"Elysian!" Alpha reprimanded me; I raised an eyebrow, challenging him.
"I am just asking her, Lewis. I mean, Andrea shouldn't stay long at someone else's home. And this Manor is for the Alpha and the Luna. An outsider shouldn't be here."
"That's it!" Alpha stood up angrily and walked towards me. He held me by the arm and pulled, and I obliged. He dragged me out of the dining area. "What the hell is wrong with you?"
"Me? There's nothing wrong with me," I tried to pull my arm away from him, but the Alpha didn't budge. "Let go of me, Lewis. You're hurting me!"
"You're being rude, Elysian! Is that how Luna should act? She just lost her child, and I am just helping her. She's just an old acquaintance, and I am doing my job by helping her. So please do your job as Luna, too. As a she-wolf, you must also understand and sympathise with her."
I bit my lower lip, stopping myself from crying. How could he do that? He's worried because Andrea lost her child. I lost mine, too! But he wasn't there when I needed him the most. I almost lost my sanity back then, but I had to get better because many people needed me.
We both turned our heads when we heard the sound of luggage being dragged. There, we saw Andrea pulling her bags while crying. Alpha let go of me and ran towards Andrea, and he cupped Andrea's face.
"Why are you crying? What's wrong, Andrea?"
Andrea shook her head, "I am sorry, Lewis. I need to go home. I don't want to cause a stir between you and Elysian. Elysian is right; this Manor is for the Luna and the Alpha... And I am a she-wolf who doesn't belong here anymore. I need to face everything alone, Lewis. I should stop being dependent on you. You have your own life."
Andrea cried even harder, which caused Lewis to panic.
"That's not true, Andrea. You're part of the Golden pack and can stay here. What would happen to you if you stayed in your home alone? You can stay with us... I will help you, Andrea. You have me, you will always have me, and you have Elysian, too. Right, Luna?"
"Yeah, right, whatever. Stay as long as you want, Andrea. I don't care." I coldly said and turned my back against them.
I kept telling myself that I should stop caring for my mate, but deep inside, I was still in love with him. But how long will I let myself drown from this misery? How long will I let them torment me?
