My knees wobbled as I stood up away from the toilet. Before leaving, I had to make sure to flush the toilet. When I left the bathroom, I saw my mate enter our room.

"What happened?" Blake hurriedly went to me.

"Just an upset stomach," I lied.

"You sure? I don't want to leave you knowing that you're sick."

"I am fine," I cut him off.

I don't want to hear any nonsense from my Alpha. Contrary to what he said, he always leaves for work or because of Viviene whenever I am sick. Viviene often gets sick, and since she is an orphan and has no one else to rely on, I always believed what he said because he is Alpha, and he needed to take care of everyone in the pack. But I also have no one to rely on because, for my mate, I can do everything alone.

Blake helped me go back to bed.

"Sir?"

My eyes widened when I heard that familiar voice. Then a knock came after that. I looked at my mate, asking for an explanation.

The alpha sighed, "She slept here last night. After you go to bed, something happens in Viviene's apartment. There was a fire, and instead of going to a hotel or something, I told her to stay here for a while until she finds a new flat."
