Amore.

That evening, Ciara brought me my supper.

I can't help but feeling proud at how gorgeous she is wearing only a simple dress without the slightest trace of cosmetic on her face.

"Goodevening, Amore..."

I smiled at her. "Goodevening too."

But the joy I feel within suddenly vanish when I notice how she avoids my gaze.

"Babe, what's my treat for tonight?" I said, trying to ease the mood.

"Brownies..." she answered briefly.

I blinked at her coldness.
"Is there something wrong?" I asked softly.

She shook her head and forced out a smile but I can see through her mask.

"Nothing. W-Why would you ask that?"

I crossed my arms around my chest.
"Well, maybe because you are a horrible at lying and pretending?"

She rolled her eyes and let out a deep sigh.
"Nothing's wrong. Now, you eat well. See you tomorrow."

"Fuck it. I won't eat any of these if you won't tell me what's wrong."

"I said there's nothing wrong, okay?"

I laughed sarcastically.
"As if it isn't obvious, Ciara."

She looked away.
"Just drop it."

I stood.
"You know you can tell me anything, right?"

She looked at me, her eyes starts to become teary.
"T-They... The Alpha knew w-what happened between us."

Well, no shit babe. I've received a few punches just because that big butt wolf knew.

"Don't beat yourself. We'll figure out something soon, okay?" I smiled at her.

She shook her head once again.
"You don't understand..." she whispered softly.

I bit my inner cheeks. I don't like where this is going...
"Then explain. I'm all ears, babe. I ain't going anywhere."

"I am mated, Amore. I don't..."
She heaved a sigh.
"I don't wanna lose Miguel just because of this secret affair I have with you. And I won't deny it. We do feel something very special. It's pointless denying, we know what and how we feel towards each other. I feel great with you and I don't know why. I shouldn't feel this way but let'face it, you made me feel special. You really do."

My jaw clenched.
"You don't wanna lose him huh? So you'd rather lose me? Is that what you're saying?" I didn't bother concealing the pain in my voice.

Just like she said, it's pointless denying, we know what and how we feel towards each other.

"Amore, you have to understand. It's my mate we're talking about here. If he'll find out, there's no way he'll ever accept me. The moon paired me with him for a reason."

I laughed at the irony of this argument.
"Yeah right."

Her eyes narrowed into slits.
"Don't be selfish and sarcastic, Amore. Let's just face this shit. We're worlds apart. I am not yours and you're not mine. I have a mate. A mate I am committed to..."
