Kapitel 53: 53-Saving Helanie

Kaye:

After I arrived in my room, a heavy sadness settled over me. I couldn't quite understand why, but something about this night just felt wrong. I sank into the bathtub, letting countless thoughts swirl through my mind.

"That mate bond... it has to be just something from the dream prison," I murmured to myself, trying to make sense of everything.

"Dammit!" I groaned in frustration.

Every time I closed my eyes, I recalled the words spoken by Helanie in the dream prison. Could it be?

Was she really abused?

Or was it something even worse--assault?

She had said she didn't want to feel the same way about her body here as she did in the real world. She also mentioned some group of alphas. I sighed heavily and got out of the bathtub. Ever since I returned, I'd started seeing Helanie in a different light. I might have thought she was lying to gain sympathy... if only she was.
