CHAPTER 9

📍 Shannon 📍

As soon as Evan left the room, the door burst open again. My heart leaped—I thought he had returned. But when I looked up, I saw a group of women, their faces lit with warm smiles. They looked to be in their mid-thirties, unfamiliar yet oddly welcoming.

I tried to sit up, but they rushed to my side, gently helping me.

“You don’t need to stress yourself when you have us here,” one of them said, smiling kindly.

The others nodded, their eyes filled with excitement.

I scrambled in my thoughts, struggling hard to recognize their faces, but I couldn't. I bet I hadn't seen them since I was brought into this hellhole of a palace.

Just then, one of the women said something which left me reeling in thoughts.

“The King ordered us to bring you to the poolroom,” she said, her voice laced with enthusiasm. “He has a surprise for you.”

My brows furrowed, confusion seeping in.

A surprise? From Evan? That didn’t make any sense. He hated me—despised me. Why would he prep

  • Becoming The Wolf King's Fated Mate By Chance    The Note

    Chapter 52ShannonI froze.Right there, on the door—just above the handle—was a note.My heart began to beat fast, so fast it almost jumped out of my ribcage. I stared at the paper, afraid to even move closer. The firelight flickered across the room, making the shadow of the note dance against the wooden door.It wasn’t small or hidden. Whoever left it wanted me to see it.I swallowed hard and took a step closer. My hands were shaking so badly that I could hardly lift them, but I reached out anyway. The paper was rough under my fingers. My eyes moved over the words, and my whole body went cold.‘Watch your back, Shannon. I’ll definitely come back for you and your miserable child.’I read it once. Then twice. Then again, just to be sure my eyes weren’t lying to me.But they weren’t.It was real.I pressed a hand to my mouth, feeling my breath catch in my throat.For a moment, I just stood there, staring at nothing.The silence in the room felt too heavy, too loud. Even the fire crackl

  • Becoming The Wolf King's Fated Mate By Chance    Strange

    Chapter 51Shannon Why?Maybe he wanted to talk about the baby. Maybe he wanted to show everyone that I was under his protection. Or maybe…No. I told myself again. I shouldn't imagine things that aren’t there. He doesn’t care about you.He only cares about what’s his.I stood slowly and walked to the bed. My fingers brushed the fabric of the dress—it was soft like silk, cool under my skin. I lifted it and held it against myself. It was beautiful, too beautiful. The kind of dress a queen would wear.I slipped it on carefully. The fabric fit perfectly, hugging my waist, flowing down like silver water. The neckline was gentle, and the sleeves were long, lined with tiny crystals. It made me feel strange, almost like I was someone else.When I looked into the mirror, I barely recognized the woman staring back. Her eyes looked softer, her face calmer, even though her heart was still trembling.I brushed my hair quickly, letting it fall over my shoulders. It had grown longer lately, curlin

    Chapter 50Shannon I looked at her for a long time. “My safety,” I repeated quietly.“Yes, Luna.”I nodded and forced a small smile. “Thank you, Rhea.”She smiled again, relieved, then began tidying the room while I ate.As I finished the soup, my eyes wandered around the chamber. It was huge—stone walls covered in dark velvet curtains, a large bed draped with silver sheets, and a burning fireplace that filled the space with soft orange light.It didn’t feel like a prison, but it didn’t feel free either.When I was done eating, Rhea came closer. “If you’re ready, Luna, I’ll prepare your bath.”I nodded. “All right.”She disappeared into the adjoining room, and soon I heard the sound of water running. The soft smell of lavender filled the air.While she worked, I sat by the fire, staring into the flames. My mind wouldn’t stop turning.Evan’s face came back to me again and again. The anger. The protectiveness. The way his voice had softened, just for a second, when he asked if I was hu

    Chapter 49Shannon Owen obeyed, though his shoulders tensed. “Yes, Alpha,” he said quietly.Evan’s eyes narrowed. “I appreciate what you did,” he said after a pause. “But don’t ever touch her again. Do you understand?”Owen blinked, confused. “I was only trying to protect her.”“I know,” Evan said, his tone icy, “but I decide who protects her. Not you.”The words hit hard. Owen bowed his head, his jaw tight. “Yes, Alpha.”Then Evan turned to me. His gaze softened for just a heartbeat, and my breath caught. “Are you hurt?” he asked.I shook my head quickly. “No… I’m fine.”His eyes searched mine, as if trying to see if I was telling the truth. Then he gave a small nod. “Good. You’re coming with me.”He turned to leave, but I hesitated. I looked at Owen. His eyes met mine, filled with worry.“Thank you,” I whispered softly.He gave me a small, sad smile. “Just stay safe, Shannon.”Evan stopped at the door and glanced back at him. “Owen,” he said, his voice like steel, “this is your fin

  • Becoming The Wolf King's Fated Mate By Chance    The Rescue

    Chapter 48Shannon“Not any chance, bitch!”The voice boomed through the dungeon like thunder. My heart jumped. I turned sharply toward the sound, and there—standing in the doorway—was Owen.His face was hard, his eyes blazing like fire. He looked nothing like the calm man who had left earlier. His chest was rising and falling fast, and his hands were clenched tightly by his sides.Lisa froze for a second, her claws still stretched out, her blue eyes glowing with hatred. Then she slowly turned her head toward him and smiled—a cruel, dangerous smile.“Well, well,” she hissed, straightening up. “If it isn’t the brave little hero again.”“Stay away from her, Lisa,” Owen growled, stepping closer. “Don’t you dare touch her.”Lisa laughed, but it wasn’t a happy laugh. It was sharp and cold, like broken glass. “Or what? You’ll stop me?” she mocked. “You think you can protect her from me?”Owen took another step forward, his fists tightening. “Try me.”I sat there frozen, my back pressed agai

    Chapter 47Shannon “What?” I queried, turning towards him with my mouth wide open. “Owen, are you sure about this?”“Wait here while I go get the evidence.” He said and stormed out at once, his footsteps echoing off as he left.Barely some minutes later, the door opened again, and he strode right to where I was, his breath ragged.The dimly lit bulb hanging down the center of the room shone directly on his face, reflecting his trembling yet determined features.He reached into his pocket and pulled out a small sized camera. He crouched down to my level, his clothes drenched with his sweat as he shoved the camera in front of me.“There you go.” He muttered and clicked a button, automatically turning on the camera. As soon as the camera came on, the first image that flashed was that of Lisa. My hands flew to my mouth, my eyes reeling with shock as I watched everything. “This is unbelievable!” I muttered under my breath, tears already streaming down my eyes. “I can't believe Lisa can
