Chapter 103: Into that darkness
Casaio sent back Dominick and Katelyn while he walked into the room. He found Gabriel sitting on the chair, staring blankly at Amelie.
"Skye said Amelie was fine," Casaio said.
"Why didn’t you let me kill Alex that day?" Gabriel tilted his head to look at his eldest brother. "If I had ended him that day, all of this wouldn’t have happened."
Casaio held the infuriated gaze of his brother before tucking his hands into the pockets of his trousers.
"Why do you think killing someone is the answer to everything?" Casaio questioned him.
"Ending the problem is the solution," Gabriel replied. "You won’t understand what it feels to be loved. Unlike me, you got everything Casaio. I only have Amelie and her pup, who love me. In their presence, I feel that I belong somewhere too," he asserted.
Casaio brought his hand to his head. "I apologize for stopping you that day," he said and walked to the bed. He looked at Amelie before continuing, "How did Alex know where Amelie was in the day?" he asked in confusion.
"Jodie joined hands with him. And do you know who told Jodie everything about Amelie?" Gabriel’s voice again rose before answered himself, "Katelyn. My own sister invited my ex for a lunch and introduced my mate to her. That’s why I don’t trust any of you. My own family wants bad for me."
Casaio shook his head. "That’s not true. Katelyn must have made mistake. Let’s not argue further." He didn’t wish to turn the wardroom into a battleground by infuriating Gabriel. He then excused himself and turned around.
"You should go home," Gabriel said.
"Let me do my brotherly duties," Casaio asserted before walking away. As he closed the door behind him, he pinched the skin between his brows and went ahead.
