Chapter 400: Everything The Alpha Desires We Give To Him
I can’t sleep. Emilia’s words ran through me like a poison in my blood but I knew she was right. Emilia never sugarcoated things even in the past. She would have told me about her family if it wasn’t about the law of coexistence years ago. She was that transparent.
Her words were a harsh truth I clearly understood, I was only ignoring it because part of me thinks that Dace is the same man I have always known but I have been lying to myself because he is not, he’s a dark Alpha with an insatiable bloodlust, getting what he wants no matter what lengths he has to go through and I was a pawn in his game.
It was laid out before me and yet I chose to remain blind, my heart keeps taking charge of my head and that damn organ still craves something I should have gotten rid of.
There was no use thinking too deeply about it because I knew this was the result of the mistake I made years ago coming back to haunt me. It’s funny how much I have tried to bury it in and yet it slaps me point blank in the face like a wet towel.
What was this? A fucking twist in fate? Is fate so against me that it would let me go through this? A fucking nightmare and facing demons I tried to cast away, a hectic torment and he didn’t even need to try, I’m always tormented, even in his presence, in this mansion, the familiar interior and exterior it’s like claw to my soul if I still had one.
"Are you lost?"
Caught off guard by the sudden voice I jumped facing who was responsible, just a random werelion.
Why am I even jumpy?
"No"
"It’s 2 a.m. and I’m not sure you should be walking the premises," he said. He’s tall and intimidating just like every werelion in this house but none of them could ever rival when it comes to Dace, he’s an ant compared to a mountain.
"Needed the air, is that against the rules?" I asked folding my arms and facing him fully, he wore a frown, almost like I was a foul smell before him.
