Wolves and Daggers

Chapter Eleven

Lia’s POV

I couldn’t sleep peacefully the previous night as I kept on pondering hard. I felt there were a lot of unanswered questions In my head that kept bothering me.

I just wanted to know a lot of things and I felt somehow indifferent towards him. I kept staring at him as he slept the previous night with my unanswered questions lingering around my mind.

Why didn’t he tell me? Or didn’t he think it was important? At least he would have said something I never really did ask. I was so stupid.

He was an Alpha and he was all alone with me here acting like he was a normal person when he wasn’t. I didn’t mean him treating me anyhow but at the same time I meant it.

The order and fierce personality Alphas have was always in him but I was too carried away to even notice it. The way he spoke, the way he talked and everything about him was majestic.

How didn’t I pay attention to all that obvious information that was placed in front of me? I was so ignorant, and I remember telling myself he was probably from a noble family and that was why he was majestic.

But in reality, it turned out he was a leader and not any type of leader of any low cadre, he was an Alpha and a real-life Alpha.

I didn’t know if I was too excited or if it was just the shock of the discovery that made me this hyped up. I mean I already found out before he eventually told me the truth but it took me long enough.

My thoughts weren’t aligning and I just wanted answers and knew what was going on. Why was he here? Why didn't tell me his position? And why was he out here all alone?

The questions in my head were going to remain unanswered until he answered them himself and right now he was asleep. He already told me to go to bed and we’ll talk tomorrow but I found it so difficult to just sleep.

I knew he was going to tell me everything tomorrow and I couldn’t wait till then I wondered what type of excuse he might have for not coming out with his guards.

I mean if I was anywhere in such a position of luxury I'd come out my guards for safety but he didn’t, one would almost mistake him for a hunter at first sight.

Łîttłe would they know that he was an Alpha? I finally got lost in thoughts and I was slowly drifting into sleep. I knew all my questions would be answered tomorrow and all I had to do was be patient.

I looked at his face and stared at it in wonder and just when I thought he opened his eyes, I slept off finally dozing off.

I finally woke up the next morning and I looked around trying to remember where I was. My head was blank for a while as I stared around keenly trying to remember my environment.

Where was I? And how did I get here? The Coke morning breeze that calmed my nerves finally snapped me back to reality to remember that he wasn't beside me anymore.

I looked deeply to be sure he wasn’t beside me anymore and I stood up alerted. I searched keenly to be sure he was around before I started panicking.

He wasn’t here anymore.

“Silas?” I called out but there was no response as I looked around sharply.

I didn’t know the danger that lurked around here and when he was here I didn’t have the time to think about all that. When did he leave exactly? And why didn’t he tell me anything?

At least I was right here and was that why he asked me to go to sleep? So he’ll be able to leave here without me knowing? Was it because of what I found out? Wasn’t I supposed to know?

The questions in my head were unanswered causing my head to pound and ache badly.

I kept on looking around and I started preparing my mind for the fact that he might have gone.

But did I do anything? He didn’t seem annoyed at me or anything so why this? I felt somewhat betrayed because I thought we were going to journey together.

Did he think I’d judge him or something? Or wasn’t I supposed to know what I found out? But I didn’t do anything extreme and I only reacted the way any other person would have.

I mean I was shocked and I didn’t know exactly how to react.

I looked around and I was finally certain that he wasn’t coming back. I didn’t know what to do exactly so I just went baby to the tree where I slept.

I sat down there and I pondered on last night and the occurrences to be sure I didn’t do anything. I remember him falling asleep in front of him as I stared at him till I fell asleep too.

Nothing happened that I could remember so why?

I stared at the tree for a while and I could picture him sitting there. Just as I was dozing off I heard a familiar tone call out to me. I shut my eyes because I firsthand thought it was my imagination playing games with me.

“Lia.” I heard the familiar tone call out again.

I didn’t want to believe it was him, he was gone he couldn’t be the one.

I fought with my thoughts and I finally opened my eyes and I was shocked to see Silas standing In Front of me.

“You’re here? You’re back?” I said in excitement and I didn’t realize when I hugged him. I finally regained my composure and moved back from him and he just smiled.

“What’s up with you?” He asked indifferently.

“Nothing, I just thought… I thought…”

“Thought what?”

“I thought you left me.”
