Chapter 43-2

Dexter widened his eyes as he stared at me, "What?" He yelled as he dropped the paper,

"Amelia, did you?"

"Yes, I did," I responded and watched his wreck his fingers through his hair,

"Are you kidding me? Do you know what the hell you’re doing? Of all the people in this mansion, you chose Scarlett? Do you want to get yourself killed? I can’t even interfere because I’m the Alpha and I have to be just Amelia."

I stared at him in silence, but deep down I was so mad,

"Do you have a death wish?" He yelled, and that was the moment I couldn’t hold back my anger,

I chuckled aloud at him in disbelief, "You believe in her and not me?" I muttered with a shaky voice as I stared at him, "Do you think of me as a weakling? Do you see me as that weak? Why don’t you believe that I can do it? At least Clara believes I win and you should. I yelled at him,

"Clara, what the hell did you tell Amelia?" Dexter yelled as he hit the table,

"Unlike you, I’ve been trying to help her," Clara responded,

"Help her? You’re fucking trying to get her killed or hurt or even injured badly. You know who Scarlett is, Clara. She grew up with us, she received the same training we did, and she’s certainly strong. There’s no damn way Amelia would beat her." He yelled and faced me,

"End this madness right now, Amelia." He instructed but I shook my head,

"It’s none of your fucking business if anything happens to me, Dexter, so why don’t you leave me alone and mind your damn business," I yelled at him and began to run towards the stairs. As I got up, I walked into the room and slammed the door behind me,

The only thought I could process was my foolishness. Why the hell did I agree to a duel with Scarlett? With the way Dexter had talked, I was certainly scared that I might lose and Scarlett would never regard me as Luna of the pack."

I wanted to smack my hand on something but there was nothing I could break at the moment. I decided to take a quick bath under the shower so I could calm my nerves and think properly. About 15 minutes later I stepped out of the bathroom feeling much better,

I lay on the bed and watched as the door opened. Dexter stepped into the room,"Amelia," he called my name, but I darted my gaze away from him instantly,

"Don’t you dare talk to me, Dexter? Why don’t you go to Scarlett, whom you have faith in more than me? I’m cool on my own." I uttered, expecting that my words would make him angry or make him walk away, but instead, he began walking towards me. He sat down on the bed close to me,

"I’m not going to apologize for not wanting you to get hurt, Amelia. You have no idea what you’re doing."

"I do, and I need you to have even the tiniest bit of faith in me, Dexter. You’ve never done that, but this time, I’m asking you to do it because that’s all I need." I uttered with a calm voice hoping that Dexter would let me do it,

I had my fears too but I still chose not to be afraid. There had to be ways I could beat Scarlett with dedication,

Dexter didn’t utter a word for about a minute. Instead, he kept staring into my eyes, and then with a small smile, I heard him say,

"Win, and I’m going to grant you one wish. One wish of anything you desire, Amelia, I promise you."

My heart immediately began to beat fast.

He had faith in me too. With so much excitement, I wrapped my arms around his neck, let out a small giggle, and slammed my lips on his joyfully.
