"You won't believe me," she said, pretty sure that he wouldn't.

He hated liars too but he knew deep inside he could never hate a liar more than this one woman in front of him. He was a victim of lies too. Lies by omission.

She looked down at the ground, not daring to meet his gaze. "Dylan, I love you." She mumbled quietly.

"Do you know who I am?" He asked, his tone low and threatening.

she swallowed nervously as she tried to hold onto her composure and look directly into his eyes. "Yes," she whispered and he pursed his lips slightly.

"So you do know who I am and also that I'm not capable of loving anyone, especially someone like you."

"Yes but I still do," she said, trying not to seem intimidated even though it was obvious.

Oh?" He replied sarcastically, not believing what he heard but there was something else that had caught his attention. "I suppose you do." he sneered. His gaze softened and he sighed as he ran a hand through his hair. His sarcastic replies made her gulp in fear.

    Maybe he'd kill her right there where she was kneeling, kneeling before him, kneeling for her own crime and maybe even dying for it because she was the only one who would bear the consequences for her actions. "What did you do?" he repeated sternly. "Dylan I'll whatever you want but please believe me." "You lied to me." Dylan explained, his tone leaving no doubt about his anger. She didn't respond. Why was he being so cruel? There must be some kind of mistake. He couldn't actually plan to punish her, surely not after everything she went through. It wasn't fair. She'd deserved that. "Please stop. Stop hurting me!" she cried out, feeling herself falling deeper into despair. "I'm telling the truth... I promise. You need to believe me!" Dylan sighed heavily and stared at her in confusion. "I'll let the subjects decide on the death you deserve." "No, no, that can't be right." she stuttered, her heart hammering furiously in her chest. "Dylan please...please tell me you don't mean t

  • Alpha Dylan's Perfect Mate    The truth

    The king pretended to be oblivious to the fact that Vivian was lying to him. The letter had said it all. He doubted whether he should go and confront her or wait a little and observe what was bound to happen first but what if she decided to strike while the iron was still hot, ignorant to the fact that he was not aware of her misguided plans?The king decided to do something about it but still wanted to pretend not to be aware of anything. He decided to call her to come over for dinner."Send me Vivian. Tell her I said she is invited to have dinner with me and if she is okay with that, she is free to come." The king sent out his words to Vivian through his guard which was delivered successfully."Yes your majesty!" The palace guard answered as he swiftly swung into action."Good." The king replied as he rested his head on his knuckles.Time for dinner arrived and the king and Vivian were patiently waiting as the cook was serving them their food. "So what is this occasion about?" Viv

    She fell on her knees with her lips shaking uncomfortably with her body as well."What's going on?" She found herself whispering the words. What happened to her voice?.The king stood up slowly with a sigh. "I was actually expecting you to remain calm."Her face clearly showed the state of confusion she was in. "What's happening to me?" She said, her voice raspy and low."Nothing critical, just something to keep you calm until I am done talking."She swallowed the lump in her throat deeply and painfully. What did he mean by that?"You see, I actually thought that I'd found the one the minute I laid my eyes on you but you proved me otherwise." He said, stalking towards her. She took a deep breath to calm her rising heart."Did you for a moment think about me the same way?" He asked her as he glanced down at her, making her feel vulnerable and small in front of him."I actually hoped that you did because I did and I was like a confused man during those moments. Look at me Vivian, I'm a

    "I don't really know what happened. I just heard an explosion.""It surely didn't come from her," he said and looked around. "Something just is going on," he walked towards her."Do you know anything about this?" He asked her with a frown that made her freeze on her spot."Nothing. Everything's fine, sir," she reassured him, wiping the tears from her cheek."You better be." he grumbled angrily as he headed back down the hallway.Jasmine gazed at the space where he stood only moments ago. Her heart ached in an excruciating manner. She never wanted what she did to earn such hate from everybody.She sat back on the floor, feeling exhausted. "What wrong have I done?"

    He stared at her, searching for something. "Can we talk about this another time, Vivian?" He pleaded and she nodded, agreeing with him without saying anything."I'll go and prepare some tea for us," she said with a smile.He smiled back. "Thank you." And turned his back to her walking away from the door. She watched him leave and sighed in relief. That was not an easy conversation she had. She still didn't understand what he wanted from her and was getting annoyed with every passing moment.---After taking the tray of tea and placing it in front of him, he sipped his tea as she sat next to him. She eyed the tea cautiously and decided to start her interrogation first. "So..."she started."What do you need? What happened?" He interrupted her as if he had been waiting for her to ask that ever since their last encounter.She paused for a second. "Uh...well, about that....I--uh" he cut her off by waving his hand."Whatever it is, spill it or I won't tell you," he demanded sternly and sh

    "You can tell me about your past," she broke the silence after some minutes. "What was your life before you got here?""I can explain everything if you'd like," he responded. "I can even share my history with you so you can know more about me than we already know.""And besides, there's nothing else to talk about because all I know is what you already know," he stated with a shrug which made her laugh. He seemed to have an almost playful attitude about him but he was obviously serious when he was talking and she found herself liking it more and more."Okay," she agreed. Maybe this will open your eyes a little bit to know more about me.""That won't work. I've already learned quite a lot about you in this short time that I've been living in your castle," she answered him. He nodded."But let's try anyway."Vivian nodded and they were both thinking about the story he would tell her. He looked at her with a determined look on his face and he started his story. She listened quietly while

    The King gave me the title of Lord of the throne and I was so happy that I finally had a place where I could feel accepted and loved. I lived like a king. I ruled my people and managed my country as well. I loved being the only ruler of the kingdom, because I didn't rule like a weakling."Silence fell between them again. They just stared at each other as they both had an intense stare at the person they loved the most."And your name?" Vivian asked, breaking the silence.He smiled slightly, showing her a dimple that was hidden by his beard as he rubbed his chin with his fingers, deep in thought. He was wondering whether he should tell her about the war. She didn't need to know about that.But at the same time, he could use the information to his advantage and it was certainly beneficial to know who could protect him in the future. He then turned to look at her."My name is Jason and you can call me whatever nickname you want." He said.She grinned and said, "Okay, but I don't see a re

    Dylan was coming back from a meeting with the elders when he passed through to Sebastain's room. He was just passing by while coming back from the meeting when he overheard Sebastian, ordering a guard to watch Jasmine.'Isn't that Sebastian's voice? What is a palace guard doing in his room at this time?''Sebastain is such a lazy freak that he can't just get things done himself without sending someone to run his own errands, I wonder when he will change. Lazy idiot.' Dylan said to himself as he was passing by but what he heard made him to be more interested in wanting to stop by and listen to their conversations."Yes boss!" The guard replied."Make sure you watch her very well and don't let anyone see you around that area. If you are sure that there is no one watching, you can then bring her to me but make sure no one dares to see you, have I made myself clear?" Sebastian raised his voice at the guard. To his thinking, it was only the both of them in the room that was around the cor

    Anita turned around only to see Dylan and Travis standing there."Guards!" Dylan called angrily. "Cease her and check her room to see if there's anything there. Tomorrow would be set for your punishment."Dylan watched the guards dragging her away as she begged for him to listen to her. "Your Highness, I saw this in her room and many more." Dylan grabbed the letters and only then held information."That woman," he growled angrily."Travis," Jasmine beamed and quickly rushed to hug him. "Oh my God, I'm glad you're okay.""Yeah me too," he hugged her back. She pulled back and turned to Andrew. "You look okay as well, though as if you had a heart attack?" She teased and he smiled at her."Believe me when I say I never thought a heart attack would come in handy." He winked and she laughed.The rest were confused by their interaction but Jasmine and Andrew understood each other. She turned next to see Janice which made her smile widen."Janice, I've missed you.

    "Who are you?" The king asked angrily.His aunt shifted closer to the king to whisper into his ears. The king's eyes widened in surprise."Oh so you're Dylan, my rival. I never knew I would be having you here tonight if not I could've been expecting your presence. But nothing has gone wrong and I think it would be wise if I give you the honor to serve the king which most servants find hard."Dylan knew better that he was mocking him and he wasn't surprised when the king signaled the servants to bring in drinks."Let him serve the king," the king laughed devilishly. Dylan clenched his fists when the guard offered him drinks to hold up for the king. His aunt smirked at him.So this was where she was all this while. He should've known better than to expect anything less from that family. Just remembering everything that he got to know from Sebastian made him boil but he held it in.Dylan bore the humiliation until he was done being a slave under the king.

    Dylan felt restless and he felt the need to talk to someone, anyone in particular. He stood and found himself walking to the dungeon only to hear a sound coming from close by.He paid close attention and rushed over when he saw a guard struggling with blood all over him."What happened?""A... Attack. We're under attack," he struggled to say. Dylan looked close and saw the stabbed wound on his chest. He stood up and rushed over to where he believed Andrew was but no one was there. He became worried she quickly rushed to Jasmine's room but it was also empty. "No!" He screamed as his heart beat in his ears loudly."This can't be happening," he said while fidgeting in the room. What is going on? His rival was fast enough or maybe he was distracted instead."I see everything seems to be a shock to you," he heard a familiar voice from close by."Sebastian," he spat angrily as he turned around."I wasn't expecting you to find out this way, in fact, I wasn't expecting you to find out at al

    Dylan's eyes scanning the crowd before him. The people had gathered in the main square, eager to hear what their leader had to say. They whispered amongst themselves, wondering what this urgent announcement could be about."Dylan, Dylan, Dylan!" they chanted, as he raised his hands for silence."Everyone," Dylan began, his voice carrying across the square. "Today, I stand before you with a heavy heart. It has come to my attention that one of our own has betrayed us. One of our own has been stolen from the kingdom's treasury."The crowd gasped, their eyes widening in shock and disbelief."I speak of none other than my own friend, Travis," Dylan continued, his voice trembling with emotion. "He has been banished from this kingdom, never to return."The crowd erupted into a mixture of cheers and jeers. Some were happy to see justice being served, while others were outraged at the banishment of one of their own.Dylan continued to speak, his voice growing louder and more forceful. "I assu

    Dylan sent her away after and she dragged herself away from him. Dylan paced around his room and he found it rather unsettling with her calm and silent she was. What was going on with her?He shook his head and decided to go and check on things himself. He also needed to go to the meeting with the elders concerning the war. He went off to the place and was startled to see the guards already there and waiting for him."What is going on?" He asked them with a frown."There's something you need to know, alpha," they said immediately as he sat down."What is that?" He asked with a creased face."We found out that someone is stealing from us."He furrowed his brows. "Who could that can?""Well, before your return Travis wanted to keep everything safe so for that reason he decided to keep things under his watch and that means taking in some things is his responsibility.""He took the royal guard for example until you returned before he gave them back to you.

    Dylan was stunned by the news he just got. He was already feeling guilty for locking Jasmine up and he was already regretting everything he did but he tried not to let it disturb him. Yet he had this feeling like she failed her and he needed her to trust him.He sighed and looked around the room in frustration. He couldn't even trust her and yet here he was bothering her after all the lies she told him. However, he felt alone and needed her by his side. He suddenly felt like she should be worth him and not far from him.What was he going to do? He felt lost and he needed advice but had no one to meet.

    She took in deep breaths as she stared through the door and watched as they all walked around. She felt relieved but at the same time bothered by their presence, just needed to escape."So what is the plan?" She heard his voice from behind her."What else than to make sure we get out of here." She immediately crouched to his level. "I think it's best if we act it up, like act as if you're having a heart attack or something.""Would that work? I mean there is a higher possibility that it won't work at all.""Well we have no other option but to try." She revealed and sighed. "I just want to leave this place before it's too late," she replied."How can you do that?" "Simply by act, exactly what I just told you. That would be the simplest way out of here and you know I'm telling the truth.""I guess you're correct but I think guards wouldn't fall for such tricks immediately.""Then it's our job to make them fall.

    "Hello…" She called him but he refused to speak to her or even turn to look at her."Aren't you… aren't you the physician who treated me?" Jasmine asked as she approached him and began to speak to him.After hearing that, he turned his eyes but didn't turn to look at her."What are you doing here sir? Did Sebastian send you here after he got stabbed or who did?" Jasmine asked him and on hearing that, Andrew turned to look at who was talking to him."You….I recognize you. Why are you here? Who brought you here?" Andrew asked her as soon as he saw Jasmine and recognized her."It was not a funny experience sir. I got kidnapped and ended up here." Jasmine replied simply."And no one has come to save you?" He asked in surprise."Yes, no one did and I even doubt if anyone even knows that I went missing." She replied again."And how is what you are saying even possible? Was Dylan the one that put you here? What did you do to him for him to keep you here ?" He asked her but she just sighed."

    She leaned against the cool surface and waited for the dizziness to subside. That smell... She remembered it somewhere but couldn't put her finger on it. Her eyes focused on the wall again and she realized that it was getting lighter. She looked around cautiously but everything seemed normal.Nothing was out of place and the floor was covered by the carpet. Everything looked exactly the same. Except for the feeling in the air. It felt thick and oppressive but at the same time warm and comfortable.The strange scent began to disappear when a bright light appeared.No shadows. No dark shapes. Just light. It was definitely coming from the windows, which were open. How did it get open without opening it first? The only explanation was that somebody opened it. Or perhaps... she thought as a shiver ran through her. The smell was getting stronger. She closed her eyes and concentrated on listening closely.Except that the smell continued, stronger and stronger. Was that what she smelled ear
