บททั้งหมดของ The Alpha's Exchanged Mate : บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 20

Edwina's POV...I glared out my window, it was a brand new day and the air felt lighter, but I didn't feel lighter; I just knew I was free from one of my heart-felt turmoil and about to start one more, I was going to marry a man I don't love, to save a sister who never showed me any kindness as she did before yesterday.I was overwhelmed with the despair of my current situation, I was always one who wanted to marry for love and nothing more. Not for money, not for appearance but just for love. Thinking about marrying a disabled man I don't love was another struggle in my head. How was I going to cope with that and not lose my mind in the process?"Stay still," Becca commanded me as she inserted another pin into my headgear."Ouch," I cried out as she mistakenly pierced into my skin."Sorry," she apologized, "Please stay still so I don't pierce your head again," she instructed and I sighed then nodded my head.She was trying to make me over to prepare me for the official ceremony of th

Edwina's POV...The ceremony took way more time than I had anticipated. There were a lot of dipping hands in water and immersing one's leg in a green slimy-looking sticky substance.When we were done with the ritual, there was a brief celebration. My heart was in no mood for celebration; I had nothing to celebrate because all I had known to be true about marriage had failed.I always thought of marrying for love and when I thought I did, my marriage failed, I got a cheating husband and now I am getting married to a man I didn't love to save my sister and Benedict.I wondered how he felt when they approached him with the marriage news. Was he angry, or did he feel betrayed?I don't know why I should give a fuck or care about how he feels when truly he was the one who broke us, he cheated on me with my sister."I have this whole new perspective of the tradition surrounding marriages," Alpha Xander whispered to me, I don't know why I was still so formal around him but maybe it's because

Edwina's POV...He let out a soft moan. He was trying not to, but the harder I sucked into his hard length, the more he moaned. I must say that when I entered the bathroom, I told myself that I was not going to have sex with him today. I had always had this romanticized visual about sex; it had to be done for love and nothing more.Then I remembered all the experiences I had with Benedict; he was the first and only man I had ever been with. He loved to fuck, hard and fast, and we had two different views about what sex should be like. I wanted to make love to him, and he wanted nothing other than to bang sex. He took me everywhere; in the kitchen, couch, bedroom, car, and sometimes in public areas.I didn't feel like his wife, but more like his fuck buddy by the amount of time, we had sex and also by the absence of emotions from him whenever we had intercourse. It was not my ideal marriage or sex, and whenever I raised my concern about how my sexual needs were not being met, he would a

Edwina's POV…I woke up feeling like a different person, like a woman who had just cheated on her husband and actually enjoyed it, I felt disgusted by my actions, and I never wanted to enjoy sex with a man who was more like a stranger to me than my husband, I felt like I had betrayed the love I had for him and not just him, but my sister. So when I woke up and Alexander was trying to make a conversation with me, that was where my head was at."Ma'am, would you be taking your shower now, or do you want to later?" Becca asked, interfering in my guilty thoughts."Becca, you can just call me Edwina. No need for all the formality", I replied, quite tired of her politeness and cautiousness around me.I stood up from the bed and wrapped the robe around my body, and sat on the long red cushion in the room."The moon goddess forbids ma'am, you are now the Luna and I dare not disrespect you,"I sighed. What is it with all these people and the so-called moon goddess and her influence on their ch

Alexander's POV...For the first time in a while, I was looking forward to going home. I wasn't sure why I felt that way, but I knew it brought me a tremendous amount of happiness. We are most probably going to have a fight and most likely not agree on something, but for the first time, I was going home to my real mate, and that alone is worth celebrating.I reached home to meet Becca in the central parlor. Why was she there? She should be anywhere Edwina is."Becca, why are you here?" I asked without even answering her greeting."She said she wanted to be alone," she replied calmly."Alone, Alone where?" I asked."She is in the room," she replied."Is she still in our room, or does she mean another room?" I had instructed Becca earlier to aid her move into another room, so I wasn't sure what room exactly we were talking about."What room is that?" I asked again."Your room, sir, " she replied, and then I exhaled. I quickly wheeled myself to the room. After the whole fiasco about sex
