The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 561

Chapter 561: ERIK’S LOSS

Uther stormed out of the throne room

An irritated Erik followed him out of the room.

He considered speaking to Xaden about Uther. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

But he didn’t have any proof.

Xaden might know something was off about Uther, but not enough to suspect him in anything serious.

After all, Erik reporting to Xaden because Uther was caught in a chair?

Sounded like a petty crime.

He watched as Uther marched off and then from nowhere Fiona emerged and crashed right into Uther.

"Oooof!"

She fell to the ground alongside Uther.

"Watch the fuck where you’re going. Whore!" Uther said disrespectfully as he angrily got up to his feet.

"Rude much?" An annoyed Fiona responded back.

But Uther was already up on his feet and marching off.

Erik was by her side in a split second.

"Are you okay?" He asked her as he offered a hand.

She ignored him and tried to get up on her own but failed.

She tried again and still failed.

She looked at him to see his offered hand still looking at her.

For a second seemed hesitant.

Eventually she gave in.

He helped her rise up from the floor.

"What’s his problem?" She asked .

"Things aren’t really going his way so he is throwing a tantrum." Erik replied.

Fiona snorted in disgust and then looked at the floor.

"Goddess! Look what the bastard did!" She scowled.

Scattered on the floor were petals of white lilies Erik was just noticing for the first time.

"Next time I’ll claw your eyes out!" Fiona shouted at Uther but he was already gone.

She hissed and bent down to the floor to pick up pieces of the flower petals.

"Someone got you flowers?" Erik asked unable to hide the jealousy that grew within him.

"No." Fiona mumbled in annoyance. "I got them for-

And then she flashed her eyes up at him. "And how is any of that your business?"

He gave a slight shrug. "I was just asking."

She gave him a glare and then continued picking up the stems of the flower.

"It doesn’t concern you." She said. "But it’s for Jasmine’s daughter’s grave. Now I have to get a new set."

He felt a twist in his gut.

Guilt.

He still didn’t know where the grave was.

"I see." He nodded. "I could help you get some new ones if you need any-

"I don’t need your help." Fiona shot back. "Never needed it."

Erik could tell she was still angry with him.
