Semua Bab Marked by betrayal, bound to the Lycan Lord.: Bab 21 - Bab 30

Xena’s POVIt had been months since I last saw Lady Megan. I wasn’t even sure if she still thought about me or even remembered who I was. I had sent her letters of invitation…twice and there was no response. Susan was the one who stopped me. She explained the importance of dignity…she was right, sending more letters would only make me look desperate but the waiting was killing me.Finally after what felt like eternity, Lady Megan invited me to her house and we also discovered that those letters never got to her. Someone was watching us…and pray the moon goddess that it isn't Kael. The car ride felt long, maybe because I had too many thoughts in my head. I inhaled deeply, watching that city as we drove past. I wasn't really familiar with the human world or the werewolves world, I was a loner who didn't have any friends so I knew almost nothing about the world. I stared blankly at the world outside, admiring the beautiful faces on the billboard, the city filled with life as the hum

Kael’s POVI grabbed Xena’s arm and pulled her out of the room. She struggled to free myself from my grip, but I didn’t let go. Her eyes were wide and filled with fear, her soft sobs becoming music in my ears. We walked through the cold stone halls of the palace in silence. I could feel her heart racing just from the way her feet kept stumbling. The maids moved out of the way immediately they saw us. None of them dared to talk. “Please,” Xena pleaded. “Please let go of me, please, I beg you.”I ignored her, increasing my pace. We reached the gate at the back of the palace. The guards opened it without a word as I led her to the center of the field. Weapons were laid out neatly on a long table. Pistols, rifles, blades—all tools needed to carve fear in her mind. She froze when she saw them, her hand unconsciously going to her stomach.“You think I’m going to kill your child?” I asked, in a calm tone.Her lips pressed into thin line as she sniffed. I stared at her for a while wo

Kael’s POVI stood frozen for a moment, the room buzzing around me. My mind went blank, trying to process what I was seeing.How the hell did she leave the house? What happened to the securities I placed around her? All my men were ten times stronger, faster, and more vigilant than most average bodyguards. So how did an impure wolf sneak past them? Well, I guess I know the first thing I would be doing when I get back home and trust me, it's more than firing them. Xena walked towards me like she had every right to be here and there was something off about her. I wasn't the one to believe in fairytale so the most logical explanation to what is happening here is that — this isn't Xena. But that was a lie, this was the real Xena, as difficult as it was, it was the real Xena. My eyes darted to the empty glass I dropped on the table. I wasn't the type to get drunk easily— I don't think I have ever been drunk so yes, I was fucking very much sober, so I wasn't hallucinating…but I badly wis

Xena’s POVThe second I got into the car, I screamed, kicking the seat like it was my mortal enemy. Even I couldn't believe what just happened. My hands started shaking, my heart pounded, and I couldn’t stop breathing like I had just run a marathon. I slammed the door and sat there, frozen, then… I burst out laughing. Everything happened so fast that my brain couldn't process it. “What the hell did I just do?” I muttered to myself, laughing. I leaned forward, placing my elbows on my knees, my hands digging into my hair. “You’re so stupid, Xena,” I muttered. “So damn stupid. Who the hell offers their life to Kael Noirfang like it’s a damn candy bar?” I snorted. “You want to die? You really wanna die that bad?”“Fuck, he is going to kill me, I just sold my soul to the devil,” I paused, my mind going back to Chloe and Jason. They were the cause of all this. I swear if I end up dying without getting my revenge, I would haunt them as ghosts. That was a fucking promise. They don't des

Xena’s POVI just stood there, completely frozen, my throat tightened immediately she walked in. Chloe was the last person I expected to see at this phase of my life, in fact I wasn't ready to face her, but fear wasn't the only emotion flowing through my veins. I felt my anger flaring up, even though I don't have the strength to tear her to pieces I still wanted to give it a shot. I could still hear her mocking laughter as she rode on Jason's dick. I could still hear her taunt and how could I forget…the neighbor who raped me was like a friend to her. I inhaled deeply, trying to control my emotions even though I didn't want to but I had no choice, Kael was still here and the last thing I wanted was for him to see me weak. Chloe walked in like she owned the building, like her perfume could buy her a seat next to royalty. I hated the way her scent filled the air, I hated the way her red short gown hugged her body revealing her perfect curves, I hated the way the sunlight made her sk
