<h4>Chapter 460: 460-He Hates Both Of Me</h4>
<strong>Suki:</strong>
He turned around instantly and pped me across the face so hard I thought my teeth were gone. Even Leysa gasped.
"Don’t ever fucking say her name with that filthy mouth," he screamed. "You hear me?"
My breath caught in my throat.
"And who would tell her, huh?" he continued. "Who would fucking tell her anything? You would have lived to tell her, right? But that’s never going to happen."
At that moment, everything made sense. He had never nned to let me go. He only showed me his worst side because I was never meant to leave.
I was beginning to feel the heat now. This was not supposed to happen.
I had returned to life after months. Something impossible had been done by Joshua, and I could not let it be taken away from me.
"What do you n for me?" I asked Yorick, not understanding the reason behind him putting us in this room. "Why would you want to kill us?"
He had made it clear that it was not something I did that made him angry. But why? Were they just serial killers?
"Come on, think out loud." He snapped his fingers in front of my face, chuckling, resting one hand on the wall behind me as he hunched down to my level.
"I’m not going to tell anyone," I tried again, fumbling over my words.
"Exactly what are you not going to tell the world?" he questioned, squatting in front of me once more.
"Whatever you are doing here, just let me go, please," I pleaded, hinting that I would not even speak about letting go of Laysa. She was not my concern.
"Hm. Oriana, I cannot let you go. That is the bottom line. You have to die. It is important, you know?" he replied calmly.
I started to lose my head.
"Wait. You think I’m Oriana, right?" I asked, pointing at him. "What if I tell you a secret of mine that will," I paused, "help you have something over me so you can let me go?"
Without fear of telling anyone about his secrets, I decided to give him leverage over me. Of course, who would even believe him if he went around telling people? By then, I would have all kinds of knowledge about Oriana with me.
"Really? What if I tell you I don’t care about any secrets? I just want to be done with it," he remarked.
As he spoke, he stepped away, and at that point, I was scared.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
He wandered over to the door and knocked on it, drawing the attention of the warriors as they entered.
"Untie this one," he told them, pointing at me.
"No, wait, wait. What are you doing?" I panicked, struggling as the warriors moved closer to untie me and take me away.
"No, please, please listen."
As they began dragging me with the chains, I fought harder.
"I’ll tell you my truth. I’m not even Oriana. I’m Suki," I screamed at the top of my lungs.
Yorick gestured for the warriors to stop.
"Say that one more time. I don’t think I heard you correctly," Yorick asked me, an intrigued look on his face.
"I’m Suki. I’m not Oriana," I repeated with a wide smile on my lips, because his interest made me think it might be working.
"Really? How could that be possible? You are Oriana. You have Oriana’s face," hemented, stepping closer with his hands tied behind his back.
"So what happened was, remember the shadow earth eater? She grants wishes. I took Joshua to her, and Joshua asked for Suki to be reincarnated. I reincarnated in Oriana’s body. I had a wish too, so I wished for its head. That is how I ended up ying it. Otherwise, do you think Oriana could have killed the monster?" I exined, though it was getting difficult.
While trying to downy Oriana’s body and strength, I was also putting myself down.
Yorick stretched his neck back and nodded until he started tough loudly.
"And you want me to believe all that nonsense? After the lies you have told?" he scoffed.
It was as if Oriana’s character had been damaged so deeply that he did not believe it. Even in a ce where anything was possible in the north, he refused to ept what I was saying.
"I’m not lying. I know why you think I’m lying, but I swear I’m not. I’ll even tell the world that whatever usations Oriana had against you were lies too. I just don’t know how I can do it without separating myself from her," I rambled, starting to panic because he did not seem to believe me. "With a, um—"
"Okay, Oriana, you have lied about crazy things," Yorick replied tly. "And if you really think you can go around talking about some woman being inside your body, then no. But let’s say for a moment that it is true."
He finally shifted his stance, and I sighed in relief.
"Let’s say you are indeed Suki," he added, tapping a fingertip against his chin. "Then I would still want to kill you more than ever. What do you mean you are Suki and I should let you live? You tried to kill Clementine. That is how you ended up dying."
The moment he said that, I could not even swallow.
"So no, there is nothing that can be done now. You’re dying," heughed, making it clear that even if he believed my story, it would change nothing.
"Come on. What are you waiting for? Take her to the monster," he ordered calmly.
My eyes widened, and Leysa, who had been sitting silently in the corner, began to hyperventte.
"What monster?" I asked, feeling like my heart would tear out of my chest.
"Oh, you’ll see him," he replied, and that was all he said before his warriors started dragging me away.
As I was pulled out, I saw him turn briefly toward Leysa.
"Don’t worry. You’re next," he told her before mming the door shut and throwing me into the hallway.
Warriors surrounded me on all sides, making sure I had no chance to run.
