Aria "you need to stop whatever feelings you think you have for that man!" alpha Draven yelled. "I won't stand back and watch you make another foolish mistake again all because you think that you are in love. your issue with Alpha Bryant started like this. you took actions without thinking, letting yourself act based on your feelings for him, look at what happened to you after that, he still betrayed you, didn't he? back then I didn't like Alpha Bryant for you, but I didn't say anything because I wanted you to be happy. now I regret it. I regret not stopping you from leaving the house to go to his pack, I regret ever letting you have a relationship with him." "Prince Zane isn't alpha Bryant. he's different. and I can't just stop myself from having feelings for him. things don't work that way, Dad." Aria argued. She was tired of the conversation she was having. "he may not be alpha Bryant, but I don't like him. just the same way I didn't like alpha Bryant years ago." 'This is stupid

Aria "I changed my mind." Prince Zane said. before Aria could ask him, 'About what.' he continued, "Maybe I should allow your father to take you away for a week, or perhaps a month?" his blind gaze turned to face her a little. "how about a year?" Aria ask annoyed. Her wolf who hardly speaks to her after her marriage with Prince Zane agrees to her idea of leaving him, but not for a year, rather forever."that's not a bad idea," Prince Zane said, looking as if he was in thought about Aria's father taking her away for a year. 'does he think that my father is going to allow him to take me away from the pack after he had gotten the chance to finally get me out of the kingdom?' Aria thought."Who knows, maybe staying away from the kingdom for a while could teach my disobedient wife to start listening to her husband." Prince Zane turned his face away from Aria, "After a while, I will get you back from your pack. What do you think?" Prince Zane asks. Aria didn't give Prince Zane a reply.

Ariaclose to two weeks had passed, King Kaida's door was still locked and Prince Zane was still in front of his father's chamber. Aria hadn't gotten the chance to see Prince Zane as much as she wanted. she had been training hard with her father, day and night, preparing for the war. Aria knew that the training she received from her father was just a beneficial excuse from his side. he was using training to create distance between her and Prince Zane. Whenever Aria wanted to see Prince Zane he always gave her a reason not to. reasons Aria couldn't argue with. One of the reasons Aria didn't like to hear from him was when he said that she was too sweaty, and she needed to bathe, when Aria finally bath, he would argue that it was too late, and make comments about her seeing him the next day. as though he wasn't going to come up with a new excuse the next day. Aria was aware of all her father's schemes. some days she let him have his way. simply because she noticed how at ease her fathe

Aria Aria was careful when she left her room, she asked Erika to distract her father so that she could escape training and see Prince Zane.as Aria went to King Kaida's chamber where she knew Prince Zane was, she stopped in her tracks, as she saw the maid, they had all been looking for. she stood in front of Prince Zane, looking completely innocent. A food tray was in her hand as though she was just an ordinary human.anyone who saw her would believe that Prince Zane made a mistake. but Prince Zane's eyes couldn't deceive him, he was blind, and he leaned more on his senses than his sight. "it is you." Prince Zane said, You are Elqenna aren't you?" He asks with certainty in his voice.Aria carefully passes the maid to Prince Zane's side. a cold shiver of fear passed through her. She felt the same way she did the first time she saw the maid. 'what is her?' Aria thought as she looked at the maid who still feigned innocence, blinking her eyes in confusion as though she didn't know wha

Aria "I'm not going to let you see my father alone." Prince Zane said with a stern voice. "if you are capable of giving him a dangerous spell there is no telling the harm you can do to him if you are allowed to see him alone." "you know that I'm not going to do any harm to your father," Elqenna said, with a conviction that Prince Zane knew the truth."I'm not sure." Prince Zane turned away from Elqenna and faced the door to King Kaida's chamber. he placed the palm of his hands on the door that was still locked. "I know nothing about you, I have no reason to trust you."Aria could sense the deception in Prince Zane's voice. he sounded like he was telling the truth. but he was putting on his fake mask again. "I'm sorry but you have to, there is nothing I can do to prove myself to you." "I would have if you didn't give my father a spell that helped him to lock himself up. I'm sure that you know, how my father is feeling on the other side of this door." 'he isn't mentioning the blood
