ANNABELLA’S POV
” Don’t” I didn’t realize he was beside me, his hand wrapped around my arm and spraying tangles into my body. ” You need to rest for a while” he said in a low tone, the worry in his eyes made me frown.
” Tell me what happened, ” he asked and I bit my lip. Did I hurt myself because I saw a snake? I raised my hand to touch my forehead but he grabbed it ” It might be a little but it will heal soon ” he said and I stared at his face in shock. How was it going to heal, I didn’t even have a wolf? I bit on my bottom lip again feeling guilty for hiding it from him. But I didn’t know what he would do once he came to find out. I didn’t know anymore if keeping quiet was the best thing to do, did I want to tell him?
” Did someone do something to you?” His deep authoritative voice pulled me out of my thoughts and I stared up in his blue eyes. What? No!
” I think you are getting it wrong” I bit on my lip ” I tripped when I was trying to get away from a snake” I knew how ridiculous I sounded but it was the truth. I couldn’t have him think I was hurt on purpose.
Why would he even think like that?
” You will heal soon, I promise” his hand slipped down into mine and he pulled it up his lips to place a kiss in my palm. I couldn’t help but close my eyes to the feelings that were on her flowing in my body. I didn’t know what it was but I guess it has been there since the first day we met and it makes me feel safe around him. Weird right?
” I brought you something for dinner. ” Madeline peered through the door before stepping in with a tray. It was night already?” Easy” he grabbed my arm when I tried to sit up. I was starving, I didn’t remember eating anything during breakfast and that was because of this stupid walk I wanted to have.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
” I will take care of that ” I didn’t understand what he meant until he grabbed the tray from Madeline. My eyes widened at the thought of eating from his hand. Was he going to feed me? My gaze went to Madeline who handed the tray to him with pleasure. ” I can feed myself ” I broke my hand and not my arm. ” Stay still and open your mouth when necessary” he ordered and couldn’t mask the shock and the flush on my face. Madeline couldn’t hide her smile, she gave me a nod before leaving me in the room. I really didn’t know why he was behaving like I was some sort of a precious assert to him.
” Do you feed every girl that breaks her head?” I was curious. His action was surprising and quite opposite of him. It was weird because no one told me alpha Roman was a caring male aside from being a heartless beast. ” Stop whatever you are thinking, Princess” he warned and I pulled my bottom lip in my mouth before opening up for a full spoon. ” And I am their alpha and nothing else” he said and I wondered if he was really replying to my question.
” Ask whatever you want” as if he sensed my adventurous nature. ” Are you always this caring?” I asked and he replied no.
Okay, that I expected. ” Why are you calling me Princess?” I was a bit bothered with the new title though I loved it but there was no need telling him I liked it, right? I bit on my lip when he stared up at me with those wood blue eyes. He was excellent, handsome, beautiful, good looking and a bit scary but I wasn’t scared of him.
I realized that last night.
” Do you want to eat anything else?” He asked pushing out his tongue to wet his lips and I found myself staring at this action. And weirdly, I was intrigued and felt strange inside. He was crazily handsome, how come I was just seeing it?
” Drink” his cold voice startled me and I blinked to get back to my senses. I wasn’t sure what was coming over me but I hope it was nothing to worry about.
After gulping down half of the water I fall back on the bed with the sheet on my chest. Madeline came for the tray and I was currently laying in darking.
The light was off and the darkness wasn’t making it easy for me to sleep. Besides, I have been sleeping for who knows how long? I closed my eyes and turned it back open with a loud sigh.
If I think of it more, I didn’t think I was terrified of him like I thought I was. I was only angry with him and I guess that wasn’t the case anymore. I was more comfortable around him than I have ever been around anyone. I asked him whatever I felt like without feeling scared and surprisingly his replies were convincing.
I believe him like crazy. Maybe because his nature was far from lying.
” Having trouble sleeping?” My soul almost jumped out of my body but relaxed when I flipped the light on and saw him standing by the door. Why didn’t I hear him open the door?
” You aren’t sleeping yet? ” I bit on my bottom lip. I could hear myself speak and how ridiculous I sounded.
Where was he supposed to sleep when I was having his bed? I couldn’t stare away from him because his eyes were staring down at me like a hawk, his hands caged in the pocket of his black pants.
” Making sure you don’t hurt yourself because of a fucking snake” I could tell he was angry but I couldn’t stop the smile on my face. ” Is it that bad?” He chuckled and strode in with a glass of whatever drink I didn’t know. I laid on my side when he took the couch facing him. ” I can’t feel any pain” I finally touched the bandage around my head. ” It was probably because you have healed” he said in a low tone but I heard him.
How was that possible?
I wasn’t supposed to heal this face because I was wolf less. The wound was supposed to last longer and heal slowly. I didn’t understand what he meant.
” You know you are free, right?” He suddenly said and I felt my inside twist strangely. Our gaze meant and I didn’t know how serious it was. Was he asking me to leave his pack?
Tears pulled over my eyes and pulled my bottom lip in my mouth. ” You are free to stay and leave whenever you want” he sipped his drink, not breaking our stars. ” Are you setting me free?” He hemmed in response and I felt my heart beating rapidly in my chest.
Why?
Didn’t he want me to birth his heir anymore? Just last night he said I was important to him so what changed? Why was he letting me out of the contract, I knew my father would never return the money he took from him so what was happening?
Of course who was I kidding, how could a wolf less she wolf like me get the privilege of carrying an alpha’s heir?
He was strong and if I end up carrying his pups, they would be nothing like him. It was forbidden for someone like me to carry an alpha pup. The part where the oap would be weak was what makes it forbidden.
And I was unwealthy of the task.
