The Rejected Alpha's Vengeance

Chapter 529 Completely Frozen In Time

[SICARIO]

As he stared at Hudhayfah, Trey could see the stress lines on his face, and that made him want to take them away. When he had asked Hudhayfah if he could let them be happy, Trey hadn't expected a positive answer.

He hadn't expected that the love of his life would be that willing. It came as a surprise to him, seeing as Hudhayfah was a healer who had always put everyone else before him. Hudhayfah had loved everything and Trey wasn't sure that he would want him.

Frankly, even with the mad council members gone, he wasn't sure Hudhayfah still wanted him. Perhaps it was because of the way things had happened, or maybe it was because of the way that the light had left his eyes once everyone was out.

Trey was scared of Hudhayfah and he couldn't even deny it. One word from the beautiful man before him and he would fold without so much as a second thought. It was crazy, and unhinged in one too many ways that it was making him lose his mind. Find exclusive stories on My Virtual Library Empire

"You can breathe now, it's just you and me on the entire floor," Trey said softly when he realized how stiff Hudhayfah had gotten. He had intended to scare the healer and he wanted to explain a lot more than he usually did.

Trey wanted to tell Hudhayfah that he wasn't leaving and yet as he looked at the healer, the most beautiful man he had set his eyes on, different words came from his lips.

"You were frozen in time, angel," Trey whispered as he turned Hudhayfah's chair to match his. He knew this was too risky and that there was a real chance that Hudhayfah would reject him without so much as a second thought.

Perhaps that was not something that Trey was going to deal with today. He was hopelessly in love with Hudhayfah and he couldn't even deny it.

"Why are you truly here, Trey? You had every chance and then suddenly you show up in the name of missing me? You may have convinced everyone else, but you didn't convince me. You didn't come here for me," Hudhayfah said and Trey whimpered.

He should have expected this. His Hudhayfah was a smart man who had managed to stay alive for so long. This was something that he shouldn't have overlooked, but then how the fuck was he supposed to explain to Hudhayfah that he truly was here for hm?

Hudhayfah didn't trust him and that broke his heart. What could Trey do to save face this time?

He just hated that he had managed to be the one to bring in the Russel siblings back into their home. Oh, he knew they would wreak havoc and he also knew he couldn't keep threatening his life.

It was a low blow, one that was way beyond Hudhayfah's expectations. Frankly, even in the worst of scenarios, Hudhayfah knew he would never give up his life. He would fight to live, and enjoy whatever was left for life.

If he had to fight, then he would without so much as a second thought, but then at this point in time, he had tried it for the first time, however fucked it was, and it had worked.

He never thought that Trey would be that concerned about his life and now she didn't know what to do about it anymore.

"Faith, you say? Huh, Trey? Faith?" Hudhayfah asked in disbelief. He couldn't quite understand where his mate got the audacity to be like this.

Surely there was something in the manual for a mate that screamed against what it was that Trey was trying to do here with him, right? What the fuck was this man even on, talking like the world was all sunshine and unicorns?

Faith was not something that came easy for the both of them and Trey should have understood that the moment they had been left alone.

"Please, Hudhayfah. I'm trying to make things work, please," Trey pleaded, his voice trailing off defeatedly but Hudhayfah just scoffed.

Of all the things he had expected to hear today, this was certainly not one of them and he wasn't sure if he was pissed that he had felt this man in or that even with the way Trey was talking, he couldn't help but wonder what was going on in the man's head.

There had to be some pointers in there somewhere, right?

Oh, but Hudhayfah was frustrated.

"You must really be high on shit, coming here and talking to me about faith, Trey. Just because I opened my lips for you and let you touch me, doesn't mean that it's all good and better. I don't even know who the fuck you are!"
