Chapter 5

Adara's POV … 

I hardly believed that he could treat me that way, dragging me out like a slave. “Why should he look for me when he knows that he doesn't want to see me? Why should he have brought me back to his chamber in the first place?” I thought to myself and wondered why.  I hardly assumed myself being treated that way. I felt so depressed and lost, the only thought that came to my mind at that moment was escaping from this mysterious nightmare. 

“Please take her out of my chamber and lock her back in the guest room, she must pay for this!” This verse couldn't stop ringing in my mind, and I feel furious whenever it pops up in my mind, and hot tears run down as I think of it. 

I ended up locked in a room, a very beautiful room, alone in thoughts. I felt furious but I'm so powerless to portray my anger, at least I don't belong here, and who am I to decide my fate? 

The other part of his statement that provoked me more was. “What do you mean about feeling it? How could you feel my heart, are you a witch or something”. This quote of his sounds annoying to me, and it makes me doubt my feelings. I couldn't stop thinking about this until I found myself in the outer world, in my dream. 

I found myself being chased and surrounded by a group of assassins, I felt so scared and kept running until I got to an edge of no way. I turned back to strike back, but the assassins were more powerful than I was, and they were countless. Suddenly, I heard a powerful voice screaming from a close distance, his voice echoed, and the assassin began to run. I felt relief and my fears were gone for that moment. Unexpectedly, a man appeared from behind and raised his hand to stab me. I quickly woke up immediately from the terrible dream and shouted. 

“Help…. … “ I shouted as I woke up from the terrible dream. Immediately, I stood up from the bed I lay on, then stayed close to the door to have a conversation with the omega standing outside my room. The room looked so tidy and beautiful with ancient pictures and status. Some parts of the room were also decorated with customs and beautiful flowers. I stayed close to the door and called the omega. 

“Hey please May I have a few minutes with you?” I asked politely. 

“ Yes, how may I help you?” He responded. 

“Please I need to meet with the alpha,” I asked, hopefully to get positive feedback. 

“The Alpha, why would you meet the Alpha?” he responded.

I felt a bit ashamed of his response, but I was left with no choice but to be neutral and politely speak to him. “Why would he want to know why I wanted to meet the alpha? Is he the alpha?” I asked myself confusingly, then responded. “I need to meet with him, just tell him that” I replied thoughtfully. Immediately he left for the alpha and I waited for his return. Not quite long, he came back to me with good news as he opened the door and let me out of the guest room. 

I quickly rushed as fast as I could to his office and entered his office without knocking and asked immediately, without hesitating, why he rejected me. I need to know his final say, I must know his true feelings, I have to know how far I had to go to know who truly is my mate and go on avenging my parent's death. I couldn't help but ask. 

“Why do you reject me? Am I not your mate?” I asked emotionally, growing in temper. I saw him pause for that moment, and he uttered no word, I felt more tempered, and I didn't know what else to do. 

“Why do you reject me?” I asked again, so tired and frustrated, and then he responded grandly. He was thoughtful for a moment, then he said solemnly. 

“I had to, I had no choice,” said the alpha. 

I felt furious and tired of hearing that always. 

“Just tell me why, please, I had to know, I had to know why I don't deserve to be your mate, maybe because I'm a stranger or perhaps because I'm not worthy to be your queen, or you couldn't feel me at all, indeed there should be a reason, and I'll be pleased to know why,” I asked confusingly. 

The alpha stood up from where he was seated and came closer to me, he touched my solder then looked into my eyes. 

“I'm sorry it wasn't my choice to make, but… …. .” Said the alpha. I felt more confused and became more annoyed.

“But what," I asked angrily. 

His eyes turned red, but nothing came out of his mouth. I felt that something was wrong somewhere but no one to tell but him, so I had to let him talk. 

“But what ?” I asked again, waiting for a response, I stayed close to him and stared at each other's faces. Our eyes were set at the same range and I could read his heart. But instead of saying something, he remains silent and continues staring at me. I couldn't hold it anymore, and I broke down into tears. 

“But why, why do you have to reject me?” I asked again emotionally. 

“I have to reject you because you're too beautiful, and I can't handle beautiful girls” He responded jokingly. 

My heart broke, and I became more emotional hearing that from him. I started hitting him on his chest to portray my anger, but that wasn't enough to show how angry I was. 

Instead of comforting me, he looked into my eyes emotionally and turned back at me. He left his office immediately and left me standing. I remain standing and watch him leave as he works away.
