Lillian’s POV

I tried to act strong in front of Celeste, in front of Alanna and Aiden, in front of the guards who watched my door and the staff who served my meals. I tried to project confidence and calm, to show that I wasn’t intimidated by anonymous threats or poisoning attempts or shadows in hallways.

But the truth was, I was scared. Terrified, actually.

Someone wanted me dead badly enough to kill an innocent woman in the attempt. Someone had resources and access and determination, and despi

  • Dear Ex Mate, You're Mine to Ruin   Chapter 199

    Cassidy’s POV"You let her escape!"I screamed at the top of my lungs, my voice ringing through the cold stone hallway of the high fortress like a sharp blade. My whole body was shaking with uncontrollable, burning rage.I marched straight up to the three heavy guards standing before me, raising my hand and striking the first guard across his ugly face with all the strength in my body.SLAP!"You stupid, useless fools!" I growled right into his face, my dark eyes flashing with pure hatred. "How hard is it to watch a single, tied-up girl inside a locked room?! I gave you one simple job! One job! And you failed me completely!"I turned around and kicked the second guard squarely in the chest, making him stumble back against the cold wall. "You are completely incapable of getting anything done! You are worthless!"I turned my body around and sprinted into the dark, seamless metal room where Lillian had been kept as a prisoner. I ran straight to the center of the iron floor, my eyes searc

  • Dear Ex Mate, You're Mine to Ruin   Chapter 198

    Lillian’s POVI blinked, staring at Aiden’s side profile in the dim light of the car dashboard."What uncle?" I asked, my voice flat and completely blank.I pulled my hands back into my lap, folding my arms across my chest as I glared at him. A sharp wave of annoyance flared up inside me despite how grateful I was to him for saving my life."You are calling him your uncle, Aiden, but you have never told me anything about your past," I called him out, my voice raspy and sharp. "You never share anything about yourself with anyone in the pack. And now that we are sitting in this car, you are dumping heavy questions on me like we are just two chatty friends hanging out on a sunny day. How am I supposed to answer you?"Aiden kept his eyes on the dark road ahead, but I saw his jaw tighten slightly. He took a long, quiet breath, letting out a heavy sigh before he spoke."I am sorry," Aiden said softly, his voice full of genuine regret. "You are completely right. I have kept my past a deep se

  • Dear Ex Mate, You're Mine to Ruin   Chapter 197

    Lillian’s POVI sat on the cold dirt floor of the dark alleyway, holding my torn clothes tightly against my chest. My whole body was shaking with fear, cold, and pure relief.Aiden stepped closer to me, wiping his bloody knuckles on his heavy dark pants. He looked down at my wet, dirty clothes and my messy hair, and a small, soft smile touched his lips despite the scary situation we were in."Phew, Lillian," Aiden said, letting out a short, quiet laugh to cut through the heavy tension. "I am very glad to see you alive, but you really stink right now. You smell like an old sewer."I let out a shaky, wet breath that was half a laugh and half a sob."In all seriousness," Aiden added, his face going serious as he offered me his strong hand, "you did an incredible job. I cannot believe you actually managed to escape from the high fortress all by yourself. You are stronger than anyone gave you credit for."I grabbed his hand, and he gently pulled me up off the hard ground. The moment my fee

  • Dear Ex Mate, You're Mine to Ruin   Chapter 196

    Lillian’s POVI bit my lip so hard I could taste blood in my mouth. I held myself back from crying out loud in pain, refusing to let any sound leave my throat that might bring the guards running back into the metal tomb. My left hand was throbbing violently, bleeding heavily where my fingernail had been completely ripped off.Looking down into the opened hatch, my stomach turned. The terrible smell floating up from the dark hole was completely heinous. It smelled like rotten eggs, old sewage, and dead bodies that had been left in the dark for years.Suddenly, small, fast movements made my skin crawl. Dark rats began to climb out of the hole, scampering all over my legs and my bleeding feet. Their tiny, cold feet and sharp claws scratched against my skin as they squeaked in the darkness. I wanted to scream, but I knew I had to escape right now. If I stayed in this room for another hour, the blood moon would rise, and the dark transfer would end my life forever.I looked down at the flo

    Chapter 195Lillian’s POVPain shot through my fingers with every single pull, but I could not stop. I refused to stop.My fingernails were bleeding heavily now, leaving bright red streaks of fresh blood across the cold iron floor. The hidden hatch in the exact center of the room was disguised so well that nobody walking into the metal tomb would ever notice it. It looked just like another dark plate on the floor, perfectly seamless with the rest of the metal plates. But my hands had found the tiny, raised edge hidden right under the shadow of an ancient wolf drawing.I dug my sore fingers into the microscopic crack, pulling with all the strength left in my body.Suddenly, the heavy sound of metal sliding against metal echoed through the room.CLANG.My heart jumped into my throat. The lock on the invisible entrance was turning. Someone was coming inside right now.I reacted with crazy, desperate speed. I let go of the hatch, threw my body back against the wall, and tucked my bloody h

    Chapter 194Dorian’s POVThe room went completely quiet. Nobody moved. Nobody said a single word.Alanna stood by the bedside with her hand covering her mouth, her eyes wide with shock. Aiden stood near the entrance, watching me with a serious face. They were both completely silent as they watched me drag my heavy feet across the floor. I took one small, painful step forward. My legs felt like giant sacks of heavy sand. My lower back burned with a sharp, terrible fire, but I kept my chin up. I forced my weak knees to stay straight. I was the Alpha of Fangshade, and I refused to look like a helpless man in front of my Beta and my doctor. I was going to walk out of this door, get into my car, and go save my wife.I dragged my feet across the cold floor until I finally reached the heavy wooden door. I let out a long, shaky breath and reached my right hand out to grab the shiny metal door knob.TOUCH.Before my fingers could even turn the knob, a sharp, sudden pressure slammed straight i
