Alpha's cursed mate novel Chapter 9

Veras- the only place in the underworld which wasn't dark, it was rather enchanting with the beauty and placidity of Elysium- the heavens.

It was the terrain that Hades created for his Queen to be.

The god of the Underworld was gazing at the azure lagoon filled with ice cold water see with unmistakable rage.

He dragged his palm across a platinum sword, crimson liquid dripped down forming ripples in the lake.

Nector- the water was now nector ..... poison for him..nector for her.

Stepping inside the lagoon embarked with stairs his body made way down until only his shoulders were visible.

Gripping the sword harder in his wounded hand he gazed down at his reflection... unfathomable wrath swirling in the grey irises.

His eyes closed when he saw a vision.

She laID there limp with no sounds escaping her as fire seemed to burn her insides.

He lowered his wounded hand in freezing water....the blood of a god can heal anything.

A strong gust of wind from the small window above caressed her cheek, whirling around her....serenity, peace.

Another wave of anguish ripped through her stomach, her body curling into the fetus position.

Her untrue mate was having sex with another woman.

The mate bond will kill her.

But no mate bond or moon goddess has the potential to hurt her. King Hades will destroy it's essence before they can blink.

"MY LORD!" She screamed as tears poured down her eyes. Her breathing was scarce..she felt like she was drowning.

The flowers near the lagoon withered as Hades' head dipped underwater.

A breath for a breath...

She layed in the cell basking in the warmth and protection that the breeze seemed to carry with it, petrichor- the smell of rainy soil filled her lungs rejuvenating her broken spirit.
