The Alpha's Cursed mate의 모든 챕터: 챕터 121 - 챕터 130

*FREYA*Lyra steps in front of me, her kohl lined eyes shooting daggers at Leo. “She is not going anywhere with you,” She hisses, gritting her teeth.The room goes silent, even Octavia's wails reduce to tremors. Leonidas's jaw clenches as he grind out. “I'm not referring to you, Lyra.”She crosses her arms over her chest, raising her chin defiantly to match his stare.The air in the room suddenly shifts as the tension tightens in Leonidas's jaw.I suck in a sharp breath before stepping forward.Lyra shoots me a look. “What are you doing?!”I curve my lips faintly even as my heart pounds violently in my chest. “ot's fine, Lyra. He is not going to hurt me,” I say more to reassure my self.Lyra's frown relaxes just a fraction before she gifts her hateful glare to Leonidas.“Return her in one good piece,” she spits before stepping aside.I hear Leonidas mutter curses under his breath and despite everything, I almost laugh.Lyra is probably the only one Leonidas is scared of.His eyes lo

*FREYA*The days that followed blurred together, most of them spent at Rhea’s place.I knew she had probably heard the rumors about Octavia’s pregnancy that had been hanging in the air for a while now, but thankfully she didn’t ask about it. Instead, she guided me through my training, helping me discover new things about my wolf.Normally, I would have shared these discoveries with Leonidas.But he lost that right the very day he lost my trust.And Dorian… Dorian has been busy lately.He doesn’t say it outright, but I feel it deep in my gut that something is about to happen.The strange feeling has sat heavy on my chest for days now. No matter how hard I try to shake it off, it refuses to leave.The wolves constantly patrolling the borders and the sudden curfew are enough proof that something isn’t right.I hurry back to the pack house as soon as the warning bell rings, its sharp, chilling sound slicing through the evening air.It’s the signal for every wolf to return to their homes.

*FREYA*My eyes snap open.Sleep vanishes instantly, replaced by a sharp jolt of awareness that sends my heart slamming against my ribs.For a moment, I lie completely still, staring into the darkness of my room. The faint silver light of the moon spills through the curtains, casting long shadows across the floor.My wolf stirs uneasily beneath my skin.That voice…I know that voice.My fingers curl tightly around the sheets as my breath slows, my mind racing.No.It can't be.I swallow, forcing my thoughts to steady.You're imagining things, I tell myself. You're exhausted. That's all.But before I can convince myself of that lieThe voice returns.“So this is how you greet me now?” it murmurs inside my head. “After everything we've been through?”A cold shiver crawls down my spine.My wolf bristles, a quiet growl rumbling in my chest.I try to move but I realize to my horror that my limbs are heavy, I can't even lift a muscle.What's going on?!I almost scream but it dies off somew

*FREYA*I march to Leonidas's office, the image of what used to be my sanctuary replaying in my mind like a broken record. His baby.Octavia's annoying voice rings in my head and I scoff under my breath as I turn into the narrow path. My fingers tighten around my dress, my chest heaving rapidly as anger simmers under my skin even Ailsa has gone quiet. I shove the door open without bothering to knock.It slams against the wall with a loud crack.Three pairs of eyes snap up to mine the instant I step in.Leonidas, Dorian and Kieran. The latter doesn't seem pleased to see me, his usual scowl on his face.I don't bother acknowledging the other two in the room, my gaze locking onto Leonidas whose lips are pulled in a frown.“I need to ask you a question,” I say quietly, my fingers digging into my palm almost drawing plot.He shoot to his feet in an instant and in a blink of an eye, he is in front of me, his hands reaching for me.I step out of his reach, keeping my face neutral.Hurt f

*FREYA*I lay facing the ceiling, refusing to leave my bed. I couldn't bring myself to leave the solace of my room after what Dorian did the day before. What if I run into him? What do I do then?What if the news already spread? Oh, goddess. I groan into the pillow, hoping to just disappear. Why did he have to do that? Just then the door creaks open and Alera slowly steps in. I shoot up from the bed, rushing to her when I notice her downcast eyes. “What happened, Alera? Did Octavia do something again?”She says nothing and that's enough for me. “That witch! She will get it from me,” I hiss, fists balling by my sides but Alera is quick to stop me. “No, Freya. She did nothing,” She murmurs, still refusing to look me in the eyes. “I just wanted to ask you something.” I blink. “Oh. You can ask.”Silence stretches long between us before she exhales loud.“Is there..” she starts cautiously. “...something between you and the gamma?”My eyes fly wide. “What? No! Where did you get th
