Semua Bab The Curse of Fated Mates : Bab 51 - Bab 60

I jumped from the bench in fright, scampering away until I was safely behind the closed doors of my room. My breathing was coming out in choked gasps. How is it that the pair of eyes that haunted my dreams for many nights had been right beside me? It was the same pair of eyes from the claiming ceremony. They were dark, cold, and empty. I couldn't forget them even if I tried. Without giving it too much of a thought, I stormed to Sandro's study. I needed answers.When I got there, the door was opened slightly and he stood at one side of the room, staring out the window. “Who is she?” I asked He turned so fast, I was worried he'd get a whiplash. “Uhm…who is who?” He asked, confusion evident on his face. I shook my head, realising how improperly my question was worded. “A woman met me outside, she looks quite old, has sickly dark eyes, and thin lips. Who is she?”“Sickly dark eyes,” he muttered under his breath, still looking confused and then a light bulb went off in his head.“That

My cheeks burned brightly and I wished the ground would swallow me up at that very moment. “I'm sorry,” I squeaked uncomfortably.“You don't need to be, I like it,” he stated. The nerve of that man! He spoke about it so casually as though he was talking about the weather. I could feel myself pulsing in response to his words. My body was so reactive to him, it was insane.“Are you up for it?” He asked plainly but I knew exactly what he was asking. He wanted to know if I couldn't chicken out like I did the last time. Truth is, I wasn't sure. But at that moment, it would have been impossible to say no. My body yearned for his touch in every way.I nodded, no longer trusting my voice to cooperate with me. He growled under his breath. “Come to my chambers tomorrow night,” he instructed before rising to his feet and walking off, leaving me in a breathless, flustered mess. ——It would have been better if Sandro had turned me down. That would have been less torture than the agonizing wai

“I was told that there's a secret passed down through the Moretti Alpha line. Moretti men meet their mates between the ages of 20-25, no earlier and no later. After I turned 25 and there was no sign of my mate, my father and I visited a witch. Through her, I learnt that my mate would come along years later, and that her presence would trigger disasters in my pack,” Sandro revealed.I didn't move and I was barely breathing. I couldn't risk getting seen at that point. “This prophecy is known only to the men in my family, it has never gotten out and should never,” Sandro sternly warned them and they made sounds of agreement.“When Elara came along, I believed I would be protecting my pack and my family by rejecting her. I had been warned that she would be a harbinger of a great evil, and that it would be our greatest undoing, so rejecting her seemed like the wise thing to do,” he continued.My mind was racing with multiple thoughts. Me? A harbinger of evil? Could it be because of the mag

Just as Trevor rushed into the house, Madame G’s eyes snapped shut, and her body went rigid. I stared at her in shock, my heart in my throat. What was happening?I felt this unfamiliar pull in my limbs and the desire to reach for her grew with every passing second. I knew what the feeling was, it was my magic.Trevor was lifting her up in his arms when her eyes snapped open again, this time normal, and she looked directly at him. “Stop,” she drawled out in a faint whisper. He dropped her hastily with her back resting on the center table. He looked a little spooked out by what was happening. “I know why you're here,” she said looking straight ahead but I knew it was meant for me.Her head fell forward and for a moment, everything in the room was still. “Luna? You're here,” Madame G said in her usual voice, looking around in confusion.“Madame G, are you alright? It looked like you were having some form of seizure,” I told her, feeling confident enough to take a few steps closer.“Lea

The creature didn't disappear. Not when I rubbed my eyes vigorously, not when I washed my face, not even when I spent the night in Sandro's room and returned to my room in the morning.“Is this a bad dream?” I asked out loud as I slowly walked towards my bed. Like my disbelief wasn't enough, the strange creature spread open a pair of tiny webbed wings and fluttered towards me.“What the hell are you?” I whispered, cocking my head in bewilderment. “Good morning Luna. I waited for you all day,” the tiny voice came again. It was clearly coming from the small creature but I could barely make out a mouth on it. “I'm Lin. I'm a faery, your faery,” she introduced with a small curtsey.I pointed at myself, confused. “My faery?”“I was released from my home when your magic had a burst a few days ago,” she said. “The magic had a huge effect on my home, causing a tremor that sent me here. It didn't take me long to find you. You're magic is a magnet to mine, so I followed it,” she explained, her
