The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 102

Chapter 102: AN ASSASSINATION INVESTIGATION (1)

Xaden looked over the body as Erik returned.

"I just called in Damian. He is coming in," Erik said, and then he looked Xaden over. "You’re still butt naked."

"My bare ass is barely the thing to be noticed. I have a dessert assassin lying dead in my bath." Xaden said.

"It can’t be that bad." Erik said. "You could have died. But I didn’t."

"Yeah, I didn’t, and you coming in to save me was a waste of time," Xaden said. You barely did anything to her—if you did at all."

"But at least I interrupted your murder." Erik said.

"A blade won’t kill me." Xaden said. Then, it occurred to Xaden.

He turned to face Erik, but he had already left the bath.

Xaden followed him.

"How did you just come at the nick of time?" Xaden asked suspiciously. "You burst in like you knew something bad was going to happen to me."

"Of course I did. I’m your gamma, and we have telepathy," Erik joked as he picked up a robe and handed it to Xaden.

Xaden snatched it and rolled his eyes. "Be serious."

And then he put it on.

The truth was Erik had been going down the hallway to keep everything in order ahead of the last and final halo festival when Jasmine had come running to him.

"Where are you going to? Are you in a hurry?" He asked her with a brow raised.

Even though she had helped them times without a number, he still resented her.

She was, after all, her father’s daughter, and that came first before her.

He wasn’t to blame for how he felt towards her.

"I’ve been looking for you." She rushed. "I had a bad feeling."

But she was talking too fast and even sweating.

"Wait." He said. "Take in deep breaths."

"There is no time!" She said.

He had never seen her act this way.

She is usually obedient and rarely ever counters anyone.

But now she was facing him, even challenging him.

"Take in deep breaths". He further urged.

She stopped and did as he asked.

When she was done, and he was sure she was calm, he looked at her and said. "Now tell me why you’re looking for me."

"Sir Erik." She started. "I just have this feeling. A horrible feeling in here."

She touched her heart.

"That something bad is about to happen to Alpha Xaden." She said. "I can’t explain why or understand it myself. But something is about to happen. I can feel it. In my bones."

He looked at her like she was crazy.

"I know you think I’m crazy. I know this sounds ridiculous. But you have to believe me, please." She begged. "And I know there isn’t a reason why you should trust. But you’ve vouched for me and saved my life times without count."

So he turned around and went to Xaden’s room. _{ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom}
