I woke up, groaning at the cloudy feeling under me. As I blinked open my eyes and sat up, I realised I was laying on a bed instead of the hard, cold floor that I had gotten used to over the years.

This mere, small memorable feeling brought back the memories that had gotten deep-buried over the years. The time when I had been carefree and worried about nothing but being close to my parents and fantasising about my future mate. Living the life of a princess in my parent’s eyes and having fun with my friends and then… like my life flipped drastically and everything fell down into a burning volcano.

I turned my head, my eyes immediately falling on the body that lay on the ground, lifeless. Alpha Wyatt, what a joke of an alpha he lived his life as. A tyrant, a bully, and a monster to the life I had to endure in these five years, now died miserably in his own room.

Everything ended. I am no princess now. My mate is nowhere to be found. And my life… it’s about to turn upside down once again.

The faint sound of the door getting opened snatched my attention.

“Awake already?” Liam walked in with a small smile.

After making me rest on the bed last night, he had left the room to make other arrangements.

I nodded my head as he got closer and sat down on his knees on the ground in front of me. His hands grasped mine, his gaze earnestly staring up at me, “Everything is under my control now, Mia.”

“Do you feel alright?” I asked gently.

“The effect of the paralyzer already wore off hours ago. I don’t feel anything wrong,” he muttered as his fingers tightened around mine. He paused for a moment, and then whispered, “Mia, will you be mine now?”

My body stiffened at his words, “Liam, we aren’t mates.”

Liam looked down at his chest to hide his face. Then he lifted up his head slowly, looking at me with a cold stare. “You and I have been together since childhood. You and I are the ones who are meant to end up together, no matter what happens in the end. Even if your mate appeared, I will kill him.”

My heart stopped for a few moments. I could not even breathe.

I want to be as sure as him. I want to stop this voice inside me telling me this is wrong. I can easily deceive him, telling him I feel the same way as he does. He would be over the moon hearing that. I can lie to the only person who truly cares for me.

But in the end, My gaze gingerly fell upon him, and muttered “Even if I don’t feel the same?”

“Even so,” He answered. “It’ll grow on you eventually,” he forced a smile.

“I’ll think about it.” I shoved down every little voice telling me not to agree while pulling my hands out of his grasp, “I promise that I’ll give you the answer tomorrow.”
