Chapter 13
Willow hated herself for what she had done. After she watched Killian left, she managed to catch a glimpse of him before the ship sailed.
Unfortunately, she couldn’t get a ticket for herself in the last minute and if she wanted to go to the main island, she needed to wait for the next ship, which was two weeks from now.
However, the look on Killian’s eyes when the ship took him away, would forever haunt her because she saw coldness, indifference. Those the same eyes that used to look at her with love, as if he was going to go through fire if it meant he could be with her, but right now, there was nothing left.
He didn’t even budge when he saw her crying.
“What have I done?” Willow cried so hard.
She returned to the same inn that Killian occupied and demand the same room, the room that he used the previous night. She didn’t even allow them to clean it up because she missed him so much, she wanted to be able to smell his scent.
She regretted her impulsive decision to get away with her destined mate. She thought, as long as she had love for him, she could face everything.
As it turned out, being poor and had to live in that way didn’t suit her at all. Love alone was not enough, even the mate bond was not enough to make her living situation with her destined mate became more bearable.
“What have I done? What should I do now?” Willow was certain that she was going to go to main island to beg for Killian’s forgiveness, but how she could find him in such big area? Main island was the central of the capital city, where the palace was.

Thankfully, four days later, her parents came, they figured out that Willow must have come after Killian, but after the date Killian departure had passed and Willow still had not yet returned, they became worried and looked for her here.
“You don’t know anyone in the main island, Willow,” Abigail was crying when she heard what her daughter wanted to do. Please, go home with us. The alpha will be able to find your sister and he will return with her too.”
“No!” Willow wailed. “No! I have to talk to him again before he could find Althea!”
Willow’s eyes were puffy and her lips were chapped because she had been crying for days. She couldn’t let Killian met with Althea first. She needed to talk to him first and make him understand how much she regretted her action.
She still believed that there was still a little bit love deep inside him for her. There was no way he would be able to forget about her very easily.
“Willow, please, understand. You are not in the position to demand this from him…” Brian tried to talk sense to his daughter. “This is the consequences of your action, you need to live with it and let the alpha to find his happiness.”
“No!” Willow shrieked. “His happiness is with me, he said it to me himself!” Willow didn’t want to accept what her father said.
“Don’t talk like that to our daughter! You only make her feeling even worse,” Abigail reprimanded her mate. She tried to calm Willow down again, because she was crying so much now.
Althea is pregnant with his child, how are you going to do with that fact?” Brian threw the reality to their faces and this only made the two women became even more furious.
“We will think about that later.” Abigail looked at Brian sternly, as if telling him not to bring up this topic. “Killian had rejected Althea after all and I don’t think Althea is going to accept him. They could raise their child together without being together.”
“You are insane,” Brian said in disbelief.
“Why don’t you help me?” Willow looked at her father, she looked so hurt and this made Brian unable to say anything to bring them back to the reality of the situation.
“Don’t worry, don’t worry, we will go to the main island, okay? We will go with you to find the alpha,” Abigail reassured her daughter. “We have a property there, we can live in the capital city and look for the alpha, okay?”
“Are you insane? Are you telling me that we are going to the capital city now?” Brian shook his head.
“If you didn’t want to go, I will go with Willow.” Abigail then added. “I need to see Althea too. Don’t you want to see her?”
It had been a week ever since Killian arrived in the main island and he purchased a house to live with his five warriors, so it would make thing easier for them when they looked for Althea in this big city.
However, the result was very depressing. He couldn’t find her and it close to two week they were here.
Of course, two weeks were such a short time, but it drove Killian insane to think they were in the same city, but he still couldn’t catch a glimpse of her. She was so close, yet so far away from his reach.
But, thankfully, three days later, they found a clue about a woman with the same description as Althea. She was pregnant, around seven months pregnant and she worked at the flower shop.
Killian didn’t know much about Althea, because his focus was on her sister, but he knew that she loved flower, thus he had a strong feeling that it must be her.
“Where does she live?” Killian stood up from his seat. It was already night, but he couldn’t wait until tomorrow. He wouldn’t be able to sleep either.
“She rented a small room, I will take you there,” Gabriel said.
Killian didn’t wait for another second and went to see her, but his heart sunk to see where she lived.
