Chapter 22Elena's POVI felt weird Having to use the restroom while he was there but the pain I was feeling didn't let my mind void such shy emotions. He actually saved me.He actually did care about me. I couldn't possibly hurt someone like this. All this was happening quite too fast for me as I didn't know what to do and how to go about it. He went out.Maybe I should try to stand up, but I would fall. I already knew that so I called out, “Alpha Damon” I said and he opened the door. He carried me back to my bed. “It’s weird calling me alpha Damon, just call me Damon” he said and I nodded. I was tired of calling him alpha anyways.He just stayed beside me holding my hand. Hurting him would be like killing someone to me, he was genuine and sincere towards me and I couldn’t do it. I couldn’t hurt him, I’d just go back to Alpha Lucien and let him kill be and spare my parents.The more I thought, I felt a pang of pain in my head. And my stitches, it needs to heal fast to prepare myself

Chapter 24Elena took the small square balls and said they were called dice and had spots on each side indicating how many times you had to move from the ‘begin’ box.“Where is the jail,fees?” She asked herself and turned the board over and over. “This isn’t monopoly, it’s moply” she said and laughed. I stood up again to the receptionist and told her to bring the snakes and ladder board to our room since that was another name which sounded weird. She came in and laid it on the table, “dismissed” I said and she left, giving a small bow.This game also had dice but it looked easier, “so the number the dices land on are added together to move your position with the checkers” she said and paused and I looked at her, “do you you understand?” She asked me and I nodded.“Then if you roll the dice then added the numbers and you land on the snakes head, you move down the where the tail is in a box” she said and pointed to the head and slid down the the tail. “Do you understand?” She asked and

Chapter 26Damon's POVAsher got the message and walked into the kitchen and after some minutes Asher came out and gave me a gentle nod. Soon after the cook came out.Mom was happy as soon as the cook came in."Don't worry ma'am just pass on instructions on what you want us to prepare today and we make sure it is available, you don't need to stress yourself ma'am." The cook said holding a note in his hands to be able to jot down our orders."It's no bother at least let me help you in the kitchen after all Elena Just got back." Mom said persisting in taking part in the cooking process but truth being said I didn't want her taking part."No Mom, it's his job and he would have a lot of helping hands. All you need to do now is to rest and take care of yourself." I said finally stopping her from taking part."I want to have a little walk with you around if you don't mind." Elena spoke out in a soft and gentle voice; it was obvious she was tired."Are you sure? If you are tired you are free

Chapter 28Damon's POVWhatever I had Lingering around my heart, hatred definitely surpassed it.I hated him than anything and his face alone made me boil in anger. I had began to suppress my anger towwars him and it's only because of Asher. Nothing else was stopping me from killing him a long time ago.But Asher always found a way to manipulate my decisions to make sure i didn't take and under a bad temper because I would always end up making a wrong decision.I was so angry whenever I saw the look on their faces especially Lucas and how he didn't even feel he had ever wronged me. Well he would be locked here until he is ready to realize that mistake.At least Kiara felt a little remorse through her words right from the start when she was being dragged into here and locked into chains. I wouldn't be able to withstand her begging because she looked pale as she cried her eyes out but I didn't care about that, what matters was that she broke my trust and as if that wasn't enough wanted

Chapter 30Killing him was very easy but i chose not to. Some would consider me having a soft side for him but I had my reasons for not killing him. If he kept on behaving the way he did in the cells I just hope I would be able to control myself not to kill him right then and there. I thought for a while but felt sleepy since I felt weak, I drifted off to sleep and didn’t even realize it.Next morning….I woke up the next day feeling better than I did yesterday. It wasn’t early because it was half past eight. I stood up to take a bath and freshen up since I was just in my shorts.The warm water poured on my face and my whole body. I bathed myself but I didn’t hit the dagger, I didn’t want any pain that would later affect my stability and composure. If I felt pain in front of the people, I would be seen as weak and they would wonder why I was in pain since I wasn’t sick. Elena was the only one who could see the dagger.‘You still love her especially since she’s your mate’ I remembered
