The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 582

Chapter 582: UNANSWERED QUESTIONS

Here I was standing with a creature that I didn’t even know existed tell me that I had died because I sang some loudly song stuck in my head my entire life.

Nothing made sense.

All I entered to do was tell her that she was confused and lying.

That I had never died.

"You don’t know me." I said. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

"That is true." She agreed.

I scoffed at her. "So who are you to tell me that I died? Do you know the kind of life I’ve lived? Everyone hated me. Growing up no one loved me. If I was dead no one would want to bring me back to life. In fact everyone would rejoice! Jasmine is finally gone. That’s what they will say, not bring me back to life."

She simply watched as I ranted on and on.

"I’ve never even been to this sea before. I’ve only been on a ship once and it was a very horrible experience and I never met a siren. So that’s why I say you are wrong." I insisted annoyed. "And you said it yourself didn’t you? No one has brought anyone back to life in almost a thousand years. Anyone who is a thousand years would be dead and gone by now."

"I am over a thousand years old." She told me.

My mouth dropped.

"I thought you were within my age?" I gasped wondering why she looked so young.

"In my Siren years I’m within your age. But in true years I’m one thousand and twenty years old." She said simply.

I just started unable to blink.

"But you are right. It hasn’t happened in over a thousand years so I don’t know why you can sing that song." She told me. "But whatever reason it is, the death song does not lie. You died sometime."

I swallowed in discomfort at her words.

"That’s the one thing I can tell you is true." She said.

"Maybe someone came here and met a siren like how I met you." I explained.

She shook her head.

I dreaded every moment I saw her shaking her head because it meant she was about to prove otherwise.

"You’re the first person who has been here in thirty four years since it’s been banned." She said.

All of a sudden I heard a loud horn blow.

She quickly looked back at the ocean.

"I have to go." She said turning back to the ocean. "I can’t be found here I’ll be in trouble."

"Why?" I asked. "What happened thirty four years ago? Why is it banned."

"Good bye Jasmine." She said.

It was the first time she had called me by my name.

And then I saw her dip into the ocean and her silver tail finally came to light as it went back in.

I simply stood there unsure of what the hell had just happened.

Was this place banned?

If I got caught in here would I be in trouble?

What did she mean I had died before?

And why did I have this sickening feeling that she wasn’t wrong?

I took a breath of the sea air before leaving.

"Nonsense!" Nanny Nia said as she led me to the room. "We have the perfect dress. Everyone is going to be there. You can’t let such a day go to waste."

I wondered if I could tell Nanny Nia about how I had seen the King and Cherry having sex.

When we go to the bedroom Nanny Nia forced me to have a seat.

"Nanny Nia." I started. "What do you think of the King and Princess Cherry?"

She poured tea in a cup and stirred.

"What about them?" She asked me.

"Well...." I began. "I just wondered how they interact."

"Oh. The King absolutely abhors her." Nanny Nia said as she handed me the cup and began slicing cheese on the bread.

"Thank you." I mumbled as I sipped the tea

"You do know that he was supposed to marry Cherry right?" She asked me.

I paused. "I had no idea."

"Well he was. Cherry was supposed to be Queen and it was his turn to be betrothed and mate with the future Queen. But when the crown rejected her, he had to marry Rose." Nanny Nia explained. "And we thank the Goddess for that. She would have been a very cruel Queen."

"So he never loved her?" I asked.

"Gods no." Nanny Nia squeezed her face. "I don’t think anyone can love someone like her. He adores the Queen. Worships the ground she walks on. Why do you ask?

I smiled. "Nothing."

I couldn’t tell Nanny Nia the truth.
