Chapter 23

“I don’t need anything, Ivan.” I said, opening the door when I caught Ivan’s scent by it.

The fact that he had it in him to come and check on me was something that I was thankful for. Hell, I did wish at times that it was Dimitri who came, but I knew better than to hope on false dreams that would never occur. At least I knew that the beta might have been genuine toward me, to some extend, with what he was doing.

The maids were all outside as I refused to see anyone, and the fact that the beta was here himself told me that he did not plan on taking no for an answer. But right now, I just needed to be left alone and that was something that he didn’t seem to understand.

“I did not come to ask whether or not you needed anything. I came here. to ask why there are four maids, who were assigned to ensure that everything that you had was tended to, are outside the bedroom door the way that they are?” He asked, and I opened the door wider for him to come inside the room. He frowned at the sight of the blanket that was on the floor where I was curled up in front of my bed.

“I wanted to sit in this place, by myself, without anyone bothering or disturbing me.” I said, and he took a deep breath. “They would have, asked questions or called you, and that is not something that I wanted.”

At this point, I just wanted to be alone. I didn’t want to see nor did I want to speak to anyone. It was the idea of being alone that made me want to rest because I knew that otherwise, I was going to end up losing more than I can afford of my own mental state,

he took a step back and walked out of the room. He closed the bedroom door, and I took a deep breath before sitting on the floor, fighting off the anger that I felt and my aching chest. They were literally blaming me for being upset that the man that I was supposed to be with, the man who was supposed to be my mate, and the man that I was supposed to try and be with was the same man who was cheating on me, and not only that, he was doing it right in front of me.
