All Chapters of A Blind Gamble: The Mate I Never Chose: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Silver’s POV“You are lucky I was in the district when Triscade called,” Mama Yuri spoke softly, her voice trembling as always. She appeared as a defenseless blind old lady, but she was something far more than that.“I could have ignored the meeting call until I was ready.”“Ignored?” I reacted. “Thank goodness you were able to make it. How else could I make my announcement without the main person in the room?”She attempted to speak but paused, her gaze shifting to Jericho beside me. His fist was clenched as he held back the rage burning through his veins.“Your cousin seems stressed. Is he okay?” she asked.“Yeah, bro, why the fierce look?” Triscade chipped in. Jericho was never one to conceal his emotions; he always struggled with that, even as kids.“He’s working through some stuff,” I answered with a wide smile. “He’ll be fine.”“Everyone is waiting in the conference room,” Triscade said, gesturing as if to hold my hand. I had always known that whoever their benefactor was, they

Silver’s POV“Are you accusing me of something?” she asked with a stern look, her goons standing behind her with their guns trained on us.“If you have something to say, Salvatore, speak now.”“Me?” I muttered, grinning as I sensed how much my presence irritated her.“I have no business with you, hag. Give me Rune, and I’ll get out of your hair, for now.”“For now?” she shot back. She let out a snicker, clenching her fist tightly.“Eclipse is purely transactional now. There’s no alpha here, only a business CEO and that’s me. I don’t care about the Feigns.”“An alpha rule is still a rule,” Kaleb said calmly. “You can’t simply erase a decree like that.”“I can, and I will,” she retorted sharply, turning her focus to me.“You think we’d defend an alpha whose brother died protecting the one who killed one of ours? Macai died for you after you and your mate killed my nephew.”“Your nephew tried to rape me!” I snapped, and the men around her gasped softly.“Oh, she didn’t tell you how perve

Silver's POVWe sat quietly by the fireplace, Kaleb tapping his knee with his fingers to control his urge to speak.It was just the four of us—Kaleb, Crator, Rune, and me.“This is fuckin' lame.” He got up, moved to the counter, and poured himself a drink while the rest of us hesitated to speak.“Can one of you say something already? Fucking hell.”Rune cleared his throat loudly.“What are you doing here, Silver?” he asked with a stern look.I was perplexed. I thought it had been obvious from the beginning.“I'm here to help, Rune. I thought Natasha had—”“Killed me?” he cut in swiftly. “Nah. That bitch knew better than to kill me. No matter what they might present it as, I am still the alpha. The people in my district are bound to me by blood-moon bond. She can't wipe that away.”“She’s forcing them to see otherwise,” Kaleb muttered as he received a glass from Crator.“Thank you.”“What is this?” I asked. “Only the Euron gets a drink and I don't?”“He's the only one here who can actu

Raid’s POVI was worried sick, yet unable to reach her. There was no phone service, and I couldn’t escape the Gurr estate on my own.I stormed into Gaten’s study furiously, desperate to help the ones I loved.“I need to get out of here. You have no reason to hold me.”“You and I know that’s false,” he said, setting down the tea he was sipping. I had met people addicted to smoking and drinking, but never tea. Green sludge that tasted like crap.“You are here because I told young Kaleb to bring you. He made the deal because I foresaw Khang’s move.”“I know all of that,” I heaved, ready to do whatever it took as long as I was getting out.“You told me to be patient and learn, to understand Khang’s motive, but I got nothing. I have researched every single prospect, aspect of the library, and there’s nothing there.”“There’s always something, Raid,” he said calmly, still sipping his addiction.“I gave you knowledge, clarity, and a safe space, but you seek chaos. I have known Argyles to be

Silver's POVA knock on the door alerted me to their presence. One of Crator's men led them in as I walked down the stairs of Rune’s mansion.“Where is she?” Jericho's voice was the first I heard. “Where is my sister?”“Sister?” I replied as I stepped into the hallway. “That's touching, Jericho. I never thought you would ever take me as a sister.”He walked up to me with a fierce look, barely masking his worry. “You dumb… dumb child,” he said as he wrapped his arms around me.“I told you to reach out if anything happened.”“Well, I'm sorry. I didn't get the chance with a serial killer in front of me,” I replied, then turned to the others behind him.“Jane. Beta Algae.”“I would have never forgiven you if you died,” Jane uttered callously. “All my training would have gone to waste. I don't waste students.”“Shut the fuck up,” Jericho snapped sharply. Their bickering made me crack a smile. I thought I might not see that again.Algae walked quietly to my side, his eyes saying what his li
