Chapter 153Ronan lowered his gaze, his fist curled up into a ball and his teeth being gritted together.“Stacey..“What exactly do you want to hear Ronan? That I had sex with him? That I was in his bed while he put on a show of people that made me horny! That all my scars are gone thanks to him? Tell me, why didn’t you leave me there?”“You went to his room on purpose Stacey. You thought you could change everything. You wanted to make a stupid deal and you went there! Tell me! Just for what! For what exactly!” He yelled to her face.Stacey relaxed, gulping down as she stared at him. Tears threatened to start forming but she looked up, trying to stop it from swelling in her eyes.“I don’t know what to tell you Ronan, I really don’t know what you want to hear.”“Say something tangible Stacey. That’s all I want to hear! What did you do with Lucien! What did you do with him! Is that so hard for you to say!”“Yes Ronan, because I can’t remember anything that happened to him. So yes.” She
Chapter 154The relationship between Stacey and Ronan was getting rockier. Stacey moved to her room, deciding not to say anything more to ronan. She was exhausted, trying to get to him or talk when he didn’t want to have anything with her. Ronan stayed in his room too, having the elders meeting and also meeting with alphas with no interaction with his mate. Stacey has just finished dressing up that morning, feeling in high spirits for something she had no idea about. She has woken up, accepted her new body, taken her bath and dressed pretty. She has been indoors for most of the days, crying herself to sleep and now decided she didn’t have to continue. A knock on the door interrupted her when she was almost done.“Come in.” She said, The door opened as Lena entered, a big smile on her face as she stretched out some big pair of earrings. Stacey’s face remained the same, not looking happier or looking excited to see her.“Hey..what’s wrong?” Lena asked as she closed the door.Stacey ma
Chapter 155Stacey sat down on the table to have breakfast, savoring each bite as she took it. Her mind was free of worries, it was as if she was now living in a new world, a world that was hers and hers alone. The door opened as she looked up to meet Ronan walking in. Her hand halted in mid air as he stopped in his tracks too. For days now they’ve not seen each other, or talked to each other. She lowered her gaze back to her food and continued eating but her heart was now beating rapidly against her chest. He sat down opposite her, eating in silence as the maids started to serve him. She didn’t rush herself, or even glance up to make conversation with him. He did the same too, focusing on his food without looking up at her. Immediately Stacey finished eating, she drank her water, wiped her mouth and stood up. “Are you not going to say anything to me?” He said, stopping her in her tracks.Stacey sighed down, turning back to face Ronan and bowing.“I’m sorry, your highness. Is there
Chapter 156“What? What do you mean?” Lucien asked, his brows furrowed as he caught up with Stacey.Glancing at the hand on her arm, she looked up at him as he immediately released her, taking some step back away from her.“What do you mean by Lena telling Lucien about everything?”“You should ask her. Not me. Am I not the one having sex with him? Do you think you would want to tell me something like that?” She said, eyeing him annoyingly before walking out of the place. Ronan watched her leave, his head in turmoil. He chased after Stacey, blocking her way to pass.“I’m sorry, okay. I’m so sorry for pushing you away. I’m so sorry for not believing you. I’m sorry for the words I said to you. I was just angry that Lucien had the right to touch you.“He didn’t even touch me! We didn’t do anything! I’m just remembering that it was his priestess that touched me, taking the scars off and he just stood there.”“But still he saw you, he saw you naked stacey.”Stacey smiled, looking away from
Chapter 157Lena opened her eyes to darkness, sweats laced on her forehead as she tried to find light in the darkness. She sat up, trying to reach out to the bed lamp beside her and managing to turn it on. A yawn escaped her lips, finding out that she was the only one inside. Groaning, she fell back to the bed with her eyes staring wide at the ceiling.For the past days, she has been feeling down, recalling all the things she did back when she was young and feeling guilty for it. And not to talk, Stacey now knows that she’s feeding Lucien with information. She closed her eyes and clenched her jaw, not sure of what to think of herself. Was she more a betrayer? Or even someone worser than that as she was selling her family out? She climbed down after a while and had just taken the first step towards the door when the door opened, revealingvdtacey with a tray. She halted in her tracks, Stacey doing the same too as their gaze remained firm on each other for a moment. After a while, Stacey
Chapter 158“We need to watch her everytime. We need to make sure she’s not alone. Her thoughts are getting suicidal.” Stacey said, pacing back and forth in front of Ronan.Immediately she said her last words, she had been unable to refute it, leaving her dumbfounded and eventually Lena had required for her space.“What exactly did she say?”Stacey stopped and turned to face Ronan, her eyes widened, “she said, she doesn’t even know whether to die or to live. She said she’s caught in between the two.”“And why do you think it’s suicidal? What if she’s just been paranoid?”“Because Ronan, I’ve been there and I know how it feels to be caught between trying to live or trying to die.” Stacey retorted. Ronan sighed in, lost for words. He massaged his forehead, running his hand through his hair as he tried to figure what to do.“Do you think we need to call Lucien and sit with him?”“For what?”“He’s the one that’s clearly affecting her. Maybe if we sit him down, find a way to break the mate
Chapter 159“Your highness. They’re here already.” A guard came to tell Ronan inside the room.Nodding at him, he closed the door and returned to the bed, kissing Stacey on her lips as he stared into her eyes.“So what do you suggest we do now?” He asked.Stacey sighed. It was very fast for them to get here which means immediately they got the letter, they started coming or didn’t waste any time to ponder about it.“Set up a meeting. Question him. Ask what he wants and finally bring Lena in.” Stacey retorted.“Then we better get started,” Ronan retorted, slapping her butt cheeks as she stood up from the bed. The both of them entered the bathroom together, taking their shower amidst goggles and chuckles. Ronan was the first to bathe her, his eyes roaming around her no scar body and hoping to bend her to have sex with her. “Stop it. We don’t have much time.” Stacey cut him off, turning to bathe him too.Ronan was the first to dress up, leaving the room for Stacey as the maids entered t
Chapter 160“Ronan…“Go to your room, Lena. And stay there until I call you.”Lena’s face was crumpled into a frown, her fist balled up as she glared at Ronan. Ronan’s new guards stepped out, holding her lightly and pulling her away. Stacey moved towards Ronan, taking his hand in hers.“You were too harsh on her.” She muttered in his ear. “Don’t worry. I’ll call her back.” Ronan replied. Stacey nodded before they all started going to the meeting room. Lucien was seated on one of the chairs but immediately stood up as he saw them enter, a wide smile on his face with his hands at his back. “I’ve been waiting.” He said.Ronan pulled out a chair for Stacey, ignoring him as he took his seat. The two alphas at his back took their seats too before Lucien finally sat down.“I got the scroll.” “We sent it.” Ronan retorted, his face serious. Lucien glanced at all of them, the smile on his face growing wider as he finally settled his eyes on Stacey,“Do you like your new body?” He taunted a
