All Chapters of Marked Against Her Will: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

One time, there was this incident during monthly evaluations.Polly was done with her matches, winning two. Whereas Jared remained the popular choice to be challenged. His name was also included in the random draws for the third match. It was a new option. If you don’t want to directly challenge a mentor, you can opt to challenge a random mentor.It was already mid-afternoon and Jared has just finished a match. He didn’t bother leaving the match area, though. Who knows if the next one would also challenge him?He raised an eyebrow when the next participant turned out to be Ren. The young man chose the random draw and Jared still waited. He would have dumb luck if he’s still chosen at this point and in such manner. Frankly, he’s already tired.Lo and behold, it was his name on the piece of paper. He exhaled as he contemplated. Should he withdraw? When he glanced towards Polly, he found her looking at Ren instead and with a worried look on her face. Seeing that, he made his decision.He

He raised an eyebrow when she finally aired her thoughts. She simply glanced at him before grabbing a pot and turning the stove on.“It’s the truth. If Alpha Clyde gave me authority over a few men, I fear I would treat them the way I did when I was in Blood Moon.”“But you could treat them differently. You know better now.”He shook his head. “I don’t think so. You might think I have loosened up because of how I treat my current trainees. They’re young, inexperienced and needing guidance. I don’t treat them the way I would actual warriors who are tasked to protect the pack. I’ll have higher expectations, and I’ll put them through harsher trainings.”“Can’t you just treat them like you treat young trainees, though?”He shook his head. “I can’t do that. That would be taking my tasks lightly and not seriously. It might lead to grievous consequences and that’s not something I want.”She sighed. Alright. She won’t push it. She understands him.“Sometimes, I wonder what your childhood is li

“Going to the city, of course. Maybe we can stay at a hotel. I’ll ravage you, then.”“What else have we not done in the city?”“There’s still a lot of things you haven’t seen. You’ll be surprised. I promise to show you things you’ve never experienced before.”She took a deep breath as he enveloped her in his arms and started caressing her back. “Fine. I believe you.”Even before they left the territory, he already presented her with some sweets and a bouquet of fresh flowers. She was prepared this time, having bought several gifts for him, too. Heck, there’s not much they use their money on so gifting each other was the norm.They enjoyed themselves and Polly became somewhat wistful. When she found out that he’s her mate, she never had thought that they would live simpler lives. But here they are. She’s very thankful.More months passed and they had an incident one night. The men, including Jared, were called to their assigned positions. It wasn’t exactly an attack, but when the prowl

She found his statement to be odd but she didn’t think too much of it. She closed her eyes and fell asleep almost instantly. Jared played with her hair as he thought back to his brother’s question. Knowing James, he was probably serious. His lip twitched. Heck, it would seem like his brother didn’t want the burden. It certainly looked like he’s not enjoying it. It was absurd. His sense of responsibility was urging him to take the opportunity, but a part of him was satisfied with what he has now.Polly slept but it was a restless one. Her dreams were too bothersome, almost nightmarish. James’ words haunted her. Despite knowing more about Jared, she couldn’t be sure what he’ll decide to do.When she woke up in the morning, she was alone in the room. There’s a note on the bedside table and a tray of food. He said he’s out with his brother. Ugh. What should she do? She didn’t have the appetite so she flopped back on the bed.Jared. She can’t help but sigh as she thought of him. He has cha

“Did you steal it?” Polly couldn’t help asking.He was speechless by her accusation. “Would I steal a baby? It’s Mikael’s baby. His wife died in childbirth this afternoon.”Polly gasped as her eyes widened. “Oh, no! Helena?”“Yeah. I offered to take care of the baby for a few days. I thought you might want to experience taking care of one 24/7 and see if you would still want a baby of your own. Frankly, I don’t want one if I would lose you to childbirth. I don’t know how I’ve forgotten about such a risk, when my mother died the same way.”His statements left her confused. He said a mouthful, but she took the baby from him when it started crying.“Mikael agreed to let you take him?” The baby quickly quieted in her arms, much to her surprise. She’s a hit and miss when it comes to babies. Some continued to cry when she tried to make them stop.“Only when I mentioned you’ll take care of it, not me.”She rolled her eyes at him before absorbing the loss of a friend. She’d seen Helena in the
