Chapter: 40

I never heard the story that he had a mate.

A mate can only be had by a werewolf once, if it’s true that he had one, how come I’m now his mate?

Where did the previous mate go?

What is truly happening?

For the past 2 days I’ve been going through the library, trying to find anything written about it, but I couldn’t find anything.

I wanted to ask, but I knew that no one would answer me.

Ugh…. I’m confused!!!

Letting out a long sigh, I put the book on top of the pile of other books I had picked up and there was nothing there.

Staring outside I stood up and picked up the books before starting to return them to their original place so that no one would find out what I wanted to know from the books.

I think that’s enough for today, I thought and started walking out of the library.

Staring at the door on the side that was Titus’ study, I stopped to stare at it before turning around and thinking to look around the other rooms that I hadn’t explored yet.

I notice Alexa and El follow behind without saying anything, I truly want to ask them but I know better that they have no answer about it too.

I walked around the gorgeous castle in no hurry, looking at the watch to see it’s 5PM and I have time before dinner to see around.

After walking down a long narrow hallway I arrived in the staircase, my curious peak and started to ascend the staircase. I know Alexa or El will stop me if it’s forbidden but they didn’t say anything and just following means it’s okay for me to go further.

I reached the top and saw a long hallway with many doors and a beautiful antique chandelier. Something caught my eye to see a grand piano at the back of the room.

Being the only daughter in the family, my mother used to love to play and taught me how.

My feet took me closer and before I could think I sat on the bench to start touching it.

“Can you play it, my queen?” I heard Alexa ask and I answered her by triling softly over the key to play canon D, glad that my finger still remembered how to play the piano.

It was my mother’s favorite song and she always plays it first before other songs.

Can’t help but smile when I remembered everything I used to do with my mother before I changed.

Broken heart broke me, too afraid to hurt my mother too if I said anything, I never told anyone about the rejection and started to stay away from my family.

The sound of the door opening broke me out of my reverie and my breath caught in my throat as I froze meeting a pair of eyes staring closely to my direction.

Slowly, Titus walked to where I sat and stopped in front me who quickly stood up from the seat.

Titus was staring at me like he just found me.

He’s staring at me with the looks that I never get before.
