All Chapters of TORN BETWEEN MATES: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

Aria’s POV There is silence as Xander leaves through the door. Something feels like it's breaking inside my chest. I want to find him and tell him what's happening to me, but how can I do that when I don't even understand it myself? Lena frowns deeply as she watches the door. She murmurs, "Okay, so that was bad," "Really bad." I take a deep breath. "He thinks I betrayed him." Lena pushes a hand through her hair and sighs. "Can you blame him? You just informed him that you previously chose a different man. I flinch. "I didn’t mean to" "I know that." Lena looks at me intently. However, Xander? He’s barely hanging on, Aria. He has been losing it ever since you passed out. You’re his match. To him, you are everything. My throat tightens. I am aware. I am aware. I squeeze my hands into fists. "I need to talk to him." Lena nods. "Good idea. Fix this before it gets worse." I toss the blanket off me and push myself to stand only for my legs to buckle. Lena lunges forward, grasping

Aria's POV The figure of Xander walking away fades into the hallway, leaving a heavy silence behind him. It makes my mind go crazy as I look at the empty doorway. The sadness, deception, and pain in his eyes were too much for him to bear. It makes no sense to me, so I want to run after him and tell him the same thing. But my feet feel stuck on the ground. Lena sharply breathes out next to me, her arms crossed tightly. "Well, that went worse than I expected." I wrap my arms around myself and try to keep my hands from shaking. "I did not do something wrong." That man was someone I didn't even know. "Doesn’t matter." Lena shakes her head. "Xander doesn’t think with logic when it comes to you. He thinks with his heart, and right now, that heart is hurting." I swallow hard, guilt clawing at my chest. "I need to fix this." "Then go after him." I take a deep breath and push past my reluctance. My legs still feel weak from everything I’ve been through, but I force myself to move

Aria’s POVThe room is filled with power. I can feel it pushing on my skin like heavy wind. Xander stands at the broken entry, his golden eyes burning with rage. Across from him, the crimson-eyed man watches quietly, like he expected this.Me? I’m caught in the middle.The crystal glows beside me. My mind is still spinning from everything I just saw...every memory that came rushing back. The trees, the fire, the vows. Selene. That was me. I remember now. Not everything, but enough. And now, my two mates...past and present...are face to face.The air crackles. My wolf is restless. My heart is torn. Xander steps inside slowly, eyes locked on the guy in black. “You touched her.” The crimson-eyed man tilts his head. “And you marked her. Looks like we’re even.”“I should kill you,” Xander growls. “You can try,” the man says with a cruel smile.“Stop!” I scream, standing up. My legs are weak, but my voice comes out stronger than I thought it could.Both of them turn to look at me. I walk fo

Aria’s POVThe world around me fades. Everything goes dark, but I’m still awake. Still living. Still shaking.The girl’s voice rings in my ears. “Help me… Mommy.”I stare into the dark, trying to move, but my body refuses. My heart pounds so loud I can’t hear anything else.Did I hear that right?Mommy?That child… she looked just like me. Same eyes. Same hair. Even the same rock I carry around my neck.How is that possible? I don’t have a child. Do I?Xander drops beside me, holding my shoulders. “Aria! What happened? Are you hurt?”I blink at him, fighting to speak. My lips move, but no words come out.Lucien kneels on my other side. His face is tight. “Morrana showed you something, didn’t she?”I nod slowly, still staring at the forest where the little girl stood. But now, there’s nothing. Just trees and mist.“She showed me a child…” I whisper. “She said… she called me ‘Mommy.’”Xander stiffens. “What?”I look up at him with wide eyes. “She had my face, Xander. She was holding my

Aria’s POVThe Mark of the Lost Moon still burns on my arm. It's like fire under my skin, pulsing with every beat of my heart…I can’t take my eyes off it.A crescent moon surrounded by three small flames and I don’t know what it means, but I know one thing…everything has changed.Victor has my daughter. He said she won’t remember me next time. That thought cuts through my heart like a blade.Xander kneels beside me, breathing hard. “Are you hurt?” I shake my head. “Not in the way that matters.”Lena helps me up. Her face is pale, her voice tight. “We need to get out of here. That portal…whatever it was…is closed. There’s no way to follow them now.”I look at the spot where Victor disappeared. Gone.Again.My fists clench. The anger inside me is too big to hold back…I let out a scream so loud, it shook the air…A flash of silver light bursts from my chest, hitting the walls of the ruined palace.The vines shrivel.The shadows hiss and back away. My power is growing… but it’s wild. I can
