~~~~ His word struck her as a word said out of anger. “I did all I did in order to escape him, why the hell would I want to be claimed by him? That creature isn't even human, I am not a slut, and I am definitely not stupid. We have come this far, do you really need to do this?” “Why can't I? Because of you, I am now a cripple.” This got to Vanilla, her gaze softened. “Then we need to get out of here quickly and find you a doctor.” “It's useless.” “No it's not. Come on, I will help you up.” Vanilla went in search of a stick and forced it into Conor's hand, then she wrapped his hand around her neck and helped him up despite his protest and grunts of pain. The first step they took, Conor stumbled but she managed to hold him still. They walked slower than Vanilla had expected, she had no idea if Conor was actually limping so slow on purpose or if his broken32|Who said I don't?~~~~Vanilla didn't expect much from Darkness, not from the onset atleast, just because he made her feel good and he was nice to her sometimes didn't mean he didn't have a dark side or he didn't have a past.She never intention to stay with him forever, Darkness was free to have any woman he wanted, the more… The lesser time he would spend with her, but seeing him with the she-wolf not only made her heart clench.Vanilla also didn't like it.She wanted him to herself until she was ready to let go. Especially with what they had done today.“Alpha." Vanilla stood still as the others bowed to their Alpha and high priestess. Darkness said nothing to them, only indicating that they could rise, his gaze was fixed on Vanilla who looked like and angel just descended. He had picked the dress himself knowing it would look exquisite on her, but he had not imagined her to look this good.Her dress was a white off shoulder ball gown, the front part had a little sash that con
31|Triumph.~~~~ Xavier who she had not seen in a while bursted in. “Are you okay?" He implored, walking closer to her bed. Vanilla snapped her horrified gaze to his approaching ones, shaking. “There… “ she pointed to the side of her bed where a hound looking creature was supposed to be but nothing was there.“What?” Xavier glanced towards where she pointed at but nothing was there, before they could discuss it further, the door opened, Silifa walked in, accompanied by Imaya who wasn't dressed in a maid uniform today, she had on a pink halterneck gown with black heels, her hair fell down on her back in long wave, pink lips lifted in a smile. “Heyo. I haven't seen you in forever." " We will discuss this later.” Xavier told Vanilla who nodded, heart still pounding, brow puckered.From the dream, to waking up and finding herself in her room and then seeing the creature, Vanilla couldn't comprehend what exactly was going on.She stood up from the bed, ignoring the still chattering Imaya
30|Dogs in leash.~~~~ No.Garret couldn't believe it, he stood there, frozen, unsure of what games the moon goddess was playing with him, a human… Was his mate?After years of waiting.After he had already given up.He finally found her, but she was human?He watched as his mate regarded him with confusion, her beautiful brows furrowed. Garret raked his gaze over her short frame, and he swore he could hear her unhurried heartbeat, including rhythmic rise and fall of her chest, making him wonder how her peaky breast would feel in his hand, how she would feel in his arms if he claimed her right there and then But she was human, the one thing he hated.Garret controlled himself, door knob gripped tightly til his knuckle whitened.He couldn't have her, but rejection was later, most definitely not in front of the girl who had the Alpha King wrapped around her finger.“Are you okay?" Vanilla questioned, he could see the confusion in her eyes, he scowled, unwilling to give the human the s
29| Meeting Gone Wrong.She couldn't believe her eyes, Vanilla turned to Darkness, eyes sparkling. " You brought them to me?" Her voice was filled with gratitude.“I have work to do, Garret will take you back.” She wanted to call after him as he left, to thank him, but she held back and turned to the two girls instead. Though they had only spent a few days together, those days were enough for her to bond with them, especially with the situation they had all been in. It was only after seeing them that she realized that Maya was as beautiful as an angel, despite her badass expression and her sharp tongue, she was a beauty… just like an angel.Dressed in a baggy top and a sweatpant, Vanilla didn't wonder why she wore those but she felt like the girl might have specifically chosen that cloth. Cinderella was dressed in a short gown that made her look very bit of the innocent girl she was.“Why are you just standing there? Do you expect us to call you royalty now that you are close to the
28| Unsatisfied.~~~~ Her hand lifted to her collarbone to caress her necklace, but then she remembered that it was with Darkness now. “Oh. Ok.” Silifa gave her a smile as she left the room. On the way to Darkness, Vanilla's heart wouldn't stop thumping. “Do you by any chance know what he wants me for?” “You will know once you get there.” Vanilla's heart dropped, it didn't really bother her that Garret didn't like her, but If she was to stay in Moon Guards Pack until she gets pregnant and gives birth, she might as well earn the trust of those around her. “Why do you not like me? Is it because I am human?” She questioned him.Garret growled. “ You fucking your way to the Alpha's goodside doesn't mean everyone would like you.” “I am not fucking my way into his bed, it is your Alpha who can't keep his dick where it belongs.” Vanilla retorted. “Since I am so below him, he might as well let me return home instead of forcing his wants on me.” Garret grabbed her hand and dragged her t
27| Are We Friends Now?~~~~ If there is one thing Imaya detests the most, it would be being mocked by those below her. Eyes blazing red, she dropped the ring gently, the air around her changing. Imaya's lips curl. “ Sapphron, are you still with that warrior boy?” She licked her teeth. Walking closer to Sapphron. “I heard he's still grieving his dead mate.” Sapphron instantly stepped back, eyes wide.Having fake friends like Sapphron and the others has taught Imaya something, never keep your secrets in their hand, but have theirs in yours. “Does he know about the cliff edge?” Sapphron shook her head, scanning the area hastily as if scared of being heard. Imaya smiled in satisfaction, while Vanilla frowned, wondering what the two were talking about.“No, please don't… don’t…. I will do anything you want as long as you keep it a secret.” “Why should I?” Imaya raised a brow, caressing her back hand. Sapphron looked around, and quickly grabbed Imaya's hand, intending to drag her away,
