Sold as the Alpha King’s Breeder

Chapter 933

Chapter 139 : Feeling Watched

*Eliza*

I went to the bathroom and hopped in the shower. I washed my hair and squeezed the water out.

Wrapped in a towel, I checked my reflection in the steam-covered mirror. I dried off quickly and secured my hair in the towel to help it dry faster.

I got dressed in a casual outfit, something that would be comfortable for driving around and walking around. As Jared suggested, I put on comfortable shoes.

As I got ready for the day, I couldn’t shake the sense of uncertainty hanging over me. I wanted to believe that my dream was just a dream, but I wasn’t so sure anymore. Hestia’s voice sounded so real and what she said… was terrifying.

And the worst part was, she was still out there lurking around, and I knew exactly what she was after.

Every shadow started to look like her, and I just couldn’t turn off the unease that writhed in my stomach.

Over and over again, I tried to push those thoughts aside and focus on the good things.

Jared and I were back together. We were spending quality time together doing something fun, no longer fighting for our lives. We had a house, a village, and a baby on the way. I was excited to show him the Light Realm and all the places I knew he would love.

“Knock. Knock.” Jared knocked on the bedroom door.

“Ack!”

“Whoa, you’re a little jumpy,” Jared teased, winking at me.

I shook my head and took a deep, steadying breath. I’d been so lost in my thoughts I forgot he was even in the house. I took a moment to steady myself and stop my skeleton from trembling.

“Eliza, are you okay? I didn’t mean to scare you.” Jared came across the room and put an arm around me.

“I’m fine. I was just lost in thought.”

“Can I entice you to come out of your thoughts and join me in the present?” he asked, holding a hand out to me. “Our car is ready.”

I smiled and took his hand. Enjoying a day in the Light Realm with Jared sounded like exactly what I needed to keep my mind off the other stuff piling up in the background.

Jared led me out to the car and we pulled away from our little house. I turned around and watched the house shrinking in the distance as we drove off. In the sunlight, it looked even cuter and more perfect than before.

I couldn’t wait to come home to that house tonight. It did really feel like a home away from home.

“Can you take us to Winter Forest? We’d like to do a tour of the museums and temples there,” Jared told the driver.

“Yes, sir.” The driver replied.

It wasn’t a long drive to Winter Forest, but we still got to see some of the gorgeous landscapes of the Light Realm.

There were rolling hills with little golden flowers blooming on them making them look like mounds of gold in the shimmering sunlight.

When we arrived at Winter Forest, I saw the awe in Jared’s eyes. He looked around at the silvery trees, their leaves full and green.

The town built between the trees was busy but quaint.

The car pulled up at the first museum on our day tour. It was an archeology museum of ancient cultures uncovered throughout the Light Realm.

“Did you work on any of these digs?” Jared asked as we perused some of the ancient artifacts that were almost as old as the Light Realm itself.

“Oh, I wish! I would have loved to be on the dig that discovered this.” I pointed to an artifact in one of the glass cases.

Jared scrunched up his nose and tilted his head sideways. “Uhh… what is it?”

“Are you kidding? This is one of the oldest plane propellers ever discovered. It is hundreds of years old. Our ancestors were trying to master flight that long ago….”

Jared smiled and slipped his arm around my waist.

“I love seeing how excited you get about old artifacts.”

“I can’t help it. You know, I think that the only way not to repeat our past is to document it and learn from it.”
