Silas’s POV
It was Kael standing there. What was he doing here? That’s what my mind was asking , but I was unable to understand and just stepped out of the bathroom leaving that candle holder inside. And stood there. How did he reach here? He was in the cave, wasn’t he, when Damon and I left from there?
"What are you doing here?" I asked. My attention went to the door, which was locked—aning he had locked it—and his awkward facial expressions while looking around. Even when I asked, he was hesitating to answer. Orian also ca out from the bathroom and stood behind .
"Isn’t he that Alpha?" Orian also recognized him.
"Kael, didn’t you hear what I asked?"
He took steps forward but didn’t co much closer. He just stood there.
"I was worried about you, that’s why I ca here... Sorry if I scared or disturbed you, but I didn’t an to do that."
I glanced back at Orian. He didn’t have much of a reaction—he was only looking at . But still, I couldn’t understand how he was able to get in.
"First, tell how you ca in, ’cause I know our guards don’t slack around usually. So if you ca inside, they must have tried to stop you." Even if I know Kael, still I can’t let this thing go without asking him anything.
’Cause he was able to sneak into my room—who knows, what if tomorrow soone else does this? Then what am I supposed to do?
"Actually, I was the driver who gave you a ride here. You didn’t see ’cause you were in a daze. I was worried about you, that’s why I ca, and when I saw you crying in front of your father, I snuck in."
Ohh, so that’s what happened. He was the driver. Well, I didn’t see the driver’s face, so I don’t know if he’s telling the truth or not, but for the sake of our friendship, I am willing to believe him.
"I am fine. You have seen , now leave." I am not in the mood to spend ti with Kael right now. I appreciate that he ca all the way here ’cause he was worried about , but that doesn’t an he particularly did anything to help other than just arriving there after everything was over. If they had co at the mont when I was pinned down by those Alphas and they were grabbing my hands and legs forcefully—
If they had co and saved at that mont, I would have really appreciated it. But their timing was not good after all.
And still, like an idiot, seeing them I was thinking they will hate now. Why does it matter even if they hate or not? ’Cause it’s not like they are my mate or sothing. So I should stop eting and talking to them for good.
Kael suddenly took out sothing from his cloak pocket—and they were my daggers, which I had dropped in the cave after seeing them. I really thought I wouldn’t get a chance to see them again, but here my friends have returned to . I hurriedly took those daggers from Kael’s hands.
"Thank you so much for bringing them back to ," my lovely daggers. Without them, I wouldn’t have been able to save myself today. They are like my savior.
After getting the daggers, I realized they were washed ’cause there was no trace of blood on them. It ans Kael must have washed them before bringing them to . He is not a bad person. He is good, but I don’t think anyone is that good to be my mate—’cause to be my mate, he will have to accept fully, the way I am, without complaining.
I put the daggers down on the bed and glanced at Kael again, who was standing there without uttering a word.
"Kael... thank you so much. I am really grateful that you brought these back to ." I was smiling, looking at him, but he was not smiling. Sadness was hovering on his face. His eyes seed red. I noticed tears in his eyes. They were welling up—I knew he was about to cry. And I guess Orian also noticed those tears.
"Silas, I have so work, so I’ll go now. Have a good talk," Orian said, leaving while nodding at Kael. After leaving, he closed the door behind him.
Now only Kael and I were in this whole room, and it was really awkward.
"Okay then, I’ll leave now," he said, and I nodded ’cause there was nothing to talk about right now. That’s why I didn’t stop him, and he left from there. Now I was the only one in the room. I went towards the bed and flipping onto the bed on my back.
I don’t know what I should call this feeling I’m feeling right now. I think it’s called a grateful feeling ’cause when he returned my daggers to , I started to feel happy. Yes, this is only a grateful feeling, nothing else.
I flipped to my right side and touched those daggers while putting them beside . I’m still angry at those Alphas, but it was bad luck that they all died. If they hadn’t died, I would have confined them in the dungeon and then tortured them myself.
But what can we do now when they’re already dead? And I think it’s good that they all died by my hands, ’cause now they will only go through hell. ’Cause my seat is reserved in hell—so if I kill soone, it ans they’re also gonna go into hell.
My eyes were staring at the ceiling, thinking about all the events that happened today. But I don’t want to act like this anymore—that’s why I closed my eyes, ’cause taking a nap is the most important thing in the whole world.
It helps you forget everything. And just gives you peace. I kept my eyes closed for a few minutes, but when I opened them, I realized I was literally sleepy and about to fall asleep. That’s why I closed them again. And this ti, I didn’t open my eyes.
"Silas, wake up. Let’s eat sothing."
