Chapter 66UnknownRosa's eyes widened in disbelief. It was as if she was seeing a new version of her Uncle. No doubt, he was dubious and cunning, but he didn't think under pressure. Rosa was certain that the situation affected him a great deal, making him think under pressure. "What is his weakness?" She asked, scolding herself for getting lost in thoughts while he spoke. He hated repeating his words twice. "Ask me one more time and I'll cut off your left ear. I see no reason why I'm thinking hard and you can't recollect what I just said. Maybe it would be best if you were without ears. You are worse than a dummy!" He flared, panting hard as anger got the best of him. Rosa heard his words though they were like painful lashes against her skin. She wouldn't let it get to her. His solution to her current predicament was paramount. "I'm sorry, Uncle," she apologized, bowing her head in respect. Silas' heart softened a bit, making him clear his throat. "Damon has a hot temper th
Chapter 67UnknownOvertaken by Disbelief, Rosa slapped his hand off her body. Anger flashed in her eyes as shot daggers at him. Slowly, she retreated until her back touched the wall. As soon as she realized how shabby the house was, she pulled away from the wall. She didn't want to get stained from his shabby little house. A loud hiss erupted from her lips as she stared at him dead in the eyes."Are you insane? Do you know who is standing before you?" Rosa asked, reddened in anger. Maybe a quick reminder would fix his poor memory. "Do you even love your wretched life?" She added, fuming. "I believe my sight is working perfectly and if I'm not mistaken, I can see the Mistress standing before me," he replied proudly, a wide smile spreading on his rough face. "And you know the meaning of what you just said? The stupid condition you told me to meet?" Her voice rose as her anger doubled. "Perhaps you are drunk as usual." Her voice came out low. That must be the reason he asked fo
Chapter 68AuroraWho says marigolds aren't beautiful? Staring at the Colossus Red Gold type of marigold flower before me, I couldn't help but get lost in its rare beauty. The deep burgundy petals gilded with gold were enough for me to fall in love with it and brighten my full mood. Perfect! I couldn't take my eyes off the beauty right in front of me. Overtaken by pregnancy hormones, tears welled up in my eyes but I was quick to blink it back. I hated it when I let my emotions control me. I didn't want to lose it before a stranger. "They are worth…it," I stammered, collecting the bouquet from the strange man's hand. Waking up without Damon by my side made me sad, especially when he told me that he would be out for days. I didn't know how I would cope without him. It was like my happiness depended on him, but now that he was leaving, it broke me. But all wasn't lost. When I thought I would be miserable, the goddess sent me a friend. Though he looked dangerous, he seemed fr
Chapter 69AuroraAlarmed by his strange behaviour, my hands flew to his face, smacking it hard. Fuck! How could he?! I trusted him as a friend even though I just met him. If only I knew he was a fucking perv. My heart broke at the thought that my wolf tried to warn me, but I turned deaf ears. Tears blinded my eyes as I pushed him away from me, flinging his hands off my breast. It didn't take long before I discovered that his other hands clutched my waist tightly. His audacity! I wasted no time removing it from my waist before running away from him as fast as I could. My vision was blurry, but I didn't stop running. I wouldn't wait a second around him. I didn't know his next evil plan. I would fall for his tricks again. I hadn't left the garden when I noticed flashes of light from a distance. I halted in my tracks, turning around to have a closer look at it, but it was gone in the blink of an eye. Maybe it was my imagination. "Forgive me, Aurora, I got carried away," he
Chapter 70DamonI walked into the room, quietly closing the door behind me so as not to make a sound. Waking Aurora was the last thing on my mind as I didn't want to announce my presence. I heaved a sigh as I strode across the room, to the bed she was lying on.The soft snores and her rhythmic breathing confirmed that she was fast asleep. Perfect. Work was hectic, the packs' affairs were about to make me go crazy. The stress of work was getting on me, making me exhausted, irritated, and dull. Inhaling Aurora's sweet scent and snuggling her in my arms for some hours was the therapy my tired body needed. Aurora was my medication. She healed me. The buzzing of my phone ignited my anger, making me groan loudly. I've heard enough of the packs' affairs. They can fix themselves until I arrive tomorrow. Without bothering to check who it was, I dropped the call, switching my phone off before burying it in my pocket. "My King…" Jasper's words filled my head immediately, interrupting m
Chapter 71DamonDisbelief cloaked me like a garment, causing my heart to race at an unimaginable pace. Beads of sweat gathered on my forehead as Rosa's words kept ringing in my head. She had proof? If she had proof, then it was true. Never had Rosa shown me proof of any allegations she laid against someone. But this time, she wanted to risk it.If only I believe her. No, Damon. Rosa is a liar and a pretender who shouldn't be trusted! My subconscious yelled at me, but I still couldn't help the curiosity buried in my heart. "Aurora is cheating on you with Ray and I have proof." Her words floated in my head again, exposing my fears and confirming my doubts. If she was making this up, she wouldn't be so daring and convincing. Rosa was a lot to handle, but I could sense it when she was serious about a pressing issue. I was lost in thoughts as confusion overtook me. My next decision could make or break Aurora. Fuck! I didn't know whether to believe her, but deep down, I didn't
Chapter 72DamonI wanted to let out a deafening growl. I wanted to punch the wall hard until my fist bled profusely. I wanted to grab Ray by the neck and rip his throat out while I watched in satisfaction how his blood would gush out of his veins and stain my claws. I couldn't think straight, I couldn't speak. The fear of breaking down before Rosa got to me. The last thing I wanted was to let my guard down before her. Aside from Jasper, no one has seen me hurt and I preferred it that way. I felt a strange blockage in my throat, making me clear my throat so as not to make my voice appear shaky before her. I was the Alpha King and I was tough. Nothing could give me an emotional breakdown…maybe this one could. How could I blindly believe Aurora and the doctor?How could I be fooled the second time? I felt so stupid, so used. I let Aurora's naivety and innocence blind me. Of course, she would want to get back at me for separating her from her family. "Turns out I was right af
Chapter 73DamonRestlessness got the best of me as my eyes were glued to my wristwatch. I couldn't think straight. I couldn't give commands as usual. It felt like I was a robot, programmed to perform the task of checking the time. I almost lost it when the time began to crawl. It felt as if 7 am was impossible to meet. My jaws clenched as anger filled me to the brim, causing heat to radiate off my body. My body was tense and in a matter of minutes, I would lose it completely. My actions drew suspicion from my workers, especially from Jasper. It was so obvious that Jasper arched his brow at me, his eyes communicating to me, but I looked away, ignoring him. I wasn't ready for his unending questions. It didn't take long before beads of sweat started to gather on my forehead. "You might need this, my King," Jasper retrieved a white handkerchief from his breast pocket and placed it on my hand.I forced a smile at him, taking it before looking away sharply.I growled inwardly, sc

Chapter 138Bonus Chapter (Author's Pov)My mind reflected on the crazy event that happened a couple of weeks ago.It took a week before I could recover from the trauma. Thanks to the triplets, care, and support. At the end of everything, there was good news.Ray's burnt body was found, and he was successfully buried in the cemetery under my instruction.But Rosa's body had not been found. Reports came that she was burnt beyond recognition as the building collapsed, trapping her in it. I didn't know whether to be happy or sad, but the words of affirmation from my mates made me strong. As long as they were alive, nothing would hurt me anymore.“Enough of the tragic event, Aurora. Enjoy the moment with your mates,” Rue encouraged while I wasted no time, burying the thoughts. My eyes danced around the plethora of food that sat in the basket, waiting to be devoured. A giggle slipped from my mouth as my stomach growled. Not because I was hungry, but because I was excited to eat the fo
Chapter 137Aurora The sound of footsteps broke the eerie silence that hung in the room. The atmosphere shifted, and a deadly aura swept through my nose, signifying danger. I needed no soothsayer to inform me that my killer was near. But despite the darkness, I could sense a bit of familiarity in the strange figure that approached me. Judging from the scent, I could swear that I knew the person. Who could it be? Dim light flooded the room, and the strange figure came into view at once. My eyes bulged, and my jaws dropped in shock. My heartbeat accelerated at an unimaginable pace, and my face washed blank with confusion. “Ro…Rosa?” I stammered when I found my voice, pinning her with a look to be sure she was the one. “In the flesh, love.”I watched in horror as Rosa strode to where I was tied up before letting out hysterical laughter. Fear crawled over my body, prickling my skin. My blood almost ran cold the moment her smiles turned into an angry, sinister look. How could
Chapter 136Aurora “Can you reduce the AC a bit? I'm feeling a little cold,” I told the driver, rubbing my palms together to generate heat as I could feel goosebumps erupting from my skin. Once the air conditioning was reduced, I rested my head on the window, enjoying the smooth ride while my mind wandered back and forth to my parents' pack. I missed them. I wish I wouldn't have to leave them for a day. But I had to visit my mates as I have already spent more than the days I negotiated. I twirled my fingers around my hair idly as boredom accompanied me. A smile found its way to my lips as the events of the previous days flashed in my memory. I had a swell time with my parents and Eve. My dad and I went hunting and camping in the woods for three days after the party.I missed the experience. He taught me how to survive by myself for years in case of danger. I learnt how to make fire with dry sticks and sharp rocks in case there wasn't any provision for lighters and matchstic
Chapter 135Aurora “Mum,” I mouthed as I was unable to speak. It was as if my voice was seized by an invisible force. Tears ran freely down my eyes as I was blasted by my emotions. It was hard to control, I couldn't help but succumb to it. More tears poured from my eyes like flood the moment reality clicked in me. Mum.I haven't said that word in years. All I knew was pain, suffering a little moment of love before I was hit by abandonment. My throat was blocked, and my voice was cracked. My vision was blurry. Without moving an inch, I stood rooted to a spot, admiring my mother with teary eyes. Goddess, I missed her. She hadn't aged a bit. It was like her beauty doubled over the years, but beneath her perfect looking face were dark circles and eye bags lodged under her eyes. I needed no soothsayer to tell me that she had been crying during one of those sleepless nights. My grip tightened around the tiny strap of my bag as I tried to wipe my tears. Old memories crashed u
Chapter 134Aurora “What?” My jaws dropped in disbelief as I shot him a doubtful look, urging him to repeat what he just said.My heart wouldn't stop racing in excitement and anticipation as bits of his words echoed in my head. Maybe I was assuming things. He was still my master and he wouldn't make a grave mistake of releasing me since he wasn't sure if I would take it as an opportunity to flee. “What did you say?” I repeated as anxiety got the best of me. My heart wouldn't stop pounding as impatience ate me up from within. Could he just spill it already?!“I said you shall see your parents tomorrow and you are free to do whatever you wish as from now on without restrictions because you are my mate and I accept you…” I didn't let him finish the words on his lips before throwing myself on him. My joy knew no bounds, and my heart was swollen with happiness. My arms were wrapped around him, and my head dropped to his neck, inhaling his sweet scent before tugging him closer for
Chapter 133Damon“It's not a problem, I'm healing already.” I forced a smile, trying to convince her that I was alright when I felt the opposite. My jaws tightened as the burning from the hot coffee went straight to my brain, causing my hand to sting painfully. She frowned in displeasure before pain flashed before her eyes. She knew I was lying. She could feel part of my pain, thanks to mate bond. I followed her exhausted eyes that trailed from the spilled and broken cups and plates to the cabinet. A weary sigh rolled off from her lips as she hissed in annoyance. I was going to make her repeat breakfast the second time. I was a jerk, and my presence screwed things up. “It's not a problem, I can clean the kitchen and fix a quick breakfast in the blink of an eye. You wouldn't even notice that anything happened,” I flashed a nervous smile, hoping to impress her, but the frown on her face deepened, expressing her anger for wasting her effort. Maybe if I had stayed behind, this
Chapter 132DamonWith expectations and remorse heavy in my heart, I knocked the door before me gently. As expected, I was met with no response. I let out a sigh as my face dropped in sadness. It was starting to get frustrating, but I wouldn't give up, not after all I caused as a result of impatience and rash decisions. Sometimes, I wish I was calm and calculative, like Devin.But patience wasn't my thing. I killed my sons and lost my mate's affection. She treats me like a piece of furniture, ignoring me as if I never existed.It hurts so badly knowing she was happy without me. Her silence was enough to drive me insane.It was then I realized how ill I treated her all this while. I knew I was a bad mate, and I deserve more. She shouldn't be with me. She should be with my brothers, who made her happy and full of life. For weeks, the three of them were as thick as thieves. They hardly go anywhere without each other. I admired them.Despite playing tough, I wanted Aurora for m
Chapter 131Unknown Ray's excitement tripled as his plans were going smoothly without any interruptions.Seems getting rid of Rosa was a piece of cake. He should have done that a long time ago.He flashed a smile at her, revealing his ugly dentition while collecting the glass cups. “Would you play us a song, something light, a happy song while I pour us a drink,” he requested politely. Rosa fought back the urge to roll her eyes at his pretense. “Sure,” she nodded, dashing to the nightstand where her phone laid.She backed him as she surfed through her phone to get a suitable song. Swinging into action before Rosa got a clue, his fingers disappeared tactfully into his pocket. They reappeared with a piece of paper between them. Ray peeked at Rosa from the corner of his eyes to monitor her movement and body language. His heart wouldn't stop hammering against his ribs as tension got the best of him. Satisfied that she was glued to her phone, oblivious of his intentions, he quiet
