“A letter?” I took it from his hands and then watched him walk away. I felt odd. It was almost as if she disappeared from the face of the earth, but I knew the answer was in that letter.

I closed my eyes to calm my agitated nerves before unfolding the piece of paper that was handed over to me. As soon as I opened it, I brought it close to my nose and smelled Beatrice’s scent on it.

“Akin! I am glad that things are going so well between us. I met you years ago and never thought I would get a chance to be with you. I was happy when we ended up marking each other. However, the happiness remained for only a short time. I didn’t want to say it, but things began to change. Especially after Helel k*issed me that night, I wish I could lie to myself and say I didn’t feel the same, but I felt the heat in my body—,” I paused as I closed my eyes and then opened them, taking steady breaths.

“Your proposal came to me as a surprise, but I was happy. I was so happy that I was finally getting married, but then I began to wonder, What about Helel and my other mates? There was a reason I was given all those mates. I cannot abandon them just to be with you, especially when my heart is craving to be with them. I want to give time to my other mates. I knew it might hurt you, but this is the truth. I cannot go into marriage with you with so much baggage on my shoulders. I want to take some time alone and think about everything., I am sorry for hurting you, but I really need this time. Please don’t search for me or try to force me to come back. I just want to be alone for now,” I read the letter and instantly held my breath.

“I am—is Gwen alright?” I questioned. “She is fine. She gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. She is so pretty,” I could tell from her voice that she was happy. I wanted to be satisfied, but a corner of my heart was crying.
