Huh?

Everyone stared in stunned disbelief at Darius. I could feel the pressure as the room fell into silence, the only sound was the ticking of the clock.

Did Darius just ask her who she was?

He didn’t know her?

I tilted my head, eyes locked on the expressionless man as he kept his cold, unrelenting gaze on Ella.

It didn’t look like he didn’t know her. I mean, they were just eating together and not many people could sit at a table with the Lycan King like that. I highly doubted he didn’t know her.

So… why?

Why did he ask her that?

And clearly, I wasn’t the only one surprised.

Cassian and Zayn both looked confused as they stared at Darius, but even their confusion didn’t compare to Ella’s expression.

Her eyes were practically bulging out of their sockets, and her mouth hung wide open in pure shock and disbelief.

If everyone else hadn’t looked so out of it, I probably would’ve burst out laughing.

But whatever was going on seemed to be making Darius angry.

His eyes flashed a paler shade of white, and his frown deepened as he continued staring at the flabbergasted Ella.

Before anyone could react, a heavy aura, thick with killing intent was pushed straight toward her.

In the blink of an eye, Ella gasped and collapsed to her knees, one hand reaching for her chest as she clutched it in pain.

“I asked you a question,” Darius said, his voice void of all emotion.

“Ah!” she screamed, trembling on the floor.

That finally snapped everyone out of their daze.

Cassian was the first to react, rising abruptly from his seat and bowing his head low in submission.

“M–My king… please allow me to ask for forgiveness. This is Ella, and she is my-” Cassian paused briefly. “My ma

I stiffened, my eyes widening as I stared at Cassian in shock. Even Serena, who stood quietly behind me, froze in place.

What?! Mate? She was Cassian’s mate, yet she’d been all lovey–dovey with Darius right in front of him? What the hell?

Even Darius seemed caught off guard, his head tilting slightly as strands of white hair fell across his face.

“Your mate?” he asked, his tone unreadable.

Cassian nodded with a sigh. “It seems the king has forgotten about this again.”

Darius stared at him in confusion, a frown creasing his brows, and I couldn’t help but find the whole exchange a little amusing

“I have?” he asked, ignoring the fact that Ella was still on the ground, gasping for air.

“Yes! I told you twice already that Ella is my mate. You forgot the first time, the second… and now the third,” Cassian replied with a pout.

A small laugh slipped from my lips as I reached for my spoon and resumed eating before my food got cold.

“I see,” Darius muttered, clearly uninterested. Then his gaze flicked to Ella, who trembled under the weight of his eyes. His tone sharpened.

“Then what is she doing here? I haven’t seen her before, so why is she suddenly eating with us today?”

The entire room went still. Even I froze, my spoon halted mid–air as I turned toward Darius to see if he was actually serious.

From everyone’s expression, it was obvious this wasn’t Ella’s first time here and my suspicion was confirmed when she finally spoke.

“M–My king, what do you mean… my first day? I’ve been coming here for at least two years now!” she stammered, her voice rising in pitch until it cracked.

The moment she realized she’d just raised her voice at the Lycan King, she slapped a hand over her mouth in horror.

Darius, however, simply stared at her. Whether he truly remembered or not, I couldn’t tell, his expression was icy cold. Cold enough to freeze the Atlantic.

Just when the silence in the room felt like it could suffocate us, Darius turned to Cassian and muttered,

“Mate or not, I don’t want to see her here again. The next time that I do… I will end her life.”

I gasped, so did Cassian and Ella. Only Zayn had an amused look dancing on his face as Darius rose from his seat.

I watched him approach Cassian, stopping right beside him as he asked,

“Do you understand?”

Cassian’s eyes widened where he stood, his breathing heavy. But even without Darius’s cold glare, something told me this wasn’t a

bluff.

Cassian knew that too. Because the next second, he bowed his head slightly and responded, voice tight with restraint,

“Yes, I understand, my king.”

With that, Darius turned away, walking off without so much as a backward glance. Everyone watched him leave, tension still hanging thick in the air.

But just before he disappeared from sight, he paused.

Then he turned to me.

My heart nearly stopped as his piercing gaze locked on mine. My breath caught in my throat, and I couldn’t help the way my spoon slipped from my fingers, clattering softly onto the table.

“And you,” he said, tone low and final, “we are going somewhere by twelve this afternoon. Be ready before then.”

I blinked, barely registering his words before instinct kicked in. I lowered my head with a tight, nervous smile.

“O–Of course, my king! Haha, of course,” I said, laughing awkwardly.

But he only stared at me, blank and unreadable, before finally turning and walking away.

I could’ve sworn everyone let out a breath of relief the moment Darius disappeared, myself included.

My goddess, that man was terrifying. He had no problem threatening his Beta’s mate so easily.

I couldn’t help the sneer tugging at my lips, nearly cursing my own luck out loud.

Why, Goddess? Why did you make this man my mate?

“M–my–king, my king, I–please forgive me, please forgive me!”

Ella suddenly panicked, scrambling to her feet as soon as Darius was gone. I turned to her with an eye roll.

When Darius was still here, she couldn’t say a word but now that he was gone, she was making a scene?

“My king, my king… please forgive me-”

“Would you stop screaming?” Cassian snapped with a sharp glare. She froze, then started crying as she stumbled over to him.
