Chapter 53-Saving Helanie
Kaye:
After I arrived in my room, a heavy sadness settled over me. I couldn’t quite understand why, but something about this night just felt wrong. I sank into the bathtub, letting countless thoughts swirl through my mind.
"That mate bond... it has to be just something from the dream prison," I murmured to myself, trying to make sense of everything.
"Dammit!" I groaned in frustration.
Every time I closed my eyes, I recalled the words spoken by Helanie in the dream prison. Could it be?
Was she really abused?
Or was it something even worse--assault?
She had said she didn’t want to feel the same way about her body here as she did in the real world. She also mentioned some group of alphas. I sighed heavily and got out of the bathtub. Ever since I returned, I’d started seeing Helanie in a different light. I might have thought she was lying to gain sympathy... if only she was.
But she never spoke about any of this to anyone, not even a hint of abuse. I remember my brothers telling me that when she first arrived, she had been starving for days. And then there was the fact that she didn’t even want to return to her pack.
