"By the way, we are going to shop today morning. You don't have any clothes left and a shopping haul is extremely urgent for now," he said and she nodded her head.He was right. Last night he got her another dress but it was already dirty and she was afraid that it was not going to come out easily.She mentally cursed herself for doing this to herself. Even the dress as before was dirty and she couldn't wear that either.She felt like punching herself for putting herself in such embarrassing situations."What am I going to wear now?" She asked, embarrassed herself for asking for help when she was the one who got herself in such situation."Why don't you roam around naked? I won't mind," he said with a smirk and she looked at him with widened eyes. She didn't think that he was the type to joke around about such stuffs."I am joking. You don't need to take me seriously," he said as fast as possible, intimated by her stare.She wanted to smack him on his head and tell that you shouldn't
"Alpha, something strange has entered our territory. It's a human being," one of the pack members said."Why are you acting as if you have never seen a human being before? You seem terrified as if that human is going to eat you alive. Let me see who it is," Nicolas, the alpha of the pack said before transforming into his wolf form.A small body was surrounded by bushes and suddenly a heavenly smell hits his nose.Then and there he knew who it was. It was going to be his future Luna aka his mate.His heart started beating faster than ever. Blood was rushing in his body and he couldn't wait to see her face.He goes closer and finally takes a look at her face. It was nothing like what he imagined it would be.He always wanted a strong woman to be his mate but before his eyes were shaking small human with tears falling down her cheeks.She was beautiful, way too beautiful. She was so fragile looking that he couldn't decide whether he wants to protect her from the entire world or himself.
"Such a beautiful name you got there, Amara. What does that mean?" Nicolas was genuinely curious because he never heard this name before."Different meanings in different languages but I like to think that it means immortal," Amara said, her voice suddenly becoming a little bitter as if she has remembered something.Nicolas noticed the change in her tone.He wanted to ask her what it was but he felt like that would push her away.For now, he was ok with the fact that she wasn't pushing him away and actually talking to him.He also wanted to ask her what she meant by facing the worse but resist the urge."Can you tell me how you ended up coming here?" As much as Nicolas wanted to pick her up and take her with him, he first had to confirm that it was safe for his people.He didn't want to risk their lives. There were so many small kids in the pack. He couldn't let them die due to his mistakes. He was their leader and he had to protect them no matter what.If she wasn't safe or taking h
She thought that he would stop and drop her off of his back to change back into human form.But to her surprise, he didn't bother doing so. He started running to the other side.Pack members stopped in their tracks after smelling an unknown smell but when they saw her riding on their Alpha's back, they knew that she was harmless.They didn't bother paying attention to what he was going to do with her, they just went back to their work.Nicolas stopped before another house but unlike the others, the one wasn't made of wood.It seemed like the only normal house among all of the wooden houses.This thing made Amara a little sad because she wanted to stay in the wooden houses but she didn't really have any chance.It wasn't her home and she couldn't choose where to stay.He went inside the house and directly ran to a big bedroom. The house didn't look that big from the outside but the same couldn't be said for the inside.It had navy blue themed walls and a bed placed in the middle.This
"I know that you might not like me asking you about these things now but I must. What were you doing behind the bushes?" Amara who just had food now felt like throwing up but she controlled herself. She knew that these questions were going to be thrown at her.It would only look weird if nobody asks her what she was doing there. She was expecting this even earlier, right when she met Nicolas.But he surprised her by not asking them.She cleared her throat. Her eyes became a little gloomy as if it was lacking liveliness.Nicolas noticed this as well."My mother was a human being who fell in love with my father who belongs to the pack. His mate died before he met her. He started having feelings for her as well and soon I was born. But my mother died after my birth," she took a deep breath, trying to push the tears away.She never got to meet her mother in that way. She never talked to her. Her mother doesn't know what she looks like, she doesn't even know her name. She died way before
"Do you still remember their faces?" "I do. How can I forget their faces? I wish I could forget whatever happened but it's just too much for me," she said while looking at her hands which were now covered by Nicolas's hands."The alpha of your pack didn't try to stop all of these? He never tried to save you?" "He was too busy with his own life to give a single thought about others. I hate him just as much. Had he been a good Alpha, I won't have had to go through such things. I didn't have any problem with cooking, cleaning or simply doing all of the work. I didn't mind not having enough food or clean clothes like others. All I ever wanted was protection," she paused, unable to finish the rest."Protection that everyone around you failed to give you," Nicolas completed what she wanted to say.She nodded her head while repeating what he has said."You don't have to worry about being protected from now. Just agree to be a part of our pack and I promise to protect you even if it means r
"Are you sure that you are ready for this? I mean, you only got here today. I honestly don't know anything about you and you know nothing about me other than the fact that I am the Alpha here. You don't know the other pack members either. What if you don't like them? What if you are not comfortable around them?" Even though Nicolas didn't mean to scare Amara away but his words were indicating the same thing. "I can't tell where I am going to like them or not if I don't meet them first," Amara said while playing with her fingers. By this action of hers, Nicolas could guess that she was feeling nervous and he assumed that the reason behind her getting so nervous was his words. "You can say no if you want to. I won't mind plus the pack members would never question anything I do. They have enough respect for me and they also trust me enough to know that I would never do anything wrong. At least intentionally," Nicolas said with enough confidence. "I honestly don't know. I just came h
He didn't want her to go through another shock in such an small time. He could feel that she doesn't feel things as strongly as he does. He was so attracted to her that he felt like marking her right then and there but the same thing couldn't be said for her. Humans being mated with Lycans ain't something new. A lot of Lycans have human mates. But their relationship always seemed to confuse him. He has seen the Lycan always chasing the human until the human finally feels the mate bond. Humans feel attracted to the Lycan but they don't instantly fall for them while the Lycans fall hard enough to marry them at first glance. He knew that his and Amara's case was no different. She might be attracted to him due to the mate bond but she definitely isn't ready to fall deep into this with him and he wanted to give her time. He was ready to wait for her as long as she needed him to. But one thing was clear and that is he's never leaving her. He wasn't new in this entire thing. While he h
