THIRD PERSON'S POV.Clara was on her knees crying her heart out as the rain poured. She was gripping hard onto her bags. The rejection from someone she hated hit deeper in her. She had no one to console her. Someone approached her and held an umbrella for her, to prevent the rain from falling.She slowly raised her head and saw Ethan. She burst into tears the more when their eyes met. She jumped up and hugged him regardless of her wet clothes, she cried hard on his shoulder while Ethan's hand was around the corner.He blinked and swallowed hard. He had never been in this situation before. Why was she crying? He slowly brought his hand to her back and patted her. "It's fine. You don't have to cry anymore. I'm here." He assured her.Clara held onto him tight as if he was going to disappear. "Please, let me…I want to stay in your arms for a while."If she couldn't find comfort in the arms of those she called family or relatives then there was nothing wrong in being with a stranger
THIRD PERSON'S POV.The next morning, Clara rolled out of bed and for the first time in her past nineteen years, she felt great and had nothing to worry about. She hummed a tune as she found her in the bathroom, she had no choice but to use most of the morning necessities she saw there. Moreover, Ethan didn't seem to mind the fact that she wore the robe last night.She finished taking her bath and wondered what type of clothes she was supposed to wear when she heard a knock on her door. "I'm coming." She spoke up to answer the door. When she opened it, she met Ethan standing in front of her and holding a bag. He brought it closer to her face. "Here, I bought you a few clothes seeing as you have no one that fits the description of a high-class lady that my dad will love to see." He explained and Clara cringed a bit at the full talk. "Thank you." She said with a smile and collected the bag. "Hmm." "And good morning." Clara quickly greeted. "Get ready. We need to go
THIRD PERSON'S POV.Later in the evening, Ethan had kept Clara inside his room all day and decided that they both came out for dinner. He was holding her hand and for some reason, Clara could hardly keep her smile. Ophelia who was going through a magazine glanced at them and she felt discomfort rise in her chest. With disgust, she went back to reading.Olive came down thereafter in an energetic manner. Clara saw the maids entering the kitchen and she wanted to join them. "Ethan, please let me get a glimpse of the kitchen. I would love to join them if you don't mind." She pleaded. Ethan raised his brows. "Are you sure? I don't think there is any need for you…" "There is a need. Just a few minutes, okay? Grandpa, is it okay if I go?" She switched from her reluctant boyfriend to her soon-to-be father-in-law. "Of course. Go ahead." Olive responded with a huge smile. Having such bliss in the house within a day was something he had always asked for. Clara followed the route to t
ROGUES.The next morning, Clara woke up in Ethan's room feeling better than last night. It was her second night with him and she didn't feel comfortable all through having to spend the night with a man.He was respectful though because he was on the couch while she was on the bed. She also felt bad for making him sleep in such an uncomfortable place in his room. By the time she woke up, Ethan was already awake and dressed up for work.He glanced at her, her hair was rough and her cheeks were red and puffed up, making her look like a three-year-old. "Good morning." Clara cleared her throat to greet him. "Morning. How was your night?" Ethan asked. "It was good, thank you. You are off?" "Yeah," Ethan answered and lifted his suitcase. He stared at her, she seemed to have something to say. "Do you want to say…" "Yeah. Uhm, can you please get me another room? I don't want to disturb you in your room so I am actually comfortable anywhere else but here.
Clara was walking beside Alpha Olive in the garden. It was a beautiful afternoon and the sun wasn't burning too bright, making the weather enjoyable. Finally, Olive suddenly took his seat and showed Clara a space to do so. They had been walking together for a while and he was yet to say anything which kinda made poor Clara anxious. "Do you know how I was able to build this empire?" Olive started talking and Clara shook her head. Olive then smiled at her response. "What do you know about the Red Moon Pack? Let's start from there." Clara sighed softly, "I heard that it is the biggest Pack in the generation of werewolves and because of the deeds your ancestors did, every male child from your side is expected to choose any girl that they have an interest in. They could easily form a bond with her. Your pack has about fifteen other smaller packs under it and so far so good, they have been satisfiable with your opinions and leadership." She replied cautiously.Olive clapped thrice wi
By the time Ethan and Ben arrived back at the pack house, the mood was celebratory. Ethan glanced at his friend, confusion written all over his face and funnily, Ben had the same expression on. "Who is getting married?" Ben asked no one in particular. "Married? No one is getting married silly. Ethan brought in his chosen mate and no one knew until the Alpha announced it. How dare you!" One aged woman pointed her finger at Ethan threateningly. Her hair was naturally still black despite how aged she had become. That seemed to be the gift the moon goddess gave to her.She was the most respected in the mansion and one thing was noted of her; she hardly came into any conversation she wasn't invited to and whenever she was invited, the wise words that came out of her mouth were unbeatable.Her kids were not around as some were married and had traveled but she had two grandkids with her. One was a sixteen-year-old girl while the other was a ten-year-old boy.Ethan chuckled softly as he
"What is the meaning of that, huh? Are you so forgetful when you go insane over unmeaningful things?" The Alpha yelled at Elena, causing her to flinch. "I am sorry, Alpha." "You almost revealed our deepest secrets!" Somehow, the fight that had happened between her and Drake had gotten to the ears of the Alpha and he was pissed about it. So he called Elena to his office, beside her was Drake as well who seemed to not be concerned about the ongoing issue. "I was just worried, Alpha. Is there anything wrong with that? No one cares for her, we don't even know where she is. She could be kidnapped or hurt and she has a father in a hospital so she needs our help." Elena replied. "Listen, girl, I am sure you were around when she renounced her being a member of this pack and also on behalf of her father which means that they are not a part of my responsibility anymore, do you get it? They never contributed anything good to this pack; both the father and daughter were utterly a d
THIRD-PERSON POV.Everyone looked at Ophelia for an explanation except Ethan who wasn't getting why she was always tackling poor Clara. "What? Why is everyone looking at me like I said something bad?" She snorted. "Well, that's because you seem to always match towards that." Ben retorted. Ophelia was holding a spoon but then put it down gently before hooking her fingers together and placing them under her chin. "Listen here, bruh. I always say the truth no matter what and I don't care who you could be but I will always say it. Many of you here have decided to ignore the truth while fantasizing but I won't. This isn't about me disliking her or not, I have no reason to because I support her relationship with my brother but I have always wished for someone strong, more advanced in age and wisdom to become Luna.I was even planning to introduce a friend of mine to Ethan for a check when he suddenly brought her home." Ophelia glanced at Clara and continued talking. "She is a ni
