Tormenting Love from My Alpha Mate Chapter 10 Fainted Again
Selena's POVI thought about just walking away and not having to look Xander in the eye anymore, but the consequences of that might actually be what Xander said. My father's pack would fall apart overnight. I didn't doubt for a second that Xander had the power to do that. And I'd been living this groveling life with the ultimate goal of just wanting the best for my pack. So for the sake of the pack, I had to drop the high profile I had just taken and admit my mistake to Xander. Once this thought surfaced in my mind, all those sufferings and pains I once endured haunted my body like maggots in my wound, causing my soul to tremble."You did this?" I took a deep breath and turned my head to look at Xander. "Do I have to report everything I do to you now?" Xander gave me a cold look, a sneer on his lips. "It's fine for you to target me, but why target my father? What exactly did he do to piss you off?" I clenched my teeth and grimaced as I responded to Xander. "You're not even quali
Tormenting Love from My Alpha Mate Chapter 11 Liam's Concern
Selena's POVI was a little confused to see Liam. I remembered that I was supposed to on the way to my mentor's hospital, so why was I here?"Don't think too much about it. I found you passed out on the floor on my way to work. What happened?" Liam asked with concern, noticing something unusual in my expression."Nothing, maybe it's just the aftermath of that awful illness." I struggled to sit up and lean against the hospital bed."Is he still asking you to help with the blood transfusion?" Liam asked seriously. He was serving a bowl of hot soup and froze when he heard my answer."Yeah, but I refused." I looked at Liam; he was pure, like a blank sheet of paper.We met on campus. Liam attracted a lot of attention with his excellent medical skills and outstanding appearance, becoming the dream guy of many girls. But over the years, even after joining the workforce, he hadn't shown any intimacy with other girls. If he hadn't repeatedly emphasized that he was straight, many people might h
Tormenting Love from My Alpha Mate Chapter 12 Humiliation
Selena's POVWhen I arrived home in a muddle, I found Xander sitting in the hall, watching me teasingly. It seemed as if he had expected me to have little to no solution to my father's problem.I realized that even if I hadn't fainted on my way out the door and had followed my mentor to the Institute as usual, I would have been forced to leave soon after due to a variety of "accidents." That was Xander's style. If he wants to treat someone well, he can get them even the stars in the sky. But if he doesn't, even your every breath seems superfluous to him."How's the job search going?" Xander inquired without looking up, his head bent over his phone. It was a banal question that would represent concern in any normal conversation, but coming from Xander, it had only one purpose: to hear my embarrassing story."Xander, have you had enough? What do you want from me?" Recognizing Xander's true nature, I stopped pretending and questioned him with my head held high."Didn't you know all abo
Tormenting Love from My Alpha Mate Chapter 13 The Treatment
Selena's POVHearing Xander's words, my eyes widened in disbelief. It turns out that everything he just did was to humiliate me."You really are as shameless as your disgraceful father. Get lost. I haven't had enough of toying with your father and his pathetic pack."Xander wore a mocking smile as he picked up his clothes and delivered a cold parting shot before turning to leave. I sat alone in my empty room, uncontested tears streaming down my face.I couldn't remember when it started, but Xander seemed to have suddenly developed a hostile attitude towards my father. I had tried to defuse it, but every time my father was mentioned, Xander became hysterical. Slowly, his hatred transferred from my father to me. That was the beginning of our split.The question then becomes: what did my father ever do to anger Xander so much? If I were to ask Xander directly, I can only imagine his face full of contempt. From what I understand, my father was just an old acquaintance of Xander's father,
Tormenting Love from My Alpha Mate Chapter 14 Xander's Anget
Selena's POVI spent the next few days peacefully and quietly in the hospital undergoing Liam's treatment. The healing process was as difficult as Liam had warned me it would be. The Mate Bond between Xander and me was becoming extremely weak, and the excessive amount of blood consumption was completely depleting my strength."So what should I do?" I asked.I sat in the treatment room and watched as Liam rattled off a half-dozen analyses about my condition. The seriousness on his face was really testing my patience."I'll start by replenishing the losses in your bloodline, but I'm afraid I won't be using anesthesia-type drugs during the process to keep it pure and free of any impurities," he said."Uh, okay," I replied, giving Liam a gentle smile to ease the self-loathing he carried in his heart.The pain I've suffered over the past few years was far harder to bear than these physical tortures. I thought of a time when I had accidentally angered Xander. He made me kneel outside in a r
Tormenting Love from My Alpha Mate Chapter 15 Xander's Secret
Selena's POV"I don't know what you're talking about; he's just my doctor," I responded coldly, giving Xander a blank stare.Xander stood tall and coldly surveyed Liam, who lay collapsed in a pool of blood. Suddenly, he twisted his head closer to my ear, his icy voice sending violent shudders through my entire body."Doctor? Stop making up such poor excuses. It's because of him that you want to leave me, isn't it?""Don't imagine me to be as rotten as you are."I glared up at Xander, a sneer flashing in my eyes before I turned around, ready to leave."Aren't you going to care about your man?" Xander asked indifferently, his brow furrowing slightly.Ignoring Xander's question, I didn't linger on Liam for a second as I turned and walked towards the villa. Though worried sick inside, I realized showing any concern for Liam would only provoke a more violent reaction from Xander."Don't worry, he won't die," Via assured me, noting I had glanced at Liam unintentionally. She confirmed he had
Tormenting Love from My Alpha Mate Chapter 16 The Truth
Selena's POVThe scene before me nearly rendered my brain speechless. I had contemplated the situation between Xander and my father, but now it appeared far more dire than I had imagined."Selena, look in the top right corner. Your name is mentioned there too."When I was still in shock, Via reminded me to focus on the screen.The lighting was dim, and unlike Xander's excellent night vision, I struggled to see clearly. Stepping back, I tried to decipher the entire screen."Xander is a totally insane," Via exclaimed, her fear palpable.The large screen displayed a complex web of relationships. Xander's parents' black-and-white portrait hung in the center, surrounded by images of various characters linked to the accident that had affected them. My father's picture was prominently featured, accompanied by extensive notes, likely detailing his whereabouts before and after the tragedy."Via, do you think my father could be responsible for this?"The information overwhelmed me, making it di
Tormenting Love from My Alpha Mate Chapter 17 The Argument
Selena's POVAfter our last confrontation in the basement, Xander and I fell into an uneasy silence. He didn't harass me as before or bring Lisandra around to flaunt their affection.Sometimes, during chance encounters at the packhouse, Xander and I would pause, the air thick with unspoken tension. Whatever was happening between us, it was changing us in subtle ways."Via, do you think Xander will ever treat me the way he did before?" I asked softly."That's not necessarily true. It seems like you've reached a reconciliation, but in reality, it's only just begun."Via gently licked her fur, then absentmindedly explained to me."I don't understand what you mean?"I stood by the window in the room, my eyes subconsciously scanning the open space below for any sign of Xander."Maybe before you didn't understand Xander's motives, but now it's clear. It's because of your father that Xander is interested in this...""It's not because of my father! There's no way my father did that!"I couldn

Tormenting Love from My Alpha Mate Chapter 30 Council of Elders
Selena's POVSure enough, after Xander finished his interview, word spread within the pack that he was going to hold a meeting in the evening to explain himself to the Council of Elders. With the future of the entire pack at stake, the meeting venue was already packed before noon. As the center of this event, I should have been nervous, but I wasn't.Looking at Xander's handsome yet indifferent face on my cell phone screen, I felt only a deep chill in my heart."Are you ready? We're the center of attention tonight. Come on, try on the dress I prepared for you."Gloria took out a red gown and paired it with a white tulle overlay, embellished with sparkling diamonds. As she gently swung it, it created a graceful arc."That's nice. You'll look great in this," Liam commented, nodding in satisfaction as he stood next to her."Trust my aesthetics. You'll surely catch their eyes tonight," Gloria said, folding her arms across her chest with a smug look on her face."So what do I need to do la
Tormenting Love from My Alpha Mate Chapter 29 Gloria's Plan
Selena's POVEver since Xander slapped me in the face at the packhouse, I'd been in the hospital for days, and Xander hadn't contacted me again as if I didn't exist. If this had happened before, I probably would have been demoralized and confused by useless treatments. But this time, I had Gloria with me, and she made me feel a lot better."You're suffering here while that bastard Xander is out there living it up. I'll contact a few media outlets to expose him so everyone can see his true colors," Gloria said, sitting on the edge of her bed, boredly checking the news about Xander on her tablet. The internet was abuzz with the incident; it had caused quite a stir.Lately, Xander had been bringing Lisandra to all the events he attended, with no sign of me. The media speculated that the last attack was likely due to a love affair."This skanky bitch makes me want to puke just looking at her. She's always rubbing her boobs against Xander's arm. Even though Xander's no slouch, he looks li
Tormenting Love from My Alpha Mate Chapter 28 Tell Gloria Everything
Selena's POV"Quickly, tell me what happened to you! We haven't seen each other for a few short years, and you've become so thin."Gloria was my best friend. After Xander and I became mates, she went abroad. In just a few short years, no one could have expected such a drastic change."No, it just happened naturally," I replied.Seeing Gloria still looking so innocent, I can't imagine how sad she'll be when she learns the truth."Are you kidding? Quickly pack up and get out of the hospital. These few years abroad have suffocated me! I'll come back, find a super handsome guy, and go completely crazy!" Gloria sat at the end of my bed with a big smile on her face.Watching this playful routine, I was in a trance, as if I had suddenly returned to our student days. Back then, Gloria and I agreed that if one of us got married, the other would follow within a year, so that our children would be about the same age. If they were both girls, they'd be good sisters, and if they were a boy and a g
Tormenting Love from My Alpha Mate Chapter 27 Gloria Is Back
Selena's POVWhen I woke up again, my head was aching almost to the point of exploding, and the air smelled strongly of disinfectant, which made me want to dry-heave. It looked like I was in a hospital room."You awake?" Liam, who heard the commotion, asked as he observed the data from the instruments."Sorry, I'm just..." I gently brushed my hair back, trying to clear my head."You don't have to apologize to me. Your body is your own, but I don't think you should have such an irresponsible attitude." Liam's eyes moved away from the instruments and met mine. His serious and earnest gaze made me a little uncomfortable, and I hung my head like a child who'd made a mistake."As I've told you before, the treatment is successful at this stage. As long as you can hold out for a few more sessions, it will slowly restore the activity in your blood," Liam continued, looking a bit angry this time."I'm sorry, but... some things are out of my control." I pursed my lips and slowly curled my knees
Tormenting Love from My Alpha Mate Chapter 26 Be Slapped
Selena's POV"Xander, you're finally back! I just asked Selena to clean the room; I didn't expect her to do such a thing."Seeing Xander return, Lisandra hurriedly jumped over and took his arm, making sure to squeeze out a few tears to appear pitiful."Selena, if you have any grievances, you can take them out on me. Why did you do such a thing? You know very well how important this is to Xander!"Lisandra cried her eyes out before turning towards me and blurting out her accusations.I was a bit speechless at Lisandra's false claims and just grunted coldly before twisting my face aside, lowering my body to clean the broken glass on the floor."Is that so?"Xander inquired coldly, his eyes cold and cruel, like he was looking at a dying prey.The air seemed to freeze in that moment, but I paid no attention to Xander, continuing to clean the glass before carefully putting the effigy of Xander's parents back in place."What did I ask you?"Xander's voice grew harsher as he walked quickly o
Tormenting Love from My Alpha Mate Chapter 25 Lisandra's Trick
Selena's POV"Alpha, the area outside has been cleaned up, but……"Terry walked in, his expression as blank as the silence that followed the wailing outside."But what?"After the gruesome killings earlier, Xander's body bore shocking scars, but his coldness now seemed almost capable of freezing the air around him."They were all dead soldiers. Sensing defeat, they chose to take their own lives."Terry frowned as he spoke."They all died?"Xander's voice rose instinctively, causing everyone around him to suppress their reactions."Yes. We couldn't trace the source. But this incident was my fault, and I am willing to accept the consequences."Terry bowed his head respectfully towards Xander.Xander turned to look at Terry, remaining silent for a long time. No one could guess what was going through his mind.Then Xander's gaze shifted to me, scrutinizing my condition as if assessing my well-being. I couldn't shake the feeling that there was an ulterior motive behind his apparent concern
Tormenting Love from My Alpha Mate Chapter 24 I Saved Him
Selena's POVWhen I was attacked by the Rogues, my first thought wasn't panic. I knew I could never have attracted this much attention on my own; their targeting of the packhouse was clearly an attempt to threaten Xander by holding me hostage. What they didn't realize was that the relationship between Xander and me was already dead.When those vicious Rogues broke through the defense line, I felt no panic, only relief. Yet, deep down, I secretly hoped that Xander would arrive in the nick of time. So, when Xander did appear in front of me, I was filled with disbelief."Stop fidgeting and think about what to do," Via spoke up, reminding me of the critical situation. She understood the gravity of the moment as well."Xander, are you okay?" I couldn't help but ask as I looked at Xander, who was shielding me."These mongrels are delusional if they think they can take me down," Xander grunted coldly before turning back to scrutinize the Rogue in front of him.Looking at Xander's solid back,
Tormenting Love from My Alpha Mate Chapter 23 Are You Worried About Her
Xander's POV"Alpha, the previous enemies have surrounded the packhouse. It's too dangerous to rush there now."I had just given the order when Terry immediately stopped me. Fresh blood covered his body, staining his white uniform a deep red, but there was no doubt that the blood came from the Rogue who attacked us earlier.As the Beta of the pack, Terry's strength was unquestionable, but this situation was much grimmer than we had faced before."They obviously planned this attack in detail, timing it perfectly to exploit your weakness and..."Seeing that I was unmoved, Terry continued, "There are just too many of them this time. Most of our people are at the camp. I've already notified them to head this way. There's nothing of importance at the packhouse, so when our larger force arrives…""Go back!"I grimaced, interrupting Terry. I didn't know why, but when he said there was nothing important at the packhouse, my heart felt like it had been violently stabbed. Selena's face unconsci
Tormenting Love from My Alpha Mate Chapter 22 Sudden Attack
Xander's POVWith the coldness I'd shown Selena over the past few days, the people in the pack had gradually stopped treating her as the Luna. Coupled with the omega work I had arranged for her earlier, almost everyone looked at Selena with a hint of contempt. After all, no one in the pack had dared to disobey me yet.But I'd noticed that whenever I was about to lose control of my sanity, the wolf Sol inside me was always the first to come out against me."That's because Selena is your mate. The two of you are closely linked. If Selena gets hurt, you will also suffer accordingly. Not to mention, you're the one who initiated the trouble," Sol explained bitterly. "This is why the mate bond between you and Selena is getting weaker and weaker. The damage is mutual. You are now impaired in strength, and Selena, who has endured this for years, is definitely not as strong as she used to be," Sol said, letting out a soft sigh.This made my heart feel inexplicably heavy. Once, I was certain th
