Chapter 7

Autor: Greenie
A sharp scream snapped me out of my memories.

Lia suddenly shoved Mom to the ground in a frenzy, then ran back to Kellan. She begged desperately, "Kellan, whatever Mom did has nothing to do with me. I'm innocent. Please don't hate me, okay?"

But Kellan did not even acknowledge her. He stepped forward, grabbed Mom by the collar, and hauled her to her feet. "So you killed Mr. Smith and Ella because of your filthy affair with your brother?"

"Jacob brought it on himself!" Mom retorted, meeting Ke

  • Swapping Places with My Sister Before I Die   Chapter 10

    A few days later, one of Kellan's subordinates, Seth Johnson, reported back to Kellan with the information he had gathered."Ms. Smith had everything robbed from her on her very first day in the wilderness. She barely survived by scavenging whatever the vultures left behind."Apparently, she called out your name under the moonlight every night, disturbing others, so she was often driven away or bitten until she was covered in wounds."I also found out that three months ago, Ms. Smith tried to cross the border to come back, but…"Seth glanced cautiously at Kellan, who was seated on the chair. Seeing Kellan's expression grow darker and darker, Seth lowered his voice."But the border guards drove her away. I heard they were quite heavy-handed and even threw her to a pack of feral dogs in the end."No sooner had he finished than a crack was heard. The armrest of the chair had snapped under Kellan's grip.Seth flinched and quickly asked, "Alpha, should I go and bring those guards her

    A crisp, loud slap landed hard on Lia's face.Mom shook with rage as she said, "I've done so much for you, and yet you blame me?"Lia, who had probably never been hit in her life, stood stunned for a few seconds before bursting into hysterical sobs.She shoved Mom away as she cried, "You don't deserve to be my mother! I want nothing to do with you! Get out! Leave right now! I never want to see you again—"Mom kept backing up until suddenly, her foot met empty air. With a loud splash, she fell straight into the old well in the courtyard.That well had been dug by my grandfather's forefathers and had stood in the courtyard for centuries.I remembered how Dad had always warned me to stay far away from it back when I was a pup. The well was narrow and deep, so if anyone ever fell in, it was almost impossible to climb back out.Years ago, there used to be a railing around it. But now, there was no protection at all.I floated over quickly, but all I saw were ripples spreading across

    "You bitch!" Kellan roared, his hand closing around Mom's throat.Mom's face instantly twisted in agony from the lack of air. She kicked and clawed at Kellan, making broken, strangled sounds.Seeing her struggle, I instinctively wanted to stop him. After all, she had given me life. I couldn't bear to watch her being strangled to death right in front of me.But I was only a ghost. I passed through Kellan's body once again, powerless to do anything else.Just as Mom was on the verge of her last breath, a firefly that had been hovering around me landed on the back of Kellan's hand.It seemed to jolt him back to his senses, and he abruptly loosened his grip.Mom slid to the floor, coughing violently. While gasping for air, she cursed furiously, "I knew you wouldn't dare to kill me, you coward! You let someone else take the blame for you because you were too cowardly back then too! You're the one who got Ella killed. You're the real murderer!"Kellan ignored her and walked toward my

    A sharp scream snapped me out of my memories.Lia suddenly shoved Mom to the ground in a frenzy, then ran back to Kellan. She begged desperately, "Kellan, whatever Mom did has nothing to do with me. I'm innocent. Please don't hate me, okay?"But Kellan did not even acknowledge her. He stepped forward, grabbed Mom by the collar, and hauled her to her feet. "So you killed Mr. Smith and Ella because of your filthy affair with your brother?""Jacob brought it on himself!" Mom retorted, meeting Kellan's gaze without a trace of fear. "He overestimated himself and challenged Jason to a duel, and that was what led to him falling off the cliff and dying!"Then, a twisted smile crept across Mom's face. "As for Ella, wasn't that all your fault?"Kellan stiffened. "What do you mean by that?""What do I mean?" she scoffed. "Had Ella not taken your place and suffered in the wilderness for a whole year, you'd be the one who's dead now!"She pointed at Granny, who was lying not too far off, and

    Mom sneakily tried to take the diary away, but Kellan was one step ahead and gripped it firmly in his hand.Mom was clearly panicking. Her face turned deathly pale as she said, "Give it to me! That was my husband's belongings. I should be the one to keep it. You have no right to read someone else's private matters!"Kellan stared at her with a complicated look in his eyes. After a few seconds, he finally spoke. "Mrs. Smith, I'm giving you a chance to come clean. Tell me, did you kill Ella? If you won't speak, I'll take this diary and call for a meeting with the Elders. We can just let everyone judge for themselves.""No! Please, don't!" Mom quickly cried out. "Ella's death has nothing to do with me. Why would I kill my own daughter? It wasn't me! I swear!""Stop wasting your breath on her," Granny huffed angrily. "Just call the meeting and expose their ugly incestuous affair to the whole pack!"Kellan made a gesture for Granny to stay quiet, then stepped forward slowly, backing

  • Swapping Places with My Sister Before I Die   Chapter 5

    Kellan stood frozen in place, as if all the strength had been drained from his body.He stared at me on the stretcher, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief. It took him a long while before he finally managed to force out a hoarse whisper. "Impossible... This is impossible..."After a long pause, he seemed to snap out of his stupor. He whipped around and roared at Lia behind him, "Didn't you say she was hiding because she got pregnant? Then what the hell is this? What is going on?"Lia flinched in terror and stumbled back several steps, clutching onto Mom. "Y-yes… You saw the video yourself, didn't you? How was I supposed to know that she…"Before she could finish, a frantic, stumbling rush of footsteps sounded outside the door.The next second, my grandmother, Felicity Hale, came crashing through the entrance. The moment she saw me lying on the stretcher, she seemed to crumble. She threw herself down on her knees beside me, covered her face, and burst into heart-wrenching sobs
