All Chapters of The Alpha’s chosen one : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Violet's pov “Did he give a name?” I asked icily.“No, my lady. Just said he must speak to either you or Alpha Xaden.” Danya retorted.I stood, heart racing now. I remembered Xaden telling me about the village head meeting and their need for a village chief--- but if they could send a messenger all the way here, it could only mean nothing has been resolved. Not unless it concerned me. Or the pack.I followed Danya quickly through the hall, past the servants and the guards who bowed stiffly. When I reached the main courtyard, I saw Xavier already walking towards me.Just then, I saw Xaden striding towards the gate, his face hard.He looked tired. His shoulders were tense beneath his dark tunic, and his eyes had the same haunted look I’d seen too many times recently. But even through the fatigue, my heart still stuttered at the sight of him.Goodness, I loved him.But something was diff

Violet’s POV I didn’t even know why my legs had carried me to his office.After what he did to me yesterday, I Shouldn't be here.But here I was...Somewhere inside me--- beneath all the bruises, all the bitter silences, all the cold mornings--- I still believed that something in Xaden might be worth saving. That maybe, if I walked in and reminded him of who we were… of who he used to be… he might look at me and come to his senses.But gods, I was wrong.So very wrong.The moment I pushed open that door and saw her, sprawled across his lap like some crowned victory, all breath left my lungs. It didn't creep away--- it collapsed out of me like dying stars. My legs gave way under me.My heart didn’t shatter. No, it ripped--- like parchment set aflame.He saw me. His eyes met mine.And still, he did not stop.He looked me in the eyes and kept going, pounding her li

Violet's povA baby? Or did I hear wrong."A baby?" I whispered again."Yes." Mama answered, hugging me tightly. "You're expecting, child."My eyes glistened with unshed tears as a certain level of excitement welled up inside of me."Is he aware?" I asked softly."No." Mama said brusquely."Good. I don't want him to find out just yet. I want to keep it from him." I said.They nodded in acquiescence.I felt a sudden burst of energy that had been lost for the past weeks.A child?I was going to be a mother?Xaden's child.The thought filled me with so much joy and pleasure that I grabbed the soup bowl from Rose's hands and started eating. They stared at me in amazement. I suddenly had a huge appetite for more food and requested for more.I was going to be a mother.I was going to shield my child.It's no wonder I've been feeling dizzy and nauseated for the past two months. I remember Xaden noticing how my breast were bigger than the first time we made love.First time we made love...

Violet’s POVThe cold stone floor pressed against my knees as I scrubbed yet another stubborn stain from the kitchen floor. My fingers ached, and a dull weariness settled deep in my bones. But I didn't stop. I couldn't stop. The baby inside me was growing stronger every day, and with every heartbeat, I was reminded that I was not alone.Mira’s shadow loomed over me like a dark cloud. It had become a very disturbing habit of hers. It was just as though I was relishing my experience all over again with the Blue Moon. Only that it was horrible. Always had been. There was nothing delightful about the experience. Her presence suffocates this place. Her cruel words and cold commands echoed in my mind. And I was her major target. “You’ll stay in the kitchen. You’ll know your place.” She always reminded me. "Then when I ask for you, don't dare question me." She finished, reminding me of that day four days ago where she had asked me to scrub the stairs. But I refused to be enslaved in this p

Mira's pov "That was a family heirloom. You can't just lose it." My mother voiced sharply.We stood inside my room after dinner to have a chat before she retired to the bed chambers I had prepared for her."I'll find it, mother." I said."How did you even lose it? It was passed down to me by my mother. And It had been in the family for many generations, Mira." Mother persisted."Do not worry about it. I know where it is." I said again, trying to reassure her."I'm trying not to worry, Mira. But the MirrorBlade wields so much power that it could be used against our pack. The Mirror Blade was infused with so much energy that it could even destroy when it fell into the wrong hands." She said, "I think we should get your father involved so he'd help us.""No." I snapped. "I said I'd find it."She gave me a quizzical look and dropped the subject. "Okay." She said,"So tell me, how were you able to accomplish thi
