Chapter 421
421 YOU CAN KILL ME
Eros couldn’t believe what he heard when Colton told him that he could take Emily and return to their bedroom.
Had his punishment ended already? What about the murder that he commited?
“Go back to your room,” Colton repeated his words and then looked at Emily beside him. “She doesn’t need to suffer with you here.”
And after saying that, Colton stood up. He was about to leave the room right away, but Eros stopped him by asking what was actually going on.
“Why did you release me out of the blue?” Eros asked. He didn’t dare to put his guard down, though the gamma said he could leave the room.
From what Eros noticed, there was no guard at the door and it was wide open for him to go. He was free to leave this room.
“I didn’t release you, this is an order from the alpha,” Colton said, he looked at Eros and then spoke more softly. “I hope you can learn from this and try your best to not lose your control again, because maybe next time it is the little girl next to you that we will bury.”
Eros felt his heart skip a beat when he heard that. His mouth went dry and he couldn’t find a word to say, because he knew that scenario was something that was highly likely to happen.
“If you care enough, you need to learn how to control your emotions starting from now onward.” The way Colton spoke did not particularly sound like he was judging him. He only stated the facts, pointed out the reality that Eros, perhaps, forgot. “You know what I said is true.”
.....
And then he walked out of the room, leaving the door wide open behind him.
For a moment, Eros contemplated. He tried to think what exactly had happened out there and also about Darius, Derek’s elder brother. The last time he met him, he had this determination in his eyes that his obsession now was to find a way to kill himself.
However, he also knew nothing would come to his mind right now if he just stayed like this inside the room, therefore, he decided to go out and figure this out himself.
Eros then turned to Emily and shook her shoulder. “Emily, we need to go, let’s go back to our bedroom.”
Emily opened her eyes groggily and then yawned. She was still sleepy and didn’t hear what Eros said before, he needed to repeat himself again.
“We can go now?” she asked in disbelief. “Does it mean they forgave you? The alpha will not punish you, right?” Emily asked again, as she looked at Eros expectantly, her hair was messy when she got up and then sat down.
Seeing that, Eros stretched out his hand and helped her to tidy herself a little bit.
“I don’t know yet, but I think we need to get out of here. Let’s have breakfast, shall we?” Eros looked at the sky from the opened door and he was sure this was still breakfast time, maybe if they hurried, they would still have something to eat.
“Yes,” Emily replied happily. She didn’t really care about breakfast, but the possibility that Eros would no longer be punished was enough to brighten her day. “Let’s have breakfast.”
Eros smiled along with her, if there was one reason for him to be able to endure all of this, it must be her.
She was beautiful, even with all the scars on her face. She was the most beautiful girl that he had ever seen. However, a flash of a girl with white hair invaded his mind, yet he shook the image off pretty quickly before he stood up and helped Emily to stand as well.
“Let’s have our breakfast.” Eros didn’t want to think about her, but every now and then he would feel curious about what she said about Liam and why she looked at the alpha with so much hostility.
========================
“What did you do to him!? WHAT DID YOU DO TO HIM!?” Jasmine lost it when she heard what had happened to Darius, what Liam had done to him.
Actually, there was no detailed information about this, but all the people that she asked about Darius would say that he was gone. He was no longer a member of this pack. Some people said he was exiled. Some people said the alpha had killed him and thrown his body somewhere inside the forest to let the animals eat it.
Jasmine didn’t know which one was true, but the reality that she had to face was; he was gone, so was her chance to get away from this pack. To make things worse, she was pregnant. This was the worst she had ever been in her life.
How could she survive this? Birthing another monster in this pack? Letting Liam toy with her for the rest of her life?
The future was bleak for her and she dreaded every second of it.
“SHUT UP!” Liam shouted at her, but she didn’t stop struggling. She tried to kick him, hit him or anything that she could do in order to hurt the alpha. She was completely nuts right now. “SHUT UP!”
Liam didn’t mean to do it, but he ended up back handing her, until she fell to the floor and became very quiet before she pushed herself to sit down. Her hair cascaded down her face, as she covered her sore cheek with her hand.
Liam couldn’t see Jasmine’s expression, but he could feel how mad she was. She was breathing heavily and her shoulders moved up and down really fast.
For a moment, Liam didn’t know what to do. The hand that he used to slap Jasmine still hung awkwardly in the air.
A moment of heavy silence ensued between them, as if you could cut the tension in this room with a knife.
“Kill me,” Jasmine said. “I am done. You can kill me.”
