"Mom, they say my eyes are weird." The thirteen year old little girl sulked at her mother. She did not accept because she was always ridiculed by her friends in her village.
The mother could only smile as her hands picked fruit in the garden."What a strange thing. Aren't my eyes unique, huh." The fruit that her mother had picked in the basket, occasionally eaten by her."Your eyes are unique, Rena. Because you have eyes like your grandmother. Asian mother. You already know, right?” Rena's mother walked to look for ripe grapes, her hands painstakingly cutting the stems of the fruit. Rena who saw her mother took the scissors in the basket and tried to help.“Take the purple one. Leave the green ones.” The instructions were immediately obeyed by Rena without any rebuttal."But Ben's eyes are not like mine, Mom?" It turns out that this problem still persists.Yura who saw her daughter's back couldn't help but sigh. The little girl with double braided black hair covered in a rattan hat always had a problem with her eyes, even though not everyone can have eyes like that. But many are insulting and even mocking as proof that he is not normal. Shouldn't that be a gift in itself?"Enjoy what you've been given, Honey. Thank God we can still live without any flaws.”Little Rena could only mumble. The ego that had always been inside her was disturbed again. Her friends at school and at home always insulted her, some said her eyes were weird, some said she was a vampire because her skin was pale. She's not a vampire but were... oops! Rena smacked her mouth in exasperation. Her parents had warned her not to let the identity of the family be known.They prefer to live in villages and stay away from all kinds of groups—packs—and mingle with humans. As her mother used to say, humans were much more fun than a group of werewolves."Mom, daddy and Ben aren't home yet?" Her hand held her mother's clothes until she reached the yard."I don't think so, maybe the wood hasn't collected much.“Would you like to come with me to Uncle Gill's house to sell grapes?” Her mother brought a cart filled with grapes that had been harvested since yesterday.Rena who was giving her favorite pet food with a leaf shook her head. "I want to take care of my Didi first, Mom." The long-eared beast just kept on chewing what Rena offered her."Then you wait here Rena. Don't go to the river, it's dangerous!""You've told me a thousand times, in case you forgot." Rena carried the white furry animal. In fact, she really wanted to take a bath on the river bank, moreover her brother Ben always invited her even though it was just an empty offer.Rena looked ahead to see the flow of the Rhine which was quite far from her yard. The longest river that crosses several European countries.Sankt Goarshausen to be precise in the village of Wellmich, Germany. A village with a population of about a thousand people with beautiful views and high hills. One of the incomes of the residents of this village is wine. Wine that later became one of the most expensive drinks Germany had."Rena!" Girls of the same age approached Rena and crouched down to give Didi a leaf. "Have you done your homework?"Rena took off her rattan hat and put it on the grassy ground. Put Didi in her cage and close it tightly. "Come on, please, I'm smart." A grin that made her eyes look just a line made Harriet frown.“Can you teach me, Ren?” Harriet begged for pity while rocking Rena's body who was already sitting on the long bench.Rena who heard her friend's request thought by tapping her chin. "But there are conditions, how?"Harriet who was also sitting on the bench nodded in agreement. Anything will be fulfilled as long as the annoying teacher doesn't scold her."Still be my friend Harry." Rena raised her eyebrows. Making Harriet stare in disbelief, was it that easy?"I'm your friend after all." Harriet remembers that not all her peers are willing to accept Rena. Harriet held Rena's hand and said "I will always be your friend forever." And Rena took that as a promise to the death.***On Monday morning. Who loves Mondays? Where everyone is required to start activities. Rena scowled in annoyance as she ate the bread that was already served on the plate."Ben, I'll go with Harriet later, okay?” Rena pleaded."Why don't you want to be with me?" Ben added chocolate jam to his bread.“I just wanted to talk to Harriet. Yes talk to her.”"Okay."Without waiting any longer, she immediately said goodbye to Mom and Dad and took her backpack."You know, Ren. Brandon yesterday said he loved Ursula." Rena who heard the story from Harriet stopped her steps and was shocked."How could that be!? Brandon is the same age as my brother and Ursula is our age. They were far apart imagine Harry, five years. Brandon is such a pedophile, huh.” Rena couldn't understand how her brother's friend could love a girl who was far below him age. They are little teenagers who are about to grow up but they still feel weird."Name is love, Rena. Let them make love at a young age." Yes Harriet is a melancholy human. Rena agreed to that.‘Don't let my mate age who is far above me.’ Rena shuddered at the memory of it all.***“Hey, weird eyes. You should have had an operation that made your eyes look like normal humans.” Elisha laughed happily greeted the other friends.Rena, who saw and heard that, just rolled her eyes in disgust and turned the book she was still reading even though she wasn't focused."Don't you have the money to do the surgery?" Elisha twirled her wavy blonde hair. Actually she was embarrassed if she had to be like this, but if she got angry she was afraid that she could not be controlled.“Elisha the Drama Queen, could you please be quiet for a moment. My ears hurt to hear your nagging mouth from a long time ago. After all, the operation should be you, seeing as you can never memorize lessons properly."Decisive.Screams of screams, whistles and insults from classmates made Elisha silent. She could not understand that Rena could embarrass herself in an instant. With emotion and blushing, Elisha walked out of the classroom accompanied by two maids—eh, her friends.***Rena smiled faintly as she remembered the incident, an incident she would never forget in her life. The childhood that made her seem selfish because her words didn't mean to offend Elisha in the slightest. After that incident Elisha never wanted to talk again and even mocked her, but not the other friends. They still mocked her. Irritating.She should have apologized to Elisha at that time and made a good friendship. But after remembering that Elisha was the number one person who always insulted her, he had never made an apology until now.Rena sighed, the good memories are not where everyone still wants to play with her but in a different way."Luna.""Come here!" Luna Irene brought Rena to sit on the sofa and opened the pink package.There was a beautiful white dress decorated with a ribbon around her waist. Making Rena look amazed by the scene in front of her. "It's so beautiful, Luna." She couldn't hold it in her eyes and just looked like she didn't want the dress to get dirty because of it."You like it?" Luna Irene was happy to see Rena's reaction. Rena nodded without taking her eyes off."Then this is for you." Luna Irene put the dress into a paper bag and gave it to Rena. Rena who saw the paper bag just shook her head and didn't accept it. How could her Luna give her such a luxurious dress."Take it, Rena. This is an order!” Firm. It was the first time Luna Irene spoke to her like that, making Rena gasp and hands trembled."Wear this dress tonight, it will be my wedding anniversary. You already know that right?!” Without accepting Rena's rejection, she stood up and walked proudly leaving Rena still staring at the shirt blankly.Irene wasn't angry with her, she just didn't want to see Rena, who was always closed and cornered herself. She always watched the girl, the girl she loved like her own child. If only Jonathan allowed Rena to be fostered as an adopted child, we can be sure that Rena would always be happy.The moment where Rena came into her pack area and caused an uproar throughout the palace because a rogue was allowed to live in it. But it was an absolute order from Jonathan and Christopher agreed. If indeed Rena does not want to be killed she must become a servant for this palace."But she's a kid, Jo." Irene sobbed seeing Rena's tattered clothes which were very unfit to wear.“Yes or no, Irene!” How can a small child make himself and his wife fight.Irene held Rena's shoulder looking at her empty eyes as if she was ready to be executed at any moment."We don't know what she will do one day, considering she is a rogue." Jonathan is always thoughtful. He didn't want any trouble in his area.“I could tell she was a good girl, Jo. You can feel it too, right, Honey." Irene was already crying, she couldn't believe that if her husband would make Rena a servant at a young age, Rena should have received an education.Jonathan sighed tiredly, as an Alpha was assigned to guard his property from all kinds of harm. But when viewed from the side of his parents he could not have the heart to let Rena become a maid at a young age. “Let her learn like any other maid girl. Tell Morin not to be so hard on Rena the reason is because she is still a child. You can monitor it from afar Irene. And also don't show the injustice between Rena and the others.""When she grows up make her a personal maid for the Nickolas." Without receiving any rebuttal from his wife, he left Irene who was hugging Rena's body.Irene couldn't argue anymore, Jonathan's orders were fair to Rena.The atmosphere of the palace seemed bustling. Many family members and relatives attended. By using an all-black and white concept, this party looks luxurious and elegant. It turned out that not only Rena herself wearing a dress, other maids also wore it. They match the white clothes, but the motifs are different. Maybe Luna Irene wanted to make this night perfect. But Rena knew that the dress Irene gave was very different from the others, was it special. Instantly her confidence faded, she did not deserve to wear luxurious clothes like this. She should be just like everyone else. But if she didn't wear it, Luna Irene could be really angry. “Rena… Rena… Rena.” Wendy proudly stood in front of Rena and looked at the dress from top to bottom. Her eyes widened as Rena's dress was different from hers. Even though both are from Luna Irene's gift. “Where did you get this fancy dress from?” Her hand touched the white cloth and felt the softness there. Rena suddenly backed away not letting
Rena sighed. The white ceiling of the bedroom had been the center of his attention. She misses her father, mother, and brother, Ben. Since the incident that made her part with Ben and until now, she has never seen him again. What if she asked Alpha Jonathan and Luna Irene for permission to get out of the pack instead of looking for her brother. Indeed it is allowed. But, Considering that she would be labeled an ignorant person if she lived in the palace from thirteen until now because the pack had raised her. She was distraught. But among it all, there is a Beta Romeo that she really can't leave. Beta Romeo with all the arrogance that man has. Rena thinks that Beta Romeo will change over time and doesn't think of himself as a parasite in the palace but as a member of the pack ... mate. Her cheeks are puffy between sweet and bitter when faced with the man. Let Beta Romeo stab him with sharp words even if it hurts him greatly. At least she gave enough distance so that Romeo would not
Rena felt her cheeks heat up from Madam Morin's tight slap. It's also possible that the corners of her lips are bleeding a little, as evidence that she can taste salty. "I didn't expect you to be this brutal, Rena!" shouted Madam Morin holding Rena's ear. "Sarah, take Wendy to her room!" Madame Morin ordered when she saw Wendy's pale face and breaths still gasping for air. "Are you trying to kill your friend, huh?!" Shaking Rena's shoulders, it made her dizzy for a moment. "Please, Madam. Stomach nausea." She felt like throwing up when her body was shaken hard. Since waking up, Rena is not feeling well and has felt feverish. "Did I not teach you from a young age to respect everyone? Do you need me to teach you one more time, huh?!" shouted Madam Morin. "Please, Madam, forgive me." Her eyes were hot from the pain in her head. Morin, who let go of Rena, immediately rubbed his hands on the shirt. "I forgive you this time. Don't let Luna Irene know everything. I've covered enough of
Sunday, Early Autumn. Eliminating fatigue also gives a positive aura to other people. It's that easy. Rena should have never shut herself down because of the loss of her family. He should have been more grateful to be in the pack. Well cared for even in unreal terms. If she remembers, time flies fast for her to be here. She is already twenty-three years old. Rena glanced at the man handsome face beside her that had been watching her. "Is there something wrong with my face?" Rena looked at that face. While those who stared only shook their heads and smiled sweetly. "You're beautiful," The man said. Rena, who heard that, could only blush. Her gaze returned to the asphalt road. Was what this man said true? She smiled. "I hope we can always be like this in the future." Rena, who heard those words, blushed even more. She rarely interacts this intensely with men. She was especially sitting side by side. "Why do you wish that?" Rena wants to start everything from scratch and start as
Romeo is already very emotional with the closeness of Rena and his brother, Jordan. Sometimes with an innocent look, she teases Jordan to make the man look like an adorable cat. Plus, seeing the behavior of both of them is very sickening. Jordan did not play with his words from the start, even with Romeo's unpreparedness for Jordan's actions. He didn't want his brother to fall into that girl's naivety. He didn't fully trust Rena even though he had lived in the Palace for years. Romeo has always felt something strange, what made Rena lose to enter his territory. Wendy's words yesterday again bothered her mind. It was true what Wendy said, and everyone would assume that. Why is that woman here? Where did the whole family go? Why doesn't Rena see her family again? Or an orphan? Perhaps, Romeo's inner question could be a true statement. He saw how Rena was with innocence or stupidity that Romeo didn't know how to explain. He saw with his own eyes the sickening scene. Jordan rubbed R
Rena never imagines it dealing with blood-sucking creatures. She also never refused not to be afraid to face the immortals, whose age could be more than hundreds of years. Because according to Rena, if the vampire has targeted its prey, it will not be released at that time. Rena, who saw Romeo's action pushed hard against the vampire man's body, widened her eyes. She doesn't know if Romeo is that strong and only executes using one hand. Channeling the fear that radiated from her body made Rena feel a firm embrace. Rena felt Romeo's sharp glare to keep calm and trust her, but it was no avail. Rena hid her face in Romeo's chest. Her body shook violently, especially when she heard the dry leaves stamping where the man was hit. Her face looked up to see what he felt was getting more uncomfortable. "Beta Romeo." The sound that came out of her mouth was just a mumble that made Romeo understand. "N—no… no… no!" Rena's shrill scream made the night animals that seemed to be peeking fly eve
Rena cried, lamenting the fate she had felt for the past two days. She separated from her older brother, whose parents assigned her to look after her. I do not know how many kilometers she had walked through the forest to seek help. Her stomach was already sore. Only forest fruits were able to fill the void. She was even more afraid because she had seen other creatures in the forest several times and luckily managed to hide. She did not want to be food for all of them. She wants to live and meet her brother someday. The growl made Rena's conservative attitude tested again. She was running away without looking back. But suddenly, her legs were pulled violently from behind, making Rena fall, but she didn't dare to scream. Her hand reached for a grip and couldn't. Rena was drawn more and more and went for the dry leaves as a handle. And understand that she's finally caught. "Please don't," Rena whispered as her eyes were still closed. Sharp branches have scratched the front of the body
As comfortable as someone else's palace, more comfortable own palace. That's a saying that Rena often hears. She remembered, just closed her eyes and enjoying the beautiful light of the night sky. But a few seconds later, the water was soaking all over her body. What is wrong? Or is it raining on the earth?Her eyes blinked at the piercing glare. For a moment, she couldn't even stand up. How long had she been asleep sitting up?"I looked for you here and there, but here you are. Don't you feel that the sun
