Chapter 38

[Khayim's POV]

"Alpha Gareth, you and Nayla have broke the mate bond. Please focus on solving the rogue matter and keep your distance."

Once out of Nayla's room, I spoke to Gareth. I hope he doesn't come to shake Nayla's determination again and hurt her again.

In the past 3 years, I couldn't protect Nayla by her side, but now she is in front of my eyes, and I won't let anyone hurt her again, not even an Alpha who is stronger than me. I will do my best to protect her.

"Even though we have broke the mate bond, it does not mean that I have lost my chance. Sooner or later, she will belong to me again. You, a coward who dare not even show your love, have no chance of winning."

His words made me flustered for a moment, and I was worried that it would be heard by Nayla. I've always kept my heart well hidden, and I didn't want it to be a burden on Nayla.
