บททั้งหมดของ The Hated Mate (Lycan and his Lover Book 2): บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 20

“Anna, are you alright?” Thena asks in a worried tone. The heart attack did not harm Anna in any way at first but after a while, she started to become pale and feverish. Her temperature is also increasing as if she will fall sick.Anna tries to lift her hand in an attempt to feel stronger again but her hand is shaking a little. She is fatigued and is also having a headache. The dingy cell is only making her feel claustrophobic in that state.“The pain in my chest is gone but I am feverish,” she groans. “That f*cking prince got me good this time.”“A few more rounds of that pain and he will kill you for sure,” Thena nods.“I am not so worried about it,” Anna sighs. “It will pass.”

Anna slowly makes her way towards the study where Lavi is sleeping. She slides the door open and enters the room.Lavi is lying somewhere, still. His eyes are closed and he is in a peaceful slumber, oblivious to everything else. Anna sniffs the air to locate him and deduces that he is sleeping on the couch a few feet from her.She quietly puts the tray on a nearby table and approaches him, taking out the knife from her pocket.Unbeknownst to her, the rays of the sun are peeping through an open window, shining on him. He is motionless on the couch, gently breathing. His reddish hair is ruffled and his face is peaceful, giving him a more innocent look. The sweet scent of his mate hits his nostrils and he opens his eyes to find that Anna is standing above him with a knife raised.

“You should have thought of that when you killed my mate,” Damien says. “Remember Yana? Or did you forget about her too?”A long silence ensues between the two men as they angrily stare at each other. Lavi stays silent but Damien is not going to spare him.“How funny!” Damien laments. “The Crown Prince goes unpunished for my mate’s murder while I suffer for the rest of my life!”He lets out a mirthful laughter. “I see that your mate’s death did not turn you into an empty shell,” Lavi notes.“It did…”Damien’s anger is mixed with deep melancholia, his heart wrapped in a literal pa

The horses are galloping along the deserts of Pir while the hot sun blazes in the sky. Only half the day has passed and they still have a long journey ahead of them. Lavi is on a black stallion, looking haughty and unaffected by the sun but the men around him are already exhausted by the heat. Even Damien seems to be feeling the heat.Anna, on the other hand, is used to the hot weather and is calm. She can feel Lavi’s gaze on her every now and then but she cannot read his mood at all. It feels strange to be the object of his attention as if he will attack her any moment but cannot do so because of Damien.The knight has a protective grip around her, keeping her safe in her seat but Anna barely notices. She is more focused on memorizing the route in order to execute her plan. They are taking the southern road which means that they are going to pass by some

Anna is anxious as she paces back and forth the chamber. She is trying to use her senses and link with her pack members but everything is coming at a blank. It is as if she is still in Lavi’s palace where the magic prevents her from contacting her guild members. But they are not in the palace now so she should be able to contact them.Then why can she not do it?“Magic?” she ponders. “Is there some sort of magic here?”Did the Emperor lure Lavi into a trap? Why did he not tell her? Surely, Damien or someone from the Royal guard would have told her. The Emperor must have planned this…She unconsciously takes off her shawl, feeling too hot. For some reason, she is feeling a little too warm after their arrival. It is strange because she
