ZIVAMy heart ached at that sight. The corpse had unusual skin color, blisters, and foam around his nose. Poor child.âThe same symptoms appeared to be on the other corpses, which led us to suspect poisoning. However, the autopsy failed to confirm this theory, and we found no evidence of poisoning.â Lance explained as he shook his head. He sighed and continued his statement, âI suggest that we wrap this up.âI glanced at the corpse, feeling disheartened. âNo, we can't just wrap this up,â I said, frustration evident in my voice. âWhat if there's another death case related to this in the future? Will you just keep sweeping it under the rug, forgetting about it like it never happened?âLance turned, staring at me. I stared back at him with my head held high as my mind raced with thoughts. âI won't allow anyone to wrap this up. The murderer deserves to be punished.ââThere won't be any death cases related to this in the future, and if there are, Alpha Xander and I will work on it,â Lanc

ZIVAI looked back at the driver who gave a slight bow to Xander before he left. The connection was clear: Xander's knowing look could only mean one thing - he had been informed about the driver's plan to bring me here.Then, I turned to Xander who folded his arms. He spoke, âI thought you agreed to leave.âI said firmly, âI changed my mind.ââWhy?â He asked, with his eyes locked on mine.âIt's a long story, and I feel concerned about that child. I feel guilty too.ââGuilty?â he repeated, his brows furrowed. âWell, I had a nightmare about that child the other night. He died with the same physical symptoms we saw.â I clenched my fists, my voice rising. âIf only I had been able to stop the murderer before that incident, all these wouldn't be happening.âXander's expression turned thoughtful. âWhen did you have this nightmare?ââAfter the coma, and I think after the argument. I don't really remember.ââI think we still need to see a doctor.ââWhy? Don't tell me that you think the nightm

ZIVAI raised an eyebrow. âOh, really?â I asked, my voice laced with skepticism. âYou forgot to mention that the room was reserved for both of us?âXander stood up as a charming smile appeared on his face, âYes, and it's not appropriate to tell anyone about the pending divorce...yet.â He approached me slowly, his eyes sparkling with a gentle warmth. âBut let's focus on getting you comfortable, okay? And let's just...enjoy each other's company...for now.âI folded my arms, âI don't like this idea. Also, do not think that I will change my mind about getting the divorce papers. I won't.ââAlright,â he replied, his voice low, while I walked into the bathroom.Turning around, I warned, âKeep your distance, and don't come close.âXander nodded. With that, I headed into the bathroom, eager to soak my back in a warm bath. As I entered the bathroom, I felt a sense of relief wash over me. Finally, some peace and quiet. I began to fill the bathtub with warm water, adding some calming essentia

ZIVALeaning in slightly, I closed my eyes, expecting a kiss from Xander. Instead, Xander spoke softly, âHow about we finish your bath, hmm?âMy eyes snapped open, and I pulled back. âRight... My bath,â I nodded and returned to the bathtub. I could not even face him because I felt embarrassed. I was the one who wanted a divorce, then, I was leaning for a kiss. Oh great, what would he think of me? I focused on the bath, trying to shake off the memories of what happened earlier. I felt disappointed, but why? I didn't want him to kiss me, did I?Afterward, I changed into a new set of clothes and prepared to check the Mel Tree. However, whenever I tried to leave, Xander would always be around.âI know you are still worried about the death case,â Xander began, causing me to huff in annoyance. He knew that I would be worried, yet he wanted me to leave.âFortunately, we found out that it was a disease. They were infected by the pork they ate. A day before they died, the two families had vi

ZIVAâOkay, we're not discussing the investigation,â Xander said, as he assisted me to sit up. âWe're only talking about why you didn't answer my calls and where you went.ââI headed to the Mel Tree since you refused to include me in the investigation,â I confessed, my voice firm and confident.Xander's eyes widened in shock as he exclaimed, âWhat?âI explained in a calm tone, âI found out that the two families were among the people who pinned their wishes to the Mel Tree. Also, someone cast a specific death spell on them - one that controls their body and kills them when their inner self chooses the wrong path.ââA mind trap?â Lance said, raising an eyebrow.âExactly!â I snapped my fingers and narrated what happened earlier. While I was there, trying to escape from the bear, my body returned home and slumped on the bed. Also, if I had chosen the left path, I would be on my bed, dead with the same symptoms as the deceased.âI heard about the spell at Granelma pack and I only recall i

ZIVAâWill you give me another chance to be the husband I should have been from the beginning?â Xander asked.My heart melted at his words. I nodded slowly, tears of joy streaming down my face, and whispered, âYes, Xander. I'll give you another chance.âThen, Xander's face lit up with a radiant smile. He slid the stunning, diamond ring onto my finger, and he rose to his feet.âThank you,â he said as he gently cupped my face with his hands and kissed me tenderly. TANIAMy father, mother, and I settled for dinner and we ate quietly. I savored the sweet taste of the meal I was eating until Father began to speak.âNikolas's pack is safe and he is doing well now. Don't you think you should return to your home?â Father asked as I gulped the food in my mouth.Gulping, I felt my stomach churn. I didnât want to discuss that cheating asshole Nikolas or go back to his pack.âDad, I just want to stay here for a while,â I said softly, trying to persuade him and distract him from discussing Nikola
An Enemy Called Mate   Chapter 87
TANIAI stood there, frozen in shock, as my mother's words echoed in my head. I couldn't believe she was doing this to me. I had nowhere to go, no one to turn to. My father and mother had made it clear: I was to return to Nikolas's pack, or I would be disowned and left with nothing. The thought of going back to that place, to that asshole, made my skin crawl. But I had no choice. I was trapped.With a heavy heart, I slowly turned and walked to my room, feeling like I was walking to my own prison sentence. I packed my bags in a daze, my mind racing with thoughts of escape. But I knew it was futile. I had to face the reality: I was going back to Nikolas, and there was nothing I could do to stop it.I thought about how I had made a mistake by marrying Nikolas in the first place, knowing he was Ziva's boyfriend. Now, I am paying the price for my own greed. If I had just left Nikolas when I had the chance, instead of marrying him, maybe things would be different. Being forced to go ba
An Enemy Called Mate   Chapter 88
TANIAI paused, processing what Nikolas said. I exclaimed as soon as I understood, âYou did everything and hurt me, for that bitch, your so-called Beta?!âNikolas nodded with a smile on his face, âYes. I would appreciate it if you call her by her name from now on. She is Delilah, the love of my life.âI clenched my fists, feeling annoyed and disheartened. I loved him and treated him as my mate, but he hurt me for a woman he called his Beta.âFine, I understand.â I sniffled, âDelilah is the woman you love, while I am the woman you toyed with.ââGood!â He exclaimed, then he went ahead to move the silvery chains from me. As soon as he released me from the chains, I rose to my feet and slapped him across the face.Startled, Nikolas held his cheek, while I yelled, âYou are a jerk, an asshole, and whatever word would fit a despicable man like you! To think that I married you and spent the nights with you! Despicable!âNikolas turned. He raised his hand to slap me, but I caught his hand bef
