"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
"Have you noticed how close Eloisa is to Alpha?"My ears perked up when I heard that. I didn't make it obvious that I heard what they were talking about. I tried to smile in front of them while taking the food that needed to be taken to the basement to give to the guards."Hey!" I greeted them with a smile."Hi, Crema!" they also greeted with a smile.I pretended to be nice in front of them even though I wanted to tear them apart one by one with the fang.I also know that they are just pretending to be nice in front of me and I am glad to pretend in front of them.When we got the food, we were going to deliver it to the basement for the guards. While walking in the corridor to the basement, I couldn't help but ask Martha about what Arwanas were gossiping about."Did you hear the gossip of the arwanas earlier?" I asked her."Uhmm, Yes. Are you affected again? Are you in a bad mood?" she asked back to me."Who doesn't get bad mood, Martha?" I asked with raised eyebrows."You know I don't
"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
"Martha!" he called Martha from behind.We immediately turned back, and I saw how Martha looked at Aries as if begging him not to approach her. But Aries came to us and begged her."Can I talk to you?" Aries asked with a glance at me.I hate the way he glanced at me because it's like he's just showing that Martha has no value to him. He could even do it in front of her. Martha looked at me like she's waiting for permission if it's okay for her to talk to this man. And I stopped him because I knew he would only get hurt more if he continued chasing Aries."She doesn't have time to talk to you, Aries. Let's go, Martha," I said while holding and pulling her hand.But before we got far, she stopped walking. I heard her breathing deeply while looking at me. I knew what she was going to say because she was a great fool, so she begged me because she wanted to talk to Aries, even for a moment."It's only for a moment, Crema," she said."Well, it’s up to you. I don't control your decision. But
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
"Crema?" he uttered.I took a deep breath to have the courage to face him. I turned and smiled seductively at him. He was obviously surprised by the change in my appearance. I approached him and smiled sweetly."What can you say about my new look, Alpha? Is it beautiful?" I asked seductively."Cool," he answered sparingly."Cool? That's it?" I asked."What do you want me to say? Okay, I was surprised!" he answered with a smile.I smiled at what he said and I invited him. I saw him glance at the wound on my hand. I bit my lip and smiled at him. He frowned and looked at me as he came closer. He held my hand and his face showed concern. He was mad when he saw it as if I would die if this man could react."It's nothing. I'm only injured a little but it won't kill me," I said with a smile."Did you mean it?!" he asked firmly."Easy, I just imitated what you did. It's okay," I teased him."It's not funny anymore, Crema," he replied angrily."What's not funny? I chose to injure it because I
"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,"
"Why are you so handsome?" I asked.He smiled when he heard what I said and I was surprised that I said that. I just bit my lip and smiled at what I told him."Am I handsome to you?" he asked with a smile."Y...yeah, maybe," I hesitantly answered.He couldn't lose the smile on his face while looking at me. I was trying to stop the electricity flowing through my body at that time. It was a strange connection that I couldn't explain to us. But before I finally got there, I asked him to stand up and asked him to take a walk in the forest.He immediately agreed and I walked closer to the water. I looked at him and invited him to come while I washed my feet in the water."Come on, Alpha!" I invited.He hesitated to approach me but I still flattered him. I smiled as I looked at him. With his body size, you wouldn't think I could soften him like that. But I always remind myself that despite the kindness he shows me, I shouldn't be fragile. I shouldn't I fell for the person who killed my pare
