LOGINAlpha Benson's POV:I had finished dressing up in my room, as I went into my study and grabbed some files that I was working on the previous night. Settling them into my briefcase, I shut it and prepared to leave for my office.It was a bright Wednesday morning, and I made my way downstairs to have breakfast before leaving the house.The smell of coffee filled my nostrils, but as I arrived at the living room, my mother sat there on the couch, dressed in a pink nightgown and wearing a pair of brown slippers.Her red hair glowed as the sunlight shone into the living room through the open curtains.The maids greeted me when they noticed my presence in the living room."Good morning, Alpha," they greeted, but I looked away from them and fixed my gaze back on my mother."Good morning, Mom," I said as I made my way to the dining room."Morning, Benson. How was your night?" she asked calmly, but her voice was thick with anger."My night was fine. How about yours?" I asked her, and she scoffe
Mallory's POV:Waking up in my room to a fresh start of another day, I recalled Alpha Benson's visit the previous night and how he brought the barbecue for me.My lips curled up in a smile as I pondered if he was going to choose me as his Luna.Getting out of bed to have my bath, Beatrice arrived, wearing a cream-colored nightdress, and she greeted me with a smile."Good morning, Mallory."Standing beside the bathroom door, I peered at her face as she stood at the door entrance, and I said, "Morning. I want to go in and have my bath.""Alright. I came over to clean the room," Beatrice said with a smile as she walked into the room, carrying her cleaning equipment. As she held a brown mop, she set down the mopping bucket."Alright," I said, before moving into the bathroom to have my bath.I didn't spend much time in the bathroom, as I was still curious about how the Luna Selection would go and the fact that I was still holding onto Alpha Benson's black card. I didn't even ask him for hi
Alpha Benson's POV:When I entered my room, I went to place my briefcase in my private study, then I stepped out to undress. Recalling how happy Mallory was when I gave her the barbecue. "Alpha, are you going to choose another woman aside from our Mate?" Odin asked, as he became restless after hearing my mother's statement that the pack members will not approve of me choosing Mallory as my mate."Do not worry, Odin. My heart knows what it wants, and I will choose the rightful Luna," I said, but Odin didn't trust my judgment either."I know you do not like Mallory because she is pregnant. But you cannot cause her pain at this time," Odin reminded me about the fact that Mallory was pregnant with Ace's children."I know. I have heard you," I shut Odin out and went into my bathroom.I undressed and stood under the shower to bathe.Once I was done bathing, I got out of my bathroom, and tied a white towel around my waist. But I was stunned to see Emma in my room.Emma sat on my bed, gazing
Malfoy's POV:I couldn't believe that Alpha Benson had come all the way here to his house to give me this barbecue. Seriously, I could not understand why he was doing this?First, he had brought me to his new house, forgetting that he was going to choose a new mate?Secondly, he had allowed me to use any room of my choice, and he even had the audacity to kiss me.Now, he was indirectly bringing me a gift, and he said that I should take it as my gift for being his mate."I told you that Alpha Benson is ours," my wolf purred in my head, but I rolled my eyes at that, after I went back into the living room.Madam Scarlet and her daughter Beatrice were present, and they smiled at me."Did you need anything, Mallory?" Madam Scarlet asked, her voice gentle."No. Actually, Alpha Benson brought this barbecue for us to share. Do you care to join me?" I asked Madam Scarlet and her daughter.Their eyes widened, and they refused, "No. It's for you alone. You should eat it. It's good for you and t
Benson's POVI returned to my company to continue with the rest of my work for the day. I had already made up my mind to keep Mallory updated about the Luna Coronation.I didn't know what came over me, and I kissed Mallory. It took a lot of self-control for me not to make love to her.Recalling that I had already said that I would reject Mallory, it held me from touching her.Mallory was mine. Though I was slightly annoyed because she was pregnant by Ace, it wasn't her fault.I sighed and continued with the rest of my work for the day.Later, I made a visit to the dungeon to find out why David Paulo had absconded with the taxpayers' money.As a defaulter in my pack and committing a crime like theft, David was to be prosecuted by hanging. But because of the Luna Coronation, I declined, and told the judge to sentence him to spend six months in jail."Thank you, Alpha," David and his family thanked me, but I left the prison house and made my way back to my car.As I got back into my car,
Mallory's POVAfter Alpha Benson left the room, I went to wear my dress and I put on a brown dress."Calm down, Mallory. Don't think about the kiss," I encouraged myself. As the taste of Alpha Benson's lips still lingered in my mouth.I was embarrassed after Beatrice had spotted Alpha Benson and me kissing, and I didn't want to leave the room to face her.A knock on the door interrupted my thoughts, and I replied, "Come in."Beatrice came into the room and she spoke to me, "Breakfast is ready, Mallory."I lowered my head and avoided meeting Beatrice's gaze."I am not hungry," I told her, and she said, "Alpha Benson insists that you join him downstairs for breakfast.""What! Is Alpha Benson still there? Oh no! I thought he had already left the house," I replied, and Beatrice smiled and shook her head."He is waiting for you. Hurry."I gulped and immediately exited the room with Beatrice as we went downstairs together.On getting to the first floor, I was stunned to see Alpha Benson sea
