Chapter 483: Regret
EMMA
~
I heard voices, which was weird because I knew we should be alone. I pondered who Dace was talking with and why he suddenly wanted
to go upstairs and wait for him. I thought no one was ant to disturb us. The curiosity got the best of
and I chose to go against Dace’s instruction and welcod whatever punishnt he had for .
I took a pair of jeans since Dace had the liberty of ripping every last one of them to shreds, he does it every single ti instead of taking it off like a normal person. Yeah, when had he ever been normal? I might just need a new wardrobe because of this.
I rushed downstairs and the further I got the more a particular voice seed familiar. Is that Grayson? A smile instantly spread against my lips as I hurried to see my brother.
"You’re keeping her here against her will and I don’t like it. Stop being selfish Dace and let her see her family" Grayson sounded angry and impatient.
I paused as I set my eyes on them, allowing the words he had said earlier to grip ... Keeping
against my will? I don’t understand.
"Selfish?" Dace growled like an animal. "Family?! The sa family that took her away from ?!"

"Dace, calm down," Grayson said the mont his eyes pinned on . The next words Dace said shattered sothing within .
"Don’t you fucking tell
to calm down! I don’t care if I’ve to keep her locked up here forever, she’s not leaving!"
I gasped, a strong sense of deja vu overwhelming
to the core. He sounded just like The Dark Alpha who kidnapped
and dragged
across the world to his den. I thought that personality was gone.
"Dace!" Grayson snapped.
Slowly Dace turned and we locked our gaze, but I couldn’t reciprocate the passion in them, I just stared at him with stunned eyes. My hands trembled and I gripped my jeans to steady them, I felt like collapsing, breaking into a million pieces I’m not sure I could gather back. Not only was the situation confusing, it felt like I was betrayed.
"W-What’s he talking about?" I asked before taking my eyes back at Grayson, a strong sense of feeling that Dace wouldn’t give
the answer I needed. "What do you an by my family wanting to see ?" it was a whisper of confusion and a pending hope.
Grayson sighed heavily running his hands through his hair. "They rember"
"R-Rember?" my voice choked.
"Emma" Dace said my na, distracting
to look at him. There was a look in his eyes I couldn’t explain, maybe a silent plead that I shouldn’t listen to Grayson anymore or a warning but that only made
more curious about what the fuck was going on.
"Emma, Mom, and Vanessa they—"
"SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH!" Dace bood, cutting Grayson off and I jumped, because this was the first ti he had ever raised his voice like this. The past month he had been calm despite being unstable, but now it seed like the entire ti I was dreaming.
"She deserves to know!" Grayson barked and faced
once again. "They rember Emma, they both rember!"
I shook my head slowly, my lip trembling uncontrollably and the tears falling on their own accord, I squeezed my eyes shut as my breathing shuddered before opening them to glare at Dace.
"The phone you crushed it" This was another discovery that shook
to the bone, the feeling of backstabbing. "You said you didn’t want us to be disturbed"
"Emma" he walked and cupped my cheeks.
"Y-You lied" The words coming off
were unbelievable, I couldn’t even begin to comprehend how I felt right now, all I knew was I didn’t want to look at him right now.
"No no, don’t look away from
Emma, please" he begged.
I rasped and then I pushed on his chest to take his hands off
because I couldn’t deal with this pain. "You said you still needed to recover and I believed you!" I scread at his face. "But you only wanted to keep
here, forever? I’m not a bird in a cage Dace! You’re acting just like—"
’"Just like what?!" he snapped. "They took you away from , they are the reason why I lost you"
I shook my head again. "This is my mother, my family"
"Then what about ?"
"W-What?"
He chuckled but it was humorless as he ran a hand through his head. "You’re my lioness, Emma, you’re my family for eternity. This isn’t like before when you were a teen" he closed the distance between us. "In all rights, it ans you’re my fucking wife" he grabbed my neck.
"Dace!" Grayson warned.
"Stay the fuck out of this, Gray!" he barked and then faced
back, anger and pain burning in his golden hazels, it was a crazed look in his eyes that did not blend well, it was like I was seeing a part of two teetering personalities blending. No... I had it all wrong, he wasn’t fighting against two personalities, he had always been both.
"You’re mine" he growled, black veins creeping around his face like he was trying to keep from shifting. "I’ll not let them take that away from
even if it ans never seeing them again" he faced Grayson who looked on the verge of attacking but remained still for my sake. "Leave us alone, and don’t co back"
"No" I murmured, taking his hand away from my neck, I forced him to. "Watch
leave" I walked past him to Grayson.
"Emma!" he bood and I halted my step but I didn’t turn to leave. "Don’t do what you’ll regret"
Slowly I turned back to him. "Will you hurt
if I leave?"
His gaze softened at my words but only I could see.
"Touch , and you’ll regret it"
