Chapter 64

• I sat unmoving for a long time after the confession. I wasn’t able to give Alpha Damien an answer. Unlike me, Alpha Damien was not frozen. He was not only calm but kept his sophisticated composure as he continued to eat as if this was all perfectly normal.
• Even after dinner, when we went back to his car. Even when we arrived home. I was just a frozen statue that Alpha Damien was carrying around with him.
• Once he sat me in my room, I reflexively grabbed hold of my teddy bear and embraced it. Then I looked up at Alpha Damien. He always looked pleased every time I sat hugging the bear, and he smiled again. He’s not acting differently at all? Is this a dream? Did I dream that Alpha Damien confessed to me? Did I fall asp while I was eating? Wouldn’t it make more sense if it was a dream?
