The Mate They Threw Away Chapter 9
Cedric’s hand had been severed clean at the wrist.The heir of Blackmoor Pack cast aside the blade and kicked him so hard he slid across the stone floor.Then he pulled me into his arms and looked me over as if he meant to confirm with his own hands that I was still whole.His voice came out sharp with fury.“Take him to Alpha Council custody.”“Attempted murder.”“I want him buried there until he rots.”As Cedric was dragged away, he was still shouting my name.I did not look at him once.The heir of Blackmoor Pack checked me from head to toe, then forced a scowl onto his face as if anger were easier than fear.“This is why I keep telling you I should pick you up myself.”“You keep saying I’m too clingy. Look what almost happened tonight.”“If I hadn’t come after you, do you know what kind of disaster this would have been?”He was trying so hard to sound annoyed that I laughed.“All right, all right.”“From now on, wherever I go, you go too.”“If you fall even half a step behind, I’ll
The Mate They Threw Away Chapter 8
Before long, Father invited that man to a private family supper.He put poison in the wine served to Sylvie, her mother, and the man alike.He drank from it too.Before he died, he transferred everything still in his name to me.As Sylvie’s elder sister, I received what had once been meant for her without challenge.And without me beside him as adviser, Cedric began making mistake after mistake in the decisions tied to his business arm.More importantly, the people who had once formed the backbone of his operations were the very ones I had brought in myself.When they learned I had taken control of the pack holdings and heard what Cedric had done to me, they resigned one after another and came over to my side.As for their contract penalties, the heir of Blackmoor Pack paid every one of them.He said he did not do it for profit.He simply enjoyed seeing Cedric miserable.To keep Cedric from coming after me, he also quietly put pressure on the trade circle around the capital pack.Those

After they were thrown out, Sylvie reached for Cedric’s hand, still sobbing.“I don’t know what kind of spell Elara put on him, but look how bewitched he is. Cedric, you’re the only one who’s ever truly cared for me. Since she refuses to dissolve her bond, then let’s at least enter ours into the Moon Registry—”Cedric shoved her so hard she stumbled backward.When he looked at her again, his eyes were colder than I had ever seen.“You were that young, and already you knew how to work with your mother to destroy hers.”“And the day Elara was burned, that was your trick too, wasn’t it? You staged the whole thing so I would punish her for you.”Sylvie stared at him, stunned.Then she started shaking her head, tears pouring harder.“Cedric, no, listen to me—”“Shut up.”His voice was flat.“You poisonous thing. Why would I ever bind myself to you now?”“Take whatever pain you’ve earned and disappear. If I see you again, I won’t be this kind.”It happened exactly as I expected.That same ni

The moment those words left Cedric’s mouth, the people gathered nearby looked at him with open disgust.“So that’s what this is? He wants to switch chosen mates again?”“That’s foul.”Only Sylvie looked pleased. She lowered her voice, soft and eager.“If there was never a mark, then it isn’t really mate-swapping, is it? Just a misunderstanding. I’m willing to make things right for my sister and Cedric. I can go to Blackmoor instead.”At that, Cedric gave her a long, unreadable look.What he said was one thing. What Sylvie wanted was another.She was far too eager.That alone told him she had never truly wanted him at all.Not the way I once had.I had stayed when he had nothing. Stayed when he was still the bastard no one wanted to acknowledge. Stayed while he clawed his way upward.And in that instant, Cedric found himself absurdly grateful that every time Sylvie had urged him to enter their bond into the Moon Registry, he had delayed, saying he wanted to wait for a better day.The Bl

Cedric knew that face.The old Alpha of Blackmoor Pack.One hundred and two years old.A sharp, restless unease rose in his chest.He grabbed the mourner standing beside him.“I was told the dead man was the Blackmoor Alpha heir. Why is it the old Alpha?”The other man looked at him, baffled, then let out a dry laugh.“You’re still on that?”“Weren’t we all made fools of badly enough already? The Blackmoor Alpha heir really knows how to play a room.”“Then again, we were the fools for forgetting what day that message came.”Cedric stared at him.What day could he possibly mean?The day of his bonding ceremony, of course.The day he had been meant to take Elara as his chosen mate, until…But the other man clearly meant something else.Before Cedric could press further, the old Blackmoor steward cleared his throat.“Make way, please. The heir of Blackmoor Pack and his mate have come to pay their respects.”Cedric turned sharply.And froze.I walked in wearing a hand-tailored black mourni
The Mate They Threw Away Chapter 4
“E-Elara, I didn’t mean to…”I didn’t even look at Sylvie.I dropped to my knees and scrambled across the floor, gathering the shattered pieces of my mother’s bracelet with shaking hands.Several moonstones had cracked clean through. The gold setting had split. One half still lay in my palm, but the rest had scattered so far that some pieces were already lost beneath the cabinet.I couldn’t even protect the last thing my mother had left me.Something inside me seemed to split open with it. My tears hit the floor one after another.For the first time, something like guilt flickered across Cedric’s face.“Elara…”As if suddenly remembering what part she was supposed to play, Sylvie quickly snatched up the covered bowl from the table and held it out to me.“Look, I even brought you a tonic. They say it helps keep infection away. Drink it, and forgive me, all right?”A foul smell rose from the dark liquid. Floating on top were strips of boiled herbs, ground shell, and thick black sediment
