Ch. 25Chapter 25: Obsession


In the evening I still stayed here at the hospital, watching over the man who was currently resting and sleeping. It's been a week here and I can really see his body recovering quickly. I even once heard that he can go home the next day.

“Alpha Magnus?”

When I heard that familiar voice, I quickly let go of my hand and faced that person, it was Artemis. She just focused on the place where Magnus was so I was very grateful. I immediately went inside the bathroom and tried to peek outside. Fortunately, she didn't notice me 'cuz if she did, maybe I will be squeezed again by the appearance of my twin Mia. Shocking.

"Oh my God... What happened?" she worriedly went to the sleeping man.

My attention was focused again on the door when Beta William entered. "He is still resting. Don't bother."

"Who did this to him?" Artemis asked. "Why until now, the person who did this to him has not been caught?"

"No idea. He forbade me to care about what happened to him, same as with his uncle. He can manage the case himself, as what he said..." Beta William responded with a shrug. "And knowing him... he doesn't trust the police when it comes to solving a case."

"Useless!" the woman yelled at him.

"I thought, you already know him that well?" Beta William asked.

“Of course, I am! I'm just... Ugh! Get ready for me who did this to him, I will make him bald!"

Oh, that was so sass.

Artemis caressed Magnus' cheek with a worried look on her face. Beta William also walked towards the man with folded arms.

“That's all?” Beta William grinned. "That's all you can do?"

"And why?"

"You're just nothing to his mate can do, then. Admit it." I heard teasing in the man's tone.

"Don't compare me with Freya. We have big differences in everything and mine is the only one who can only care for him now. Alpha Magnus treats his mate as trashy slave so don't compare us," the woman replied flatly.

Hey, what?

"First love never dies but true love can bare it, Artemis. Don't push it any further."

"What is your problem?" the woman snorted. "Am I caring you for being obsessed with me, huh? Just shut up, okay?!”

That's why I smell something fishy here.

My nostrils widened and I looked at the two who were constantly exchanging words.

Love is really scary, yes.

"Artemis. You're the obsessed one. You are obsessed with Alpha that even if you kill someone, it's fine with you, just so you can single him out. Obsession can kill you."

"Is that a threat?"

"It's not"

“Then it's not too. My love for him is not an obsession. Why can't you see that?" Artemis' voice trembled in response.

Beta William sighed as he walked closer to the person he was talking to. He slowly took Artemis' smooth hand and caressed it, "You gotta be careful with your love. It is poisonous. And I'll repeat... It can kill you."

I noticed the disgust in Artemis' eyes as she stared at her hand covered by Beta William. "Beta William... Why do you know my feelings better than me? Can you just stop?"

"I can help you to change yourself. You should forget everything and start building memories with me," the man said.

"Wait—what?"

Beta William touched one of Artemis' cheeks which suddenly made the woman stop. "I know you're attached with our Alpha too much because you have been his woman, but let me clarify things to you. You are his woman only for his pleasures. Please, forget everything now. Choose the right way to live."

Beta William is crazy. The line is just like… hit so hard!

I saw how Beta William brought his face closer to Artemis' face that now there was nothing to say or move but the silence that was eventually brought by Beta William's handsomeness because so that I could also notice his gradual approach to the face of the opposite.

"Omg. This is a kissing scene. Fix that, ha! You should really be able to take me," I said in a whisper. I looked at Magnus who now also watched the two without emotion.

Did I say, he was awake a while ago?

"Please. Stop."

I just looked at the two again when Artemis stopped the awkward scene between the two of them. Beta William just looked down because of the disappointment that really made my feelings sad.

"I'm sorry," the man muttered.

And because of the extent of my regret, I just slapped the air, "That's a shame. Why did Magnus watch them? Did he know it's bad luck to fall in love with emos like him? That's it," I promised shaking my head .

"Oh, Alpha!" Artemis happily turned to Magnus. "You're awake. Do you want to eat? What do you need?"

"I'm full," Magnus shook his head.

I shook my head in pity. I whispered, "Hey, poor Beta William. Come here, you're mine now with Prince Malbonte."

"Alpha," Beta William just smiled at Magnus.

Magnus closed his eyes again with a heavy sigh, "You and Artemis should talk outside. Go, take your time."

I smiled at Magnus' words, "What a shame you have, Alpha. I bet it is!"

"We have nothing more to talk about—"

Artemis stopped speaking when Beta William held her hand. "You heard the Alpha. We should talk."

The woman couldn't speak anymore when the man walked out, also because Artemis walked out of nowhere. When the door closed completely, my face seemed to melt as I walked near Magnus.

"What the hell is that... I seem to want Beta William in my life," I continued.

"In your dreams," Magnus quickly replied.

And because someone snuck into my fantasy again, everything was ruined again. No matter what, this man is a thief of joy. Hope his energy as Shepa has dropped and his gone.

Not even a minute had passed when suddenly someone came in and a handsome kid was taken back. I looked up.

"Prince Malbonte?" Magnus said seriously as he was currently adjusting the seat.

“Alpha. How are you?” He approached Magnus then sat on the couch and was still on his fours. "Don't worry. Only Uncle Liam has an idea about this."

Prince Malbonte looked at me and smiled.

Oh, Prince Malbonte. It's so sad to watch him making himself no emotion in front of Magnus as he can.
