I stared at the door for what seemed like eternity. The tears slowly rolled down my face as his words ran through my mind.Did he save me?I asked myself very ity flickering eyeballs, my mind unable to figure out what to believe and what not to.If he really did save me, how did he know that I was out in the woods at that same time? How?!My mind was about to explode due to the excess questions and migraine that was taking the best of me.An hour passed by gradually, a maid came into the room, cleaned my room and brought in some food for me to eat. Even though there was no appetite for me to eat, I just had to force myself and eat something not to anger Nelson and the members of his family.The face of the alpha flashed through my mind and my heart couldn't help but skip. His face brought Goosebumps to my skin and I could help but feel it each time I remembered how harshly he spoke to me.Tired of thinking and worrying about my pain, I decided to fall asleep, maybe I might have a bett
"Melissa, meet Conri," Anabelle introduced.I looked up only to find a tall handsome man in a black cloak walking closer to where we sat. His long black hair swung to the touch of the wind, a smile plastered on his face and from where I sat, I could see his pure white amazing set of teeth which sparkled. No doubt, this guy is breathtakingly handsome but I wonder how a man like him wants to help a girl like me."Good to see you Ma'am Melissa, it's a pleasure to finally meet you" Conri spoke out standing close to where I stood, his eyes filled with sparkled as he spoke and I couldn't help but feel very confused about the whole thing."You have to relax Melissa, Conri is a very good friend of mine and a loyal werewolf to the royal family. He will teach you everything you need to know about becoming the Luna of this pack immediately. My brother is made Alpha…" Anabelle turned to Conri who smiled at her, "It's good to have you back Conri, it's been a while since you have been inside the pa
I stared at my reflection, my stare locked within as I slowly buckled the last button on my sleeve. The past few days have been harder than I could comprehend and I could feel my shoulders ache badly, my body about to burst out with burning fire.MelissaThe name rang in my head like a burning fire, like a name echoing from a mountain top and there was nothing anyone could do to stop it from being heard.I scoffed and neatly brushed my hair, my eyes filled with anger, an anger that I just couldn't lay down ever since the first day I knew I was going to get married to this stranger, a pure human as my wife."No father! I want to get married to her! How do you expect me to mate a mere human, how do you expect her to be the Luna of my pack? How will she lead the werewolves into battle and keep the pack together? No way father! We have to look for another way out because this isn't going to work, ever!" I affirmed with so much fury burning through me, the blood in my veins rushed like wil
Melissa's POVThe hallway was so quiet that the only sound that could be heard were that of I and Conri who walked down heading to where I have no idea about."Where are we going?" I asked turning my attention to Conri who had his gazed forward."To the royal library"Surprised, I narrowed my gaze at him, "The Royal library? But, how is that going to help me know things I ought to. There are tons of books given to me to go through but still, I can't understand it clearly. How sure are you that I am going to do justice to the ones you are about to show me now" I asked, my sight not leaving him.A soft laugh escaped his lips, he took a left turn and I followed suit. The hallway we entered was way brighter than the former and I could clearly see two maids coming out of a room and heading out with their eyes bowed in respect."I am not just taking you there to read, but to explain more to you. Follow me" he gestured.I rolled my eyes with a sigh, "Of course I am" I responded and followed
Melissa's POVStartled by his question, I gazed up at him gulping down as hard as I could. I couldn't understand what he meant by those words."What do you mean?""Don't just sit there and ask me" his eyes left the book and rested back on me, "Do you think that by you reading this book will make you a good Luna?" Nelson asked, his voice filled with so much contempt that I couldn't help but wonder why he hates me this much.I decided not to say a word to his question, although I was pissed but I won't let his remark ruin the happiness I found reading it.Seeing that I was silent, Nelson looked away from me and returned back to his side of his bed. I tried my best to ignore him even though I could hear him every step.Soon, he laid on the bed and within minutes slept off as I held the book, my mind unable to explain what just transpired between us.The next day came faster than expected, although I was a bit sleepy knowing the fact that I spent all night reading. I got to my feet before
Melissa's POVI sat still not uttering a word, my stare fixed on Nelson who appeared like he was about to shred me into pieces. I couldn't help but feel a little scared around him, those gorgeous eyes of his hunted me deep into my soul.I decided not to say a word at all but kept mute as I slowly bowed my head in total silence.Nelson watched me with an heavy breath, although I could feel his intense stare on me, I still choose to act dumb, whatever business he had with Viviana is absolutely none of my business, they must have had this going on long before I joined the pack do it shouldn't be any surprise to me."Listen" I heard Nelson let out, sharp and clear, "Whatever you just saw is none of your business, after all, we were never in love neither were you happy that you got married to a werewolf. We both live a different life and it will be best you stay completely off mine" he warned without any trace of being apologetic.I felt so disgusted and pure anger began to rise inside me,
Melissa's POV.Anabelle slowly let go of my hands, she rested on her chair, her gaze not leaving me as my words rang through ears."I am quite aware of this Melissa"My eyes flung open in shock, "You do?"Anabelle nodded, "Yes I do , they are indeed having an affair" she revealed, this time, a sad expression plastered on her face.I felt dumbfounded that instance, for Anabelle to have knowledge about this, then I guess everyone knows too."Melissa"I looked up at Anabelle who held my hands, "You shouldn't let that border you""It's not possible Anabella, I don't think that won't border me" I admitted feeling like a hole has been drilled in my heart.Anabelle nodded, still holding my hands, "I know Melissa, things like this aren't easy to just let go. The truth is that Nelson and Viviana have always been lovers, everyone thought that they were destined to be together, their love was so strong to the point that my brother was in a hurry to have her mated to him but when the moon goddess
Nelson's POVThe front view of the field felt so new, standing next to an open window in the large meeting hall, I stood waiting patiently for the elders, a call concerning the death of my father.Letting out a deep sigh, I dipped my hand into my pocket, brought out a small white towel and gently wiped my face. The passing of my father today has brought so many opened doors and responsibilities passed down to me. I know that being the next Alpha in line, I will be left to deal with certain matters, I have been training my whole life for this and I am certain I will be as great just like my father."Prince Nelson '' A familiar voice called out to me.I turned around to the direction the voice came from, six of the pack elders walked in, their faces filled with several expressions."Good to see you Prince Nelson" an old man with gray hair and strong eyes walked towards the young prince as the rest stood behind him watching."It's so sad to hear about the death of your father, he was a g
