Chapter 44

Special Chapter: Kayden's POV
I almost can't believe it but the realization hits me like a bucket of bolts. Margallo had been responsible all along. It had all been her master plan, but why? It really doesn't make any sense. It's our mating ceremony today, we're supposed to officially be mates so why would she cause pandemonium by poisoning the wine? Why would she do something like that, knowing it would ruin the ceremony? It almost seems like she never wanted it to happen but if she doesn't want me to become her mate then why has she always been so possessive of me? Why didn't she just say so despite how much she knows I want to end it as well. We could have just ended our bond on mutual grounds, via rejection and everyone would have been happy so why would she do something like this?
Why did she try to kill my brother? What on Earth could be her plan or her motive behind something so big? I'm not granted much time to think of answers as I hear a small thud and my eyes move back to Evelyn who laid weakly on the bed, looking like she'd pass out any second. Evelyn is only going through all of this hell because of that vile woman and I'll surely make her pay. It's only because of her that I have to see my love in such a condition.
