All Chapters of The Cursed Alpha's Fate: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

*VALENS* I was silent for too long and it hurt her. The hurt was evident as she seemed to shrink into herself and avert her gaze.“Pretend I never said that,” she murmured, her cheeks reddening.I opened my mouth to tell her that there was no need for her to be embarrassed and that I did love her but the words refused to leave my mouth. I had no time to waste on lies so I couldn’t lie. When she asked that question, I knew the reply she wanted and I hated myself for being unable to give her that reply but I couldn’t help it.To me, Chantelle was my moon, the only brightness in my dark life. She made me want to do better and be better. Since I met her, she filled my mind day and night and I could not string together five thoughts without one of them involving her but I wasn’t sure if that was love.When I thought of love, I thought of my parents but my memories of them were fuzzy in my head. I left home at thirteen so my impression of my family was not strong. I knew my parents loved e

He got me gifts. A horde of presents that seemed like an apology for his lack of love for me. I may have accepted them graciously but when I looked at them, I felt my stomach twist and my heart hardened.There were several pieces of jewellery, a car key and a tablet with a score of pretty pink accessories. They were good gifts, great gifts if I pretended they were not to apologize for him not loving me, but when I looked at the stack of first edition comic books, the dozens of white roses and the little card on them that read ‘You are my Sunshine,’ I wanted to smash something.One would ask what was wrong with receiving such sentimental gifts but they were things that had Jackson written all over them. When I first saw the pile of comics, I thought for a minute that Jackson had found another way of reaching me and terrorizing me but these gifts were from Valens and were delivered by his Beta.‘Roses and Wolves was a fairly popular comic about an Alpha who chose a mate against his pare

When one day turned into one week, I felt like I was going crazy. On the surface, things were normal but I could feel it in my bones that everything was different. He didn’t ignore me, we spoke to each other as usual but he never cracked a smile. He never went out of his way to check on me like he used to and the strain around us worsened.Guilt ate at me and the more time passed, the more I hyperventilated in his presence, fearing an explosion and the more I feared we’d gotten to the point of no return. It was as if I’d pushed him away forever and I didn’t know how to fix it but I knew I had to so on that fateful day, I put on my shoes that were getting a bit too tight and then I went to his office.I clutched my cross bag to myself as my heart raced. My skin felt too tight for me and various irrational thoughts sprang up in my mind. I feared he’d never forgive me. Scenes of him giving me a bland smile as he accepted my apology plagued me. The thought of continuing to live together

*VALENS*Before I could react, my sister had rushed to the sleeping woman, grabbed her hair and was shaking it hard enough to pull a few strands. I was confused but what made me even more confused was the black shirt hanging off the couch. It belonged to a man so it confused me.There was a naked woman in my office and a man’s shirt. It was clear that they’d gotten frisky but in my office? It was one of the thousands of things that I never imagined would ever happen. What kind of bastard dared to bring a woman into my office for sex? No, what kind of man dared to even enter my office without my permission?“W – What –“ The woman who’d been dead asleep woke up slurring her words. She blinked numerous times as Valencia manhandled her. She raised her head and I recognized her immediately.What was Irene doing in my office?My gaze darted around the room as I looked for something – someone but I knew she wasn’t here. I swallowed through a dry throat as Valencia continued to manhandle the

“You expect me to believe that?” I asked and the incredulity was clear in my tone.If the twins were going to come up with an excuse, there were better ones than that. I was more inclined to believe that the devil possessed him and drove him to cheat than I was to believe it was a setup.“Why is it so hard to believe?” Valens who had been stewing from beside me finally spoke up. “What is it about me that makes me hard to trust? Why is it so easy for you to believe I am the scum of the earth?” His hard words made me flinch and I entertained doubt for the first time since yesterday.Perhaps I had seen wrong. No, I hadn’t but maybe it was a setup but who the hell could set him up? What would they achieve? Was he saying Irene, who just got to Redville, had managed to set up such a grand plan that involved no one but Valens!?“It’s not - it’s what I saw!” Anxiety tinged my words.I wasn’t just needlessly doubting him like I thought up until yesterday. It wasn’t just my insecurity whisperin
