Sold As The Alpha King’s Breeder Chapter 415

Chapter 73: Faking Love

I watched his back as he was leaving, and pondered what he just said.

‘I was just passing by.’

That was a lie.

Tallis was hiding something, I knew he was. There was a familiarity about him that I just couldn’t shake. It was this air of calm and cold that he carried. I had felt it once before and only with one other person.

But could it be?

I had asked him numerous times and each time he refuted my claims. He was not the somber prince I knew.

So why did they both carry the same aura?

I shook my head thinking I had lost my damn mind. First the fake Ciana and now this. My problems and questions kept piling up with each passing day.

It didn’t matter now though. I had more important matters to attend to.

My mind was turning fast. Fake Ciana had professed her undying love to Warren. This was what I had been hoping for. Phase one of the plan was complete and now it was time to move onto phase two.

Whoever Tallis was, he could wait.

I turned on my heel ready to walk back to where fake Ciana and Warren had been, but I slammed into a warm wall.

I stumbled a few steps back before a pair of strong arms came out and caught me.

“You okay there, Ciana?”

Warren helped me to steady myself.

“Yeah,” I looked up at him. “Where is the other Ciana? What happened? I had to leave because…”

My voice trailed off as the words got stuck in my throat. I didn’ t want to worry Warren. He had a tendency to somehow shift blame of every bad thing that happens onto himself, especially when it regarded me.

I often thought that he had too much honor at times. I wished he would be a little less chivalrous.

“Because?” He pressed.

“It’s nothing. Now tell me what’s going on with her?”

Warren stepped closer, crossing into that imaginary bubble l had around me.

“What happened, Ciana?” His eyes held mine.

“I told you nothing.”

“It doesn’t sound like nothing. Your heart’s racing, you have that little nervous nose twitch you do when you’re hiding something. So spill it.”

I stood still for a moment in complete shock. “How do you know about the twitch?”

He rolled his eyes. “I notice everything about you, Black. Now spill it.”

I let out a sigh and bit down on my lip. “Hawke came by.”
