Destiny

Chapter 20

It's either to endure or fight,

It's either to be silent or scream.

Choices are easy and known,

Yet people are confused.

Nina

Amma is taking her morning bath, giving me an opportunity to speak to Ansh without her knowing. Or she wanted the details if she saw me with him.

Knocking on his door three times, he opened the door and failed to hide his surprised look.

I walked inside to see his temporary room look empty and lifeless.

" Tell me about your treatment at Aruna Pack," I demand, placing my hand on the dressing table as I lean on it. The dressing table is clean as someone just wetted it.

" I was a bastard child of a poor woman. She was a slave to the Alpha family from her first breath to her last. Which is the same to me... I have to serve the Alpha family till I take my last breath," He narrated.

" Didn't you ever be treated as Alpha's child?" I question crossing my arms.

" No... They never publically announced or accepted I'm the firstborn. I was ten when my Cikkam'ma told me the truth," He answered, still looking down at his feet.

Isn't his neck hurting?

" Or maybe he is used to it?" Eve barked.

" Cikkam'ma? Your mom didn't have any siblings," I pointed out, walking to the nearby sofa.

" In my pack, every older generation member is Cikkam'ma and Cikkappa. We live like a big family," He explained with a smile and teary eyes.

" Sorry, I get emotional thinking about my family," He mumbled, wiping his eyes.

I glance at my phone. Amma might come out in ten minutes.

" Tell me about the Alpha, Beta, and Gamma families?" I question crossing my legs.

" They don't like each other but are obligated to work together... The greed and power blinded them to pack members' suffering," He mumbled as he sniffed his nose.

" What kind of suffering you are talking about?" I question, glancing at my phone. I still have time.

" Aruna pack is still the same as back in fifty years ago. As the high-ranked members, it's their duty to make pack progress, but they are only increasing their wealth," Ansh explained, starting to feel nervous.

" Why are you getting scared?" I smirked wickedly.

" Because you are interrogating him like a criminal," 3Ps walked in, patting Ansh's back.

" You don't need to bow," He said and looked back at me.

" On what right are you interfering?" I asked while they shivered due to my aura.

Ansh shivered hard.

" As a friend," 3Ps answered, crossing his arms while Ansh looked back at his feet again.

" Wow, it's been like what... Days and two of you become friends. That's interesting," I muttered as I stood up.

" I'm on a mission, and I don't want this friendship to be an obstacle. So, as a last warning, stay away from my mission," I growled at 3Ps who stood firm in his place.

" Our mission... I am assigned to this mission by Queen Disha," He mumbled, looking right at my eyes.

" But I'm in charge, and my word goes around, so you are not a part of this mission. You never were," I growled loudly fisting my hand tight.

It's the pain from my hand stopping me from shifting and attacking him.

I walked out breathing hard, and I stopped in the middle, remembering about Amma. I walked towards the kitchen and opened the cabinet filled with snack jars.

This time, I took the sweet-looking jar.

Taking the first bite, I hated it. It's too sweet.

I went back to the kitchen to take one of the spicy snack jars. Then I went to sit on the dining chair and quietly started to eat the spicy snack.

" Nina, what are you eating?" Amma asked, walking towards me.

" Snack," I answered, handing out the jar to Amma.

" You should have poured on a bowl first. It's isn't nice," Amma preaches as she eats the snack.

" It doesn't matter," I defended with my mouth full.

" It tastes good," Amma complimented, taking more from the jar. Just like me.

" Aunty, I hope you love my handmade snack," 3Ps cheerfully spoke, spreading his germs like...

"Spread like butter in bread," He chimes in.

Never.

Distract. Distract. Distract.

The female main lead moved to a new city after saving up to leave her small town in an attempt to move on. Eventually, she becomes friends with the side female character who is also her neighbour.

Also, she is a hacker who steals from the mafia boss, unaware of his status. This way, she grabs his attention, so he finds her rather quickly because of his resources. Instead of confronting and punishing her, he chooses to play around with her.

Because of his funny nature, he was able to win her well-guarded heart. But how will they meet?

He could meet her under a false disguise or use his real name but hide his professional.

What if he meets her through the side female characters? So when the female main lead learns about the truth of the love interest. She will be heartbroken and blame her only friend, feeling more hurt.

But she has been through a lot before. For instance, her private video was uploaded by her ex-partner, which made her the black sheep in her childhood village and caused chaos with her family.

So she was alone and lonely in the beginning. Making her situation the same as the beginning won't be interesting.

It's better if the main male character reveals his true intention in the beginning itself.

It could be interesting that he would offer the main female character to pay him back by working for him. He was impressed by her hacking skills.

The main female character tries to call for help, but the police are in the mafia boss's pocket. Making her helpless, which adds fuel to her rage, and she swore to revenge.

" Nina," I looked at Amma.

" Yeah," I mumbled.

" What are you thinking?" She question, looking downward.

My hand is in the empty jar.

" You were trying to find a snack while thinking deeply," Amma laughed, joined by 3Ps.

" Looks like you love it," He taunted, smiling widely.
