I Cheated Back On My Mate: Now I'm In Serious Trouble! CHAPTER 10
The silence between us was thick, almost unbearable, broken only by the faint hum of the luxury suite’s lights. Damian’s thumb was still brushing my lower lip, a lazy, possessive stroke that sent currents of heat spiraling through me. I should have pulled away. I should have reminded myself who he was—danger incarnate, the Lycan chairman who could crush entire packs with a single order.Instead, I found myself trembling, not from fear, but from the way his dark eyes pinned me, like he already owned me.“Your father’s fate isn’t in your hands anymore,” he said, voice deep, husky, threaded with that unshakable authority that bent wolves and Lycans alike. “It’s in mine.”My breath caught. I hated him for being right. The Gammas hadn’t just dragged my father away—they’d made a statement. And in our world, statements like that ended in blood.But instead of dread, my chest filled with another dangerous emotion. Desire.What is wrong with me? He’s the reason I can’t think straight. He’s the

The chamber was chaos wrapped in stone.Sanctum soldiers spilled through the breach like smoke given form, their black cloaks snapping, their bone-white masks glinting in the firelight. Weapons gleamed, halberds of silver alloy etched with glyphs, blades hissing with runes that sparked when they caught the air.They didn’t hesitate. They didn’t threaten. They came for me.My pulse stuttered, my throat tightening. Every masked face seemed to look directly into mine, hollow eyeholes cutting through the chaos. For one split second, I felt like prey cornered by hunters who’d been waiting their whole lives for this kill.Damian stepped forward, unflinching, his suit jacket thrown back, blood still seeping from his palm where the aconite dart had pierced him. He didn’t care. He moved like a predator claiming the floor, his voice cutting through the din.“You breach my chamber,” he said, low and lethal. “Then you die in it.”The Sanctum commander raised a hand. At once, three soldiers surged

The chamber still hummed with the echo of the Oath. Not sound—something deeper. It lived in the stone, in the marrow of my bones, in the hollow of my chest where my next breath caught and stumbled.My hand burned where Damian’s palm had closed over mine. I could still feel the scorch of his ring pressing into the sigil, the way the glyph had flared and then folded, twisting itself into something darker, permanent.“You didn’t,” I whispered, though I already knew he had. My voice cracked in the silence between shouts. “Tell me you didn’t just—”“I bound you.” His words were a blade, sharp and unflinching. His storm-dark gaze never wavered, not even with Councillors spitting outrage from their high seats. “No Council. No Sanctum. No one owns you but me.”For a heartbeat, I couldn’t breathe. My pulse skittered like a trapped animal. Bound. Not just protected. Not just claimed. Bound.The weight of it crushed me harder than any Council decree.“You can’t,” I said, my voice breaking, part

The second dart gleamed like moonlit venom, arrowing straight for my chest.Instinct ripped a cry from my throat, but Damian was already moving. He twisted, faster than breath, and his hand slammed against my sternum, shoving me back so hard I staggered into the marble post.The dart sliced the air where I’d been, missed me by inches, and embedded itself in the Council floor with a sharp crack. Gasps tore the chamber.A whisper of smoke rose from the dart’s tip, acrid and strange. I clutched the post to keep from crumpling, my pulse slamming so loud it drowned the world. Damian’s palm was still spread across my chest, the heat of his touch burning through my dress like a brand, and his head lifted slow, deliberate, like a predator turning on prey.“Enough.”The word rumbled so low the walls themselves seemed to absorb it. Wolves in the gallery recoiled. Councillors stiffened. Even the Sanctum agent in the black cloak froze mid-motion, gloved hand hovering by their belt.Damian’s grip

“The prisoner has been transferred,” Kieran the head Councillor said, voice smooth as oiled steel. “His hearing will follow the matter of his daughter, whose status now supersedes all other concerns.”I stared at him. “Supersedes...”“The Sanctum believes the subject displays signatures consistent with arcane inheritance,” another Councillor cut in, eyes like fish. “We will be testing custody now.”“Testing...” I laughed, a raw, shocked sound. “You mean branding me like cattle and dragging me into a cellar.”The head Councillor’s smile didn’t reach his eyes. “Containment is not punishment, Miss Valery. It is safety.”“For you,” Damian said.They finally looked at him, really looked, some with flinches they didn’t hide well. “Chairman Storm,” the head Councillor said, false-polished. “You grace us.”“I didn’t come for ceremony,” Damian said. He walked forward until he stood a long step in front of me, blocking half the room’s view of my face. “You lit a Sanctum tag in a civilian zone a

I jerked my chin from his grip, heat and fury radiating from my chest. “Give me my phone, Damian.”“No.”The single word was a wall I slammed into. Wolves were everywhere.Somewhere behind them, my mother cried my name, but the sound drowned beneath boots and the snap of orders as a black-column of Gammas marched up the drive in lockstep.A silver-bannered standard rose above them. The Council’s crest.My blood went cold.“Aria Valery!” the lead Gamma barked in a high voice. “By order of the Lycan Council, you’re to be taken into custody under Article Forty-Seven, Bloodline Containment.”Damian didn’t turn his head, but power rolled off him in a silent shockwave. “You brought a containment writ into my city without notice.” Not a question. An accusation.The Gamma captain shifted his weight. “Chairman Storm. The order is valid and immediate. Step aside.”He didn’t move. “Show me the writ.”The captain hesitated, then lifted a sealed scroll. Damian’s hand rose, and the parchment slid t
