CHAPTER 7 Deceived And Humiliated

  Alyssa's POV

  I practically skipped home, unable to believe after I was ready to give up that the King heard my plea and wanted to help me. I couldn't help wondering what his proposition would be though. I just knew the sooner I had our mate bond broken and I could leave this world, the better.

  Arriving at home, I pushed through the front door and within seconds Derek was by my side.

  "Babe!" He exclaimed "Where did you go? I missed you,"

  I know I didn't even have to say anything, my face probably spoke them for me. Was he kidding? Missed me? I guess it was easy to even consider me while he had his cock inside my best friend. Even my thoughts were sarcastic.

  "Oh," I smiled, putting my bag down. I leaned into the hug as Derek wrapped his arms around me "I was just out doing some jobs,"

  I lied, knowing I had to keep up the act before I had been to see Travis tomorrow. Act natural, as if I was oblivious to my mate and best friend's secret affair.
