Betrayed By The Hero, Loved By The Lord novel Chapter 211

Chapter 211: Coming to his senses (3)

"I’m afraid I cannot help you with this. There was once a time when you suggested that I keep Selene as my wife and take Cassandra as my mistress. Now, you have this great interest in Selene," said Gabriel.

Gabriel didn’t like how obsessed Darius had become. He didn’t realise it was to this degree.

Darius laughed at Gabriel suddenly wanting to step up and act like this was wrong. "You have been in the palace long enough to know that I wanted her. I have made that clear the few times that we spoke. I gave you that advice when you were still married to her."

In Darius’s eyes, Gabriel didn’t have any place to tell him what to do concerning Selene.

"Be careful now, Gabriel. I am the man who makes the order if you will lead the town guards or if you become a servant in the palace. Will you let the woman you believed killed your mother get in the way of what you want? There’s no coming back after this," Darius warned Gabriel.

Gabriel didn’t like the options he was given. Not only did Darius speak of handing over Cassandra but now he also had to stay quiet concerning Selene.

Gabriel still hated Selene but it didn’t sit well with him what Gabriel wanted to do. There was a lot left for him to figure out concerning Selene like if her maid had truly attacked Cassandra or if Selene was behind the attack responsible for his mother’s death.

Before his return with Cassandra, Selene had taken care of his mother and his home. She had always been respectful and now that he calmed down, it made sense Selene’s attitude changed after their marriage was about to fail.

"Do you plan to make Selene your official mistress?" Gabriel asked.

He had to know that Darius wasn’t just going to use Selene and then cast her to the side. There were plenty of other women for Darius to do that to.

"Why? Do you think it would be hard to come to the palace while she is here? I have an easy solution for that," Darius said.

Darius would choose to have Selene in the palace and Gabriel far away from it any day.

"Luckily, you won’t have to see her since you’ll be leading the guards. I hope this won’t change anything between us. It shouldn’t since you are now married to someone else. Also, we should be honest with ourselves that if you finally came to your senses, you were never going to get her back," Darius said.

Unless Selene still loved Gabriel it would never be easy for Gabriel to take her away from Xavier. Not when Darius was struggling to get close to her.

"Xavier sends her around with guards so you will never get close to her. And you did the unthinkable by parading a human in front of a pureblood. Selene is seen as a traitor amongst our kind but did you know the others hate you as well?" Darius shared.

Gabriel couldn’t think of any reason why purebloods would hate him. He brought victory to their war so none of them had to go out to fight. "I didn’t-"

Gabriel couldn’t leave when Darius gave him so much to think about. "What can I do to get them to like me again?" _{freeweɓnøvel.com}
