เข้าสู่ระบบJARREDAs expected, I was right.After a little walk around the estate, I found Ashley seated in one of the most secluded gardens.Hmm... A feisty woman who loved her peace once in a while."It seems like she's going to suit your tastes, Jarred." Rowland suddenly commented from beside me, forcing me to turn my gaze to him."Tastes? You mean to eat?" I asked cluelessly.I mean, I hadn't ever eaten a werewolf before... So what could he be talking about? Sex, maybe?"Don't pretend like you don't know what I mean." Rowland grinned, shoving me playfully from the spot where we stood watching Ashley.Now I was getting even more lost."Oh, come on, Jarred. I meant in like a romantic way." Rowland gave up, throwing his hands listlessly into the air. "You haven't shown so much interest in a woman in years. And honestly, if she ticks all your boxes, I think you should go for it. You know we aren't as lucky as pureblood werewolves to always get fated mates."Ahh... Right.One of the main reasons
JARREDI swear, watching these pureblood werewolves turn on themselves due to trivial matters like social standing and class was exhausting.But I had no choice... I had to keep the facade of being the nice Beta of Red Fang so my plan could come to fruition.This whole thing wouldn't have begun if it hadn't been for all the hiding I'd had to do because of my nature. My true nature.I sat in my private suite, taking a sip from a glass of wine while looking through some old photo albums. Most of the photos were pictures of me and my father... The past Beta of the pack.He was a stern-looking man with hazel eyes like mine as well as a black mustache streaked with white strands."Oh, father." I chuckled dryly, using my fingers to gently caress his face in the picture. "If only you were here to see how far your little 'abomination' has grown."My lips curled up into a smirk as I remembered old memories that only a few knew.However, my mind came back to the present when my assistant, Rowla
Susan's eyes fluttered with uncertainty as she stared at me, probably expecting me to respond to her previous question.I mean, what was I supposed to say? Admit that I had an affair with Beta Jarred and that I hate my new life as Luna of the pack and Marcus's mate?Nah, I think I'll pass on that..."I appreciate your concern, Susan, but I'm fine." I stood up from the bed, plastering a smile on my face. "I guess I just miss home."She blinked at me for a few seconds but eventually bought it, nodding her head."Don't worry, ma'am. I'm sure you'll get used to life here in no time." She smiled, almost making me believe she was out for my good interest.I ended up nodding in agreement, though my mind was absent as I stepped into the bathroom to have a hot bath...After Susan had helped me with getting dressed, I headed downstairs, taking in a deep breath.I wore a simple lavender day dress and had my hair cascading behind my back.It seemed Alpha Marcus had assigned Susan as my maid sin
I woke up the following morning with the sunlight hitting my face, forcing me to open my eyes with a groan.Gosh, I barely slept last night. All thanks to Marcus!Sitting up, I turned my gaze to the window only to spot Susan standing there with a plastered smile on her face."Good morning, ma'am. The Alpha said I should wake you up for breakfast." She bowed slightly.'Ma'am'?Hmph... It was amazing how people could change so fast when class was involved.Turning my gaze to the clock, I sighed. "Susan? What's the time?"She followed my gaze, her eyes landing on the clock as well. She arched an eyebrow cluelessly."Uh... It's seven AM, ma'am." She blurted.I nodded my head, the lack of sleep getting into my head and riling up my emotions already. "Right... Now, did the Alpha, my mate, tell you when I slept last night?"It seemed Susan was beginning to understand where I was going with this as she shook her head. "N– no, ma'am. But I'm guessing you slept pretty late."I gave her a sarcas
The suite was dark, the only source of illumination being the moonlight shining through the windows and the door leading up to the balcony.I watched as Marcus unfolded his arms, his steps menacing as he advanced toward me."I wouldn't ask again... What was the meaning of all that out there?" His tone was filled with spite and disdain, but there was also something else behind it.Probably amusement, telling from the small smirk curling up the corner of his lips.Once again, just like when I was first announced as the Moon's Chosen, our wolves made a connection, howling desperately for us to make contact.But I stood my ground defiantly, glaring at him. "What, I can't take a stroll around the estate? Also, I don't think I need to go into the details of how Jennifer has been a pain in my ass barely a few hours after I was made the Moon's Chosen."As soon as I said that, my eyes subconsciously went to the wall clock.Darn it, it was way past midnight.We can't possibly argue during this
Gosh, not him. Anybody but HIM.The most annoying part was how my wolf instantly began howling like a hungry beast as soon as she heard his voice.Yup, that's right... The one and only Alpha Marcus. AKA, my mate who I fucking cheated on a few minutes ago!All eyes turned to him as he walked toward us in graceful strides, his stern gaze lingering on me for so long that I had to look down at my feet in guilt.Luckily for me, he soon turned his gaze to Jennifer and Beta Jarred, a frown appearing on his face."I believe I asked a question. What is happening here?" His voice was nearly a growl, low but threatening.However, Jennifer puffed her chest up proudly, giving me a disdainful look before she spoke. "Well, my Alpha, your Moon's Chosen was just about to attack me if it hadn't been for your timely interference. Given how feral she is, I'm surprised she was even able to stop her attack because of your presence..."She paused, a cold smirk curling up her lips. "... But at least she know
Zephyr grinned like the whole situation amused him. "Well, yeah. Why wouldn’t they? I mean, look at me." He gestured to himself with exaggerated confidence. "I’m rich, I’m charming, I buy you things, and... let’s be honest here... I’m very easy on the eyes." I couldn’t help the small shake of my
I looked down at Ashley with a smile. "Ashley, do you want me to bring you something back from Luvania?" Her eyes lit up right away as she looked at me. "Yes! I heard they have really beautiful gemstone jewelry there!" The excitement in her voice made something warm settle in my chest. "Then I’ll
I hesitated, but after some time i decided not to hide it. "Alright... yes. That scene felt too real." My voice lowered as I told him everything. How Rowan’s anger had spiraled. How it had turned into something I could not escape. Zephyr’s jaw tightened, his hand curling into a fist at his side.
By the time the night had grown quiet, I ended up staying at the villa. The next morning, just as I was getting ready to leave, Zephyr caught me off guard by introducing someone new. "Good morning, Luna!" I turned at the bright voice. A young woman with short brunette hair stood there, smiling as
