Survive As The Brute's Wife

"You’ve turned pathetic, Arimelda," Iorhael said with disappointment. "Do you even know the spell I put in this bowl?"

Alexandra let out a sigh. Her confidence has gone to the bottom after knowing the truth surrounding her. She felt hopeless and abandoned. And the patronizing tone Iorhael used on her didn’t help.

Could she get angry at him for looking down at her? No! All her life, she never cared to know what others around her are doing. She always tried to be of help to others and didn’t bother with what was done to her.

And haven’t she taught lessons now? She cannot trust anyone. Not even her family or even herself!

"It’s the energizing spell and the endurance spell," Alexandra answered. She was desperate, but she is still thinking.

"Hmm..." Iorhael exhaled. "I thought you weren’t paying attention because I mentioned your husband. You always forget everything around you when you are concentrating on your beloved. You should learn to be aware of your surroundings, Arimelda. You no longer have the advantages of a demigod. You’ve chosen the life of a human."

"Yes, I know," Alexandra smiled. She was happy Iorhael’s seemingly patronizing words came out of his care for her. And she didn’t fail to notice the subtle way he tried to change her mind about it.

And one thing was odd for her. Everyone thinks of her as a human. She does feel the change in her. But why was she shown that other planet filled with humans who needed help? Was she supposed to live among them and die as one of them?

But before that, she needs to handle Inanis and settle Maximus’ issue. She cannot kill him for whatever reason. She would die before that.

"You’ll have to kill him to save him."

Iorhael’s gentle voice fell like a bolt of lightning on her head.

"What?" she asked, almost jumping down from the bed.
