Chapter 85After a long night of various talks with Lena and sleeping late, Stacey finally woke up the next day. She hurried to dress up as she didn’t want to miss her training. She and the priestess were making progress, and for some reason that she herself had no idea of, she wanted to be able to control her power.“At least I might be able to use it to destroy that lady.” She muttered, brushing her hair and packing it together before making her way outside.She closed her door and turned to start walking when she met Ronan's eyes, he was also just coming out of his room. She stood rooted to the ground, staring at him as he did the same. Finally he averted his gaze away, making her look at the ground in embarrassment before clearing her throat.“Good morning” they both said together, making Stacey smile a bit.“Hope you slept well?” Ronan inquired after.She looked up at him and nodded before opening her mouth to talk. “Hope you slept well too? And you had no disturbance and all of t
Chapter 86“Why the heck are you here, Trish?” Ronan asked, running his hand through his hair.“The heck… how did you survive? How did you even make it? Why did you come back here, Trish?” “Calm down baby boy. I’m the one who’s supposed to be scared and not you. Why is it looking the opposite way around?” She said calmly.Ronan stopped pacing back and forth, halting to look at her as he scoffed.“You think I’m scared for me?” He asked before laughing.“I’m scared for you, Trish. Because whatever you want to do here, it’s not going to work. And who knows, you might really end up dead this time.”Trish's face turned into a frown, pressing her lips together as she stared at him. “Now you’re finally giving the kind of Ronan I expected. “Why are you here?” Ronan questioned again.She sighed, crossing her leg on the chair she sat down on. Her eyes scanned the whole room as a smile emerged on her lips.“Do you remember those times? Just me and you, and me being the Luna of the pack. You wou
Chapter 87Ronan got to the table, surprised to see Trish and Stacey seated opposite each other. Although they were not having any conversation, it still looked weird to see them together there.“Ahh. The alpha is here.” Trish muttered with a smile.Ronan felt his insides churn up at her smile, even after the threat he made to her, she still had the effrontery to smile at him and act like everything was good between them. How delusional can she go?His eyes went to Stacey who didn’t bother to look up at him. He clenched his jaw, making his way to his chair as the maids came to serve him. “So Stacey, how did you get here? Did he help you from your father or what?” Trish asked halfway into the food.Stacey didn’t bother to reply her, eating her food like she was the only one on the table. Trish gritted her teeth. One thing she hated most is when someone tries to act smug or play smart on her, it annoyed her to her bone.“You don’t really like talking, do you?”“I was taught table manne
Chapter 88“You’re hurting me Ronan, you’re hurting me. Stop pulling me like that.” Stacey complained, trying to peel his hand away from her arm.He pretended not to hear her, dragging her all the way until they reached his room. He put her on the chair before going back to the door and turning the lock on it. Stacey eyed him as she massaged her wrist, her face deepened into a scowl.“I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry.” Ronan started, running his hand through his hair.He took another chair and sat opposite her, placing his elbow on his lap and resting his head on it.“How are you?”Stacey eyed him, her brows knitted in confusion as she squinted her eyes.“Are you okay?” She asked back.“Yes. Yes I am. How are you? How have you been?”“You’re not okay. Did she say something that has affected you or what? Why are you acting like this?” Stacey questioned.Ronan lips curled into a smile as he leaned back to his chair, crossing his legs as he stared at her.“Aren’t you curious about who she is?
Chapter 89“You must be crazy thinking I’ll do that? Are you out of your mind!”“I’m stating the options you have. It’s your choice to pick one. Either you go with turning into a rogue or you get killed. Pick your choice.”Janiya’s eyes widened more, not wanting to believe anything he just said.“I’m your mate Eric! How dare you do this!” She yelled out like a maniac.A deep throaty laughter escaped Eric’s lips, looking everywhere in the passage before looking back at her with raised brow,“Repeat that please.”“I’m your mate! Not to talk of, my father took you out of the shambles and turned you into someone who can now talk in different places and this, this is how you’re treating me!” She shouted again.“Was I your mate when everything you could think of is Ronan? Was I your mate when you sent me on errands and talked to me like I was just that low-life man? Was I your mate all those times when I can’t even touch you!” He snapped back at her.He gritted his teeth together with a dev
Chapter 90Eric stormed into Ronan’s room, not bothering to knock as he twisted the door knob, opening the door and stopping in his tracks immediately. Both Ronan and Stacey disengaged from the hug, Stacey lowering her head as she blushed profusely.“I’m so sorry.” Eric said, turning back to leave when Ronan called him back.“It’s fine. Next time, know how to knock first.” Ronan retorted before looking at stacey.“Go for your training. I’ll talk to you later.” Ronan said.He leaned close to her, placing his lips on her cheeks as Stacey’s eyes widened. She nodded immediately, rushing out and making sure she didn’t make eye contact with Eric. Eric's lips curled into a smile as he watched her go before locking the door.“Why didn’t you knock?” Ronan asked afterwards.“I didn’t expect the both of you to be standing in the middle of the room, and even so, you could have locked the door.”“I did. She was about to leave, so she unlocked it. Then I pulled her into a hug, and you came in..” he
Chapter 91“Come in.” Ronan answered, both his and Eric’s eyes on the door.The door opened as Trish entered, Eric’s eyes widening in shock. He sat up on the chair, closing his eyes and opening it again to be sure of who he was seeing.“Eric.” Trish called out with a smile on her lips, closing the door as she walked towards the table.She pulled the other chair out and took her seat, tucking her hair in at the back of her ear before darting her eyes back and forth between the both of them.“Is this really you, Trish?” Eric said out, glancing at her in surprise.A small smile formed on her lips as she met his eyes, “what? Are you surprised to see me after all the torture you put me through? Or are you just so happy to see me?” “No. No. I’m just surprised you’re even alive and talking well.”Eric retorted.She laughed out, her eyes returning to Ronan who kept on doing what he was doing.“I’ve not seen Janiya anywhere since I got back. Is something going on or what?”Ronan stopped at he
Chapter 92“Good afternoon priestess.” Lena greeted as she entered the room, her eyes going straight to Stacey who was meditating.Her face was covered in sweats, and she was breathing heavily already. “What’s going on with her?” Lena asked with raised brows. “She’s trying to relive the memories of her past.” The priestess replied.Stacey’s eyes opened all of a sudden, standing up and rushing to the toilet. She came back after a few minutes, freshened up before meeting Lena’s eyes.“You’re here.”She said and walked towards her.“How are you feeling Stacey?” The priestess asked.“Better.” She replied before pulling Lena outside the door.“So this is what you do all day? Remember the bad memories and try to get comfortable with them?” “Technically yes. In another way, I’m learning that they all happened already and I should not let them get to me anymore.” She retorted, their hands rocking back and forth in the air.“That’s nice.” Lena nodded as she said.“So tell me everything, what
