THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE CHAPTER TWENTY: THE AWAKENING
The ancient howl faded, but its power lingered inside the council chamber. Not a single wolf dared to move. The torches continued to burn with unnatural intensity, their flames bending toward Maya as though answering an invisible command. Kai tightened his grip around her waist. "Maya." She struggled to steady her breathing. The pain had eased, but warmth still pulsed beneath her palms where they rested protectively over her stomach. "I... I'm okay." "No," Sage whispered. "You're not." All eyes shifted toward the pack healer. Sage slowly approached, her emerald eyes fixed on Maya's abdomen. She hesitated before kneeling. "May I?" Maya nodded. Sage placed one careful hand over Maya's stomach. The instant their skin touched, a wave of energy burst outward. A sharp gust of wind swept through the chamber. The torches flickered wildly. Several council members stumbled backward. Sage jerked her hand away. "It pushed me back." Marcus frowned. "The baby?" Sage looked genu
THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE CHAPTER NINETEEN: THE ENEMY WITHIN
The council chamber fell into a suffocating silence.Every pair of eyes remained fixed on Maya.The silver chalice sat untouched on the stone table between her and the council members, its surface reflecting the flames dancing inside the ancient torches.Councilor Silvercrest leaned back in his chair, satisfaction gleaming in his pale blue eyes."So?" he asked. "Will you drink?"Maya looked at the cup without moving.Every instinct inside her screamed that something was wrong.Not because she believed the council would poison her.If they wanted her dead, they would not do it in front of dozens of witnesses.No.Whatever was inside that chalice was meant to prove something.Or expose something.She slowly lifted her gaze toward Kai.He stood at the far end of the chamber with Marcus beside him, both forbidden by tradition from interfering with the trial.Kai's jaw was locked so tightly she thought his teeth might shatter.His silver eyes never left her.Don't do it.He never spoke the
THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE CHAPTER EIGHTEEN: THE RETURN OF THE EXILED ALPHA
The howl lingered over Shadow Peak long after the wind had died.No wolf moved.No one spoke.The sound carried something every Alpha recognized instantly.A challenge.Kai stood motionless beside Maya, his silver eyes fixed on the dark mountains beyond the manor.Marcus broke the silence first."The scouts are waiting in the council chamber."Kai nodded once."I'll be there."Marcus glanced at Maya before leaving."Bring Sage."The council chamber buzzed with uneasy voices.Around the ancient stone table sat the highest-ranking wolves in the Blackwood Pack.Several warriors bore fresh bandages from the Blood Hunters' attack.Others still had dried blood on their armor.The room fell silent when Kai entered.Maya followed with Sage close behind.Some elders frowned immediately.One muttered under his breath."She shouldn't be here."Kai's icy gaze swept across the room."Anyone who has a problem with Maya being present may leave."No one moved.Aldric stepped toward the map carved int
THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE CHAPTER SEVENTEEN: THE TRAITOR'S MARK
The storm had passed.But the silence it left behind was far more unsettling.Blackwood Manor stood scarred.Broken windows exposed the cold morning air. Cracked stone walls bore fresh claw marks. The scent of smoke and blood lingered in every corridor despite the servants' efforts to scrub away every trace of the night's battle.No one spoke above a whisper.The Blood Hunters had retreated.Yet everyone knew they would return.Kai stood in the center of the great hall, turning the silver pendant over in his hand.The wolf shaped charm caught the morning light.Marcus folded his arms."You've looked at that thing for an hour.""It isn't ordinary."Kai traced the strange markings engraved around its edges."No."Marcus agreed."It isn't."Aldric approached from the staircase."I recognize those symbols."Kai looked up."You do?""They belonged to the King's Guard."Marcus frowned."But the King's Guard was dissolved decades ago.""So everyone believed."Aldric's expression hardened."T
THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE CHAPTER SIXTEEN: THE GUARDIANS OF SHADOW PEAK
The mountain trembled beneath their feet.Every wolf in the manor fell silent.Even the Blood Hunters hesitated.The ancient howl rolled across Shadow Peak once more, deeper than thunder, older than memory itself. It seemed to rise from the earth instead of the sky.Kai forced himself to his feet despite the wolfsbane burning through his veins.His chest rose and fell heavily.The hunter leader narrowed his eyes toward the forest."What is that?"Aldric answered quietly."The Guardians."Marcus looked between his father and Kai."You've seen them before?""No.""They were already legends when I was a pup."Another howl echoed.Closer.This time the walls shook hard enough for pieces of stone to rain from the ceiling.Outside, every Blackwood wolf lowered their heads instinctively.Not in fear.In respect.Deep beneath the manor, Maya stopped walking.The warmth inside her had grown stronger.Her heart wasn't the only heartbeat she could hear anymore.Another rhythm pulsed beneath her
THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE CHAPTER FIFTEEN: THE BLOOD HUNTERS
The warning bells continued to echo across Blackwood Territory.Their deep, metallic toll rolled through the forest like thunder, waking every wolf within miles.Outside the manor, warriors poured into the courtyard. Some shifted into enormous wolves before disappearing into the darkness, while others remained in human form, armed with silver blades and reinforced crossbows.Rain lashed against the stone walls.Lightning split the sky.Maya stood frozen in the library doorway as the manor transformed into a fortress.Kai grabbed a black leather jacket from a nearby chair and shrugged it over his broad shoulders. His silver eyes had turned completely amber.His wolf was close.Very close.Marcus fastened a sword across his back."The eastern patrol has gone silent."Kai's jaw tightened."Dead?"Marcus nodded once."We don't know how many made it through the border."Aldric's voice remained calm despite the tension."They didn't come for territory.""They came for Maya."Silence settled
THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE CHAPTER TWO: COLLISION
She checked his pulse. Thready. Skin clammy. He needed help.But she couldn't go back inside. Couldn't face that hospital again."Come on." She hooked her arms under his shoulders, straining against his weight. He was tall, muscular, dead weight in her arms. "Walk with me."Step by painful step, sh
THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE CHAPTER ONE: SHATTERED
The voice drifted through the hospital corridor, breathy and raw with pleasure.Maya's sneakers squeaked against the polished floor as she stopped mid-step. Her hands tightened around the plastic bags she carried. Protein bars. Fresh clothes. The expensive dark chocolate James loved.Room 304. Jame
THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE CHAPTER FIVE: THE CALL SHE WAS NEVER MEANT TO HEAR
KNOCK.KNOCK.KNOCK.The sound echoed through Maya's apartment.She sat upright on the couch, her heart pounding so hard it hurt.For a moment she thought she was still dreaming.The nightmare had felt too real.The hand around her throat.The suffocating darkness.The terrifying sense that someone
THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE CHAPTER FOUR: THE HUNT
Kai Blackwood stood motionless in the center of his pack's grand hall, every muscle coiled tight as the priestess's words echoed off the stone walls."The Alpha has impregnated a human." Her voice was thin, ancient, condemning. "An abomination. The human and the pup must be eliminated before the ne
