Semua Bab Omega's Curse: Desired by the beast who shouldn't want me : Bab 61 - Bab 65

Hermosa POVI woke up to find the Alpha King seated in a chair close to my bed. My eyes struggled to form a complete picture of him. I remembered waking up earlier, blabbing rubbish from my mouth, and then drifting back to sleep. I groaned internally; I hoped I hadn’t said anything incriminating.The claw marks had already vanished from my skin as if they were never there. I had never healed that fast from an injury before, nor had I ever taken on an Alpha by myself. Something was changing within me ever since that strange painting at Raphael’s. I felt strong and, at the same time, weak. Weak, because Cammy was somewhere in that Shadow Pack while I lay here comfortably.My attention shifted to the Alpha King. His shoulders were tensed as he stared blankly at the door, all his concentration firmly planted on it. He didn’t even know that I was awake. I coughed to get his attention."What is going on?" I asked with little effort.Too late. His eyes snapped quickly away from the door to

Hermosa POVMy eyes trailed his movement as he approached my bedstand. He came back, announcing his presence like I cared—even though I did. I was scared of staying alone with his Beta, and his presence was comfortable.His question sounded like interrogation, trying so hard to learn more about my past; but I will be damned to reveal an inch of myself to the man that killed my best friend.Eyes blue like the ocean sea melted my resistance.

If I could get my best friend and get out of here, my reason for living will be complete.I just have to play along. His fingers grazed my lips and moved quickly to my neck in a failed attempt to choke me.

Hermosa pov I was so eager to meet her that I didn't notice the odd way everywhere looked. Tall wall glasses that reached from the ceiling down to the floor stretched wide to create a barrier between the patient and whoever was outside.I saw my Cammy lying on the bed hopelessly as tubes strapped across her lips. My knees dropped as I watched a once-lively Cammy reduced to nothing.“This… is not Cammy, my best friend.” I pointed at the glass from where I stood. “This can't be her!” My voice rose.“Calm down.” His husky voice trailed through my disbelief. “She's been in a coma for a month now.”“A month??” I scoffed.“Yes, more than that.” He scratched his head. “I don't keep count anymore.”My heart sank. With everything I had heard, while I was practicing my escape, she was here lying like this with no one around her. A sob choked in my throat as tears streamed down my cheeks. I felt useless and powerless.“I want to know everything.” My voice cracked, revealing my emotions.“You do
