All Chapters of Against All Odds: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

AVERYFrom the moment I realized Brandon was my mate, I loved him deeply and looked forward to a happy future with him. Who wouldn't love him? He was strong, brave, and fearless. He had his good and bad qualities, but he was mine, and I was head over heels in love with him. I ran to him excitedly to tell him the news and express my desire to spend the rest of my life with him. I was happy with who fate had given me as a mate, but it wasn't the same for him. He shook his head and said, "Not you, it shouldn't be you." I was surprised and asked him who it should be instead, and he responded with "Zara."From that moment on, I understood that Brandon was in love with Zara. Whatever it was he felt for her, which I eventually realized was an obsession, was stronger than what he had for me. I begged him not to reject me and told him that I loved him, but he refused to give me a chance. The pain was excruciating, and for days, I fell ill. The emotional pain was difficult to bear.It wasn't

ZARAI stared at Anders in surprise as he climbed up the cliff. I moved backward, not able to believe the sight in front of me. I felt like I was dreaming, Anders was standing in front of me and he was staring at me with a smile. I wiped my tears and closed my eyes. When I opened them, he was still standing in front of me."Anders," I exclaimed. "Zara," he replied with a smile. I threw myself into his arms and broke down in tears. "Shhhh," he shushed me. "It's okay, it's okay, my love."I pulled myself away from his hold and stared at him again. I cupped his face. "Anders, is this you? Am I dreaming right now?"Anders chuckled. "You're always asking me if you're dreaming. This is reality."I gently kissed him on his cheeks just to be sure that it was really Anders. When I pulled away, I shook my head and asked, "Anders, you came back to me?""Yes, I came back to you," he said. "To be honest, I thought I was going to die when I was kicked off the cliff. I found myself struggling, I r

ARYANAfter school, I met up with my friends and said, "I have good news, guys." They all knew what it was since I had been looking forward to meeting my mate. I told them I was mated to Selene and Adele; the two most popular twins in the school whose personalities rivaled each other. Two of my friends laughed at me while the other two congratulated me. Maddox, who was my closest friend, said, "It's not such a bad thing, though. I mean, you get to have two wives, like a king." I knew he was making fun of me and threatened to punch him, but another of my friends, Ethan, said, "Don't get worked up. Getting two mates is a blessing. I mean, come on! It's just like having two girlfriends, but you don't have to feel guilty about cheating or worry about being caught." Maddox teased, "Hey, have you forgotten who Adele is? Don't you know how evil she is? She's the reason why our maths teacher resigned. She practically tried to kill him and might do the same to Aryan""Do not say that," Eth

ADELEI got ready for the party and stared at my reflection in the mirror. I didn't look too bad. I had put so much effort into my look as I had never done before. These were my best clothes, mostly because my dad never bought any for me. Perhaps, he did when I was a baby but I have no memory of it. I always ended up with Selene's leftovers, but then when I turned fourteen, I decided to start working. My dad didn't want me to do that, but I needed to afford a few things for myself, so I insisted. I stood my ground, and eventually, he let me get the job, but my jobs never lasted. I kept getting fired and accused of things I had no idea about. Fired..... accused.... fired, that was my cycle. I had worked in almost all the small establishments in my town until I met my last employer, Mrs. Harold. She and her husband are the best people I've ever met. When I got a job in their cyber cafe, I told them my story and explained my innocence. It didn't make sense for me to be doing all thos
