All Chapters of I'm Your Brother's Wife Dear Ace : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Lyra I thought I would die. I thought it was my end... just when I had decided to blind them with my face, just when I had accepted the fact that I was born this way and nothing could change it. Just when I realized that people are the ones who use my beauty for their own interests, not me.I would die, I thought.But then, a massive black wolf with gray eyes knocked the other wolf out. His fur was jet-black, and he was twice the size of the beast that had been about to attack me.My hands were still trembling when the wolf shifted back into Ace. As he approached me, my eyes wandered down his naked body before I violently jerked my gaze away. It was my first time ever seeing a naked man, and my breath hitched completely, a fierce heat rushing straight to my face.In the distance, I heard someone’s voice shouting about bringing clothes and supplies.Ace again. It was Ace when I was attacked by the maid. It was Ace when everyone else was staring at me. It was Ace defending me from Drav

Lyra After giving me a look of deep disappointment, he turned and left the hall in anger. I knew down to my core that anybody in his position would be furious with me. Who wouldn't be? I half-expected him to never want to speak to me again.I forced myself to walk side-by-side with Draven, keeping pace as he laughed and talked with several Alphas from neighboring packs. Some faces I recognized from previous gatherings; others were completely foreign to me. Around us, the grand hall was bursting with life. Conversations echoed off the high ceilings and people danced without a care in the world, but inside, I was slowly dying.Why me? I kept asking myself, the question repeating like a cruel mantra all through the night.When I finally found a moment of freedom to escape back to my chambers, the first thing I did was sit down and quickly write a thank-you letter to Ace. I desperately wanted to write more, to somehow justify my actions and explain myself, but I knew deep down that there

Lyra “My Lady, what were you doing outside in the dead of night? I was worried sick, but luckily Sir Ace brought you back,” Elin said, her fingers working gently as she combed through my hair.“Outside?” I asked, my brow furrowing in deep confusion. I hadn't been outside last night. In fact, I distinctly remembered falling asleep the moment I returned to my chambers. How could I have been awake and wandering around outside without knowing it? I thought, a cold knot forming in my stomach.“Seriously, my Lady, did you completely forget?” Elin moved back, looking down at me with a mixture of awe and concern. “You were fast asleep when Sir Ace carried you back in his arms. And you even had a nasty wound right on your neck.”“What happened?” A wave of sharp panic hit my chest. Was I really out there last night? I tried to reach into my mind, to grab onto any memory of the darkness, but I couldn't recall a single thing.Suddenly, Elin let out a sharp gasp, her hands trembling as she stared

Lyra Help me, someone… anyone, I begged silently in the dark, before slipping completely into a deep, helpless unconsciousness.“Lyra.”I jumped, my heart leaping into my throat at the sudden sound of my name. I turned to find Ace standing right in front of me, his eyes scanning my face with intense worry.This was a memory of the night before, a memory I had completely forgotten. Now, it came crashing back into my mind while I lay unconscious.“All I want is for you to trust me. You are my m…..”Yes, he had wanted to say something, but I had passed out. How did I forget this? All of this? I had even spoken to him… he knew I could speak.But what use were these memories now, when I was about to be stripped of my dignity? What use was any of it?“Wake up, Lyra,” a sharp voice pierced the dark, and the dream of the night before came flooding back and I jolted awake, gasping for air, that was the reason I had gone outside into the night. I looked around the room and I saw Ace was there

Lyra What on earth did I do that made Alpha Ace think I was amazing? Was I really that incredible? I wondered, a small tugging at the corners of my lips. But Elin’s voice quickly brought me out of my thoughts.“My Lady, I just remembered that the ceremony isn't over yet,” Elin said, her eyes shining with sudden seriousness. “So we can't really go to the Royal Physician just yet. But right after the Midnight Fire ritual, we are going.”It's just a tiny bit of memory loss, I reasoned with myself, my smile lingering. Was I really that cool?I was just about to ask Elin to tell me exactly what I had done to make Ace think I was so incredible, but before the words could form, my chamber doors were violently flung open. Draven stood on the threshold.Pure terror flashed through me, and my fingers instantly clenched the fabric of my gown, my heart hammering wildly against my ribs as I silently thanked the Moon Goddess that I hadn't spoken out loud yet. He stepped into the room, his ey
