All Chapters of Mysterious Mate : Chapter 171 - Chapter 180

XenraIsabella came to a halt before me, her girls clustering behind her, while Zara drew closer to me.Then a short, empty laugh escaped her throat, after which she began to speak."So you think you can escape my hook after embarrassing me the last time, huh?" She said, her voice dripping with mockery.She had a smirk on her face as she stared at me with a mix of excitement and determination glinting in her eyes.Without waiting for me to say something, she pressed on, "I've been waiting for you, and now I've seen the perfect time to deal with you." Her words tumbled out in a rush."I'm so going to make your life miserable so that when you see me next time, you'd be afraid of me." She glared at me, her words heavy with hatred as she spoke.From where I stood, I could hear Zara's ragged breathing and the fear flickering in her eyes, and I understood she was scared—scared of them, scared of what they had planned to do to us.But there was no iota of fear in me, nor did I flinch at all

RoyceThe gazes of everyone were heavy on me, waiting for the verdict that would convict her of the accusation.Deep within me, I felt it was a perfect opportunity to remove the perceived threat to my path of revenge, and I knew I shouldn't let it slip through my fingers.I was still pondering how to go about it, when Sylvester's facial gesture caught my attention. As I fixed my gaze on him, he tilted his head from side to side and back, and I understood that he was asking for an audience.Before I could get to my feet, he began to walk away, while I stood up and followed him to a secluded corner."What are you trying to do?" He asked me as soon as I stood beside him. Without waiting for my response, he continued, "Are you planning on telling the Alpha about it?" His voice was tinged with a mix of surprise and curiosity."Of course!" I swiftly replied, my voice firm and steady, echoing the firm determination that had settled in my heart.As far as I knew, I shouldn't miss the opportun

Royce."Still thinking about it?" Sylvester's voice sliced into the thoughts that had gotten me busy, snapping me back to the present.I turned to find him standing behind me, and from the expression on his face, I could tell he was satisfied with how I had handled the situation.I pulled my gaze from him and said, "I'm suspicious of that lady." My voice mirrored the certainty in my heart."Which lady?" Sylvester swiftly asked, his voice as surprised as the expression on his face.But it was clear he wasn't really asking because he didn't know who I was talking about, as he continued almost immediately, "You mean Xenra?" Disbelief coating his tone.I totally ignored his disbelief. Deep within me, I was certain about what I said; I knew there was something more about her, even though I just couldn't wrap my fingers around it."There's something about her," I continued in a firm voice, "Although I just can't place it, I can tell she's not ordinary. She's more than what we've seen." I vo

AsherI stood beside my window that day, my gaze fixed on the garden beside my room. Although my gaze was fixed on the peach blossoms, my mind had pierced through them and had drifted far away, back to that night.Gradually, my mood was affected again, and a great sense of sadness settled in my heart, as I began to ponder Xenra's attitude towards me ever since then.I didn't need anyone to tell me she had deliberately been avoiding me. The fact that she didn't turn up for her duty all through the previous day only confirmed my initial suspicion, and the fact that I hadn't seen her for days made my veins itch.As my thoughts lingered, I found myself muttering beneath my breath, "But what did I do to her? Why's she really avoiding me?"The realization that I didn't have answers to those questions almost sent me into a well of depression.I was so lost in my thoughts and I didn't notice that Akira had snuck up on me again. "Is someone lost in thoughts?" Her voice sliced through the thi

XenraMy steps were heavy as they carried me to the royal kitchen, to the private space where Asher and Akira's meal was made.My face was tight with anger as I reached for the door. No matter how I thought about it, I just couldn't comprehend why Asher would ask me to make soup pudding for him, even though I didn't work in the kitchen.The fact that I had to make it for him greatly annoyed me, but since I didn't want to get into any trouble with him, I knew I had to do it."Where is the damn pot?" I asked frustratedly, even though there was no other person in the royal kitchen.It seemed Asher had given them orders to vacate the kitchen as well; that was the only reason I could find for why the royal kitchen was empty when the chefs were supposed to be getting ready for dinner.After angrily scanning through the shelves, I saw the stack of pots and swiftly carried one of them.As I placed it in the sink and filled it with water, I began to ponder that absurd task again."But wait, wh
