Be My Second Mate or Die Chapter 60
Ellie.It wasn’t until we arrived that I realized that Archer had changed Gilly’s hideout spot. I’d been following Theo blindly until we arrived at one of the rooms in the quarters—where I was supposed to live before I was taken back to the palace.GIlly’s room, however, was on the basement floor of the building. It was also the only room there, with moderate furnishings, like a bed, and a small couch and that was it.I don’t know why I half expected Gilly to still be bound when I arrived, but I was happy she wasn’t. Her eyes lit up when she saw me.“Ah, if it isn’t my most prized discovery,” She said with a smile, causing Theo to tilt his head in confusion, looking between us. I understood his confusion. He wasn’t there when I shifted into my wolf, and no one had spoken about it since then, so much that if it wasn’t that it happened to me directly, I wouldn’t have believed it happened.“Are you here to take me out of here?” She asked, standing to her feet, but I passed her a small sm

Ellie.I broke out in a cold sweat the moment those words left Gilly’s lips, the words echoing in my head even after some minutes had passed.Gilly had noticed I was having a hard time with the conversation and decided that it was best to change the topic, which I was grateful for, but it didn’t make me feel any better.“I guess we have one thing in common,” Gilly suddenly said after talking for almost a minute without a response from me. I blinked, shook my head, and directed my gaze to her with raised brows, promising her my undivided attention without words.“How so?” I asked.“Well, we both know and understand the brutality of witches,” she said. I fell quiet for a few seconds, just watching her, and then I realized she was right.On the day we met, she did say that she was taken to be used as an experiment to create tainted wolves, but she survived because she was no ordinary wolf.“I guess you’re right. We both know how brutal they can be, but more you than me. I can only imagin

Ellie.“Where are you off to, pretty?” Julie asked, wiggling her brows. I nudged her side and winked.“Where else do you think she’s off to with all those baked goods?” I asked. Gilly’s face colored instantly.“My bad, I almost forgot,” Julie covered her face, and we all laughed.It had been two weeks since Gilly’s release from confinement, and Julie and I took it upon ourselves to see to it that she was living a comfortable life in the palace as much as we could.It didn’t take much, however, because Gilly, like Julie, was highly extroverted, she knew how to make friends and have fun. Before long, we became a little trio, and I thought she was okay with that, until she came to me one night, expressing her wish to pursue her mate, who still kept his distance from her.Gilly began taking care of Alpha Tristian; making breakfast for him, cleaning his room, attending to his complaints, and even baking goodies with no one else but him on her mind. While it was endearing to see, it was sti

I helped Gilly to her room, tucked her into bed, and comforted her until she slept off.As I watched her snore lightly, I realized that even the most powerful, could feel helpless in some situations.I furrowed my brows, my mind drifting to Alpha Tristian. Obviously, he had some feelings for Gilly, but something was holding him back from accepting her.I dashed out of Gilly’s room in search of Alpha Tristian. I wasn’t sure how the banquet ended, but wolves were filling out by the time I passed by the hall, making it a little harder to find Alpha Tristian. However, I found him in the library—thanks to a maid who saw him go in there—standing by the window where the silver moonlight entered, brightening up the room a little more than the candles did.“Alpha Tristian,” I called him out and he spun in my direction, but he turned away immediately, stuffing his hands into his pockets.“Ellie,” he smiled, “I was just leaving,” he said and moved to the side. He was avoiding me.“We need to tal

Archer.“I asked you a simple question, Victoria. Did you or did you not send those maids to harm Tristian’s mate?”I had had enough of Victoria, and everything she stood for. I never forgave her for trying to harm Ellie, then the news came to me that she was behind the maids attack on Tristian’s mate.“I–”“If you dare lie to me, I’ll have your tongue,” I barked harshly. The corner of my lips tipped up in a smirk as she jumped backward at the sound of my voice.“You never showed me any affection,” she yelled, throwing her arms in the air. Irritation flared within me.“You think I wanted to marry you out of affection? You are delusional!”Her eyes widened in shock and betrayal as she watched me, but I couldn’t care less about her feelings.“You did this to embarrass me, and my family,” she cried out, “You chose a maid, an OMEGA over me!” more tears spilled from her face.“Victoria, leave. The wedding is canceled. It will be best for you to return to your father’s pack tonight, than le

Archer.I woke up to the sound of a knock on the door. Heavy, urgent knocks.Untangling myself from Ellie, I jumped out of bed and put on my pants to answer the door. Theo stood behind the door, a worried expression on his face.“Good morning, Your Majesty. Forgive me for intruding, but there’s an urgent matter at hand,” he said with a bow.I looked back at Ellie’s sleeping figure. I would’ve liked to stay in bed with her for much longer.“Let’s go,” I told him, heading up to my room without bothering to wear a shirt.“What’s happening?”“Alpha Black and his daughter, Victoria are spreading rumors about the royal family.”My jaw tightened. So instead of staging a coup, this was what Black chose to do.“What are the rumors?” I asked as I opened the door to my room.Theo went silent. I turned to him with a brow raised in question and confusion.“They spread the information about the royal family concealing their research on tainted wolves and about the witch. The rumors say you have joi

Ellie.I woke up to the worst kind of rumor. The kind of rumor that mocked my deepest wish, that I buried deep within my heart.Julie and Gilly were on my bed, staring at me with wide eyes, while I tried to make sense of what they just said: Archer claimed, in a meeting with the council, that I would become Queen, and rule beside him.Now it would’ve been believable if I had not spent the last few months being told I would never become queen or anything close. The most I could be was Archer’s concubine, so where did that come from?“I don’t think the rumor mongers heard him well. He’d never say that, especially to council members,” I turned to Julie, “You know what I’ve been through with him. You’ve witnessed all he did to keep me hidden, right? So this doesn’t make any sense.”I threw my hands over my head.“Well, I would’ve thought it false if it did not directly come from an elder’s mouth. He was complaining about Archer’s decision to some other elders,” Julie said. It was my turn

Ellie.I woke up with a frown on my face the next morning for two reasons.One, I never liked my birthday because I had no one to celebrate with. Two, because the kingdom was still under a lot of tension and pressure.Just hours ago, Victoria’s Father’s punishment was passed. He was set to be executed, and with his family expelled from Cora pack, and demoted to Omega statuses, stripped of everything including their wealth. The same was true for the nobles involved. Those who were Alpha’s of packs were stripped of their positions and forced to serve under other packs as Omegas.The sudden change caused unrest in the palace, especially because since he exposed the treason, Archer hadn’t been seen, and no one knew where he was.“Emma just told me she's bringing cake up, I can’t wait!” Julie moved her shoulders in a little dance. I chuckled at the view.Julie and Gilly came to keep me company as usual, but especially so because it was my birthday. Gilly even went as far as making her famo

Ellie.I had been feeling different for weeks now. My appetite changed, my energy fluctuated, and lately, even my wolf seemed quieter than usual. I suspected the truth but hadn’t dared confirm it. Not until this morning.Standing in front of the mirror, I pressed my hand against my lower abdomen, feeling the faintest of curves. A small smile crept onto my face. There was no denying it now—I was pregnant. My heart fluttered with excitement. Archer had always wanted children, and now, the thought of telling him made my pulse race. But I knew I wanted to tell in a way that would make the moment special, so I went in search of my friends.“Julie! Gilly!” I whispered as I rushed into the room where they were chatting. Both of them turned to me with curious looks.Julie’s eyes widened, immediately sensing something was different.“Ellie, what’s going on?”“I think…” I began, but then corrected myself, “No. I know. I’m pregnant.”Gilly gasped, her hands flying to her mouth.“Oh, Ellie! This

Ellie.Archer’s eyelids fluttered open slowly, the usual sharpness in his gaze softened by tiredness. Relief flooded through me as I smiled down at him, a warmth spreading in my chest.Without thinking, I hugged him, wrapping my arms around his neck tightly. His body was still weak, but his arms managed to slip around me, holding me close.He smirked, his voice low and slightly hoarse.“I really don’t know how I could ever live without you, Ellie,” he said, his lips curving into a half-smile, “You’ve saved my life more times than I can count.”I leaned back just enough to look into his eyes, brushing a few stray strands of hair from his forehead.“That’s only because you saved my life countless times when I was an omega,” I replied softly, my fingers still lingering on his skin.“Do you know… if you hadn’t taken me away from Crimson Pack that day, Vito would’ve killed me.”His brow furrowed, a shadow passing over his expression.“I meant what I said when I told you Vito and Nadine dru

Ellie.Archer stepped forward, fists clenched at his sides, muscles tense.“What do you want, Seraphina?” His voice was low, brimming with barely contained rage.She laughed softly as if we were sharing a joke, “Oh, I have so many plans,” she replied, a hint of malice lacing her words, “But most importantly, I’ve discovered something extraordinary during my time, going around,” her sinister smile intensified as she gestured to the far side of the room.I followed her gaze and felt my breath hitch. There, carved into a stone, was an intricate seal that pulsed with a dark, ominous energy. It seemed to throb with a life of its own, casting a strange glow that began to illuminate the room.“Behold,” Seraphina said, her voice dripping with excitement, “the seal of forbidden magic. A power so great that it could change everything.”“What are you planning?” I asked, my heart racing. I could sense Ru’s agitation, a low growl reverberating through our bond as we moved closer, studying the seal

Ellie.“This must be the doing of the witches,” Tristian said and I nodded.Since witches were known for experimenting with animals and even wolves, I believed it was possible.“Get ready,” Archer commanded, his voice steady and calm. His eyes flickered red, taking in every detail of the surroundings.Suddenly, the creatures appeared—animals twisted into monsters by dark magic. Their glowing eyes and grotesque forms lunged at us from the palace, snarling and snapping.Ru surged forward, and I shifted in an instant, claws tearing into the first beast that came at me. It was a tainted. I ducked as it swiped at me, saliva dripping from its mouth, I struck hard at its side, sending it skidding back. Its howl filled the early morning air, but it wasn’t done yet. It twisted back toward me, fury in its glowing eyes.Archer moved beside me like a protective rock.“Don’t let them surround us!” he shouted, his sword flashing in the sunlight as he cut down another beast, “Stay on the move!” He h

Ellie.The dawn was just breaking, casting a soft golden light over the assembled warriors.They had come from all corners of the kingdom in their large numbers, their expressions set in serious determination.Archer stood at the front, his presence commanding as he addressed them.“We are not waiting for the witches to come to us,” Archer’s voice boomed over the crowd.The warriors stood at attention, their eyes fixed on him.“We’re going to hunt them down. We’re going to seek them out, and we’re going to exterminate every last one of them.”A murmur of approval rippled through the crowd, the tension building in the air. It had been a week since we discovered the serum worked. I’d spent three days on lockdown, recovering after giving so much of my blood for the serum. It hadn’t been easy, but now, after my rest, I felt ready. More than ready. I needed to be out there with them.Beside me, Tristian shifted his weight, his gaze focused on Archer. He hadn’t wanted to leave Gilly’s side,

Ellie.“We found a way to make it work!”Archer and I exchanged a look, a slow smile forming on both of our faces. The tension that had been hovering over us for days seemed to lift just a little.“Show us, then,” Archer said, his voice calm but eager. He slipped his hand into mine as Julie gestured for us to follow her.We walked through the halls of the research center, the walls gleaming white under the fluorescent lights. The scent of chemicals and something distinctly metallic filled the air, making my nose twitch. My mind raced, trying to piece together how they’d done it—how they’d managed to do it.Julie led us into the main lab, where an animal—a sleek, muscular dog—stood next to a warrior wolf. The warrior looked calm, though I couldn’t help the slight edge of concern that rippled through me.“Is it safe to use a warrior for this test?” I asked, squeezing Archer’s hand a little tighter.Julie nodded, her smile not faltering for a second. “Completely safe. We’ve run simulatio

Ellie.In the following days, leading up to a week, I had a routine.Every morning, I’d submit more blood for testing, spend hours in the lab with Julie and the others, searching for a way to make it work, then I’d head over to the training grounds for training with the warriors.And Archer worried more with each passing day. I could see it in the lines forming on his face, the way his hands would linger on my shoulders, as if grounding himself to make sure I was still alive and well, when I returned.Today was no different. I had just returned from training with the other wolves, my muscles sore, when I found Archer in our room, waiting for me. His eyes flicked to the bandage on my arm before locking with mine.“This can’t go on much longer, Ellie,” he said quietly, standing from the chair he’d been sitting in, “If Julie doesn’t come up with something concrete this time, I’m putting an end to it.”I sighed, pulling my hair out of its messy bun and running a hand through it.“Archer,

Ellie.“Ellie, can I talk to you? Alone?” Archer asked, his voice was soft but firm.I nodded, following him out of the research lab. Julie stayed behind with the other seven wolves, their faces a mix of shock and curiosity.The door closed behind us, and the silence that settled between Archer and me felt heavier with each passing step. He wasn’t saying anything, his jaw tight, and I found myself pressing my lips together, wondering what he was thinking.We walked in silence through the halls until we finally reached our room and when the door clicked shut, and I turned to face him, the tension between us lingering like a storm about to break.“Are you angry with me?” I asked, unable to keep the question to myself any longer.Archer shook his head, but his eyes were serious as they met mine. He reached out, taking my hand, his touch soft despite the weight in his gaze.“No, I’m not angry, Ellie. I just… I need to know what your plan is.”I swallowed, my heart racing a little.“I’m wi

Ellie.As Julie and I walked out of the royal hospital, I could feel my heart banging loudly in my chest.But just as we stepped through the entrance, we encountered Jacob, who was making his way inside. He bowed respectfully, a warm smile breaking across his face as he greeted us.“Your Highness, Lady Julie,” he said, his tone a mix of formality and friendliness.“Jacob,” I replied, returning his smile. “How are things?”“Busy, as always,” he said with a slight chuckle. “But I can’t complain because everyone is going through it.”“You’re right,” Julie nodded.“Has there been any progress on your end? about Gilly?” I asked and he shook his head.“She wasn’t poisoned, so there’s no antidote she can be given. She wasn’t cursed, so there’s no ritual we can do to lift the curse. I think we just have to let her regain consciousness herself,” He said and I sighed.“Thank you, Jacob,” I told him and with a nod, Julie and I continued on our way, leaving the hospital behind.But even as we wal
