Semua Bab The Cursed King’s Captive: A Mate In Disguise: Bab 41 - Bab 50

Lucian POV“What?" I blurted as I scrunch my face in disdain."You see, Lucian and I are engaged to one another." Olivia's voice rang in my head."Well, and we're going to be bonded soon," she smiled so big at me."Oh, I am really happy for both of you," Jules said as she winked at me.For some weird reason it felt like a punch-in-the-back. I couldn't explain why, but I really wished that she would have been jealous, or at least defensive.But, she acted like I didn't matter to her by giggling and smiling at every opportunity I could get."Thank-you," Olivia said clumsily, as she smiled. "So you understand why I'm so protective of him right?" She looked at Jules."Yeah, totally get it," Jules said with a little smile on her face. "I also have someone and I go crazy when he looks at other maidens," she said."I choked on my food, spewing everything out of my mouth."Here, take this," she said, offering me a glass of water."Thank-you," I stuttered, staring at her."No problem," she sai

Jules POV“Huh,” I gasped, opening my eyes slowly when I didn't feel Lucian's strike. Surprisingly, he was nowhere to be found.“Wow, did he just leave?” I said, my eyes darting back and forth in search of him.“Am I that terrifying?” I wondered, chuckling slightly.Suddenly I caught sight of him, far off, lying on the floor.“I gasped, covering my mouth with my palm.Initially, I felt a wave leave my hand earlier but I didn't realize it was something serious.“Did I do that?” I wondered, checking my hands.I was too engrossed in my own thoughts that I forgot Lucian was still lying down helplessly.Without wasting any more time, I ran towards him, my heart pounding in my chest.“Lucian, are you alright?” I asked, crouching in front of him.His eyes were faintly closed, blood dripping from his mouth.“Lucian, oh no,” I shrieked, as my eyes filled up with tears “Let me get help,” I said, trying to leave but he held me back.“Stay,” he whispered, coughing out more blood.What will I do

Aegon’s POVMy eyelids flickered slowly as I opened them. The rays from the scorching sun hit my face directly, making me shut my eyes back almost immediately.“I groaned, covering my face with a pillow as I rolled on the giant king size bed.It was a brand new day, patrol day to be specific. Even though I was the second in command in the pack, answerable to only Lucian, patrol still felt like a thorn in my flesh.Starting from the baseless walk around the pack’s defenses to testing new products in the market, everything seemed to bore me.Suddenly a gentle knock came on the door, jerking me slightly.“Who's there?” I asked, my face twisted in a frown.Apart from patrol day, another thing I hated was unannounced visits, it irks me.“Come in,” I muttered again, my voice louder than before.The door made a slight creak, followed by Kaspar, the chief of guards. He served as personal guard to the last beta before me.“Morning, my lord,” he said, bowing slightly. “It's time.”I stared at

Lucian’s POV“Did you do it?” I asked again, this time louder than before.“Do what?” She replied flatly, her gaze fixed on me.“Oh, don't act dumb with me, Jules, I showed you the armory, I snapped, raising my voice. “I showed you everything.”“I don't know what you're talking about,” she said, her voice even and low.“Huh!” I exclaimed, my eyes squinted.“I don't know what you are saying,” she repeated. “Believe me, I have no reason to steal from you,” she added.I stared at for a while, my eyes piercing into her, as though I was searching for the answer on her face.“So, you didn't snitch us?” I asked, my brows raised.“Seriously, do you really think I was spying on you?” she said, her voice began to waver.“I...not really,” I said, choking on a lump in my throat.“Wow, just wow, typical Lucian,” she said, her eyes began to water. “And I thought you trusted me,” she added.At that point, I didn't know what to say. I was speechless. I tried to speak again, but I couldn't, it felt lik

Jules POVAegon didn’t turn when I walked in.“Welcome,” he said, his voice deep and calm, as his fists slammed into the training dummy again and again.He was bare-chested, his back slick with sweat that caught the low light. Every muscle in his body moved with power and control. I had known Aegon for a while, but I had never seen him like this—fierce, focused, raw.For some reason, I had always assumed he was more bark than bite. He dressed like a noble, spoke like a scholar, and moved like a man who avoided fights. But now, watching him strike with such precision, I realized I had been wrong.He paused, breathing hard. “You need something?” I didn’t answer right away. I was too busy staring. Too curious. Too unsure of why I came.“Not really,” I finally said, biting on my bottom lip.“Then quit staring and grab a sword,” he replied, still not facing me. I stepped forward slowly, letting the heavy silence of the place wrap around me. The floor smelled like sweat and steel. The wall
