Chapter 128: Chapter 128: Fated Mates?!

“Well...” Matilda said with a sigh. She took a step back, wincing at the results on the screen. “All the tests seem to check out. From what I can tell, it seems like Hazel and Leo are...”

“Are?” Lucas, Liam, and Levi bunched together, practically squeezing their faces next to Matilda in anticipation.

Her eyes went wide as she moved slightly back and away from them. Then, she cleared her throat.

“They’re fated mates.”

The room fell into stunned silence. I felt like someone had dumped ice water over my head. No one moved. No one breathed.

“That’s not possible,” Lucas said finally, his voice tight.

“Run the test again,” Levi demanded, his face flushing with anger. “There must be a mistake.”

Liam said nothing, but his jaw clenched so hard I could see the muscle twitching beneath his skin.

Leo, who had been sitting quietly on a chair with his hands still bound, stood up abruptly.

“She can’t be my mate,” he said. His voice was rough, almost desperate. “That’s impossible.”

Matilda rubbed her temple, looking exhausted. “I’ve run the test three times already. There’s no mistake.”

“Could it be the serum?” Lucas asked sharply. “Something Esther gave them?”

Matilda shook her head. “I specifically tested for foreign substances. Both their blood samples are clean—no trace of any serum that might alter their biochemistry.”

“Run it again,” Leo insisted. “I’m pretty sure if Hazel were my fated mate, there would be a stronger pull.”

It wasn’t like I wanted Leo to be my fated mate, but with how he was so quick to deny it, it caused pain to flicker through me. I wasn’t sure at first, but with this strange feeling, it felt almost like the stamp that sealed the deal.
