Liam

I rounded the corner and was now standing in front of Dad's chamber. I exhaled sharply, forcing some calm into myself as I pushed the door open.

The room came alive in a wash of enormous golden light that shimmered across every corner of the space, some of it streaming in through the tall windows while the rest poured from the grand chandelier suspended just beneath the ceiling.

Dad’s room was massive, one of the largest in the house. Furnished with an expansive bed, a private study area t

  • The Rejected Plump Mate, Now Wanted   138: Abyss of darkness 2

    DamianI hated the fact that I had let her see how terrified I truly was. This wasn’t the initial plan Aaron and I had crafted to get the witch to a point where manipulating her into believing us would become easier.Maybe, at some point, I simply couldn’t stand the audacity anymore. Or the horrifying recognition of her intentions, even without her saying them aloud.But who wouldn’t be terrified?Hearing her threaten my mate was one thing, but the mirrors… the faint glow spreading across them before the image of Aurora finally appeared…My heart dropped violently at the sight before me.It was the kind of horror I couldn’t even find the strength to voice aloud, yet it still cracked something heavily guarded inside my chest.“Aurora!” I screamed, trying to reach her, but the shackles only tightened harder than before, pulsing with dark magic three times stronger than the initial force. My knees slammed against the hard marble floor as pain shot violently through me.I couldn’t stand t

  • The Rejected Plump Mate, Now Wanted   137: Abyss of darkness 1

    Monica All I wanted was for him to fall into my trap. I wanted him to see all the goodness woven into my promises and to embrace the freedom and light that came with pure dominance. And in return, my condition, when properly layered, would finally be met. But what if it didn’t work? What if he didn’t want every good thing I had promised him? What if all he ever wanted was the freedom to be with his mate and nothing else? No… I bit down on my lips as my heart lurged violently and furiously, the air of dominance slipping through every space of my body. But I quickly pulled it back within myself as I studied him for a while. I wasn’t wrong when I told myself he was a man of pure heart and strong will. And I wasn’t merely flattering myself when I said he was handsome. So gorgeous and even more breathtaking at close range that his scent alone was intoxicating, like I was getting drunk off it, and I never wanted the intoxication to end. If nothing else, I wanted more. Not that I

  • The Rejected Plump Mate, Now Wanted   Author's note

    Alert.There are intense triggers and spoilers in the next few chapters. Please don’t skip them.I promise they won’t feel dragged out before the story finally begins to fall into place. It should take only about five chapters or thereabouts.Damian and Aurora’s journey is far from predictable, as more shocking twists and gripping turns are yet to unfold. The Moon Goddess still has a lot in store for them. And as the saying goes, truly extraordinary things never come easy.Fingers crossed… The journey continues.We are yet to hear from Aurora, so we still don’t know what has happened to her or where she has been taken.And with an ancient witch as powerful as Monica involved, I don’t think things are going to get any easier.

    DamianHer eyes fixed ahead while her head remained perfectly still toward a dark path I wasn’t interested in discovering, either because I simply didn’t care or because my tense heart refused to register it.Even then, my mind wasn’t here.“Any progress?” I asked Aaron, who was still fighting the pull relentlessly.Silence.Then came a faint yet determined hum.“I don’t know,” he muttered. “But I’m still trying. I doubt we can break through unless the witch does something… or we somehow find another way around it.”“Then we can’t stay still. Fight, Aaron. Fight. We are not weak alphas meant to be reduced to puppets by some witch,” I urged, straining against my restraints while enduring the stinging pain coursing through our bloodstream from whatever had been forged into those shackles.“It’s not that easy,” Aaron groaned tiredly. “Not unless we do something.”“Do something like what?” I asked.But my wolf suddenly went silent, as though he were observing the witch with quiet uncertai

    Damian And it felt like I was the one it had all been carefully designed for.Every instinct inside me sharpened with terrifying precision. My eyes blazed violently beneath the dimness while my ears strained against the suffocating silence, listening for even the faintest sound that could somehow lead me back to my mate.I wasn’t making conclusions yet.My head was too buzzed, too overwhelmed, too clouded to properly force all the shattered pieces together.If I was trapped here for reasons I had yet to uncover, then my mate should either be somewhere around here… or dangerously close by.Unless there was another attack entirely.Another enemy. Another force moving in the shadows beyond the one already looming over us.Could there really be two separate individuals after both of us?No.That couldn’t possibly be the case.The darkness surrounding this place felt far too familiar. Far too connected. It carried the exact same sinister pull I had felt during the ambush. The same twisted

    Damian Just immediately… “Well, well… look who finally graced my abode.” A strange, unfamiliar voice pierced through the air as Aaron curled up violently inside my head, forcing my attention toward the direction of the voice. A figure stood several meters away beneath the dim glow surrounding the chamber. The darkness concealed most of her features, but faint streaks of shimmering light danced through strands of her hair whenever she moved. A long flowing garment draped over her body, concealing her figure beneath layers of dark fabric that swayed softly with the unnatural current in the room. Yet despite the shadows, one thing was certain. That voice belonged to a woman. My jaw locked instantly as I attempted to step forward, only for an unfamiliar restraint to seize me in place. The force hit like invisible chains forged from something ancient and merciless. My wrists burned. My legs felt rooted to the ground beneath me as though the air itself had hardened around my body. E

    DamianThe vast land stretched out before me like an irritable curse that, no matter what, you could never pull away from. Aaron sat quietly in my head, unusually silent for once. Just like me, he was already drained from everything that had happened so far, yet instinct kept dragging us forward wh

    Liam“No… no… no…” I kept pounding my fists against the steering wheel as the words tore sharply from my throat.My mind was so rigid right now that I felt like I could wrench down an entire pack with the brutality of my rage.That call, those texts, and those pictures couldn’t possibly be real.

    Aurora“You seemed to have forgotten that you have no will when it comes to me. You are still mine, rightfully bound to me, with or without the mate bond. And that was only a plus to everything, notwithstanding those silly elders’ judgments.” Liam’s rough voice tore through me, sending an unsettlin

    LiamI had followed the trail the tires left behind, trusting my instincts and sharp craftiness to lead me in the right direction faster than ever before.
