KILLIAN’S POV

Slowly, I tapped my finger on the hardwood, creating a steady rhythm while glaring across the table from under my lashes. The elders were indirectly trying to convey a point, but not one of them dared face me with it. Not a single one of them had directly presented the sentence before me, and that was what I was waiting for. I wanted to clear the air, but first, I needed them to pollute it.

“I heard they investigated what her lineage was like, found out she was related to a generation of old wizards through her father,” Kael muttered to his colleagues, refusing to face me for reasons best known to him, even though he was speaking to me.

“Not sure if it is the best thing having a witch’s blood on the throne.” Corwin chimed in, slowly running his hand through his horse mane of hair and appearing to be deeply thinking through Kael’s words.

I continued to stare without a single word.

“The girl has proved herself worthy, Corwin. I think that is all that matters,” Matteo sighe

    KILLIAN'S POVI watched Celeste keenly while she unknowingly continued to play with her nails. She was nervous and had come in here not just to be with me but to ask something, something that was definitely eating at her. I was dying to pry the worry off her and solve her problem right here. But I didn’t, reminding myself that it was far better to let her speak at her own pace. It probably took her a lot of confidence to get here to begin with. Forcing her to talk when she wasn't ready will only make her even more nervous. “She will tell me when she is ready.” I reminded myself multiple times as I continued to work on my computer. I got so lost in my job that time slowly faded away, and the worry shifted to the back of my mind. I could still feel it weighing me down, but I was too occupied to think about it. Then, without warning, Celeste spoke. “Killian?” Her voice sounded like a squeal, like a mouse caught in the middle of a catastrophe. I raised my head slowly to stare at her,

  • Alpha's Cursed Twain   CHAPTER 277

    CELESTE’S POVI thought that after the situation with Malthus, nothing could ever move me like this letter. Then came my marriage, which proved me wrong to the core. Then I thought I had had the last shock, and nothing else could beat that. But then I was sent a letter by my father to announce that he was alive. It sounded ridiculous to me. What the heck was I supposed to do with that piece of information?My father? He was alive? He had been, all this while. He heard about how I was being treated and followed my life story with complete dedication, but not once did he intervene to ease my worries. Not once did he think of telling me he was alive when I had cried myself to sleep a thousand times, hugging his pillow out of loneliness.If all those times weren’t perfect enough to show himself, then why now? Why would he spring up from wherever he was hiding all of a sudden and try to make an appearance in my life after I have sacrificed everything to smoothen my ride? Was he waiting for

    KILLIAN’S POV“A postcard?” I muttered before Celeste, curiosity already tugging at me. You don’t just wake up every day and get sent postcards; people don’t even use them anymore. They’re considered abandoned and old-fashioned. That’s why it caught my attention so quickly.“I believe you should open it then.”Probably noticing how curious I was, Celeste handed it over, letting me take the first look. I collected the box from her, mostly because whatever it contained might not be safe for her to open.She came to stand above me, her face pressed against my shoulder as she waited. There was no address, no name. That should have been the first red flag, but I went ahead and tore the cover paper aside.It took a while before I reached the actual content of a letter. Who would go through the trouble of sending a postcard just to deliver a letter? My confusion grew into suspicion with every passing second, and by the time I opened it and began reading, I knew my instincts had been right al

    CELESTE’S POVThe first thing that rang through my head the minute I opened my eyes—even before I could make sense of my surroundings, was the fact that I was married.A freaking married lady!What on earth was I supposed to do with that piece of information? I pressed my face into the pillow and punched it hard in an attempt to stop myself from screaming instead.Oh no, I can’t believe I actually let this happen. I was married, for Goddess’ sake! How was I supposed to process that?“If I didn’t know better, I would have said the concussion you had a month back might have gone deeper than we assumed.”I froze when I heard Killian’s voice above me. I thought he had left the room. The memory of what happened last night flooded my head, and I was a hot mess even before I raised my head to stare into his eyes.“Go away!!” I mumbled into the pillow, sounding so grumpy it was pathetic.“Come on, Mrs. Killian, what could possibly be wrong with you the morning after your wedding?” His hand br

    KILLIAN’S POV“Ahh… the almighty Killian, I dreamt of this moment.” I twirled around to face Alpha Damian of the Full Moon pack. His petite figure was well hidden behind the bodies of his guards; his infamous seven guards meant to protect him. He never traveled anywhere without them.“Seeing me again after so long or attending my wedding? You need to be specific.” I joked as I shoved my hand forward to meet his halfway.“I would say both, but I am more stunned by the wedding. I would have never assumed. No one would have.” He sounded giddy, like a little child in a candy store.“Where is the fun in having a predictable life, Damian? You should have known me by now.” I shook his hand firmly.“I do… oh, I do… trust me. But marriage? Even for you, that is too feral. Still, I am not complaining. Enjoy the moment, they say, right men?” The men around him all nodded in agreement, even though he made little to no sense.I nodded respectfully and attempted to move away to the next guest, but

    CELESTE’S POVAnytime reality hit me, I struggled—and it always managed to knock the breath out of me no matter how many times I remembered. It felt surreal.Me? Getting married? I never thought marriage and I would ever be in the same sentence. I had never once in my life paused to think about it. Not even after discovering my mate.Now, standing before the long floor-length mirror, staring at how perfectly the wedding dress fit me, reality hit like a raging tornado, a gut-wrenching one at that.“Why are you crying?” Flora’s voice came from behind me. I hadn’t even realized tears had gathered in my eyes until she pointed it out.“I’m… actually getting married, aren’t I?” My voice sounded as anxious as I felt. Flora only chuckled knowingly and placed a comforting hand on my shoulder.“The day I married Victor…” I tried hard not to flinch at the mention of his name. Though her mate had met his end, Flora stayed loyal to the pack and continued serving the kingdom. She had expressed her
