The Beast's Ugly Wife のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

When I was a child, I think on a field trip with our kindergarten teacher, I was able to enter the Alpha library only once in my life. And I remember thinking it was the most fantastic place I had ever seen in my entire life. Of course, neither I nor any of the other children were allowed to touch the books. We were too young, and our teacher said we could come back and read them when we were older.My parents never let me go back, but I never forgot that place.And I mean, how incredible was a huge room where you could gather all the knowledge that existed in the world? You wanted to know more about the human world? There was a book for that. Want to learn about the culture of any other pack that existed in the world? There was a book somewhere, waiting to tell all you about it. You want to learn how to use plants

“Okay, Noah, I’m going to extend my arm close to your face as quickly as I can. Try to identify which direction…” Atticus’s condescending words are interrupted the instant I slam the wooden sword against his forearm “Fuck! At least let me finish! What happened to make you so angry today?!”Instead of answering him, I just growl through my teeth, the hilt of the wooden sword beginning to creak in my grip. I've been restless and angry since the wedding the night before, but I can't say it's really anyone's fault but my own.The truth is, I'm fucking frustrated. Both my human and feral sides. And not in the conventional way.Sex isn't really a significant part of a shapeshifter's life until your mate shows up. The Goddess seems to have made sure of that when she hatched her ridiculous plans for all of us. I've heard that a few are capable of feeling desire and genuinely falling in love with another wolf, even without a bond. That's not well-regarded, however.I think after the conversatio

My head was killing me.I had spent the entire night trying to force that damned wolf to start acting the way it should, but the bastard had apparently attacked me back. It was only the second time in my life that I had lost consciousness and become completely vulnerable to anyone who came near.And, for the second time, the little thing was there to help me.We were in the kitchen now, my exhausted body stretched out in a chair as I listened to her move around. I wasn't sure what she was doing, but there was a confusing smell of herbs all around. It was actually hard to concentrate with my head spinning like that, so I didn't even care. All I wanted was to try to sleep, but the pain hammering in my temples was making even that difficult.

The herbal tea I had made for Prince Noah had brought his fever down faster than usual! I saw it with my own eyes! Which meant that all those nights studying in the library and learning which plants I could combine were working! Which also meant that I needed to keep testing and experimenting! Maybe I was really close to finding the mixture that would help him with his blindness.Well, I didn't know if I'd be lucky enough to avoid being beheaded the next time I broke so many rules, but for the first time in my life, I seemed to be getting lucky. So, I guess I needed to take advantage of it.That was why I had brought one of my books to the main garden of the cabin. There were some plants there that I had never heard of, but Elliott really planted all sorts of things in his garden, so I thought it was a good idea to

My hopes had been a bit up and down lately. Well, mostly down, if I were honest. I had so much hope in the potion ingredients I read about in that book. And finding out that Prince… I mean, that Noah had already undergone several treatments with experienced healers, even from other packs, made me feel…As if everything I was doing was in vain. As if that terrible nightmare was just waiting to happen at any second.I was trying hard not to believe it, though. I still had stacks and stacks of books full of knowledge to put into practice!But lately, I've been starting to wonder if I shouldn't boost his strength a little, not with tea, but with food.Timidly, I crept closer to where Noah and his men were training in the forest. My body trembled subtly every ti
