Chapter 59
es met again. He looked
He didn’t say anything and was so silent that I had to look up to see what he was doing, and our eyesi away and took a deep breath.
“Do you mind explaining to me what happened? Like, why are you here, locked up? What crime did you commit?” He asked with a calm voire.”
“Nothing. The only wrong thing I did was trust Diana. But I don’t have anyone else to blame but myself because it was my greed that brought this upon me.”
“What greed? I don’t know in what context, but in no way do you deserve this. You shouldn’t be locked up like a prisoner. How long have you been here?” He asked, sitting on the bed close to me.
“First of all, how were you able to enter here? I thought nobody was allowed? Wait, I hadn’t even asked you how you unlocked the door without Diana’s knowledge. Do you have a magic trick?
He laughed and brought out two thin irons from his pocket. “I used these. So you know I can help you out of here.” He smiled, but I frowned in return,
“Why? It’s not as if I don’t want to leave, but I’m scared. I’m not sure we will make it. It’s so damn risky, and I can’t understand why you would want to take such a risk for a stranger like me. We will both be out to death, or I will still be spared while you get slain, which will be so stupid of you. Don’t waste your life for me.” I shunned him, and he shrugged, his eyes looking down to the ground.
“I have made up my mind. It is my first time seeing you, and I don’t even need any other reason to save you. I had been restless about you, seeing the maids bring food to you, and the door locked. I stood at a corner one time and heard your scream when they would be leaving and locking the door. It is clear you are dying slowly inside here. I can’t allow that.”
“So you plan to take me out of here? How will you do that, and what will be your fate because it’s stupid to save me and die? I can’t even allow you to do that.
“None of us will die. Let’s take this risk and leave this place. We can go to your pack and start a new life. I had been setting plans on how to run away from this pack after the arrival of Diana, who is bent on destroying everyone. We can utilize the plan together and escape.” He smiled.
“So why are you doing that? Do you love me? Do I still look like a woman any man can look at and fall in love with? Is there any difference between me and a beggar or even a mad woman?” I giggled sadly, scanning the face of this handsome man.
His smile was so sweet and contagious. He held my hand, rubbing it softly.
“You are pretty. So beautiful that I can’t get you out of my head. For real, I won’t rest till I give you the life you want and make you feel what true love is all about. He cooed and pecked my lips, then stood to his feet.
“I will have to leave now. It’s almost time for you to be served your meal. I don’t want to be caught here. Just stay strong and calm with a lot of hope, because I am here. I am here, and I will not stop till I save you from all this mess. I don’t care about your crime or your past. All I want is your happiness.” He spoke with so much love, exuding his voice,
The way his eyes twinkled with passionate emotions was everything I loved. I was staring at him and was so sure this was the man I would love to be with. One who cares, one who wants nothing but my happiness, and not one for whom I have to use a love charm or fake bond scent to get attention.
He came looking for me. I was on my own, and fate attracted him to me, and here he is confessing his love without having to make any effort. I had a huge smile on my face as I nodded at what he said. He stood for some minutes before leaving, and as he got to the door, he turned back at me.
“Stay strong. Don’t fall sick or think of dying, because there is still hope. I promise you, I won’t let you continue like this.” He said that with a reassuring smile before walking out.
The moment he stepped out, everywhere felt blank, lonely, and harsh. The bare walls were staring back at me taintingly, making me feel the heaviness of my heart even more.

He left, and I felt so lonely, like something very important had been snatched away from me. It hurts to be locked up here. It hurts that I had turned from a girl respected for her close relationship with the Lycan king son into a prisoner in a strange men’s land, treated like a bullshit.
It was when he left that I realized how much I wanted him around me. For many months, I hadn’t talked to anyone. Nobody has interacted with me, not to mention smiling and giving me hope that were crushed long ago.
A huge smile crept up my face as I remembered all he told me. He actually promised to take me away from here and wants to spend his life with me in my pack. Although he doesn’t know I am not a werewolf but a Lycan..
Imagining us together really made my heart warm. I hugged myself, feeling joy wave through my life like a storm. It was so overwhelming that I felt like my heart was thumping for him.
The door creaked in a few minutes, and this time it wasn’t him, even when I was actually expecting to see him again. Looking up to see it was Diana, and the maid who has my food walking in ruined my mood and snatched away every single happiness in me.
I sighed sadly, looking to the ground, not wanting to see the face of this witch, who had been a devil in my life.
“You looked happy when I walked in. That’s unlike you. What happened? Or who came in here?” She asked with a tone full of evil. So annoying to my ears.
“I’m trying to make myself happy with anything. I won’t die of dejection and loneliness as you wish.” I hissed, and he laughed.
“You are funny. I don’t want you to die because you are more important to me than getting that foolish boy Stan. My men had confirmed that he wasn’t dead; somehow Selene didn’t kill him. I am sure she wants to use him as a tool to get me, not knowing I already have a plan for that.” She chuckled.
“You will crumble. You will fail, and you won’t even see a second chance to right your wrong. I promise you.” My voice was breaking in and out as I snorted at her. She scoffed and walked closer, peering into my face.
“If I crumble or not. If I fail or not, you won’t know because you won’t even be alive to see where it all goes. Once your stupid brother falls into the trap trying to get you with my trace, I’ll slaughter the both of you. Don’t even think of the future because you are just a dead woman living.”
