"What trouble happened between you and Eloisa?" he asked with a frown.I just shook my head and held my breath at what he said. His brow furrowed even more. I couldn't help but stare at his handsome face even though it was still furrowed."What now? Don't you intend to answer?" he asked me.We both stared at each other for a while and his eyes seemed to be talking to me. It was as if he didn't want to let go of that look on me. I slowly approached him and immediately kissed him while pulling his clothes firmly. It took a few seconds; he was stunned for a moment after I kissed him."Do you think you will change your mind?" I asked him."What do you mean, Crema?" he asked me."What if you realize that I am not really your mate. There is another mate destined for you. What if you change your mind?" I asked him.I will admit that I am nervous about his answer for reasons I can't explain. I could see the smile on his red lips. And those smiles soften my feelings."Crema, I can't be wrong.

"She's dead," he said in a broken tone of voice.I couldn't believe what I heard from him, but he was so serious as he looked at me. I asked him again to confirm what he said because maybe he was just joking, but it's true. Aries found Aryana's body that no one could recognize because her body parts were missing and only her clothes could confirm that he was that corpse."Are you sure about what you're saying, Alpha?" I asked him in disbelief."I'm sure, Crema. Aries found her body. The Rogues killed her mercilessly!" he answered firmly.I don't know what to say or react to what I found out. I don't know if I will be happy or feel guilty about what I found out."But you know if there's anyone to blame here, it's me. I wish I hadn't allowed her to come back here. Her life was quiet and it only became chaotic when she chose to come back here because of the series of attacks in the Wound Woods, ”he answered."We are not always in control of the situation so don't blame yourself for what

"Eloisa said maybe I should give you space or time because Imight be annoying to you. I know I shouldn't act this way but I can't, Crema," he admitted.I feel the butterflies in my stomach again. But I'm still disgusted by Eloisa's manipulation of his mind. I know Eloisa is taking advantage of the opportunity to get close to him. But I can't let her just do it. That woman can't steal mine, especially if I will not let her ruin my plans."That sneaky woman! She is just manipulating you, Alpha. Do you think I will be happy with what you are doing with her? I thought it was clear to you that I don't want you to be entertained by other women. If you want to claim me as your mate," I told him firmly."But until when, Crema?" he asked."So you can't wait that's why you're already entertaining other woman?" I asked firmly back.I heard him sigh and he apologized to me for what he had done.He even told me that he would do everything so that I could forgive him. I smiled at what he said beca

I immediately straightened myself up and wiped my tears before heading to the door to open it."Wait for a while," I spoke.When I opened the door of my room, Martha appeared in front of me.She had some medicine and gave it to me and I smiled at her even though my heart was burdened."Alpha ordered me to bring you medicine," he said.It's obvious she's lethargic in the way she talks. I just held my breath because I'm sure Aries is the reason for this."I think you need that more than me, Martha," I smirked."Crema!" she said annoyed."Come inside. Let's talk," I smiled and invited her inside.When we got inside, she sat down on the seat in front of me. She asked me if I was feeling okay. But I immediately turned the topic to what she and Aries talked about."How are you feeling? Take medicine first, Crema," she said."No need. I'm good now," I replied with a smile."Anyway, let's talk about you and Aries. What did he tell you?" I asked curiously."Well," the tone of her voice was sad

"Are you sure you don't love Alpha?" she asked me.I couldn't immediately answer her question and suddenly my heart beat faster. His sweet smiles and the way he looked at me suddenly came to my mind. It sends strange electricity to my body. But I know myself I know that is not love. I will not love a man who killed my parents."No," I answered sparingly.“No? Why are you jealous? First, Aryana and now Eloisa. Isn't that still called love?" she teased me."I don't know about you. You talk a lot," I answered annoyed.Martha smiled like crazy and I said goodbye to her. And while I was walking in the corridor, I met Alexis. I smiled at him sweetly and she only smiled at me too."Good job, Alexis," I said with a smile.He was surprised by what I said and looked at me. But I only responded with a smile at that time.When I got back to the dining table, I saw the arwanas fixing the table. My eyes immediately searched for him so I asked them where their Alpha was."He's in the Arena, Crema,"
