LOGINThe bouquet fell freely from Alpha Kyle’s hand… His eyes became bloodshot red. “Mate bond?” He mouthed, staring at the red thread that was tied to my wrist and that of Lucas.“Lucas is the cursed Rachel’s mate?”“That means he can control her destructive wolf?”“Finally. Rachel has a mate.”I could hear the side talks loudly and clearly. My heart skipped. Of course, I saw the red thread tied to Lucas and to my wrist, but why do I feel so distant from him?Why am I not yearning for him? Isn’t it that when two people are mated, they feel this strong connection and urge to be together? Why can’t I feel any connection? “Oh, my God! So Lucas is Rachel’s mate all along?” I heard a voice from behind. A voice I would never cease to recognize. It was Imelda, and this time, her voice was cheerful… filled with overwhelming excitement. I didn’t bother to turn around, but I heard her heels clicking noisily on the polished floor—she walked past me with a smug expression as she hurriedly ran into
Imelda handed the bottle of the mate bond potion to Lucas, who reluctantly took it from her. “This… This is forbidden. What if I get into trouble for this? My poor parents would lose their lives for this.” Lucas said with a shaky voice. However, Imelda looked unbothered and determined. “I am doing you a favor, Lucas. Your mother is on the verge of going blind, and you need money for her surgery, don’t you? A considerable sum of money is at stake here. Don’t you want to be a filial son?” “She has a destructive wolf. What if she attacks me?” Lucas asked in a shaky voice. Staring disgustedly at him, Imelda continued. “You don’t have to worry about that. I’ll have that sorted out. All you have to do is try to hold her hands, and the red thread will appear, showing that you’re her true mate, and then….” Imelda made a gesture of slitting her throat with her hand. Lucas’s eyes widened, and he swallowed an invisible lump in dismay. “K… Kill? I’ll kill her.”“Yes. That girl cannot be spar
Leilani’s eyes grew with a mixture of astonishment and confusion. “Kill Rachel Weston?” She repeated in a shaky voice. “I am not a patient person, Leilani. Your life depends on your task. If you get it done, you can say goodbye to wretchedness, but if you mess things up…” Imelda paused; tension grew in the atmosphere for a few seconds before she began. “You’d have to pay with your life.”A cold shiver ran down Leilani’s spine. Her body was visibly shaking, and her eyes filled with tears. “She’s… She’s the Alpha’s slave; he wants her to live so much that he fed her with his blood. So how… How do I kill her?”Her words agitated Imelda. “Shut up.” She landed a resounding slap across Leilani’s face, and she coughed aggressively, spitting blood. “I am your Luna, and I don’t mind if Kyle wants to save her life. She is trouble and must be eliminated.”“Y… Yes, Mistress.” Leilani nodded her head desperately. “Good.” Imelda snapped and sat on the couch heavily. “Since it is said that only he
“Slap!”The resounding slap landed on Tessa’s face, and she fell on the ground with a groan. She turned around to look at the stewardess with a stain of blood at the corner of her mouth. “Where the hell have you been? I’ve waited for an hour, and there was no sign of you, Tessa? Do you think you can do anything you like and get away with it, you stray dog?” The stewardess retorted coldly. Tessa clenched her fist, trying hard not to flare up. “No, ma’am…” “Shut up. Where did you go off to? Tessa, you’re not just lazy, you’re useless.” The stewardess continued cursing at her. Reluctantly, Tessa struggled up from the ground. Her chest tightened in anger, but she knew better than to exchange words with the stewardess. Her sister’s life and her life depended on getting back to the Silver Crust pack. The stewardess, still consumed by rage, dropped the two bags containing groceries on the ground beside Tessa. “Carry these and follow me. Don’t waste my time.”With a slight nod, Tessa gr
Sitting in front of the mirror, Imelda stared at her image in the mirror with tears running down her cheeks. Her neck region was bruised and reddened due to how firmly Alpha Kyle had pressed her neck. She sobbed silently, sniffing hard. The door creaked open, and Freya walked in with a plate filled with ice and a towel. Placing some ice into the towel, she wrapped it and walked closer to place the ice on her sore neck.However, Imelda snatched the ice from her and placed it on her neck. Her heart ached, and her teeth gritted.Memories of what transpired in the courtroom came rushing back into her head. The Alpha had grabbed her neck when she tried to slander me. His eyes were fierce and filled with fury.“Kyle… you’re hurting me.” Imelda had cried, but Kyle didn’t budge. He kept staring coldly at her. “Rachel is mine. She can only lose her life when I want her to. If I don’t want her dead, no one is allowed to take her life.” He roared at her. The elders were shaking… No one had
“Move it, you slowpoke.” The head chef screamed at Tessa, who was trying hard to conceal the pain she was going through. Tessa quickened her pace and got into the car. Hence, the car zoomed off. At last, she had succeeded in leaving the four walls of the Silver Crust Pack; now it was time to escape from the chef’s hawkish eyes. As soon as they got to the grocery store, Tessa carried the shopping trolley while the chef picked up the groceries. However, she managed to distance herself from the chef, who was busy trying to pick up fresh vegetables. Without hesitation, she ran out of the grocery store and headed straight to the roadside. Making sure that the driver didn’t see her, she flagged down a cab and hopped in. “York Street.” She snapped at the driver, who sped off immediately. The pain was getting intense, but she had to keep herself in check. A few minutes later, the cab pulled over in front of a magnificent mansion, and she made payments and got down from the cab.
