Chapter 358 – He Won’t Let Me Go
“Just keep walking,” I said, rolling my eyes at Colt, who was stalling. I finally stopped and turned around
to give him a deadly glare.
“Didn’t you say we would leave?” I reminded him of the promise he had made to me when I expressed
my fear of becoming evil towards him.
“Why do we have to go?” Colt pouted, waving the bag around. “Is it about Reign?” I asked, folding my
arms over my chest and keeping my eyes on his face so I would not miss any details.

“Actually, no!” he shook his head, surprising me, “It is about Dream.”
I had to shake my head and then clear my ears to ensure I heard him right. He was worried about
Dream.
“She seems alone,” he added to his comment.
“And you are now realizing it? When you were comforting Reign, did you realize how lonely she must
have felt?” I was bombarding him with questions because I do think he made a mistake. He should
have been more considerate of her feelings from the get-go.
“Oh that! Well, I really like Reign,” as he confessed; he left me baffled.
“You are not thinking about—,” I raised my brow and watched him shake his head vigorously.
“I am not as lucky as you!” he joked while showing his white teeth to tease me.
“Dream is my friend only. I do feel like she is alone. As for Reign, I wish she were alone,” he said,
clenching his jaw and fist-pushing his palm to express sorrow.
“Oh! You like Reign,” I commented as if I didn’t know, “but you will have to control your emotions now
because we are leaving,” I shrugged, eyeing him to continue with our journey.
“We are headed—,” I interrupted him in the middle of his sentence.
“Home! We are headed home, and maybe I will manage to find my pendant and control her,” I
mentioned Ace. That was my brilliant plan. I had a feeling that once I have my pendant and am able to
control my full transition, I will not fear becoming evil and doing something terrible to one of the
brothers.
“Maybe Ace is not realising it, but deep down she is also in love with the brothers,” Colt smiled, looking
like an idiot when pissing me off.
“Brothers, as in plural? I am not in love with all of them. I only love Helel—oh shit!” I gasped after
another incident popped up in my memory and kind of made me even more wary of Ace.
“What happened now?” Colt looked truly horrified when asking me this time.
“Remember when we ended up in the well? It was Ace trying to drop Helel off the height. I am pretty
sure it wasn’t some cute moment gone wrong,” now that I knew she didn’t like the brothers, it made
sense, and I felt so scared for them.
“Oh shit,” Colt bit his tongue as he, too, understood how serious it was. Ace didn’t have control over her
emotions for many reasons. I wouldn’t justify her behavior, but I could say I understand why she acts
that way. She had been subsided all her life, restrained inside me, and then she found out that one of
the brothers ate our brother. It was just piling up. As Helel couldn’t prevent the hatred for evil inside
him, I bet Ace was driven to evil.
“We need to leave, get away from them —,” I couldn’t finish because a mild scoff made me understand
Colt and I were not alone on this road anymore. As I turned my head to the side and watched Akin, I
took a deep breath and prepared myself for a word battle.
“She wasn’t the one who wanted to hurt Helel. It was Ace!” Colt immediately began to give clarifications
for my confession.
“You are leaving?” Akin pushed aside all the topics and focused on one thing only. He looked so upset
and showed as if he truly believed I would listen to him and not think about anything for the night.
“I will —go pee in the woods,” Now that Colt understood Akin and I should have this conversation
alone, he excused himself and rushed to the other side of the road, pretending to give us his back and
pee.
“You heard me, right? Do you know how deadly it could have been if Ace had succeeded in her mission
to k*ill Helel?” I asked him while striding away from him. He was taking slow and steady steps near me,
making me notice that for the first time, he wasn’t in his suit when he was out of the mansion like this.
The white shorts and white sleeveless shirt were glowing on his skin. His black hair was perfectly shiny
but messy over his forehead.
“But she didn’t. She can only transition for a few minutes,” he tried to excuse what Ace was doing to
everyone.
“Those few minutes are enough for her to cause destruction. Do you not remember how she —k*illed
your father,” I wanted him to know I had to go or else someone will end up hurt.
“Not that you want to hear me say he deserved it, but—leaving is not the only solution,” he said, taking
the rest of the steps briskly so that he approaches me before I manage to step away from him.
“You don’t understand,” I was shaking my head and timidly looking away from him.
“I am not letting you go, Beatrice. Even if Ace comes out and hurts me. I am not—letting this happen,”
his words were coming out so softly, and his tone was filled with emotions. He placed his hand under
my cheek and gently caressed my skin.novelbin
“I told you, just rely on me, and I will come up with some plan to prevent all this mess from happening. I
am already looking for your pendant, and till then—we can make sure that she doesn’t transition,
okay?” He brought his face closer to mine and whispered, still keeping his hand under my cheek.
