Chapter 143

I know that he’s caused me pain in the past, and I know that he is trying to redeem himself now with these little things. I know that to you it doesn’t make much of a difference to but, can you at least give him a chance? If not as friends, as my own- friend?” Jenna cocked her head to the side, hoping that her little monologue was able to convince him to see the good side of Alpha Axiel. That was if at all Axiel indeed had a good side or one to boast of

His little efforts and flirtatiousness have been nothing but irritating to Miles and he didn’t fail to convey the fact that he wasn’t convinced by this little facade of his. It seemed like Jenna was already convinced that he had changed for good this time, but Miles sure as hell wasn’t. He wasn’t going to buy it. Axiel was nothing but a promiscuous lying being to him and that was never going to change, no matter the tactics he devised in the course of trying to convince him to his side. It was pointless and he might as well just give up, because Miles believed that he could see right through him and that his intentions were anything but pure. A few kisses might have convinced Jenna that Alpha Axiel was a good man, but a thousand flowing and sloppy kisses wouldn’t go anywhere near convincing Miles that Axiel had indeed changed for the better. Miles believed that Axiel was a lost cause and he wasn’t going to change his mind. Instead, he was determined to change his sister’s mind, to perish all thoughts concerning getting back together with him.

Jenna, do

you really believe that man has any good intentions?” Miles asked. Though, he asked a question and questions. were meant to be answered by the person they were directed to, but instead. Miles did her the favor of answering the question even when he wasn’t required to.

“No, he doesn’t, Jenna. We’ve been over this. It’s like a regular occurring pattern. Don’t you see it, Jenna? He doesn’t have any good intentions towards you. It would do you a lot of good to perish the thought that this man actually wants something serious with you.” Miles ranted like a lawyer trying to convince the judge to see his point.

During the cause of Miles tendering his motion to make Jenna see reason why Axiel is a “bad dog“, her mind wandered to the events that had indeed transpired for the past few hours. Axiel had indeed been different. He had acted different and it was almost enough to convince her that he had indeed turned to a new leaf almost enough. Well, it seemed just too good to be true that Alpha Axiel himself, the most irresponsible being would change for good which was a fat lie. It wasn’t happening.

was it?

His gestures had been nothing but gentle and affectionate and that further fueled the doubt that Miles had in him. Miles was completely convinced that Axiel hadn’t any good intentions in him. All he had in mind was just to leave his sister heartbroken after toying with her heart, like he always did and this time, he wanted to make sure that she was sure about letting him back into her life. She shouldn’t make any hasty decisions just because of a few kisses and flirting.

“Jenna,” Miles paused for a second trying to collect his thoughts. “I know I might seem a little pushy, but I only want the best for you.” He turned his gaze to her, creating a scenery for eye contact. This discussion required their minds to connect. He wanted their hearts to be entwined. He wanted her to see reasons. He wanted her to see what he was seeing. To him, she was blinded by Axiel’s charade and he was determined to help her see right through him.

“Axiel has already put you through a lot. You deserve better than him and you know it too. We’ve been over this a lot of times and it saddens me to see that you’re still willing to give him a chance after all that he’s done to you” Miles paused when he noticed that he was already sounding a little bit too sentimental and that wasn’t what he had intended.

He gathered his thoughts and went right for it this time, Jenna, I want you to be happy. Your happiness means the world to me. I only want that for you, I swear. I just don’t want you to make the wrong decision and end up regretting it. I’m just looking out for you.” He said with a calm tone, one that felt convincing. Okay, This was going pretty good. His tone was soft without any form of harshness. It conveyed all the weight of the words he intended to deliver that he loved her and was scared that Axiel would end up hurting her again.

“I just want you to be careful this time. Okay?” He ended as his voice fell into a descending tone.

Jenna gave him a soft smile. She was fully aware of his fears. Axiel’s actions didn’t make it any easier. He was scared that Axiel was going to hurt her again. Even she wasn’t sure why she had defended him when Miles had accused him. It was beyond her reasoning. He had been trying to convince her for the past few hours they had been together and had even proposed to help her brother’s source for a solution to Alexia illness.

“Thank you, Miles. I’ll be careful. I promise, I won’t let my guard down this time.” Jenna assured Miles.

Miles gave her a soft smile. He was glad she heard him out or better still, he was glad she acknowledged his thoughts on

Axiel. It brought warmth and relief to him that she was going to be careful around Axiel.

“Now, can we go?” She gestured to the steering wheel. In her head, she meant to say, “Can you drive now, Miles? Enough of the Axiel talk,”

He let out a soft giggle and gripped the steering wheel, leading them away.

The soft click of the door echoed through the room. Today was one heck of a day.

Miles propped himself on the couch and ran his hands over his face. He was exhausted. He was desperate. He was frustrated. A lot of emotions were presently brewing through him that he couldn’t even seem to give his present mood a name.

Miles headed to the wine cellar as sleep was nearly impossible at the moment. He was too desperate to fall into the tempting hands of sleep. He drew out a seat for himself and propped his elbow on the table, pouring a glass for himself.

His mind again drifted to Seraphina and the proposition she had made about journeying through the Veil of Whispers. The quest indeed required valor. And Miles was valor himself. With a blast of courage, Miles saddled the armor of liquid. courage, he made up his mind that he was going through the Veil of Whispers. He was going to do anything that would guarantee Alexia’s well–being-

He had accepted to go on the quest for Alexia’s sake. Seraphina had given him the map that led to the Veil of the Whispers. The name of the forest itself sent shivers down his spine. Miles, with trembling hands, carefully withdrew the worn map from his pocket.

The texture felt rough against his fingertips and the parchment felt delicate against his

fingertips as he unfurled it. He unfolded the map, revealing the faded markings. The map had indeed lived for ages as the markings were slightly faded.

His eyes focused intently on the aged paper, scanning the intricate path leading to the fabled Veil of Whispers. A cold wind blew past him as he observed the various paths leading to the Veil of Whispers.

This wasn’t the first time he was hearing of the Veil of Whispers; he just never imagined that he would ever embark on a journey to the Veil of Whispers. There had been stories of men who embarked on the quest and never returned, but such fear wasn’t enough to hold Miles back; he was determined to return victorious.

Even when the legends spoke of hidden perils and mystical creatures that guarded the secrets of the Veil. Even the scariest legends couldn’t hold him back. Miles was undeterred. He was unshaken.

He traced his fingers along the outline of the map.
