding hadn't slipped down my hands. Perhaps it was my instincts, or the absolute shock that caught me at that moment.Though I couldn't move, the urge to smack the dirty plate on my forehead was tempting.First, Felix and now Agathe. It was two too many people who no doubt had hints about what was going on.How would she even know? I wondered, my heart racing beneath my chest.The last thing I wanted to do was confront Agathe.“Kiara? Is it about Lola?”I blinked, first to process her words, and the second in pure disbelief.Isabella's friend… Lola… my boss.She was my boss and Isabella's friend.It was never about Connor.“Sorry dear, I could have sworn I heard something about that before. Was I saying nonsense?” Agathe asked, her voice filled with a light confusion.Relief washed over me like a tidal wave, pushing air into my lungs to wash away the worry.“Nothing of the sort, Agathe," I breathed out as casually as possible, not let
His Rogue Mate Something wrong.
Karina.A wolf stood at the distance, green eyes penetrating mine. I wouldn't let him near me. I couldn't.I opened my eyes, greeting the sunlight with squinted eyes. Instinctively looking at my phone, I spotted the time.Less than a week. A few more days and less than 24 hours.I was more than thankful when I received yet another text from Lola and Willa within the same hour the next morning.Lola's text said: ‘Don't come to work. See you at Bella's wedding. Greet Levi for me 'On the other hand, Willa's text said:‘Lola just told me the news. So lucky of you. I just heard about the wedding from her and Penny. Thanks for keeping it a secret.'I rolled my eyes at the visible sarcasm in the last sentence. Penny, in fact, was her best friend from the Red Eclipse pack. Although I'd never seen her in the flesh, I learned it was one of the reasons why she knew of werewolves and packs.Looking at the text however, filled me with relief. It meant that there would be no need to work in the ci
His Rogue Mate Running away from the truth.
Kiara.“I don't have anything else to do today,” I spoke to Levi, curled within his sheets and went to the world.Isabella and Leo's Mating ceremony was merely a day away.There was still plenty of time. The rest of the next day when the sun is up will still be considered time for the preparations. The ceremony ensued at night after all.However, with every ticking second that passed, I felt the minutes waste away, dragging us closer to the moment.It was strange, after the strains of exhaustion I'd borne, I found myself too restless to sleep on my free day.Standing up, I took one last look at Levi before aiming for the door.He was asleep and would be safe even without me present.Taking in the cool night air, I blinked at the plethora of decorations and hangers made to the entire pack.People walked around without a care, children running and waving through the decorations as they went. Stepping down, I spotted a few of the other pack members walking around and tensed slightly. Wa
His Rogue Mate The right decision?
Karina.The sound of the wind mixed in with the rushing of my blood, overwhelming my senses to the brink.People. Noises. I stumbled across everything, uncaring of the decorations. It was too much.I remembered their faces, right before I turned unconscious. The malicious grins they had as they advanced into me.“Rogues like you are only good for one thing."My body crashed onto the bark. I let my hands reach out to hold it tightly as I forced breaths out of me.This wasn't the first time it happened, and it was far from being the last. But first, I had to breathe.Scraping my wrist against the rough tree bark, I let the rhythm sway me while every exhale I let out. Slowly, the rushing feeling wanted down. The continuous drum in my chest slowed and the voices in my head waned with reassurances from Germaine filling me.I wasn't there. I was safe, in a pack full of people like me. A pack that cared.I would never be there again.“Karina!”My breath hitched at the voice, mixing with the
His Rogue Mate Heartbroken.
Connor.The lump in my throat didn't go away. With every step I took, I felt the stretch of the bond of the person I left behind.Along with the broken pieces of my heart.Stepping into Isabella's home, I could only pray that nobody was in sight. Time had passed since I left with the excuse of seeing through the remaining preparations.But my hopes were gone. Isabella was nowhere to be found, but my uncle and aunt were.So were my parents.They looked up in a scarily synchronized fashion, there eyes and smiles bright. I had no doubt that they were reminiscing in nostalgia, the same way I left them.My mother's face fell first. She walked toward me with a worry ridden expression.“What's wrong, darling? Why do you look so down?” I should have been more careful, and acted slightly cheerful.Neither of them knew the truth of my mating. It had taken pleading from Isabella's parents to keep it a secret. A secret which I was supposed to reveal after I had gotten Karina's favor. I remembered
His Rogue Mate He knew!
Karina.The next morning I woke up tired, angry, and empty.The day felt listless, a hollow feeling in my belly that I was sure wasn't because of food.“I'll leave this place.” His words echoed in my head.“Is that what would make you happy?”‘Is it?’I growled at the reminder of those words, shutting my eyes so tightly I could see stars beneath them.It was what I needed. Safety and peace. I had every right to it. I shouldn't feel angry for making the best decision for my child and myself.And yet…Shaking my head fiercely, I sat off the bed.It was time to prepare for the work for today. I was distracting myself, I was more than aware of that, but it didn't matter.Picking up a sleeping Leo, I rocked him lightly.“You can't sleep all day today, you know. There's a big celebration coming up.” I pouted, kissing his belly and forehead before rocking him.He still didn't budge, though his breathing and the feeling through the bond reminded me that he was safe. Dropping him back in the c
His Rogue Mate Making a new decision.
Karina.For a moment, time froze. Left under his gaze and the stars above us, I could imagine that this was a different scenario. A different time, a different place.But just like all things, the moment passed. The rushing in my head stopped, bringing back all the noises around me.I looked into his gaze, focused on Levi.‘No.’Even now, Levi bore tufts of hair that was evidently his. There was no way to cover it. Whether by his appearance or simply the calculations, there was no way I could deny it.‘He knows.’‘After all this time.’‘We were almost there.’‘He knows.’Words rushed into my head until they grew into a cacophony within my mind, but one was louder than the rest.‘Run.’I pushed him away, cradling my son carefully to mitigate whatever shock. “Karina, wait!”I didn't stop, couldn't. Stopping would mean the end. It would be me having to face Con
