Alpha Dominic
Chapter 100

still Bethany's POV

“I know how hard this must be for all of you, but believe me, it's not so easy for me as well. Believe me, I know exactly how you feel, I once believed that I've lost my family in one night and I was so devastated and miserable. I even blame their death on someone that I thought was a monster and I hated him with all my heart, I even wished to kill him myself. But now know better and I wished I didn't spend all those years hating him. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that you shouldn't moan your mom in your own way, I'm not saying that you shouldn't hate your mom's murderer either, that Lucas. guy is a bastard and I'm so glad that he is now dead, he got exactly what he deserved. But now we have to put it all behind us, we need to move on with our lives, Cici. Don't hate your sister for this, it's not her fault, she never wished for any of thes; to happen. She is a total mess as we speak, we need to be there for her before she slips into depression” I told Ciara after Dwayne took Fiona upstairs.

She still has that unconcerned look on her face, her face is just blank and expressionless and that is why I had to pry into her thoughts to know exactly what she is thinking. She did not respond to anything I said to her, she just sat there and stare at me dazedly, it is so easy to tell that she is lost in her thoughts. Apart from that, she looks like she isn't even feeling anything at all, I just can't explain the way she is behaving, it's just so strange. After talking and talking for some minutes, she still didn't say a word to me, I was forced to tap her on the shoulder to get her attention because it looked like isn't ever listening to me. I yelled in pain when my skin made contact with hers, I don't know why her skin is so cold, but I can feel her pain and I know that she is in so much pain. Her pain is so severe that it burned me to my very bones, I have no idea what could be causing her so much pain, it would almost seem like her pains are way greater than the death of her mother, or could she be hurting this much because of the death of her mother, it's not possible right, or is it?

“What the hell is wrong with you, what happened to you Cici, you are in so much pain. Oh my God, why are you so hurt, is it because of mom's death, did something happen to you? You can tell me anything, Cici, we can pull through this together, yo are not alone in this, we are in this together, just tell me where you hurt, tell me what is wrong with you." I pleaded softly, pulling her into my arms, feeling her pain once more. I need someone to help me out in this, there is something wrong with this girl, I just can't place my fingers on it. I can only feel it, but I can't help her when I don't know what is wrong with her, I can't find a solution to a problem that I don't know about, I don't know what to search for and I have no idea where to start from, the only lead I have is the guy standing right behind us, that lover of hers whose name I have never bothered to memorize. He has been standing behind me all this while, gazing down at us. I tried to listen to his heartbeat, but there was nothing to find out there because his heart was beating at a steady pace, it never skipped a beat and it never went up, it wa: just normal. It is either he has perfected the art of lying and controlling his heartbeat or maybe he knows nothing about what is happening to her. The best thing to do right now is to have a little talk with him alone, maybe he would point me in the right direction, he could know something or maybe he has noticed something strange about her, I really can't say, but I need to find out, and that means I need to find a moment to talk to him alone.

“Cici, you can't keep silent forever, you can't keep all your feelings locked in, you need to let me in, you need to tell me what is wrong with you so I can help you. Your sister asked me to look after you and take care of you and Fiona, I'm sorry to have neglected you two, I've been so busy Cici, you have no idea what I've been doing all this while. I'm so sorry Ciara, but you have to open up to me right now, you have to tell me what is bothering you, you need to let me help you. In a few days, we would meet up with Gracie to plan your mother's funeral, but I can't let you go to mom's funeral with you looking like a ghost. I want to help you, I want to be there for you, but you have to let me in, tell me how you feel, Cici, let me in. Who is th cause of your anger, who is the cause of your pain, who do you blame for all this, is it your sister, do you blame her, do you hate her now, is that why you are so angry, is that the reason for your pain? Please talk to me.” I kept pleading, but I could as well be talking to a statue because that is exactly how she looks like, she sat there like a f*****g mannequin, and she didn't respond to my words, she just keep gazing into space, staring into thin air. I was about to say more comforting words to her, but she wasn't going to let me continue, she stood up and walked towards the staircase, going back to her room, she didn't say aword to me and it was so infuriating,

“How long will you keep your pains in your heart, you can't blame your sister forever Ciara, you can't hate her forever. You need to let go of your pain and anger” I called out after her, making her stop in her tracks, but she never turned to face me, she kept her back to me as she said,

“You are wrong Beth, it's not her fault. It's all my fault” She responded calmly, then she continued walking up the stair with me staring after her in shock.

“I'll go after her, milady, I'l go make sure that she is okay” Her lover said to me before turning to go after her

“Wait,” I called after him, causing him to pause in his movements.

“I want to have a word with you," I told him pointedly. At that moment I heard his heart skip a beat, but it changed immediately and resumed its steady beat, so I'm guessing that I had made a mistake the first time. He turned around with a smile and came to stand in front of me.

“How may I be of help to you, Milady?" he asked with a bow that looks like a mocking now. I would have considered it flattering if it was any other occasion but right now I'm so pissed and I don't wish to be flattered by anyone.

“Don't butter me up, Mr."

“It's Fabius ma'am. Fabius Moran.” He retorted.

“Whatever. I have no time for your flattering, I just need you to tell me what is wrong with Ciara. You spend more time with her than any one of us, so I'm assuming that you have an idea what could be wrong with her. I told him straightforwardly. “I'm so sorry, ma'am, but I have no idea what could be wrong with her. She was perfectly okay before we came down here, I' guessing it has something to do with her mother's death. But don’t worry about it, I'm going to find out exactly what it is anc when I do, you'll be the first to know.” He responded with a smile. I had no more questions for him, so I nodded my head in “agreement with what he had just said, then he turned around and headed up the stairs without looking back. I just stood there and stared at his retreating back, wondering what to do about all this. I decided to go to Dominic with this issue, if there is anyone that can help me get to the root of this matter, it is Dominic and no one else. I went back to our room to search for him, but he wasn't there, so I mind-linked him to find out where and he confirmed to me that he was in his office, so I went right there to seek him out. I need him to help me out with this, there is something wrong with Ciara, she is in pain and I need to know what it is so I can help her.

I found him in the office as he said, but he wasn't alone like I expected him to be. Carl, Harriet, and Justin his tech guy we're there as well and they all looked so busy, planning a mission or so I guess. When I got inside, they all looked up and smiled as we exchanged pleasantries. I walked to where Dominic sat on his chair, hoping to convey my concerns to Dominic, but he dashed my hopes to the wind when he said,

“Good thing you are here, my love. We were just planning our mission carefully, I don't want any mistakes.” He let out calmly I looked at him in surprise, wondering what he was talking about.

“What mission are you talking about?” I asked him pointedly.

“I told you we are carrying out the mission as planned, didn't I? We are still luring the moles out and I will get them this time.” He responded firmly. I couldn't say one word in response to him, I mean are you ****g kidding me, why is he still ber on carrying out this mission, is he trying to get me killed or what?
