Contractually Yours, Alpha by Giftemmy

Chapter One Hundred and Forty One

I always thought something was off that night; I had been surprised to discover that Beatrix had tried to save me; it felt so bizarre, and I was right to suspect her, even after her ‘good deed

I was not exactly disappointed; I’ve seen and heard more shocking things; at this point, I didn’t think anything could surprise me anymore

There must be a reason why she saw the need to expose herself.

“I changed my mind; I swear, I knew it was all wrong and so I tried to make things right.” Beatrix stated.

“Since when did Beatrix care about what was wrong or right?” Axel asked, “There must have been a discovery, right?, Thane is about to discover the truth, so you choose to make the wise step of confessing before then, just so you could be seen as ‘less‘ guilty.”

“So I guess you are… sorry?” I questioned sarcastically.

“No. I would not pretend that I am sorry for all I did; it is just that I do not see the need to keep fighting you for your title.”

“Amusing, Beatrix had given up on fighting for my title–not that she ever had a claim on it- but at least, I have one less person to battle with; let’s celebrate, shall we?” I mocked.

“I have not given up, rather, I am waiting. He does feel something for you, I can tell now, but it would only last for a while, and after that, that’s it. Then guess where I would be then?, I would be at Thane side, picking up the pieces and slowly taking back what rightfully belongs

to me.‘

“That is the saddest thing I have ever heard. Good luck waiting.”

“Mark my words, Queen, the time is coming.”
