Yvonne’s throat bobbed as she swallowed, and my gaze dropped to her hands—she was nervously wringing them. And then, she finally spoke. “Meadow… you have to understand that I was with Alaric during a very dark time in his life. He wasn’t always like this, you know? He could feel. But then, all of a sudden, he couldn’t. And that was when I came into the picture.” My throat tightened. “What we had was… it was real. Until it wasn’t, I suppose. And even though I’m the one to blame, he also—”

shook her head and dropped the doll like it was carrying the plague. “What is it?” Rose asked, starting to develop a fear in the pit of her stomach. Issabelle looked up and whispered a prayer while crossing herself, “it’s a hex doll miss - i thought, maybe, seeing it under the bed it was an old toy but then I saw a better look and i must have screamed. Looking up at Rose, Issabelle recounted “then you said His Lordship’s item is on it...” she trailed off into silence and sat down. “What does that mean?!” Rose panicked. Issabelle looked at her with the saddest eyes and said “it means His Lordship, you’re pa is being cursed by someone.” Rose just stared at Issabelle, maybe her maid was the on

If my father hadn't been the architect of his parents' destruction? These questions led to others, more personal and unsettling. What kind of husband might Alexander Blackwood have been to a woman he had chosen for reasons other than vengeance? What would it feel like to be wanted by someone like him,not as a pawn or a punishment, but for herself? Such speculation was pointless, of course. Our reality was what it was,a marriage built on revenge, resentment, and mutual accommodation. Not a foundation for genuine connection, let alone something as improbable as affection.

It was the only thing I could smell ever since our encounter. “You will never have her!” The darkness within me growled. “You will never have the love of a mate. I will not allow it!” It made me remember my last mate, and how she died in my arms, bleeding all over me. I had killed her. I had sworn never to take another lover, another mate. I had locked my inner emotions far away that even the faintest smell of a mate would not be perceived for as long as I had lived. But this girl, caught in a wolf’s trap, had easily unlocked centuries of dedication and hard work. From the moment I met her, something in me awakened.

“Should I go on my knees and thank you for cheating behind my back instead of speaking up like a man? After all these years you just woke up one morning and decided you wanted to cheat instead of speaking up…” “What was I supposed to say that I loved you but not in that way? That I no longer found you attractive? That I’m done and how would you have reacted?.” Xabier angrily spat out and I felt a rope snapped in my mind. “Attraction? Love? You don’t cheat on people you claim to love Xabier, you tell them the truth! You don't find me attractive after wasting three years of my life? Until this morning you were confessing your fucked up love to me… How could you when you knew you didn’t like wo

I whispered the headline and hovered my finger over the screen, contemplating on if Ii should open the article. My heart was pounding by the second and with a deep breath, I tapped on it and it opened instantly. I swallowed and swiped up. The headline was the first thing I saw then a few words about the writer followed. I scrolled to the start of the article and started to read; Son of billionaire business man, Anthony Hogan and Heiress of the Hills Global Communication company were spotted having a romantic dinner date at a restaurant and the pair looked like the perfect couple.

I thought about how they were Matched, whether they knew each other before the ceremony, if they were childhood sweethearts, or if they were familiar faces you see on

Alpha Lyon narrowed his eyes and something flickered in them as he gazed at her trembling form. "I'm sorry Derek but she's mine already." He said and showed Derek the mark on her neck.
