Semua Bab Rejected By My Mate, Claimed By His Enemy: Bab 1 - Bab 10

My tears poured down my face.Memories of being with Lance crashed into me like a tidal wave.I could still feel his arms wrapped around me, his warm breath tickling my ear as he whispered, "I love you so much." His eyes had been full of love, genuine and deep, or so I thought.I remembered the way he knelt in front of me, his voice trembling as he said, "Cassie, I can’t imagine a life without you." He looked so sincere."I can’t ever imagine hurting you. You’re the most important person in my life. You’re my first and only love."Those words used to be my comfort, my anchor. But now, I realized they were nothing but lies. Empty, cruel lies.All this time, he was just using me—because Arielle wasn’t around. I was just a stand-in, a distraction.And now, Arielle’s pregnant. The thought twisted in my chest, making it hard to breathe. Anger bubbled up inside me, hot and consuming. My hands curled into fists.No. I’m not letting things end like this!Fury pushed me forward. I stormed afte

“Make sure she’s okay!”I heard chaos around me. Voices. Movement. Panic. Everything felt like a blur until my eyelids fluttered open.The room was dimly lit, but I quickly noticed two figures arguing near the foot of the bed I was lying on. As my vision adjusted, my heart stopped for a second.It was my brother, Adrian.My chest tightened. He was still recovering from his recent attack, yet there he was, standing in front of me, visibly exhausted but determined. He looked like he had forced himself to come here.Across from him stood a healer, trying to calm him down. I struggled to sit up, but my body felt heavy, drained.I was inside a healer’s residence. The sterile smell, the faint chanting outside, the herbs on the shelf, everything was familiar yet foreign at the same time.That’s when everything came crashing back to me.I remembered now.I had bled out. I collapsed. I lost consciousness. And now... now I was here.A wave of dread swept over me.Could…I be pregnant?The though

Lance’s POVThe ceremony was finally over. I returned straight to the pack house, expecting to find Cassie waiting inside, just like she always did. Like a loyal dog.But before I could even reach the door, a familiar voice called out behind me.“Lance, where are you going?”I stopped walking and turned around. It was Arielle.I clenched my jaw. “What are you doing here? Why did you follow me?”She stepped closer, wearing that same smug expression she always had when she thought she was winning.“Are you seriously going back to her?” she asked. “I already announced to everyone that you're mine, and that I’m yours. You didn’t even stop me. That must mean something. It means you don’t care about her anymore, right? Wherever she is now, it doesn't matter to you.”I stared at her for a long moment before smirking widely.“You’re the only woman I’ve ever loved,” I said, my voice low but firm. “You’re the one I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. But I need Cassie beside me now.”Arie

“You shouldn’t be too hard on yourself,” Adrian said, his voice calm but concerned. “You shouldn’t have agreed to Alpha Dominic’s terms. I could’ve talked to him for you.”Adrian had helped me back to my room after what happened. I was too weak to walk on my own, so he guided me gently, his arm supporting most of my weight. The moment I sat down, I let out a shaky breath. My chest felt tight, and honestly, I was still struggling to breathe properly. I never imagined Dominic could be that fast… or that strong.“He’s powerful.” I whispered, still catching my breath.Adrian nodded slowly, like he wasn’t surprised. “That’s why he’s the Alpha here. No one can beat him. He’s not just strong, he’s formidable.”I nodded, trying to process everything. My hands trembled slightly as I placed them on my lap. “I really thought he was going to kill me back there.”He let out a small sigh. “Oh no, Cass. That was just him warming up. He wasn’t even using his full strength. From what I saw earlier, he

I saw the shock in Lance’s eyes.“What do you mean about your father?” he asked, his voice laced with confusion. “My father is the victim here!”I shook my head slowly, firmly.“No, Lance,” I said, my voice trembling but clear. “Our father died because of your father. He committed treason!”“No… lies!” Lance shouted, his voice rising with fury as he took a step toward me. His hand reached out like he wanted to grab me—like he still thought he had power over me.The second he moved closer, something inside me snapped.I didn’t even understand what was happening at first. But my body responded before my mind could catch up. It was like a dam breaking. Heat surged through me, so intense it felt like my skin would tear apart.My breathing hitched. My hands started to tremble.And then, in one sudden, uncontrollable burst, I changed.It was raw, painful, overwhelming. Bones cracked, skin stretched, and everything I thought I knew about myself fell away in an instant.Everyone stepped back
