I Can't Help But Love You

[RANIA]

"I can't reject you."

"Why not."

"Rani–"

"If you are going to be a coward then at least face me while at it."

"R–"

"Why can't you fucking reject me?"

"Bu–"

"Why?!"

"Because I'm not your mate anymore, okay????" Jihoon said frustratedly as he looked at the woman he loved so much. 

It was breaking him, seeing her desperately wishing for the worst. It made him feel like he had been useless all this time and here and now, the universe was carelessly proving it to him again. What the hell was he even supposed to do with this information? 

How the hell was he supposed to make up for what had happened? 

The shock on Rania's face was evident, the surprise so clear as she faltered. She hadn't expected this when she came here. She had come to give him a  chance, a choice to live a free life, but realizing that he wasn't mated to her?
