All Chapters of Mate? Or Die!: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Serena's POVAs soon as we got down from the carriages, Sylvia excitedly walked up to Arden and planted a long kiss on his lips. It's either she did it to spite me or she is truly deeply in love with him. I believe it's the former.She eyed me carefully, probably wondering why I was here and, most importantly, why I was in a guard's uniform."Serena, Zone, I want to personally congratulate you on your successful course in the academy." She said she was a saint.Alpha Zone and I simply bowed in response like we already practised how we'd respond to her."Shall we?" Arden asked."Not yet, my darling." She said, then walked to me. She held my hands like we had a previous rapport, and she would like to rekindle our friendship."I know I haven't always been nice to you, I am truly happy for your progress and success." She said, but I could feel everything she said was a lie. This was all a facade.I forced a smile. "Thank you for your kind words." I said as nicely as possible."When do you

Serena's POVAfter what felt like hours, I finally heard the door click. I stood up from where I was sitting and stood upright. I waited for a while but no one came out of the room.This is the most impossible job ever.My feet hurt from standing for so long. I've endured training exercises that can be really exhausting but it's better than standing here and enduring the sounds of them while having to be uncomfortable all the while it happened.I heard footsteps in the room and low mumbles but I didn't know what exactly they were talking about and if I'm honest with myself, I'd rather if I didn't.I wish I had my phone with me. I would love to do something to keep me busy and also to know what time it is. But from the moonlight, I can tell it's somewhat around 3am.It's almost morning and I haven't gotten any shut eye. I guess this is one of the things I need to let go as long as I am going to be Arden's guard.I wondered if I should go to the training ground to meet with Alpha Zone b

Serena's POVStill filled with excitement from standing up to Sylvia, I ran into the palace to find Rachel. I could feel my insides bubbling with excitement. I haven't been this excited in a long while and I can't keep this excitement to myself. I need to tell her what happened.I entered her room and she already wore her pants but not her shirt."Um, a little privacy here." She said flatly."Oh please, we shared the same locker room." I said."Because we had no choice." She whined."If you really wanted privacy, you would lock your door." I said factually.She rolled her eyes. "What do you want? I thought you were guarding His Royal Majesty, King Arden." She said mockingly.I don't blame her. I have been pretty annoying with how much I do my job. If I were her, I'd mock myself too."Shush. I have something to tell you." I said in excitement.She stared at me for a while before snapping, "Well, what is it?""I talked back to Sylvia and put her in her place."She furrowed her brows. "I

Serena's POVI have felt pain before. In fact, I had learnt to deal and live with pain, but the greatest pain of all was watching my mate look at another woman like she was the one destined for him to be with.He seemed to have forgotten me and him wanting me because there was something that was better than me in front of him, and it was Princess Sylvia.He walked up to her and gave her a kiss, and I felt my chest burn even more. I wish I could get out of here. I wish I could disappear into thin air, but I can't. I have to stay and watch the entire thing from the sidelines.I watched as they mingled with the crowd. They were walking hand in hand, and I could hear Sylvia laughing at what someone said and Arden looking impressed. If I didn't know them, I'd think they were a perfect couple, but no one is perfect.After a while, Arden and Sylvia took to the stand for his speech. "Today marks the beginning of a new era, where two packs unite to become one. As I take Princess Sylvia as my b

Serena's POVI woke up feeling more beat than how I was yesterday. My arm hurts more from the wound I got from being stabbed, and I intend to see a doctor today. Rachel helped with the healing, but there's so much she can do.I realised I slept in my uniform, and I needed to change out of them and freshen up. I got up from bed, and it felt like gravity acting on my arm worsened the pain.I sat on my bed and picked up my phone to call Rachel."Good morning. How are you?" Rachel asked. She sounded tired, which was out of character for her. No matter how busy, she tries to get a good amount of sleep."I'm okay," I said, but my voice said otherwise."Are you sure? You sound like you're in pain.""I'm good. I need new clothes, and I don't have any here…""I'll be in your room in five minutes with clean clothes." She said softly, then hung up.I took off my uniform, and I realised the wound I had looked dark and unhealthy, almost like it was infected.I heard the door open, and I turned to
