His Dark Obsession

55. Confident

ZEDKIEL.

I don’t know what to expect from her anymore. I retreat to the back courtyard, leaning against the castle walls and staring out at the gardens trying to clear my head.

I’m letting it get to me too f**king much, the way she makes me feel. Her every action is something I’m beginning to overthink, every word that leaves those plush lips of hers and I don’t like it.

The pull I feel towards her is only growing stronger with every passing day.

The sound of footsteps reaches my ear and I know who it is before I even turn.

“So, what are you doing out here without your little wife?” Ragnar says, smirking as he leans against the wall next to me.

“And why do you care?” I ask, not bothering to look at him.

“I don’t, but after what happened, I would expect you to be joined to her by the hip and watching her ever so closely.” He crosses his arms, and I don’t reply.

“What do you really want, Ragnar?”

“Nothing… I’m just curious about your choice in women. Don’t get me wrong, she is a gorgeous one, but doesn’t seem very fitting for Luna. I mean, she doesn’t even have a wolf, odd choice, wouldn’t you agree?”

I now turn and look at him coldly. “You don’t need to worry over my woman… move along and stay out of my business.”

“I’ll try.” He replies. I glance back at him, but he has that same arrogant look in his eyes that he always. does and the amusement that plays on his lips is obvious, too.

I turn away and am about to walk away when he speaks.

“The vampires tried to sneak into the city. Did you hear or has father tried to hush it up? I heard they were looking for something.” He says casually.

I clench my jaws; my brothers know exactly what I am… for him to mention it out here in the open irks me. “Yeah, well, I don’t really care what they were looking for.” I snarl, and it annoys me further when his smirk grows. 1

“There are rumours… I’m surprised you haven’t heard, considering you used to be quite on top of all this? Well, that is, until you became extremely distracted since that little omega came into your life.” He drawls.

“What rumours?” I ask, ignoring the rest of his statement.

“Well, I’m not one to spread rumours, so I’m afraid you are going to have to find out for yourself.” Ragnar says before he pushes past me. “Besides, I’m certain it’s nothing for any of us to worry about… right? B**ody Vampires.”

I frown, watching him leave but say nothing.

Why were they here?
