TRADING MY CHEATING HUSBAND FOR THE LYCAN KING CHAPTER 469: MY NAME IS IN HALE’S JOURNAL
EMBER’S POVMove the things that mattered.I look around the room again, this time paying attention to what Hale might have touched after Knox’s men left.The shelves are dusty, but the search has disturbed most of that dust. Books and ornaments have been lifted, shifted and put back badly enough that I can tell where hands have been.Then I see the second shelf.There is a clean rectangle in the dust about the size of a shoebox. The ornaments on either side are packed closely together, with years of grey dust around their bases, but the space between them is almost clean.Something had been sitting there until very recently.I glance at the boxes stacked against the wall. All eleven are already taped shut, and the stack is packed tightly enough.My eyes move to the mantel.There is another clean mark there, this one circular.Two things.Knox’s men searched this room thoroughly, and sometime after they left, Hale removed two things.A chill moves over my skin.Whatever those things w
TRADING MY CHEATING HUSBAND FOR THE LYCAN KING CHAPTER 468: HATI HATI
EMBER’S POVQueenie is waiting near the stairs, pretending very badly to have suddenly developed an interest in the linen cupboard.The second I turn the corner, she grabs my arm, pulls me two doors down into the empty blue room, and shuts the door behind us.“Well?”“She’s in there.”“No!”“Sleeves up, ordering people about, she’s sent a girl for paleos root.”“She actually went for it?”“She went for it in about ninety seconds.” I press the heels of my hands into my eyes. “Goddess. Dear goddess. My heart’s pounding, I think I’m going to be sick, I screamed at those poor nurses like a lunatic-”“You screamed at them like a woman whose friend just dropped,” Queenie says. “Which is the only reason it worked, so don’t start.” She’s still holding the door. “Is she alright, though? Rayana. Actually?”“She’s fine.”“Ember.”“She is fine, Queenie; you were standing right there when we did it!” I pull my hands away from my face. “You saw how much. It was barely anything.”And it was.Over th
TRADING MY CHEATING HUSBAND FOR THE LYCAN KING CHAPTER 467: HALE TAKES THE BAIT
EMBER’S POV“I understand that, and I’m telling you I’m not—”“You said you had nothing to do with it.”Hale goes still.A few of the women behind her do too, and I feel every eye in the corridor turn toward us. I tighten my grip on her hand and look up at her through the tears.“Yesterday,” I say. “You stood in your room with your things all over the floor and told my boyfriend you’d never harmed anyone in this house. You said you stayed up with those girls because that’s just who you are. You know your herbs, Hale. You keep telling everyone you’re this good person who helps people.” I’m gripping her hand with both of mine now. “So help me. Please. Help her right now. I can’t lose one more woman in this house. I can’t, I’ll go mad, I’ll actually go mad-”“That’s not fair, Ember,” Hale breathes, and for once she actually sounds caught off guard.“I know it’s not fair!”“You are asking me in a corridor full of-”“I’m asking you because there’s nobody else!” I tighten my grip on her han
TRADING MY CHEATING HUSBAND FOR THE LYCAN KING CHAPTER 466: RAYANA GOES DOWN
EMBER’S POVRayana goes down at nine-twenty in the morning.The first warning is a small, wet cough that shakes her whole body.Before I can ask if she’s okay, her head falls back against the chair and keeps tipping until her neck bends at an angle that looks wrong.One arm slips from the armrest and hangs loose at her side.“Rayana.”The blanket slides off her lap onto the floor.“Rayana! Rayana!”I’m on my knees before I even realise I’ve moved.I put both hands on her face, trying to make her look at me, but her skin is cool under my palms, and her half-open eyes stare past me, seeing nothing.Her mouth hangs slightly open, a thin line of spit gathering at one corner, and no matter how hard I look, I can’t see her chest moving.That sight sends every fear I’ve carried for the last few weeks rushing through me at once.I’ve spent too many nights waking at three in the morning and creeping into her room just to make sure her chest is still moving, and now she’s limp in my hands.My f
TRADING MY CHEATING HUSBAND FOR THE LYCAN KING CHAPTER 465: OPERATION BURN THE WITCH
EMBER’S POVQueenie stares at me.“What?” Her voice shoots up. “Have you gone insane? Did you miss the entire part where Rayana just explained that Hale might basically be a psychopathic supervillain? What if she wants you doing exactly that?”“Queenie—”“No. Absolutely not.” She is already off the bed. “Six trained men have been through Hale’s room, and now you want to go creeping around in there yourself while she is still in this house? Then, apparently, you want to walk into the room that nearly made your wolf lose her fucking mind and deliberately put yourself back into a trance? While the Council is already on the road?” She throws up her hands. “Do you have any idea what Hale could do with that? Do you know how it looks if she catches the King’s wife going through her drawers?”“I know exactly how it looks—”“Do you? Because from where I’m standing, it looks like every single thing she has been whispering about you since the day you arrived, handed to her on a fucking plate by
TRADING MY CHEATING HUSBAND FOR THE LYCAN KING CHAPTER 464: A PSYCHOPATH’S ROOM
EMBER’S POVGoddess.Anything we did against her now could be turned into exactly the story she had already started telling.Knox had gone soft. His new wife had filled his head with lies. He had humiliated his own family to keep her happy, searched an innocent woman’s belongings, found nothing, and still refused to let it go.Hale would fucking dine out on it.“So we’ve been playing into her hands.”“I don’t know that yet,” Rayana says. “But if you want me to think like her, then yes, that is the possibility I would take seriously. I would assume she is one step ahead until she proves otherwise, and I would stop asking what she did after you became suspicious. I’d start asking what she had already put in place before you ever thought to look.”Her fingers tap once against the chair.“And I would go much further back than yesterday. Why Celeste? What did Hale get from being that close to her, and what disappeared from Hale’s reach when Celeste died? What did Celeste have that Hale cou
