Nicki left the Alpha's chamber after he was done with her in low spirits and failed to notice her guides, who were headed her way with Ariana following them right behind.
"Nicki, what happened? What did he say?" Astrid was the first to grab her, bombarding her with questions and not minding the kind of stares the guards at the doorpost were giving her.
"Hey, say something. We are worried," Astrid shook Nicki to pull her back to her senses as she was looking like an abandoned soul. Did the Alpha say something that bad to her?
"Uh?" Nicki slightly shook her head after Astrid shook her and it helped make her return to her senses immediately. What was she even drowning herself with thoughts in?
"What happened there? Was Nene…" Astrid quickly trailed off before she could finish her sentence when she sensed she wasn't supposed to tell Nicki what she wanted to in front of the guards at the doorpost of the Alpha's chamber.
