Contract Marriage With Alpha Snow - Chapter 250

Chapter 250: Her Secret Chapter 250: Her Secret *************** CHAPTER 250 ~Zara’s POV~ The soft rays of morning sunlight peeked through the sheer curtains, painting the room in a lively, warm hue.  I blinked awake, my body heavy from the toll of recent events.

Memories from the night before swirled in my mind-Snow’s questions, Kaid’s interruptions, and the secrets I carried.

A knock at the door pulled me from my thoughts.

“Come in,” I called, sitting up slowly.

A maid entered and bowed her head.

Her demeanour was calm and professional.

“Good morning, Lady Zara.

His Majesty has requested that you be moved to your private chambers today.

I’ve come to assist with the transition.” My brow furrowed.

“Private chambers?” “Yes,” the maid said with a polite smile.

“The King thought you’d prefer a quieter, more secluded space to rest and rec1qover.” I sighed, unsure how I felt about Kaid’s constant need to intervene.

But before I could dwell on it, the maid began gathering my belongings and I decided not to argue.

Maybe a change in environment would do me some good.

By the time Snow arrived at the room I had vacated, I was already seated on the balcony of my new chambers, overlooking the sprawling Lycan Palace grounds.

The view was breathtaking.

Rolling hills stretched as far as the eye could see, the forests dense and teeming with life.

The palace itself was a marvel-ornate stone carvings adorned its walls, and the golden spires gleamed under the morning sun.

It was held a different comparison to Snow’s mansion.

This was regal, imposing, and almost otherworldly.

I spent the better part of the morning exploring the room and its attached amenities before settling on the balcony with a glass of raspberry wine.

As I sipped, my thoughts wandered back to the night I met Siona and the revelation she had shared.

A witchy heritage and my rebirth.

I swirled the wine in my glass as everything pressed down on me.

How would Snow react if I told him?

Would he see me as a danger?

A stranger?

Or would he accept me, flaws and all?

Snow’s words from the previous night echoed in my mind: “I know she’s the one you met the night you went missing.” He was already suspicious, and I hated keeping things from him.

Yet, I couldn’t shake the fear that this truth might drive a wedge between us.

“He deserves to know,” Astrid’s voice whispered in my mind, breaking the silence.

“I know,” I murmured, setting the glass down.

“Then tell him, Zara.

You’ve been through so much together.

If anyone can understand, it’s him.

Give him the benefit of the doubt.” I knew Astid was right but deep down, there was this kind of fear that enveloped me.

I never told anyone.

Not in the second life either.  “I’m afraid, Astrid,” I admitted.

“What if he can’t handle it?” “What more do you stand to lose by trying?

You’ve already faced death, betrayal, and enemies who would see you destroyed.

Trusting Snow might be the least dangerous choice you’ve made so far.” “You are right.

It’s the least dangerous and well, this should also test his love for me.” “Exactly.

Besides, he’s got Glacier.

I doubt he’s ever gonna let Snow discard you.” “Well, okay.

Let’s do that then.” I sighed, leaning back in my chair.

Astrid wasn’t wrong.

Snow had proven time and again that his loyalty to me was unshakable.

Maybe it was time I started trusting him with my deepest fears.

A sudden knock at the door interrupted my thoughts.

“Come in,” I said, sitting up straighter.

The door opened, and Snow stepped in, his presence filling the room instantly.

His eyes scanned the space before landing on me.

“He…

he moved you without informing me,” Snow stated rather ask, his voice tight as he fought to control his growl.

I shook my head, a small smile tugging at my lips.

“Hon, I know you have questions.

If you want to discuss them with me, you’ll need to leave your anger and jealousy at the door.” His jaw tightened, but I continued before he could interrupt.

“Thankfully, there’s been no Kaid since morning, so you have nothing to worry about.

This change in environment has actually helped me think.” His expression softened slightly, but worry flashed in his eyes as he rushed to my side in a heartbeat.

He knelt before me, his hands cupping my face as he searched my eyes.

“You haven’t recovered fully,” he said, his voice laced with concern.

“You needed rest, not this thinking…” I smacked his hands away gently, meeting his gaze with a firm look.

“This is exactly why I didn’t mind-link you.

You need to calm down, Snow.

I need you to be at your best, not clouded by anger or overprotectiveness.” His shoulders sagged slightly, but he didn’t pull away.

“Zara, I can’t help it.

Seeing you hurt, knowing you’re carrying all this weight-it drives me insane.” “I know,” I said softly, placing my hand over his.

“But I’m here now, Snow.

I’m safe.

And I need you to trust me to take care of myself too.

Well, sometimes,” I added, knowing he could point out the times I was in danger and he wasn’t wrong.

I was still learning to avoid dangers and I wanted the best for myself and Snow.

He nodded slowly, though the tension in his body didn’t fully dissipate.

“Alright.

But you have to promise me something.” “What?” “No more secrets,” he said firmly, his eyes locking onto mine.

“Whatever it is you’re keeping from me, I want to know.

We’ll face it together.” My breath hitched, and for a moment, I considered telling him everything right then and there.

But the words caught in my throat.

“I promise,” I said instead Snow seemed to sense my hesitation, but he didn’t press.

Instead, he stood and pulled me into a gentle embrace.

“Whatever it is,” he murmured into my hair, “we’ll figure it out.

I’m not going anywhere, Zara.” I clung to him, the weight of his words both comforting and terrifying.

Because deep down, I knew that once the truth came out, there would be no going back.

“Okay.

Here it is.

Snow, I’m a witch.” “W-wait, what?” “And I am reborn.” He stayed still, his mind probably trying to process all I said.

“And it’s my third rebirth.”
