I Signed a Marriage Contract, Not a Love Triangle のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 91 - チャプター 100

“Why aren’t you answering me?”Irene’s heart was still pounding. She had woken up to both Kael and Ares standing at the end of her bed, and somehow this was getting weirder instead of better.Kael reached her first and pulled the blanket down.“What are you doing?”Ares caught the bottom of her sleep shirt.Irene looked from him to Kael. “What the fuck is wrong with you two?”Neither bothered answering before Kael leaned in and put his mouth against her neck, right where he always went. Irene sucked in a breath as Ares pushed her shirt higher.For a few seconds, she just sat there, shocked and absolutely confused.But both men hated each other. They could barely be in the same room without arguing, threatening each other, or making her regret being there with them. Now Kael was helping Ares get her shirt off like this was completely normal.She sucked in a breath when the shirt came over her head, and Irene barely had time to process that before Kael started pulling her sleep shorts d

Irene sat on the couch in the dark living room with an open bottle of beer in her hand.Half an hour had passed since the dream spit her out, and sleep was clearly done with her for the night. She had tried lying there, changing positions, and even pulling the blanket over her head like that could somehow erase the memory of Ares and Kael in her bed at the same time.It had done absolutely nothing. Her body was still embarrassingly awake, and every time she closed her eyes, some part of the dream came back with enough detail. Ares’s mouth against her wrist. Kael’s behind her. Both of them touching her without trying to kill each other, which should have been the most obvious sign that none of it had been real.Instead, she had ended up out here at nearly three in the morning with a beer she did not even want, waiting for exhaustion to catch up with her.She took another sip and grimaced when she realized it was already getting warm.“What am I doing with my life, Mr. Mustard?” she as

Kael didn’t give Silas time to answer back.The change tore through Kael so fast Irene barely understood what she was seeing before the first crack of bone hit her ears.“What the fuck…” Irene gasped.Kael folded forward as his spine bowed beneath his shirt and his shoulders widened hard enough to rip the fabric straight down the back. Wet pops followed while his body forced itself into another shape, dark fur pushing through his skin in thick waves streaked with silver.Irene’s hand flew to her mouth as she backed into the counter.“Holy shit.”Kael’s arms lengthened until his hands struck the floor, fingers distorting into paws as black claws scraped across the boards. His jeans split along the seams while his legs stretched and reshaped beneath him.Irene had known what Kael was from the beginning. She had seen the gold in his eyes, his teeth, and those half-shifted hands. None of it had prepared her for watching a human body get taken apart and rebuilt in seconds.Kael’s jaw pushe

“You’re not going back there.”Irene lifted her head from Kael’s chest.They were still sitting between the trees, his arms around her. She had finally stopped shaking badly.“What?” She pushed herself upright, though one of his hands stayed at her waist when she wobbled. “My stuff is there.”“Your door is in pieces, half your furniture is broken, and Blackveil knows exactly where you sleep.”“I’m aware.”Kael’s jaw tightened. “Silas walked straight through Valcieri security and put his hands on you.”Irene looked down at the bruising around her wrist.“And where was your fucking husband when Crewe got inside?”“He came, Kael.”“After.”“Fine,” Irene said. “Obviously I’m not sleeping at the apartment tonight. Take me to my husband then.”“No.”She stared at him. “What do you mean, no?”“I mean absolutely fucking not. Valcieri had people around your building. Blackveil got through them anyway. Until I know how, I’m not sending you straight back into the same security that just failed.”

The bedroom door opened, and Irene lifted the glass in both hands before she even saw who was there.Kael stopped in the doorway.Relief hit so fast her arms nearly dropped.“What in the actual hell is wrong with you, Kael? You couldn’t answer me?”Before he could reply, a second man stepped into view behind him.Irene recognized him immediately. She had seen him with Kael before, including at the council gathering, always close enough that she had assumed he was important. They had just never been formally introduced.The man looked at the glass Irene was still holding.“I see this is going well.”Kael glanced over his shoulder, then stepped farther into the room.“Irene, this is Rowe. My beta.”Irene lowered the glass.Rowe carried two bags and gave her a small nod. “Lady Valcieri.”Irene stared at him.“Irene is fine.”Kael looked between them. “Wonderful.”Rowe’s mouth moved slightly before he held out one of the bags.“Clothes.”That got Irene’s attention.Inside were soft pants,
