All Chapters of Reborn as the Unwanted Mate: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

Rome led me down a hallway I had never walked through before.The mansion was enormous—far too large for any one person to fully memorize every corridor and hidden staircase. I had explored quite a bit since arriving here, but every now and then, Rome would casually lead me somewhere that felt entirely new. Rome walked slightly ahead of me, though his pace was slower than usual. Along with that, he looked oddly tense. “Where are we going?” I asked.He glanced back at me briefly before facing forward again.“You’ll see.”“That is not a reassuring answer.”He chuckled quietly.“You complain a lot for someone who is about to receive a surprise.”I raised an eyebrow.“Oh? A surprise?”He nodded once.My curiosity grew instantly.We reached the end of the hallway where a large wooden door stood quietly against the stone wall. It looked older than the rest of the mansion doors, but somehow it also looked newly-maintained. Rome stopped in front of it.“I have never been here before either

INDYThe library had become my favorite place in the entire mansion. It was quiet, but it felt comforting rather than lonely. The tall shelves surrounded the room of stories that had already been told, while the empty pages on my screen waited patiently for one that had yet to be written.I had been sitting at the desk for what felt like hours.The computer screen glowed in front of me, displaying a half-written paragraph that I had rewritten at least six times already.It was not terrible. But it was not good either.I sighed quietly and leaned back in the chair before letting my arms drop onto the desk in defeat.I was back to writing again. And this time, it did not feel like I was being pressured into it.No one was demanding that I produce a masterpiece. No one was watching over my shoulder, expecting results.This time, the decision had been entirely mine.And yet, it still was not going well.I pursed my lips and stared at the blinking cursor on the screen.It had been a long

POPPYI rushed to my room, nearly tripping over the romance book that was still lying on the floor. For a moment, I hesitated and glanced at the page that had scandalized me earlier. My face heated again immediately, and I quickly shut it before tossing it onto the bed.“Not now,” I whispered to myself.I changed my clothes three times until I found something that made me feel pretty and comfortable at the same time. By the time I heard a car pulling into the driveway, my heart was beating so fast from both nervousness and rushing. I walked downstairs slowly, trying to look calm even though my entire body felt tense.When I stepped outside and saw him leaning against the car, I stopped in my tracks. Crap.He looked really handsome.He was still in his work clothes—a suit but without the blazer. His hair looked slightly messy, and the late afternoon sunlight made the sharp lines of his face look even more striking.For a moment, I simply stared at him. But the moment I caught myself

POPPY I was standing outside the Courts of Justice with a lunchbox in my hands.If someone had told me a month ago that I would be standing outside one of the most intimidating buildings in Algard, clutching homemade lunch like a nervous housewife from a romance novel, I would have laughed at them.And yet here I was.The Courts of Justice towered above me. I shifted the lunchbox from one hand to the other.I had read way too many romance books lately—that was the only logical explanation.Indy had given me one at first, saying it might help me understand relationships better.Then I had read another.And another.And another.Somewhere along the way, my brain had decided that cooking for the man you liked and bringing it to his workplace was a perfectly normal and romantic thing to do.It didn’t help that Algard was engulfed in a romantic atmosphere these days. Everywhere I looked, there were posters and banners for the upcoming wedding of Rome and Indy. The entire city seemed to

POPPY “So… we’re like in an Alpha camp?”Jude paused in the middle of unpacking a bag, one hand holding a neatly folded shirt. He looked hesitant to agree for a second before eventually nodding. “You could say that,” he finally said.I sat awkwardly on the edge of the bed—our bed, in particular. The realization made my ears warm.The cabin was larger than I expected, but it was still clearly meant for two people sharing a space. A small window looked out over the forest, where tall trees swayed gently in the breeze.Jude had already taken charge of organizing everything.I had tried to help the moment we entered the room. However, he had refused and took matters into his own hands. Every time I attempted to stand and help him, he gave me a look that made me sit back down. “You don’t have to do everything,” I said as I watched him. “It’s fine,” he replied.He looked experienced as he placed our belongings neatly into the small wardrobe. “So, what are we doing in Alpha camp?” I ask
