Alle Kapitel von Their Untouchable Little Mate : Kapitel 111 – Kapitel 120

CORAMy stomach felt like it was tied in knots, but I forced myself to walk toward the kitchen anyway, grabbing a cold plate of meat and bread. I shoveled the food down quickly because I knew Liam wouldn't go easy on me tomorrow just because I was emotional, and if I was going back to the pack territory, I needed to be fast and alert. I finished the meal in record time and didn't even taste it, then I headed straight for the library to find something to drown out the silence of the fortress.Ever since the voices started whispering in the back of my mind weeks ago, I had started this habit of late-night reading because it was the only way to distract my brain enough to actually fall asleep. The library was usually the most peaceful place in the Blackwood estate, mostly because the brothers were too busy brooding or training to care about dusty scrolls and old history books. I pushed open the double doors, expecting the usual darkness and the scent of old parchment, but I stopped dead

CORABy the next morning, I hadn’t slept more than a few hours, but I didn't feel tired because my mind was busy making a resolution that I wasn't going to be the weak link anymore. I kept seeing Cade’s fingers catching my blade over and over again in my head, and every time I thought about it, I felt a fresh wave of heat crawling up my neck. I dressed quickly in my sturdiest gear and headed out to the training grounds before the sun was even fully over the mountains, and I was already pacing the dirt when Liam finally showed up. He looked as imposing as always, his massive shoulders blocking out the morning light, but I didn't wait for him to start his usual lecture about posture or breathing.I walked right up to him, and before he could even open his mouth, I told him that I had made a decision to increase my training load starting today. Liam stopped in his tracks and looked down at me with a surprised expression, and he stayed quiet for a long second like he was trying to figure

CORAI had planned to stubbornly follow along behind them and prove I wasn't just some burden, but the morning training had drained every bit of juice I had left in my marrow. I decided to lie down for just a few minutes to energize myself, and I told myself I’d be up and ready by the time they geared up for the ambush. However, my body had other plans, and the next thing I knew, I was blinking my eyes open in a room that was pitch black. I scrambled out of bed and rushed to the window, and I saw that the moon was already high and the fortress courtyard was empty."Damn it," I cursed under my breath, and I started fumbling with my boots while my heart did a nervous dance in my throat.I rushed out of my room and hurried toward Liam’s office, hoping to catch them before they actually crossed the border, but the hallways were silent and the heavy oak doors to his study were wide open. I stepped inside and saw the maps were still on the desk, but the room was empty and the air felt stal

CORA When I finally blinked my eyes open, the library was gone and I was lying in my own bed, and the clock on the wall said it was already midnight. My last memory of the library desk and that bloody, screaming chain resurfaced instantly, and I flinched so hard I nearly rolled off the mattress. I was shaking, and I started touching my chest and my ribs, checking for holes or blood because that vision felt too real to be just a dream. I was freaking out a bit, and I was finding it hard to believe I was actually still alive and breathing, and I was just about to scramble up to find a mirror when a deep voice cut through the dark. "Are you awake now?" I jumped, my heart nearly leaping out of my throat, and I looked toward the corner of the room where Liam was sitting in a heavy chair. He looked like he’d been through a meat grinder, and his shirt was torn and stained with dark blood, but his voice carried a tinge of relief that he wasn't even trying to hide. I stared at him, start

CORA I stood there by the bed with my hands empty and my heart knocking against my ribs, and I was honestly puzzled by the sheer level of venom in Ronan’s voice. He didn't move toward the door like I thought he would, and instead, he turned back around and asked me what the hell I was up to during most nights when everyone else was trying to keep the borders secure. I told him straight to his face that I wasn't doing anything out of the ordinary, and I certainly wasn't trying to sabotage their lives, but he didn't want to hear it. He let out a sharp, ugly snarl and told me to cut it off, and he stepped right into my personal space while saying that I had nearly caused them to lose the entire fight at the ravine. He claimed that whatever I had triggered with my little "vision" had sent a shock through the bond that paralyzed them in the middle of a swarm of rogues, and he looked like he wanted to wrap his hands around my neck just for existing. I told him again that I didn't do any
