Game of hearts: The Ruthless Alpha and his warrior bride chapter 143
EdgarI didn’t bother hiding my expression as I stepped out into the corridor. Let them see the storm in my eyes. Let them feel the shift in the air and the pressure crawling along the stone walls. The guards straightened instinctively, some bowing, some stepping back like they could sense the crackle building under my skin.Good.Fear worked better than diplomacy.I moved through the hallway with long strides, my cloak sweeping behind me like a shadow with purpose. Every servant I passed stiffened, eyes dropping, breaths hitching. Rumors already traveled faster than I could walk. Of course they did. The council leaked information like a slit throat.At the staircase landing, I paused.Celeste’s scent still lingered faintly. Soft. Warm. The kind of scent meant to calm, but instead it splintered something inside me. She shouldn’t be handling the council alone. She shouldn’t be dealing with their pettiness and power games while still managing an entire kingdom teetering on the edge of p

Edgar The door clicked shut behind Celeste, and for a second, I just stood there staring at the empty space she left behind.lNot proud of it.Not admitting anything.But the room felt wrong the moment she walked out.Her warmth was still in the air—her scent, her energy, that constant hum she carried like a storm beneath her skin. And without her, everything settled into this… heavy stillness.I scrubbed a hand across my jaw and exhaled slowly.“Perfect,” I muttered to myself. “Let the council drag her out before sunrise, why don’t they.”My irritation crawled under my skin like ants. Not because she was going—she had duties, and I wasn’t delusional enough to think she could skip them. But the council twisting it into something toxic? That was the part that made my blood run hot.Manipulating her?Really?If anything, she manipulated me without even trying.I moved toward the window, needing the cold air. Below, guards scrambled in neat little lines, advisors whispered like pests hud

Celeste The door shut behind them, and the room fell quiet again, too quiet.Edgar’s fingers brushed my hip as if nothing had happened, as if Celia hadn’t just barged in mid-embrace and Gloria hadn’t been seconds away from snarling.“Are you truly going?” he asked, voice low, thumb tracing a line that made my breath stutter. “The council can wait.”“No, they can’t,” I said, prying his hand off me even though I didn’t really want to. “And neither can Gloria’s attitude.”He shrugged, unbothered. “She dislikes me. I return the sentiment.”“You dislike everyone,” I reminded him, hopping off the bed and searching for my robe.“Not you,” he said too easily.I ignored the flutter in my chest and tied the robe tighter than necessary.“Edgar, this is serious. Gloria looked like she wanted to smash something.”He leaned back on his elbows, watching me move around the room like he was storing every detail. “She’s jealous. She wants your attention.”“Maybe,” I sighed, brushing my hair back. “But

Celeste “Hey you are thinking again.” Edgar's voice echoed in my ear.I turned slightly.and took him in.His eyes had a lightness to them that I had become used to.I sighed. “Wondering why I still let you touch me despite my feelings towards you.”“Your feelings…” he sighed. “ We are still on this?” Silence…I don't have anything to say I glanced out the window and the rays of the moon light fell on my face.I felt Edgar's hand wrap around my waist possessively.“You love me, Celeste. I know you do. I wish you'd just admit it to yourself once and for all.” His voice was soft as his lips found the crock of my neckI didn't answer, didn't want to think about how right or wrong he was about my feelings towards himAfter all, it could very well be the mate bond.“We need to stop lying to ourselves.” My wolf said but I ignored her.“Stop saying nonsense, Edgar. I enjoy my time with you, and I've grown a little fonder of you, but that is all.”“I'm sure you'll be saying this even after

Celeste Edgar raised a brow at me as if to ask if I thought he was stupid or something.“Well, I'm going to bed. I have had a long day.” I smiled. His eyes narrowed further, but I pretended not to notice. I took off my cloak, hung it and then began to slowly unravel my dress.I heard him walking towards me, his strides deliberate and laced with warning.He leaned against my ear, and whispered.“If I find out that you've let another man touch you, I'll kill him in front of you then feed to the wild wolves.”My breath hitched. His words should have disgusted me instead it aroused me to a point where I could hardly breathe.“Edgar.” I whispered.I took in a breath as his hands wrapped around my neck.“You smell good “ he whispered, making me whimper.“Take your clothes off.”“No.” I said but the words came out like a plea, a prayer even.I tried to resist as always, but it was almost a waste of my time because I could never resist him as much as I wanted, and I hated myself for it.“No

Celeste “It doesn't matter what you want, Gethro. I am the one helping you. You should be grateful.” I spat, my eyes glowing with anger. “This is not the agreement, Celeste.” “It is. You will wait for my command or I will destroy your plans.” He suddenly burst out laughing as if I had just said the funniest joke he'd heard in his life. “You may be the queen, Céleste, but you are not my queen, not yet at least.” I gave him a once over, my eyes narrowed. It would be easy to simply slit his throat and render the entire operation null and void, but it wouldn't be in my best interest. I had to destroy Edgar before it was too late for me to ever be free. “You'll follow my orders or I'll make sure you all walk into your death.” The words flew out of my mouth before I could stop it. But as soon as they did, I found that I didn't regret it. It was high time he knew who was boss around here Gethro smiled, baring his slightly protruding canine “I see why the bastard wanted you, yo
