Melissa.

I still couldn’t believe that five years had passed.

Five years.

The number itself felt unreal when I allowed myself to truly think about it. Time had slipped by so quietly, so effortlessly, that sometimes it felt as though only yesterday I had woken up in this unfamiliar place, confused and uncertain about everything around me.

And yet… so much had changed.

I had changed.

In ways I never could have imagined.

Life here had reshaped me completely. Not just my surroundings, but my streng

  • MATED TO THREE, DESPISED BY ALL.    93. TENSION.

    MELISSA.I really didn’t know what to say to Davian.My mind was a mess, memories, emotions, questions—all crashing into each other at once. A part of me wanted to ask him everything. Another part wanted to pretend none of this was happening.But I couldn’t just stand there in silence either. So I said the first thing that came to my mind.“Do you two know each other?” I asked, my gaze shifting between them, though my question was directed more toward Louis.Louis pushed himself off the wall, his posture straightening as his hands slipped casually into his pockets.“Yes, we do,” he replied.There was something in his tone—calm, but measured.“Of course, Melissa,” Davian added almost immediately, a sheepish smile spreading across his face as he looked at me. “We’re close buddies.”Close buddies?I blinked, trying to process that piece of information, but before I could say anything, his expression changed.The smile faded.Replaced by something more serious.More searching.“What exact

  • MATED TO THREE, DESPISED BY ALL.    92. MISS ME?

    Melissa.I stormed into the kitchen, letting the cool air hit my flushed face, Louis trailing quietly behind me. My legs were still buzzing from the chaos outside, from the tangle with Cain, Cypril, and the unrelenting tension that had clawed at me all day. I didn’t care about anything right now—I just needed water.I grabbed the nearest bottle, twisting the cap off and tilting it back. The icy liquid poured down my throat, filling me with a sudden rush of relief. I gulped it all in one go, not even bothering to pause for breath, and when the last drop disappeared, I let out a long, satisfied sigh.“Ooopsss, that’s refreshing,” I said finally, lowering the bottle and flashing Louis a mischievous smile. My teeth gleamed in the dim kitchen light, perfect and white, and for a moment I felt a flicker of lightness creep into my exhausted mood.“Come on, Melissa, stop smiling at me that way,” Louis said, leaning lazily against the counter. His shirt clung to his shoulders and chest in all

  • MATED TO THREE, DESPISED BY ALL.    91. SMART.

    CHAPTER 91: SMART.Melissa.I rolled my eyes the moment Amelia came into full view.Of course. The drama queen had arrived. The air itself seemed to shift, as though her presence alone could pull tension from every corner and twist it into something messy, something unavoidable. I knew, immediately, that things were about to take a drastic turn.Cain, who had been holding me close moments before, instantly released his grip on my waist. The sudden absence of his warmth left a small, hollow ache behind, and I pulled away from him just as quickly, instinctively trying to hide the way my body had betrayed me, hardened nipples pressing against the fabric, unwanted evidence of sensation I didn’t want anyone to see.Hell with it.Hell with the way my body kept reacting to their touch, no matter how much I tried to control it. I couldn’t help the memory that flared unbidden, that reminded me of the earth-shattering climax Cypril had given me five years ago. The memory made my chest tighten a

    Melissa.“And what makes you think we would do that?”The voices came at the same time, cold, firm and unyielding. I didn’t need to turn immediately to know who they belonged to.But I did anyway, slowly and deliberately.Cain and Caleb stood a few steps behind Cypril, their presence filling the space like a storm that had been waiting for the right moment to strike.Of course.They couldn’t stay away.A scoff slipped from my lips as I shifted my attention fully to them.“Tell me,” I said, my voice calm but edged with steel, “what exactly is stopping you from doing so… Mr. Stone?”The title landed just as sharply as before and just like Cypril they reacted…only slightly, as there was a flicker in their expressions—a brief pause.Something unspoken passed between them and then it was gone, masked and controlled.As if it never happened.Cain’s gaze hardened, his jaw tightening as he stepped forward just enough to close the distance between us.“Are you that eager?” he asked instead, hi

  • MATED TO THREE, DESPISED BY ALL.    89. RESPONSE.

    Melissa. I woke up slowly, my body stretching lazily against the softness of the bed.A quiet breath slipped past my lips as I rolled slightly onto my back, staring up at the ceiling for a brief moment, letting the calmness of the morning settle over me.It had been… exhausting.Yesterday alone felt like it had drained every ounce of energy from me.From accompanying Louis around the hall, greeting guests, maintaining composure, answering questions, to dealing with Amelia’s perfectly crafted drama…I closed my eyes briefly.A faint scoff almost escaped me, of course she would choose a public setting, of course she would perform.Everything about it had been predictable.And yet… still tiring.I pushed the thoughts away and sat up slowly, stretching my arms above my head. My muscles protested slightly, reminding me just how long the day had been.“Just one quiet morning…” I murmured to myself.That was all I wanted, nothing complicated, nothing dramatic…just peace.I slipped out of bed

  • MATED TO THREE, DESPISED BY ALL.    88. Collect it.

    AmeliaI was still leaning against them when we moved away from the entrance, their hands steadying me as if I might collapse at any moment.If only they knew.The only thing threatening to collapse was the mask I was struggling to keep in place. Inside me, something was boiling, raging and burning so fiercely I could almost feel it clawing its way up my throat.How did it turn up this way?The worst part of it was that stood there…calm, composed and untouched.It infuriated me.That wasn’t how this was supposed to go.I had expected her to lose control, to react, to embarrass herself in front of everyone, just like she always did back then.To remind them all of the weak, pathetic girl she used to be but she didn’t, she didn’t even look affected, she stood there like she was above us.Above me.My fingers curled tightly at my sides as they helped me walk.What I wanted…What I truly wanted…Was to run back there….Grab her….Slap her hard across the face and wipe that calm, superior look

  • MATED TO THREE, DESPISED BY ALL.    25. SACRIFICE.

    Melissa. The window was finally pulled open with a sharp, splintering crack, the sound slicing through the thick silence of the room. I heard it clearly, felt it, even, but I kept my eyes shut, lashes pressed tightly together as if that alone could make whatever was happening disappear.Instinct s

    Cypril.An uneasy feeling coiled tightly within my chest, heavy and persistent, and no matter how hard I tried to ignore it, it refused to fade. I could tell something was wrong, terribly wrong, but I couldn’t place my finger on it. Was it because Amelia would no longer be the one standing beside u

    CYPRIL.I pushed the door open without hesitation, the hinges creaking softly as the room came into view. The first thing I saw was Melissa.She lay weakly on the bed, her body unnaturally still, chains wrapped tightly around her wrists and fastened to the bedframe. Her face looked pale, almost lif

    Cypril.I spun toward the door and stepped into the corridor, my voice sharp and commanding. To the first guard, I said without hesitation, “Seal the entrance.” My gaze shifted immediately to the other. “Call my brothers. Now.”Neither of them dared to question me. They moved at once, boots retreat
