~KeleighI wasn’t going to gullible with them. Although a greater part of me wanted to pour the drink on both of their bodies, it took the whole of me to exercise self control and not do it.I lowered the glass immediately and held it tight, looking through the content. I looked at them both and I could see the shock in their eyes.“They made this right in front of you, didn’t they?” I questioned. With a nod that showed he wasn’t sure of where I was heading to, he nodded and arched his brows.“Can you take a sip?” I questioned and his brows arched, perhaps surprised that I had made such a request. Arnold looked just as shocked as he wondered why I had asked for something like that.“I would like you to take a sip.” I requested again and Arnold stood up before proceeding towards his brother.“Do you.... think I can hurt you? Do you think I can kill you?” Ryker questioned, sounding so hurt and heartbroken. I wished I could tell him that was not the truth but instead, I remained mute. I

~KeleighDisappointed in myself, I could not help but sit right on the floor still. I knew how bad it was for one to be let down. I tried to figure out what I wanted to say to them but there seemed to be nothing that came out of my mind. I could it string any word together.Perhaps, I should have trusted them. I should have believed there was no way they could hurt me. Maybe I should have known they cared about me and not want my downfall. Someone else was definitely behind it and was trying to cause between us and I guess it was happening.It was still strange to find out where he had been. Roman. I had not seen him since the previous day. Perhaps, the order for no one to one close to me had made him leave. Getting up and wiping off my tears, I headed out of my room, md instead to where I could possibly find him.I suddenly felt a grip on my shoulder and my eyes widened in surprise. A gazillion thoughts ran through my mind all at the same time. Arnold’s information about the maid mis

KeleighThe next couple of days were not so easy for me. The cycle repeated itself over and over again. Neither of them seemed to pay me any attention whatsoever neither did they agree to have breakfast or any meal whatsoever with me. The silence treatment they were giving me was killing me and it felt like I was beginning to lose my mind.Instead, they had been more concerned about finding the maid who had escaped and bring whoever had poisoned me. It was nice to see they really did care about me and wanted me to be safe. With an hopeful heart, I stepped out of my room that morning and headed to have breakfast. The duo had barely began to have breakfast but the moment they saw me, they stood up to leave, leaving me all by myself.I tried to speak with them but neither of them seemed to want to listen to me. Immediately, I lost my appetite and stood up instead. Roman had tried to speak to me throughout that period but he was the last person I wanted to see. He had been the main reaso

KeleighThe frown on his face was infectious and it was quick to affect me. I hated the fact that I had to have a frown on as well. I was quite sad and heartbroken but I could not do anything about it.“Why are you here? There are other important things to do.” He started, looking at his brother and my heart shattered as I lowered my head. I was certain there is nothing they had to do. He just did not want him to he anywhere near me. He wanted him away from me and it shattered my heart.“Well, I am here to see her because…. “ He started.“The pack should be your priority. Nothing else should capture your attention like the pack. The pack should b your number one priority. Remember that always.” He responded. I was about to speak when he suddenly turned to leave.Without thinking, I gripped his hands immediately. He arched his brows as he looked at me like I had done the unforgivable. Tears strode down my eyes and I felt so bad. I hoped he would take pity on me and listen to all I hav

KeleighMy sense of reasoning seemed to go off that minute as I could not think straight. Nothing seemed to be going on well. His judgement got me quite scared and I hoped it was not really what I thought.“I am very sorry, my Lord. We could not stop the poison in tine….” He halted. My heart raced so hard as I awaited my judgement. Arnold was also quite worried and even though he tried to hide it, I could see fear evident in his eyes. He held me tightly, waiting for his judgement.“But we have tried all we can to make sure it does not spread further. The Alpha has been treated. It would however taken some time for him to heal. It was a very dangerous poison that could cause his death if he had not been tended to in time. Thankfully, we have been able to treat him.” He responded and a sigh escaped my lips. I was relieved he was totally fine and would be back to function even if it was going to take time.Arnold became calmer we well. Neither of us could imagine our lives without him. It
