Filed To Story: Goddess's Design His Fated Mate (Willow & Reuben)
I wanted to die at that moment when he mentioned it, “Nothing happened between us!”
He loved the expression on my face and leaned closer to my lips, “it is something only you and I know. Will Reuben believe it? Every bite mark on your body screams my name. I’ve made you my whore, my bitch that will spread her legs only for me from tonight! Do you think he’ll accept a whore?”
he jeered.
I bit my lip to stifle my tears and replied, “Reuben will believe me. He loves me for who I am, not just my body.”
“What a blind love,”
he scoffed angrily, yanking violently at my hair. “But I wonder if he’ll still love the woman who won’t be his anymore, not just physically but also down to her soul.”
I shuddered at his words. “What do you mean I won’t be his, not even my soul? I belong to Reuben, now and always,”
I retorted, only to then recoil as his gaze slid from my eyes to my neck, where my mate mark was. “What what are you looking at?”
I began to struggle in his grasp, terrified of the sinister intent in his eyes focused on my mark.
“What if you are no longer his soulmate?”
he locked eyes with me, the corner of his lips curling into a meaningful smile.
“No ”
I shook my head, understanding his intentions. “Please don’t,”
I struggled wildly, waving my arm around, “NO000!!”
I cried, pushed him away then turned around to run out of the room. But just as I was getting away, the door closed itself and Dark caught me.
“Where do you think you are going?”
he growled and pinned me on the floor.
“NO! DON’T!!”
I screamed, but he ruthlessly tilted my neck to the side and bit my neck, marking me over Reuben’s mark. “NOOOOO ”
I howled loudly in pain seeing it felt like my soul and wolf were being ripped out of my body. His mate mark killed something inside me as Reuben’s mate mark on my neck disappeared.
He pulled his canines out, licked the blood clean and whispered in my ear, “Now you are only mine,”
he kissed my lips and got off me. I lay on the floor motionless and in pain. “You have half an hour to get ready for the wedding. Don’t make me come find you,”
saying, he turned and left the room.
I slowly lifted my hand and touched my neck where Reuben’s mark had once been. Tears gathered in my eyes and I cried loudly. “Reuben ”
I couldn’t feel him anymore. I could not feel our mate bond. I lost him. I curled into a ball and cried loudly. I had lost everything that meant anything to me; my parents, my children, and now Reuben too.
“Luna,”
that woman once again came with the wedding dress in her arms. “Please take a shower and I will help you to get dressed,”
curled on the floor, I stared at the wedding gown for a long time. So it was how everything was suppose to be from the beginning? Reuben and I could never be together?
I lay on the ground like a dead, staring at the wedding gown that was nothing but grave-clothes for me. I bit my lips harder and dug my nails in my palm.
I got up and took the dress from the woman’s arms and entered the bathroom. She looked at me in surprise. Standing under the shower, I recalled the death of my parents and every pack member. My children were in coma, my dignity was long gone and I no longer shared a bond with Reuben. I had nothing to lose.
I donned the wedding dress and did my own hair before I looked at myself in the mirror.
From then on there would be no tears or pain. I opened the door where the woman stood with a bouquet of flowers in her hand that I snatched and tossed the train of the long gown behind me before I walked to the room where Dark was standing under the glass roof from which the dark sky could be seen.
He looked me up and down before locking eyes with my dead ones. My claws secretly came out in blood thirst as he extended a hand to me.
I would take revenge for everything he had done to me. From now on there would be either Dark or Willow in this world, not both.
I had nothing to lose.

Emerald Bright Pack
I ran my fingertips over the note, my eyes tracing the words written upon it.
“Don’t leave the territory until I return. Wait for me.”
My heart raced once more. Who was supposed to wait for him? Why was he behaving so strangely? Hadn’t anyone told this hunter how illegible his handwriting was?
I raised my hand to crumple the note to toss it away, but hesitated. Despite the pack being on high alert, teetering on the brink of attack with sadness permeating the air, this note that he had left seemed to provide some semblance of companionship, urging me to endure just a little longer. It helped me to feel less alone.
Clutching the note tightly in my fist, I leaned back against the cold wall outside the children’s bedroom where I had been sitting for what felt like an eternity. I couldn’t bear to actually be in there, witnessing their pale faces and deteriorating condition. Now with the New Moon upon us, my heart sank even further. I glanced up at the window, where nothing but darkness greeted me. Willow was in danger
Tightly Closing my eyes, I tried to shut out the world around me, but the voices of Alpha Louis and Alpha Adam penetrated my consciousness. Both men were seated on the other side of Wyatt and Lori’s bed, their conversation filling the room.
“When you weren’t around, I tried to explain to Reuben about the danger surrounding Willow, that it would consume everything if he kept her in his life. Of course, he was too obsessed to listen. Now his children are knocking on death’s door and that girl is taken away,”
Alpha Adam’s voice was low and filled with regret as he observed the children struggling to breathe. Alpha Louis had been released from the Emerald Bright prison some time ago by Alpha Adam.
“The issue isn’t the girl herself, it’s the evil blood coursing through her veins,”
Alpha Louis remarked.
“Evil blood? Why is that a problem? Wasn’t it Elder Frank who said the evil blood was dormant inside her? Due to that fact, she’s as ordinary as the rest of us,”
Alpha Adam countered.
“Yes, Frank said it’s dormant, but Dark is after Willow because of her evil blood. That means it can be awakened inside her somehow, someday,”
Alpha Louis predicted, his voice tinged with uncertainty, yet his words caught my attention.
“What will happen if that evil blood awakens inside her?”
Alpha Adam inquired.
The two men exchanged a silent glance, the tension in the air palpable as they contemplated the dire possibilities. “Let’s just hope it never happens because she may become another Dark,”
Alpha Louis replied, his voice low and tinged with fear at the potential consequences for everyone involved.
I could no longer stay calm and entered the room, “
