บททั้งหมดของ CURSED TO BE QUEEN: บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

Chapter 1CALIANA'S POVThe creaking sound of my door opening made my eyes shoot open. I heaved a small sigh, slowly reaching for my bedside lamp.My heart raced like it was part of a marathon, as muffled steps approached my bed. That familiar pine scent filled my nostrils and my stomach churned in discomfort.I flickered the switch on and jolted out of my bed. My stepbrother paused on his track, frozen as if he had just been caught doing the unthinkable."Vince!!! Uh! What are you doing here so late at night? Do you need something?" I asked, backing away from him."Hi! Urm. I apologize for disrupting your sleep, it's midnight and I am not supposed to be here…"Y–Yes! You are not supposed to be here." I drew on those words, making it known that his presence made me super uncomfortable.Vince remained quiet as if thinking of his next line, my eyes drifted to the wall clock and it clearly showed 2 am. My stepmother would be fast asleep, I guess that's why he is here at such an unruly ho

CALIANA'S POVThis can't be, he can't be my mate. I have dreamed and fantasize a lot about my fated mate when I turned 18, but here I was staring at a half-naked man with a naked woman underneath him in shameless intimacy and he is my sad mate.My shoulders sagged, tears burned my eyes and blurred my vision. The sight of my mate with another woman haunted me. It was like a knife had been driven into my heart. I did my best to stay strong, cause right there, I wanted to crawl into a quiet corner and cry my eyes out.But Instead, I held the doorknob and closed the door. After all, I interrupted their play time, might as well give them some privacy."Ma'am!" Another young woman with beautiful blond hair came to where I stood.I said nothing in return, I watched as she smiled at me, but I didn't react to her kind gesture."Please come with me, let's get you settled in another room." She walked further down the hallway, and I reluctantly followed her.There was another door and I hoped no

Chapter 5 EDWARD'S POV THE NEXT DAY "Go ahead and knock; we need to see how our mate is fairing," Stark whined in my head nonstop. He was eager to see Caliana again after what happened last night, and we were both drawn to our hurting mate. I crazily spent half the night in her arms; she didn't notice though, and I was really careful not to raise an alarm. Thanks to stark, all he wanted was to be super close to her. He made my life a living hell until I accepted and sneaked into her room for 4 hours straight. It was hard leaving her all by herself, but I had to do it. It would be better if she noticed my scent rather than find me wrapping my hands around her. My fist paused halfway, not touching her door. I couldn't do it; I lacked the confidence. "Some other time, Stark, there's a lot of work to do." I reversed and left for the elevator. "You wasted the opportunity." Edward, if she means nothing to you, let it be clear that she means a lot to me. Stop hurting our mate." Star

CALIANAS POV.I gritted my teeth in anger as I cupped my face into my palms. I hit my feet against the floor as the recollection of my encounter with Can Dance resurfaced. I hated her to the brim, and I was well assured the feelings were mutual.A knock was placed on the door and threw me out of whatever fancy land I was submerged in earlier."Come in," I answered as it was pushed open, startled. I jumped to my feet as my eyes darted across the room. I swallowed hard at the sight of him; his arms were crossed over each other.He didn't seem so pleased to see me, but I had avoided him for as long as I could as well. I knew I was angry at how he had spoken to me earlier on. I didn't like that he hid his daughter from me, but I felt my head hard against my chest in his sight."What brings you here, Alpha Edward?." I asked, but my voice remained low, and although my blood pressure had spiked, I kept my actions under control."Do I really have to answer that?." He asked in a curt manner. I

CALIANAS POV."Please, I'm sorry. Let me go!" I pleaded, but nothing happened. I'm yanked by the hair as I tremble, the knife aimed at my heart."You should have known your place," she mutters to me before the knife is plunged deep into my heart as she lets out a hysterical laughter.I sat up in bed as I awoke; my eyes were open, my knees felt weak, and my whole body trembled. I wiped off the beads of sweat that formed on my head. I looked around and then to my chest. I traced my hand carefully around it, and I was right—it was nothing but a nightmare.I rose from bed with a sigh. Something bad was about to happen. I had no reason to say or think such a thing, but I felt it deep down and into my bones. It wasn't right with me. There was no reason for a nightmare about Candace, and I made sense. Besides, she was wrong, and I was right. As much as I hated that she was with Edward, I had not said anything about that. I merely corrected her for having spoken to me in that manner with her
