All Chapters of Secretly Bound to My Mate: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

DarienShe really managed to surprise me. After she stayed there and became part of the Ashwood Howler pack, now I hear she has become that man’s Luna.Their wedding is about to be held, and it has drawn the attention of the other alphas. They act as if it’s something extraordinary, and indeed, worthy of celebration.They bring gifts to show they’re on their side, but in truth, they’re only waiting for the right moment to strike.“Move aside.”Letting Selena fall onto the sofa, she had no understanding of the situation I was in right now. It was a complete mess.After being humiliated like that, and suffering the loss of my wealth, that woman should have been miserable. I’ll make sure she truly suffers. Her life should not be better than it was with me.Why is it like this…?“...Darien… you’ve changed. You’re hurting me.”Looking at her trembling voice made me realize what I had just done. This woman, who had always helped me, had made me into such an extraordinary Alpha.She had a sw

IrwenThey were very different compared to before. They no longer ordered me around all the time, and I could tell they were careful with their behavior. I was sure they were deeply afraid of Kairos. It was a little sad, but I understood. I was only an outsider here, someone who had only recently gone through a divorce.So, I chose to act normal. Even though it felt a little uncomfortable, I wanted them to care only about the abilities I showed them.After working nearly the whole day, the tasks were finished, and I wanted nothing more than to rest. The amount of information I gathered today left me astonished.There was a huge difference between managing the Nightail Pack and the Ashwood Howlers. The information here was far more abundant, and there were many more factors to consider, not just the central territory, but also the others, including the allies.For several years Rowan had been handling these matters, and I could say he was truly remarkable.“I’ll be going home now, Rowa

IrwenThe tea in my cup was nearly gone, and though its floral fragrance was delightful, I felt uncomfortable.Remaining composed before that woman, I gazed at her. It had been more than ten minutes since I sat across from her, yet no words had been exchanged between us.If she was the one who had invited someone else to chat, shouldn’t she be the one to carry the conversation well?I drew in a breath as I set down the cup I was holding. “Are you not going to speak, Miss Maelina?”Her long index finger gently caressed the glass she held as she smiled. “I was only observing you, Luna. You are truly extraordinary.”I returned her smile. I was certain it wasn’t a genuine one. “Yes.” I replied curtly. Soon, I would have to leave her.“You’ve become a luna twice, and in different packs. Isn’t that in such a short span of time, Luna?”This time my smile turned into a small laugh, leaving her bewildered. As I rose to my feet, she was startled by what had just happened.A pressured sigh escap

IrwenWith the situation as it is now, I don’t really know what’s going through his mind. I just don’t want to end up thinking in a one-sided way and then getting hurt because of it.Honestly, I’ve learned a lot from everything that’s happened in my life before. Remembering what I went through back then, which ended up making people judge me so harshly. In fact, I was surprised when I read the message he sent me.So, that’s really how he thinks of me, saying that I’m nothing more than some kind of statue when I’m with him. That I always act like I can handle everything on my own.Apparently, that hurt his pride, which is why he judged everything I did so negatively. Yet all this time, I’ve been burying my longing and my spoiled side just for him, thinking that if I showed it, it might only burden him.But, yeah… from the start he really was awful, with awful thoughts. From the beginning, it wasn’t me that he liked. So I understand now why he treated me so badly, it’s because he always

IrwenDuring the preparations for my wedding, I tried to handle every uncomfortable detail as efficiently as possible. Sometimes Rowan told me that I didn’t need to work for a while, but I ignored him.This is my second marriage. Comparing the past and the present, I can clearly say that after seeing everything Kairos has prepared, this wedding is far better than the one Darien arranged, when we married because of a declared fated bond.It’s truly extraordinary, and looking at it leaves me in awe.I walked down the red carpet, my heart beating faster and faster. I never expected that having a wedding born from an agreement would make me this nervous.Today, Kairos and I would become husband and wife. He had always told me that he would treat me well, I knew it was because he had his own purpose in mind.I stepped closer, and at last, he greeted me with a smile.Moments later, we had spoken our vows.“With this, the two of you are now officially husband and wife.”Everything went well,
