Lahat ng Kabanata ng Cruel Fate: Chained To The Alpha : Kabanata 71 - Kabanata 80

Jaselyn's POVBy 7:50, we were finally done. I thanked everyone for a job well done before returning to my room.I was sweaty from all the work so I decided to take a shower. After that, I wore the dress I had selected for the occasion. It's a black mermaid dress embedded with rhinestones with a slit in the middle. It was the perfect dress to make me look elegant but not steal the limelight from Isla.I brushed my hair out and curled the ends with a flat iron before styling it into a half up crown braid. After that, it was some light make-up. Taking a look in the mirror, I'm happy with the results and ready to make some good connections.When I take a look at the clock, it's already 8:40AM. Which leaves only 20 minutes for the official party to start.I should check in with the kitchen to see if everything is in order then join the party.Arriving at the kitchen, I find the place in a bit of a disarray and then find out that Ziarre lost an earring. They're diamond earrings and it's pa

Jaselyn's POVNo, this has gone way beyond speculation. I need to get to the bottom of this. To find out who's lying and who's hiding things. I just have to know.“Do you really expect me to take your word for it?” I throw the question at him, my expression hardening.“No, but I'm willing to prove it any way you want me to. I'll drag Isla here right now and ask her the truth about this so-called pregnancy. I'm pretty sure she only did this for attention.” He replied resolutely and I was satisfied with the decision.It would be wise not to confront her publicly. Although I'm still suspicious of Zane and I'm not yet sure of the whole situation, I don't want our Pack to be seen in a bad light.If the Alpha accuses his Luna of infidelity right in front of everyone, it would be glaring signs of discord and weakness in our Pack.And I know for a fact that there are people just waiting for an opening to exploit. We already have our hands full with the possibility of Alpha Ezra turning agains

Jaselyn's POVThe doctor handed the envelope over to Zane who opened it and took out a few reports. He skimmed through them quickly.“This means nothing. These reports could have easily been faked. I know you, Isla, I'm aware of the lengths you're willing to go just so you won't lose. I've forgiven you for a lot of things thus far but you've completely crossed the line with this one.” Zane said with a scathing expression, throwing the papers to the ground.“How dare you speak to my daughter in this manner?!” Alpha Ezra shouted as his fist connected with Zane's face, snapping his head sideways.“Zane!” I called and rushed to his side, he placed a reassuring hand on mine before turning back to Alpha Ezra with a defiant smirk, blood seeping down his mouth.“It's a shame, isn't it? The fact that you think of yourself as a proud and respectable Alpha but you can't stand to hear the truth.I hold so much respect for you and the things you did for me in the past, I might never be able to re

Jaselyn's POVI stood up to my feet and took a deep breath.“That was intense. Are you OK?” Nila questioned and I nodded.“Hm.”“You really went all out, you were so overwhelmed by anger that I couldn't even reach you. If Hadrian hadn't shown up when he did, you really were prepared to kill Isla, weren't you?” Nila asked rhetorically but I answered anyway.“Yes and I don't regret my decision. She deserves it, she crossed the line this time. She tried to kill Ziarre.” I spoke defensively and for a moment, I couldn't tell if I was trying to convince her or myself.“But we don't know that, do we? She might be innocent and even if she's guilty, do you think it's our place to punish her? I'm not trying to act like a saint. Isla is a truly horrible person and she deserves to be punished but think about it, would you be able to live with yourself if you took her life?” Nila asked and I winced, knowing she was right.“What am I supposed to do then? Just let her continue to ruin my life? She w

Jaselyn's POV15 minutes later, Rion walked out of the room with an expression I couldn't quite read. His lips remained in a tight line but he didn't seem sad or angry, his eyes didn't convey happiness or relief either. It was more……confusion, like he was trying to process something.I approached him. “How is she doing?” “You should go see for yourself. She's waiting for you.” He answered monotonously before going to take a seat.I sucked in a breath before walking into the room and closing the door behind me. My eyes watered when I saw her condition.She was hooked up to a ventilator and had several IVs attached.The sound of the vital signs monitor beeping was the only other thing I could hear aside from the crazy beating of my heart.I didn't know if I could take another step towards her without breaking into tears. Her eyes slowly opened but were heavy and remained droopy. She looked pale, parts of her neck almost bluish.“Jas….elyn….” Her voice was hoarse and sounded muffled ove
