All Chapters of Mated To My Alpha Stepbrother: Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

Suddenly, it felt like I wasn't falling anymore, and I opened my eyes. Andrea stood in front of me with an angry expression. Tears broke out of my eyes, and without thinking, I hugged him, crying out loud.Andrea’s POVI woke up early as usual for my run, and Aurora was still asleep. I checked her pulse, and it was still normal. She looked peaceful and so beautiful while sleeping, and her hair sprawled out all over the pillow as she snored lightly.I made a mental note to tease her about her snores when she woke up. I thought she wouldn't be able to calm down after the stab yesterday, but surprisingly, she did. The stab wound healed on its own, another perk of being a Lycan, but I still made the healer examine the wound. Drogo was still absent from the mansion, and it was starting to bother me. As for Jason, I'm quite used to his disappearance. Once in a while, I left the room without locking the door. I wanted to cast the fire barrier, but it scared Aurora the last time, so I decide

Andrea’s POV For the past three days, Aurora's behavior towards me has been weird, she always flinched back whenever I tried to touch her, and generally, she avoided my touch most times. The healer recommended walks for Aurora and I took it upon myself to accompany her on these walks but she was always an arm's length away from me. I tried asking her what the problem was, but it was almost like she had gone mute. She wasn't talking to me anymore, to the point that she insisted on sleeping on the couch. I didn't want to force her so I let her be, she ate her meals at the right time and remained on the couch all day long, at night, she cried all through the night. I had no idea what I was supposed to do. I wanted to comfort her, to hold her and talk to her, but her body language screamed to stay away from me, and so I did. Dealing with Aurora made me forget about Arin. As much as I wanted to kill him, killing him was going to cause more trouble. Luca had been sending messages to me

Andrea’s POVI made a mental note to trace the source of the unknown number as I headed towards the throne hall. When I got to the throne hall, Arin was there, as were all the dungeon guards. I walked to my throne, and the guards bowed as I passed them. I didn't bother to sit on the throne as I stood in front of the Chief Dungeon Guard. “Did you order the guards to beat up Arin?” I asked the chief guard. “Alpha, we only did that to make him pay for what he did to Luna, and he deserved it,” the chief guard retorted without any hint of remorse as he glared at Arin.“But I didn't give any orders for you to do so, and so you misuse your power, is that right?” I asked again as I walked around the chief guard in circles. The chief guard fell on his knees instantly; he must have realised that I wasn't satisfied with his actions. “Forgive me, my Lord; we only did that to avenge our Luna." The chief guard pleaded with the rest of the guards. Whoever was also involved in the operation knelt d

Andrea’s POVI knew when everything changed with Aurora; I knew it, but I ignored it. I ignored it because I thought Aurora trusted me. I just wanted her to tell me everything on her own accord. I wanted her to rediscover her sense of self.That was the reason why I ignored her and gave her the space willingly, but I knew she was acting on someone's word, more like she was driven to do so. I didn't want to pressure her to confide in me, so I hoped that she would willingly come to me, but not until the sickness happened.I heard Aurora loud and clear; she said the medicine was swapped, and when I demanded answers, she was unresponsive, which angered me. I was very close to leaving the room; I was done with letting Aurora toy with my emotions until she asked me to stay.She begged, and I couldn't look away; she looked broken, and I wanted to fix her for my satisfaction. The surprise was written all over Aurora's face: “How did you know that?” Aurora asked.“You seem to enjoy her company

Aurora's POV I watched as the doctor collected the samples quietly. Everyone seemed lost in their respective thoughts, but no one said a word well except for Andrea, who looked like he was thoroughly enjoying the scene. I finished my grapes silently while waiting for the first person to say something. “If you permit me, Alpha, I want to return to my room,” Arin stated. “Oh, Arin, I hope you enjoyed breakfast with us. I will see you soon,” Andrea replied as he signalled the guards to escort Arin out.“I also have something to do with Drogo; we will get going now,” Jason said as he stood up. “Drogo, see me when you get back; we have something to discuss,” Andrea stated as Drogo bowed before walking out with Jason.“What about you, Emeric? Won't you leave?” Andrea asked Emeric, who was focused on his phone. “I will be in my chambers for the rest of the day, Alpha, if you need me,” Emeric replied as he stood up.“Stay with us; I'm sure Aurora doesn't mind, and we do have a lot to catch
