Chanda stood outside of Alpha’s Mark’s designated room, staring at the door and wondering how long she would have to stand there. She had followed the Alpha and his wife after the end of dinner, but upon getting to the room, Sera stopped her from entering, insisting she remained outside.“This is just annoying.” She kicked the wall imagining it was Sera’s face, but immediately regretted it when her toes started throbbing. “Ha.” She cried, hoping around on one foot.Damn you, Sera.Chanda ached to scream so badly, but stopped when she saw Mia walking towards her.“What are you doing?” Mia eyed her.“I am waiting to summoned by your father.”“Come in.” Mia opened the door and waited for her to go in.“If you insist.” Chanda walked in and Mia followed, shutting the door behind her.Sera quickly got up from the bed when she saw Chanda. “Didn’t I tell you stay outside?” “Your daughter asked me to come in.” Chanda replied.“Relax, Mother” Mia said from behind. “Serafina is here to do h
The last thing Velkan wanted to do was host a dinner. He had closed himself in his room, waiting for when his mother would send one of the omegas to call him.But if she sent Serafina, it wouldn’t be so bad.He was certain he had handled the situation between them with ease. Maybe now, their future interactions won’t be so … awkward. Who was he kidding? After what happened last night and this morning, he was sure his attraction to her would only get worse. Staying away was his only option. He would have to nullify her punishment and send her back to the Gamma’s camp immediately.A knock sounded on the door that made him surge to his feet instantly. He stalled to respond while trying to mentally prepare himself to face her again.“Come in.” He said in his most inviting tone when the knock came again.“Alpha.” Snow walked in and Velkan had to try to not show his disappointment.“Oh, It’s just you.” He said, turning away from the door.“Where you expecting someone else?” Snow asked.
“You thought this was a good enough reason to come see me this morning, mother?”Velkan sat on the edge of his table, staring down at his mother, who was sitting on the chair before him.“I wanted to make sure you were fully awake and rested before I informed you. I couldn’t risk you getting angry or making a scene in front of my guests.”“When exactly did my pack turn to the trending place to visit in the region?” Velkan asked. “You have received more wolves in the past few weeks than in your whole time as Luna.”“It is not my fault that you continue to blatantly disregard traditions.” Leia eyed him.“So, this is one of your dumb traditions too?”“Show some respect, Velkan.” Leia scolded him. “And yes, its tradition for Alphas of packs in the region you govern to come and pay homage to you after the loss of your Luna. Also, since one of the Alphas coming happens to be Mia’s father, we can kill two birds with one stone.”“What do you mean?”“According to tradition, you have to meet wi
“What?” Chanda repeated. She couldn’t believe it. Finding the Oro sword had actually been much easier than she had expected. She got up to go and inform Snow of her findings, but the next words out of Boris’ mouth stopped her.“Aha! Now, who is the one, who has been listening to a lot of false stories?” Boris accused Mariam. “I almost believed your blabbering.”“I mean, that is what I heard.” She shrugged.“Wait, wait.” Chanda snapped. “Is the sword really buried in the tombs or not?”“I don’t know.” Mariam replied. “It is a rumor just like the ones you have been hearing from Boris, this whole time. The only truth here is that the sword became useless after the death of Klana’s leader, so Lycan Odon brought it back to the pack as a trophy and gifted it to his first son.”“Hmm.” Chanda nodded. So, Snow was correct. The sword was in Goda pack. “Why did he give it to his son?”“Because the young heir had an obsession with witches and mystical crystals, and since the sword was believed t
Chanda marched into the kitchen to see Mariam and Boris giggling while sharing a slice of cake. “What are you two love birds yapping about this morning?” She took out a bottle of whiskey from the counter and poured it down her throat. “I needed that. And isn’t it too early to be making goggling eyes at each other?”“Hello to you too, Miss Serafina.” Boris gave her a huge smile and passed her a shot glass. “You look… rested.”“Are you done with the bath already?” Mariam asked. They had crossed each other on the stairs when Chanda had been headed for Velkan’s chambers. “You really are an expert at it.”“I am not well rested. I have been awake since the freaking break of dawn.” That was because she had been up all night, reminiscing on her encounter with Velkan and cursing for herself for even wishing something had actually happened. “And I didn’t make the bath,” She continued. “Because he decided that he doesn’t need me to do that. According to your Lycan, I should make myself useful,
Something was definitely wrong, Velkan pondered. There was no other logical explanation.The sun has just begun to rise, but the sky was still gloomy mirroring the way he felt.He sat in his study with the door opened. He never left it open but today, he felt like he was going explode if he was enclosed in the space.Even his room had felt uncomfortable to stay in.Mate.That was exactly what his wolf had roared in his head last night, when he had landed on Serafina. He had gone into instant shock as his body immediately reacted to the attraction that came with the bond.He had full knowledge about how that felt, since his body had always reacted in the same way to Chanda.But that was another problem. How could he feel the bond for Serafina when his wolf still cried for Chanda? Maybe his wolf was playing games with him and was just horny. It had been a while since he had been with a woman. Precisely since, he had married Chanda.That should explain why he felt these feelings for the
