King Alejandro: The Return Of Her Cold-Hearted Alpha

Chapter 70

70 A Risky Plan RAYHAN

I turned sharply to see Dante standing there, reaching over he quietly shut the door. 4 “What do you mean she’s going to sacrifice herself?” I asked sharply. He looked down the hallway before motioning at me to follow him. Why did he act like a twenty-year-old rather than his age? This boy… but I was far more worried about what he had just said outside Mom’s room. 1 A thousand thoughts crossed my mind as he opened my bedroom door, making Raihana look at us questioningly. “You can leave.” Dante said to her, making her frown. “And what are you doing here?”

She asked. “I came to see Delsanra.” He replied haughtily. Walking around the bed, he looked down at her. Side by side, it was clear that the veins on Delsanra’s skin were a lot worse. The asshat bent down and placed a kiss on her forehead, making Raihana smirk “Ah, the cousins are fighting over a girl.” She teased. “We aren’t. She’s mine.” I said, crossing my arms. I wanted to ask what he meant, but it was obvious he wasn’t planning on telling me until Raihana was gone. “You can go.” She stood up and stretched, “Sure, keep an eye on her…” She said, concern crossing her face.

“I will.”

She gave a nod before she left the room. I turned to Dante, who was standing there stroking MY kitten’s hair. 1

“Oi, stop touching her. What did you mean earlier?” I asked.

He raised an eyebrow before crossing his arms. “I meant that Mama Mari is the one who will deliver the final blow to the Djinn, and she will die doing so.”

What?

My head was spinning as I stared at him, trying to collect my emotions and thoughts that were storming through my mind.

“I don’t get it, what do you mean?” I said running my hand through my hair.

He frowned seriously, as he looked down at Delsanra. “The price of killing a Djinn… The one who uses the virgin blade will die unless they are of the Same kind, djinns, devils, and demons are all of the same family. Unless you are one, the wielder will die…” He said quietly.

“Does Uncle know this?” I asked sharply.

From what I knew, Uncle was going to go in for the final attack…

“Yes, and so does your mom, she wants to return to Uncle Rafael.” He said quietly. His frown was deep, and all traces of cockiness were gone.

Mom was ready to die…

The tension between Uncle and Mom now made sense.

For Uncle to agree, Mom must have convinced him somehow…

I know as the years have passed, her missing Dad and feeling alone has grown. I would see her awake at night, sometimes walking around the mansion gardens. She was always staring off into space, and the amount of time she spent in Dad’s favourite spots was unnerving.

But had she really come to that point where there was nothing worth living for?

Was I being selfish that it stung to know we weren’t enough?

Was I being selfish to want her to live?

Was I wrong for feeling angry that she didn’t talk to me about it or about this decision?

I looked at Delsanra lying in the bed. She didn’t have the love of her parents, didn’t she deserve some more time with Mom?

“Rayhan.” Dante’s voice pulled me from my thoughts. I could feel my aura swirling around me, my eyes blazing as that storm within me only continued to grow into something that was getting out of control. Rage began overpowering all sense of logic. How dare they not tell me! Both her and Uncle. I had a right to know. “Rayhan.” Dante glared at me, and I glared back. “Hear me out.

“What more do you want to say?” I growled.
