Seducing My Ex's Father In Law by Caroline Above Story

Chapter 787

Third Person POV

The night was thick with fog that clung to the skin like breath and dulled the moonlight. Inside the old study of the Blackwell estate, candles burned low, their flames trembling as if they, too, were afraid.

Daisy stood at the edge of the room, her arms wrapped tightly around herself as she watched Lila work. Her mind was calculating; she was sick of this. Last night was the worst night she’s had in a long time. The pain she felt made her black out entirely; she was vulnerable in the forest and could have been killed by rogues. Thankfully, she wasn’t, and she sought Lila out shortly after waking up.

It wasn’t normal pain; it wasn’t from Noah having his way with yet another woman. That kind of pain she was used to. No… this pain was different.

He had marked this other woman.

For a normal wolf, marking another woman would tear apart a mate bond, no matter how strong. A wolf only bonds with one at a time; a new mark would replace an old one. But Noah could mark multiple wolves at a time. Daisy knew she wasn’t the only one he had marked, but it was the first time he had marked someone else after her and the first time she had ever felt that kind of pain.

She couldn’t do it anymore. Her love for him was gone, and the only thing left was this aching void meant to be the bond. Her wolf had long disappeared, unable to handle her chosen mate being unfaithful for all these years.

Daisy was weak and needed this bond to be broken so she could start to heal. She wanted to start over. She hoped that once Lila activated the gem and got her powers back, she could break the bond between Noah and Daisy and then give Daisy’s wolf the strength to recover so Daisy could finally get her life back.

But it looked like it wasn’t Lila that Diasy needed because the gem clearly doesn’t belong to her. It didn’t work for her. It was supposed to be her blood that activated the gem, but it didn’t work. Lila was stubborn, though, and refused to admit defeat; in her mind, she was the true daughter of the Blackwells, but Daisy knew that wasn’t the case, regardless of her denial.
