Matilda

Prescott was my fated mate so | could feel his pain and the soul-crunching pain in my heart was too hard to bear but | had to keep it a secret or everyone else would know that he was my fated mate.

The things between us were beginning to be fine again when his ex entered our lives. | couldn’t trust Prescott anymore.

All the things that he said earlier were fake, he was just pretending to be in love with me and | would never forgive him for that. “Go back and heal your husband,” My Mom told me coldly. | didn’t expect this from her.

“I'm sure that you heard what he said. He doesn’t want me there,” | crossed my arms and sat on the bench outside of his room while that bi tch stayed with him.

“You're not a kid, Matilda. Stop sulking and understand the situation. His life is in danger right now. You can fight with him after he gets healed,” Mom said calmly this time.

She knew that | wouldn’t listen to anyone’s command. | have been stubborn since

childhood.

“Fine,” | stomped my foot and glared at her. “But you won’t force me to accept this bullsh it. No one understands that I’m the Alpha, too. | also can’t share my mate with someone else. | thought that at least, you would understand this.”

Her eyes softened as she patted my shoulders, half-hugging me. “I understand, honey. | don’t support him f ucking around either. | care about my precious daughter. | just want you to heal him.”

| nodded again.

He was holding her hands though he struggled to stay conscious. | could smell the weakness and poison in his aura. Anew power that | unlocked on my birthday as | was a healer now.

F ucking bit ch. She was just pretending to be innocent. | could see her facade falling after returning to his room again. Prescott opened his mouth to say something with his eyes half-closed but | stopped. him.

“Shut the f uck up if you want to stay alive. We will talk once you're conscious,” | snarled at him and raised my hands over his body to let my powers seep into his body through my hands.

He gasped when my aura surrounded him and started healing his heart. It was a bit harder for my body to handle this because his wound was deep and | was using my healing powers for the first time.

‘Avery has shifted into her wolf form,’ Dad announced in the link.

| wished | could be with her when she was shifting. | knew how painful it was to shift early when your wolf was too strong.

| gritted my teeth as a piercing pain burst in my chest, making me sta gger.

“You... are... breathing heavily,’ Prescott pointed out through our link. | felt relieved as he used his powers again which meant that he was healed.

As if you care. | wanted to give him a snarky reply but chose to keep my mouth shut because it was hard to even breathe, let alone speak.

“Matilda,” Mom shrieked, closing the door behind her. | assumed that she felt my powers weakening through our blessed wolf bond which reminded me that | hadn’t returned her necklace yet.

Prescott was about to touch me when | took a step back.

“Don’t touch me with your filthy hands,” | snapped at him, clutching my chest. | hadn’t forgotten how he had held her hands as if his life was dependent on that.

“You're not the healer. Healers don’t get sick while healing others. That’s what their powers are for,” he accused me, narrowing his eyes at me.

Before | could speak, my mom made me sit on the couch and turn to face her son-in- law with blazing eyes.

“She received her powers last night only and you're her chosen mate so it affects her emotionally though she shouldn't get hurt because of a man who doesn’t even consider his wife's feelings and position in his life,” Mom lashed out at him.

Her taking a stand for me made me feel like | wasn’t all alone. | had her support and despite his notorious reputation, she didn’t fear him.

My pain cased slowly and my breathing grew normal.

“| would like no interference in our relationship. It’s between me and my wife,” Prescott said icily, getting up from the bed.

He held his head and sat back on the bed, groaning in pain.

“Matilda can only heal, not take away your pain so | suggest that you better take some rest and think about your actions and outcome,” Mom offered him a glass of water.

“The person whom you're calling your wife is my daughter. Imagine someone treating your daughter the way you're treating my daughter,” she said coldly.

His furious expression soon softened and a loud growl escaped from his throat. “I don’t want to hear any of this anymore,” Prescott commanded.

“Then, make sure that my daughter is treated well,” Mom told him. “Or else I'll find another husband for her who is faithful to her.” “She is f ucking mine, Camilla. Don’t you dare say this again. Leave before | lose my control,” he threatened my mom while | regained my strength. Healing him had weakened me slightly for a while.

*| want to talk to him alone, Mom,” | requested and she left immediately after telling me that she was with me.

“I'm not your property, Prescott. You don’t own me. | can’t deal with your fake personality anymore. | want a divorce,” | demanded, putting my hands on my hips.

“| didn’t fake anything, Tila. | love you but I care for Lola. She was my first love,” he said. softly, defending his actions.

“Gabriel was my first love, too. Should | also bring him here and hold his hands and insult you in front of everyone?” | growled furiously.

“That b ast ard cheated on you. He betrayed you. How can you compare me with him?” My mate barked, feeling offended.

| scoffed. “And what you just did was not less than a betrayal. You'll cheat on me and | want to leave you before that happens.” “| can’t help but still feel for Lola. She was the only person who loved me selflessly. |

thought that | had moved on from her but after seeing her again, those feelings

resurfaced and | realized that | still love her,” he confessed shamelessly in front of me.

My body was trembling with anger. | clenched my fists tightly by my side. As if his proximity with his ex wasn’t enough, he had to hurt me with his words.

He was so f ucking toxic. He couldn’t see me with someone else, not because he loved. me. It’s because he thought that he owned me while he was still screwing around.

“F uck you, Prescott White. I’m done with you,” | spat before turning my heels on.
