Lahat ng Kabanata ng Alpha's Mistress and the Beta: Kabanata 81 - Kabanata 90

Raphael’s POV I shouldn't have kissed her. Now I have to cheat on her. I swore I wouldn’t go back to that stupid woman, but now I really have to. It’s been weeks since I f*cked her. I wait for Raven to sleep, then shoot her a quick text. Me: Are you up? Her: Yes. Me: I need to see you... now... please. Her: Wait for me, I’m on my way. She knows where we always meet. It’s still midday, so we need to be discreet. I head out first to my other apartment downtown. No one knows that I own it, not even Zahra. I wait for her inside as I freshen up. We’ve been casually f*cking even when we were abroad. I would sneak into her bedroom whenever Mason was out, and she never once pushed me away. At first, I did it because I had a massive crush on her and all she ever looked at was Mason. So one day I tried my shot, and she actually didn’t push me away. Then I met Raven, and everything changed the moment I saw her. All the affection I felt for Zahra vanished, and I knew right then and there

Caleb's POV I can't take this anymore, I need to go for a run. I need to take my mind off the thoughts of Raven being intimate with Raphael. It's driving me insane. I can’t sit in this room, can’t look at the walls that feel like they’re closing in on me. I need to move. I need to run. I let Fenric take over, my wolf, surges forward, a storm of muscle and fur, dragging me out of my skin, out of my pain. Together we burst into the night. His paws barely touch the earth as we race through the darkness, the cold wind slashing through my fur like needles but also clearing the haze in my head. Fenric runs fast, so fast, and I let myself go completely, drowning in his speed, in his instincts, in the escape. In no time, we’re deep in the woods. The full moon hangs high and round in the sky, its silver glow bathing the trees in a ghostly light. The power of the moon heightens every emotion in me, grief, rage, heartbreak, until it all fuses into a single, wordless howl. Fenric tilts his

Raven’s POV I wake up in his arms, his embrace so tight as if I would slip away forever if he lets go. His breathing is steady, soothing, a rhythm that lulls me into peace. I feel at home and safe, despite not truly knowing him, at least not in the way my memories should allow. And suddenly, I’m completely aware of our nakedness. My body flushes with heat, every nerve burning with desire. I want him, no, I need him. Every inch of me aches for Caleb, and I know only one thing will quench this unbearable thirst. Rays of sunlight slip through the small window and spill across his face. The golden glow makes him look unreal, godlike. I carefully ease myself from his grip just enough to admire him. His lashes are long and dark, his face peaceful and strong. And his lips, those sinful lips. “Shit,” I whisper to myself as I bite my lower lip, trembling with restraint. I can’t take it anymore. I lean down and brush the softest kiss over his mouth. But the second my lips touch his, I r

Caleb’s POV Raven is quiet, she hasn’t said another word, she sits by the small window of the cabin, the blanket wrapped loosely around her shoulders, staring at the trees outside as if they’re whispering something only she can hear. Her eyes are distant, lost somewhere between peace and guilt and it kills me. Every instinct in me wants to reach out, to touch her, to remind her that she’s safe here with me that she doesn’t have to carry whatever storm still lingers inside her. But I also know she needs space. She’s trying to make sense of everything: the bond, the moon, the fragments of memory that still haunt her. Fenric is restless in the back of my mind. I rise from the bed and walk toward her. The floor creaks softly beneath my feet, and she glances at me over her shoulder, eyes flickering golden for just a second before turning human again. She’s fighting something inside, the storm, the pull, maybe even Raphael’s lingering presence. “Hey,” I say gently, crouching be

Raven’s POV The more I stay with Caleb the more I fall for him, my heart just knows he's the one, his scent, his smile everything about him is mesmerizing. He's so gentle with me, I feel like no one has ever treated me like he is. I sit across the kitchen counter, admiring him as he plays with the ingredients, no shirt on, just tiny swim shorts. He looks edible, to be honest. I'm just left biting my lower lip. The peace that I feel while here with him is unimaginable. I just wish I could remember all the things I forgot about him. "Why do you keep staring.” He asks, smiling or is he blushing? "Well, I just can't stop, you look ravishing.” I say. "Mmh really?” He smiles so wide, I've never seen him smiling like that, my heart swells. How I wish that I could be making him smile like this each and every day. How I wish our life was just ordinary so we could be happy. "Yes you do, and I can't stop looking at you.” I say. "I don't want you to stop, Raven. I want to
