"Can you just fucking mind your business and stop asking me about Tala anymore because that wouldn't get us to our goal, it would only be a distraction" he said and I could feel the tears flowing down my eyes.
"Why are you crying now?" He asked, feeling irritated but he stood up to meet me.
"You obviously don't care about me Asher and I'm sorry if I had been pushing this relationship so far" I apologized with my head bowed but he lifted my face to look at his .
"Come on, why would you say that?" He asked and his voice suddenly became softer than it was.
"I was badly injured while I went to meet Alaric, I could have died but you didn't care about that, rather you were being really mean to me."
"Take this!" He ordered as he approached me with two tablets in his hand and a cup of water from the small table beside the bed.I stared at the drugs for some while as I contemplated whether or not to use the drugs, I didn't trust him and wasn't sure they were safe."The doctor gave them to me" he said like he was somehow reading my mind and I nodded my head as I collected the tablets from him and gulped them down with the water beside me."Thanks" I said but he didn't reply to me as he went back to sit down.My mind was filled with different thoughts as I kept on thinking of how I could make him go far away from the room without him noticing anything.I wasn't with my phone and there was no way I could reach out
"Excuse me" I replied to him as I adjusted my clothes back on and left the room.I didn't want to go back to my room because I still feared Alaric might be there.I could hear Asher calling me back but I needed some space away from him to clear my mind from what he had just said, not like I wasn't hurt but I couldn't possibly let him know how bad his words got to me.I reached Ariel's room and knocked really loudly on it, hoping she would be available and free for me and my prayers were actually answered when she opened the door to meet me and the smile on her face slowly turned to concern."You still don't look good, are you sure nothing's wrong?" She asked and I shook my head at her before walking past her into her room, her roommate wasn't around and I was kind of glad.&nbs
ALARIC'S POVLying on the bee in my room while I stared at the blank ceiling, I wasn't at ease and couldn't bring myself to calm as I kept changing my position on the bed.I really want to wrap her in my arms again but I couldn't, I had immediately stood up from her bedwheb I realized I couldn't hold it in anymore.Every fibre in me wants nothing more than marking her and fucking her brains out but I had to be patient, not just for me but for her sanity because I really cared for her.Other lycans probably wouldn't care about her feelings and would instantly mark and mate her but u was very aware of the fact that the bastard had turned her down a day before I arrived, who the fuck in their right senses would turn down such a beautiful girl like her.
"Where is the bastard?" I growled at him and could immediately hear the sound of pee, was he seriously peeing on himself? My anger must have made him really scared."I...I don't know" he quivered and I sighed, he must definitely be saying the truth, he doesn't look like one who talks until he's asked to."He hasn't been around for some hours now" he added as his teeth gritted against each other in fear."Damn it!" I roared as the walls suddenly shook.Different thoughts started to go through my mind and I wondered if Lenora was safe wherever she could be because I won't even trust that bastard around her but she doesn't want to accept the fact that he's bad for her."What if he's t
LENORA'S POVThe noises, they were getting too loud as they kept on bothering my ear. I tried to open my eyes but it was like my whole body was too weak for that but the noises were getting awkwardly too loud that I used every last fibre in me to open my eyes.The image in front of me wasn't any satisfying as my weak eyes immediately widened in awe as I spotted Asher being constantly pounded by a beast. I couldn't see the beast's face as his back was turned to me and unrecognizable but I could tell it wasn't just a wolf but a lycan due to the way he shifted"Alaric!" I gasped when I saw a hint of his glowing golden eyes and my body immediately shook. He had found us! I was partially expecting him to find us but not so soon, and I was sure he wouldn't
"Jeez!" I screamed at the sight in front of me, a tall man was standing right beside my bed with his hands tucked in his back pants. His face held no emotions as the familiar emerald eyes poked my skin. "You startled me" I protested with my hands on my chest as my heart raced fast. "You're awake" he said, not minding what I had said earlier on. "Meet me in my room immediately " he ordered after sucking his teeth then he walked out of the room as my brows cringed in confusion at his attitude. I massaged my temples, trying to relieve myself of the throbbing ache I was feeling in there before the memories from last night flashed through my mind and I bur
"I was referring to the food Lenora!" He sighed and I suddenly felt a wave of embarrassment rushing through my veins as my face flushed in humiliation."Oh that, I'm good, thanks" I stuttered as I rapidly blinked my eyes In order to avoid eye contact but I could still see the smug smile on his face."If you say so, I'm full so just take it back to the kitchen, it'll probably be fed to some raccoons" he ordered and I found myself staring at him with my eyes wide opened in awe.Was I some kind of his servant that he could just order around, besides if he wanted a maid in here all he had to do was to make a simple call."Why can't you just call for the mai
"And you think he would fulfill his part of the promise to you?" He asked, feeling irritated."I guess so, he left you alone immediately so I guess he would never lay a finger on you" I said and bit my lips when I realized I sounded like I was defending Alaric."Of course!" He scoffed before angrily storming out of the room and I sighed. I hated this type of relationship between us and I just want things to be right, I wish things were to be right.I was sincerely tired of the constant back and forth that always happened between us, there was never a day with a fight and what bothers me most was knowing full well that he had headed towards Tala's room.I tried to pretend it
