Chloe's POV

After what feels like hours of silence, Jason finally pulls himself up as Angelo offers him a helping hand and then, Lizzie runs into his arms kissing him. Someone remind me why I haven't killed this woman?

When Jason was in pain, she didn't even feel as much bothered, her eyes were trained on Marcus the whole time, I didn't need anyone to tell me, she was still in love with my man when she was already mated to my brother. Such a stupid lowlife.

I glanced towards her direction with a tight frown and she avoided my eyes as she cried on Jason's shoulders.

Those tears were fake, I know fake tears when I see them.

"Are you happy now Jason?" I asked, breaking the silence as he glared hard at me but my stance did not falter.

"If you tried to behave mature for once this wouldn't have happened."

"Don't you dare talk to me about maturity, how I decide to handle issues is none of your business. You've no right to tell me how to act, not like I told you to marry a public toilet. You disgust me right now Chloe Zephora, you're just a disgrace both to werewolves and vampires, I don't want to see your face ever again, you're just bad luck."

"Jason!" Angelo calls with a warning tone but I was already a crying mess before Jason realized his mistakes and started apologizing.

More tears streamed down my eyes as Jason's words replayed in my head.

Marcus used that moment to act like a loving husband and started putting his hands on me making my skin crawl.

Right now, disgust was mild to describe how I felt.

I flung his hand away, he was the reason we were going back to square one after Jason's promise to mom never to insult or embarrass me again.

He tried again the second time and I turned around with a violent force that scared me and landed a heavy slap on his face making him stagger. From the corner of my eyes, I saw Angelo and Jason smirk.

"Don't you get the message Alpha Marcus, keep your filthy hands to yourself. You disgust me, the sight of you repulses me, just go away, I don't want to ever see you again, go just go." I say shoving him on the chest as tears streamed down my eyes in torrents.

"Baby please, let me explain..."

"I'm fed up! I'm fed up with your numerous explanations, Alpha Marcus Blackwood! That's the only thing you've done since we've gotten married. You were not the only werewolf at that time, you were just irresponsible, you're so relaxed with the fact that I forgive you for all your mishaps, that's why you hurt me over and over again."

"What are you saying Chloe, have I ever done anything wrong to you ever since we got married? Everything that has ever threatened our love is from our past, you're my present and future baby and I don't want it any other way. Please can we just leave so I can explain everything to you from the beginning?"

The sincerity in his tone and the look in his eyes made me weak inside. I felt like my whole body had melted and I had no choice than to give in to his demands, this was one of the effects my mate had on me.

I was about to take a step when I heard Angelo's voice making me stop dead in my tracks and I turned to him fiddling with my fingers like a toddler caught stealing candy.

"My sister is not going anywhere with you until we settle this." Angelo said with a tone of finality and I saw the look of fear in Marcus' eyes.

I couldn't tell what he was afraid of, Angelo or what was to come and so I was determined to find out.

"What the fuck are you talking about? This is a personal issue between me and my wife and you've no right to interfere. Learn to respect boundaries or go get a mate so you won't die single." Angelo growled harshly as he clenched his fists together.

"Listen Marcus, I respect the fact that you're my sister's husband, but I would not appreciate you putting her in harm's way because of these repeated problems. If you decide to flaunt my orders, I would not hesitate to deal with you, just so you know, I've not forgiven you for what happened the last time, so respect yourself."

That seemed to do the magic as Marcus' eyes remained on the ground and everywhere remained silent waiting for him to speak and just when he summoned the courage to, Jason cut him off abruptly.

"You must be joking to think I'd let you tell your abridged version of the story, so you can feed my sister with more lies? Nah! We're not that stupid! I want my sister to know you for who you truly are, I've always had my suspicions about you, I think now is the time to reveal your true identity."

"Babe, believe me, nothing is the truth, these people have ganged up against me. Nothing they'd say is the truth, I've never lied to you baby and I don't intend to, please just listen to me."

Jason was right, it was obvious that Marcus had done something really terrible that he was trying to hide and I would not leave this place until I heard everything.

"How do you know they ganged up on you when you've not heard anything from them?" I asked with brows raised and he was suddenly tongue tied as beads of sweat gathered his forehead despite the cold state of this place.

"I agree with my brothers, no one leaves until we hear everything from the beginning."

I signaled the maids to get us drinks and chairs because my legs were aching and shaking badly.

We all sat as we all listened to Lizzie, whose eyes were focused on Marcus as he shifted on his seat.
