Aliana POV

Spending the day with Nikolas to care for his mother was fun. I got to see his sensitive side, and it was amazing.

He loved her, and I could see it as he switched from the savage wicked rogue prince to a sensitive, sweet man. If his life were normal, whomever he ended up with would be lucky. I remembered our date night and the memory of the dance, him comforting me while I threw up, holding me under the shower and in the tub, the memory remained with me.

I had sl*ipped up and tried to k*iss him, but he had dodged. I saw it and pretended to have passed out.

I was grateful for that memory. I needed it.

I woke up wishing I was a Lycan. Maybe I would have stood a chance with him.

I believe something might have happened between us if I were his kind, but the divide was real, and it kept us apart regardless of what we were feeling.

I knew I could not allow myself to feel anything for him. No matter how good it got, he would one day mate with a Lycan he loves, which would be the end of it for me. He had indeed kept his promise and ruined me. It would be difficult for me even if he decided to let me go. It would be impossible for me to have a werewolf mate because werewolves hated Lycans too.

I thought he would send for me in the evening, but when Ania and Lisa brought my food and left, I knew I wouldn’t be spending the night with Nikolas.

I woke up the next day and got ready for my work. Ania and Lisa brought breakfast, and we gossiped a bit before we got ready to go to the Queen’s room.

I tried to link Nikolas to find out if he wanted to join us to care for his mother, but I met a wall. He had somehow blocked me off.

I was a bit ashamed and hurt about it. I pleaded with Ania to link him with the question to avoid getting in trouble.

She was successful, and my heart was broken. I guess I wasn’t allowed to link him. “He said no and that you should prepare everything needed and leave the room when it is evening. He does not want to find you there when it is time for him to tend to her,” She said with a tinge of sadness.

They believed I had feelings for him, and she had told me to be hopeful, but now she knew better.

“Very well, it means we have time to chat,” I said with a smile, trying to make it seem like it did not bother me, but it bothered me a lot. Ania’s smile dropped, and I knew she had something to tell.

“Tell me, it is okay,” I said, bracing myself for it. “We are to remain there in the evening and assist him,” she said, and I smiled.

“I am the only one that shouldn’t be there. In other words, he does not want to see me,” I said, and she nodded.

I shrugged my shoulders and brushed it aside. “Well, I have ample time to catch up on me-time,” I said, and Lisa smiled.
