I teleported straight to Draven Kingdom my whole heart beating faster than it ever had.
Ryvessa was in huge trouble, and I was the one at fault.
I got to the palace and met the devil himself...the bastard who had Ryvessa.
“Long time no see, best pal,” he grinned.
“I’m not here for sentiment, Draven. Where’s she?”
“Who are you searching for, Your Highness… or should I say thief?”
I smirked. “Is she in or not? I’m not here for you. When I come for you, you’re gonna die. But right now...give me what’s mine.”
“Look at the fool who speaks of death.
You think because you have my powers, you can kill me? I’m a hybrid, you fool, or should I say tybrid!”
“Do I look like I give a f**k? You can even turn into a snake. I don’t f*****g care.
Where the hell did you keep her?”
“Why are you worried about her? Huh? Who’s she to you, Drexel?”
“She’s my captive. I need to kill her. You killing her will make me look less.”
“You two are such fools. You both want to kill yourselves yet you live together like you don’t know!”
“Well, I’ve released her, but I have her on an assignment to carry out. Watch out, Drexel.
I’m not who you think I am anymore. I’ve changed. I’m back and I’m ready for full revenge.”
“Bring it on. Let it be as you’ve said. And when I kill you, Draven, I’ll make sure your pack sees your skull, you dumb rogue.”
I hissed and left his sight, teleporting back to VDK.
My room, to be precise.
I met Ryvessa on the bed with a maid beside her.
The maid bowed and went out, leaving only the two of us.
She was taking some herb. I didn’t even know what to say. I was just… shy to speak.
Like a whole Drexel? A whole me who ladies can’t even look in the face properly? Ryvessa is messing slowly with my whole body system.
With her expression, it showed she didn’t want to talk to me.
“Hey,” I muttered. “Are you okay?”
She didn’t reply. She kept sipping the herb like I was invisible to her.
She set the cup on the table stand.
“I’m going back to Las Vegas tomorrow.
And I’m going back to my normal life. I don’t want anything to do with you...or anything related to your life.”
My jaw clenched, but I said nothing.
“And don’t come look for me, Drexel.
We would act like we never knew each other. I’m gonna tell them that I can’t arrest you at the station.
Whatever we both had for each other should die, now. I mean this instant.
I don’t want to be involved in your life. Your life is ruthless and dangerous.”
She kept talking. Then I muttered, “Are you done, Ryv?”
“What the hell do you mean by ‘are you done’? You think I’m kinda joking here, Drexel? You think I love what I’m passing through?
I vowed to give my virginity to the one who’s going to be my forever, and I foolishly gave it out because of a stupid job..the job of arresting you?
You said you’re powerful, huh? I’ve been mind-linking you all those while that that bastard captured me!
Did you come? Did you save me? No! Because you don’t care.
Because I’m just your toy. You never even loved me! Do you think I’m some kind of fool? Huh...why have you been lying to me all this while?
And why is that man saying I’m also his mate?
I had to beg him to let me go? Because you were late! My dress was soaked on period yet the foolish bond that you said makes our feelings known to each other! Where were you when my cramps were heating up?
Of course you were with the woman who has been with you for 16 years. I’m no fool, Drexel.
We were just fooling ourselves with affection. I rushed things.
The whole fault was from me! Why did I ever think of that stupid seduction move? Why!”
“Stop, Ryvessa. Stop...you’re hurting me,” I roared. “Do you know how your words are piercing me through my heart?
I’ve been f*****g around, messing around with ladies for sixteen years, Ryv.
Do you know the kind of impact you brought to my life? Do you? You think I don’t care about you?
Because I never show it? I would admit the fact that I’m late, and that I’m not powerful...because my real powers are tied to my mate.
The powers in me aren’t mine! You’ve a freaking twin who hid your power..that’s the person I’ve been searching for!
If your powers could be removed, I would have my powers back. I’ve never loved anyone the way I love you, Vessa.
I don’t know what you did to me. I love you, Vessa. I do.
Please, you came for a reason! The real reason wasn’t to arrest me, Ryv.
The real reason was to be by me the true love that I’ve been waiting for!”
“True love, you said?” She smirked.
“I’ve only 16 days, Drexel...to report to that bastard who your mate is.
He needed your mate so he can claim his power and kill the mate.
Now tell me...who’s your mate? Who does he want to kill? Me, of course. Me being in your life has been a risk.
Everyone close to you wants to kill me. Today, right this time, Valerian don’t ever call me your mate.
After tomorrow, I’ve no freaking business with you in this life. Whatever happens to your life is none of my business.
I can’t and I won’t be your mate. Good night.
Don’t forget...whatever you can do for me to leave tomorrow, do it ASAP.”
She turned away from me, pulling the covers over herself like I no longer existed.
I stood there, frozen.
The bond screamed in my chest, sharp, broken, bleeding.
She was shutting me out.
She was leaving.
And she had 16 days before Draven tracker pulled her back to him.
I clenched my fists until my claws drew blood.
She thought I didn’t care.
She thought I was late on purpose.
She thought I was still tied to Alisha.
She was wrong.
But how do I prove it when the woman I love is looking at me like I’m the enemy?
I walked out of the room...quiet, controlled, deadly calm on the outside.
Inside?
I was already burning.
Draven wanted her to spy on me.
He wanted her to report who my mate is.
He wanted to kill her once he had his powers back.
I’d burn the world before I let Draven touch her again.
And if she walked away tomorrow…
I’d follow her. I’d beg, I'd bleed, I’d kill.
Because she was mine.
And I was hers.
Even if she hated me for it.
