Pain shot through me like lightning, and I barely managed to suppress the gasp that's escaped me. What? My eyes widened, those words echoing in my ears as I silently stood in front of the Alpha.   “T-True, mate?” On instinct, I took a step back, pushing against the Alphas chest as hard as possible to put some distance between us. Silence lingered around; my mouth parted as I tried to take in his nervous expression.     Turning around, I started swimming to the ground, my heart thudding painfully in my chest. Aiden was not the person to lie or make fun of something like this. Why would he reveal this now? Did he know all along? I had so many different questions racing in my mind, my body feeling numb and shivering.    “Rose!” He yelled behind me, th

imp a/n at the end ***The Alpha exhaled sharply, leaning up to suck a slick kiss from my raw, barely bitten lips. “I don’t want to let you go, baby.” But his hands left my lower body and reached up to touch the edges of my jaw. From up close, I could see that his eyes were darker, pupils dilated as they found mine.     No words escaped my mouth at that, throat going dry. All I knew right then was that my lips throbbed with a dull ache, wet and raw from my mate's mouth and teeth. My entire body felt as though in a state of incompetence, muscles soft, and bones unreliable under me. For all I knew, my knees would give out within a minute.    Aiden narrowed his eyes, a noticeable quirk to his lips like he enjoyed the slight change in my brea

Those words kept ringing in my ears as I swiftly turned around. An omega was abducted. A chill ran down my spine as I realised the graveness of the situation. If they were ready to break in and take our pack members, the war was not far away.    What now? The question kept echoing, my hand protectively wrapping Arnold in my tummy. How in the world was I going to protect our pup during this? No doubt the news of a new pup, especially an Alphas child, will bring joy to the people, but I still had to tell Aiden about it.     Shaking my head, I focused on my erratic breathing, sweat droplets dripping down the forehead. I found skidding to a halt in front of the wooden door, a gush of dirt flying into the air as I almost drifted. A few candles lit in the windows dressed the walls on both sides, illuminating stretched silho

The Alphas low growl reverberated off the walls as my eardrums trembled, but I was jerked around by a heavy hand on my wrist and pressed to the wall. My lashes felt damp as I snivelled and bit on my lip against a whimper at the distinct scent, dark and Alpha. In all these months, I had never seen Aiden act so agitated and angry, a deadly combination.    "I-I..."   "Do you even realise what you have done?" The wrinkle between his furrowed brows had deepened, but his eyes were set to my left like he was preparing for an attack. No one followed us anyway, but the Alpha was being paranoid about it.     I cleared my throat, breaking the silence that settled over us, my voice came out still a bit grainy. “Aiden, I only wanted to talk the

I could see his chest rise and fall even through his jumper and coat, the Alpha appearing pitiful puppy, with strands that's escaped his hairdo sticking to his cheeks and forehead. His eyes were as red as his face from the biting cold.   “Will you at least hear me out?” He said eventually, still standing in front of me, voice as rough as sandpaper and looking the part as well.    My heart raced, eyes trained on the closed door. What was I going to do now? Ellen must be waiting for me to take me to the clinic. There’s no way Aiden was letting me walk out of there without listening to his explanation.     “What could you possibly say now?”   “I am sorry.&rdq
