All Chapters of 50 Days To Love: Dying Alpha's Human Little Wife : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

"You must have a death wish, human."Alpha Owen didn't raise his voice, the words came out without a single form of emotion.I clamped my teeth together, forcing my chin up despite the cold sweat that I felt gathering on the back of my neck. My leg was throbbing terribly, "I don't know who you think you're talking to," I said, forcing my voice to stay as steady as possible. "And I definitely don't care about your titles as you know I'm not from around here… so it doesn't matter to me. Why did you invite me here Owen? What kind of game are you playing?"Owen didn't move an inch, he just kept staring down at me before he left out a sigh. "The invitation wasn't for you," Owen said and his voice was chillingly. "It was a message to Lucien and I guess he doesn't know you're here? Just as you know as well… I'm from around here and I can also do to you whatever I want.” he blent his head to the side as he looked at me with a focus I didn't understand, “I really don't get why he values you. W

Leah POV.“You must be joking.” Lucien raised his brows."I mean it, Lucien," I said, "I can't stay here anymore. I won't do it." Lucien's eyes remained locked onto mine. "You are bound to this place until I am fully healed, Leah. You know this.""Bound?" I let out a laugh, crossing my arms tightly over my chest to hide the tremor in my hands. "Bound to what? A palace full of people who treat me like a piece of garbage on the bottom of their shoes? No one here respects me, Lucien. To your elders, I’m an anomaly, to your court, I’m a filthy human stray, to Sophia, I’m a punching bag, to Alpha Owen, I’m just a cheap pawn to mock you with and to you I'm just a pet." I took a shaky step forward, wincing but I forced my chin to stay up."And let’s talk about the actual medical reality here," I continued, gesturing vaguely between the two of us. "Look at you! You're lying in bed in the middle of a territory gala, looking like you're about to collapse from systemic organ failure… I'm a huma

Leah's POV “You…”Adrian had immediately crouched down over the smiling kid, and leaned in close with an utterly scary expression. "What's your name?" Adrian had demanded."I…I'm Mark, sire," the boy squeaked out, he was now trembling like a leaf."Do you know what the Elders say happens to little wolves who say bad bad and silly things, Mark?" Adrian continued, his eyes were now wide open and he didn't blink. "They say the Goddess comes in the middle of the night, cuts off their heads, and sticks them high up on the canopy trees. And this human right here? She can be possessed by the Goddess at any moment to carry out her will." Adrian left me speechless with this… "You're going to give the poor kid nightmares, you know." I nudged Adrian’s shoulder slightly.Mark gasped in horror and was now looking at me like I was a demon wrapped in bandages, scrambled to his feet, and ran away like his tail was on fire.I giggled, shaking my head as we kept walking. "Seriously, Adrian. You looked

Lucien POV. Adrian didn't back down, I sighed, but before I could take a step back back to my room, Adrian reached out, his hand gripping my wrist with a tight grip."Can't we look for another way?" Adrian asked. "Please, Lucien. There has to be another way to break the curse."I looked down at his grip on my arm, then met his bloodshot eyes. "Who is asking this?" I asked, "Is it my Beta... her friend or?"Adrian didn't answer but he held my gaze for a long time, and then he slowly let go of my wrist, taking a step back into the dark side of the courtyard archway."I went too far with what I said," Adrian muttered, though there was no apology in his eyes. "But I'm not going to stop. I will not stop until we find another way to save you without ending her."He forced a smile and then turned around, his back facing me as he walked away into the corridor.I stood in the courtyard long after sounds of his footsteps faded, I just kept staring at the empty archway. I was still wondering wh

Leah POV.As if we weren't going through enough even rain started falling down on us."Fuck!" I cursed.The downpour stung my eyes, blinding me. I looked around looking for where to take him. We couldn't stay under the rain, he would only get worse.I pulled him along with me, my knees buckled. Even my left shoulder went completely numb as I carried him."Stay with me, Lucien," I wheezed. My ribs burned with every breath I took. "Just a few more yards. I can see a cabin there."His head hung low, chin resting against his chest as I kept pulling him towards the abandoned cabin, I threw my full weight forward, dragging him up the three rotting steps of the porch. The moment we cleared the threshold, Lucien’s knees gave out entirely.My arms buckled under his weight and we crashed onto the dusty floor together, the force rattling my teeth. I scrambled to my knees, chest heaving up and down so fast I could barely catch air. My hands shook, my fingers twitching, even my palms were slick
