Chapter 51

Mabel

I stared at Jerome with a concerned look on my face even though I was feeling angry inside not wanting him to quit anymore. I have no concern about him anymore, all I wish for right now is nothing but pain and suffering. I wanted him to suffer in the hands of those he will fight tomorrow, and I knew that there was no way he would be able to win in the duel. I am confident about it and I'm going to come just to watch him get humiliated. I wouldn't have wanted to come tomorrow if I didn't want to see him get hurt badly. I don't count the stress of having to come here.

I knew for a fact that if I was to come here before I would have to be forced but that isn't the case, I'm willing to come here not because I was forced but to see my fiance who broke off our engagement to be with his mate but to lose her to another man. I knew that it would hurt his ego as I have said that but he doesn't seem to know that it was all my plan. I knew that he would feel discouraged but I don't want him to feel discouraged for him to stop fighting in the duel. My gaze softened as I stared at him but if he was to know what I was thinking, then things won't be good.

"I know you feel concerned about me but there is no way I'm backing out of the duel, I will do whatever it takes to be with my mate, nothing will stop me from making her my mate. I will go to any length to be with her," he replied and I smiled softly while staring at him with an understanding look on my face.

"I was just letting you know, I felt concerned about what you just said and you don't have to worry I got your back, I will support you with whatever you want" I replied with a fake smile on my face.

I knew that what I was saying wasn't true because there is no way I will support him unless it has to do with his downfall. I won't let myself get close to him if it isn't for his downfall. I will make sure that he regrets ever messing with me and the same with Jerome.

"Thanks, I appreciate that" Jerome replied, hugging me and I faked a smile while patting his back slowly. I was boiling with anger as I hugged him because it made me remember the time we spent together and I don't want to remember that. I was still lost in thoughts when I felt the flowers which were at my front move and I knew without a doubt that the person who was there was no other person than Erica.

I knew that she didn't want me to be alone with Jerome, and an idea suddenly popped up in my head. What if I make her jealous? I knew she won't be able to keep herself together and wouldn't want to talk to him for a while. I knew that they were having an argument before I walked up to them earlier and I knew if I was to hug him longer than a normal hug. I knew that since he was the one who initiated the hug then there is no way she wouldn't feel jealous. I knew that she might think that something is going on between the both of us.

"I will be here tomorrow to watch you win the fight, and make sure not to disappoint me," I said immediately I disengaged from the hug with a dreamily smile on my face which I tried to hide. I knew that what I just did would cause a feud between them and I bet that they wouldn't resolve it as quickly as possible. I knew that me doing this while trying to get closer to her would confuse her.

"Thanks Mabel, I really appreciate it," he replied while showing his white teeth. I couldn't help but smile at the thought of his white teeth turning crimson red if he was to hit on his mouth.

"That's what friends do," I said with a smile while patting his shoulder with a smile on my face.

"I need to leave now, it's getting evening already and I don't want to be late before I get home, I don't want anybody worrying about me" I said to Jerome and with that I walked away from him.

"Yes, it's true. You may take your leave" he said with a bow while stretching his hands dramatically.

I walked away from him and heard toward the pack's border to where the leader of the council was. I wasn't going to be saying nice words to him, it wasn't for that fact that I don't want to cause trouble in this pack. I knew that I could get killed for not respecting him, which I don't want. I don't want to lose my life because of him, and there is no way that would happen if I was to follow his orders.

"You are back earlier than I thought, how is it going?" I heard him ask immediately if he saw me.

"He doesn't accept, he said he would fight to the end" I replied with my head bowed not wanting to get into trouble for disrespecting him again.

"You can take your leave," I heard him say and I stared at him with shock evident in my eyes. I had thought that there is no way he would let me go off so easily but I was wrong. I was so shocked by his reply that I stared at him with shock.

"Don't you have ears?" he asked as he stared at me with his gaze, boring holes in my body.

I walked away from him and I stopped all of a sudden when I heard him call me back. My heart was beating heavily not knowing what he called me back for. I feel like something is wrong and that there is no way I will be able to get off easily.
