Chapter 52: ; Getting Caught

Hey, Matthew, it's Eunice here... Could you please open the door? We should talk." In spite of Eunice's best efforts, she was unable to open the door because it was locked, which presented a conundrum. Because Matthew never locks his room, she had a sneaking suspicion that something was up. After that, Eunice gives a second knock. She continued moving forward until someone opened the door.

While this was going on inside the room, Cheska quickly stood up and dressed herself in the bare clothes she had brought with her. whereas the gaze that was being directed towards Matthew was one that was loaded with guilt.

But Matthew paid it no attention. Before going to open the door, he quickly pulled his pants over his head. "What do you want?" Matthew closed the door as soon as he exited the room, preventing Eunice from gaining access to the space she had just left.

"Let's go inside," Eunice suggested, and as she attempted to open the door, Matthew immediately blocked it with his naked body. Eunice then suggested that they go inside together.

"I'm worn out, and I wanted to take a nap... If what you have to say is not important, then let's discuss this some other time. Matthew remarked while maintaining a solemn expression.

Eunice, recognizing how serious and uninterested he appears to be, did not coerce himself into going in. "Each and every pack is becoming furious... They wanted you to quit the game before it continued.

This observation is only partially accurate. The alphas were furious; their words came out as fists, and they pounded against him in an attempt to get him to stop. However, their desire was not sufficient to officially request that Matthew withdraw from the match.

"Is that what you're getting at? You don't need to get involved in what I'm doing, Eunice. I don't need anyone else to help me... And there is no one who can stop me," Matthew said confidently. He draws extra attention to his final word in an effort to convince Eunice of the gravity of his situation.

"But I don't understand! You designed this game to help the Thunder Pack, didn't you? And on top of all that, I'm going to ask you to be my wife!"

"Marry you? And for what reason would I want to marry you? You're not even my girlfriend!"

"But you swear to my father!" You'll be 22 next month, and if you can't find a mate before then, you'll marry, as you promised my father."

You are aware that I always keep my promises. Because of this, I am able to remember everything that I promised. If I don't find the one I'm supposed to be with before I turn 22, I'm going to get married to you... But I did! Therefore, the agreement that we made is null and void.

"Lie! That is not the case!" In response, Eunice closed her fist into a fist clencher. "Ever since we arrived in your city, you've been working hard to fulfill your responsibilities. You haven't had a conversation with any other girl besides Cheska and I, have you?

"We need to put a stop to this... You have nothing to do with my agreement with your father." Explaining himself is something that Matthew despises doing, especially to other people.

After stating his wishes, Matthew said, "I will talk to your father and clear things out, so go back to your room." But Eunice is not one to give up without a fight. She was curious to see if her suspicions were accurate, so as soon as the door was unlocked, she rushed inside.

"What do you think you're doing?" is a rhetorical question. Matthew let out a roar. His attention is focused on Cheska, but to his astonishment, the woman cannot be located anywhere.

"I know you better than you know yourself, Matthew. Because of this, I am convinced that something cannot be kept a secret! Eunice shrieked, and then she rushed around the room looking at everything in a hurry.

"If you know me that well, then you are aware that I despise it when people invade my personal space," he said. Matthew didn't bother to wait for Eunice to respond to his question. He appeared to be in a solemn mood as he opened the door. "I need you to leave my room immediately before I forget that you are a guest here."

This is the very first time that Eunice has experienced Matthew addressing her in such a manner. She has noticed that when his patient is tired, he begins to speak in this manner.

"Fine! However, we are not going to wrap up this discussion right here! I will not put any stock in what you have to say until you can produce the partner you claim to be your mate. Following the completion of her speech, Eunice exited the room.

Matthew begins his search for Cheska as soon as the door has been shut. He checks each and every part of the room, but the individual has already returned home.

He muttered, "Oh my... You escape for me again," as he reached for his phone to make a call.

"KI-RING... KRING..."

Cheska grinned to herself in the other room as she walked over to the phone and pressed the button to answer the call.

"What do you want?" While Cheska was supine in her bed, she posed the question.

"I didn't let you leave."

"So?"  Cheska responded in a playful manner.

Leila was able to eavesdrop on the conversation between the two people as she was walking out of the room and through the crowd. She doesn't feel jealous of Eunice; rather, she feels sorry for her.

"There's no reason for you to go... It would be ideal if Eunice were to catch you while you were in my room... At the very least, I won't get tired of explaining who my enigmatic mate is..." Cheska cracked a grin despite the fact that she was unable to hear Matthew sigh.

"Take a bath in cold water before you go to sleep..." Cheska was aware of the growl that was coming from the other line. Her suggestion was exactly what was required.

"You are aware that I will seek vengeance for this, aren't you? Prepare to be indicted as quickly as possible, because I intend to make that happen as soon as possible.

Cheska could hear the sound of water slapping against the shower wall. It indicates that Matthew is currently taking a bath. "Do whatever you want... You should know by now that I'm not afraid of anything." She terminated the call once she had finished giving her response.

While this is going on, Eunice can be seen pacing back and forth inside her room as she thinks.

"I am aware that Cheska is currently in his room... Matthew's bed was covered in her scent, and since I can still smell it, I know I'm not mistaken. I can't have them mingling with each other! I can't allow my strategy to go to waste! After giving it some thought for a few moments, Eunice hastily walked out of her room and onto her porch.

While Eunice was in the city, Luna Maurice lent her a car, and she was able to get it started thanks to Eunice. She reached into the bag for her cell phone and dialed a number while she was driving.

"Hello, and where are you?"

"..."  

"Are you able to make it out to the meeting?" Eunice was icily dismissive in her remarks. After hanging up, she pressed the accelerator pedal to increase her speed and continued driving.

"I have to do everything in my power to make my dream come true! Matthew is going to become my father's successor after we get married. He is the one and only person who can keep the Shadow Pack at the top of the food chain! Eunice mumbled something to herself under her breath while gritting her teeth.
