Lahat ng Kabanata ng TORN BETWEEN THE THREE: Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO: LITTLE MINTIELYRA'S POV I love Lucian, I have always had, I always will. We've known each other since I was seven and he was ten. I met him the same day I met Cassian and Dorian. We all met at the birthday party that Alpha Caden, their father, had thrown to celebrate his heirs turning ten. It was a big party, a royal event, only nobility were allowed to attend.My father had attended begrudgingly, he was angry with the Alpha for a bill that had been passed, I'm not sure about the full details, I just know it was something that had really hurt my father, it had caused a strain in my father's friendship with Alpha Caden. In spite of the differences between my father and the Alpha, we still had to attend because of my father's position in the cabinet. He is Alpha Caden beta, so not attending would leave a bad taste in people's mouth.Unlike dad, I was really excited for the event. Before that day, I had not been let out of the house. My whole life up till then was

CHAPTER TWENTY-FOURRHEA'S POVI paced up and down in the room, wondering if I should tell him. I mean how will I even tell him?! How will I even say something like that?! What will he think of me?! How will he see me? What will he think of me? Arghhh! Moon goddess why do I have to go through this?! Why can't my life just go smoothly?!I walked to the other side of the room and stood in front of the mirror. I watched my reflection, I had on a white romper that I had seen on Lyra once, I immediately felt guilty. What would she say if she could see me, the guilt hit the pit of my stomach, I felt uneasy, I looked away.The pain in the lower part of my stomach increased, I crouched down in pain, I felt the wetness starting to increase. I definitely have to tell him now! I rushed to the bathroom to take a shower and change, I threw my hair up into a messy bun because the fact that it was getting to my face was starting to get a bit annoying.I exhaled sharply, hoping that it would take aw

CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX: BROKENRHEA'S POVComing face to face with Lyra especially after what happened felt unsettling. I felt uneasy, I felt this awkward wave of emotion settle on me. It felt nothing like it used to be, it felt awkward and mysterious. This Lyra felt unfamiliar, she looked the same but everything had changed since that night.Lyra stood in front of the door frame, Cassian and I stood behind it. The look on her face bordered between shock and hurt. I felt horrible, I felt utterly out of place. I shouldn’t be here, I should not be anywhere near them, near their love, they are in love and I am just an obstacle. I wish everything can go back to the way it used to be. I wish we could go back to when things weren't so uncomfortable, when Lyra was this kind best friend/sister that I looked up to.I wish that I can go back to being Lyra's “sister”, back to us being in her room, staring out her balcony at the mountains, dreaming up the moment when Cassian would propose to her. Tha

CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT: ME OR HER?JUSTIN'S POV The two guys grinned to themselves. The one driving had a whiskey flask in his hand, he took a swing of the liquor I'm sure is contained in it every other second. The car carried a slight smell of whiskey mixed with sweat and the metallic smell of blood from Dorian. I held on to him, my hand laid on his head, his head was on my laps now, he eyes were closed. He looked like he was asleep, without the blood on him, anyone would make the mistake of thinking that he is asleep.The man at the front continued drinking and driving. I spotted a cop at the front. I sighed in relief because maybe he'll put a stop to this? I mean the driver is clearly semi-inebrieted, their is someone with blood on him, I looked distraught, nothing about this picture looks right so it'll make a lot of sense if the cop questions it right?At least if that happens, if they figure out what is going on, that this is in fact a kidnap situation, they will surely take Dori

CHAPTER THIRTY: CUPID.RHEA'S POV “Why are you sitting there like that?”“Are you… are we not going to try to find a way to make this right?”“Are you not worried? Even a little bit,”Cassian ignored all my questions, he slipped his head phone on for full effect. He rolled his eyes at me. He looked…tired like he ran a marathon race and there was still like a thousand yards remaining. He also looked irritated, and from it seems like that irritation was directed at me and potentially the fact that I am pacing in front of him like a maniac after potentially ruining his relationship with the potential love of his life.“Oh goddess, she hates me! She hates me! Lyra is the only friend I have ever had in my life and she hates me!” I tried to breathe, tried to stop pacing and just stand or seat or stay still. I couldn't, no matter how I tried, pacing, moving felt like the only right thing to do. The sight of Cassian sitting calmly with his finger on his chin stroking it lightly annoyed me m
