Chapter 128
Aaliyah
Closing the door behind me, I took a deep breath as I sat down on the couch. Just then, the door opened, and I turned my head to see Tristan walk in. Quietly, he walked towards me.
"I did not mean this," he muttered, sitting next to me.
"Did you not?" I asked.
He softly held my chin, leaning closer, and kissed my lips. He sucked on my lips, placed a hand on my shoulder, and pulled me closer.
Anger rose inside me when I remembered what happened this morning. I quickly pulled away, and his gaze softened.
"You hurt me today," I said. "I was only trying to help you out. You cannot just start a war all of a sudden."
"I am sorry for my treatment towards you," he said. "I was not thinking straight at that time."
"I understand you are doing your duty as a King to protect the throne," I said. "But what if the war never ends?"
