The Dark Side Of Fate Chapter 457
"If I looked normal, would you have wanted to try?" I asked him, and he looked shocked.
"It has nothing to do with your looks. There is nothing wrong with you. You are a bit underweight and have started gaining in three days. It has nothing to do with your eyes, either. They are unusual but gorgeous. They look like full moons. Nothing is wrong with you, but I cannot love anyone because fate wills it. It has to be on my terms. I will treat you as my younger sister and give you the life I feel you deserve, but I won't give you more, Amelia. I won't give you more because I can't." He said, and I summoned the courage to speak.
"Bond aside, you should at least try. If it doesn't work out, then at least we tried. I might not be at the level of your exes, but you could at least get to know me first. I am not asking for too much, am I?" I asked him, and he looked at me surprised.
"Who told you I had exes?" he said, and I was disappointed that was all he could pick from what I said. I had to tell him the truth.
"Miss Clayman said other than your ex-wife, you had a fated," I said, and he cursed.
"What brought about that conversation?" He said, sounding angry, and he was using his command. I could not fight it, so I told him what Leah told me, and his eyes turned black. It alternated from yellow to black and then settled on black.
I was afraid.
"Do not mention that I had a fated ever to me again," he warned me, and I nodded quickly, hoping to excuse myself. The conversation had not ended, and I doubted he would discuss it again.
He dismissed me, and I rushed to my bedroom, still afraid of what I had just experienced.
"Hang in there," Aurora said, and I ignored her. Alpha Leo scared the hell out of me just now.
Morning came. I showered and dressed up, and left my room.
To my surprise, Omegas cleaned the place, and Alpha Leo was on the couch.
I was afraid that I had lost my job. Maybe I should have kept my mouth shut. He looked at me, and I greeted him quickly.
"I am sorry I overslept, Alpha I.." I thought I might not have resumed when he expected, and he shook his head.
"No, let them clean the house. We are going out today. We need to buy you some clothes. I feel like resting a bit today, and you need clothes," He said, and I frowned at him. I swear the omegas paused to be sure they heard Alpha Leo right.
I did not want to s say anything or spoil it.
I nodded immediately and smiled. A day with him was a reasonable effort on his part.
I did not know if he was trying, but I was hopeful.
I knew he was kind and ruthless, so this might be his kind side.
On my fourth day already, Alpha was taking me shopping. I could not believe it was happening.
"Baby steps, Amelia, we are taking baby steps," Aurora said. I doubted it, but I let it be my reality for now.
