Mated to my sister’s ugly mate

Shadow had already walked out of the Castle gates, still flushing from the incident. However, just as she was heading over to the bus station, she heard the car engine whistle right behind her.

Pursing her lips, she finally turned around to see that the black Bentley had stopped right beside her. Its tinted windows gleamed against the bright sunlight, and she squinted her eyes.

Soon, the window lowered, revealing Alpha Dominic ‘s handsome but annoying face. She could feel her annoyance rising in an instant, and her hands fidgeted from the suddenness. What the hell was he doing here?

Alpha Kilian narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice. “Get in the car. I’ll take you to work.”

“There’s no need,” Shadow rejected him directly, not wanting to be stared at again.

If “Alpha Dominic ” dropped her off, she’d be susceptible to office gossip once again. After lying low during the weekend, she wasn’t planning to push herself back into the spotlight! She shook her head.

However, “Alpha Dominic ” didn’t look that bothered. He grinned as his ink-like eyes turned dark. There was a mocking tinge to his words as he stared up at her. “What are you so afraid of?”

What was she so afraid of?

Shadow froze at his line of questioning. Only then did she realize that she had been treating him coldly all this time, not because she was annoyed with him, but because she was afraid of him.

Although she had always acted as if she hated him, she had to admit that he was quite an outstanding man.

For a long time, she had regarded him as an arrogant man, who was far too obsessed with his fortune and status in society. But now, she realized that he was much more than that. “Alpha Dominic ” was a natural born leader, with enough confidence to conquer the mountains.

He may be a bit of an ass, but during the times he was good to her, she could feel the genuineness in his actions. He was the type of man who stuck with his word, and she couldn’t help but admire him for that.

“Alpha Dominic ” could easily move her heart if he had wanted to.

And that was exactly the reason why she should stay far away from him.

As she had repeatedly told herself back then, she was now ‘Young Madame Lances’. She was Alpha Kilian ‘s wife, and that title will follow her for the rest of her life. There was no way she’d back out of her duties now. So she had to behave herself.

That’s why she was so afraid of becoming close to him. She was afraid that she would love him.

Seeing that Shadow didn’t speak for a long time, Alpha Kilian continued, “Or are you starting to have inappropriate thoughts towards me?”

“Of course not!” Shadow immediately refuted him.

By the time she came back to her senses, she had already pulled open the car door and sat in the passenger seat. A red flush colored her cheeks as she turned her attention to the window beside her. ‘This man is going to be the death of me,’ she thought.

“Alpha Dominic ” didn’t bother to say anything more. Although his expression displayed no emotion, there was a trace of happiness out of success hidden in his dark gaze.

“How much is this car of yours?” She mustered up the courage to say something, suddenly feeling rather guilty with the entire predicament.

“It’s not that expensive.”

Not that expensive? She blinked. Even she didn’t need to be a car enthusiast to know how rare this car was. Back when she was still a student, she’d see rich kids driving up to the school gate to impress their classmates. Shadow had seen plenty of sports cars and Bentleys, but not like this.

This must’ve been really expensive.

“The production of this car stopped a few years ago.” Alpha Kilian glanced at her and said.

“I just…”

“If you want, flatter me and I can consider giving it to you.”

When he saw Shadow ‘s face changed, he realized the implication of his words.

If he was Alpha Kilian , it would be understandable for him to give the car to her. But it would be inappropriate for ‘Alpha Dominic ‘ to say it to her. He turned the other way, unsure of what to say next.

They were silent the entire ride.

As soon as they reached the company, Shadow turned towards him. “Thank you.”

Although her voice was polite, there was a deep sense of alienation. ‘He’s Alpha Kilian ‘s cousin,’ she told herself the entire ride as if the thought was enough to erase her softness towards him.

Just as she had closed the door and turned around, she bumped into Jessica .

Glancing at the black Bentley behind her, Jessica ‘s face darkened in disdain and ridicule. “You really got along with Alpha Kilian ‘s cousin, don’t you? He’s even picking you up every day. Careful, if anyone else were to see, you’d look like a couple.”

“We’re family, so it’s normal for us to get along well… but then again, that might not be something that you’re used to.” Shadow took a few steps forward to approach Jessica . She lowered her voice to a whisper that only they could hear, “After all, I personally don’t dabble in places like Sky Light Club. Instead of worrying about me, I’d say the same goes for you.”

At her words, Jessica ‘s expression stiffened, but she quickly regained her composure. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“All I’m saying is that you shouldn’t be going to places like Sky Light Club.” Shadow stepped back, smiling brightly at her. But even her gentle face couldn’t hide her threatening voice. “After all, Dad wouldn’t like that.”NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

Although Jason didn’t love her, he still found some use with her. She was Alpha Kilian ‘s wife, so she was still of great use. If her father knew what Jessica had done, he’d surely turn against her.

They both understood that well enough.

However, Jessica wasn’t threatened that easily. “And who’ll believe you?”

“Shadow , do you get off work at the same time? I’ll come pick you up.”

Suddenly, Alpha Dominic ‘s voice reverberated from the roadside. Shadow turned back and stared at him blankly. Although her face was impassive, her eyes held panic and accusations to the man in the driver’s seat.

However, Alpha Kilian acted as if he didn’t understand her. Instead, he stayed where he was and simply gazed in her direction, not bothering to leave until he heard her answer.

Was he truly that stubborn?

“Yes.” She nodded.

“Hm.” He shot Jessica a glare before driving off.

Jessica shivered in fear. However, at the sight of the Bentley, even she couldn’t hide the greed in her face.

If she had known that Alpha Kilian had such an outstanding cousin, she would’ve easily married into the Lances family. Perhaps “Alpha Dominic ” would be the one sending her to work every day.

Remembering the black card Shadow had taken out that day in Golden Fountain Club, Jessica ‘s hands clenched into fists. If she was the one who had been given that card, her life would’ve already been set!

She should be the one marrying into the Lances family!

Shadow turned her head and saw Jessica greedily eyeing “Alpha Dominic ‘s” car.

She curled her lips in mockery. “Does big sister regret giving her fiance to me now?” She plastered a sweet smile on her face. “But it’s useless for you to regret. Even if Alpha Kilian is willing to divorce me, he wouldn’t mated you even if you’re the last woman in the world.”

Although Jessica ‘s scandals had already died down, her reputation was already ruined. Even if Alpha Kilian was a cripple, it would be weird for the Lances family to accept someone like her.

Jessica ‘s expression turned ugly after her thought was disclosed by Shadow .

But her expression quickly returned to normal. She brushed her hair and said proudly. “Please, I don’t want to mated a cripple like Alpha Kilian .”

What she wanted was “Alpha Dominic “.

If they were together, Jessica ‘s life would be filled with endless possibilities.

Shadow was nothing more than a country bumpkin. So what if she was beautiful? In terms of satisfying and dealing with men, she couldn’t hold a candle towards her!

Although Shadow couldn’t guess Jessica ‘s thoughts, she could tell that the woman was thinking about hooking up with “Alpha Dominic “.

‘It’s like flirting with a lunatic. There’s no use talking to her.’ Shadow thought.

However, she wasn’t going to stand by and let this bitch talk about her husband that way. Jessica could say all she wants to her, but not to him!

“So what if Alpha Kilian ‘s a cripple? You’re not any better even if you have two working legs! I suggest you think twice before speaking against my husband.” Not knowing how else to vent her anger, Shadow fiercely stepped on Jessica ‘s foot before walking into the company.

“You slut!” Jessica screamed, chasing after her.

At that time, Alpha Kilian , who should have left long ago, expressionlessly stepped out behind a large pillar from the side, staring at their retreating figures.
