Lahat ng Kabanata ng Mated to my Enemy Alpha King: Kabanata 91 - Kabanata 100

AVERYSilently, I remain sitting on my bed. I have a hunch that soon, Aleister will come for me too. He won’t be satisfied with just locking up Renee in some dungeon.As expected, a few hours later, the door to my room opens again. The darkness meets me on the other side.Slowly, I pick up my head and look at the empty doorway. After a moment, his big frame appears there. My heart leaps to my throat. The energy in my veins gradually calms down as the small sparks run up my spine.Our eyes meet. I don’t see any emotion in his eyes—just pure malice—like the day we met in the throne room. Me, on my knees. Him, standing proud like the cruel King he was.Did I think something changed between us until yesterday? Yes. Yes, I did.I thought we both liked each other and would be getting close. I thought he would come to me every night. We would talk about our lives. We would find comfort in each other.And I…I will find a home. In him. With him.It was all a lie.Aleister walks inside the r

AVERYShortly after Aleister left, Draven came again. I had fallen out of Aleister’s list of favorite women. I was just a girl in the Harem now and that’s where I was supposed to be, to stay, to live.He took me straight to the Hall and sent me to a room in the corner. It was just a simple room—a single bed, a chair in the corner, a cupboard beside the bed and that’s it.I didn’t fight back. I sat down on the hard mattress and stared at the floor in a trance.It was safe to say that my mind was completely numb. I couldn’t make sense of what Aleister just did to me in the room.“ You don’t need to concern yourself with anything now. ” Draven says, standing beside the door. I don’t need to reply. I can’t even think of anything.“ Relax, Avery. If you stay away from him, your life will be easy from now on. ” He sighs. “ And don’t worry. He won’t do anything to Renee. ”“ Why are you saying all this to me now? Are not you happy after seeing me like this? ” I wonder, looking up at him.“

AVERY~One Month Later…I often heard people say before.Times fixes everything.With time, you forget your pain.With time, you forgive the people who hurt you.With time, you feel as good as new.That’s a lie. It’s not the time that fixes everything. It’s the people you meet and the way your life changes and something more—something that I still don’t get until now. I am lucky that I got both. I got to meet people and my life changed.But that something…a small element is still missing from my life. As a new day comes, and the darkness clouds the South, I find myself in search of that final piece of the puzzle but fail every time.“ Avery! Nellie is calling you over! ” The small child shouts from the distance.I snap out of my thoughts and glance at the girl from over my shoulder. Her round face reminds me of Celia. The sweet girl who smiled at me and told me she liked me, missed me, wanted to stay with me. Now, I can’t see her anymore. “ I am coming, Belle! ” I shout back with

ALEISTER “ Found anything about her? ” I ask my brother after sensing his presence behind me. “ Nothing yet. ” The reply is the same as ever. It’s been twenty-eight days since I got to know that she ran away from me. She left me behind to spend her life somewhere else. To say that I searched the whole South’s territory for her is an understatement. I looked for her in the North, in the East, in the West…everywhere she could go. But there is no sign of those golden locks and electric blue eyes. The beauty seems to have disappeared from my life, never to be found again. No. Not a never. Forever is too long. I can’t spend it without her. “ Leister. How long are you going to keep at it? The rebellion is over. You don’t need to personally search for those hidden fuckers. I can do that. You need to return home and take your throne again. ” Draven sighs. “ Don’t give me advice. Go back and look after the Kingdom until I return. ” I reply blankly and glance at the open box beside me.

AVERYI glance at the dark sky. A haze is spreading across the space. It hints at the arrival of someone I don’t want to see again.Quickly, I get to my feet and rush back to Nellie’s place. Not so surprisingly, the village’s people are already running in the direction of the village head’s office.Marco said Aleister wouldn’t come. I don’t think he was sure. “ Avery. ” Sara pants as she runs in my direction.I look at her face which is turning red with the lack of oxygen. My heart sinks.“ He came? ” I whisper under my breath.“ I—I…We don’t know what happened. ” She leans back. “ The King was not supposed to come here. ”Did he find out about me?“ Hurry, we need to hide you! ” She grabs my hand without warning and starts pulling me towards the deep forest.When I first came here, it took a long time to get out of numbness. Now, my mind is hazy again. I can’t make sense of anything.Why did Aleister have to come here?“ Speed up, Avery! ” Sara hisses, breaking out into a sprint. “
