All Chapters of Mysterious Mate : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

XenraMy heart skipped a beat as those words met my ears. I was shocked to find Zara standing by the door with her hands folded in front of her, and before she could say another word to me, I asked her, "How long have you been standing there?" My words tumbled out in a rush as I stared at her with my eyes wide open. I couldn't afford to be heard, not when I had spoken about my days as the vampire queen."Well, not so long," she answered calmly with a small shoulder shrug, "but long enough to know that you've been crying and talking to the moon goddess," she added, and as soon as I heard her words, my heart began to race as a great pang of uneasiness dropped in my heart. 'Does it mean she just heard everything I said?' I reasoned within me, causing my eyes to bulge as I rolled them in thought.No, that wouldn't do. After about five seconds, I snapped out of the thoughts that had gotten me busy: "Did you hear what I was telling the moon goddess?" My question tumbled out in a rush, bea

RoyceWith a fierce determination, I left Asher's office that evening. Spending the whole day with him wasn't just torturing but degrading as well, yet I had to put up with his insults and humiliation. "You're back already." My mother's voice broke into my head as I stepped into the living room that evening. I turned towards the kitchen where she had emerged from to find her staring at me with a warm smile on her face. Finally, I could rip off the mask I had been wearing for a whole day and be myself. I could be who I was without having to pretend to be so submissive and address him with the honorifics he never deserved. "Mother, how long am I going to put up with this nonsense?" I asked my voice a rough growl that echoed the anger brewing inside of me as I allowed the words to flow from my heart. I had been keeping it in all through the day, but being right in my own space, I had no reason to do that anymore. "Royce, what is going on?" My mother asked, her brows furrow

Asher Right in the dining room with my sister Akira, the table was filled with a spread of dishes. As I settled on the chair with Akira, ready for dinner, her voice broke into the thoughts that had gotten me busy. "Why are you looking so excited this evening? Is there any good news?" She asked, her eyes flicking from my face to her plate. My lips curled upwards as her words settled in my heart: "Yes, there's good news." I responded with a matching intensity, and I felt her gaze on me. But before she could ask another question, I swiftly added, "I'm expecting someone special," I said at the same time gesturing towards Akira's fat maid to serve the appetisers. Almost immediately, she began serving the meatballs, and when she was done, she stepped backwards, standing beside Akira at a considerable distance. "Hm!" Akira's voice dropped with surprise. "The last time I heard a thing like that was how many years ago..." Akira trailed off and tapped her fingers on the table

Xenra"Let's go have breakfast," Zara's voice rang with excitement as soon as she finished making her bed."Breakfast?" I asked as her words settled in my heart, "I'm not going," I swiftly added, my brows furrowing at the thought of what would be served to us."Really? It seems you had quite enough to eat from the Alpha's table last night," Zara teased, her tone dripping with a mix of mockery and surprise as she stared at me with anticipation glinting in her eyes."Oh, don't speak of it!" I expressed, rolling my eyes as I quickly dismissed every emerging thought of what had transpired the previous night.Zara, at my words, chuckled; she seemed to have understood how difficult it was, tending to that routless monster of an Alpha."So let's go have breakfast before you end up having nothing to eat at all this morning," she urged as she reached out for my hands. Her words made me scoff in disbelief, as if not having breakfast wasn't far better than the rubbish being served to us."I wou

XenraWith the same intensity coursing through me, I opened my mouth to speak, but just before the words could leave my mouth, I recalled I wanted to avoid every form of trouble as much as I could.Given that realisation, I slowly let out my breath as I attempted to calm myself down."Why should I be the one to hunt for more firewood?" I asked as calmly as I could, my brows furrowing with displeasure.At my words, she rolled her eyes and let out a scoff. I could see the disbelief written all over her face as she attempted to enforce her dominance.Did she think I would've readily accepted her orders like an obedient puppy? No matter how much I wanted to be polite and avoid eyes from being on me, I just couldn't see the logic behind what she had asked me to do.Before she could respond to my question, I said to her, "I'm supposed to be working with Princess Akira, so why should I be the one to hunt for more firewood?" I asked. I wanted to let her see how unreasonable it was to ask me t
