All Chapters of Betrayal, Love and Revenge: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

STILL TWO MONTHS AGO…ASPEN VESPER“Y-your majesty,” Lance's cowardly voice filled the room, “s-should I start talking?”“Do you need a special invitation?” Raven sneered. “Tell me what I have to do to get what I want this instant. I have to get rid of her soon.”“Oh…okay.” Alpha Lance truly looked pitiful, but Aspen could not find it in her to be sorry for him. He put himself in that situation and must deal with the consequences. “So… uhm… so according to what I uhm, read, when the goddess gifts a werewolf, the only way to get rid of the powers is to activate them. The moment they are activated, the blood of the person’s mate must be poured over their head to get the powers out.”“Mate?” Raven was perplexed. “But she doesn’t have a mate, does she?” She fiercely looked down at Aspen. “Are you still mates with Kailin? Or were you two fucking behind my back?”“We rejected our mate bond,” Aspen calmly responded. Lance’s response gave her extra

KAILIN BLACKWOODThe moment they walked into the grand building, Aspen’s scent toyed with Kailin’s nostrils and his soul was pushed to tears. He breathed quite shakily to hide the sudden feeling from the people walking with him.“In case you are curious,” Raven’s voice seemed to mock him, “that very spot is where Aspen bade goodbye to our precious world.”He followed the woman’s stretched hand, and his soul was instantly crushed. He quickly shut his eyes before he could start to imagine the cruel things the Lycan Queen did to his mate.“I know you’ll miss her, so I kept a beautiful picture of her in your room,” Raven continued to torture Kailin. “Lance made sure to enlarge it; that way, you will never forget about the woman you let go.”Kailin sighed and hardened his jaws. He didn’t wish to show weakness in front of his enemies, so he stifled his emotions and acted strong. Then, he asked, “Where is my room? I need to wash up.”“Of course.” A

KAILIN BLACKWOODWhoever it was that was dragging him didn’t intend to show him mercy. His head hit the ground many times, and the path he was being dragged against pierced his skin quite sinisterly. Kailin could not speak, nor could he open his eyes to see what was going on.So, he remained in that state till the rough journey came to an end.“Get on your feet!” A rough voice ordered.Kailin struggled with that, but once he found the strength to ignore the pains growing in his body, he stood straight and peeled his watery eyes open.“What is…?” His voice wasn’t audible enough to project his shock, but his eyes enlarged in surprise at the sight. Ahead, seas of people were standing, hunger and hopelessness written all over their faces. Kailin and the man who dragged him were standing on a high stage, and behind them was a huge screen that showed the stage to every person in the crowd.“Stay quiet and wait,” the man next to him commanded.

ASPEN VESPERFor a long time, all Aspen did was float in a space that was strange to her. Darkness became her friend for many, many hours, and within all that, she lost all hope of ever seeing the light of a good day. She gave up on finding a way out of the dark orbit, she decided to accept that she would never feel the comfort of her body or meet the people that mattered to her.But, no matter how much she gave up hope, her floating soul refused to cease existing. And this baffled Aspen a lot because she saw no end to the hell the Lycan Queen’s wicked tactics had pushed her to.That was until she was visited by the spirit of the Moon Goddess, who assured her that death was not the answer to leaving the state she was in.The deity, with calmness, told Aspen that the answer to finding freedom from that state was to search for her mate with her heart. She needed to find the line that still connected her soul to Kailin’s. And once the line takes her to where

ASPEN VESPER“No matter how much we try to sneak in, I am certain the Queen and her warriors have their eyes watching every corner of the country,” Kailin continued while Ezra brought out a huge map from a satchel he placed on one of the sofas in the room. “We are at further disadvantage because the Queen has lived in the packs way longer than us, and worse, she once ruled as a Lycan. There is no doubt she will know every hiding place.”“There has to be somewhere.” Rolis seemed to search his brain for answers.On her end, the only good hiding place Aspen knew was in the castle where the Lycan Queen resided. Surely, it would be somewhat foolish of her to suggest that they walk into that trap, but she did it anyway.“Uhm, I have somewhere in mind. But don’t bite me when I say where it is.”“As long as it is not under the roof of the Lycan Queen,” Ezra said. Aspen squeezed her lips and
