Lahat ng Kabanata ng Brother-in-law Is My Chosen Mate: Kabanata 51 - Kabanata 60

CHLOEI walked out of the pantry slowly, like a mummified corpse. I couldn’t listen in anymore.Sally was waiting for me outside, hoping to come help me with dinner preparations. “Ma’am, did you find anything we could use.” I walked past her like she was a piece of furniture which elicited a confounded look on her face.“Ma’am…ma’am…” she continued to call out to me hoping to eventually gain my attention, but I kept walking in a daze, her voice drowning in the avalanche of my thoughts.The single most dominating thought was how stupid and gullible I was. I had begun to think that Vincent had changed, that I could finally have a good life… even at the expense of Mark’s and my mother’s life. Why did I think that Vincent could be anything other than the monster he already was?It turned out he was even more conniving than I could even imagine.Sally kept muttering words that sounded like she was several kilometers away. They came off to me like a

CHLOEThere was a car blocking the road up front. It had its hood up like it was having some troubles. The road was mostly empty, with no cars coming or going. I was already out of Drewsy and I wasn’t as nervous as I was before. Besides Nobody would have noticed I was gone yet and my flight wasn’t due for another couple hours.“Honey, stay here…and lock the doors.”, I whispered to Mackenzie who was already dozing off. “Mummy will be right back.”I waited till she was fully awake before I stepped out to check the car out.There was a man who had his head buried under the hood, probably trying to fix whatever was wrong with it.“…hello..” I tried to get his attention when I got close to the black salon car.“Do you mind?... you’re blocking the road.”The man didn’t even raise his head out from under the hood to regard my presence.“Hey… I’m talking to you” I reiterated, a little louder this time.It didn’t matter as he kept busy with the car.“Hey!...” I tapped him this time, finally g

CHLOEI curled up on the damp bed, the only relatively comfortable spot in the room, nursing my bruised chest and stomach. Vincent had come in a couple of hours ago and I had attacked him after managing to break off my shackles. He hadn’t expected it. He was still stronger and faster than me and gained the upper hand before long.Nonetheless, I felt a little satisfied that I was able to draw blood and put a mark on his smug face.Except he didn’t look so smug when he came in, he seemed troubled. I couldn’t understand why and I didn’t think about it at the time. My intent was just to hurt him as much as I could and maybe I’ll be lucky enough to kill him, consequences be damned. But now, I couldn’t help but be a little concerned.

VINCENTAs I drove to the company building in the middle of town, I thought of creative ways to put the fear back into the board members. Some of them were members of the pack from older families and it would have taken means that were a little more than conventional to make them remember their place. Very soon though, after the ritual is completed, there would be no need for all of this. Every single person in Drewsy, both human or werewolf, would bow to me of their own volition.As I walked into the building, everyone greeted me as they should. I mostly ignored them and headed straight to the elevator. Ronald my new beta ran up to meet me, nervousness spilling out of his suit as he came closer.He may have been a pretty strong werewolf but he wasn’t accustomed to being my beta and handling all my dealings. It was expected and I had planned to put him through all of this. But now was not the time.“What's the update, Ronald?” I asked as the elevator doors closed shut in front of us.

CHLOEI stirred awake and heard what I could only describe as death throes and hard falls of bodies on the even harder ground. No sooner did they fall than a strong force tried to break down the iron door. At the second blast, the door visibly contorted in an irregular shape. Fear coursed through my very veins at this new force. Could Vincent have decided it was time for him to take my powers and was done waiting for whatever he was waiting for? In a moment the door was blown almost completely off its hinges and I saw the ‘strong force’. “Chloe, I’m here now. I’m here my Love.” Mark said he picked me up and held me close in his arms. I cried and felt him to see if he was real. He was. “Mark, are you here?” I questioned him with sobs of relief.“I’m here Chloe. I’m here. It’s alright now. Everything is going to be alright my love.” Mark comforted me the way only he could. By being there for me. “I’m sorry, Mark. I’m so sorry. You warned me not to and I didn’t l
