Checkmate The Betrayal นิยาย & เรื่องราว

Not wanting to place all their hopes on the curse alone, they also bewitched Matthias into thinking another woman was his mate. When Alessia could recognize Matthias as her true mate, he was already under the thrall of this other woman, and Alessia’s pain from the constant betrayal of her mate bond caused her to end up taking her own life, instead of being forced to live with the pain indefinitely. When Matthias felt the pain of his true mate’s death, it broke him out of the thrall of the woman who had enchanted him, but by this time, it was already too late. Alessia was gone, and he too, in the shame of his ultimate betrayal, took his own life.

we echoed again, but Dominic's confidence wavered visibly. "One night... might be impossible," he stammered, his voice betraying his anxiety. I could feel his wolf's distress mirroring my own, a nervous energy pulsing between us. "How about one moon cycle?" Dr. Sutherland's expression hardened further, his disapproval radiating like a physical force that made even Dominic, an Alpha, shrink back slightly. Dominic swallowed hard, his throat bobbing with the effort. "Understood—I guarantee delivery tonight." With a final ice-cold glance at me, Dr. Sutherland growled, "What kind of Alpha have you chosen for your mate!" and turned away, his coat flapping in the evening breeze.

While I was as calm as an undisturbed lake on the surface, beneath me was a troubled sea tossing back and forth with waves of emotion. I wanted to turn around and yell at him to demand answers, to ask when he had stopped loving me and how he could betray me. But I don't care anymore, knowing that he chose to betray me and toss away everything we've built out the window changed nothing. I wouldn't give him the chance to fill my head up with lies. I got Up the stairs, then I heard a heavy thud, and my heart went up to my throat.

After a moment, I continued, “As you can see, my vision has returned. And, as you can also see, I have no choice but to dissolve my engagement with Rowan.” “Long live Princess Mia!” the crowd erupted, chanting in support. “Today was supposed to be a joyous occasion. According to my late mother’s wishes—the former queen of the Moonshadow Wolf Tribe—after the Moonlit Ceremony, we were to announce my werewolf coming-of-age ceremony and my coronation as queen.” I sighed, pausing for effect. “But as you’ve all witnessed today, my fiancé Rowan and my sister Evelyn betrayed me. So instead, I will proceed directly to the Moonshadow Wolf Tribe Queen's coronation!”

Damien's room was silent except for the air conditioner's hum. he rotated the amber liquid in his glass while his eyes remained locked on the photograph. Blackwood glared at him through the photograph with a stern expression mingled with kindness which appeared frozen in time. A relentless beast of memory from that day 24 years back tormented Damien. The expression of violent anger on James's face appeared to Damien in his nightmares. The betrayal Serena committed continues to feel like a cutting pain inside his chest. Damien felt his jaw tighten as he looked at the incriminating letter his father held in his hand.

His touch was soft, yet it remained setting off something she couldn’t quite ignore. “You want freedom,” he replied, his voice lower. “From her shadow. From the part of you that wonders if you’re more like her than you want to admit.” Ava pulled her hand back. “Don’t psychoanalyze me.” He laughed, the sound deep and low. “It’s not psychoanalyzing. It’s recognizing someone who’s just as stubborn as I am.” They worked late into the night, piecing together the maze of agreements and betrayals that related Evelyn Sinclair to Roman’s past. Ava couldn’t refute his insight, but she kept her guard up, refusing to allow his appeal distract her from the task at hand.

he said, his voice trembling with simmering anger, “if that child is mine, I’ll claim him. No matter what.” Our eyes locked, his determination clashing against my resolve. I held his gaze, my voice deadly calm. “Betray me, Coby, and you’ll lose everything—your pack, your title, your life. Don’t think I won’t fucking destroy you.” The room fell silent, the weight of our words hanging heavy between us. Finally, his gaze dropped, submission marking his defeat. But even as he stood there, resigned and cowed, I knew this wasn’t over. Not by a long shot.

But since he no longer loved me and even betrayed me, I had no reason to continue helping him with his dreams. Still, I had to calm him down. I couldn't let him know that I was planning to sell off all my shares. So, I looked at him emotionlessly and said, "Fine, we won't divorce." Aaron grinned gleefully in satisfaction. "Isn't that great? I'm sorry I can't give you the love you want, Katrina, but I can still give you the money that you want."

“You’ve broken the one rule that matters: loyalty. You think I built this empire on lies and betrayal? You were never meant to take this much, and now you’ve crossed a line that can’t be uncrossed.” The other two men, Marco and Luis, were visibly trembling, their eyes downcast. They knew there was no redemption, no second chances. But Hector wasn’t ready to give up yet. “We can fix this,” Hector said, his voice rising in panic. “We can give the shipment back. We’ll take care of the buyer. We can make it right.” I stopped pacing and turned to face him. “You can’t fix betrayal, Hector. It’s not a mistake. It’s a choice.”

She had spoken them so softly, nearly tenderly, as if she was conveying a slow death. But there was no benevolence in it, not for him. It was a betrayal , one he had been as well dazed or as well proud to see coming. And now, it was late to do anything around it. He stopped under the shade of a closed shop, wiping the rain from his face, in spite of the fact that it didn’t stop the throb in his chest. His phone buzzed in his pocket, a brutal update that life didn’t stop just since his world had disintegrated.
