All Chapters of Fated Mates, Forbidden Love : Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

Craig The atmosphere in the school was charged with electric joy and filled with anticipation.Today marked the highly anticipated soccer tournament. We were given new pristine uniforms, and I adjusted my jersey. Coach Francis stood at the front of the room addressing us. "Boys, this is the moment we've been waiting for," he exclaimed, his voice booming with confidence. "The biggest event of the year. Show them what you're made of. Leave everything on that field. Make your mark." The team roared in response, pumping our fists in unity. We marched out of the changing room, and as the door swung open, it revealed a sea of cheering faces. My schoolmates, the staff, and many of our parents were in attendance. It was so serious that all academic activities were suspended for the day, and even my dad promised to come watch me play. Banners fluttered in the breeze, displaying the rivalry between StoneCrest and North Fangs. North Fangs was known for their ruthlessness on the soccer fiel

Alexis "Is your dad always in a good mood?" I asked Craig. He shrugged, a playful smile tugging at the corners of his lips. "That's one way to put it," "And your mum?" noticing that Craig never mentioned her. From Craig's body language and hesitation, I could tell she'd be a hard nut to crack. "A bit more intense than my dad, but I'm sure she'll like you." His response didn't sit well with me but his dad appeared before us with a warm smile, welcoming us and guiding us toward the living room. "Elvira, honey. We have a guest. Thank you, Alexis, for honoring my invitation. Let me introduce you to my wife." A mix of strong jasmine scents filled my nostrils and my eyes landed on a breathtakingly beautiful woman with a flawless complexion dressed in a shiny white gown with a silver motif adorned with a pearl necklace. Her long, dark hair styled in ringlets ran past her shoulder. My brain went into overdrive, fighting hard not to faint from the icy glare that held me captive with

Alexis King Craigislav's chauffeur drove us back to school. Craig tried as much as he could to erase any tension that was present from our interrupted sexual rendezvous and assured me that he'd be patient until I was ready. But I feared he'd stop liking me for not being able to satisfy his sexual needs. I couldn't get the guilt out of my head and decided to make it up to him one way or the other. Craig was a great guy. He was, kind, and extremely polite – and I loved every damn thing about him. Also, nobody made me feel butterflies in my belly like this boy did. The coming week flew past with lots of midterm tests and assignments and I barely had time to breathe. Everyone was looking forward to Thursday, our midterm break, a compulsory four-day holiday to rest after the series of tests bundled on us. Dad picked up Beverly and I. Ever since the fight, Beverly had been avoiding me and I noticed she'd also distanced herself from Craig. I was relieved she was out of my busines

Alexis Tears streamed down my face uncontrollably, my worried gaze fixed on the floor as if searching for answers within its pattern. I couldn't control the emotions that pressed down on my chest. Tara crouched beside me in the bathroom, her storm-grey eyes filled with genuine concern. "I shouldn't have agreed to go to that damn nightclub," I sobbed. "This is all my fault." "No, Alexis. Don't blame yourself for anything. First of all, you're overthinking this. I bet Craig's fine " Sniffing loudly, I looked up at her. "Look how red and puffy your eyes are. You'll make people assume the worst, " she groaned, hugging me. "What if something happened to him? What if he's hurt?" I muttered between sobs. Tara sighed softly. "You're beating yourself up for nothing. Why don't we head back to the class? I'm sure Craig will show up soon." "I don't want to go to the damn class, " I snapped, wiping my cheeks. "I want to see Craig. " "You will," she smothered my hair and wiped my tears

Alexis My feet in their motion rushed to Craig. He turned around, annoyance plastered on his face. Beverly seemed confused, like she didn't know what she was doing. Taking a deep breath, I mustered all my composure, speaking with the calmest voice I could muster. "What's going on, Craig? Why are you with Beverly? Am I missing something here?" Craig's brows furrowed, his indifference cutting through me like a knife. "I don't understand what you're talking about." The more he acted unaffected by all of this the more my heart sank. I'd never witnessed such a shift in anyone before. "What do you mean you don't understand? You're not even talking to me!" He remained mute and I cupped his face with my hands, hoping that whatever prank or spell that was cast on him would clear and my Craig, the one who loved me, would return. Tears threatened my eyes but I wiped them off with my palm. "Please stop this, I beg you. We have a lot to talk about… " He brushed my hand away from his face.
