Chapter 719  You’ve Mistaken

Bella blinked as she instinctively shifted into her wolf form to protect herself. She was naked, and she currently had no other clothes to put on.

'I have to leave.'

Nodding to herself, she was about to leave when she heard a couple of women's voices. They were laughing, but they quickly froze upon seeing her.

"Ahhhhhhhhh!"

[Damn! This is so sudden! Do I look like an enemy?] she cursed upon seeing soldiers blocking and encircling her to attack her.

[You're in your wolf form. Do you need to ask the obvious?] Poona snorted. [Go and shift back to your human form and let those men's eyes drop instead of them slashing us with their blades…]

Bella quickly followed Poona's suggestion and shifted back into her human form. However, the soldiers' eyes didn't simply just ogle her, but their jaws also dropped as they drooled while staring at her nakedness.

[See? It's always a woman's assets that will bring any man down,] Poona smugly declared. [Well, not all naked women, of course, but only those blessed with a perfectly curvy and alluring body like ours.]

Bella rolled her eyes at her inner wolf's words. She most certainly didn't dream of exposing her naked glory to these men like this… Well, not just the men, but also the women staring at her in disbelief.

[Their uniforms… And that symbol, Poona… A tortoise?] Bella questioned. [They're from the Kingdom of Helion.]

She frowned as her expression quickly darkened. Chaos and trouble were the words that always came to mind whenever she would hear about Helion.

She had heard about the new ruler and the great changes he was enacting, but she was still not convinced by such rumors. Not until she saw the actual change, she would just have to reserve her judgment on their supposed recovery.

"All of you close your eyes!" a man suddenly declared while she gave everyone a scrutinizing glare. "Anyone I see with their eyes open, I will personally gouge them all out!"

Bella's body froze. That voice… His words were thoughtful, but that wasn't what was so familiar to her somehow. It was firm and deep. Authoritative… but she could never be wrong in distinguishing who the owner of that voice was!

"Osman?" she confusedly asked as she looked around for him. Was she hallucinating? Where was he? "Osman!"

[Do you smell it? Our mate!]

Poona burst out inside her head, interrupting her internal battle. Bella stood as still like a statue as she sniffed at the air. Yes, she definitely smelled that sultry, addictive, and mesmerizingly precious oud wood with a note of aromatic tobacco. It was quite different from Osman's scent though…

At that point, she was way too distracted by hearing Osman's loud voice to even be bothered by the Mate Pull she was now feeling. She didn't care who her mate was anymore! What she wanted to know now was who the man who just shouted at her was.

Her heart loudly thumped inside her chest. She felt like she was losing her breath as she looked around.

Meanwhile, the soldiers around her slowly moved to the sides, their eyes still closed as they seemingly gave way to someone. There, Bella saw a familiar figure of a man approaching.

Her lips parted as she stared closely at his face. He had a dark expression... That cobalt blue eyes that she used to dwell on… There was no mistake. He was Osman. Her Osman was alive!

She knew it! He was alive! He didn't look the same as she remembered him, however.

He was clean-shaven now, and his hair had lightened in color from the dark brown he had before to the majority of golden strands he now had. He also looked younger, but he still looked very manly and seductive at the same time with the addition of an authoritative poise and aura.

Bella watched as he removed his own cloak and quickly wrapped it around her to cover her naked body. Meanwhile, she simply stared at him as her eyes welled up with tears.

"You! Are you insane?" he scolded her. "Why did you shift into your human form in front of everyone like that?!"

She didn't answer him. Immediately, Bella simply burst into tears as she hugged him.

"Osman! You're alive. Oh! Osman!!! You're back!" she sniffled as she clung tightly onto him. She had no plans of letting him go now, even if she looked embarrassing and shameless while doing so.

"My lady, please let go. Don't cause a scene right now," he murmured as he tried to break free from her tight embrace. "What you're doing is improper and unladylike. Let go…"

"No! I won't let you go again, Osman!" she insistently replied, no longer caring about her surroundings anymore. "Do you know how long I've been searching for you? How long I've been waiting? You've been gone for a year and everyone thought you were dead! But not me... I knew in my heart that you're still alive, so I kept on waiting for your return."

"My lady, please release our King this instant! You must be mistaken! He's not that Osman you're calling out!" a high-pitched woman barked out.

"He's King Amon of our Kingdom of Helion. I demand that you get away from him this instant! How dare you hug our king like that before his people! You should be punished for your rudeness!"

Hearing the warning, Bella gently backed her head away, but not totally releasing Osman from her arms that were still possessively wrapped around his neck.

"Osman, what's going on? Please tell me everything," she hummed, not even batting an eye at the forming threats around her. "Don't you recognize me? It's me, Bella, the woman you love. Please, what's wrong? Did you hit your head and lost your memories somehow?"

"My lady, please release me right now. I don't recognize you at all," he hesitantly insisted. "You've mistaken me for another man. I'm not Osman. I am Amon, the King of Helion…"

Bella felt her stomach churn and her head spin around. Osman said more, but she couldn't understand him any longer. Instead, she moved her hands and lovingly cupped his face, uncaring about whatever it was he just said.

"You're Osman, and you're back… I'm so blissful right now, Osman," she murmured with her loveliest smile. "Thank you for returning to me…"

It was then that she finally lost consciousness.
