“I hope you know your way in the kitchen. Do you know how to cook?” Rose asked as she guided me towards their kitchen. The first time I saw their kitchen, I couldn't help but feel impressed. It was every cook's dream.“I do.” I wanted to add that I love cooking but I was too shy to tell. She suddenly stops before the kitchen comes into view. She then turns to me. “I will get all your necessities tonight including clothes and toiletries. You need to wake up when the sun is rising and come down to the kitchen to help us. You can ask me anything regarding your tasks. Lastly… I want you to always listen to me.” Her words were firm but lacking edge. I wonder why she’s easy on me. I nodded. “Okay.”“Good girl.” She pats the top of my head like that of a child.We were on our way to enter the kitchen when a hand suddenly grabbed my arm securely. “Not so fast, baby girl.” The familiar voice brought a shiver down my spine. I felt afraid instantly.“Katarina.” She reproached. She directs he
LucanI watched Caleb, one of my best warriors, taught the human how to fight. Days had gone by, the girl had made a routine in my pack. With how everyone is treating her and how weak of a mortal she is, I expected her to break, instead she adapted. I grunt, walking away. Just as I settled myself in my office, Katarina and Julian arrived for our meeting. “Alpha.” They both said in unison, bowing.They started talking about their weekly reports as usual. Katarina was the first one to report considering there were updates and information inside the pack. Julian, on the other hand, gave me updates about his mission outside. Ever since the huge attack from the hunters, I sent him out to gather information. We have a reason to believe that our own kind was conspiring with the hunters. To top it all off, they made sure Julian and I were not in the premises while they attacked. My beta and I were at our prime, meaning we’re the strongest. My father was the Alpha back then but he even ackn
It was a surprise that Julian was accommodating to me considering he has a nonchalant attitude. He answered all my questions about werewolves as we toured around their territory. Their land was vast and the majority of it was occupied by the forest. Their wolves love to run with nature. I've learned a lot from listening to him. It's not only about werewolves but also about hunters and about the history of their land and their pack which is called Dark Moon. It seems not everything that I’ve read in books was true about them. Their world that I discovered intrigued me which is why I’ve never been more in awe; and despite being scared, I still want to learn more about them. That, and the fact that there’s a part of me that was accepting of this which was utterly fascinating and strange. "Your family… why are you not with them?" The question made me halt, a frown etched in my forehead. Julian stopped beside me and watched me with a raised brow. “My family and I aren’t really that
Nasrin“You’re distracted.” Caleb remarked, stopping our training.“I’m sorry.” He reaches his hand on my hair, picking up a dry leaf that got stuck. “You’re getting better, Rin. But you’re not focused right now. You fell a lot of times earlier, too. You know how much the Gamma will take pleasure in your downfall.” “I… I met your Alpha last night.” I said, hugging myself as the thought of him made me nervous and scared. “I guess I just feel unnerved. It was the first time I’ve seen him…” Since the night he admitted his plans to me, his fury, the pain he inflicted on me and the way he forced me to pleasure him.Caleb placed his hand on my shoulder, comforting me. “Hey, it’s okay. Think about it. Instead of putting you to cells, he lets you roam free and even gives you the time to train with me. Think about that, Rin. The Alpha…” He exhales. “Everyone here is just hurt and victims of the attack. I hope that you understand that isn’t easy for them, too.”“I know.”“Perhaps you can prov
JulianSilence consumed the room as I waited for my dear friend to respond to my report. Minutes had gone by, still he was quiet, spacing out behind his desk. I cleared my throat, faking a cough to grab his attention. “Alpha.” No response. “Lucan.” I finally grabbed his attention.“What?”I watched him in disbelief. “I suggested that we mention again to the council about you being king.” A deep frown etched on his face. I know he doesn’t like this topic but it was necessary for the plan. “It might be a perfect set up to bring forth those who betrayed Dark Moon and the former Alpha.”“It is a good plan. However, it might be another cause for another attack on Dark Moon. It was part of the reason my family was murdered.” He said so nonchalantly. He had put off his grieving and focused on our pack. It was truly sad to see my friend like this but alas, it was part of being the Alpha. Not to mention one of the biggest packs. I nodded in agreement. It was indeed risky. I studied my Alpha.
Nasrin“Happy Birthday, Caleb!” I exclaimed, hugging him in the process.I wanted to greet him first during training. Since he’s a popular guy, he was already surrounded with his peers greeting him and hugging him. I made sure to do it during our training. I didn’t want to bother him when he’s surrounded by his friends.“Sorry, I’m probably the last one to say that.”He squeezed me in his embrace as he chuckled. “It’s just the middle of the day. The last one will be at 11:59.”I giggled, letting him go. I kissed each of his cheeks. My grin widened when I saw him blush. “What’s with that blush?” I poked the side of his torso. “Haven’t been kissed in your cheeks before?” I said, teasing him. “Actually…” He trailed, rubbing the back of his neck shyly. “Not from a girl.”“It’s just a friendly kiss though.”“I know. It’s just… I haven’t been really really close with a girl. I’m waiting for my mate.”“Wait, you haven’t had a girlfriend before?” I asked, surprised at the revelation.“No. Li
I blushed at his comment. That’s one way to crush my confidence. I looked down knowing it’s hard for me to meet his eyes. There’s something the way he said it that felt like I was a slut. It’s not my fault my breasts were on the bigger side. My sisters were the same so I shouldn’t feel like this. It’s just normal.I was waiting for him to say something. I couldn’t ask him why he was here. I really thought it was Rose. It had become a habit for her to barge right into my room. I didn’t have a problem with that since she always comes here to ask me if there’s anything I need. I didn’t expect the devil’s presence. The last time he came here was a memory that I wanted to bury six feet under the ground. I rarely see him, too. He was someone that comes and goes. I often catch a glimpse of him, sometimes during training. I would sneak a glance but I would look away immediately. His presence was scary enough, let alone meeting his eyes.Suddenly, I felt his hand wrapped around my neck, sque
“If it isn’t my favorite student.” I jumped away in surprise and saw Katarina whispering loudly against my ear. I covered my ear as I looked up at her like a deer caught in headlights. She sneered at me, relishing at my reaction.“I suggest you eat meat and not… that.” She nodded towards the tart I reached before she startled me. I stared at the desserts longingly. She rolled her eyes and sighed. “Just go get one.” I hurriedly grabbed one and ate it all the while Katarina was staring at me. I stole a glance at her before looking away.“You know, you’re not at all pretty bad, baby girl. As much as I want to deny, you have improved greatly in your training.” She said, surprising me. “You better keep it up.” Katarina grabs two glasses of drinks from an omega passing by. She gave one to me. “Drink.” She ordered, noticing that I wasn’t moving, still stunned at her confession. I quickly drank it, still not getting used to the burn in my throat.“Thank you.” I said shyly. I don’t know if s
