My Best Friend Stole My Royal Boyfriend

Chapter 39

Amiera faints in my arms. The shock of what she just did, coupled with all of the drinks

she had, must have exhausted her.

I look around us, and all eyes are still on her. I’ve seen that look before; people were actually afraid of her now. I’ve gotten looks like that my entire life, and I’m not sure that Amiera would appreciate seeing people looking at her like that. It was one thing having people not believing in you, but it was a totally other problem when they were afraid of you.

Her hair has fallen over her face, and her cheeks are flushed while her body is still warmer than it should be. Seeing her like this only makes me angrier at how much it affects me.

This was just the start of Amiera’s power; she was even stronger than this. This is what

I couldn’t deny it anymore; I wanted to protect her, I didn’t want to see her in pain. And I definitely didn’t want to see her heartbroken like this while knowing that I was the reason for it.

Falling for Amiera was my mistake, one of the biggest mistakes I’ve ever made in my life. I was never supposed to like her; it was never supposed to end up this way for either one of us.

But Amiera would never agree to join my side; she would never agree to help me take over

the world; she wouldn’t sit back and let me do it either. Was I supposed to just forget about a
