Mated to the Enemy: Imprisoned by Mate Bond のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

Gillian's POV Three days, seventy -two hours, four thousand three hundred and twenty minutes. Call me crazy, but I have counted every single one of them because she has not opened her eyes. Because she is still unconscious. I beat myself to it. Why did I stand to keep mute when she woke up the first time, asking me questions about what happened? But do I really have a say? Do I have a say to this? What should I say?That my father is the beast and he'd urged her to suck on her blood. Macy blames me after, asking me why I am so selfish and always trying to remove myself from situations just to avoid being caught in between. She's right after all. This is the same thing I did when my father and Lucius were planning to strike on Desiree's pack. I should have stopped it, should I have involved myself but I was nonchalant. I didn't think it mattered. However, the moon goddess was cruel to me. Cruel to me that she gave me another mate. After the one I first claimed, Jolene died for un

Desiree's POV The conversation I had with Lucius left him reeling with shock. But he still had his cunning smirk when he left Gillian's chamber. I take a warm shower, washing the weakness away from my bones and making sure my body is lighter. The only reason why I am here and alive is to avenge my father's death and my pack's ruin— Gillian and Lucius? They are going to pay for it. I stare at my reflection in the mirror as the maids finish arranging my hair. I haven't seen Eliana around since I woke up and I don't know why I am bothered by that. I adjust the maxi gown to cling to my body and force out a smile that doesn't reach my face. “Are you ready, Luna?” one of the maids asks softly.I hate the word Luna since I have arrived into Gillian's pack, perhaps, it is going to be very useful. “Yes,” I say calmly. “I want to eat downstairs.”The maid freezes slightly, worry written all over her face. “With… everyone?”I nod. “With everyone.”Because hiding upstairs like a weak vic

Lucius's POVSeraphina Dickson! She is a masterpiece. A masterpiece for my plans. Using her and Desiree would be a better fit for me to win against Gillian. What will it be like?Having two women willing to do anything just to be on that spot. Although I know only Seraphina would be my accomplice for now. I hear footsteps from behind and even without turning my back, I know who it is and she is not only clinging her heels on the tiled floor, she is stamping on it. Like the floors offended her. And of course, she's not composed. I lean against the stone pillar near the outer balcony with my arms folded loosely across my chest, watching the servants move nervously around the wall. News travels fast in a pack like this. By now, at least half the territory already knows Gillian rejected her.Publicly or privately doesn’t matter. Rejection is rejection and Seraphina doesn't seem to accept rejection. Low-key my type. A few seconds later, I see her turn to a corner, her steps scurry

Gillian's POV “Alpha Gillian!”“Alpha Gillian!”The soft bang on my door jolts me back into reality as I turn my direction to the door. The voice is familiar. Kael, my beta.I thought I told him not to let anything interrupt me?I have decided to be alone since yesterday that Desiree fainted. When I walked in on them having a bicker at each other, I knew something was off. Desiree sounded way too calm than the normal cold desiree that would fire anybody who comes her way. Maybe I ruined her. Maybe it is the toxin from my father's body that's trying to prevail.She has been treated by the pack healer and by now, she's probably finding a way out to get the toxin out of her. Yes, I threatened her to do a better job or lose her family. It’s high time I start taking Desiree more seriously. She's the second mate moon goddess gave me and I cannot take that for granted . The knock interrupts my thoughts again, harder this time and all I can do is sigh out loud. “Enter.”The door opens,

Desiree's POV If someone had told me a week ago that I would willingly choose Eliana to accompany me anywhere outside Gillian's territory, I would have laughed in their face and tell them to their face ‘In your dreams’But here I amStanding at the entrance of one of the most extravagant boutiques I have ever seen. Now I understand why everyone always wants to be at the midnight pack boutique. Because it is unique!Eliana is on my left, while Macy is on my right, and of course, guards are hovering behind us. I'd thought he would allow me to leave Eliana and Macy alone, a way for me to escape, however, he seemed to vision situations out before they even happened. Eliana still looks stunned. Actually…stunned is an understatement. She looks like someone told her the sky suddenly turned purple. “you…picked me?” she asks for the third time since we left the estate. Her tone is filled with both suspicion and disbelief. I glance at her briefly. “Yes,” I say flatly.“Who thought the fi
