CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE.CATANIA'S POVOne thing has been making me laugh all morning, the fact that Alpha Nolan blinked an eye at me before walking away after saving me from a difficult task that the evil maid made me do. I told her I would not be able to scrub floors, but she did not listen.I know they dislike me, but do they really have to give me that kind of difficult work? Growing up, I really didn't have to do any serious house chores and now that I have suddenly been pushed into them, I feel like I'm going to die.I cannot thank Alpha Nolan enough for saving me. I was already at the verge of breaking down when he intervened. Thank the moon goddess he has limited me to doing just laundry. I swear it is way better.All I have to do is walk around and collect dirty laundry from his room and that of Alpha Kai's and have them washed and when they are dry, I iron, fold and go and give them in their bedrooms. That, I could do with.I started with Alpha Nolan's laundry and I swear when I
CHAPTER THIRTY.CATANIA'S POVNolan pushes me with so much force that I almost fall to the ground. I stagger for a while before gaining my equilibrium and when I do, I look at him with the most sorrowful look in my eyes. My heart shatters into a thousand pieces when I see him wiping his lips and looking all terrified.Did what just happened mean nothing to him?Did he not feel the sparks and the connection?Why has he chosen to be so blind?"Why is no one answering me? What is going on here?" Mia asks yet again and Nolan turns to face her."Baby, I can explain""And I would really like to hear the explanation you have to give. How could you Nolan, how could you do this to me?" She asks with a croaked voice and I give her a furious look. Mia is the worst person there is on this planet earth."I swear I don't know what happened, I perceived your pheromone on her and I couldn't hold myself back" He explains as he walks over to Mia who has her arms crossed over breast and an eternal frow
CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE.CATANIA'S POVI tried to stay strong the whole day, but my heart and mind won't let me. My mind keeps replaying what happened in the morning in Alpha Nolan's bedroom and my heart keeps hurting.The way he pushed me away when Mia walked in, the guilt on his face was something I could not fathom. He felt like he was betraying her, when he was betraying me instead. I don't know what I hoped to get from all that explanation I gave to him, but his response broke me completely.When we kissed, I could see in his eyes that he could feel the sparks and the connection. The way kissed me made me think that he had finally come back to his senses, but the things he said to me afterwards made me understand that there is no way he can ever be convinced that Mia is not his mate.It hurts.It hurts so bad to have love and defend another woman, especially my treacherous sister. It kills me whenever he chooses her over me during a fight and it hurts to think that he knows the truth

CHAPTER THIRTY-THREENOLAN'S POVCatania said a lot of things which I chose to pay a deaf ear to, but my mind has not been at rest. Her words keep replaying in my mind and I feel like I'm beginning to lose my sanity. When she gave me the two clothes to smell, I did as told and indeed, one had the smell of the faint pheromone I always perceive on Mia and the other had no smell at all. Also, I always noticed that Mia's clothes never seemed to have actually fitted like it should, but that never rang any bells in my head. I just imagined they were her choice of clothes.When Catania and Mia were both in that room, the only person whose pheromone I could get was Catania. It was pulling me to her and only the moon goddess knew how much I was resisting. The moment she asked to know which of their names my wolf was calling "mate" at that moment, Ander screamed her name in my head, but I said nothing. I don't even want to talk about the things I felt when I kissed her.All of this cannot be h
CHAPTER THIRTY-FOUR.NOLAN'S POVI walk into my bedroom and expect to see Mia lying on the bed as usual, but I scan around and notice that she is nowhere to be found in the bedroom. On normal days, I would be alarmed about her whereabouts, but today, right now, I don't even have the strength to worry about her.Everything I have heard and witnessed today has set my mind in chaos and right now, I don't even know what to think about anybody!Nigel just told me that Catania is my mate and not Mia. If that is true, that means I have punished my mate all this while for absolutely no reason and Mia, whose side I have been on, is an imposter.It means my mate is a stealer.Everything seems so true and yet so false and I don't know who and what to believe.If Mia truly isn't my mate and Catania is my true mate, then I am finished indeed because I doubt if Catania is ever going to forgive me for everything I've done to her and for Mia, this will be the end for her!The door to the bathroom open
CHAPTER THIRTY-FIVE.CATANIA'S POV.I have been monitoring each and everyone in this castle for weeks now and I have mastered everyone's routine. The servants retire for the day after dinner, at exactly eight pm. Everyone is expected to be in the servant chambers after that. The guards then switch shifts. The onse who have been protecting the caste during the day, go home to rest, while another set takes over.I am also fortunate enough to have made a friend this past week who showed me a secret massage in the servant quarters which leads to the back of the castle. The servants use it as an emergency exit during times of trouble. I was also told there are several other hidden emergency exits in the main castle.I can't help but look over my shoulders every now and then as I rush through the tunnel that leads to the back of the castle.I'm escaping.Nobody knows about this plan of mine and I pray it works. I cannot stay in this castle and work as a servant and watch my mate treat my s
CHAPTER THIRTY-SIX.CATANIA’S POV.“Mia!” I call in fear as I rush over to my sister’s lifeless body lying on the ground, caring less about the fact that there are two more vicious rogues to be dealt with. I don’t know what has come over me, but I don’t seem to care about that fact. I calmly nudge Mia’s thick, fury mane with my hand, trying to wake her up, but she’s not moving even a bit. I'm terrified.Soon, I hear growls behind me and when I turn to look, I see the rogues walking towards, snarling with saliva drooling from their mouths. The wolf who just killed my sister has blood all over his mouth and some parts of his body fur is stained as well. They must be feeling victorious after having one of us killed.One of the rogues flies on my body and gives me a bite on my arm and I scream in pain and push him off me and that’s when I realise that I'm not in the right mind to fight. I'm still shaken by Mia’s death. If I try to fight, these rogues will have me killed. I rush up to the
