Chapter One Hundred and Ten

Chapter One Hundred and Ten

ALEXANDER POV

This was the last place they had been. It was an apartment owned by Aric.

My chest tightened. Had she slept with him here?

I could pick the locks, but I didn’t bother with that, I broke down the door. I was right, she had been here, there was no mistaking it, her scent filled the place and it was fucking intoxicating.

I entered the apartment and searched the rooms. As expected, she was already gone. In the last room, her scent hit me stronger than anywhere else in the house. A few of her clothes were still left in here.

That could only mean one thing–she was coming back. I returned to the living room and stopped when I saw the table. Pictures were scattered across it.

I sat on the couch and looked through the pictures. They were all of the same woman–Cynthia. I knew her. Empress Cynthia.

What the hell did Kaida have to do with this woman?

There were many write–ups and notes too. I read through them all, not caring about the fact that this might be seen as intruding. There was nothing more ‘intruding‘ than breaking into a person’s house.

From what I gathered, they were both making plans on how to sneak into Aureonna City and find the woman named Cynthia. It seems like the plan was to kill her.

I remember how strongly she had convinced me against sending a letter to the Empresses in Aureonna City; now I understood why: she was going to be there, and she didn’t want it coming in the way of her plans.

Fuck.

Someone was coming. I could sense it even from a distance.

It could be Kaida, but even if it wasn’t, I had a good idea of where she would be right now.

I set the pictures back on the table.

*KAIDA POV*

I could tell someone was inside. The door had been broken open.

I drew my gun, pointing it forward, while my dagger remained tucked in my boot. I approached the house, moving as silently as possible. Stepping inside, I entered the living space.

Was I imagining it or did this place scent like him? Maybe I’ve begun missing him way too much that it was playing with my senses.

“Got you.” The voice whispered from behind me, and I turned around, almost dropping my gun in surprise. I thought I was being silent; but he outdid me. I hadn’t even heard him till he made his presence known.

It was Alexander and despite myself and my plans of explaining things to him, I ran into his arms, hugging him tight, drinking in his scent, I had missed him so much. He didn’t move or attempt to hug me back.

“Alexander… I’m sorry.”

sorry for?” he asked.

sorry for using the sleeping potion on you, and I’m sorry for everything.‘
