BRIDE FOR RENT IS MY FATED MATE. Chapter 119—Smiles, Threats, and Truths.
THIRD PERSON POVRebecca did not move immediately.Her body had gone still the moment she saw Seraphina standing there, poised, elegant, and entirely too comfortable in a moment that did not belong to her. The faint smile on Seraphina’s lips was not one of concern, nor even curiosity—it was the kind of smile that watched, that measured, that waited.Rebecca exhaled slowly, forcing her voice into calmness.“What do you want, Seraphina?” she asked, her tone controlled but edged with irritation. “I am having an important discussion.”Seraphina placed a hand lightly over her chest, her expression shifting into something almost apologetic.“Oh, I am terribly sorry if I intruded,” she said, her voice smooth and laced with false innocence. “From where I stood, it seemed less like a discussion and more like a… rather heated exchange. I thought perhaps I should step in before the fire grew out of control.”Rebecca’s jaw tightened slightly.“There is no fire,” she replied. “We were just talking

Third Person POVThe late afternoon sun had begun its slow descent, casting long golden streaks across the estate grounds. The air was calm, almost deceptively peaceful, as if the land itself was unaware of the storm quietly gathering beneath its surface.Rebecca and Rowan walked side by side along the stone pathway that curved through the gardens. Their earlier conversation had softened something between them, leaving behind a fragile sense of ease that Rebecca had not felt since the festival began.She laughed lightly at something Rowan had just said, shaking her head.“I still don’t believe you’ve never had anyone,” she teased. “Not even one woman who made you consider slowing down and actually living your life outside of duty.”Rowan gave a small, amused exhale.“It’s not as dramatic as you’re making it sound,” he replied. “Some of us simply have different priorities. And some women are not willing to compromise.”Rebecca tilted her head, studying him.“Or you’re just very good at
BRIDE FOR RENT IS MY FATED MATE. Chapter 117—Beneath Watchful Eyes
THIRD PERSON POVThe afternoon sun stretched long across the stone corridors of the estate, spilling warmth into spaces that still felt emotionally cold. Rebecca had not left her room since Rowan’s earlier visit, though the tray of food he had brought now sat half-empty on the table—proof that, at the very least, she had tried.A soft knock sounded again.This time, it wasn't hesitant or uncertain.But steady.“My lady,” Rowan’s voice came from the other side. “May I come in?”Rebecca paused where she sat, her fingers resting lightly on the edge of the table.“Come in,” she said.The door opened, and Rowan stepped inside, closing it gently behind him.This time, his presence carried something different.It was less formal and more intentional.He studied her for a moment, noting the slight improvement in her demeanor, the faint color that had returned to her face.“I see you ate something,” he said.Rebecca gave a small, almost shy smile.“Only because you insisted.”Rowan nodded slig
BRIDE FOR RENT IS MY FATED MATE. Chapter 116—Behind Closed Doors
THIRD PERSON POVThe estate had settled into a quieter rhythm by midday, the earlier bustle of Donald’s departure giving way to a more controlled, watchful calm. Servants moved with careful precision, guards stood at their posts with heightened awareness, and beneath it all lingered an unspoken tension that none dared to voice aloud.Rebecca had not stepped out of her room since Donald left.The first knock came gently.“My lady,” one of the maids called softly from the other side of the door. “Breakfast is ready. Would you like it served in the dining hall or brought up here?”There was a brief pause before Rebecca replied in a calm but distant voice. “I’m not hungry.”The maid hesitated. “My lady, perhaps just a little—”“I said I’m not hungry,” Rebecca repeated, her tone still polite but firmer now.The maid exchanged a glance with the others standing nearby before bowing slightly toward the closed door.“As you wish, my lady.” And they left quietly.Downstairs, the dining hall was

THIRD PERSON POVMorning came very quickly.The night before still lingered in the air like a whisper that refused to fade, heavy with unspoken truths and carefully buried tension. The estate, which had once pulsed with music and laughter, now felt quieter—calmer on the surface, yet underneath, something restless stirred.Donald stood by the tall windows of their chamber, already dressed, his posture straight, his expression thoughtful as he stared out at the vast lands of the Black Moon Territory. The early light spilled across his face, highlighting the calm authority he carried so effortlessly.Behind him, Rebecca stirred.She blinked awake slowly, her mind taking a moment to catch up with reality.Then, without warning, everything rushed back.From Damon to her aunt.The tension.Her heart tightened instantly.“Donald?” she called softly, sitting up.He turned immediately, his expression softening the moment his eyes met hers.“You’re awake.”Rebecca nodded, pushing the covers asi
BRIDE FOR RENT IS MY FATED MATE. Chapter 114— The Cost of Silence
Third Person POVFor a long second after Damon’s words fell into the night air, everything seemed to still.The torches flickered.The wind shifted faintly.But Donald—Donald did not react the way anyone would expect.Instead, he stared at Damon… and then, suddenly, he laughed.Not a small, uncertain laugh.But a deep, full one that rolled out of him with surprising ease, as though he had just been told something mildly amusing rather than something deeply provocative.Damon blinked.That was not the reaction he had anticipated.“You were the one who gave her to me?” Donald repeated, amusement still laced in his tone. “Is that how you’ve chosen to introduce yourself?”Damon tilted his head slightly, studying him.“I thought honesty would be the best approach,” he said smoothly.Donald’s lips curved into a faint smile.“Honesty is refreshing,” he admitted. “Though I must say, I expected something more… dramatic.”Damon narrowed his eyes just slightly.“You don’t seem surprised.”Donal
