Chapter 13: Sacrificed to my sister’s mate
Jade’s pov
I woke up early as always and went on a run.
I stopped when I got to the cliff and just sat there looking at the view.
All that drinking last night was actually a really terrible idea.
And then I woke up and went on a run like some idiot.
I just sat there and watched as the sun came out.
After a few hours, I decided to get up and go back to the house.
Today, I am leaving.

I will be going to Alpha Dante’s pack. I don’t know how to feel about any of this right now. I know I should be angry, I know that I should feel something, but I feel nothing about any of it.
What does this mean?
As I was walking home, someone suddenly stood in front of me to block me.
I looked up, and standing there was Hannah.
Hannah is Sasha’s best friend, and for some reason, she hates my guts. To her, I am nothing but just the girl who has taken everything away from her best friend.
“You must be happy,” She said with a frown, and I didn’t answer her.
“You like all of this, don’t you? You like the fact that now you also have her husband.” She explained what she meant. I didn’t answer and just stepped to the other side to walk away.
“What kind of sister are you? What do you always want what your sister has?” She asked me, and I looked
at her confused.
“What is it that I have wanted that belonged to Sasha?” I asked her, and she scoffed.
“You took away her right. You became coven leader when she is the oldest.” She said, and I sighed.
“I started training when I was 10 years old. I don’t know much, but show me a 10-year-old who has malicious intentions. I didn’t make the decision. My mother and the elders of the Coven made the decision.” I added, and then sighed.
“You are still thinking with your heart and not your mind. Use your common sense, Hannah. You are too old to act like a high school bully.” I said, and then walked away.
“Really? Both you and I know that if you want to, then you can easily find another Coven. If you wanted, then you could have easily said no to all of this.” She yelled, and I turned around to look at her.

“And had I said no, wouldn’t I still be the villain in your head? I would be the girl who refused to help her sister save her marriage. There is no winning with people like you. Whatever I do, you will always find fault
in it,” I said, and then walked away. This time, she didn’t say anything. She didn’t argue.
I went to my room and then took a shower, and my eyes landed on my room.
The plants and herbs in my room. I know my Dad and Jay have been taking care of them while I was away,
which explains why they are still in such great health even after 6 years of me being away.
These plants and herbs help me regulate my magic when I am sleeping. Not only that, but I find it
convenient when I need to make portions, and I don’t need to go to the garden.
I will never ever see this room again in my entire life.
This is the last time, and knowing this feels kind of bittersweet. I have so many good and bad memories in
this room.
I am making the right decision, right?
The more I think about it, the more confused I get. Am I making the right decision?
At times, it feels like I am walking out of the frying pan and directly into the fire.
I took my bags and as I opened my door and picked up the bags, a hand held mine.
“I will do it,” Alpha Dante said, taking away those heavy bags like they were nothing.
“No, there is no need for that. I can do it myself.” I said, and he looked at me.
“I didn’t say you can’t, just that I want to.” He answered. His gray eyes were on me as if he were trying to
read me or something.
“What’s wrong?” I asked him, and he just shrugged as he shook his head.
“Nothing, did you sleep well the apple of my eye?” He asked me, and I frowned.
He chuckled after saying this and then walked away.
I should be annoyed because I don’t have a clue what he is talking about. It felt like he was mocking me,
and I don’t like being mocked.
But instead, I can’t get over the fact that he looked really handsome when he smiled.
Why did I think it was a good idea to agree to marry him?
One little encounter with him has turned my life upside down.
Now, I am just supposed to sleep with him and not feel anything. Can I do such a thing?
He kissed my neck when he thought I was someone else, and that had been engraved in my mind.
Because of that small incident, he has been haunting my dreams.
I will admit, for the longest time, I had nightmares every time I slept. But to be honest, I would rather have

those nightmares and night terrors than sex dreams about my brother-in-law.
I sighed, and before I could take a step, Mrs Odell stood in front of me.
“Let’s talk,” She said, and I nodded as I headed to my room where we could talk privately.

“I am guessing even your room is soundproof?” She asked me, and I nodded. “Good, then you and I can
talk without fear.”
Her blue eyes held this intensity in them that I could tell she felt strongly about what she was about to say.
“When we get to my house, I don’t want any drama. You will do your duty, and then, when the time comes for you to leave, then you will do so.” She said, and I looked at her. “Sasha is your sister. You might be angry with her for all of this. But I expect that you won’t want revenge.”
“Why would I want revenge against my own sister?” I asked her, and she smiled.
“Good, I want you to remember this when you get there. That Sasha is your sister, and you shouldn’t destroy her life. A woman destroyed my family and took away my husband. I know how that feels, don’t be the reason your sister feels that pain.” She said and turned to walk away.
“Isn’t it a little unfair, Mrs Odell?” I asked her, and she turned around to look at me. “You’re comparing me to the woman who stole your husband. Isn’t it a little of a stretch?”
She frowned at this.
“I didn’t seduce your son, and I was miles away from him when all of this was decided. Then what gives you the right to call me a home wrecker?” I asked her.
“I didn’t call you that.” She said, and I scoffed.
“You didn’t need to say it in words, Mrs Odell. But let me make one thing really clear to you. I have no interest in your son. I am the victim in this scenario. I am the one who has been sacrificed to my sister’s mate. And I am the girl who will also be giving you your first grandchild, maybe your only grandchild. Give me a little respect for my sacrifice.” I said, and then walked out of the room.
Why? Why do people always assume that I want to take things from my sister? Why did she say those
things?
I am the one who said that I would leave, and this marriage will end when all is said and done. If I wanted
to wreck their marriage, then why would I say that?
Is this how I will be treated?
