Chapter 23

ARAIA'S P.O.V
"Jordan."
I opened my eyes to search for who just spoke. The fate that left my body came back when I saw the wolf run towards the person who called it.
"Here you are!" said the one who called the wolf.
I stare at him, The wolf is obeying everything that the man said. He let the wolf sit on the ground before he looked at me.
"Oh, hi!"
He smiled at me and walked towards me.
The tension in my body is slowly fading away, in just a snap I can now move my body but I face him nervously.
He isn't showing any signs of danger but I need to make sure that he's harmless!
I didn't blink while he's walking towards me. Is he also one of those people that Giselle ordered to kill me?
He may look decent but it's not enough reason for me to not be wary of him. This place is full of surprises so I shouldn't let my guard down.
I was just looking at him sensing if I should run or not but he raised both of his arms in the air and said, "Hey! I'm not an enemy…" He then looked at my feet.
"Are you okay?"
Is this concern looked at by him? Is he pretending to care about me to let my guard down?
He took a step forward and I took a step backward, he seemed shocked by what I did.
"Oh, I'm sorry. Did I scare you? I swear I'm not an enemy!" He then places his right hand on his chest.
"I actually saw you just now running so I came to you thinking that I could help you."
Again, He seems harmless but I couldn't let my guard down just yet.
When he realized that I didn't trust him yet He scratched the back of his head and blew a loud sigh.
"Okay, To be honest I am shocked that you seem to not know me but since I am scaring you I will tell you who I am."
What, what does he mean?
Is he some kind of celebrity here?
"I'm actually William, I am the alpha of that village beside Alejandro's." He pointed to the village beside Alpha Alejandro's village.
Huh, he's an Alpha?
I stare at him curiously. If he is an Alpha then why is he wrong around this place without any guard?
Oh, Is that wolf his only guard?
He is definitely just walking casually just a while ago. As far as I know Alpha's life is always in danger since there would be someone who will try to beat them in order to get the Alpha's position but why is he wandering in this place?
He seemed to notice my curiosity. He looked at the wolf behind him and said, "He's Jordan, my friend."
"..."
Friend, huh…
If he is your friend then why is he obeying everything that you're telling him?
Is that what a friend is supposed to do?
He told me a few facts about him before I finally let my guard down.
After a while, I decided to trust him because his servants came to tell him that he needed to go back to their village.
There, it only proves that he is really an Alpha and his name is William.
"Do you want to come with us? I'll drop you off near the gate of Alejandro's village."
I was hesitant at first to accept his offer but then I realized that I was sprained and there's still Giselle who is hunting me so I shouldn't roam around this place alone.
In the end I accepted his offer and he let me ride one of his wolves.
compared to how alpha alejandro's maids react whenever alpha lets me ride a wolf, alpha williams maids and servants don't care at all as long as they are obeying alpha williams orders.
So only Alpha Alejandro's servants are toxic…
They let me ride the wolf until we are finally at the gate of the village. One of Alpha Williams' servants helped me to get off the wolf.
"Thank you for letting me ride your wolf Alpha."
I bow my head as a sign of respect to him.
"No problem! Just come to our village if you need help!"
I nodded my head and they started to go to their village.
He is nice!
Not only did he save me from the possibility of Giselle killing me, he also helped me get here safely.
I just hope that everyone's just like him…
When they were far enough to turn around to enter the village , I was taken aback when I saw Alpha Alejandro standing behind me.
"A-alpha!"
That scared me! Since when is he standing there?
I bow my head before I face him.
"I-"
I was about to talk when he cut me off, "Why are you with him?"
"..."
Huh? What is he talking about?
I was confused about what he was talking about. I couldn't answer him since I didn't get him.
"William."
William…oh! Alpha William!
"I saw him in the woods-"
"What are you doing in the woods?" Again, he cut me off.
I took a deep breath before I answered him. Can he just stay quiet while I am talking?
"Giselle tried to kidnap me, I managed to escape and run into the woods towards this direction when they saw me. He actually helped me to get here." I explained calmly, thankfully this time he didn't interrupt me.
He didn't respond to what I said, he's just looking at me straight to my eyes as if he is weighing every word that I am saying.
Is he thinking that I am not telling the truth?
Should I tell him that all of these are happening because of him? Because he just made giselle jealous that's why that girl is taking all her anger on me.
Should I?
I was staring at him when I saw him roll his eyes.
Wow…just wow. Is he mad?
I thought he would go by himself but he grabbed me and lifted me the same way as before.
Should I be shocked?
I watched him as he started to walk towards his mansion. The awkwardness that should be here since he just confessed to me yesterday was replaced by irritation.
I think I have all the right to be irritated with him, right?
No one opens their mouths to talk while we're on the way to his mansion.
When we arrived, he let me rest in my room and told me that I should eat first before we talk. But what are we going to talk about?
Will he do something about Giselle kidnapping me? I don't think so because the last time that giselle was lucky to me if he didn't do anything so what's the change?
Or maybe that talk that he is referring to is about him firing me because I am too troublesome?
Ha…
Whatever. This is a tiring day, I barely managed to escape my death once again. I'm just thankful that I think ahead of time but if I didn't do that for sure I would be dead by now, and I was thankful to Alpha William for letting me go with them and to stop his friend from eating me.
Now that I think about it, I will definitely not roam around by myself as I don't know when those wild wolves will come. This is definitely a dangerous place…
Everyone here is aggressive…i just wished that i met alpha william first…
If only that happened then I wouldn't have to be scared like this. Argh…But I was thankful to Alpha Alejandro for not killing me and for saving me from Orlando.
I should look for a way to get back home as soon as possible before Giselle does something terrible again.
I don't want to go back home with just a soul, I want to go back with my full body unharmed.
I still want to hug my friends and hang out with them. I don't want to go back where I can't even hold them and even thank them for those times that they helped me whenever I am down…
I just realized how important it is for you to say the words that you want to say to someone when you can still see them. A time will come where you can't reach them anymore and there's no second chance for you to say what you want to say to them.
Don't wait for the time where you will regret not telling what's in your heart, just like me.
I never told them how grateful I am to have them but now that I am far from them and there is no certainty that I will go back, I realized that I should have told them how I felt before…
I should have told them while I still had the chance…
I closed my eyes and I didn't realize that I fell asleep.
