All Chapters of Mated To The Brutal Alpha: Chapter 71 - Chapter 78

Tessa“Enough of this,” Lucy says, grabbing my wrist before I can even protest, her grip firm but not painful. “You don’t get to hide in your room all day like some forgotten servant.”She couldn't even wait for me to properly tie my hair into a ponytail style. Now, I regret even agreeing to this.“I’m not hiding,” I mutter, though my feet are already moving as she drags me out of my room and down the corridor.She throws me a look over her shoulder and I know what it means. I've been in my room for the past three days, having Juana bring me my meals and avoiding any kind of gathering.That night with Renric was so perfect that it has been replaying in my head ever since. Yet my greatest fear is not being able to deny it should Kael ask. So yeah, Kael is the reason I've been in doors, I don't know how to look him in the face and not deny fucking my own husband.“For three days I've been here, not once have I seen you at the dining table,” her voice drifts me out of thoughts. “Or am I

TessaTheir eyes snap at each other. “Juana… come with me,” I say quickly, tightening my grip on her hand before either of them can react.She hesitates, her body trembling, her breath uneven. “Luna… no… I…”“Now,” I cut in, firmer this time.I pull her along and we rush inside.She stumbles beside me, coughing again. I wrap an arm around her waist, dragging her forward as we pass through the corridor.We get to the sitting room. I freeze and keep moving. Lucy is pressed against the wall, Lennox's body too close to her as a hand of his is braced just above her head, trapping her there. What really is going on here? His face is inches from hers, his gaze locked onto her like he’s trying to kiss her.This shouldn't bother me right now. I should keep moving.They both notice me and they spring apart instantly, Lucy straightening and brushing invisible creases off her dress like nothing happened. Lennox steps back, his expression smoothing out into something unreadable.“What’s wrong w

TessaThe doctor’s breath rattles under Renric’s grip, his feet barely touching the ground, his hands clawing helplessly at the iron hold around his throat.“I… didn’t know…” he chokes, his voice breaking apart.Renric’s eyes darken. “Then know this now,” he says, his voice deadly calm in a way that’s far worse than shouting. “You find a way to fix this…”His fingers tighten. “…or I will find your wife.”The room goes still.“I will find your daughters… your son…” he says, glaring into his eyes. “And I will make sure they get infected.”The doctor’s eyes widen in pure horror.“And you…” Renric leans closer, his gaze burning into him, “…you will watch them lose their minds before they die.”Renric lets go. The doctor collapses to the ground, coughing violently, clutching his neck as he drags in air like he’s been drowning.Renric doesn’t look at him again. He just turns and walks out, the door slamming shut behind him.Everywhere remains still for a while. I am as shocked as the rest o

Renric She closes the distance between us, stopping just a breath away. “Something tells me…you don’t want to put a baby in that breeder.”My entire body goes rigid.“You want to ruin my chances of ever becoming your Luna.” she murmurs. “So I’ll make this simple for you,” she continues, her gaze locking onto mine. “Put a baby in her…or your brother dies.”For a second, I almost laughed. How delusional of her to come here and think she can tell me what to do? The most important thing is that I now know she has the means that can save my brother and that is all that matters.“Just give me the leaves,” I say, brushing past the threat like it’s nothing. “Let the doctor process them…. You have nothing to worry about. Tessa and I have already consummated our marriage.”That's what she wants to hear right? Besides, it was the honest truth.Her expression shifts instantly, shock flickering across her face.“Ask your spy…Maybe they heard her screams that night..”Her lips part slightly.“Now,
