All Chapters of Despicable Mate: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

KIARA’S POV “How are you feeling, Father?” I asked handing him a bowl of soup.He eyed the soup with distaste and said, “I am fine now… really… I don’t think I need this stupid soup…”I couldn’t help but chuckle at his expression. He abhorred the herbal soup but Valence had insisted that he should drink it at least for a week.I sat beside him, took a spoonful, and placed it near his lips saying, “I promise I won’t ask you to have the soup tomorrow onwards. Please have it today…”“Fine!” He said with a disgruntled expression before taking the bowl from me and guzzling it down in a single draught.I was about to get up and leave but he held my hand. I hissed due to the pressure on the blisters. He opened my hand and kept gazing at it for a while.Tears glistened in his inner eye as he raised his head to look at me. He m

KIARA’S POV Every muscle in my body fought to transform as the howls reverberated in the environment. My bones crackled as my wolf struggled to take control but she was too weak.Pure agony coursed through my body overpowering every single coherent thought I had. I screamed at the top of my lungs but there was no one around to listen to me.The struggle between my weak wolf and my human body continued in a loop. Before long the pain blinded me and I was thrust into a state of complete darkness.The next thing I remember is waking up on the cold floor. I groaned as I pulled myself up. The dizziness weighed heavily on me as I fluttered my eyes to clear my vision.The sun was visible just above the horizon. I didn’t have the energy to figure out whether it was sunrise or sunset. The only thought that came to my mind was that I had to find Kevin.Dragging myself to my feet, I trudged outside. With slow labored steps

KIARA’S POVIt had been ten days since I met Kevin near the lake. The tiny hope in my heart that he would come back and at least give me a chance to explain myself was getting bleaker and bleaker.In retrospect, maybe I should have followed him home; maybe I should have insisted that he listened to my part of the story. Weren’t we supposed to fight harder for what we wanted in life?“Nivaan! NIvaan!” I called out as I walked out of my tent. He came running moments later. Worry was evident on his face.He cupped my face and asked, “How are you feeling?”A bitter smile spread on my lips as I said, “Like my heart and soul has been ripped out of my body…”“I am so sorry, Love… I wish I could do something for you…”“Actually you can… I am done playing the victim card. Take me to the packhouse, I want to confront Kevin.”

KIARA’S POV“Did she buy it?” I asked apprehensively the moment Richard returned.“She did. You were right. She is proud and arrogant. We just had to play the flattering card. She was gracious enough to give you five days to mourn the death of your mate. But…”“But what…”“I have a feeling that we can’t trust her to keep quiet. She is probably planning something.”“I know that, Richard. She is slier than a fox. We have to remain alert at all times. I let out a deep sigh and asked, “Did the Alphas agree to the  meeting?”“Yes they did… but it did require some convincing.”I felt a sudden queasy sensation in my stomach and bile rose to my throat. I rushed to the bathroom and threw up violently. By the time I was done, I felt drained to my bones.The whirring sound of the flush resounded behind me as

KEVIN’S POV I groaned as I tried to open my eyes but they seemed as if they were glued together. My arms and legs were numb and no matter how hard I tried they wouldn’t budge. It didn’t take me long to realize that I was tied up with ropes.I racked my brain trying to figure out how I got here. The last thing I remembered the explosion. I had somehow managed to survive it. Then everything was bleary. There were some glimpses of a woman talking to me but I couldn’t figure out what she said.“So, you are awake, Kevin. Right on time I see…” A familiar voice sounded to my left. I tried to open my eyes. I could sense the fluttering of my eyelids but all I could see was darkness.Tugging at the ropes, I said in a panicked voice, “Cami! I don’t know how I ended up here. Please help me untie these ropes. I have to go to my packhouse…”“I felt a soft sensation as she
