บททั้งหมดของ Mated to Three Handsome Nightmares: บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 20

Lyra's POVNikky was tall, like 7 feet high, taller than most men. She looked more like a man than a woman.She had the tattoo of a serpent on her neck, and her face looked rough.The way she walked scared the wits out of me.Then she paused as soon as she reached where I was.She fixed her gaze on me. “I’m going to avenge my sister’s death,” she said, “I know you killed her, Raven.”I couldn’t speak. My throat locked up, and all I could do was stare as she turned and strode onto the field, her braid swinging like a horse's tail. Killed her sister? The words kept playing in my head.What kind of life had Ravenna lived? And why was I the one stuck paying for it?Orion’s voice snapped me from my thoughts as he continued through the speakers.“And now, I present to you, Princess Ravenna!”My heart sank. Ravenna. Not Lyra. The name felt like a chain around my neck. I froze, my feet glued to the tunnel floor.The crowd started cheering me up, but it died down slowly when they didn't see

Lyra's POVI snapped my eyes closed like a door slammed shut, bracing for death.I had expected it sooner, but it lingered, stalking me like a wild cat before closing the distance to take me beyond.How does death feel like? Some say it's a quick sleep, painless. Others said death is faster than time, hits you within the twinkling of an eye, but I had waited for seconds now, no transition, just silence.I had expected Nikki's claws to be on my throat by now, slicing it open like a blade on paper.Perhaps the moon goddess had, in her benevolence, teleported me into another body again.I opened my eyes, willing to see why the beast didn't make good on her death promise.Just then, a pool of blood was splashed across my face, the smell of iron filled my senses, but the blood wasn't mine.My mouth opened widely in utter shock, my breath came in hard, although my vision remained blurred, but I could see an object rolling like a ball towards me.As soon as my sight cleared, my eyes widened

Lyra's POVIf a witch or a priest had told me about my future, perhaps prophesied like the church folks used to say, that I would somehow survive the battle against Nikki.I wouldn't believe it, but afterwards, I might definitely believe in miracles.But one thing is for sure: one supreme being doesn't want me dead, at least not yet. First, I was reincarnated in another body, next I narrowly escaped death again, only God knows what lies ahead.The time was 1 pm, but the sun was perhaps grieving a great fighter like Nikki to show up; it almost felt like the Earth was mourning Nikki's death.It cried thunder, and sobbed rain as we got to the venue for the burial. It was a big field where, according to Keto, dead werewolves from Orion's pack were buried."Are you sure the burial will hold?" I asked, turning to face Keto in the car as the driver slowly parked in the field. "The rain is heavy."Keto chuckled, more like a light scoff. "You weren't afraid to face death in the arena, and her

Lyra's POVThe first thing that popped up in my head as I eased back into consciousness was the sound of heavy rainfall.I opened my eyes, looked around. Where's everyone? I muttered under my breath.I was still in the field where Nikki was buried, at the exact same spot where I had passed out.My clothes were completely soaked by the rain, and I couldn't stop myself from shaking so much that my teeth vibrated.Why did they leave me here alone in the field, under the rain and without help?Did they leave me here to die? I thought within, or perhaps they thought I had died.I tried getting up from the ground, my eyes scanned for any covering that could shield me from the rain, but I was too weak to stand up.Then I tried crawling, and that was when it dawned on me that I was paralyzed: I could move my head, but not my body.Fear gripped me. If nobody comes out here to help, I'd probably die out of cold.My gaze turned to the direction where Nikki had been buried, but the coffin was no

Lyra's POV"Why are you both looking at me like you've got something to hide?" Keto asked, his eyeballs rolling to the left at me, and to the right at Kira."Don't fucking play that card on me," Kira replied. "You're the one hiding behind the door like a spying criminal." Kira shot back as she eyed him from head to toe.From the way Keto was looking, I knew he heard some of our conversations, and my heart wouldn't stop the fast beats.I kept my gaze fixed on him for any hint he knew the truth about Ravenna and I, but so far his face looked neutral, like he didn't hear that part, or he was simply good at hiding it.Keto raised his hand up in mock surrender, "Yeah," he admitted, "You're right, I was at the door for a while.""Why?" My voice in tandem with Kira's voice as we asked him.He didn't say a word, he just strolled into the ward like he owns the fucking hospital."I needed to be sure it was the right ward before knocking." He said, his tone playful.It was a lie, I knew it, Kir
