A Bond Not Meant To Be Chapter 42: The visitor
Lucille froze the moment the figure stepped into her room.He was tall. Broad shoulders. His steps were quiet but heavy.The way he stood felt familiar. She squinted through the darkness, her wolf eyes adjusting to the shadows, but the figure remained unclear.“Who’s there?” she asked, her voice shaky.The figure didn’t respond.Lucille sat up sharply on the bed, her heart racing in her chest. “I said who’s there?”Suddenly, the figure turned and left. The door creaked as it opened wider, then slowly shut behind him.Lucille rushed to the door and locked it, her hands trembling. Her breathing was fast. Her mind ran wild.Who was that? Why didn’t they answer? Why did they come in?She backed away from the door, her back hitting the wall. She slid down slowly and wrapped her arms around her knees.She didn’t sleep again that night. Every sound made her flinch. Every creak, every rustle of wind, made her eyes shoot open.By morning, her head throbbed painfully. She sat up, wincing, and t
A Bond Not Meant To Be Chapter 41: Unexpected change
Lucille laid on the bed, her gaze on the ceiling. She could still feel a slight pressure on her head.She blinked a few times, recalling all that had happened just few hours she left the cell.Ophelia was sitting beside her, gently dabbing a cold cloth on the side of her head where the bruise had formed. The cool water made her skin tingle, and Lucille sighed in relief."Thank you," she mutteredA smile crept onto Ophelia's face. “How do you feel now?” Her voice was soft and gentle, filled with concern.Lucille moved her hand to touch the bruised area on her head. It was swollen, but not as much as before.Her fingers pressed softly against the spot, and she winced slightly. It felt tender, but there was no sharp pain.“I feel better,” Lucille replied slowly, her voice hoarse from the fall. “It’s not as bad as before.”Ophelia smiled at her. “Good. You should be feeling less dizzy now. The herbs should help with the pain too.”Lucille closed her eyes for a moment, trying to ignore the

Ophelia returned to the room, holding a small keg filled with already cooked herbs in her hand. She was smiling to herself, glad she could do something to help Lucille feel better.But when she stepped into the room, her smile disappeared. Lucille wasn’t there.Ophelia looked around. The bed was empty. The juice glass was still on the table, untouched.“Lucille?” she called, walking deeper into the room. No answer.Her eyes went to the bathroom door. It was closed. She must be bathing.She returned to the table, then dropped the keg on it and made to leave. She stopped. She needed to let Lucille know she had brought the herbs?She walked over to the bathroom, and knocked gently. “Lucille? The herb is on the table.”She expected a response, but got none. She placed her ear against the door, listening for sounds, but none came.She frowned, then knocked again, harder this time. “Lucille!”Yet, no sound, no response.Panic rose in her throat. She grabbed the doorknob and tried to turn it,

The pain was sharp, and everywhere.Lucille curled up a little on the chair, holding her stomach. A sharp pain stabbed through her belly. She couldn’t breathe well. Her mouth felt dry and sticky. Her heart raced fast.What was happening to her? She tried to sit up, but her head spun. She felt dizzy, and cold sweat covered her forehead.A knock came softly on the door. Before Lucille could answer, the door opened."Lucille?" a soft voice called.It was Ophelia. She had heard from the servants that Lucille was back, so she sneaked in to see her.Lucille turned her head slowly and saw Ophelia standing at the door.As soon as Ophelia walked in, her face twisted. She wrinkled her nose like she smelled something bad. The room smelled damp, sweaty, and mixed with the smell of the food Lucille just ate.But then Ophelia stopped, her eyes locked on Lucille, who was holding her stomach, her face twisted in pain. Ophelia forgot about the bad smell right away."Oh no! What happened?" Ophelia crie
A Bond Not Meant To Be Chapter 38: Good food, Poison
She looked around the streets like an animal hunted by a predator. No one was chasing her. No guards, no spies, no black van waiting to grab her.This was her chance. Maybe the Goddess was helping her, giving her a way to be free.She could run far away, to another place where no one knew her name or her past. She could start over, live a new life, and maybe one day, come back for her family.With that hope burning inside her, she turned and rushed toward the bus stop at the end of the street.There were free buses going to nearby towns. If she got on one now, she could go home first, grab a few things, and see her mother, just one last time.Her steps got faster. Her breathing got short. The world around her felt big and full of new dreams of a better life, somewhere far away.But when she reached the bus station and saw the people waiting calmly, a cold feeling stabbed her chest. A heavy doubt filled her heart.What if it’s a trick? What if Edward wanted her to run, just so he could
A Bond Not Meant To Be Chapter 37
AT THE CRIMINAL REGISTRY BUREAU“Are you really going to do this?” Mark asked, worry all over his face, as they sat in the car parked outside the Bureau.During the entire ride, Mark had silently hoped Edward would change his mind, maybe take a U-turn or pretend they forgot something at home. But no, Edward only took one turn, and it led them straight here.“Watch me,” Edward replied coldly, pushing the car door open.“Please, think about it,” Mark said, grabbing his arm.Edward shot him a sharp look that could cut through his skin. He yanked his arm away and stepped out without another word.Mark quickly followed. “Don’t tell me the four years you spent with Mabel were just to make Lucille jealous?”Edward turned and gave him a death stare. “Do you ever stop talking nonsense?” he barked and marched ahead.Just then, Ellis’s car zoomed into the parking lot. The moment he spotted Edward and Mark heading toward the entrance, he practically leapt out of his car, forgetting to even lock i
