422 SHE WAS INSANE

This was not the first time for Liam to have done this, though he didn’t raise his hand often. And this was the first time he did so since he returned from East Draghar, and Jasmine was in utter shock to say anything.

If anything, she stopped assaulting Liam for the news that she heard about Darius.

She couldn’t think twice and immediately confronted Liam in the nursery room, the only place that he would visit often aside from his office room.

He would make a good father if it was not for his twisted side. He cared so much about his twins and would drop literally everything that he was doing if he heard they needed him.

The twins were almost a year old and they started to make sounds, while Liam was trying to coax them into calling him father. He wanted that to be their first word.

But now, because of the commotion that Jasmine had created, the twins, Aiden and Emma were crying, but the alpha did nothing to comfort them, as his eyes stayed fixed on Jasmine.

“Kill me,” Jasmine said. “I am done. You can kill me.”

That was what she said. She wanted him to end her misery and what she said had left Liam oblivious to his babies’ cries.

“End this. I don’t want this life anymore,” Jasmine said. She didn’t say it out loud, but Liam could hear it loud and clear on top of the sound of his crying babies. “Kill me now.”

.....

Jasmine raised her head and then looked at Liam with sorrow in her eyes. There was no more fire or ambition in them that once Liam adored the most about her. She looked like an old woman on the verge of her death, welcoming her end with open arms.

How old was she right now? Liam thought to himself.

Ah... two months and she would be thirty eight years old, but she shouldn’t look this old. She looked like a woman in her early fifties now. The stress had taken a toll on her and she had stopped taking care of herself.

But even so, was he disgusted by her? Did he hate her for that? Surprisingly, the answer was; no.

Liam had never imagined himself with someone else, except with her, but he couldn’t forgive her either for what she and her people had done to his pack members, all of those fights between them...

It was not something that you could forgive or forget.

“If you still feel love for me, even if it is only a little bit, please spare me.” Jasmine didn’t cry, she had run out of tears already. “Kill me.”

Liam didn’t answer her, he didn’t do anything. He just stood there in silence. He didn’t even do anything when his babies cried their hearts out, looking for comfort, until two guards came into the room. They looked wary, because the atmosphere was so suffocating inside this room, but they couldn’t actually ignore the babies.

Therefore, each of them took a baby and walked out of the room again, leaving the two of them alone, as they didn’t dare to utter a single word.

Once the babies were out, the silence returned, but the air around them felt heavier than before. Both of them only stared at each other for a long time after she asked him to kill her.

But then, something happened, Jasmine snapped as she rushed toward Liam swiftly, her eyes all cold.

historical

At first, Liam thought she wanted to attack him, thus he stepped aside, ready for her assault, but then he frowned because Jasmine didn’t even stop when she couldn’t reach him, instead, she ran as fast as she could toward the glass window behind him.

Everything happened in slow motion in Liam’s eyes when he realized what Jasmine’s intention was. His eyes widened in shock and thankfully, his body acted faster than his mind in this situation, because the next thing that he knew, Liam had rushed after Jasmine.

However, it was too late, Jasmine had run toward the window so hard she slammed herself against the glass, as it cracked and in her second attempt, the glass window was broken.

Without thinking twice, Jasmine immediately picked up the largest piece of glass from the shards lying scattered around her feet. She didn’t care that the sharp edges of the glasses cut into her skin, as she bled. She literally had small pieces of glasses stuck to her body, while she took the big piece and put it against her neck.

It was a miracle that Liam came in time to hold her hand, so he could prevent her from slicing herself, her neck.

His heart beat so fast to witness this madness.

He had never seen Jasmine lose all hope like this. She always appeared so fierce and bold, therefore, to see her in such a state, it left a bitter taste in his mouth.

Was it because of Darius? She was at a loss because of that man? Did she love him?

“WHAT THE HELL YOU ARE DOING!?” Liam screamed in her face, but she didn’t even flinch. At this point, it was not only Jasmine, who was injured by the glass shards around them, but Liam as well.

But, the alpha was a shifter, this was nothing to him. He would heal within a few minutes. But Jasmine, this was a huge deal for her. And she hurt herself because of that man?!

She wanted to kill herself because she couldn’t see him again?! Liam was enraged. He really wanted to kill her. He really wanted to let her hand go, so she could go through with her plan to kill herself.

But, he couldn’t...

Fuck this mate bond between them! It should have disappeared after they separated a few years ago when the capital city was in chaos.

But, why? Why couldn’t he still let her go?! Why did he still want her?!

“STOP IT, JASMINE!” Liam snatched the shard from her hand.
