Chapter 13

“What? To the human world?!” A frown came into my father’s face when he heard my plan to leave his territory.

No one knows the true reason behind it, why I suddenly needed to go far away from here.

Not here, but from the werewolf world, I just want to be human for once, without this mate thing.

Waking up has always been a struggle for me because after that night, nightmare after nightmare makes me hate sleeping so usually I only sleep for only 2 or 3 hours. Reading and studying is my way to forget the ache in my heart.

I work two different part time jobs in the cafe and library to make myself tired, everything I do to forget him, and it works… for the whole time in the human world never I have time or energy to think about him or my heart break.

I study and work like a robot, I have friends but am afraid to get too close to them because they’re human.

Loneliness is my best friend at that time and I embrace it without complaining.

Knock.. Knock…

A knock on the door woke me up from my dream.

No, not a dream but a memory…

When I opened my eyes I noticed the connecting door was open, I just remembered I closed it yesterday.

Is it him?

Did he open it?

“Your stuff has arrived, my queen” Alexa query snapped me

from my mind and I turned my head to see her bring two large boxes in her hands like it’s light even though I know I must be heavy.

Slowly I get up from my bed and walk to where she put the boxes.

“What is it?” I asked.

She smiles and starts to open it at the same time El walks into my room with breakfast in her hands.

“Your father told us that you haven’t unpack your clothes, so he sent it all and I already put it in the dressing room” I raise an eyebrow when I hear her, dressing room?

“I have my own dressing room?”

She smile and nodded “On your left beside the bathroom”

Curiously I walked to the room only to be shocked. I remember he mentioned about preparing my clothes in my room but never thought about this… much?

3 large wardrobes up to the ceiling, 4 glass cabinets filled with shoes and luxury bags that I’m sure the price is not arbitrary, then I walked to the glass table in the middle which turned out to contain watches and a little jewelry inside.

What is this?

“The king wanted the best for you” Alexa informed with a smile as she saw my shocked expression “He has been

preparing this since 5 years ago, my queen” She added and made me even more shocked.

“Five years ago?!” I exclaimed in shock and the woman in front of me nodded in response.

Why?

Why did he reject me 5 years ago if he had prepared everything for me, why pretend to reject me but act differently?

‘I should have tightened my guard since announcing you as my mate’ I remember he said this…

‘And there was Alexa and El who were supposed to take care of you, but we all failed to protect you’

That’s what he said, so there must be a reason….

Does it involve his enemy?

I know a rumor said he has lived for 500 years, I need to know the truth, no one could live that long, right?

And without a mate?

There must be something, a secret….

500 years alone without someone? my 5 years of loneliness is nothing compared to him then…

I have to find out…

“Alexa” I called her, who looked up toward my direction “Does he have a library here?” Alexa looked confused for a moment and I quickly changed my question “Sorry.. I mean does the king have a library here?”

“Oh, yes, the best one beside his office” She answered.

D*mn!! Beside his office.

Can I read everything about him there secretly?! with the man himself in his office?

I have to try it if I want an answer, because nothing about werewolf history can be found on the internet. Afraid if humans could read it too so we choose to use the old way, reading books.

“Do I need permission to use the library?” I need to know whether I can use it anytime I like and I smile when I see Alexa shook her head

In between her chuckles “The kind already make sure you could do anything you like in his territory, no one could forbid unless himself” I blink several times when I hear it.

Wow…

Okay then…

There must be something that makes him do the things he did to me 5 years ago because he does different things now. “Let’s see what my father brings before I use the library” I told her who nodding obediently and we walked together to the boxes in the room.

When Alexa informed me that the king’s schedule is tight for this week, I was surprised to see him in the library when I arrived.

“They said you have an important guest and meeting for the whole week” I said quickly but he just gave me a small smile while walking closer toward me.

“I’m glad you won’t hide in your room anymore” I just rolled my eyes when I heard his words and shockingly he chuckled which made me widened my eyes in surprise.

I notice how Alexa and El also look surprised before they try to hide it.

Okay, seems like he never laughs toward others, noted.

A touch on my cheek snapped me from my mind and I met his intense gaze toward me.

“I’ll make it quick so I can accompany you, we have to catch up our date” I don’t know how to respond so I just nod my head as an answer, I saw how hesitant he is before he turns and walks toward the next door.

“You said the guests arrived at 9AM?” I asked Alexa without

turning my gaze from the door.

“Yes, my queen, they have started the meeting since morning” Was her confirmation and I raised my hand to watch it’s 11 O’clock.

Hmm…

I was just starting to look around for the book I wanted when I glanced over and saw the waiter bringing in a trolley filled with food and drinks.

“From the king” I heard the waiter inform Alexa who

immediately tasted one by one the food and drinks provided, yes, since the incident of giving poison to me, Alexa and El took turns to taste the food and drinks given to me as a preventive effort so that the previous bad incident did not happen again.

I grabbed one of the older looking books in the corner hidden from the other, the title nothing like I’d ever seen or heard of before, ‘The Descent of the Lords’ grabbing it out of its place on the shelf I made my way carefully to the armchair along with 5 other huge books, El who notice me bringing the books, quickly walk toward me and grab the books from my hands.

“Thank you” I breathe with a smile and she nods her head in acknowledgement.

Settling down I place the last book on my lap but before I could open in, Alexa shove a cup of tea with a bread toward me “Eat before you lost into other world” I can’t help but chuckle in amusement, she speak like she know how I usually lost myself when I’m reading.

Wait a minute…

“Alexa, you said the king started preparing everything for me 5 years ago❞ I started and saw she raise an eyebrow “Did you.. Have you started becoming my guards since then?” I voiced my suspicions and was wide-eyed with shock when I saw her nodding.

“He has to make sure nothing happens to you while you’re in the human world” She stated and I found other things that surprised me about him.

I sigh heavily, having lost my focus and the book because finding another truth about the man who rejected me 5 years ago only to know he acts differently.

I have to find the truth…
