“Yeah… Harder… Faster… You’re so sweet,” Recalling the horrible moans of Astrid, Cassie pulls a disgusting face as she crashes on her bed, letting out a scoff. She has been trying to get it off her head, but it’s not working. The more she thinks about the awful incident, the more she felt her blood boiling in rage.
“Why am I even angry, huh?” She stops to ask herself, and when she didn’t get any answer to it, she groans frustratingly as she sits up on the bed, her fingers ruffling her hair roughly.
“Meow… Meow…” The crying voice of Milo pulls her attention, and she tilts her head to see the white little cat lying on the floor. Seeing the cute little cat, a wide smile spread on her face, but it only lasts for ten seconds and it disappears again as the realization hits her hard. She hasn’t fed the cat. It wasn’t her fault that she returned from the alpha’s chamber earlier this morning all tired after working her ass out there.
“Milo… I’m so sorry,” She whines as she swings her legs down the bed and gets to her feet. She drags herself to where the cat’s food is.
“Come on here little Milo, it’s time to have breakfast,” She chuckles softly as she picks Milo up in her arms and walks over to sit on the bed, feeding it afterward.
“Milo… Why am I feeling this way? Why was she with him? Is she his wife?” She asks sadly, pouting her lips while tickling Milo’s fur.
“Meow… Meow…” Milo cries out again and hops off her hand after it’s done eating.
Staring into space, her face drops sadly at the thought of alpha Damien. She has been trying to collect the possible reasons behind her sudden behavior, but nothing is happening. Still lost in thoughts, the door suddenly opens and Zoey walks inside looking so drained.
“Argh!” Zoey groans tiredly as she crashes herself on the bed. She has been out all day, taking care of the training center. Cleaning the weapons and making sure that they are clean is one load of work. She was happy to stay with her friend, but not until alpha Damien suddenly assigned her as the cleaner in the training center.
“You look tired. Are you OK?” It’s crazy how she still asks if she’s ok when it’s written all over her that she’s not.
“I have been out there all day for goodness sake. I’m not fine,” Zoey whines tiredly, as she drags herself to sit up on the bed.
“Have you eaten already? Do you need me to make you something to eat?” She asks Zoey worriedly.
“I’m not hungry. I already had breakfast before I started work. All I need now is a quality rest,” Zoey whines tiredly as she crashes her back against the wall.
“Alright…”
“Meow… Meow…” Milo cries softly as it jumps on Zoey’s body, smooching her softly and wiggling its tail on her face.
“Milo… Leave me alone, mummy is tired now,” Zoey whines breathlessly, carrying the cute cat in her arms and playing with it.
“Are you OK?” Seeing the sad look on Cassie’s face, Zoey asks worriedly taking all her attention to her.
“Me? Yes… yes, I’m fine. I was just thinking of something,” She force a faint smile which only lasts for some seconds and fades away. The burden in her heart is too much on her to let her face carry a smile.
“Your face is saying otherwise, Cassie. Are you sure you’re fine?” Zoey questions further, staring at her keenly as if the answer is written on her body.
“I’m fine, but…” She stops abruptly and bites her bottom lip. She needs someone to talk to, maybe she’ll find the solution if she lets this out, but will it be a good idea?
“But what?” Zoey questions with curiosity written all over her.
“Uhm… The thing is, I read a book lately. I saw the book on alpha’s shelf while I was cleaning his room, and it looked so beautiful. I couldn’t stop myself from checking it out, and it turned out to be an interesting novel…”
“Alpha Damien reads novel? But I heard he rarely read books,” Zoey expresses surprise as she pulls a puzzled look. She has heard so much about the alpha while she was still living amongst the omegas, and one of the things she learned he hated, is reading. Unlike most alphas that enjoy reading, Alpha Damien is an exception. Many people rumored that he doesn’t know how to read, while some people said that it was just his hatred for it. The former can’t possibly be the case. Although he didn’t go to school, he is intelligent enough to recognize words when he sees them, and he knows how to read fluently.
“Uhm… Really? But I saw the book there,” she asks nervously and bites the inner part of her bottom lip. She has just messed everything up. She’s not a good liar.
“That was what I heard. Anyway, what happened in the book? You’re making me get more curious,” Zoey questions further.
“One of the female characters found herself getting this feeling when she saw the male character with another female character. She felt her blood boiling in anger and her heart wrenched in pain. I couldn’t finish reading the book because alpha Damien later showed up and almost caught me red-handed. I’m just curious what might’ve caused that feeling,” She explains to Zoey.
“That’s simple. The female character is either having a crush on the male character, or maybe in love with him,” Zoey explains, and she chokes on her spit.
“Huh!” Her eyes widen in shock and her mouth wide open in shock.
“The latter must be the case. The female character is in love with the male character,” Zoey further explains, and her hand flies to cover her mouth, as her eyes almost pop out of their sockets. Could this be true? Is she in love with Damien? How’s that even possible?
