Countdown 15 Departing From the Alpha (Evelyn) novel Chapter 111

Chapter 102 

In fact, Celia did not feel anything when she said those words, although she also thought she would 

feel a little bit hurt. 

“Why are you alright?” He asked with heavy breathing and a hand on his chest. 

“Why are you not suffering as I am?” He asked again, when she did not show the smallest of 

emotions. 

“How could you do this to me? Why? Is it because of the king?” Rayan asked almost yelling and did not wait for her to answer, because only when he said the last two words did her eyes waver. Only 

then she showed a little emotion, but it was not directed to him. 

Angry, his eyes darkened and his claws extended. 

He was going to hurt her, he wanted for her to be at least physically hurt because of him, as he was incapable of hurting her emotionally. 

He jumped towards her with his clawed hand, attempting to harm her, but he was stopped. He did not even get near her, when a shadow stepped in front of her. 

t 

Salas’s rage and alpha aura could be felt even in the ballroom. His deadly aura was leaking everywhere, making those present at the ball hold their breath and bow in submission, even though they were not present in the same room as him. His normal blue eyes were now as black as night and his fangs protruded his mouth. 

“She is mine!” Do not put your dirty paws on her again, if you do not want to die!” He raged, through his protruding canines, strengthening his hold on Rayan’s neck with his clawed hand. 

Rayan was at this moment, held by the neck in the air, not touching even with his toes the floor. 

Celia’s heart trembled at his intervention. He called her his, she was so startled by his words that her face became as red as a strawberry and her feet turned to jelly. He affected her so much that she did not even realize what Salas was currently doing. 

Rayan 

was rapidly losing his breath, the hold on his neck was so powerful that barely any air passed through his throat and into his lungs. He was gasping for air while also trembling, because of the suffocating aura. He was moments away from passing out and even dying. 

Fortunately, Celia recovered from the startle and reacted before it was too late. 

Your highness please let him go!” She pleaded, going over to Salas’s side. But Salas was too Diniersed in his rage to see her. 

“Your highness please let go!” She pleaded again louder, but he still did not react. 

Thinking of what to do, she clenched her jaws and steadied her heart. Looking at his face that did not seem to notice her presence upset her, it made her sad that she was not reflected in those blue eyes that now were black as night. She raised her hand and gently put it on his arm, but she still did not manage to move him and make him look towards her. 

“Your highness, please look at me!” Cella said and slowly raised her hand from his arm and cupped his cheek with her palm. 

Her warm touch comforted Salas a bit, clearing his mind. It was the first time she had made such an intimate gesture towards him of her own volition. It made him release his hold on Rayan’s neck. Who, as soon as he was released, fell on the floor and started to take deep breaths to compensate for the previous lack of air. 

“Thank you!” Celia affirmed grateful, she knew that to reign in your wolf when it was agitated was difficult, more so for the king, but he did just that for her. 

“Are you happy I did not kill your mate, even though he was trying to hurt you?” Salas asked upset. 

He knew that Celia was rejecting her mate, but seeing her help the alpha, did not sit well with him. He was barely holding on to his control, as Sky was raging in his mind. Depending on Celia’s answer, Salas was likely to lose control again. 

“I do not want you to kill the father of my nephew. I do not want you to leave an innocent child without his father, no matter who that person is.” Celia said quickly, she knew that Salas was about to lose control again. And then she continued to talk, not even realizing what exactly she said next; 

“And I especially do not want you to be called a murderer, because of me! I would not be able to bear it!” She said with a trembling voice. 

Hearing her words, he was still reigning in his wolf, but the last part felt like she was worried about him, so he finally took control properly.
