Chapter 39: THE KING’S CONDITION GOT WORSE
The memories came trickling down in Zenith’s mind. At first, it was only a sad face of Dawn that he saw, the resentment and pain in her eyes haunted him before the strong feeling of remorse hit him, without him knowing what actually he had done to feel such regret.
However, as days went by and the closer he got to her, it was almost like the barrier that clouded his mind finally lifted and the memories came rushing back.
After that night, more awful memories hit him.
No one knew about this.
No one could understand his dreams.
"Zenith, I don’t think it is appropriate for you to bring me here," Dawn said, her expression worried. She glanced at the closed door.
For other people, Zenith was the king and for him to pull her into an empty room when all the people knew she was here with Zenith to have their ceremony, would create a rumor. Dawn didn’t want that.
However, Dawn didn’t understand what was in Zenith’s mind right now. He looked distraught. But then, she couldn’t look at his face with this stupid golden mask in her way.
"What happened?" Dawn’s voice softened when Zenith just stood there, staring at her. He pressed her against the door, but he didn’t do anything else, or say something to explain his actions. "Zenith, I don’t understand you." Dawn shook her head. "I can’t read your mind and if you want me to be your mate, I don’t want to deal with this confusion."
Dawn was willing to give their relationship a try, once she learned this alpha from the north was not as bad as people portrayed him. In fact, he was rather overprotective, but then, Dawn couldn’t understand his erratic behavior and his weird dreams.
She had put up with his brother’s attempt to murder her, but Zenith’s actions made it more difficult.
