Reborn As The Alpha King’s Second Mate

05:Dreams

Damon.

“Don’t leave me, Zara.” I whimpered before jerking my entire body back to reality.

It was just a dream, the same old dreams that has always kept me awake at the nights, because I didn’t want to watch how I had let her go. Right in front of me, Zara took her last breath and there was nothing I could do about it than watch. I had cried, tried to hurt myself just to be with her, but nothing did work.

Only one person knows the sorrows that I have been through ever since the day that I lost Zara, that person watches me at my lowest, trying to fight the demon that wants to rip over my body and make me a monster and that person is Beta Levi. No matter how I had treated him, he doesn’t take it to heart. Well, it isn’t like he has any choice than to let it be.

For the past two years, I had only had one wish, to be with Zara. The witch said that there is a probability that I would get together with her in the afterlife if I should die today but now, with a changed Willow if I must put it that way, I want to know what is going on in her head.

The old Willow that I know falls on her feet when she sees me passing around, her body shivers in fear when I am close to her. Heck, she doesn’t even try to demand my attention; it was something that she had always avoided.

Perhaps, the hit on her head has badly affected her, making her this way. Even though, the doctor had said that there was nothing wrong with the scan they ran over her. She is perfectly fine so there is a chance that she is pretending to have forgotten the kind of life that we had lived together in the past. “Maybe, she wants to take her revenge.” My wolf mumbled making me sits up and I let out a scoff.

She can’t be serious if that is what is going on in her head, revenge should be the last thing on her mind. She is here because my father had his way through it, to settle his scores with her father and that was it. And for the first time that she was into this house, I had told her. I had no space left in my heart to accommodate her love.

I warned her, there was nothing that would ever strike between us. It was as simple as that and she took it in well. So now, why does she think that she has the gut to get revenge on me? “Or we should study her. There is something totally different about her.” he suggested.

“I have no time to waste on study someone that I have been with for years. I would have to set her straight and let her know her place in this house again. She is nothing more than a mere picture for decoration.” I gritted.

If I let things get out of hand, then Willow might think that she is slowly achieving what she had wants.

I couldn’t sleep throughout the night, no matter how hard I had tried, the pills doesn’t even work anymore. It was eight in the morning, time for breakfast to be served in the pack house. I could hear the faint commotion coming from the kitchen.

It used to be quiet, that if a needle is being dropped then the sound would be heard and I had always loved it that way. There is no use for the house to be lively when she isn’t around. “Levi, what is going on?” I questioned as I walked into the dining room.

“I am not quite sure but I was told that Miss Willow is the one in the kitchen, cooking breakfast.” He replied.

That isn’t something new to say about, the difference was that Willow would have never been this loud. She would have tried her best to see that no noise comes out from where she is, or what is close to her. “Then have her know that I need absolute silence around the house.” I instructed, walking out of the dining room.

“What about the food?” Beta Levi asked as he ran after me.

I shook my head, I had totally lost appetite. “Is there any update?” I inquired.

From the side of my eyes, I saw as he retrieved his phone. “Here, I got this in the morning but I have figured out what it meant yet.” He informed.

I pushed back the phone to his hand. “Then figure out what it means. We have to catch him either ways.”

Because of Willow’s accident, I had put everything on halt, so it means that I am lacking behind. I needed to get my hands on the person that would lead us to the end game. I need to know if my suspicion is right, that the person that had murdered my Zara is closer than I had ever imagined. “I will get on it now.”

He left the office, while I took a seat, letting out a deep sigh. Why can’t I keep everything aside and concentrate on the real deal? Why do I care about what Willow could possibly be doing in the other side of the house? It isn’t like I am fond of her; I hate her and everything that has to do with her.

I pushed my back onto the chair, trying to find a relaxing point that perhaps might help me in getting relieved. But it didn’t help; there was nothing comforting about anything that I do around the house. It is always suffocating, knowing that she isn’t here. “You will soon be with her; it is only a matter of time.” I comforted myself.

I don’t know how I am going to do it, or how I am going to get to her, but I will keep trying and never give up. If I can get her back into my life, then I would stop at nothing for that. Buried deep in thoughts, I had no idea when the door was opened, I only saw someone standing in front of me. Someone that I had stopped from coming into this place. “I brought you breakfast.” Willow said cheerfully.

I blinked twice, just to be sure that I wasn’t hallucinating. When she had hit her head, it came with a new confidence with it. “I have told you countless time not to ever step your foot into my office.” I gritted, yet there was a chill feeling in my heart.

Why does it feel like it is Zara that is standing in front of me? I have never felt this way, and Zara can’t come back to me in form of Willow, I should check with the witch to be sure. “I can’t really remember the part that you asked me not to step into your office but I did remember to bring you breakfast, so you should be thankfully.” She said cockily, feeling on top of the world.

I began to feel myself boiling in anger. She doesn’t have the right to talk back to me, in that manner after I had made everything clear. If I had pushed her harder than this, then she would have been dead. I deeply regret not doing that. “I need you to walk out of here before I hurt you again.” I uttered, my eyes closed as I tried to push back the anger.

The anger and the chill feeling in my heart were mixing up and I am not sure of what it felt exactly. “Yes, I will walk out but can you make it possible that I leave for a trip to the Gold heart pack? It is kind of urgent.” She requested.

“No.” came my curt reply. I didn’t leave any room for her to argue more, just like I had never given her a chance to think of something good for herself.

There is nothing good about her and her family.
