Chapter 0331 Enzo : My brain felt so foggy. No matter how hard I tried, it almost felt as though my eyes were constantly out of focus, like I was walking through a thick mist that was obstructing everything in front of me. That strange girl that looked almost exactly like Selena came running out of the woods, and she tackled Selena, sending her to the ground. They grappled there for a few moments in a shrieking, clawing heap while I stood in complete and utter shock, before I finally came to my senses and pulled her off of Selena.
The girl kept saying strange things.
She kept talking as though we knew each other, but I didn’t know her. I

And so, when Selena opened a portal and took my hand, I went along with her.
When we stepped out on the other side, we weren't far from the Alpha King’s mansion. Selena seemed angry, and for good reason; that girl had muddied Selena’s clothes and wrecked her perfect hair during their fight, and I knew that Selena didn’t like getting dirty. But there was something else that I noticed, too, as she took me by the hand and pulled me toward the mansion. She kept muttering to herself about the other girl.
“That bitch... Thinks she can pull a fast one on me... I'm his mate, not her.” I frowned as I listened to Selena. I thought back to what Selena had told the other girl. She had said “See? He doesn’t even remember you!” It was as if Selena knew the girl, but I didn’t know her for some reason. How could this be? I was so confused.
But I didn’t say anything. Selena was extremely angry, and when I opened my mouth to speak, her nails only dug even harder into my wrist as she pulled me along. I decided then and there that I needed to give her some time to cool off before I tried to say anything about what happened.
Within a few minutes of storming through the woods, we arrived at the
front of the mansion. The guards let us in; it seemed that they, too, realized Selena’s anger and decided notto question anything. I didn’t even know why or when we had left the mansion, so I was just as baffled as they were.
Once we were inside, Selena led me upstairs and down the winding hallways to my room. She then opened the door and pushed me inside.

“Where are you going?” I asked,
putting my foot in the way before she was able to close the door.
Selena paused, her jaw moving back and forth as she grinded her teeth together angrily. “I just need to take care of something,” she said. “I'll be back soon. I promise.” Then, with one final shove, she pushed me into the room and slammed the door shut. I heard the sound of the lock sliding through the bolt, and then her receding footsteps.
I cursed under my breath, my brain still coated in a thick fog. What was going on? It felt as though there was a voice in the back of my head telling me to snap out of it, but I didn't understand why. And when I searched for my wolf to see if he had any guidance to offer, he was fast asleep. It almost felt as though there was some
sort of spell on my wolf that was | keeping him in a coma. He was there, but he wasn’t conscious. This made me nervous; what if something happened and I needed to shift? I couldn’t do that if my wolf was fast asleep and couldn’t be woken up.
