197-Trusting No One.
My mouth started getting dry when I watched him lying dead. Somebody left his body here or mocked
me.
Instead of rushing away, even when I could hear my mother coming for me, I backtracked and dropped
to my knees beside Helel.
’Hefei!" I grabbed his decomposing head and carried it on my lap as I mourned loudly.
‘This is not fair to you. You were supposed to live long and cherish the crown you have worked so hard
for,’ I said, crying and cleaning his face from the bugs.
’There you are!" My mother appeared viciously and muttered, trying to grab my arm and pull me away
from him.
‘Aren't you going to do anything? You used to protect me from these people. See what she is doing to
me; wake up, please," I begged Helel while my mother tugged me after her and away from him.
‘Wake up, please!* I cried loudly, getting dragged away from him when I saw a little movement in his
finger.
‘He is awake!’ I smiled crazily, "he is - - I stopped when everything started shaking hard and I fathomed
the movement was from the earthquake and not him waking him.
‘Wake up!’ I heard, and my body shook harder.

and realized I was in my bedroom with Pamela shaking me awake.
‘Oh! She woke up!’ my mother announced, reaching for the bed.
I tried sitting up, but my head felt heavy. So I lay down again.
’You hit your head when your mother pushed you." Pamela gently rubbed my arm, and that's when I
realized it was all just a dream.
‘Are you feeling okay?’ Pamela noticed how silent I was, so she asked me.
’I'll be," I answered without a display of emotion. Mom was standing beside her in guilt, unable to get
any closer to me.
If any of them could feel the pain I was in, they would be surprised. Waking up every day and forcing
myself to go to work and face so much stress was difficult, but I keep doing it.
’I'll bring you some food in a few minutes. Eat something and then rest, okay?" Pamela got up from
beside me and left the room for me and my mother to have a moment.
’I'm sorry. I don’t know what happened to me, but I lost my temper." She tried sitting down with me, but
when she noticed I wasn't even responding to her, she grabbed her phone and sat by the window. Just
like that, she was back to enjoying herself.
I was beginning to realize how lonely it would be if I didn't have my dragon awake.
If only I could speak to Ace and enjoy her company, I would feel much better. But how will I do it without
transitioning into my full dragon form?
Now that I have been depressed and heavy in my feelings, the instant I stop taking the pills, I will
transform. And since one can only stay in their full transition form once they are old, it will not be the
same for me. I will only be in a transition state for a few minutes and then back to my body, ready to get
captured and killed.
Then there was another thought that I couldn't get out of my head.
I must find Hefei's body.
The least I can do is give him a proper burial.
With that thought in my head, I cleared my throat to speak to my mom.
‘Do you have Alpha King Akin's number?" I asked her while miserably conversing with her. At this point,
I knew my mother didn't care about me the way normal parents do.
Her way of showing love was to control me.
Mom stared at my face in silence before a huge smile drew the corners of her lips wide apart.
‘Of course, I can call him right away. See! A little head bump was needed to help you understand you
need to stay in contact with him." She hurriedly dialed the number for me without even asking me what
I was going to say to him.
I got out of bed and grabbed the phone to go outside and talk to him in peace.
‘Hello?’ He answered the call in a heavy voice.
’Akin!" I said his name and heard him gasp a little.
’Beatrice! Is that you? Are you alright? How are you calling me?" The change in his tone was
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmnoticeable. He went from having no energy to showing the most.
‘May I know exactly where they dumped Melel's body?’ I requested, biting my tongue, as I have
promised myself not to bother the brothers again.
‘Oh! Why? Why do you want to torture yourself?’ he asked. I could hear sympathy in his voice.
’I'm confused how you brothers didn't do anything to find his body and - - - wait! You know where his
body is." I was yammering when I realized there was no way Akin would sit silently and do nothing
about it.
’Beatrice! Don't worry; everything is taken care of. He is resting in peace now,’ Akin said, making me
breathe heavily.
Why didn't he tell me that he had found his body?
‘You have his body?" I asked, and this time I bet he could hear the anger in my voice.
’I-," I was ready to hear him out when I stepped back and bumped into someone's hard chest.
I couldn't hear him talk because I had forced the phone away from my ear after watching Markus stand
behind me.
’What are you doing here?’ I asked him, keeping a safe distance from him.
’Trice! Who is it?" I heard Akin say something, but my entire focus was on Markus.
He was just silently staring at me and drooling.
It irked me to watch his mouth water like that. I stepped aside and sprinted past him to the inside,
hanging up on Akin and giving my mom her phone back.
All I knew was that I was going to meet Akin if he came into the café tomorrow.
Enough hiding from him.
