All Chapters of Return of the betrayed MATE: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

A silver bullet hits Katrina's shoulder with great force. She is thrown back a few meters due to the impact that catches her by surprise.Her head spins as she tries to grab hold of one of the branches. Her only concern now is her puppy in her womb and what might happen to it if she falls from this height into the cliff. She never liked walking through these woods and right now she regrets not having explored them earlier to have an escape option."You're disgusting, damnable!" Her half-sister Lizzie's voice echoes in her head. All the remorse she had claimed to feel is completely false, and now she realizes it. "Did you think I was going to give you a clear path? You purposely married Jarl because you know he loves me. You did it to hurt me and push me away from him, but it won't work, Katrina. Jarl and I will get married, whether you accept it or not. I will be the moon of the Alba Noctis pack when he becomes the alpha. We will have many children and be very happy."Katrina is still

It's been three nights since Jarl hasn't gone to the Grimlore mansion to sleep, but he often misses home due to many meetings or trips in which he must participate before being declared alpha of the pack, which according to Katrina's understanding, will be in three more moons.Thirty minutes later, Katrina parks her old car in the parking lot of Sofisthy's offices and takes the elevator that goes to the floor where her husband's office is located. All employees look at her strangely when the metal doors open. Her casual attire and unkempt appearance contrast completely with the sumptuous and immaculate office with polished floors, high ceilings, and to top it off, perfectly uniformed and groomed assistants. Katrina is wearing light pink denim shorts and a pink t-shirt with a heart emoji design on the chest, with white athletic sandals. Her long, blond hair is tied in a messy ponytail that lets some strands fall on her face. She is wearing no makeup. She has never liked using them be

Hearing that filled the young woman with sadness and frustration. Although the moon goddess has not yet bestowed her with the gift of transformation, she knows that when the right time comes, she will. Her mother managed to transform for the first time at the age of 25, and despite that, she was the Alpha of the pack, an unparalleled and respected leader, even among other packs. She can't wait to prove to everyone that she is not as useless as they make her out to be."I don't know what you're accusing me of, Lorena, but I'm not staying here to find out or let you insult me," Katrina starts to make a move to go up the stairs, but her father finally speaks."Jarl was here last night. He came looking for you because you hadn't gone home and he got worried. Then he received a call from a friend of his saying that you were at some run-down nightclub getting drunk with a couple of omegas and your friend.""But dad…""Is it untrue? His friend sent Jarl pictures and we all saw them, were the

After the conversation between Jarl and Mauricio, Jarl quickly leaves the castle to meet up with his friend Gabriel. Finding that will is his priority now, and he can advise him on what to do.He sends him a message and asks to meet at his apartment. He doesn't want anyone else to hear what they have to talk about, and they won't be interrupted there either.He arrives at the building where Gabriel lives and Jarl tells him everything, just as he heard it in the castle, including what his father had heard the alpha Lauren's lawyer say shortly before her death. Connecting all the dots, the version fits perfectly.«His father was right in asking you to claim Katrina as your mate, and he was right to listen to him» Jarl thinks, encouraged."I need to see the content of that will, Jarl," Gabriel says, while drinking whiskey. "If you can bring me at least one copy, we'll have everything we need to draft the document that Katrina needs to sign.""That will be a piece of cake, Gabriel. I know

"You must be crazy if you think about forgiving him and believing that string of lies he told you to sweeten you up," Amber's response makes Katrina sigh, disheartened. "Jarl doesn't love you at all. Someone who loves doesn't treat their partner the way he treated you, my friend. He's shamelessly lying to you and using your innocence to his advantage.""Although you may not believe it, he was very affectionate with me last night, Amber. He seemed like a different person.""But he was fucking Lizzie, your half-sister, in his office, Katrina. You saw them yourself. What more evidence do you need that Jarl is a complete jerk?""He told me that she had come onto him.""That could also be true," Amber replies immediately. "Your half-sister reeks of promiscuity from miles away, believe me. And it's no secret to anyone in Alba Noctis that this woman has been after your husband since she moved to the castle. Besides, her mother is a living example of what it means to be a slut, she has plenty
