All Chapters of ENTANGLED WITH THE CURSED ICE PRINCE : Chapter 171 - Chapter 180

Author’s POVLucien and Rylan are worked up. The taxi she boarded—traced to this location—is parked right outside, so if she is not here, then where is she?Then Lira shifts back and stands there, naked in her human form, her chest still rising and falling rapidly from the lingering fury of it all.The men’s eyes widen in a mixture of shock and confusion.“You—shifted—into a white wolf?” Lucien asks, his voice thick with disbelief. “How is this possible?”He doesn’t even know whether to be excited or terrified. But with the way she ripped her captor apart, he feels an undeniable pride—his sister can protect herself now.“You are the legendary white wolf?” Rylan chokes out.At that moment, his wolf echoes inside him, Mate. She is ours.It thuds excitedly within his chest.Yet he isn’t entirely surprised. From the way his wolf has always aligned with her, he has long believed she is his mate. Hearing it now only solidifies that belief.Lira can hardly believe it herself, but she does no

Rylan’s POVAt first, I thought Lira was just fooling around with the letter. I thought that now that she knew we were fated mates, she would change her mind about us.But with what happened today, it is now crystal clear that she wants nothing to do with me. Her voice, her gaze, and her words hint that she has wanted to break up with me for the longest time, even though I tried to convince myself that she didn’t mean it. Even though I tried to convince myself that I might have done something wrong—or that something must have prompted her decision.Lira’s words didn’t just pierce my chest. They burned me from the inside out. They burned so fiercely that I felt like dying—like ending it all.But I won’t.I will become strong enough not to go back to her. Yes, I will free her this time since she wants to leave so desperately. She is right about everything, and because I love her, I won’t let her settle for the barest minimum.As I walk out of the hospital, my legs feel so weak—like they

Rylan’s POVI stare at Seraphina Graves seated before me, her full body on display. She doesn’t even look like a princess at all. One would think she is one of those strippers at a clubhouse—but then, I am not the type to judge someone based on how they dress.Moreover, I used to like ladies who dressed like this in the past—until I met Lira, and my taste changed completely. Now, it makes me cringe, especially since my wolf won’t stop growling in irritation, urging me to leave and stop staring at another woman’s body.But I need to let him know that Lira is in our past now—and she will remain there. In fact, he needs to start getting used to Seraphina Graves as soon as possible, because if everything goes well, she will be our new mate.“Alright,” she says. “I will marry you on one condition.”My chest tightens at her words. I wonder what condition she would give now. Is it something I can meet?I push myself up and lean forward. “What is it, Princess?” I ask softly.“Well, I don’t wa

Lira’s POV“It has been discovered that your mother was framed by someone of a higher rank,” Gamma Lucas whispers, his voice barely audible as his eyes dart around nervously.Of course, this is confidential information, and no one should hear it—it could put him and his family in danger.The moment I called him earlier, he came immediately. He said he had been working tirelessly to get Mother released, but all his efforts had been futile. There is concrete evidence against her—evidence that claims she used Pack money to cover personal expenses.All three of us walk down the hallway toward the holding cells where Mother is being interrogated. Gamma Lucas had to bribe that bastard, Alec, before he allowed us into the palace. He told us we must sneak in and out, which is why we won’t be able to see the king.I wonder who exactly ordered Mother’s arrest—and what they stand to gain from it.Before we enter the holding cell, he turns to us.“You have only ten minutes to speak to your mother

“Good,” she says softly. “What did I tell you to always do when things get tough?”I swallow past the thick lump in my throat, my breathing coming out in short, uneven gasps.“You said I should always remain strong, even in the face of death. You said crying and worrying won’t solve the problem, but a calm and positive mind would think of a way forward.”She nods, smiling in satisfaction. “Good.” Her eyes brim with unshed tears. “You have to remain calm and positive, baby. This is going to be a tough phase for our family, but I promise you—we will come out of this stronger.”“Yes, Mama,” I murmur, my voice barely audible.Just then, the door slams open with such force that it seems like it might tear off its hinges. We snap our heads around to see Silas standing there, his jaw clenched tight.“The Alpha wants you in the courtyard now,” he says coldly. “It is time for your judgment.”I look back at Mom, my eyes wide as terror courses through me. I grip her hand tightly. “What—judgment,
