CHAPTER 38: I WON!

Author: JOSHUA A CROWN
last update publish date: 2026-09-13 21:41:33

Tanya's POV.

I watch the clock on the wall with massive strain on my heart, the seconds ticking down at a pace that can't be considered slow or fast. Only agonizing, like it's mocking my slow inch towards demise. When it lands on one, dread succumbs to my system and I face up to the fact that it's the end of my time in the competition.

But before I'm left to accept failure, Marco bursts through the door with cosmic conviction. His perfectly placed golden blonde locks swaying with the movement

  • BETRAYED BY BLOOD    CHAPTER 78: MARCO IS DRUNK

    Tanya's POV. I'm completely frozen solid in place, unable to grasp the situation. My brain is trying to come up with all sorts of reasons that didn't imply the obvious. There is no one else in the room with me other than Claire, and she is now softly asleep. My eyes snap to my child just to be sure, but as I assume, she's snoring away. My eyes glance to my surroundings, trying to find another person, not knowing if I really want there to be another person... But all I see and hear is my phone crying out for my attention. To the which the voice once again speaks out. 'Are you not gonna answer it?' I don't have time to respond to the mysterious voice, instead I pick up the phone, hearing that it is Oliver on the other line. "Hey Tanya, I'm very sorry to bother you but..." he sighs, and for a second I worry something bad has happened. "Could you come take Marco home? He's really drunk." A sigh of relief escapes me, for I'd rather Marco be drunk, than hurt. Before I can respond, my ea

  • BETRAYED BY BLOOD    CHAPTER 77: I HEAR MY WOLF’S VOICE

    Tanya's POV. Marco suddenly plants his feet in a stop. I watch him trifle with his emotions as his mouth opens and closes awkwardly. For once. I have caught the Lycan Prince by surprise. Course not for long, his slip up is quickly corrected, and I frown as he hardens his expression again, and he talks with immense stiffness. "I made you sign it because of Claire. She needs a father, as well as a mother. So, I want us to play the role of the perfect loving couple so that she grows up in a happy home. It's for her." I sigh. I still don't believe him. Something in my gut feels like he is just telling me this to avoid embarrassment. However, I can't prod any further because he then says in somewhat of a retort. "Even if I maybe concealed the truth a little. You also lied to me. You kissed me the other night and the next morning you acted like it was nothing! You completely denied it when I asked you." I look at Marco with immense surprise and almost slight discomfort, a blush creeping

  • BETRAYED BY BLOOD    CHAPTER 76: MARCO, ISABELLA TOLD ME SHE DIDN'T HAVE A SPECIAL HOBBY

    Tanya's POV. As I hoped, my words somehow inspired Peyton's desire to live. The wailing of the medical monitors start to quiet down, and soon they beep at a much calmer pace. The surrounding doctors look astonished, but reveal that the measuring machines are showing that Peyton's physical state is changing for the better. And that although Peyton remains in a coma, she should hopefully awaken within a day's time. Finally, I turn to face the curious eyes that surround me. I sigh. No one is going to like what I'm about to tell them. But the truth needs to be known. "I found a letter written to Peyton by a gentleman who came to visit from another kingdom about a year ago." I sigh, unable to face Peyton's fated mate, Russel. "The gentleman who came to visit secretly fell in love with Peyton and he convinced her that their love was real. I guess, she believed him, and felt like her original mate bond was a mistake. That she was mistakenly tied to the wrong person rather than thinking of

  • BETRAYED BY BLOOD    CHAPTER 75: PEYTON DRANK THE POISON BY HERSELF

    Tanya's POV. Upon exiting Peyton's old room, I realize that the entire palace is in chaos. Everyone is panicking over the princess's physical state. Maids are rushing about with wet towels and water, nobles are alerting the neighboring royal families. Butlers are heading off to call the known doctors. I can see that everyone dearly cares for the princess. As do I. But my job is much different to theirs. I hurry into one of the empty rooms, closing the door to shut out the cluster of apprehension that whiz about outside. I scrape away items off one of the tables and pull out the box, emptying the torn pieces of paper onto the workspace. Step by step, piece by piece, like a child's puzzle set, I connect the pages, reconnecting torn words and linking the shredded pieces. Soon I have reassembled the entire page. Satisfied, I read through it carefully, my eyes growing wider as they trail down the page. Shock, surprise, and dread ignite in my system. I know that I have to find Isabella i

  • BETRAYED BY BLOOD    CHAPTER 74: PRINCESS PEYTON HAS JUST FAINTED!

    Tanya's POV. Once we arrive to the doctor's house, I immediately get started on the garden, rolling up my sleeves and putting on gloves I found in one of the sheds. Although I asked Marco to accompany me, I don't wish to burden him, telling him he can relax on one of the garden chairs. With the sun high in the sky, I can get on my hands and knees by the soil. One by one, with meticulous effort, I pull out the weeds that taint the garden grounds. I dump each one I extract into a wheelbarrow. And then once I've filled up the wheelbarrow, with great exertion I roll it over to the garden bin to empty it. I maintain this systematic routine, pulling out the weeds, dumping them into the bin, and then starting all over again, going in rows and horizontally making my way across the large expanse of garden space. I'm of course mainly focused on weeding, but every now and then I spare a glance at Marco. He sits quietly, but his leg bounces subtly, almost as if he's impatiently waiting for som

  • BETRAYED BY BLOOD    CHAPTER 73: HE MARRIES ME BECAUSE HE WANTS

    Tanya's POV. I show Marco the page in the notebook where I have seen the pattern of the flower that appeared on the back of the princess's neck. Our eyes both scan the page to read that the poison that the perfume cures is colorless and tasteless. It fails to leave behind any traces of poisoning which explains why Peyton displays no symptoms. The page also explains that if a large enough dose is introduced into the body suddenly, and if the inflicted individual does not receive timely treatment, then the person will die within hours after exposure. And as stated before, no symptoms will reveal themselves. It will look like a natural death. Except for a flower pattern that will appear on the back of the neck of the deceased. However, at the bottom of the page, a small asterisk displays an additional note, stating that if the person poisoned gets the right treatment in time, or the dose of the injected poison is relatively light, then the person can still live a half-life from half a
