Tessa

By the time my friends are finished with me, I barely recognize the girl staring back from the mirror.

The coronation gown drapes elegantly over my body, silver and white threads woven together like moonlight itself. It's still surprising how the high Priestess got the perfect size for me.

I stare at my reflection, embracing the new reality. I'm queen, I should get used to this.

"You look beautiful," Freya says softly behind me.

I swallow and force a smile.

"Ready?" Miranda asks.

No. But

  • Mated To The Brutal Alpha   Chapter 142

    Renric I storm out of the room, fury roaring through my veins like wildfire. My chest heaves with every breath, heart slamming against my ribs so violently it feels like it might burst. The image of my boy’s fevered little body keeps reflecting in my mind as I race through the corridors, boots pounding against the stone floor, guards scattering out of my path.Gosh!! When all this is finally over, what I will do to that bitch Bianca for daring to endanger my son's life, she will beg that I kill her instead.My hands tremble with barely contained rage as I descend the stairs into the basement where Kael is locked up. That annoying and diabolical brother of mine!! Always finding a way to ruin my life. That cycle ends today!The guards posted at the heavy iron gate snap to attention the moment they see me, bowing low, their faces pale with fear.“Open it!” I roar, my voice echoing off the walls like thunder.One of them fumbles with the keys, hands shaking, and unlocks the gate with a

    TessaThe world tilts as Bianca's words, my hands shaking uncontrollably. My baby poisoned? No! She is just pulling our legs!She seems so relaxed for any of this to be true, leaning against the wall and inspecting her nails as if this is some sort of cheap joke.“You heard me right, Your Majesties.” She even bows dramatically, her face beaming.Renric and I glance at each other, his eyes wide with the same raw terror and fury suddenly burning through me. Instantly, I rush to my baby's room, my heart beating so fast. I burst into the nursery, shoving the door open so hard it rebounds against the wall.I feel a rush pass through me. There is literally no one here with him.“Terry!” I scream, rushing to the crib.My heart drops the moment I get closer and see him lying unnaturally still, his little cheeks flushed with fever, tiny body burning hot to the touch. His eyes are half-open but unfocused, a weak whimper escaping his lips. I scream, scooping him into my arms and clutching him

    TessaMy mind goes blank. I haven’t thought this through, I haven’t decided what naming our son heir to both the Northern and Eastern throne would really mean.Anything I say right now will be recorded. Renric has actually tightened my hands. The words tangle on my tongue, my pulse thundering in my ears as heat rises to my face.To my astonishment, his voice rings out decisively. “Of course it is.”I turn my head sharply to look at him. Our eyes meet for a brief second before I force my gaze back to the crowd, forcing a small and composed nod.“Yes, our child is also heir to the throne of Eastern Lythengar.”Everyone cheers. Renric smiles.The press conference drags on. By the time it ends, my shoulders ache from the tension I’ve been holding.We walk back inside together in heavy silence, my heart beating so fast. The moment we’re in the private corridor, I hand Terry gently to the waiting nanny. She bows and slips away with him. I walk ahead of Renric, my steps quick and stiff, I r

    Tessa I stand frozen amid the circle of Renric’s guards, my arms tightening protectively around our son. “This is absolutely nonsense! Let us through,” I say, stepping forward with as much authority as I can muster. “This is my child and I am taking him home.”“I'm sorry your majesty but his majesty’s orders were crystal clear.” One of Renric's men says, not budging at all to my words. “His child is not leaving this compound.”I glance at my own head guard, whose hand twitches toward his weapon.“Your Majesty, just give the word…”“No,” I cut him off sharply, raising a hand. The last thing I need is bloodshed, especially with my newborn son in my arms. “Stand down. I won’t have violence over this.”I march back inside, each step heavy with resentment and exhaustion. He better not be serious with all these.In the nursery, I gently hand our sleeping son to the nanny, my fingers lingering on his soft cheek for a moment longer than necessary. “Watch him carefully,” I whisper.Then I s

    Tessa I keep gazing at him, not knowing what to say. This should be the best moment of my life, marrying him again. But it doesn't feel so.We still don't know what the outcome of his appeal would be. We should be focused on that, not this.“I… I don’t think this is the right time,” I whisper, my voice barely steady as I slowly lay the baby on the bed.He stands up immediately, his movements sharp and stiff. Hurt flashes across his face, quickly hardening into anger. His shoulders tense, fists clenching at his sides. “Right time?” his voice echoes, “But you were willing to say yes to Damon.”I flinch, stepping back slightly. “Please don’t do that,” I plead, “I only wanted to get my home back. That’s all it was.”“And you don’t think I can do that for you?” he cuts in.“How?” I quickly ask.His face crumples for a brief second. I think he misunderstands because he simply nods and without another word, he turns and walks out.I only meant he already has enough on his plate right now.

  • Mated To The Brutal Alpha   Chapter 137

    TessaI stir awake slowly, the soft glow of the cabin lamp pulling me from exhausted sleep. My body feels strangely light, powerful even after everything, but the moment my eyes focus and land on Renric, my chest tightens.He is standing a few feet away, staring at me with a look that twists my heart. He looks moody and devastated, his shoulders slumped and jaw clenched like he’s barely holding himself together.What could be bothering him at the moment? We survived his curse. Or perhaps it is his impending execution. I push myself up carefully, wincing slightly as I sit against the pillows. “Is there a problem?” I ask, even when it is obvious.He doesn’t answer right away. His gaze drops, then lifts back to mine heavily with pain. “When were you going to tell me?”“Tell you what?” I ask, furrowing my brows.He stays silent, his eyes flicking toward the table beside the bed. I follow his gaze and my stomach drops. The folder containing Damon’s contract lies open. Damn it! He knows.

    TessaI lie on my side, facing the wall clock, my eyes fixed on the slow, merciless crawl of the second hand, my heart beating so fast.It's pathetically still 10:26 p.m. The guards, the maids and every other household servant eats by ten. And I had hoped that at least in thirty minutes time, the s

    TessaBianca freezes for half a second, then her expression softens like a mask slipping neatly into place.“Oh,” she says gently, clasping her hands together. “Tessa… I was hoping I’d see you.”Hoping to see me? Clearly to ridicule me about merely being a curse breaker and nothing more.“I wanted
