The Alpha's Cursed Mate Chapter 140: what's going on?
The wind swooped my hair astray, blowing the skirt of my dress wildly. I stared up at the warm sun heating the valley of flowers below and the whole earth. The silence was surreal, or at least, ought to be surreal, but I felt nothing. My heart thumped but it simply did that. I felt like an empty jar. I couldn't remember anything and I couldn't feel anything.I pushed the stray strands of my hair behind my ears though it did nothing as the wind blew them away once more. Some strands splayed all over my face, making it hard for me to see. I swiped them off but they kept coming back because of the wind. A small emotion grew in my chest, causing my heart to beat faster and my eyes to darken. Irritation. I felt irritated.I could tell that I've never felt like that before. I could swear I wasn't one to feel emotions, to begin with. The wind is at fault. I should destroy it and it will no longer disturb me.I raised my hand to seize the air. My hand froze and anxiety filled my once-empty he

"Does this mean I saved Brie by absorbing her wounds?""You didn't absorb her wounds, Sapphire, you gave her life in return for yours," Scarlette said with her voice filled with malice. I looked up at her with eyes filled with horror. She sadly shook her head. "It's true. You could have died, Sapphire. If you weren't deathless, you would have died in Brie's place," Hendrix. My mind quickly went to him and my heart sank into my stomach. I was instantly overwhelmed with fear and panic and distraughtly tried to get out of their grips."Hendrix! I need to find Hendrix!" I screamed, thrashing to get away from them but they refused to let me go. "Let me go! Where's Drix?! I need to let him know that I'm okay! He'll try to kill himself again! Let me go!" Tears flooded my face and my body shook with my sob. I imagined what it must have felt like for him when he lost me again. I died once again and shattered my mate. What have I done? I didn't mean to."Jewels," a gasp left my lips. Scarlette
The Alpha's Cursed Mate Chapter 142: oblivious
My heart pounded in my chest as I made my way towards her house. The sound of my boots crunching the granites and Apple's wings fluttering in the background echoed in the quiet lane. Apple decided for some reason to fly while she accompanied me to Brie's house to check on the children and Scarlette stayed behind with Kira and Gemma to pack my bag.I was able to convince Drix to allow me to leave two days later, but he kept me locked in the mansion, refusing to allow me to make contact with anyone else. I was only allowed to say goodbye to Brie on the day I was leaving. It was unfair but I took it as the way he was dealing with the trauma of losing his sister and then losing me for the second time.My voluminous hair drill twin tails bounced as I walked. When Apple was getting it done, it reminded me so much of Brie and Grandma. They took the utmost joy in dressing me up. Grandma—especially—is a sucker for hairstyling. I decided to visit her after I visited Brie. Drix told me she was s
The Alpha's Cursed Mate Chapter 143: I'm fine
I fiddled with Dad's pendant around my neck. I decided to pick it out from my box and put it to use. Mum never transferred ownership to me because she discarded it, but I stole a bit of her blood and made her transfer it without her knowledge. Still, I never wore it because the expensive necklace would have been taken by someone in the pack.I was waiting by the vehicles taking me to Calon Falch. There were three long buses and an SUV. The Calon Falch members were returning with me and all the Guard-Gifted because Drix is a paranoid idiot. He didn't want to take any chances like he claimed. Simply ridiculous. What's even more ridiculous is how he sent Grandma to a different hospital outside the pack with Karen before dawn.When I went to Karen's house, I found it empty. I asked Drix and he informed me that Grandma's sickness kicked in so she was moved out of the pack to a doctor better than Alessandro and Karen. In an ally pack somewhere with no name. I was worried about Grandma. I un
The Alpha's Cursed Mate Chapter 144: you need to leave
He looked at me quizzically and I cocked a brow at him. "I just told you I can perceive your arousal which means others can as well," before my heart could sink, Zinnia pushed her persistent domination into me and I found my lips carving into a sneer."Your point?" He stared at me with a mixture of amusement and bewilderment. Inside I was dying of embarrassment. Oh my God! They can smell the mess I'm making!‘What's so bad about it? 70% of the adults smell like sex every damn minute of the day,’ she had a point there. It's normal to smell that from a mated or unmated couple. Having enhanced senses has its pros and cons."Zinnia," Drix said with a little laugh in his voice. "Give me back my mate,""We are one. Doesn't that mean the same thing?" He rolled his eyes with a frivolous smile on his face. I already knew he wouldn't fall for it and delay my departure. "You're not going to fall for it, are you?"He quirked a brow at me. "What do you think?""We're supposed to be in the honeymoo
The Alpha's Cursed Mate Chapter 145: welcome to Calon Falch
I opened my droopy eyes with a yawn, stretching my body on David's. I remembered dozing off in his arms after I cried my eyes out. I could feel my heart stinging from the distance created between Drix and me, but it wasn't enough to make me behave like a spoiled child anymore. I still miss him though. It felt like it had been weeks already."You're finally up, sleeping beauty," Gillian's gentle playful voice rang in my ears. I felt his fingers brush some tendrils of hair from my forehead and face and push them behind my ears.I fluttered my eyes a little more and sat up properly. "Yeah, what time is it? How long have we been on the road?""Six hours, but we're here already," the drowsiness washed out of my eyes immediately. I almost jumped out of the chair. I patted my face, trying to feel if it looked swollen, if I drooled, or worse. Gil chuckled. "Relax, you didn't drool. You look tired though,""I'm worried, that has a lot to do with it,""You're going to be fine," David said with
The Alpha's Cursed Mate Chapter 146: fixing Calon Falch
I tapped the end of the black and gold fountain pen on my lips, my eyes cast to the ceiling as I mulled over how to settle the problem in front of me. It'd been three days since I arrived at the pack and it was one hell of a work. The more I worked, the more convinced I was that I could be a great alpha.Alpha Springfield was indeed a wasteful spender. If I could resurrect him and kill him again, I would. I also discovered that the pack was going bankrupt and that was why he was pushing for the wedding. Calon Falch owns the world's best paranormal medical research facility. They handled most illness disturbing shifters and were the best, at least they were. I found evidence that proved that the research facility created the virus that caused an epidemic years ago. It was the same virus used against Drix's father. They started it and then pretended to have found the cure. They were also involved in illegal experiments on humans and other paranormal creatures. I was surprised to see the
The Alpha's Cursed Mate Chapter 147: a big mistake
"Alpha! Come sit over here!" Lilo, the youngest of Galatea's quadruplet girls shouted, waving her hand vigorously and almost standing from her seat. She's the one with the double bun-fringe hair. She was sitting next to Lena, the second eldest and the one with a straight double ponytail with an air fringe. Lora, the eldest quad with the high straight ponytails and wispy fringe, sat at the other side of the empty chair Lilo wanted me to sit on. As usual, the one with the wavy twin tails sat next to her father. She's a Daddy's girl. Her name is Luna.Just like their obsession with ponytails and fringes, Galatea and her husband have a thing for names that begin with the letter "L". Their first daughter's name is Lovett. I learned that she was a brilliant kid and could whip up deadly machinery from scrap. Her talent was wasted in Calon Falch. It'd take a while to get the pack fully functional again and talent like her is what I needed the most.I walked over to the seat Lilo was offering

Gillian returned from the mission and was extremely enthusiastic. He lifted me and spun me around, causing me to squeal with excitement and surprise. He put me down after three amazing spins and hugged me so tightly I saw stars.Drix snarled and the next second, I was snatched away from Gillian and he narrowly missed a claw slap. Gillian jumped back, raising his hands in surrender. "Whoa, calm down. I'm only hugging my friend,""You're registering yourself for a beating," out of nowhere, a scrawny girl with unkempt hair jumped in front of Gil, spreading her hands wide and creating a shield with her body. That startled Drix and me, and we looked at her confused."Stay away from Charming or I'll bite you!" The girl was probably my age or older and had a death wish growling at an alpha. She also smelled like… she didn't smell like a werewolf. I'd never perceived anything like her before, but again, she was a victim of a sick experiment. Still, there were a few reasons why a girl or anyon
The Alpha's Cursed Mate Chapter 204: extra prepared
I pressed the suitcase hard with my weight and managed to click the lock. I sighed as I stood up straight, putting my fist on the side of my waist and wiping the sweat out of my forehead with my other hand. "Phew!" That'll be all for shoes. Now what else am I missing?I looked around, calculating everything I packed and what else I needed. Hendrix sighed for the umpteenth time. He claimed I was overdoing the packing but he didn't understand. This vacation was important to me. A girl can't be too prepared. I need to make sure I have everything and anything. "We can just buy whatever you need if you end up missing something. We'll only be staying there for a week, Sapphire. You've packed more than enough,""We might stay longer and Scarlette and I are going to explore. We already have our bucket list, and Vecoria has hers too. I'm in charge of making sure we have everything ready– hmm, what else have I not packed yet?" I mused thoughtfully, completely forgetting that I was talking to so
The Alpha's Cursed Mate Chapter 203: worth it
"So it's not like I'm getting my powers back but someone like you," she nodded. "What use will that be?" I asked as the chains fell off."Zircon has been sleeping for too long, milady, please wake him up." I rubbed my wrist. "He knows a lot about curses so he'll know how to destroy the sword," "I still don't see the use," I grumbled.‘Oh fucking hell! Why are you so unnecessarily stubborn?!’ I froze. I blinked once, then twice, and more times. I was hearing things. I thought I was losing my mind. ‘You're not, bitch! I'm back!’I looked at Vecoria in complete shock, my jaw already hitting the ground. I was shocked out of my wit but one thing was for sure, I thought I was going crazy. I had to be going crazy because there was no other explanation as to why I could hear Zinnia's voice in my head. She died.‘I died as a curse, but Selene finally did something useful with herself and brought me back as a real wolf, sort of,’I fell on my butt, too shocked to remain standing. Vecoria panic
The Alpha's Cursed Mate Chapter 202: empty
I've never imagined my life without Zinnia. I'd gotten so used to her that I couldn't remember how it felt without her. I was reminded the hard way. I could feel the emptiness in my head the moment I opened my eyes. I felt naked and alone. The silence in my head left an incessant ringing in my ears and my mind was just there, empty.The intense feeling of emptiness devoured me so much that even when I noticed the shackles on my hands and legs and realised that I was in an unfamiliar surrounding, I couldn't care less. I was so nonchalant and unperturbed, but all I could do was sit down with my knees to my chest and stare into space. Zinnia was gone and I was alone in a dungeon, unaware of who my abductors were.I hadn't come in contact with anyone since I was locked away. My food was given to me through the doggy hole twice every day but water came once a day. I no longer had a wolf, I no longer had the powers of a blood wolf or a werewolf. I was just a luna with a barrier and healing
The Alpha's Cursed Mate Chapter 201: a hard decision
‘This is useless,’ Alaric said flatly as I flimsily held up the last book with a slight knowledge of Selene's offspring. Just like the rest, it only had information about things we already know. No artefacts, no books, nothing. What is the use of coming here?Jerry sighed and tossed away the book in his hand. "What a waste of time,""Tell me about it. Let's just leave, it's useless at this point," Gil grumbled. "Not even the slightest clue about any of her children who laid a curse or anything that gives a hint of it. We could be missing something—""We are not, I would know," I said firmly, dropping the hard book on the table.‘I feel weird,’ Alaric said with a whimper, scratching at the barrier of my mind. We've felt that way from the moment we stepped into the temple. Alaric had it worse. ‘Drix walk out of the library and turn right, then left, and right again,’‘Feel something?’ I asked, rising from my seat.‘A hunch,’ I gestured to Gillian t
The Alpha's Cursed Mate Chapter 200: talk to her
Chills ran up and down my spine, making me constantly shiver. Hugging my body did not help. I walked out of the tree, completely horrified. The reason why Zinnia knew so much, the reason why she was so different was because she was the soul of the curse Deianira created. I was petrified by it. I had most of the important memories from my life as Milena which consisted mostly of my time with Dad, a few times with my subordinates, and the time I spent finding an end to the curse. Most of my memories were of me as Sapphire.Sapphire is more human than Milena, and humans feel more emotions, they are vulnerable to pain. Sapphire had more attachment with many, unlike Milena whose world only revolved around Sapphire's father. The point was that I grew up with Zinnia. She wasn't just my wolf, she was a bigger part of my soul and I just learned that to end the long-lasting suffering, I needed to kill her. It was basically telling me to murder my sister, mother, friend, and child.I would have
The Alpha's Cursed Mate Chapter 199: the soul of the curse
I wiped off sweat from my forehead as I walked out of the room to find Scarlette. A lot of my memories were still missing and I knew exactly where I could get them. “Scarlette, where are you?”“The garden outside. There's something strange about it,” that was where I was going. I broke into a run. Finding my way was easier because I knew every corner of this castle. I stayed in it alone for years. One thing I now remember, the willow tree in Drix's garden is a fragment of the mother tree in my mother's gemstone garden. Then the pixie who happened to have been in danger must not have been a coincidence. She intentionally appeared there to create the gemstone garden already knowing I'd arrive someday.The original was far more magnificent than the copy. The garden was more like a forest, comparable to Brasher but bigger. Then she named the centre a garden. Different trees made of different gemstones and minerals stood firmly, with bushes, flowers, and other ground crops also made out of
The Alpha's Cursed Mate Chapter 198: Milena
My heart felt strange. There was a sense of familiarity to the castle and my heart didn't feel well about it. It felt bitter. Just like the cave, the walls were filled with pictures of Hiems, the person he was before he reincarnated. But unlike Liviana's, the pictures were decent and passionate, and a woman was with him in some of the pictures.The first time I saw her, I halted and stared at her with hatred. I couldn't tell why I felt that way but I've never felt the capacity of hatred as I felt for her. She had long sleek back hair that looked exactly like a moonless night with stars scattered all over the sky. Her eyes were more like galactic starry night than the galaxy itself. It was beautiful—she was beautiful. She had plump red lips and porcelain skin, a smile that could break wars or create them. She was a real beauty but instead of admiring her, I despised her.Hiems, on the other hand, was a tall man with golden yellow hair and sapphire eyes. His body status was similar to m
The Alpha's Cursed Mate Chapter 197: Edwin Strife
Kira opened a portal and it took us to a library. I found myself standing between two tall shelves. Certainly, we were trespassing because we didn't get permission to enter. Zinnia already gave me back my body but she kept her presence dominant.Kira began walking and I followed her. "Where are we?""Library of Congress,""Library of what?!" I screamed. She threw me a glare over her shoulder. I pressed my hand on my lips and looked at her apologetically. She returned her gaze straight ahead. She was wearing fluffy slippers so the sound of her feet was almost silent. I walked silently despite the shoes I had on. She walked urgently as if she was afraid something would catch up to her."How did you find him so easily? And how did Zinnia contact you?""You seem to still be ignorant of the kind of powers your wolf possesses," she took a turn. I increased my pace to catch up with her. "You know, I haven't had sex for months,""What brought that on?""Just saying," she shrugged, looking aro
