Fated to My Ex's Brother-In-Law Chapter 231
It felt like we had stepped back in time. The village looked like something from a fairytale. Cobblestone paths led past old cottages. Flower pots filled with spring blooms decorated the windows. Women wore dresses and aprons. The men wore old-fashioned clothes. A delicious smell from a bakery drifted toward us. We passed giant windmills and fields of crops glowing in the setting sun."Why didn’t Aunt Julie ever talk about this place?" I asked, amazed."We can ask the locals. Let’s find a place to sleep and eat first," Xavier said.As we walked, the villagers gave us suspicious looks. Then, a young man ran up to us with a big smile. "Hello, countrymen! Welcome to Riverwoods. I’m Jonathan Wright, but you can call me Jonny."He wore jeans, a shiny leather jacket, and sneakers. He looked out of place here.Without waiting for us to reply, he kept talking. "Riverwoods has great views, food, and friendly people." Just then, a woman passed by with a basket of fruit on her head. She scowled

Zoe's POV"This is your room. I hope you enjoy your stay here. If you need anything, you can come downstairs and ask me, Grand-Papa, or Grandma. Whoever is available will help you." Lilian handed us a quaint little key to our room and told, "I hope you understood all the house rules. If need to revise, there is a parchment on the side table to remind you. Have a lovely stay!" She bowed a little, raising her skirt on both sides like Cinderella, and walked away.Xavier turned the key and walked in, I followed him.It was only when I closed the door behind me that I realized that there was one room and two of us."Hold on, why did she give us only one key?" I asked with a frown."You wanted her to give us keys to all the rooms? Let's ask for a key to the kitchen while we're at it. Y'know for a midnight snack." Xavier said sarcastically and opened the backpack to pull out a smaller bag, probably his toiletries."You know what I mean," I said. Looking at his relaxed demeanor something click

After my shower, I saw a beautiful yellow sundress on the bed. It had clouds and sunflowers painted on it. There was a note on it too.Xavier wasn’t around, so I walked over in my towel and read the note.‘I called Jonny to do some shopping for us since we left most of our stuff in the car. He says the dress is handmade. I’m going downstairs to use Mr. Hill's bathroom. See you at breakfast.’I smiled without thinking. I brushed my hair and put the dress on. It felt like wearing the early morning sky. My tattoo was almost healed. The vines looked good—jumbled, like my life.I walked downstairs to find Xavier sitting at the breakfast table with Mr. and Mrs. Hill, and Jonny. There was a seat next to Xavier and one next to Jonny. Lilian was serving fresh bread.Everyone smiled at me, and for the first time, I felt like smiling back. I almost sat next to Jonny to annoy Xavier after last night, but when I saw how he looked at Lilian cutting the bread, I decided to sit next to him instead.“

Xavier and I walked toward the front of the house, and I couldn't help but stare at its condition. It looked abandoned, almost like a haunted house. A big, rusty padlock kept the place locked, and it seemed like no one had stepped foot on the property in years."So, what now?" Xavier asked, looking around. We were at a dead end. Aunt Julie was probably the last person to own the house, and without her, who else could help us get inside?"We could climb the wall," I suggested, eyeing the average height walls.Xavier raised an eyebrow. "You’re not seriously suggesting we trespass, are you?""Don’t judge me. And don’t act like you’ve never trespassed before," I said, raising a finger playfully. "And before you say you haven’t, remember who did a ritual to get into a nightclub with me, uninvited."Xavier shut his mouth, clearly defeated. She was right. Besides the nightclub incident, I knew how many times he'd gone to extreme lengths to get information for his pack.Before we could plan m

Zoe's POVMy head was pounding as if I had a hangover. I did not remember drinking enough to have a hangover since MJ's twentieth birthday party. I groggily opened my eyes. I tried to bring my hand up to my face to rub my eyes and focus but I couldn't move my hands."Xavier?" I called out trying not to panic just yet.I remembered going to Riverwoods and staying with the old couple that I thought were weird for some reason but Xavier didn't. I remembered ditching the tour guide Jonny to investigate Aunt Julie's old home. And then, I had opened a door and fainted because there was something else mixed with dust. "Xavier?!" I called out again, my voice conveying the panic I was trying to control because everything was too dark to see anything to know where we were. I only knew that I was sitting in a chair and my hands and feet were tied too tight for even my super strength."Zoe?!" I heard him."Xavier!" I called back."Zoe, Goddess, are you okay?" He asked.He was worried about me wh

Warning: The contents of this chapter contain mentions of trauma, child abuse, and torture. Reader discretion is advised.]Xavier's POVMy instincts are rarely ever wrong. I should've listened to Zoe. I should've been more careful. I need to get out of here.'Or maybe, you should shut up for a second so, at least, one of us can think of a plan!' Spike said sarcastically as he paced around in my head, making me feel dizzier than I already was.I wanted to give him a satisfactory answer but the truth was, being bonded beyond escape brought traumatizing memories for me. It was becoming hard to keep my cool as Mr. Hill showed up with his caring smile followed closely by Jonny who was pushing a trolley full of various surgical instruments, butcher tools, and herbs.I knew well what was coming next.He asked questions, I either stayed silent, asked a question in return, or replied with sarcasm. None of those were appreciated by Mr. Hill. Who soon lost patience and threw his first punch.I i

Zoe's POV"You know you can stop it all, you just have to tell us what you were looking for. Who sent you? We've got nothing else to do. So, either get comfortable or start talking." Lilian said as she handed yet another tool to Mrs. Hill.The metal itself wasn't toxic to me, but the way she peeled my skin and poured vinegar on my exposed muscle, made me scream.My scream was accompanied by Xavier's scream from the adjacent room. The fact that we were so close and getting tortured simultaneously, brought little comfort.I wanted to tell them that nobody sent us, but I was so angry, all that came out was a bloody sneer, "Screw you," That seemed to enrage the women more.Mrs. Hill slapped me hard across the face with a hand covered in silver chains. It slashed my cheek open making me groan. I realized as soon as they had started with me that they expected me to be a werewolf. They were using wolfsbane and silver. But those things didn't hurt me the way they would a normal werewolf and Mr

Zoe's POVI was shocked and confused for a second before I realized something was wrong.Lilian stood with a grimace on her face looking at the necklace that had fallen from her hands. Mrs. Hill was still leaning over me with a glare full of hatred and ready to tear my heart out. But they weren't moving. I watched them for a hot minute, "Um, guys, in the middle of torture here?" I tried.Nothing.They looked like they had suddenly turned into statues. I focused my hearing on their hearts and I heard two hearts. They were alive. But they weren't moving. Why weren't they moving?It didn't matter. What mattered was that I had gotten the chance that I was waiting for.I bent down, trying to get to the I.V.s in my wrists. After removing them painfully, I sighed. It was going to take a while to flush out all the poison that they had pumped into me. "Dahlia?" I called out to her since I hadn't heard from her in a while.'I'm here,' She replied. She did not sound well."I need to get out of
