All Chapters of Fated To The Rogue King: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Fiona’s POVThe vial coiled in my palm as I walked through the hallways.Their orders were clear—assassinate the Rogue King.How could I do that? Because they had this twisted notion that Isaiah and I were close.Close my foot.A man like him would not take betrayal lightly, and my family was asking me to do just that.Betray him. Kill him.My pulse went cold. I was a wolf, but I’d never hurt anyone. There was no way I could ever do this.But my mom’s words were clear—ones she whispered just before I left the dining hall like a secret only she and I shared.«If you do this right—you’ll be able to see your grandmother. I swear, Fiona. The healers said there’s a chance she’ll wake up soon.»The thought of seeing Grandma after months of isolation… Goddess, a part of me was tempted to do as she wanted.I found myself standing in front of Isaiah’s room. I didn’t even know how I got there. My mind must have been so messed up.Was he inside?Maybe he was.My hand reached to knock on the do

Fiona’s POVWith everything happening, I was starting to think that my parents had lost their minds. Surely, they wouldn’t lie about something like this.The way my mom smiled. Dad had held my hand. He hadn’t done that in years.And that look of pride—it was unmistakable. But it made me want to puke. That the first time they would acknowledge their daughter was after she murdered someone for their own interests.I left the dining hall without a single taste of the food. It was madness masquerading as gratitude.My first concern should be finding out what happened to Isaiah.I rushed back to my room, fumbled through my clothes until I found my nightgown. Then the pocket.Empty.My knees threatened to buckle under the weight of the possibilities. I clearly felt the vial in my pocket, and that was why I had left his room last night.I didn’t check again at midnight because I was too overwhelmed with my fucked-up life.Then it hit me. Memories from yesterday. Isaiah’s hands on my che

Fiona’s POVWhat sort of twisted thing did Kale want to say that made him discharge from the hospital so quickly? I stared at the clock. Its hands ticked. Each shift clicked hard against my chest, making it tighten with uncertainty.It was drawing closer to midnight.The rogues wanted me in the council. Alpha Kale wanted an audience.No one demanded an audience without concrete reason, and the worst part was that my father had agreed.I stared at the robe one last time the moment the clock struck twelve. A subtle reminder that it was time to get into my shackles. I hated it.“Fiona, what do you think you are wearing?” Dad asked the moment he saw me approach the car. His eyes glinted with anger.I had worn my previous robe. One Grandma had stitched herself with her own hands. Even if I was trapped, I needed to remind myself that there was someone who cared for me and I would do anything to keep her safe.“I specifically asked you to wear the robe I prepared. What is this garbage you ar

Fiona’s POV“Give me your first daughter.”The words kept ringing over and over until my ability to breathe nearly left me.My hand gripped the seat tightly. The whole world underneath my feet spun.At first, when they said the rogue emissaries wanted me here, I was stunned. But as it turns out… all of this was his idea.“Lord Isaiah, you know that is not possible.”Isaiah’s smile curled down when Dad spoke. Dad’s eyes darted with panic. Beta Magnus was this close to overturning the table.“Why not?”Before Dad could even speak, I stood up. Tears rushed up my eyes so fast they blurred everything. But still, I could see him. Despite being in a room with so many people, each breath I took brought his scent against my tongue.“I’m not for sale.”The words came out, then Isaiah raised his attention toward me. His expression was sharp and unreadable. Just like always. But for a moment, I thought I spotted something different flash through his eyes.Maybe I was imagining things.I thought h

Fiona’s POV He always found new ways to put me in impossible positions. Isaiah Thorne… what exactly do you want from me? Everyone was staring at me like whatever I was going to say was going to diffuse the situation. But what could I say? No, it’s not like that. As though anyone would even believe me. I opened my mouth, but Isaiah beat me to it. “Lady Fiona indeed has caught my eyes… but it's too bad. She belongs to another. There is no need to gossip like filth. In the Nightshade Pack, can’t a man and a woman have a good working relationship?” His eyes flickered toward me. I caught that teasing smirk as he sat back down. “Alpha Kale, keep spreading lies about Lady Fiona, and I will rip your tongue out myself.” He turned to Kale, who already stumbled back in fright. His face drained of colour, eyes wide as he nearly tripped over his own feet under the weight of Isaiah’s cold stare. “Besides, she is the only reason why I don’t tear your body into pieces.” Alpha Kale tried to
