Escaping my arranged marriage with Alpha Prescott

Chapter 53

Matilda

Thank her? Never even in my worst dreams.

Before | could give him a scathing response, | was hit by a wave of nausea and dashed toward my room.

“Luna,” Serena whispered, noticing me running but | avoided her.

| opened the toilet seat and puked again. | hated being in a pathetic situation. | was in the washroom instead of being in that important meeting. | punched the wall in frustration and washed my mouth.

“Luna Matilda,” Serena screamed and | jumped into my place, not expecting her to follow me.

“You startled me,” | shook my head and sat on the bed after turning the air conditioner to the fullest.

“You shouldn't starve yourself. You need to be extra careful now that we’re expecting at war,” She scolded me like my mother and | couldn’t help but giggle.

The morning scenario flashed through my eyes and | closed my eyes. Lola and Prescott will have to pay for this. | wouldn’t let it slide.

“Can you tell me about Lola?” | asked Serena, watching her expression turn sour.

“She is our Alpha’s ex, that’s it. | don’t want to talk about her,” said she, averting her gaze from me.

“You're hiding something from me and | do not like it, Serena. You’re my first friend in this pack and | trusted you the most. | didn’t expect you to leave me alone in my bad time,” | said, not hiding my displeasure from her response.

She sighed defeatedly and clutched her dress. “Lola is my elder sister and | hate her. That’s why | hate talking about her. She shouldn’t have returned after betraying Alpha Prescott.”

“But why do you hate your sister? And tell me more about their break up. | saw my husband f ucking her ex in the kitchen today in the morning so please, help me,” | told her, holding back my tears.

Serena gasped and took my hands in hers. “I didn’t have any idea about this. I’m so sorry,” she comforted me.

“My parents adopted Lola when my mother couldn’t get pregnant but she was their favorite. | felt ignored all my life by my own parents while she got everything she wanted by just batting her eyelashes. Lola was the head warrior and was always favored by Alpha. She found her fated mate and left the pack to live with him,” she added.

“Then, why is she back?” | muttered through gritted teeth.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

“| don’t know either. | haven’t talked to her. All | know is that Prescott and Lola loved each other so much that Alpha trusted her blindly. | got punished for the crimes | didn’t even commit just because of her,” she whispered bitterly. | could see hatred dripping. from her voice.

All his anger that | faced wasn’t just because of me. My mate had suffered because his ex and his arranged wife chose their fated mates instead of him but he chose to punish me alone. Maybe because | was an easy target and he loved Lola too much to take revenge on her.

Serena scrutinized me and | wiggled my brows, signaling her to speak her mind.

“Your face is glowing though you seem sick,” she smiled devilishly. “And...”

“And?”

“You were puking earlier,” her smile widened and my breath got stuck in my throat.

“No. No. This can’t be true,” | shook my head vigorously.

“Let's take a pregnancy test,” she suggested enthusiastically. “If you’re pregnant, Alpha will have to take care of you so he will stop seeing my evil sister. Everyone will force him to throw her out of his apartment.”

“Wait, what? She is staying in the apartment?” | asked startled.

She pressed her lips and nodded her head in approval. “Alpha had given her own. personal room on his floor though they stayed in his room pretty much.”

“Bring me that test.” | turned my heels on to grab a bite. If | was pregnant, | had to take care of my child. | wouldn’t depend on that asshole to take care of either of us.

| would give birth to our heir and stay in his pack no matter what. | wouldn’t run away this time. Lola had to give up on my husband and | was going to make it happen. Unlike my past pathetic version, | will fight for my rights and make that bi tch leave again.

| would act like a Queen because | was the f ucking Alpha Queen. | was famished so | eagerly devoured pancakes and chicken sandwiches. | was craving more sweets so | asked the chef to make some chocolate cupcakes for me and send them to my room.

There was the Witch King who wanted me so desperately and then, there was my mate

who wanted his ex. | didn’t know what had gotten inside my mom’s brain, she wanted me to marry Dylan Kane.

“Luna,” Serena called for me and | shuffled to my room.

Taking the test kit from her, | instantly took the test and breathed heavily before closing my eyes.

“Oh, Goddess,” | whispered, not knowing how to feel.

Should | feel happy that | was carrying my mate’s child? Or sad because my mate was cheating on me?

My wolf was in so much pain since | found them f ucking. The marks on my body didn’t heal yet, Goddess knew why.

“What's the result, Luna?” Serena asked in excitement and | opened the door, showing it to her.

“Oh my Goddess,” she squealed and jumped in pure joy. “The Silver Claw pack’s heir is growing in your belly, Luna.”

The happy tears slipped from her eyes. She pulled me in a warm hug which | happily reciprocated.

“It seems like my sister has found my replacement,” a female voice stiffened me.

“| don’t need your replacement, bi tch. Just leave us alone,” Serena growled. | had seen. her getting angry for the first time. She always acted furious with Caleb but it was just.

an act.

“Mind your tongue, Serena. She is your elder sister,” Prescott scolded her and came inside, meeting my furious gaze.

“Excuse me,” Serena said, looking at me before leaving.

“| stopped by just to say sorry for the morning to Luna,” Lola tucked her hair behind her ear, hiding her teary eyes. “I’m so sorry, Luna. | didn’t mean to snatch your husband. It’s... it's just that we...um, we-”

“You don’t have to explain anything,” Prescott cut her off, discerning her hesitation.

A deep frown settled on my features, feeling nauseous again after seeing their lovey- dovey act.

“Your pancakes, Alpha Queen,” the chef knocked.

“| have lost my appetite, Chef. Please, distribute them amongst the kids in the

packhouse,” | informed him before walking away.

“Matilda,” Prescott snarled, trying to stop me.

“Either spare my bedsheet or I’m going to move to another room,” | paused and cast a disgusting look at him.

Lola looked offended, she left my room and | closed the door behind her.

“What was that?” Prescott lunged at me. “Why did you leave the meeting? | attended the meeting with the other Alphas alone.” He held my shoulders and forced me to stay glued to the wall. His hot breath fell on my mouth, turning me on despite the bloody situation.

“Are you whining because you can’t fulfill the duties of the King without me?” | scoffed.

“Drop that bitchy attitude, Tila. Or else-” he paused.

“Or else what? You will make that wh ore your second wife?” | provoked him.

My mate smirked. “Thanks for that idea. My ex is single and will become an obedient wife.”

“Don't let me stop you from doing that,” | shrugged, ignoring the delicious sparks that dispersed in my body.

Prescott held my chin and brought his lips closer to mine, staring deeply into my eyes. “I will never divorce you, Matilda. You're f ucking mine. | own you, your body, your soul, and every part of you.”

His words sent a pleasurable shiver to my core. My body was betraying my mind.

“| won't be your toy. You don’t own me, Prescott White,” | said in a shaky voice and he smirked before ripping my dress.
