"All the apprentices will be dispatched to the northwestern for assistance from the rogue attack. We will disembark two days from now before the sun rises."

As soon as our meeting adjourned, murmurs enveloped the assembly hall. I remained silent, not liking what was happening lately in the northwestern. I was worried about the casualties; not only that, I hadn't heard anything from Thaddeus and Theodore, and most especially Cretheus.

He hadn't returned yet. And I was getting worried sick.

"Azai."

I snapped back when Fesio called me while I was helping him to sort the documents from his table. "Yes?"

He fished out some keys and placed them on his desk. "I need you to clean Cretheus' quarters today."

My heart instantly leaped outside of my ribcage at the mention of his name. "I-Is he returning?" There was hesitation lingering in my tone.

He nodded, making my eyes widen. "I need you to prepare his quarters before his return. I am certain that he is tired from his errands."

    As I stepped into the study, the faint scent of parchment and ink greeted me, along with Rosso's ever-composed figure by the desk. "Is Sir Kenji here?" I asked, scanning the room for any sign of him.Without missing a beat, Rosso slipped a pocket watch from his breast pocket, the polished surface gleaming under the light. "He'll be here later," he said, meeting my gaze briefly before gesturing toward the cabinet. "For now, your next task is to rearrange the documents in the drawer." His attention returned to the stack of papers on the desk, the rustle of pages breaking the silence.My eyes wandered to the empty chair behind the desk—a reminder of Kenji’s absence these past few days. The chair seemed untouched, almost frozen in time, as if waiting for its owner. Whispers had recently spread about him filing for leave related to the clan matters, but seeing his space so lifeless made the reality of it sink in.What did he do when he returned to his clan? Just by thinking about it, it ma

    "Azai, you're being summoned," a comrade called out, snapping me from my thoughts.As I turned, my pulse quickened, catching sight of Thaddeus standing just behind him. Whispers and stolen glances spread like wildfire among my fellow female comrades, their barely contained murmurs buzzing in the air as they took in his striking features.Suppressing the urge to roll my eyes, I moved past them, my expression tight as my gaze briefly met Thaddeus'. Every step I took beside him felt heavy, the air between us charged with unspoken words.'You looked at them like you were ready to claw their eyes out, sunshine,' Thaddeus teased through the mind link, his voice brushing lightly against my thoughts.My glare was immediate, but it only earned me a sheepish grin from him, his amusement evident despite the sharp look I gave in return.'Be certain you still have that smile of yours later, Thaddeus.' I scoffed.He chuckled before he cleared his throat as we walked past the guests at the party. Be

    "How? Why?" Cretheus's baffled expression was evident in his handsome features. "How did this relate to you, Kasumi?"I stayed silent, unsure if I should reveal my real identity right now. Would this be the right moment for him to know?Sighing, Cretheus became more worried about my reaction. "Is there something you wish to tell me, huntress?" he asked softly, cupping my face.I stared into his eyes. Patience and worry registered in his sapphire-blue eyes. The members of the House of de Rosa really had enchanting orbs, as if they could be hypnotized using those gems.I held his face, looking intently into his eyes. 'This is something related to why I'm suspecting that I'm in terrible danger,' I mind linked him. 'But I need you not to tell anyone about this matter.'Cretheus creased his forehead at the earnestness of my expression. 'What is it?' His tone sounded concerned.Taking a deep breath, I silently counted to three, bracing myself for his reaction as I sent the truth through the

    The palace had become busier the next morning as well as the royal knights began marching towards the assigned positions. We, the apprentices, had to help the royal servants for the decorations before we were summoned back to the barracks.The arrival of the monarchs from the Waevalon Kingdom filled us with nervousness because our Alpha King had high expectations that everything should be perfect. His personal attendant had arranged everything, from the decorations to the formations the royal knights should take."Interesting! Everyone is busy!"It was Rachelle, the fellow comrade I met yesterday, had made her appearance this morning and didn't stop following me after we ate our breakfast. She didn't say anything, but she was just following me whenever we had to do some tasks."Shouldn't you return to your mentor now?" I asked for the nth time, worried that her mentor might need her presence.Rachelle giggled and shook her head. "Not really. He's not even here, so I intend to help you

    Returning to the barracks felt like I was brought back home. And I couldn't help wondering if things would end now that I had performed the ritual prayer. Not only that, I had to investigate something.It was about the man who had injured me. I could vividly remember a few of the features with that sharp jaw and the smirk. Just by thinking about him, it made my skin crawl out of nowhere."Azai, bring this flowerpot to the throne room."I snapped back as soon as my name was being called. I did as I told them before my eyes were on my fellow apprentices looking in my way. I just ignored it, even though this immensely bothered me at this moment since we were already doing some preparations, yet they still had time to use their eyes to judge me.How much more if they got to learn that I had three mates who came from the House of De Rosa?And it would soon be revealed that I was their mate. I wondered how it went with Thaddeus when he talked to Severin.I wanted to see Thaddeus. I didn't g

    "I'll see you again once this casualties had been settled down, huntress. Alright?" That was Cretheus' words as soon as he pulled me outside and hide in the dark. Tomorrow was supposed to be our departure to help about the gathering of the arrival of the two monarchs from the Waevalon Kingdom. Biting my lower lip, I nodded my head and hugged him, my wolf was already missing him. Because we had strengthen our mate bond, and I was not wearing any incantation jewelry, my feelings for Cretheus intensified and so was he.Ever since that day we marked each other, I couldn't deny my feelings for him. It intensified and on par of what I felt for Thaddeus and Theodore."Yes, but I still hate you for removing me from being your apprentice." I couldn't help pinching his skin, making him irk.Cretheus cleared his throat softly. "I'm sorry. I was out of my mind, but I have been working on taking you back." His expression softened as he caressed my cheek while looking at me lovingly. "I will make
