Chapter 57: Chapter 57

Cassandra's POV

"What are you thinking???" Asked Wilson who pulled me away from everyone after I started getting to know a number of people

"I'm thinking of why," I replied as we walked out of the hall

" Any reason ??"

“Why is life suddenly smiling at me?” I told him to tighten his grip on my hand

“Maybe because she has never smiled at you before and it is time for her to do so,” he told me

"Maybe, maybe she's just preparing something worse for me," I replied in a whisper, stopping to walk

"What's wrong with the pessimism, Cassandra?"

"It's not pessimism, it's a reality I've lived with all my life," I told him

“But in that reality that you lived in before, it was not me, but now I am, Cassandra.” He told me to nod, let us walk back.

"Black Shadow Flock: Its Alpha was killed three years ago and the Beta was forced to take the position because the Alpha had no heir, Cause of killing: Hate and greed for office, Evidence: Living witness to the killing," said Wilson as he listed my file, which I know well.

“Really sometimes I think whether the council is stupid or something like that,” he told me

" How do ??"

“I mean, how would a 7-year-old girl be able to kill an alpha with ease, and how would a girl her age covet a high position?”

“Perhaps it is not the council who has put these charges, perhaps someone from that herd.” I told him while I was avoiding that person because I had never hated someone in my life as much as I hated him.

“Maybe, and he may be the one who killed him and blamed you.” He told me to keep my silence

"It is not far-fetched that this living witness to the murder was the real killer," said Wilson, as he tried to put together the pieces of the puzzle .

"The truth is that the witness to the murder is you," Wilson continued. He was so smart, he didn't need me to say anything to him, because he figured it out himself.

I am the witness to the murder of Alpha Flock of Dark Shadows and the one who knows the truth

"And he must have blamed you as soon as he found out that you testified to that, and he must have been in a high position, so everyone believed him." He said to deduce a new piece of the puzzle .

"Everything I can understand, Cassandra, but I don't understand your relationship to that murderer, because he seems to hate you so much," he said, annoyed in his voice.

"I'm hungry" I told him proof that I don't want to talk about it now

"I'll make something for you," he said as he opened the door of the house so we could enter

"You?? Are you going to cook???" I asked him doubtfully

“Yes, you don’t know that, but the women of my family can’t cook, and I had to learn, and when I say women, I mean my mother and my sister.” He said to me as he headed to the kitchen to follow him and I stood on the side watching him as he started preparing the ingredients

"You have one sister?" I asked him

Yes, she is my only sister and she is three years older than me.

" where is she now ?"

"She is with her companion in the kingdom"

“The kingdom??? Which kingdom?”

“There’s something like that, I’ll explain it to you later.” I nodded

“And what about your parents? Don’t they live here in the herd?”

"No, they... I'll meet you later." He told me to start nervous, what would his parents' reaction, and exactly his father Alpha William, especially since I Roz

“We are no longer Roggs, if you forget, we are part of the herd.” Darren reminded me

'You're right, I must have gotten used to the word that I rogues' I answered

"So you live here on your own?" I asked him while I was trying to get to know him more

“Yes, but I go to visit my father from time to time.” He told me to nod

"What about you? Do you have any brothers?" he asked me

“No and yes… it’s… complicated” I told him as I looked down

"Your parents, I don't mean to offend or something, Cassandra, are they Omega? Because I can't explain why you haven't helped or at least you'll be protected with them or they're dead?" He asked me and I could feel he was trying not to hurt me

"They live... My parents... They are not Omega... But they... They just don't like me... It's complicated" I told him as I played with my fingers and lowered my head to look at her

Just a few seconds later, I saw Wilson's body standing right in front of me.

his

"It's okay... all you need from now on is me and you don't need others," he told me to feel the happiness inside me, it's a strange feeling someone gives you this confidence and security

“Thank you, Wilson,” I told him, and he moved his hand that was holding my chin to surround my face with both hands, before bringing my face close to his and placing his forehead above mine.

He closed his eyes enjoying our closeness to close my eyes too After a few moments I opened my eyes

“There is a smell of something burning,” I said to Wilson, who still closed his eyes

“Yes, maybe my heart.” He spoke as if he was not in this world

"Wilson, I'm serious about the food on fire," I said, trying to get away from his face

He opened his eyes quickly to go to the food that was already burnt I laughed at the poor food before I moved

"Go away, I'll make something quick for us." I told him as I took him away to see the ingredients

"You? Do you know how to cook?"

"Yes, why do you look so surprised?"

“I thought the curse of not cooking for our women would be yours too.” He told me to laugh and remember his mother and sister were bad at cooking.

I started making food and I feel him watching me after I finished we sat down to eat

"It's delicious, you really know how to cook"

"Yes, I'm the one I've always done" I told him I don't remember cooking it was a necessary thing

Cooking for them was one of the things I hate but now when I cook for him it feels good and I see him eating my food

"Wilson"

“Yes.” He answered me with a smile that he really liked that I called him by his name

“How did the council guards go that day? I mean, they were here to look for me.” I told him

“They went as they came,” he replied

" what did you say to them ??"

"I didn't say anything to them because I wasn't in a state of mind to think of them," he said, intending to run away

After we finished I left Wilson to clean the dishes and I went up to the room or Wilson's room I opened my bag and looked at my clothes I no longer have suitable clothes

" What is the matter ?" Wilson asked as he entered the room and closed the door behind him

“I must go tomorrow or the day after tomorrow to the human city.”

" Why ?"

"I need clothes, they don't fit much anymore."

"Okay, I'll take you the day after tomorrow, because tomorrow I have some work." He told me

"I can go alone, I'm not a child" I told him and he started laughing

" Why are you laughing ??"

"I don't trust you. Maybe that's an excuse for you to run away from me again, who knows?" . told me

"Okay, I'll go with you, if that makes you comfortable." I said resignedly

“Good to sleep.” He told me as he went to the bathroom

" the doors ?" I asked him

"Cassandra closed to bed at once," he told me, as he opened the bathroom door and walked in. I grabbed one of the pillows on the sofa and took her to hug her and lay on the bed
