Chapter 56
Reign’S
POV
It’s been a few days since I found out about my sister’s treachery and I have not been in my best mood since then. The only person I talk to is Kylie and I have totally avoided Alpha Hardin and he seems to have understood because he hasn’t showed up in my room. I haven’t even seen him since then.
I need to feel this anger towards him.
I need to give him this silent treatment, he deserves even more. Bit by bit, the truth will be revealed. One day he will realize that he falsely accused me of killing my sister, but by then I’ll be long gone and he will live with that guilt for the rest of his life.
It’s nine am in the morning and I’m about to leave the castle for my appointment with doctor for my arm. As I descend the stairs leading to the living room, I see Beta Miguel walk in and the moment he sees me, he smiles. “Look who we have here”
“Good morning Beat Miguel” I greet as I approach him.
“Good morning Reign, how are you doing p>
“Perfect, thank you p>
“Cool”
“If you are here to see Alpha Hardin, he’s not around”
“I’m not here to see Alpha Hardin, I’m here to see you”
“Oh I exclaim in surprise “Is everything alright p>
“Uh…yeah, I just wants us to have a little chit-chat if you don’t mind”
“I can never mind having a chit-chat with you Beta Miguel”
“Cool p>
“So, what do you want us to talk about p>
“So, Alpha Hardin told me about the pheromone issue with your sister”
“Oh… that p>
“Yeah”
“What about it p>
“Well, I know that right now you are mad at him for p>
“I’m not mad Alpha Hardin, I hate him, I hate him for everything he has out me through” I cut hi off.
“Oh… is that so p>
“Yeah, he has always been the type to pronounce judgement on me without proper investigation. First, he blindly chooses my sister over me, second, he accused me of killing her and he had me tortured and third, he has had his fun taunting me in one way or the order ever since I came to this pack. Also, when I think of how he ordered his men to have my mentor killed, the hatred I feel in my heart only gets worst!” I explain bitterly and I can see Beta Miguel’s Adam’s apples rise and fall as he swallows dryly.
I’m not going to give room for any of them to talk me into not hating Alpha Hardin. I’m not going to let them change my mind.
“This is was deeper than I thought. The ball is in your court Reign, do what ever you want with it”
“Thanks for the reminder” I say with a smile.
“Are you heading somewhere p>
“Yeah, the hospital”
“Let me drop you off”
“No, I can p>
“I insist p>
“Oh boy”
“Come with me” He urges as he walks out of the living room and I follow suit.
Hardin’S POV
I’m seated on one of the built chairs in the field watching the junior wolves train with their mentors and all what I have on my mind is Reign and the fact that she hates me. That thought devastates me and from time to time, all I can do is sigh in frustration.
I caused all this.
This is all my fault.
I should have been curious. If only I exercised a but more patience, all this would not have happened. I could have been happy with Reign by now.
“Hey” Miguel greets as he sits by myside.
“Hey” I mumble under my breath.
I’m so weak and devastated that I don’t even have the energy to talk.
“Look, I know I promised you that I was never going to talk to Reign again, but I had to”
“You spoke with Reign?” I asked surprised.
“Yes” He replies giving me an unsure look.
“She let you talk to her p>
“Yes and No”
“What’s that supposed to mean p>
“Yes, that she let me talk to her and No that she cut me off immediately I brought up the pheromone topic”
“She told you she hates me right p>
“How did you find out p>
“I just know” I say shrugging my shoulders.
There’s a moment of silence.
“She’s indeed our Luna p>
“How do you mean p>
“The way she talks, with so much authority that is able to shut you up until she’s done talking. The Moon goddess never lies bro. Reign is definitely our Luna”
“Her authority is overwhelming. I can only imagine having her rule by my side”
“Then your reign will be a blast p>
“I have to talk to her, no matter what”
“You should”
I’m going to talk to her this night, whether she likes it or not.
“Can we talk?” I ask the moment she opens her room door. She silently nods her head and steps aside for me to get in. I walk over the sitting area as she closes the door and follows suite. “How have you been?” I ask concerned.
“What do you think p>
“I don’t know what I think, that’s why I asked p>
“Well I’ve been alright, and you p>
“I’ve been thinking”
“About what p>
“A lot of things, one of which happens to be the fact that you hate me”
“And why would you be thinking about that fact p>
“Because it actually bothers me”
“It bothers you that I hate you p>
“Kind of”
“I thought you hate me, isn’t this supposed to be balanced right now?” she asks as she tilts her head to the side and gives me a queer look.
“Well, I don’t think I hate you anymore”
“Aww… poor you”
“Reign this is not the time for you be sarcastic with me p>
“I can be sarcastic with you anytime, Alpha Hardin” Okay p>
Miguel was right. She’s indeed the Luna of this pack.
The attitude says it all.
“And it will interest you to know that Friday marks the end of my stay here. Remember our deal?” She asks with a raised brow and I can feel my heart begin to palpate in my chest. She’s right, Friday marks the end of her stay here and that’s just barely five days from today.
We had a deal and I can’t break it. Reign is going to leave me.
“Thanks for the reminder”
“Any time”
She says with an enthusiastic smile.
“I think that will all for now, Good night”
“Good night Alpha Hardin” I walk out of the bedroom and close the door behind me. Out if anger, I ram my fists into the nearby wall until my knuckles bleed.
This can’t be happening.
Reign can’t leave me!
