Chapter 130 Reyna Cruz: “Whoa, what the heck!” Panic swept over me as I glanced around spotting another window behind the bed. I hurried behind the bed and pulled open the curtains, only to find the window blocked, just like the other one. My heart sank in my chest, and the first thought that crossed my mind was to bang on the door repeatedly until I got Samuel’s attention, but then something held me back. “I need to think this through,” I muttered to myself, feeling like should have fled when I was outside the castle, walking with the funeral group. “Ugh Nera! I wish you were here right now. I have so many questions in my mind and there is no one I can share my concerns with, I sighed tiredly, shaking my head and getting all worked up. “What if he did this to protect me from the rogues?” I sank onto the bed and covered my face with my hands, making excuses to find some peace and sleep through the night. Otherwise, this worry would keep me awake indefinitely. I was consumed with concern about what he might be doing. It was no secret that ever since I arrived here, Samuel had been acting strangely. He even made sure not to help me charge my phone so that I could contact my loved ones on my own. He exerted control over everything, and I had to plead with him to connect me to a call with Hunter. “What if I gasped into my palms as a wild thought crossed my mind. I began to wonder if all the times he claimed Hunter had blocked him were even true. Who’s to say he wasn’t lying! His recent actions were the reason I doubted him so much. “I have to think wisely and act properly,” I nodded to myself. If he somehow avoids taking me to theBelongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
pack in the morning. I’ll start thinking of ways to escape. His refusal to my request would mean he’s really trapping me here.” I was trying to make sense of everything. I got out of bed and sat down on the sofa, slipping into sleep in a seated position with my back turned away from the couch’s backrest. The big issue was that I didn’t even have my wolf with me anymore, and I wondered why. It wasn’t a coincidence that it happened when I came here. Even though I was so stressed out, I forced myself to fall asleep so that I could wake up with full energy and confront Samuel or at least make a plan. I woke up to the sound of utensils clattering against each other. I straightened my back while staring at the door as it opened steadily. “Good morning,” it was the same maid from last night, arriving with a food tray. “Where is Samuel?” I didn’t even think about responding to her. That’s how scared I was. I just wanted this fear to go away, the fear that I was actually trapped here and not just a guest anymore. “He will be back in a few hours. Till then, you can freshen up and eat this food, she advised, leaving the tray behind before exiting. 1 remained calm, but the minute she shut the door, I rushed to check the lock. I had a feeling she would lock me inside again. However, the moment I turned the knob, the door swung open, and I almost fell down. “Are you okay?” the maid turned around as she stopped in her tracks and asked me. 1/3 ||| Gb Chapter 130 “Oh! Yeah! I was going to ask you-if you could get me some mango juice?” I smiled awkwardly, feeling like a fool. “Yeah, sure. The Rogue King told me to be attentive to you and your demands, and to get you whatever you need to be comfortable,” she said, smiling pleasantly. “Ahal Do you work for him every day, or were you hired recently? I inquired, realizing that I had never focused on his background before. He knew all about me but I knew nothing of him.
“Oh, my dad used to work for him, but recently, he’s been very sick, so I was sent to work here,” she explained, “You’re going to be our queen, right? I can’t wait for that. We were so excited previously as well, but then-” she paused, wrinkling her nose. “Then that alpha king stole you away, she finished in a grumpy tone. “What is your name? to avoid talking about that subject, I asked for her name. “Tam Sallie, Sallie Fisherman, she giggled, shrugging her shoulders, “Nice to meet you, Sallie. Can you tell me where Samuel went?” questioned, watching her zone out. I don’t know, maybe some business meeting. They are severing their ties with the packs so-“she uttered, “you can finish. your food and then watch a movie” She seemed cheerful and nice. I gave her a smile before returning to the bedroom. “So he didn’t leave the door locked, I muttered to myself, thinking maybe I was wrong. I took a shower and called Sallie back to help bandage my wound before late. “Sallie! Is the rooftop accessible?” I inquired, putting on a black shirt and then adjusting my posture on the sofa to start my breakfast. “Yes! Everywhere is accessible except for the basement, she instantly clammed up when she said that. “Why? What is in the basement?” I turned to her as she put the medicine away. “It’s dirty. Nobody ever used it, she didn’t meet my eyes when answering, “you can go to the rooftop, the view from height is so beautiful.” She was back to her cheery tone now that she was no longer talking about the basement. I don’t know why, but it just ma me a linle uneasy. Or maybe she was telling the truth. The basements of these royal castles are usually used to keep private stuff. “Sure, I will finish the food and then go to the rooftop, giving her a smile, I started the breakfast. Nera still hadn’t awakened, and I was getting worried about her. I briefly thought about getting poisoned by the food, but that idea was discarded when I didn’t eat once and Nera still didn’t wake up.
After finishing breakfast, I left the room to get some fresh air on the rooftop. It was such a reminder of my date with Samuel, I don’t know why I thought I wouldn’t be allowed to roam around anymore. Maybe because of the lock on the windows and the door from last night. “Isn’t it pretty?” I almost jumped at the voice from behind me. It was Samuel in a black suit. “You’re home,” I said, watching him come closer with a smile on his lips. He looked fresh and in a good mood. “It truly is,” I mumbled. 2/3 G Chapter 130 “So, where did you go early this morning?” I questioned, trying not to sound rude or remind him of our arguments. 62% I realized that I was somewhat at his mercy, especially when I could look down and see all the rogues around the castle. It wasn’t like that before, so it was worrisome. But I wasn’t even asking him any questions so that he didn’t feel like I was suspicious, even if he was planning something. “I have business to take care of, remember?” he joked before he sghed and rested his arms on the small wall that we both were leaning on. “How are you feeling today?” he questioned, not bringing up taking me home on his own. “I guess I’m much better. Ready to travel in the car, I joked and showed him a full-tooth smile before I added, “ready to hug my son again.” My smile faded as I recalled it’s been so long since I’ve done that. “Right,” he only nodded and then continued to look at the clouds ahead. “So, when can we leave?” I questioned after I couldn’t get him to talk about it on his own. “Hmm? Where to?” The way he turned to me and raised his brow made me gulp and stare at his face with fear. “Home! To the pack.” I uttered. “We can’t do that,” as soon as he said that. I felt like the world beneath my feet started shaking. So I
was right. He was planning something and I was trapped here? 3/3 |||
