Call me Alpha

Chapter 57: Arrival of the King (Part One)

Aiden’s POV

*Slap!*

I don’t mind the sting I felt on my face but Ashira’s slap also struck my heart with an intolerable pain. I was stunned and unable to move from where I stood, even my face won’t tilt back and my eyes has feared seeing her current expression.

“You can’t fool me!”

Even her voice has a hint of pain in it that my chest felt heavy and clenched. I tried talking to her about the truth again today. She has rested and slept outdoors last night and I let her be, trying not to distract her.

I watched her sleep from far.

I waited for her to wake up, asked someone to bring her some food. She ate. A little. But she was still dozing off and now she is crying. Mad, angered, lonely, and hurt. That is all I could smell from her.

From her scent, I know she does not feel anything for me.

“You are not my mate. My mate is dead! You killed him!”

I hissed and tilted my head up as I screwed my eyes shut. I listened to her low, rough sobs and tried my best to keep my mouth shut.

Truth is what I tried to tell her and now she’s like this. If I try convincing her more, she might hate me more and I don’t want to add up what she already felt about me.

“Stop trying to manipulate me! Please! Leave me and my child alone!”

I slowly turned my head to look at her.

Is this the right decision? Should I just leave her alone and let her do what she want or think what she believes? Her face is wet because of her tears. She is still too gorgeous despite her distress aura and looks.

This gorgeous person seems so far away and yet she wanted to be further.

“I can’t.” I whispered.

She turned around and screamed inwardly before facing me again.

“You are so full of yourself! Can’t you see that I hate it here? I wanna go back to my old pack, to be in the place where I had memories with Elon! I don’t want to be here, I don’t want to stay here, I don’t want to be with you!”

Every phrase she said seems like an arrow piercing through my heart, making me bleed.

“If only you didn’t kill my mate!” she cried hard and I feel like I want the ground to eat me whole. She sat on the bench and tried suppressing her cries and she looked more pitiful that way.

“Your mate feels like dying now, baby.” I whispered. I don’t know if she heard me and I think she didn’t because I didn’t hear any response from what I said. Her sobs are drowning her and I feel invisible now in front of her.

Am I not allowed to feel the pain?

I sighed.

I can’t let her go.
