Chapter 380: An Alpha And His Responsibility

I came out here with a lie that I needed some air, instead, I came to see if the landscape of this area remained the same so that I could plan my escape. It was just as I remembered, except for a few changes, I noticed the mansion was more expanded.
Singe did the honors of following me around, this man had not taken his eyes off me the entire day, I figured he was given the duty to watch over me, just one?
Dace must have underestimated me too much but then again he could be he was the best option to watch me and he reeked of Rogue and his aura was just as overwhelming.
Not as overwhelming as the aura that just dived into the area. The hairs at the back of my neck stood up and I knew who that aura belongs to...
Dace.
I let my eyes dart and I regret it, the couple were together and I have never felt bitterness such as this, her hands locked around his strong arms, one I remember always holding and gripping tightly. He looked tired or possibly tipsy, it’s odd but I knew even alcohol could drown any man.
Even in that state, he can make any woman fall to their knees, with just a look, he was in a three-piece suit, with no tie, a habit he still has, I let my eyes linger even as they met mine, his gaze was bored and dark so I let my orbs drift away and back to observing nature, if I look more I might crumble.
I heard their footsteps and I knew they were gone which gave me relief.
I cleared my throat, gaining the attention of the man before me helping himself to a book, a man as big as this was reading a book, Singe is an interesting man.
