Chapter Thirty-OneMate!/-Isla-/The next few seconds happened so fast, I barely registered them.One minute Roman’s lips were still lingering on mine, his breath warm, his scent everywhere, his touch etched into my skin like a brand, and the next, Carlos was there.Yelling. Furious.“What the fuck, man?!” Carlos barked, shoving Roman hard. “What the hell are you doing to her, you disgusting pervert!”I blinked, body heavy and slow, still tangled in that kiss, my limbs betraying me. My lips were swollen, my chest rising and falling in rapid bursts. I could barely sit up.Roman didn’t say a word.He didn’t need to.Because when Carlos shoved him again, harder this time, something shifted.Something snapped.I didn't know if it was the alcohol messing with my head but the air around us felt denser and I could smell his anger. The blatant fury. Roman’s entire body went rigid like a coiled spring, and his head turned slowly toward Carlos, his seafoam eyes no longer calm, no longer contr

Chapter Thirty-TwoThe only way out/-Isla-/This weekend was definitely the longest weekend of my life. I didn't understand the level of damage Roman inflicted on Carlos until the next day. He was in severe pains, most of his bones were broken and he was running temperature. The doctors have been actively attending to him last night while I was passed out, drunk out of my mind. “How is he?” I asked the nurse. “Shouldn't his wounds have healed up by now?”“Most of the bruises are gone. We cannot say same for internal injuries though. He is very lucky to still be alive,” the pack doctor responded. My eyes watered. This was all my fault! How could I have been so stupid? What was I even thinking? Kissing Roman like that! In the open too!“Please help him as much as you can, doc,” I pleaded. “I need him to be fine please.”“We are doing our best. He will be fine,” He assured me.That was all I needed to hear. Now, I needed to have a serious talk with Roman. Why would he beat up my boy

Chapter Thirty-fourA different side/-Isla-/Carlos was finally awake. I had to skip work to look after him.It's not like my boss was treating me well or anything and the CEO was a jerk so I didn't care what either of them thought. The worse they could do was fire me after all. “How are you feeling?” I asked him but he continued staring at me strangely, like he couldn't remember a thing that happened. “Carlos?” I touched him on the shoulder hoping to bring him back from wherever he was.“Isla…”It felt like he was seeing me for the first time. “Are you okay?” I smiled happily. “Yes, yes, I'm okay. I'm so glad you're okay. I was so worried about you.” “Was I out for long?” A wince fell off his lips in between the question as he tried to sit up. I held him down.“You don't have to get up,” I told him. His wounds were still healing, although slowly. I was happy he was conscious nonetheless.He stared at me for a few seconds before caressing my face gently. “I'm sorry,” he apologi

Chapter Thirty-SixLove Drives People Crazy/-Manda-/“Did you do it?” I could see from the way his eyes widened and lips trembled. He was pale, terrified and definitely looked traumatised.That alone was enough answer. I squealed, flying straight into his arms.“Yessss! I knew you could do it!” I squealed. “This is the best news I've heard in five years. You buried her didn't you? Tell me, tell me, tell me…”“The… back of the palace…” I almost didn't hear him there but I was happy when I picked it up. As long as she was buried, there was no way he would ever find her. He would think she was missing when in fact she was long dead. I would finally get my husband back!Aaron pulled away from me. For someone who just buried someone alive, he was quite whiny. I stared at him.“What's wrong, shrimp? Are you regretting fulfilling the desire of your mate?” I hissed. His expression fell. “I… I just wish you didn't have to struggle so much. I am here, I don't know how else to prove to yo

Chapter Thirty-EightApologize /-Isla-/I jerked up covered in sweat, my chest hitting hard against my ribcage as I panicked. All I could see was that box where I was trapped with nothing but darkness.“Awake already, princess.” That voice…I blinked rapidly and the veil of darkness started tearing through to reveal my surroundings.I wasn't in the box anymore. I was in… “The royal ward!” I gasped. “Oh goddess, I'm not dead!” “Of course you're not, princess. You're mine, after all…”I turned in the direction of the voice and saw Roman sitting on a chair just by the edge of the bed. My body moved on its own before I even realized and the next second I was lunging myself into his arms. It was a dangerous leap but for some reason I trusted that Roman wouldn't let me get hurt. Just as I thought, he caught me in his arms like a little girl. None of it mattered to me as I threw my arms around him, sobbing. He found me. He really found me. Tears streamed down my cheeks as I sobbed.
