Alpha's Nala
Chapter 5. Promise and A Royal Promise
Legaxy
Yeah, ouch that I wanted to cry.
But a part of me knew already what he meant about his loyalty, and knowing how important this is for him, I just brush the pain off and tried to look cool.
Still, there's a part of me that wanted to be bitchy, stubborn, and be demanding as possible for explanations. I mean, it is my right to know what I am dealing with.
Not that I wanted to scare the living daylights out of me with the answers I might get, and make myself go crazy about the situation, but I just wanted to prepare myself for the outcome.
I know from the day I was raised by Vampires and Witches that danger lurks everywhere. That every little thing about me screams 'prey' and 'death'. So when I got the chance, I decided to train and learn ways to defend myself, under the courtesy of my strict brothers and overprotective parents, of course.
Nonetheless, at the end of the day, I never get to use any of it because my family — specifically, Seth, keeps on concealing things from me.
I know, even if he doesn't say it, he doesn't believe in me and I guess that's how I get for being human — weak and naive, in my brother's eyes...
Anyway, going back to how valuable loyalty is for Seth and understanding the strict rules bound around that commitment, I quickly change my mind and chose not to argue with him.
I bit my lip, so no further questions are asked. Then, abruptly, I began to think and worry as hell for myself as we started to walk down the pathway leading to the front door of our house.
Seth — calmed now, may have noticed the change of my demeanor that he put his one arm around my shoulder. He then made sure to massage my shoulder blade with his palm — to make me relax, I guess — before finally, letting out a shaky breath; making me think that he was holding it earlier.
“I'm sorry for saying that boo. I didn't mean to...I just want you to... I can't make you...” He trailed off completely.
I bit my lip harder, avoiding my tongue to work.
He didn't continue, instead, he squeezed my shoulder and kept quiet.
I hated this part of him because it always made my body tense up from anticipation; The stroke he does on my shoulder blades did not work one bit.
Even so, I didn't complain and kept my mouth shut. From there, as much as I dread the silence, I patiently waited for him.
A half-minute passed,
Nothing.
Tsk! This again. Yet, as good as I was, I waited.
Then another half passed,
