2024-10-29 19:42:56Selena's blatant alarm clock did not spare her a few minutes to sleep further. Once it was seven in the morning, the noisy ringtone began to scream at the phone's last volume through the speaker, and it had her tossing and turning in bed.
She had set it the previous night to wake her up at seven o'clock for work since she was laying in bed at an early hour at that time. But Selena never expected that she would spend the hours that she intended for sleeping purposes on sobbing into her pillow over her and Gabriel's argument.
The six rings caused Selena to angrily removed the quilt off her and had her out of bed.
"I wish I had one more hour of sleep, but my enemies are not sleeping at this moment, and I am not going to do the opposite." Selena mumbled as she scratched her hair and walked towards the bathroom.
She stepped onto the cold tiles as she approached the bathtub. Without a second choice between

He then focused on the faces of the news crew before stepping out of the car."Who is that?" A male reporter asked."He looks like Ace." Another person said."Our former leader was an extremely handsome man, but I don't think he's invisible to aging. That boy is too young to be Ace." The camera guy stated."Yeah. Also, wasn't Ace reported to be dead?" A journalist questioned her colleagues."But we all know that no bodies got found, and there are still workers taking care of the mansion.

It was nine o'clock when Gabriel came back to the villa. He had spent his entire day catching up on office work and other business-related stuff.His side was in pain because of his wound, but he did not show it on his face. Instead, he walked into his house with the same predominant expression he always has on."Welcome back, sir." The workers greeted.He walked past them with Bob beside him and headed to the dining room to get something to eat before going upstairs to rest.The moment Gabriel took his seat and the maid served him his food, he noticed that the dishes were untouched. He knew that Selena was already home because Mathew had informed him about her every move. So it bothered him that she had not had dinner."Where is Selena?" Gabriel asked as he stared at the faces of his maids."Sir, once madam reached home, she went upstairs to her room and has not come down yet." Lily replied.'What's wrong with you again, Omega?'

Gabriel's eyes slowly opened when he heard his phone buzzing on the nightstand. He looked to the left and saw Selena peacefully sleeping beside him."How long did you stay up to take care of me, omega? Anyway, I should be thankful to you since it is because of you that my fever is gone." Gabriel mumbled.He then smiled at how attractive Selena's sleeping face was before getting out of bed and taking his phone into the bathroom to avoid disturbing her."Sorry for interrupting your sleep, sir." Guss's voice echoed through the phone speaker."What is it, Guss?" Gabriel asked."Well, we have found multiple hideouts for the black dragon gang like you ask.

Then within a few seconds, she looked back at Zac."Your five minutes are up. You can leave now." Selena said.Zac folded his hand in a fist out of anger, yet he kept a gentle expression and a crooked smile on his face."Selena, please hear me out!" Zac pleaded.Selena leaned back in her seat, then stared at the broken image of a man she once loved, and at that moment, she pitied who she once was."I have given you the minutes you needed and also listened to enough of what you have to say. I think you should leave. We are not getting back together. It won't happen now, and it's never going to happen!" Selena calmly stated.However, Zac did

Selena thought before she lazily stepped out of the car with tiredness in her eyes and headed into the villa.Lily and the other maids noticed the bruise mark on her arms, but they dare not ask any question about it."Good evening, madam. Dinner is ready." Lily announced with a gentle smile on her face."I don't have the energy to eat anything right now." Selena said."But madam.

"I can't believe he left the villa again before I woke up. Today makes it the second day that he has left the house at such an early hour. I wondered what he's doing after he leaves the villa? I could ask, but stupid alpha won't answer even if I question him with tears in my eyes." Selena thought.She stood by her office window, admiring the stunning view that the tall height of the Adler's building presented to her."Madam, there's a lady named Jin outside, causing a scene and demanding to see you." Mathew said after he had entered Selena's office and shut the door behind him."Why do all these fools love ruining my morning?

Selena lashed out.Mathew stood silent and waited for her to finish complaining.

He knew that something about his boss's attitude was off, and the fact Gabriel was distracted made Guss quite worried since he knew that Dakar was not a normal creature, and if his young master was about to fight him, then he needed to be a hundred percent focused. “Stop the car!” Gabriel shouted with intense fear in his eyes. “What is it, boss?” Guss asked in confusion. “Turn the car around!” “What?” “Turn the damn car around now!” From the force in Gabriel's voice, Guss knew not to ask any questions.

What are you talking about?”“Wait. You really don't remember a thing?”Selena gazed at Gabriel with confusion in her eyes. Then she tried to sit up.“Ahh! Why does my body hurt this much?” Selena mumbled.“You really don't remember falling off the edge of a twelve story building?” Gabriel asked.“No. All I can recall is Mila explaining a bunch of stories to me before injecting me with yellow fluid, then everything became blank in my head.”

“It has been five months and three weeks since the terror that took place at JC hospital. The country is still bleeding from such a monstrous happening.”Selena frowned as she stared at the news lady on the tv screen.“I told you not to watch the news. It will just make you moody.” Gabriel said.Selena faintly smiled as she stared at her husband, laying beside her on the bed. Then she turned her attention back to the television.“The past months have been difficult as we wait for the elders and our leaders to shine some light on the situation.
