[Meagia’s pov]I stood there, frozen, just outside the dining room door, my heart sinking with each word I heard. The sound of Eskaal's voice mingled with the low rumbling statements of his father's cackle. Their conversation filtering through the cracks and crevices, reaching my ears like a bitter gust of wind. At first I was happy the way Eskaal responded to his father about me. His voice appeared determined indicating he would never leave me. I had no clue that he had been spitting all those things just to make me happy. Only if I knew Eskaal had no intentions of marking me as his mate.He broke my heart in a million pieces as I came to know he was not capable of loving me either. First it was Cinhard and now him, this time it ached more because I truly believed in his mate bond lies. It hurt more that he was able to love me but not properly. I was not mad at him that he did not want me, when I heard him whispering with his father at the door.I still have no clue how I was sudden
[Meagia’s pov]"Oh, save it!" I seethed, my voice laced with sarcasm, there was no way I was going to feed myself with his lies anymore. "I'm sure you have a perfectly reasonable explanation for lying to me, right? I trusted you, Eskaal. I confided in you, believed in the…the impossible stupid mate connection. And all this time, it was just a game to you."How could I let him ridicule me more than he already had? I blurted out everything I had in my head which probably came off wrong to him but that was the truth. There was no way I was going to bear his bullshit anymore. I knew something was wrong since he brought me here, it could not be because he loved me and was concerned about my safety."No, Meagia, it wasn't like that." He pleaded, his voice tinged with desperation. But how could I believe in anything he would say? What if it was again a lie? "I care about you, I truly do. But there are complications which I first need to sort out. Things you would not understand." Alpha Eska
[Eskaal’s pov]As I stood alone in the house, the echoes of our heated argument still reverberating in the air, I couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions swirling within me. Meagia and I had clashed, our words cutting deep like sharp blades, and now she had left. She completely misunderstood my words which was obviously my own fault and even bigger was letting her go.I was left to grapple with the aftermath, the weight of our confrontation heavy on my shoulders. Just as the silence threatened to consume me, my beta, my trusted right-hand man, entered the apartment. His presence brought a sense of familiarity and reassurance amidst the turmoil.I turned to him, my eyes searching for answers, and I inquired about the hunch I had shared with him regarding Meagia's true identity. Upon seeing him standing there obediently I shot towards him, while keeping my stern and assertive aura I asked him. Meagia’s departure left me feeling a mix of frustration and anger."Tell me!” I implored whil
[Meagia’s pov] I had nowhere to go now that Eskaal had broken my trust. I hoped that my father would perhaps take me in again after he heard my side of the story. I was sure that by now the gossip of me being alpha Eskaal’s mate must have spread already. And that would and should have justified that I was not sleeping around with random guys. As the cab pulled up to my house which I took after leaving his house, I felt a mixture of anguish and agitation over the whole thing. The argument with Eskaal had left me emotionally drained, and I longed for comfort and the only person after Lily I could think of was my dad. I hurriedly paid the driver and stepped out, clutching onto the last remnants of my composure. “Dad?” The door creaked open, revealing my father standing on the other side. His tired yet angry eyes mirrored the weariness etched into my own face. I pleaded with him silently, hoping he would understand the turmoil that I had just endured. “Dad, please.” I placed my hand ov
[Meagia’s pov]I stumbled across the road with the aim of being crushed by some vehicle. My thoughts were consumed by the heartache and turmoil that had enveloped my life. The weight of my emotions bore down on me, making each step feel heavier than the last.Lost in my own world of despair with no clue, I was taken by surprise when something suddenly covered my mouth and nose. Panic surged through me as I tried to protest, but my voice was muffled, and darkness closed in around me.When consciousness returned, I found myself in a place that was unfamiliar. The room was dimly lit for some reason indicating it was some cellar, the eerie shadows on the walls scared the hell out of me.Confusion and fear gripped me as I tried to piece together what had happened. How had I ended up in this strange place? I was practically kidnapped in the evening while crossing the street. But by whom? And why? For what reason?The unfamiliar surroundings only intensified my confusion and fear. I tried to
[Meagia’s pov]What was she talking about? How could she say all those words so easily as if I was involved in hurting her intentionally. The magnitude of her revelation hit me like a tidal wave, crashing against the walls of my heart. How easily Eskaal’s one decision labelled me as a deceitful person. The only people whom I called my friends my whole life were stripped away, leaving me exposed to the raw truth.To add more to my misery I was Eskaal's mate, his destined partner, and I had refused to believe his words, even fought against him. As Clara paused upon saying all that, a smile appeared on her lips while I could not lift my eyes off her. Everything seemed to be falling out of place in my life, within just one week I lost everything I had one after another.I listened in silence while contemplating whatever she said, the weight of her words sinking deep into my soul. Only if I had never met Eskaal nothing such would have been done in my life. By now the time for cusses had al
Hello, hottie chasers! Thank you for reading my book and admiring this fiction. No, don't fret the story hasn't ended yet, haha. The plot will thicken from this point ahead, we will witness madness, a bit of bloodshed, and some bigger misconceptions. I've tried my best to re-do the cliches in the way I, myself, as a reader wanted to read. Hope you all are enjoying them, though I'm still skeptical since there hadn't been many comments. Do comment or drop me a review if you see this. [Authors don't receive notifications of inside chapter comments] However, this note mainly is to announce that the story will merge now with Lily aka Lilyana Espenova and Zilver Zarcavier. The pace will remain fast and the world will get bigger now as characters will travel towards a different city. Because both families are connected. Stay tuned for madness!
[Meagia’s pov]I felt a knot tighten in my stomach as Clara's words hung in the air. They echoed through my mind, causing a wave of confusion and disbelief to wash over me. Clara, my best friend since teenage, looked at me with a mixture of anger and something else, something dark and calculating. "I hope it is not that hard to not believe, Meagia," she said, her voice dripping with false empathy. "Your father never told you, but from his reaction and abandonment must have made sense now. You were adopted, a trash picked from the forest still remains a trash."My heart raced as the weight of Clara's words sank in, she was right, my father's response did make sense now. It felt as if the ground had been pulled from beneath my feet, leaving me stranded in a sea of confusion. I had always felt different, out of place, but I never imagined that my very identity could be a lie.Clara continued, her tone taking on a persuasive edge. "And now, Meagia, you need to understand the consequences
