Chapter 192: And Your World Was Filled With Tears
[GREALOR]
Gabe was conflicted about what his father was planning. Sure, he hated what Tamiko had done and even despised Igor for taking away the one man he had fallen hopelessly in love with, but even he knew that this would seal the fate of Grealor forever.
They had their quarrels sure, but for this fate to make such a critical decision at a time when the realm was the most unstable, it is just hellish. It made no sense. So, he sought out Zakhar, his only living best friend to ask for advice.
Maybe they would find a basis there, right?
"You look terrible," Zakhar pointed out and Gabe just smiled. He had been in that state for the longest time since Tamiko had left. So much had happened in his life but none had hit him as hard as Tamiko’s choice ever had.
Maybe because Gabe had been hoping that despite everything, the mate bond was strong enough to have him repent to Tamiko for what he had done. Maybe it was the only chance he was shopping for so that things would be alright, but none of that ever worked.
And Gabriel Grealor had remained a shell of who he had once been. He rarely smiled; he rarely even spoke to the cycling members of Grealor. He was just there to do the okay thing that his father sent to him.
It was almost like Ashton was running the pack and Gabriel was just there for the formalities. But even then, that didn’t make Gabriel feel any less of an Alpha because honestly most of the time he was in his own world.
"I’ve been worse," Gabe said as he sat down beside Zakhar. They were currently in Zakhar’s office which was once Danny’s. It was the beta’s office, and with the way that things had turned out with Danny, they only had one chance then.
