I Woke Up Engaged To An Alpha Chapter Ninety-two: Your Pains Become Mine
SIGRUN“Sh.it. This is all fu.cked up, for real,” Eva breathed, cradling a mug of coffee in her hands.All three of us were seated in different spots in the living room—me on the couch, Eva sprawled in the vintage armchair, and Princess Sigrun perched nervously on the edge of a kitchen stool, clutching a glass of water.“So,” Eva said. “Let me get this straight. The bad guy—Krev—put a magic-blocking dog collar around your neck, drew blood, and then bam... you vanished into thin air and popped back into your bedroom?”“It’s called Moon-Iron,” Princess Sigrun spoke up softly, setting her glass down with a tiny clink. She looked up, her eyes shadowed with guilt. “I read about it in the forbidden vaults of the Windsmoor castle library when I…when I realized I had magic. Centuries ago, during the Mage Purge, the crown used Moon-Iron collars to suppress mages before executing them. It’s designed to trap magic, suffocating a caster's power so they can’t fight back or escape.”I frowned, trac
I Woke Up Engaged To An Alpha Chapter Ninety-one: You Saved Your Own Skin
SIGRUN “I…” Sweatpants-Sigrun began, turning even redder at my accusation. I pointed a finger at her. “Admit it. Admit that you deliberately switched bodies with me, Princess Sigrun.” I ran a hand through my hair and paced. Then I stopped abruptly and stalked across the room so I was standing toe to toe with the impostor princess. “Admit,” I bit out, poking a finger in her chest, “that you chose to run away on the eve of your wedding and-and you swapped our bodies somehow so you wouldn’t have to get married!” Standing this close to her, I was a little startled by the likeness in our features and similarities. It was weird, like staring into my reflection in the mirror. The guilty look on the princess’s face morphed into defensiveness. She leaned into my face and snapped, “Oh, it was much more than just the wedding. Your version makes me sound like a weakling!” “Oh, boo-hoo for you,” I sneered sarcastically. Eva’s jaw dropped once more as she stared at both of us, t
I Woke Up Engaged To An Alpha Chapter Ninety: Method Acting? Really?
SIGRUN "I’m the real Sigrun!" I shouted, my voice cracking under the strain of the absurd situation. God, I hadn’t seen my best friend in months, and I couldn’t even hug her now because the impostor with my face was claiming that I was the impostor. I tightened my white-knuckled grip on the brass candlestick, keeping it pointed squarely at the impostor’s chest. "I lived in this apartment for three years! I know where the floorboards squeak outside the bathroom!" "No, I'm the real Sigrun!" sweatpants-Sigrun shrieked back, her manicured hands waving frantically in the air. Between us, Eva stood completely frozen in the doorway, the smoldering joint held mid-air. She slowly blinked, her eyes darting back and forth between us like she was watching a terrifyingly high-stakes tennis match. "Okay. Okay," Eva whispered, her voice dangerously flat. She closed her eyes, held up a single finger, and took another deep, shuddering drag of the joint. She held the smoke in for a few s
I Woke Up Engaged To An Alpha Chapter Eighty-nine: Two Sigruns
SIGRUN My lungs exploded. I jerked upright with a violent, agonizing heave, like a drowning body breaching the surface after minutes beneath the ice. Air—thick, warm, dusty air—slammed into my chest with the force of a physical blow. I gasped, choking on it, my throat burning as if I had swallowed glass. My hands flew instantly to my neck. I expected wetness. I expected blood. There was no blood. There was no collar. My fingers scrambled frantically over smooth, unbroken skin. My pulse hammered beneath my fingertips like a frightened bird, but the flesh was whole. I tore at my collarbone, breathing in ragged, hysterical hitches, my eyes wide and unseeing as my mind scrambled to process the lack of pain. Varul. The name ripped through my soul like a jagged blade. Where was Varul? Where was the dark blood pooling on the floor? Where was Krev? My body was trembling so violently I could barely sit up. I reached out through the darkness, searching frantically for the bo

VARULThe wolfsbane wasn't just killing me. It was executing my wolf.Inside the dark abyss of my mind, Siren was drowning in liquid fire. The poison coiled around his throat like spiked chains, crushing his chest and tearing his lungs to shredded ribbons. The great Alpha wolf—the terrifying beast that had made entire North bow—was on his knees, thrashing in dark pool after dark pool of his own dying spirit, letting out wet, agony-laced whimpers that ripped through my brain.We were chained in our own skin. Paralyzed. Mutilated from the inside out.And then Krev and his goons laid their filthy hands on her.A white-hot, apocalyptic rage detonated in my chest, so violent it should have shattered every bone in my body. That was my mate. My princess. My breath. My soul. My entire reason for existing on this godforsaken earth. To watch that bastard drag her up by her hair—to hear her sharp, helpless gasp—was a violence ten thousand times worse than the poison eating my internal organs.
I Woke Up Engaged To An Alpha Chapter Eighty-seven: The Edge of the Dagger
SIGRUNI lay paralyzed on the stone, the heavy metal of the choker sinking its icy, unnatural fangs into my very soul. Every pulse of my heart felt like thick lead sludge crawling through my veins. Deep inside, where the burning spark of my magic usually lived—that electric, unyielding current—there was nothing but a void. A black, suffocating emptiness.Krev stood over me, looking down at my helpless form as if I were nothing more than a stray dog waiting to be put down.He stooped down, grabbed a handful of my hair, and hauled me off the stone.A sharp gasp tore from my throat as my scalp burned, my knees buckling uselessly. Krev yanked me upright, pulling my back flush against his chest, and in a single fluid motion, drew a dagger. The silver edge pressed firmly into the skin just above the cold metal band around my neck.It bit deep enough for me to feel the razor sharpness, hovering right over my pulsing carotid artery."Look at him," Krev commanded softly into my ear. "Look at

The distant thunder of hooves was what pulled me out of my thoughts. The sound built gradually, rolling in from somewhere beyond the high stone walls like approaching weather. Rhythmic. Heavy. A lot of it. Conny, who had been fussing with something in the wooden chest behind me, froze. Then she s

Affecting a posture of regret, I bowed briefly. “I'm sorry for running away. I will make sure that doesn't happen again…” I couldn't help but add, “In the foreseeable future…Mother.” The queen narrowed her eyes at me, but she seemed to be satisfied with my reply because she raised her chin and nod

I was out of the bath even before I knew it. Conny and Rita's surprised exclaims of “Yer Highness!” faded into the background. I didn't care about the watery mess I'd made or about the embarrassing state of my undress. I'd missed her so much, so very much. “Mom! Oh my God, Mom!” I cried. She gave
