Chapter 86
Reign’S POV
Don’t get too excited that Lyla and Adam played earlier today. Once we shapeshifted into our human forms, I made sure to bring up a quarrel and we separated after properly yelling at each other.
More of, me yelling at him though.
I know I’m being mean, but I have to do this.
Right now I’m getting myself ready to go and see my cousin, Clark and I’m very excited. It’s been a while since I last had a peaceful discussion with a relative and I look forward to talking with him.
I walk over to the mirror to inspect myself and I’m convinced that I look okay. I step out of the room and make my way downstairs.
Once I get to the living room, I spot Clark seated on the couch.
“Clark!” I call in excitement and he immediately sits up from the couch with a smile plastered on his face. I rush into his outstretched arms and he engulfs me in a big bear hug.
This like the fourth time I’m seeing him and I know absolutely nothing about him or the kind of person he is, but just the fact that we are blood alone makes me love him.
I love him very much and I can’t wait to know him more!
“How are you doing cupcake?”
“Not bad, my left hand is properly healed and right now I can kick some asses, I feel elated!”
“That’s nice”
“Let’s go for a walk in my favorite part of this whole castle”
“Which is?” He asks amused.
“The garden!” I squeal in excitement.
Actually, that is my second favorite place in the castle. Hardin’s bedroom is the first, but no one can’t know that, so I just have to tell everyone that the garden is the first.
“After you Luna” He says in a formal tone and I just shake my head and lead the way out of the living room.
“So, how are things between you and the Alpha?”
“Rough!”
“Still mad at him, aye?”
“You have no idea!” I reply as I sit on the one of the built sits in the garden and he does same.
“Well, I can’t really say I know what he made you go through because I wasn’t here, but what I know is that he really regrets him actions towards you. He’s sorry for treating you the way he did”
“I know that”
“Then why don’t you want to give him a chance”
“Well…I just don’t want to.” I say with a careless “He can’t just mend things between us with a simple apology” I say naughtily and he just chuckles.
“He sent me to you”
“For what exactly?”
“It’s kind of bad news and he is scared of how you like react once he tells you so he said I should tell you on his behalf”
“Tss…” I snort “Cowardice!” I darn.
“No, that’s nothing close to cowardice cupcake. When a man can’t tell his woman some sort of bad news, that doesn’t make him a coward. He is just scared of how you will react and most importantly, he doesn’t want to see the look of disappointment in your eyes. He is devastated that he has disappointed you”
“What exactly has happened?” I ask alarmed and he looks at me long and hard and let’s out a heavy sigh.
“News reached us this morning that Uncle Logan escaped from the dungeon”
“Uncle Logan as in in my father?”Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
“Yeah”
“How did that happen?” I ask furious and he just shrugs his shoulders.
“Nobody know, but we strongly believe it’s one of the guards doing. An investigation had been launched and when the culprit he will found, he will be punished severely!”
“Who cold have the audacity to go against the Alpha?”
“There’s courageous people out there sis.”
“Not Impressed at all. I had hoped to see that man die in the most brutal way!”
“That’s why Hardin couldn’t tell you this himself, he is not happy about the fact that he has disappointed you”
“Hardin has disappointed me from the first day we met, so this isn’t strange at all”
“Reign, can’t you find it in your heart to forgive him?” He asks calmly and I just stay still.
Well, I have already forgiven him but I can’t let anyone know because if my trip to Goodland.
“After all what he put me through?”
“He’s sorry Reign and he wants to make it up to you. All he wants is for you to give him a chance to make things right between the two of you. I know my Alpha, if you give him this chance, you won’t regret it. Please sis, try to reconsider. Alpha Hardin needs you”
He pleads on Hardin’s behalf and I kind of find it annoying. When he maltreated and tortured me, no one stood up for me, but now that I’m denying his apologies, everyone is defending him. This is actually unfair, they are all making me feel like I’m heartless for denying his apology time and again.
“Please..” He pleads yet again.
“How is Rayna doing?” I change the topic.
“She is doing just well”
“Nice” I say nodding.
None if them will force me into something I do not want…
Bloody hell, how can I say this?
I actually want this, with all my heart but I have to do otherwise.
Hardin’S POV
“So you are now scared of Reign, aye?” Miguel asked as he pours himself a glass of wine and I just roll my eyes in annoyance. I just told him what I did and he doesn’t seem too happy about it.
“It’s not like I’m scared of Reign, I just don’t want to see the look of disappointment in her eyes when tell her that her father escaped, also, she has some really mean words that she always says to me, I don’t want to hear them.” I explain as I tiredly rub my forehead with my palms and shake my head. “Do you sincerely think she is ever going to forgive me?”
“If you’d ask me, I’d say she already has. She’s just trying to be naughty, girls are normally naughty”
“But she said she wants to leave”
“No she doesn’t!”
“Yes she does!”
“You can’t let her leave!”
“I will, but I’ll go after her immediately. I just don’t want to offend her right now” I explain and he chuckles in amusement.
“You know, the two of you actually are a perfect match. I like the way you deal with each other”
“We are both very stubborn mates, perfect match as you rightly said”
“I can’t wait for the day when she’ll finally say yes. There’s going to be great feast” He anticipates and I just smile
“Of course there will, the day I crown her as Luna, I’m going to invite Alphas all around the world, it’s going to be the coronation of the Millennium. I was a fool to ever think that I could deny her as my mate. Right now I can’t even live with her”
“That’s the power of the moon goddess”
“Indeed it is”
I take a sip of my wine and lean backwards on my chair as rock it front and back.
The day is going to come when Reign and I are going to stop fighting and be at peace with other. That day when I will finally be a complete happy man.
“Everything is going to work in your favor Hardin, just keep pushing and never give up on our Luna”
“Giving up is not an option Miguel.” I say confidently.
If only I knew the kind of storm that was coming ahead.
