Sold as the Alpha King’s Breeder

Chapter 401

Chapter 59: Something Special

It felt as if the world shifted under my feet. I couldn’t believe the cold and callus way that Theo had treated me, ordering me to leave the palace at once as if I was nothing and no one to him.

I knew that I had made the promise to his mother that I would leave as soon as I had fulfilled my duties, and at the time, I had meant it.

There was a lot going on back home. The imposter was still there, I needed to bring justice for Susan’s death, and whatever that Raymond was plotting must be stopped.

I had already run away from the palace once in an attempt to get back to my home. Why didn’t I want to go now? Wasn’t it for the best that I was able to go back and ensure everything was straightened up in my pack?

With no other choice, I had to take my belongings from the room I had been staying in when I was his personal attendant and head back to the girls‘ rooms in the wing far away from the royals‘ residence.

I should have packed up and left the castle altogether as he had commanded me to, but my heart wouldn’t let me. I was upset, but it wasn’t as if he’d done anything wrong to me or harmed me. He’d only insisted that I do what I’d said I was going to do in the first place.

It wasn’t necessary for him to be so cold to me, but then, that was just Theo. He was always like that.

Well, not always. I thought about the moments we’d shared where he was soft and tender… Before I let my mind wander to the time we shared in the crystal’s realm, I stopped my thoughts.

It was strange that when his mother had said I had to go, he’d insisted that I stay. I didn’t think it was all about the berry. But then, maybe it had been.

He had kissed me a few times, and while sometimes it had been about my blood, at other times, I had gotten the impression he was kissing me because he wanted to.

Because he liked me.

Perhaps I was wrong….

I wasn’t sure what I should do, so I went into the room I had once shared with Brook and the other girls and dropped my bags, sitting down on the bed with my head in my hands. No one was in the room at the moment, and I was glad because I needed a moment to myself.

I’d been sitting there a while, though I wasn’t sure how long because I’d been so lost in my thoughts, when I heard the sound of a startled gasp and looked up.
