Semua Bab Mated to My Enemy: Tamed by the Tyrant Prince: Bab 31 - Bab 40

DariusThe entire events seemed to replay in my head, the fear coursing through my veins again. I was running through the muddy forest once more with the figure behind me. This time, I could feel his breath on the back of my neck, so close he could take a bite out of my skin.Then I made the same mistake of turning back, I tripped over the root again and fell headlong into the ditch. My eyes snapped open, a gasped bursting through my lips.For a long time, I couldn't remember where I was or how I had gotten there. My head throbbed with a rhythmic, pulsing headache that almost split my skull in half.I remembered the rain, the freezing cold, and the terrifying sensation of the earth giving way beneath me. I remembered falling into a pit, the rush of water, and then a sickening crack as my skull slammed into something hard. After that, there had been nothing but blackness.My breathing started to reduce into its normal pace when I looked around. It didn't feel like I was in a pit anymor

KaelI stared at the mountain of luggage blocking the entrance to the pack house, each box seemed to be filled to the brim, the material bulging with clothes and others stacked recklessly. I angled my head behind to see the car as it spilled into the higway, whoever had dropped her before falling to her face again. She had a bright smile on her face with perspiration littering her forehead.There was something about her, she always seemed to suck out the joy from anywhere I was in. It wasn’t like I had any joy, which made my mood all the more worse upon seeing her with her broad smile. Her presence felt like a physical weight pressing down on my chest, adding to the suffocating panic already clawing at my throat. I didn't have time for this. Every second she stood here wasting my breath was a second that Darius was somewhere out there, even worse, his body could be devoured by rogues.Are you going to just stand there?” she asked in a cheery tone. Her voice was annoying and it was ano

DariusA bucket of freezing water slammed into my face with such force that it felt like a physical blow, stealing the air from my lungs and leaving me choking. I sputtered, my head snapping back against the wooden frame of the chair as the water soaked through my clothes and the gag in my mouth.My eyes snapped open, flickering around the room once more. My eyes stung as the water burned them. Through the blur of wet hair that pressed against my face and stinging eyes, I saw him once again. The hooded figure was standing there, the empty bucket swinging slightly in one gloved hand.The room was still dim, lit only by that same sickly, pale light from the hallway. He didn't say a word. He just set the bucket down and the metal sound echoed in the room before he reached into a small bag he had brought with him.He pulled out a plastic container and a spoon. He stepped toward me and untied the gag, but I didn't scream this time. My throat was too raw, and my heart was too heavy with a s

KaelThe hospital smelled of antiseptic and lingering death, a scent that usually didn't bother me because the amount of injuries wolves could incur in a day, but today it felt like it was choking me.I leaned against the wall, trying not to pace the hallway when my min was already in the room with the doctor and Darius. I wanted to move across, barge into the room and demand for answers.Adrian was a mess of grief and rage in my head, pacing just as I was, his claws metaphorically digging into my consciousness.Why the fuck were they taking so long to deliver the answers? A reason popped into my head and I swallowed it down, no, he can’t leave now. There will be signs right? I won’t feel this comfortable, there will be some sort of severance from me, right? I sighed and sat down, maintaining the blank look on my face.“How much longer do we have to wait here? We have other important things to do,” I said, trying to keep up with the fact that I was uninterested in being here.When the

KaelThe door to my room slammed open once more, the vibration coursing through the entire room and pulling me from my slumber. My eyes snapped open, but the world didn't sit still. My head throbbed and buzzed with the same uncertainty and confusion that was there a few minutes ago."Kael! Get up! What the hell is wrong with you?" Drew’s voice was a roar of pure panic. He was over me in a second, ripping the heavy blankets off my body. He pushed at my shoulders, the consistent movement pushing the drowsiness off me.I tried to sit up, but my head felt like it was filled with lead. My tongue was thick, and my throat was parched. "What... what time is it?" I croaked."It’s nearly dusk, Kael! You’ve been out for twelve fucking hours," Drew shouted, grabbing my shoulders and shaking me. Twelve hours? That’s…how did it take that long?"The duel starts in less than thirty minutes. Silas and the elders are already at the field. The entire pack is waiting. They think you’ve tucked tail and ru
