Chapter 135

Lilly

"Tell me what happened Lilly." Conrad seemed to look strange sitting at this table, his large size making it seem miniature somehow but his stare was enough to me know that he was genuinely concerned.

I blew out a small breathe as my swollen eyes met his, swallowing hard.

"Zain tried to kill himself last night. He slit his wrist." My bottom lip trembled.

His usual frown deepened as he brought up his hand and rubbed the beard of his beards in thought.

"He is alive but in critical conditon though." My stomach clenched, my wolf whimpering,

wanting us to go to our mate. "But that's not all. Dan... the reason Zain killed him when he saw him wasn't out of jealousy or revenge but

out of fear- for me."

Glancing down at my hands, I turned the emerald ring I always wore, round and round my finger as a distraction from looking into Conrad's intense stare.
