Chapter 100:Violetâs POVAsher took me back to the Forgotten Lands. He showed me photos and videos of my parents. He gave me the family I had been craving for. I had it all except, my heart.I couldnât help but feel like a piece of me was missing.âDo you think he will be fine by now?â I asked Asher as we sat looking over the setting sun while he held my baby âwhom I secretly named Blade, after Axelâs missing sibling.I could feel Asherâs eyes on me, but I tried to keep a straight face. âItâs been two weeks since we left Axelâs lands, but you donât miss a day without enquiring after him,â Asher pointed out and I felt my cheeks heat up instantly.âNo, itâs nothing like that. I am just asking.â I tried to fix my sentence but even I knew that my defenses were only making it worse.Asher kept staring at me with that boyish face he always gave when he caught me, and I knew that lying would be pointless.I let out a sigh and closed my eyes. âI have really tried hating him. Forgetting him.
Chapter 99:Axelâs POVMy heart tore into multiple layers by Asherâs question. My eyes turned red as emotions curled through me. I opened my mouth to speak but words failed me. I turned to Violet, but she had her eyes fixed on her cousin. I wished I had protected our bond so that I could communicate with her at this moment.For the first time in my life, I felt stupid, dumb, and useless. I had no answer in my head to give that could be the right one.On one side, I wanted to tell him to fuck off and that Violet was never a slave here but not even my wicked conscience would let me say that out loud. I had been too cruel to Violet. Being a slave did not begin to define how far below I had downgraded her.On the other end, he was her cousin and probably the only legal family. I had to seek his fucking blessing and not be harsh. Yet I didnât know how to begin. There was this large lump in my throat that reminded me of my sins and assured me that Violet would never forgive me ânot after w
Chapter 98:Violetâs POVâThis is even prettier than I remember it!â Skylar screeched as she helped me arrange my clothes in the drawers.âWe are going to need baby clothes. The crochet tops you made, wouldnât be enough. We will have to tell the kingââ Hilda started to say but I quickly refused it.âNo, Hilda. I donât want his help.ââBut he is your mate. Your husband,â she pointed out, but I shook my head refusing her words. âHe isnât my mate and much more my husband. He is just the man that fathered my baby,â I whispered. My eyes moved to where my baby lay in a beautiful crib. How Scarlett got everything made in such a short time was surprising. She was truly an angel.I was suddenly pulled out of my thoughts as I felt a warm hand rest on my shoulders. I moved my eyes off my child and traced the source of the hand to find it belonged to Hilda.âWe all know that Axel did you wrong, but you canât deny the fact that you love himâââBefore loving him, she had herself to fucking love,â
Chapter 97:Axelâs POVAunt Emily led me back to my room where I had left Violet and the baby âour baby. My heart doubted that Violet would ever forgive me after everything I did to her, but Aunt Emily was optimistic. She held my arm like a little child and as we got to the door, she knocked first before clicking it open.My heart was in my stomach as I held my breath, too scared to breathe as her broken face came into view but to my dismay, the bed was empty âand cleaned. There was no one except Scarlett glaring back at me.One look at her and I knew that she was already aware of the situation. Shame washed over me, and my eyes lowered to the ground.âScarlett,â Aunt Emily called as she moved towards her. She embraced her and placed a perk on her cheek. âHow are you?ââI am fine, Aunt Emily,â she whispered in that gentle voice of hers, but I could feel her eyes on me as she spoke, and I dared not raise mine to meet hers.âWhere is Violet, did you meet her here?â Aunt Emily asked her
Chapter 96:Violetâs POVMy lower abdomen was killing me with pain. It kept shooting through me, weakening my legs to the point I could barely feel them anymore.Tears filled my eyes as I thought about what happened. The tears werenât from the pain, it was from my heart.Even now, I couldnât hate Axel. I wanted him still and this broke me. How could I enjoy what he did to me? How could I have moaned in between the pain when my little child was just a couple of meters away?What sort of mother was I?I couldnât tell how long I was curled up on the bed, but it was long enough for me to realize that I had made a mistake birthing the child. I shouldnât have allowed him to live because now, he was going to suffer for a crime he knew nothing about.Axel was going to hate and punish him constantly because he would see him as a bastard. And me?I would remain a sex slave for the rest of my life while he had his life with his new bride, Scarlett. Was this the kind of life I wanted my baby to h
Chapter 95:Axelâs POVI kept going all through the night, thrusting deep until I became intoxicated by her soft folds. I didnât stop even when she started bleeding. I didnât stop when she cried out, begging me to stop; not even when my wolf started clawing at me.This was both revenge and torture for her crimes. She had let someone else touch the body I craved. The same body I was ready to honor in every way possible. I cherished her and gave her everything, but she threw all that away and let some fool touch her.The pain in my heart spread and I felt tears dancing in my eyes. Violet had turned me into a mess. I was a ticking time bomb of chaotic emotions.I couldnât even tell how I felt or what I wanted. One time, I enjoyed hurting her and the next it tore me apart. The moment she broke my heart and shattered my trust, everything exploded within me.Violet made a fool out of me. She stole my heart and placed me in a position where my love for her could not be erased. My body coul
