Alle Kapitel von Their Untouchable Little Mate : Kapitel 101 – Kapitel 110

CORABy the time I finally made it back to my room, the sun was dropping fast and it was already nearing dinner time. I had to peel my clothes off my skin, and every time I moved, my ribs sent a sharp, stabbing reminder that I had spent the morning being used as a punching bag by a man the size of a mountain. I took a moment to just sit on the edge of the bed, breathing slowly and trying to find a bit of balance before I had to go back out there. I knew I couldn't skip dinner, because Liam would probably just come in here and drag me out by my heels if I didn't show up. I relaxed for a few minutes, staring at the stone walls, before I forced myself to get dressed and head down to the hall.The dining room was unnervingly silent when I walked in. I sat down at my usual spot, and the only sound was the clinking of silverware against heavy plates. Liam was sitting at the head of the table, eating his steak with a focused intensity. He looked up once to ask about my wellbeing, but he seem

CORAFor the first time in forever, I wasn’t feeling as tired as usual after training. Usually, by the time Liam was done with me, I felt like a sack of rocks, but today was different. I guess it was the desire to know what was actually going on that kept my blood pumping. My mind was sharp, and the exhaustion just couldn't settle into my bones. After excusing myself from the field, I took a quick detour to the stables, just to make sure no one was following me, before heading straight to Cade’s room.I found him pacing by his bed, and the second I closed the door, he looked up with a grim expression. He told me that he had spoken to Liam, and according to the Alpha, Ronan was actually on the fortress walls overseeing the guard duty. I stared at him, my mouth hanging open just a little bit. I was surprised because that seemed new, and Ronan wasn't exactly the type to volunteer for extra guard duty on the walls. But before I could even ask when this new duty had started, Cade grabbed

CORAI woke up with the taste of blood still lingering on my tongue, and by the time the sun was high, I was back on the field. It was the next day, and I was currently training with a bow, but I wasn't feeling like myself at all. My fingers felt clumsy against the string, and my vision kept swimming as I stared at the straw target across the dirt. I didn't know why, but the feeling of not being in control of my own fate was starting to eat me alive. I hated not knowing what exactly was going on, and I hated being stuck in this fortress where everyone seemed to have a script except for me. It was like I was just an observer in my own life, and I hated not being able to chase after whatever was seemingly toying with me.The memory of the bloody chains from my vision kept flashing behind my eyes. I felt like a puppet, and the more I thought about it, the angrier I got. Subconsciously, I started directing all that heat and frustration toward the target. I didn't see a circle of straw an

CORAI was currently resting in a corner of the training grounds, my back pressed against a wooden post that was still vibrating from the impact of sparring warriors. It’s been some weeks now since the chaos with the library and the missing book, and surprisingly, things have been somewhat stable for me. There has literally been no drama, no strange whispers in the dark, and no one trying to break down my door in the middle of the night. In this time, I managed to get used to my training sessions and actually managed to progress further than I thought I could. I was no longer the girl who tripped over her own feet while holding a wooden sword. Although I knew I couldn't take on the stronger warriors head-on, I didn't have any problem with ambushes and deceptive attacks. I had learned how to use my smaller size to my advantage, moving under their guard and striking before they even realized I was there.I actually felt proud of my achievements, and as I wiped the sweat from my forehe

CORADinner soon comes, and for the first time in a while, I’m actually eager to see the brothers. Usually, I dread these formal sittings where the air feels like it’s made of lead, but tonight is different. I have a mission. I feel a strange burst of energy, and I even help and take over the dishing process from the maids! They look at me like I’ve grown a second head, but I don't care, and I just keep moving, setting the heavy ceramic plates down and making sure the silver is straight. I want everything to be perfect before I drop my bombshell.The brothers arrive one by one, and they all stop short when they see me already seated at the table. It’s a rarity, since I’m usually the last person to arrive, often dragging my feet or hoping they’ll start without me. Cade is the first to enter, and he slightly chuckles as he pulls out his chair. He looks at me with that knowing, sharp glint in his eyes and asks her if there was anything wrong. I just shake my head silently, focusing on
