Chapter 100: Dreams

Leia turned to face him and stared at him with a questioning expression on her face. "Adrik, what is going on?" Her eyes fluttered, and she proceeded to walk to him, but Adrik pushed her back and made her sit down on the edge of the bed.

He then squatted down to her level and gazed into her eyes. "Little wife, can you explain to me exactly what you saw in that pond? What got you so hypnotized? " An expectant expression became apparent on his face, and he patiently waited for her to say something.

Leia's eyes flickered and her gaze darted around as if she was trying to recall something. She clutched her hair and lowered her head, her eyes tightly shut.

Adrik's brow creased deeply, and he grabbed her hand, then lifted her chin to have her look at him. "Little wife-"

"Adrik... I-I can't remember anything." She said this with a blank look on her face, and her eyes blinked in confusion. "I really don't remember anything! I just don't understand!" She lowered her head as the urge to scream overwhelmed her.

Adrik took a deep breath and stood up, tossing his mask away. He sat on the bed beside her and pulled her into his warm embrace. "It's okay, nothing is wrong." He kissed her on the forehead and gently tucked her hair behind her ear.

Leia gazed at him and unexpectedly hugged him tightly, burying her face in his chest. "I love you." She said, and Adrik patted her on the back and stroked her hair. "I love you too."

"What do you say about a nice warm shower?" He drew back from the embrace and stared at her face. "I would love to give you a bath." He smiled and pinched her cheek.

"Okay." Leia nodded, and he lifted her from the bed and carried her to the bathroom in bridal style.

He filled the bathtub with water and helped her undress, then laid her in the tub. He also did the same, and they had a nice warm bath together.

He wrapped her up in a towel and covered himself in a white robe, as usual.

Adrik led her to the bed and had her sit down. Then he walked into the dressing room and grabbed a pair of purple pyjamas, and returned to help her dress up.

Completely clothed, Leia took a low breath and cupped his cheek with her hands, then planted a soft kiss on his lips. "You're the best thing that ever happened to me. Honestly, I am glad I was sold to you in the first place." She chuckled softly and flicked her finger at his forehead. "Let's go to sleep."

She stood up from the edge of the bed and climbed in to lie down. Adrik took a deep breath and walked over to lie down beside her.

The time ticked slowly by, and they gradually fell asleep while holding onto each other tightly.

Walking alongside the road, Selena staggered from left to right, showing how much alcohol she had and how drunk she was.

Her fiery red hair was messy, and the same was for her clothing. "He chose that bitch over me." She kept repeating it as she walked wherever she was going.

Crazy laughter, which slowly turned into a pessimistic one, escaped from her mouth, and she yelled sadly and angrily at the same time.

She stood at the bridge, which was the same place that Leia had come to before, and gazed up at the half-moon in the sky.

Her fingers began to point as she counted the stars in the sky, and she couldn't help but chuckle once again.

Selena stared into the water under the bridge she was standing on, and as though an idea popped into her brain, her eyes fluttered.

Should she... commit suicide? I mean, she indeed found her real parents, but... they didn't have much love for her. The feelings of the family didn't spread within her, but she found herself always feeling uncomfortable around them.

Maybe it's because they were not there when she grew up from a little child to who she is now. 

Adrik was the only one who her heart accepted, the only one she felt comfortable and happy with.

Just the sight of him makes her stomach flutter. She had found out she had a crush on him after the day he saved her from drowning. She had accidentally fallen into the ocean near their pack, and Adrik was the only one that rushed to save her.

From that day, she found herself blushing when he talked to her. She feels butterflies in her stomach when his hand touches her. It might not be much, and yes, he has no other intention, but to her, it was something that caused a different reaction within her.

The day she had told him she liked him, Adrik had looked at her as someone with a mental problem and straight-up rejected her. He told her that he only loved her as a sister and nothing more than that.

The closeness they had began to falter from that day onward, and eventually, they became distant, but that didn't stop her heart from loving him more.

A deep breath escaped her nose and she gazed up at the sky and down at the water beneath the bridge. Since she can't have Adrik, it's useless for her to live in this world. She won't be able to bear seeing him with another woman, so she would rather die.

A pessimistic smile formed on her lips, and she slightly nodded her head as a few drops of tears fell from her eyes. She sighed deeply and used her finger to dab them off.

She slowly climbed up onto the fence and gazed out to the horizon that was already taken over by darkness. The night breeze brushed against her face and she shut her eyes. 

....

Controlling the steering wheel while checking his phone now and then, Victor raised his eyes to stare at the road ahead of him, and his brow immediately furrowed in bewilderment.

From a far distance, he could see a young woman standing on the fence of the bridge, ready to end her life. His face darkened immediately, and as though something was urging him to surge and stop the young woman from committing suicide, he raised the speed of his car and drove to stop a bit away from the young woman.

He hurriedly stepped down from the car and rushed up to her. Victor looked up to see her eyes shut, and he couldn't help but yell to get her attention. "Hey!!! Miss!"

He waved his hands at her, and the young woman, who was obviously Selena, opened her eyes and turned her head to glimpse the person yelling.

Her leisure gaze fell on Victor, and her face frowned in displeasure.

"Miss, could you please come down from there? You don't have to make such a rash decision, no matter what the reason is okay." Victor screamed, hoping to convince her, but she frowned deeply and gazed at him with dangerousness apparent in her gray eyes.

"I know you don't know me, nor do I know you, but I beg you, don't take such irrational action. I don't know what happened, or what might have caused you to make such an unreasonable decision, but I want to let you know that no matter what it is, it's not over. Things happen to us, and instead of giving up like a coward, we become strong and continue to move on. "

"So please, if you're not a coward, come down, but if you jump, you will be a chicken even in death." Victor gazed intently at her, awaiting her reaction.

Selena's eyes narrowed and she stared at him, contemplating his words in her mind.

Somehow, his words are hitting her like a hammer. Maybe he is right. Why try to kill herself for someone who won't give a damn even after she's gone? Life is really complicated. She took a low sigh and slowly nodded at Victor.

Victor smiled and walked up to her to help her climb down.

The moment their bodies touched as he helped her down, Selena's body quivered uncontrollably, and she accidentally slipped, falling on her butt. 

Victor's eyes blinked awkwardly, and he grabbed her wrist to help her up, but Selena's eyes fixed on him, gazing at him as though something was on his face.

At that moment that their bodies touched, she had felt something like sparks electrify through her body, causing her to fall. Something in her heart kept telling her that he was hers.

Her wolf, Elise, was excited at that moment, threatening to let loose.

Is he... her mate? Selena's eyes fluttered; she couldn't think of anything else that could have caused this.

She reached out her hand to his face and tenderly caressed her cheek. As though trying to confirm it, the sparks spread through her body once again, and she hurriedly inhaled and exhaled. He is indeed her mate! She has a mate! A human mate! And a hot one at that!

Her lashes flickered with excitement and pleasure, and her eyes could not help but glow as she stared into his blue eyes.

"Um... Miss, are you oka- " Before Victor, who felt awkward, could finish his question, Selena's lips slammed into his, kissing him roughly.

Victor's eyes widened like a saucer and he immediately grabbed her hands and pushed her away. He wiped his lips and gazed at her as though staring at a psychopath. "What the hell is wrong with you, woman?" He created a distance between her and himself and stood still, his eyes staring at her.

Selena's eyes fluttered shut as she felt very hurt and a low breath escaped her nose.

Victor's gazes blinked in a bit of regret, and he scratched the back of his hair. He let out a low sigh and slowly walked towards her.

He squatted down to her level and his eyes darted around with remorse. "I am... sorry for pushing you like that." He said, and Selena lifted her head to stare at him. 

He immediately drew his head back a bit, to make sure she didn't kiss him again. "Please, don't do that again." He smiled awkwardly, and when he saw no reaction from her, he relaxed.

His smile turned into a genuine one and he gazed intently at her. "Where is your home? I can give you a ride if you want." He offered, but Selena replied not, and he suddenly got a bit confused. Doesn't she have a home? Hmmm, but she isn't dressed like a homeless person.

"You... don't have anywhere to go?" Victor asked, and Selena slightly nodded her head at him. His brow raised in a bit of disbelief, but he nevertheless decided to believe her.

"All right, then, how about I let you stay at my house for the night and we can figure out what to do about your situation tomorrow?" He smiled at her and Selena nodded at him.

"Good." He carefully helped her up from the ground and gradually led her to the car. He opened the front door for her and helped her in, then walked over to sit in the driver's seat.

He started the car engine and slowly sped off down the road.

Leia, who was lying beside Adrik, began to turn as though having a terrible dream.

She was within a burning flame, which was neither harming nor burning her skin. The room was dark with only the fire she was burning in it giving off light.

Surrounding her were human shadows, laughing and chanting words in a language she couldn't understand.

From afar, a man sat on a high throne, but she couldn't glimpse his face nor his looks. He was just a dark shadow like the ones encircling her.

Her body was bleeding just like before, and her blood was tainting the floor.

She began to vigorously shake her head, telling herself it was just a dream. Beads of sweat started to fall from her forehead and her back, and she clutched her hair.

She whimpered and yelled, but not a sound escaped her mouth. It was as if she had lost her voice. She instantly went into a state of panic and touched her throat. She parted her lips, trying to say a word, but not a single word left her mouth.

...

Leia's hand was wrapped tightly around Adrik's neck as if trying to strangle him, and her face altered from time to time. Anyone looking at her would immediately know she was fighting something.

Adrik's eyes dilated, and he grabbed her hand, trying to free himself, but he suddenly realized that her grip was stronger. It was as though she was possessed. 

The strength that her grip held was extraordinary in that it matched Adrik's own. Adrik's face puckered in confusion and skepticism, and he added more strength. However, he still wasn't able to break free.

When did Leia become this strong? Even to the extent that he, an alpha wolf, couldn't break free from her grip.

He mocked himself for his improbable thoughts and tried to break free.

Leia's eyes abruptly sprang open, and she inhaled and exhaled heavily, then fell back as her body instantly went numb.

Her grip on Adrik's neck loosened, and Adrik immediately inhaled to catch his breath. He hurriedly lifted her to have her sit on the bed and caressed her hair. 

His eyes gazed at the sweats all over her body and face, and his brow creased in bewilderment. Just what exactly is going on?

He planted a soft kiss on her forehead and gazed at her face, only to see her staring at him with tiredness apparent in her eyes. "Everything is okay." He kissed her again and slowly laid her on the bed and embraced her tightly. "I will not let you go, and will make sure the rest of your sleep is peaceful.." He said and wiped off the beads of sweat on her forehead.
