Chap-3*Her First Night With My Mate*

“I would like to talk to her,” she repeated her wish to speak to me and it was finally granted when my mother and aunt left the room for the two of us only.

I hadn’t spared her from my glare. I was breathing heavily and fixating my glance on her face.

“You cunning little shit.” I got out of the bed and stood at a distance from her. I don’t know what else she can do; I didn’t want to take any risk.

“Why? Is it that horrible to be in my body?” she shrugged her shoulders a little when letting out a scoff.

“You stole my life,” I retorted, helping her understand why it was so horrible? But the look on her face changed to smug. How can someone be so vile?

“I am enjoying your body. This is the first time in my life that I have had everything I could ever dream of.” the little smirk on her lips made me feel disgusted. It was sad that I hated the smirk on my own face.

“You wanted to punish me. You did it by ruining my day, now ple---ase give me back my body.” I was still whimpering between the words. She had my body, so I couldn’t upset her.

She knew no limits when it came to hurting others.

“Punish you? It is not punishment. I have done nothing yet. It is only the beginning for you. You will get to see what it feels like to be a villain. In the meantime, I will live the life I deserve, I will have a mate, who loves me. I will get to share a bed with him.” as she explained what she had for me next, my jaw met the floor.

“You will not do that,” I warned her in a shaky tone.

“I can finally do whatever I want in my life. What makes you think I will drop this opportunity?” there was a little scoff in her tone when calling my life hers.

“My mate will instantly figure out something is wrong,” I fooled myself with that thought. How is he going to do that if I didn’t even have a wolf? Our wolves never got to connect, so the chances could be slim.

“You can try all you want. Go ahead and even ask him to ask me any questions, any private questions, and then what I will do to your body will be on you,” her tone changed as she groaned at me.

“Where does it stop? Why can’t you just get over it and move on?” I asked, with tears of helplessness dominating the mist of anger in my eyes.

“Get over it? Is it that easy? I wanted what you have, but get over it is easy for you to say.” she had kept her spine straight to copy me this whole time.

“It’s not that hard to turn your life around. Just be good and eve---,” I thought I would be able to convince her somehow, but the smirk across her lips was a sign that she hadn’t even told me the next part of her plan yet.

“That’s why you are in my body right now. You claim it’s so easy to mend my life. Then why don’t you do it?” she didn’t break the eye contact when asking me if I will be able to make things right in her life?

“What?” Her statement shook me up. What kind of game was this?

“Let’s do this. The day you get me everything best as you have, I will give you your life and your body back.” She stepped back to bring her hand forward for a friendly handshake.

“You are despicable!” I grunted and didn’t accept her hand. No way she was going to make me run errands for her, no way it was my responsibility to correct her wrongdoings.

“You have limited time. If you couldn’t make things right for me, you will forever be stuck in this body of mine. So are you ready, Arlene?” there was a smirk on her lips, but a shine of tears in her eyes.

It baffled me how can someone be so confident yet so shaken up?

"It is simple, you make my life better. You make me a hero and I will not make you a villain. But if you failed to make me look good, I will make sure Serena too looks bad. Daxon will find me in Uncle Charles's bed," the way she said it, my heart stopped beating.

"Uncle Charles? he is like a father to us," I was not only met with shock but disgust too. I knew she had eyes on him, but I didn't know she will use my body to have fun with him.

"Except he is not. So, make me a hero and I won't make you a villain," she shrugged her shoulders carelessly. 

She did not leave me with another option, so I had to make the best out of the time I was given.

“Fine, anything to have my body and my life back as it was when you switched her souls,” I agreed with her out of desperation. I didn’t have many options but to get my body back somehow.

She left the room soon after she had made a deal with me. At least she gave me hope that I might be able to recover my life and body if I somehow fix her ruined life.

I didn’t attend the ceremony dinner because a; I wasn’t invited and b; I couldn’t sit there and watch her live my life.

It was then my mind reminded me about what was going to happen tonight.

“Daxon is going to mark me, take my virginity and I wouldn’t even feel it.” my eyes filled with tears once I took too long realizing that part.

I have caught her in my mate’s bed not a day ago and now she is back in his bed again. I got out of my bed to check up on the two.

Walking through the hallway wasn’t easy that night. The eyes on me were so skeptical of my every move. It wasn’t even the member of the Royal family staring at me. These were the service boys, maids, and guards rolling their eyes at me.

“Arlene!”

I heard a fainted call but ignored it. It just didn’t hit my mind and kept pacing in the direction of my room to see what she was doing with my mate?

“Arlene!”

Somebody was shouting from behind me and I was so ignorant of the reality that I didn’t even realize they were calling my name.

“Arlene!” it wasn’t until somebody grabbed my arm and turned me around by force that I acknowledged I was Arlene now.

“Where are you going?” It was my mother. The anger she had in her eyes whenever she spoke to Arlene was a sign of how many people she had angered.

“Umm, I was - -,” how do I tell her I’m not the evil one anymore?

“I know where you are headed to. You are not ruining her night,” mom filled my wrist in her grasp and dragged me behind her without listening to what I had to say.

“Mom! Just hear me out once.” It hurt how much force she was applying to my wrist.

“No! you will not say a word. Let your sister complete the mating ceremony by losing her virginity to her mate.” hearing it from her was like a stab to my chest.

“Now get back to bed. You have school to attend in the morning.” Once she mentioned what was waiting for me next, I felt my heart crumbling inside my chest.

Soon she left me in my room once again and locked the door from the outside.

“He has no idea who he is doing tonight.” Streams of tears ran down my eyes, but I wasn’t given any chance to stop all that nonsense.
