Aria No one understood what was going on. 'why are they all here?' Aria asks herself. "wha..." Aria's voice was weak. She almost didn't believe that was what came out of her, "what is going on?" she asked weakly. her body falling to the ground without control.'what is happening to me?' she thought to herself as she tried to keep her eyes from closing. from the dim light that was threatening to disappear from her heavy eyes that wanted to close, Aria saw Erika running towards Brian. 'Erik...' Aria thought shut down. She lost consciousness.Aria felt a headache in her head. She tried using her hands to ease the pain she felt in her head, but her hands couldn't move. realizing that her hands couldn't move made her sharply open her eyes. She was in a dim room, tied to a chair. her hands were tied to the back of the chair along with her legs. Aria took in a deep breath, trying to calm herself. she looked around and saw Alpha Bryant and Kaiser. Aria was surprised to see that they w
Aria "leave me alone." Aria turned towards the door of the room she had been captured in as she heard beta Brian's voice. he sounded weak. the door abruptly opened. a mysterious figure dressed in black attire with a mask and a hood over its face pushes Beta Brian's chair to the floor.just like the rest of them, he was tied the same way, Aria was surprised that his chair wasn't even broken with the way he landed with a loud thud.beta Brian grunted in pain.the dark figure walked towards him and took his chair up. "What did you do to him?!" alpha Bryant shouted. his eyes were aflame with rage. "I thought we were the only ones here." kaiser said.the dark figure ignores them, walks towards the door, and shuts it close. Brian had been badly beaten up. his eyes were swollen. "Brian!" Aria's voice was filled with fear, she didn't like how weak Brian looked. his eyes looked like he could barely look at them. as though he wanted to shut them forever. "stay awake." Aria was afraid th
Aria 'how can he call himself my husband when he hasn't even noticed that I have gone missing.' Aria thought angrily about Zane. 'but then again can I blame him when our marriage means nothing to him. he was no longer a prince, he was now the king. finding a new wife was going to be easy for him. The elders would be happy too.' Aria couldn't force herself to think happy thoughts. she didn't know how many days it had been. with the way the room they were locked in was constructed, it was hard to tell which time was night and which was day. Aria knew the day when the room was hot, and the night whenever the room was cold. she was barely eating. her strange kidnapper fed her, but at first, she rejected the food. the second time she threw a tantrum and almost spilled the food away. third time Aria gave in and ate a tiny bit because there was no point in letting herself die when she still didn't know who wanted to kill her and why they were stalling. "Why are you three being so stubbo
Aria "what do you plan on gaining by doing all this?" Nadia ask. Aria thought her questions were directed at Erika but then noticed how she kept her questioning gaze on Brian.'He...' Aria thought back to the time she saw Brian and Erika together. everything he said about Erika. all this while, 'he did this.' even though Aria knew that Brian was partly responsible for what was going on, she still couldn't believe it. "I don't know what you are talking about." beta Brian said. but Aria could tell that he was lying. he always sounds like that whenever he has been caught in the act. it was hard for him to hide his guilt. That was how Aria noticed that something was off with him back then when he was hiding Bryant's relationship with Jenny. Nadia gave out a scoff. "don't you dare touch him!" Erika attacked Nadia again. Aria was surprised with how much strength she had, but that wasn't the only surprising thing. Brian refused to look at any of them in the eye. "did you do this?" k
Aria "Lillian, I never expected this from you." alpha Bryant said, "you know how much I hate Aria and yet you betrayed me by working with her maid to tie me up." Aria rolled her eyes at Alpha Bryant, she had lost count of the number of times she heard Alpha Bryant and Kaiser say that they hated her."How dare you drag my mate into this Brian. if this whole thing was just you, I wouldn't be that surprised." "This attitude of yours is the reason I agreed to Brian's plan," Lillian said, she frowned at Bryant. "I can't stand you acting like this in front of me anymore. I swear that I would go crazy if I heard you grumble about how much you hate Aria." "I'm already going crazy," Aria said in a snarky tone."I'm not talking to you, murderer." Lillian retorted. "you three need to make up, until then I'm not setting you free Bryant." Lillian left the room in anger. Erika hurried after her. "so what is it going to be guys." Brian took out his chair, turned it around, sat on it, and rested
Aria Aria listened to Alpha Bryant as he asked Brian about the ongoing war. "I send the soldiers home." beta Brian said nonchalantly. "it's a good thing that the pack members still recognized me as the Beta even though I came to Esterial just when the war was about to begin." "you have no right to do that." alpha Bryant struggled against the ropes, if not for the wolfbane, he would have changed into his wolf."I'm deeply sorry alpha Bryant." Brian apologized. he didn't sound like he was sorry. "there's currently no war, it has been called off. Well I was the one who called it off, and don't worry, I gave a heartfelt apology to the other pack you aligned yourself with." "you have ruined everything!" kaiser shouted in rage. "I'm going to kill you." alpha Bryant shouted. Aria remained quiet, she didn't know what to say. was Brian wrong?"of course you want to kill me, just the same way you want to kill Aria." Brian glared harshly at his friends. he was running out of patience. "I'm
Aria "you two be honest with yourself." Brian's voice was directed to Alpha Bryant and Kaiser. he was bold, angry, and unafraid of his alpha, and his friends. he was someone Aria couldn't be back then before she ran away from the pack. she had allowed her anger and hatred to get into her head. from all of Brian's words, Aria was starting to think of what could have happened if she had told him back then of her dumb plan, he would have snapped her out of it. taught her how to handle things in a way that wouldn't lead to blood share. it wouldn't be the first time they fought each other as friends. but the issue Jenny brought into their life was too big for any of them to grasp. it was something that none of them were prepared for. Jenny didn't only poison Alpha Bryant's mind with her lies, but she had also poisoned Aria's heart, slowly she made Aria's heart darker until she ended up turning into a sick person. her sickness was something that Brian couldn't cure, his good, pure heart c
Aria "uh," Aria said. it had been two days now since Brian poured out his frustrations on them. they were still tied up but after what happened with Brian, no one said anything. They haven't argued or sent death threats to each other like the first time they did when they found themselves tied up. "about what Brian said." Aria struggles to get the words out. someone needed to say something and it had to be her, even though Brian made it seem as though what happened between them wasn't her fault, Aria still felt like it was all her fault. She knew what to say but whenever she opened her mouth all the words she had practiced inside her head disappeared as though she never had a talk with herself inside her mind before opening her mouth. "I'm sorry Bryant. I'm sorry for everything I did." Alpha Bryant was quiet. he didn't say a word back to Aria. he and Kaiser remained quiet. Aria's apology didn't go the way she wanted it to. because of everything Brian said, she felt bad about killin
