Chapter 5

Chapter 5

Bryson's POV

After the party and facing Elena, exhaustion got the best of me. That was partly due to the number of people I needed to entertain but primarily because of Elena's stubbornness.

I could understand where she was coming from, though. She was right. I indeed vowed to her that I wouldn't marry and love another woman aside from her. But that was before I met my fated mate.

But what really took me by utter surprise was when she managed to block my hand. I could almost not move my hand when she grabbed it, but I think it was only because I was shocked by her action.

"Yeah, keep telling yourself that." My wolf mocked me.

I tried not to mind him and just sighed. Soon enough, when Elena sees her fated mate, she'll probably understand me.

"Really? Will you?" Drake, my wolf, suddenly asked me.

On cue, a sudden jolt of unknown pain cursed through my heart. Would I really be fine? But I mean, we were already married, she couldn't go to him, right?

But that thought aside, being with Glenda was the most blissful moment of my life. Unlike Elena, she's a warrior. She understands my pain and thoughts. We had fought alongside each other for a long time.

Slumped on my office chair, I browse a series of documents regarding the post- report we must send to the kingdom. I was in the middle of it when a knock echoed.

"Come in," I nonchalantly said, continuing what I was doing.

“Alpha, a messenger sent this to us just a few seconds ago,” Collin Henry, my Beta, told me as he placed something on my desk.

"Okay, just leave it there."

I didn't pay much attention to it because we usually get letters after a battle, which were mostly just congratulatory messages.

But when I saw Collin's shadows still looming in front of me, I looked up. "Anything else?"

He pushed the letter forward. "I think you should read this."
