My Sister-In-Law Is My Mate!?!

"Can we not stay with each other without any fight and accept the fate we have chosen?"  the words continued to rung in her ears like a needle piercing her skin.

Yet she nodded her head as that was what she was supposed to do.

A bitter smile formed on his lips as he nodded back and let her go! She stood up from his lap and sat on the other side of the carriage but did not speak a word.

"Daisy! You can come back inside!" Alex mind linked the girl who was standing outside the carriage with pins and needles below her feet.

She only wanted to turn invisible and leave from this place. But she knew it was not only her, but all the wolves of the pack felt the same.

With reluctant steps, Daisy walked back to the carriage which soon started riding again. But this time it was completely silent inside the carriage except the sound of breathing.

Daisy looked at Alex, whose eyes were closed as if he was sleeping than the forlorn Hazel, who was staring out of the window, lost in her thoughts and sighed.

That was why the mates should only be chosen as wives! Why did alpha choose a luna who was not his mate!

He could not help but grumble with a sigh as she was as helpless as others were!

Daisy thanked the moon goddess whom she was cursing just a while ago, when they finally reached the ministry where they should be!

She was the first to walk out of the carriage with such speed as if the demons were chasing her.

She held the door for Hazel who walked out after her followed by Alex.

As they entered the corridor, they could see all the members of the ministry were not on their seats but standing in small groups and talking with strange expressions on their faces.

"Yes! They did not know who she was!"

"But I heard that both daughters are missing! It could be one of them or both!"

"I still did not understand how the beast came into the place! And why did the knights not find out about it!"

"The most queer thing was, he only attacked the daughter of the palace neither maid notr knights felt its presence" 

"Yes! And there was so much gore, I heard that pieces were so small that they could fit in a small bag!"

"He must have eaten a few parts of her face therefore they are not able to identify who she was exactly!"

"Poor soul! What a gruesome death did she have?"

"What do you think, could it be our new head?"

The sound of the gossip had filled the entire room. While a few of them felt sympathetic for the girl, the rest of them were only enjoying the gossip.

Who would have thought that the girl would die this way!? That was sensational news as these kinds of events never happened in the empire before.

They were still wondering whether they should go to the count's palace or not! When they heard the sound of footsteps. 

None of them cared to turn and see who was coming since they were sure that the person would join them soon.

But instead of the company, they heard a cold voice,

"What is happening here? Why have you gathered a crowd and why were you not working?" They all truend with a frown on their face but were stunned to see the girl standing in front of them.

As if they had seen a ghost, a few of them took their steps back when they saw hazel!

Their eyes had widened and their lips had parted in shock that a bunch of eggs could be filled in their open mouths.

They all were frozen at their place!

Hazel had heard their conversation and her heart was beating loudly yet she kept her face neutral and faked obliviousness!

"What is happening here? Why is there so much crowd?" she enunciated her words slowly as they finally blinked and come back to their senses with an uproar.

All of them started talking about when Jonathan, who was sitting silently on the corner and had not spoken a word since he came to know about the accident, ran towards her and took her into his arms.

He was looking so relieved to see her alive that many exchanged glances and finally there was a bit of silence.

"Oh hazel! I can not explain how happy I am to see you alive! I was so horrified when I heard the news that I was not even able to talk like all of them!" he shook his head as his grip on her body tightened.

She snorted! What a jerk! Did he still think that he could flutter her heart with that lousy acting of his.

Just when she was about to push him away. A strong grip holds both of Jonathan's hands and jerks him away.

"What do you think you are doing?" asked Alex in a cold voice but Jonathan was equally flared up as he looked at Alex like he was just a pest!

"And who do you think you are to ask me that? Keep your nose away from my matters!" or he would beat him and throw him out of the empire.

His cold and authoritative aura was strong that always that everyone took a step back.

"Did you forget that lady Hazel is married now? Or do you want me to call her husband to settle the score with you.

I never knew that the lord of the duke family was so shameless to force himself on a married woman publicly!" He left no mercy while showing a mirror to the fuming man whose hands had already clenched into a fist.

The aide soon came out cutting the crowd as he held the shoulder of Jonathan, 

"Please do not misunderstand, the boss was just a bit hazy due to the sudden news!"
