All Chapters of Mated To Two, Marked By One : Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Luca's PovShe isn't waking up! I've been standing beside her for hours, and she isn't moving. I called the doctor, who said she suffered from a panic attack and shock. She's been acting out of place for some time—I know that, and I decided to talk to her about it, but I did not want to rush her into anything.I needed Samantha to open up to me willingly. I am ready to wait as long as she needs. But right now, looking at her…I realize how much of a fool I have been. I shouldn't have had that stupid party. I shouldn't have put her in that situation again!I held her hands and squeezed them softly. Please, baby, wake up. I promise I won’t put you through that again."She's going to be fine," my sister said as she walked over to me by the bed. After Samantha fainted, Melissa helped me carry her back upstairs, and the pack doctor was called. Annoyed, I may have spoken to the guests and dispersed the party."You don't know that," I answered.Melissa sighed and placed a supportive hand on m

Samantha’s PovWhat exactly do I have that she wants? Is the question I have been asking myself ever since Mikala left me alone in my room. She told me everything, and I couldn’t help but take pity on her.Who is Annette, and what is she doing here in Silver Rose?“What are you thinking about?” Luca said, startling me out of my thoughts.“Oh, it’s nothing!”He looked at me with a quizzical expression on his face. “Okay…”I haven’t told him anything about what happened yesterday. I’ll give it some time to settle and for me to find out more about Annette. The moon goddess warned me to be careful, especially with people close by. It's not that I don't trust Luca, I do now. But I want to be certain about Annette and her plans. I don't want to bring him into any of this without valid information. “Don’t you like the food?”“I do.” We were at the dining table, eating breakfast with Melissa present. It was weird, as usual, but this time she did not look at me with disdain—or maybe hatred li

Samantha’s PovAfter our time at the cabin, Luca and I headed back to the castle the following day. His words still lingered in my head.I have so much food for thought. Today, however, I am going to start with phase one of my plan, which is to visit Mikala and see how she is doing. After our talk in my room the other day, she had retired to her home and entrusted our secret to me; now it was just left for me to act on it.I arrived at the house and opened the tiny gate, letting myself walk in onto the front porch. The house looked neat from the outside, with neatly cut grass. I knocked on the door, and Mikala’s face popped out.“Hi! You came.” She smiled at me, and the warm greeting loosened my nerves a bit.“I did.” I smiled back.“Well, come on in.” I entered, and my nose caught the smell of freshly grilled meat and steamed potatoes.“I was just making breakfast. I hoped you could join us.” I took in the sitting room. It was small, with two wide windows allowing ventilation. The ki

Samantha’s Pov “For once, you would shut up, and that disgusting face would be out of the way,” she said as she approached me.I moved back, supporting myself on my hands and knees—basically crawling toward the wall.“I've always wondered why Duncan treasured you so much, you know? What did you have that made him love you and that filthy woman so much? I tried every tactic in the book, but he told me he chose you because both you and that filthy woman are his family.”“Please stop,” I begged, and she laughed hysterically.She reached where I was bent and curled against the wall for some sort of protection. A smug smile spread across her face as she brought the rod up to her face.“So I planned with Rick to kill them. I didn't want to kill Duncan because I loved him, I truly did,” she said, as if confirming it.“When we went to that seer, Barnabas, he told us that you were the true Luna and that you came with great power. I didn't want to believe it until I saw what you did one day at

Samantha’s Pov He was here. My Luca was here for me. He came to save me because he is my knight in shining armor.But I don't trust Annette, and although she didn't have the rank like Luca, she had more years on him, which meant her strength could match his. Our packs were quite different from the others. Even if she was a Councilman's daughter, she wasn't an omega, which meant her age could give her more strength. But that didn't mean she would be able to defeat him.The Alpha King is always the strongest. I was just scared for him; he didn't look well, and I couldn't help but fear. As she took another blow he threw at her, Annette stumbled backward, her back colliding with the wall.Luca straightened and tucked his hands into his pockets, as if unaffected, but I could see he was in pain. His movements were slower, and his eyes tightened with each step he took.He grabbed Annette by the neck and lifted her so that her feet barely touched the ground. In a swift movement, he flung her
