"Did you hear it right? If Mr. Du has the guns, then they both knew about it. However, who killed Mr. Fu?" Diane asked as she thought deeply while walking around this room. We are here at my place right now inside the Moon Subdue Palace, we were talking about what Asilla told me. I sighed and shrugged my shoulders, I also don't know about it yet."That's what she exactly told me, she once saw some of it so she can visualize whether it's a gun or not. On the other hand, I don't have a lead on who killed his brother yet." I replied.She stopped walking as her eyes narrowed. "What about we go to him right now and scare him to death? That man can be easily killed, you know, he is old." I chuckled a bit because of what she said. She really likes doing things brutally, that's why I need to look after her. She might get into trouble because of her temper. "We can't do that, or else we will be putting ourselves into something we couldn't escape easily, we need more evidence to get him as th
I still feel embarrassed, thinking of a way to face him again. I messed up my hair as I threw my body on the bed, I stomped my foot because of the shame I was feeling, and took the pillow to bury my face after that. "What should I do?" I asked myself. I can imagine how I look while sleeping. Well, it's not the first time he saw me in that state, but I am embarrassed by the fact that he is not aware I was in his room. He might find me suspicious because of it. I am still not done with the problem I am facing in the eyes of the people inside the pack and yet I did this crazy thing right now. How come I slept in his room?"Argh!" I shouted under the pillow to release my emotion.I bit my lips and frowned, I need to get up now and tell him my mistake. I blew the air I was holding and tucked the hair in front of my face behind my ears.I was thinking what to say when suddenly I heard a knock on the door. "Ms. Analisse?" Someone behind it called me."Yes?" I asked as I opened the door, ther
What favor is he asking for?"What is it, Alpha Zidian?" I asked, confused of what he's going to tell me.The smile on his face faded away, there's a hint of doubt in my chest that I could feel right now."I want you to stay by my nephew's side 24/7." My eyes widened, is he referring to Sebastian? There's no way I can stay that long by his side everyday, it will be every second of my life."W-Why?" I asked, stuttering.He sighed and looked at me apologetically. "I know you have a hint about his disease, don't you?" When I thought of it, I was confused at first.Then I remembered our first meeting. I know that his health isn't well, but I didn't know it was really a disease. "Can you tell me about it, Alpha?" I asked him, the most polite way I can.He nodded his head. "It's a rare disease, Healers Pier can't find the cure. He trusts you, I know. He sees something in you that can be trusted, so I trust his choice too. I would be at ease if I would find someone other than Diane who coul
I was still standing right where he left me, wondering what had just happened. Is he drunk? Because he seems out of his character just now. He flew away after doing that, and he did not even throw a glance nor speak a word. He just left me here alone. "What's his problem?" I asked myself, frowning. I sighed and decided to go back to the Moon Subdue Palace."You're back." The person who told me to meet Sebastian saw me again as I went inside. She has been cleaning the way. "Yes, thank you." I told her.She gave me a smile and nodded her head. Of all the servants out there, I think she's the only one who speaks to me casually, not afraid of the news about me. "Are you okay? You are kinda pale." She asked me, and I unconsciously touched my face after hearing it from her."Am I?" I asked. I am not feeling anything strange though, but she says I look pale right now so maybe that's what she can see. "Yes. Have you eaten this day? Maybe you just forgot, you don't look sick." She reminds m
"I am not imagining anything, what's your problem?" I whispered, shifting my gaze to the other side. I will just wait for Diane to come back but it's been some minute and she's still there, what is she doing inside?I sighed and went down on my knees, trying to look at the small hole again. I need to see what's going on. I peep in but frown when I haven't seen her. "Where are you?" I asked. "What is it?" I almost shouted in shock when I suddenly heard Sebastian ask right beside my ears. My heart beats so fast because of what he did, I feel like I am going to have a heart attack. I did not realize that he was already beside me."What are you doing?!" I asked, keeping my voice low. I frowned as I looked at him but he just stared at me innocently. I rolled my eyes and continued my search. "I can't see her." I told him.His face became serious and contacted her through their mind connection, but then he opened his eyes and shook his head."She did not respond?" I asked. That's the only
"Speak according to the will of your heart." I was so confused at how they speak, it's not the usual tone we use in everyday life. This Xilan tribe seems to live far from how we live at this time. I can't also understand what they mean."This woman endures hardships, the heart will be taken. The soul must be free." Though I couldn't understand what they were saying, I tried to smile.The moment I stared with their eyes, I found something mesmerizing. Their eyes were blue and white, it seemed like I was looking at the sky above the brightest light. All of them have the same eyes. Their skin tone was brown, and it matched their clothes. They are wearing what most tribes wear, and have some arrow and bow, spears, and anything that can be found in the wild as a weapon. They also have the same white triple line in their left cheeks."I am not an enemy." I tried telling them slowly so they could understand me.One of them, a woman whose hair was shoulder length, stepped forward. I looked at
"Oh freaking ancestors! It's still in my mind!" I almost jumped off the chair when Diane shouted out of nowhere. We are now inside the Moon Subdue Palace, staying at the playing room here. Diane told me that this used to be their training ground when they were young to stabilize their minds through playing mind games."What are you thinking?" I asked as I looked at her, she scared the hell out of me. It's so quiet but she kept on shouting."Argh! Those freaking ghosts!" She punched the wall while saying that, stomping her feet on the ground out of frustration. I never thought that the brave Diane I knew was scared of ghosts. It's so funny. I chuckled so she glared at me. "What are you laughing at?" I asked.I shrugged my shoulders, "I was just amazed that you are actually scared of ghosts." I told her, trying to suppress my laugh. She gritted her teeth but then looked away. Sebastian kept on reading a book, but here we are making some disturbing noise around him. "Psh, I am not. Th
I woke up feeling so tired, my body aches a little because of what I did last night. I haven't prepared my physical and even my mental strength for that fight, but still I tried to test Nicolas. After that fight, we finally bid our goodbye to each other since he still has some business to do and I need to catch some rest. But also because of it, I found myself sleeping peacefully. I looked at the window as the sun rays hit my face, I closed my eyes and yawned. I still want to sleep more. I don't know if Diane would have some schedule for us today, however, I am still wishing not to have something to do now. I don't want to be at his side again, I don't even want to see him just today. I think I am not doing the Alpha's request well. I will just say my deepest apologies when I get the chance to talk to him. "It will be a new freaking day for me." I whispered to myself before I laid down on the bed once for a moment and closed my eyes to get some more sleep but I can't anymore, once I
