Selina's POV.

I should have known she was the mastermind of all this.

"Chloe? What are you doing here? And what am I doing here as well?" My words came out in a low whisper.

"And if it isn't the Almighty Selina who has returned to cause me pains," she chuckled.

"Chloe, I don't know how I ended up here and I really don't want to know, just please save me and you'll be rewarded greatly by Malik," I stared at her with pleading eyes.

Again, she roared into a fit of laughter, the sound of her voice pierced into my heart like a sharp dagger.

"Oh Selina, c'mon, I know you to be smarter than this," he muttered amidst laughter. "You don't know how you ended up here? Really now?"

"I don't know Chloe, I just want to leave here, I didn't return to the pack for this," I replied.

She chuckled dryly, shaking her head. "Look who suddenly became so scared, I thought you were so untouchable? Now I could kill you here and no one will know about it."

Her words struck me like a bolt of heavy lightning,

  • Rejected and Banished; The kids are his.   Chapter hundred and thirty six.

    Eva's POV.I sat there, still shaken.My head leaned against the edge of the bed, my fingers tangled together in my lap so tightly they’d gone cold. The room was quiet, too quiet for how loud the thoughts in my head were screaming.I couldn’t shake off the image of Lady Isabella and Alonzo’s smug, beaten-down faces. You’d think prison would have humbled them. But no, they still had that annoying smirk plastered on like they were the ones winning. Like I was the one trapped, not them.But the worst part wasn’t their laughter.It was the truth in their words.Aragorn.Of course.All this time, we were watching Alonzo and Isabella like hawks, thinking we had the real threat cornered.But Aragorn was just there.Moving in silence.Hiding in plain sight.Acting like the calm, reserved one. Never raising his voice. Never interfering. And we all thought he was harmless just because he kept his mouth shut.Hating Nicklaus in silence, I can't believe he admitted to me that Nicklaus isn't his b

  • Rejected and Banished; The kids are his.   Chapter hundred and thirty five.

    Eva's POV. Once I've cried myself to stupor, and some of the tension has left, I quickly stood to my feet and stormed out. Thankfully, Nicklaus hasn't returned home yet. I didn’t even pause to catch my breath, I didn’t care about appearances anymore, or the house workers who looked startled to see me storming through the passageway like a madwoman.“Open the damn window,” I barked at the guards when I reached the dungeon corridor.They hesitated.“Now.”The window was the only channel between the prisoners and the outside world. It was thick-barred and stone-framed, just wide enough to see a face if someone came close. Nobody ever opened the dungeon door. Nobody was allowed to.The moment the iron-barred shutter creaked open, there she was.Lady Isabella.Face pale. Eyes sunken. Lips cracked. Hair a matted mess.Still smirking.And just behind her, leaning lazily against the far wall like he will die the next second, was Alonzo. His shirt was torn, his face bruised, and yet he had

  • Rejected and Banished; The kids are his.   chapter hundred and thirty four.

    Eva's POV.I wanted to breathe outside the walls of the house, to walk, to stretch, to feel like things were normal.Except they weren’t.They hadn’t been since Aragorn and I; his words haunted me constantly, always there, always reminding me that peace was temporary.So yes, I had a guard.He followed me silently, a respectable distance behind, but close enough that I could feel him behind me. Every few minutes, I looked over my shoulder, half expecting Aragorn to appear from a corner. He didn’t. But the fear didn’t leave.I inhaled deeply and forced myself to keep walking.As I strolled through the path that cut through the middle of the pack square, I passed a young lady, not much older than me, perhaps. “Good evening,” I greeted softly, nodding at her with a polite smile.She looked me up and down. Slowly. Then rolled her eyes. "Slut.” she muttered under her breath. I paused mid-step. My breath caught.What?I blinked at her retreating back, unsure if I’d imagined it. I turned

  • Rejected and Banished; The kids are his.   chapter hundred and thirty three.

    Eva's POV. It had been two weeks.Two whole weeks since Aragorn pulled a threat that’s refused to let me sleep through the night. Two weeks of smiling and pretending, of waking up every day beside Nicklaus and pretending everything was normal, pretending I was normal.But I wasn’t.I hadn’t been the same since that day.Not because Aragorn’s words were the most terrifying I’d ever heard, but because he'd said them so calmly. I hadn’t told Nicklaus.Because I didn’t want to ruin what we had. Not when things were finally calm, not when for the first time in what felt like forever, there was peace in our home.But inside me?A war raged.I stood beneath the shower, watching the water wash down my body, trying to will the anxiety away. I let the warmth soak into my skin, running down my back and over my shoulders. My fingers pressed into my temples as I breathed in slowly… and exhaled even slower.You’re being paranoid, Eva, I told myself for the hundredth time.But I wasn’t. I knew I w

  • Rejected and Banished; The kids are his.   Chapter hundred and thirty two.

    Eva's POV. I remained seated on the couch, outside the king's chamber, trying to calm the riot of thoughts that had taken over my head. My fingers kept fidgeting with the edge of my dress. I’d adjusted my position on the bench maybe ten times now, craning my neck toward the door each time I thought I heard movement.Still no sign of Nicklaus.I leaned my head back against the armrest again, staring up at the painted ceiling beams, and sighed deeply. I suddenly heard the sound of slow footsteps heading in my direction.I sat up quickly, smoothing my gown and fixing my posture as I looked toward the corridor, my heart fluttering with excitement that he's finally out and we can leave already. As soon as I turned around, my smile died as my gaze landed on the tall figure of Aragorn, Nicklaus’s last remaining brother."Well, well," he said, the corner of his lips lifting in amusement. "I see the lovely Luna isn’t quite used to being apart from her husband."I blinked at him, caught off

  • Rejected and Banished; The kids are his.   Chapter hundred and thirty one.

    Eva's POV.I stood beside Nicklaus as we escorted Renna to her waiting carriage. “I can’t thank you enough,” I said, flashing her a warm smile. “For everything.”Nicklaus nodded beside me. “You’ve done more for us than we could’ve asked. I owe you one.”Renna smiled and gave him a wink. “You both don’t owe me anything. But if you insist… throw in some wildflowers the next time I visit.”We all laughed, and then she climbed the small steps into the carriage. She settled into the seat, but before the driver could call for the horses, she turned her head toward me again and made a small gesture with her finger. I stepped closer, bending slightly so she could whisper into my ear.“I don’t mean to be nosey…” she said softly, with that knowing glint in her eyes, “but I heard moans.”My cheeks flushed a deep red. I could barely lift my eyes to meet hers, but I nodded sheepishly and whispered back, “We’ve… done it.”Renna’s smile widened and without hesitation, she pulled me into a warm hug.
