Chapter 426: 426

426 IS IT TRUE?

Emily couldn’t understand why Alpha Liam let his father endure such misery instead of helping him to recover, or letting him die...

The last one was a little bit extreme, but seeing how the previous alpha was in a lot of pain, Emily couldn’t help but sympathize with him. she couldn’t imagine what kind of hell that he had to go through during those six years.

“You need to keep this a secret, do you understand, Emily?” Ariana repeated the same words again once they walked out of the room, after they were done cleaning up Xerxes’s wounds.

“Yes,” Emily replied without hesitation. She looked at Ariana and then swallowed the remaining candy in her mouth, and the foul smell invaded her senses slowly, but it was not as strong as before, as they were outside.

“Including from Eros,” Ariana then added, which made Emily turn her head in question. “You can’t let him know about this.” She emphasized the importance of this.

“Eros will not say anything about it.” Emily didn’t want to promise something that she couldn’t keep, moreover, she talked about everything to Eros and she didn’t think he would do something horrendous regarding this information. She could rest assured about that.

“Emily, it is important for you to keep this a secret.” Ariana stopped walking, so Emily did the same. She raised her head and then looked at her. It was the first time for her to see how serious the healer was. “You can’t tell this to Eros, do you understand me?”

Emily bit her lips, but in the end, she nodded her head.

“If you want this to be a secret, why did you tell me about it? The less people know, the safer it will be, right?” Emily became worried because Ariana told her to keep it a secret even from Eros, because she had never kept anything secret from him before and this made her feel really uncomfortable.

.....

On the other hand, Ariana couldn’t tell anyone about it until now because the alpha told her to not talk about this. He didn’t explain further, but he told her to let Emily help her with Xerxes.

The alpha also knew that Emily started to learn from her, not only that, it was the alpha as well who told her to let this little girl learn about dark magic and poison after he heard that she had a talent for that.

What actually was he planning?

“Just listen to what I say, okay? Don’t tell anyone about this, do you understand Emily?” Ariana emphasized this matter again, and in the end, Emily nodded reluctantly.

======================

“How is your day?” Eros asked Emily when he picked her up from the infirmary and said their goodbyes to Ariana, who was there.

“Great,” Emily said, smiling, but Eros didn’t smile back. “What?” she asked because Eros didn’t give any reaction, as if he was waiting for something.

“Just great?” Eros asked. He walked beside her, as they crossed the street, where many people stared at them, or to be exact, they stared at Emily’s scar.

All of them knew about the two of them, the little lycan and the little human, also about the incident not so long ago. Now, instead of respect, they feared this little lycan and looked at him with disgust, especially when he was so overprotective of that little human beside him.

The reason behind the death of Derek was also something that had to do with that human girl. The thing that they couldn’t comprehend was the fact that the alpha didn’t punish him enough for killing a pack member.

“What else do I have to say?” Emily lowered her head, since she could feel all the people staring at her right now.

On the other hand, Eros realized that and he put his arm around his shoulder before throwing a dagger look at anyone who was staring at Emily.

Emily didn’t like to go around in the evening when people went out of their houses. Usually, she would wait until a little bit later to go back to the pack house.

That was why she got Eros’s dinner so late when he was still being locked inside that room.

“Usually, you will talk about your day.” Eros loved to hear how enthusiastic she was when she talked about new medicine or new lessons that Ariana taught her, but now, he only got a ‘great’? Not a full story?

There was something wrong with it, right?

“I want to tell you, but I am not allowed to tell you,” she confided and this made Eros look at her, asking for an explanation.

However, Emily started to look around her and became anxious with how many people that probably would hear her, thus Eros took her hand and walked faster to the pack house.

“Oh... tonight is a full moon, right?” Emily said, as she pulled Eros’s hand to make him slow down. “Why don’t we go to the lake? It has been a long time since we’ve been there, right?” Emily remembered the last time they went there was when Eros gave her this necklace, the necklace that she always wore.

The only precious thing in her possession.

“Sure, if you want to go there...” Eros agreed. It was quiet there and they really needed some fresh air after such a long and tiring day.

========================

“Is it true?” Jasmine asked Ariana, once she was sure that Emily had left with Eros. She had been waiting for this moment to be alone with the healer.

“You scared me,” Ariana complained, with her hand on her chest, because she didn’t realize that Jasmine had long woken up. “How long have you been awake?” She immediately approached her.

However, Jasmine kept repeating her words. “Is it true that he had died?” Both of them knew who she meant by ‘he’ in her question. “Is it true Liam had killed him?”

She hated the way her voice faltered.
