Maryanne heard the full story of Alpha Avraz and it made her want to know more about the guardian pack. How did the rulership get into Calhoun's hands? He wasn't bearing the same last name as Avraz.She had never been so interested in history before and she found it somehow interesting. During their learning, Itzel had led her to the south wing where the historic dresses were kept.She took out some clothes that she said belonged to Alpha Avraz's Luna. Maryanne held them up."Put it on and walk around," Itzel suggested. Maryanne tried the dress on. It was so difficult for her to move."How did she manage to wear this?" Maryanne demanded. And still, poisoned someone? She completed it in her mind. The story still baffled her. She took it as her story with Calhoun and if Calhoun was anything like Alpha Avraz, then he had her full respect.One thing she knew she could never do was insult or disregard him publicly and poison him. She could never do that.After trying out some clothes, she
After her lessons, she started to feel hungry. She escorted them out of the house and then she returned.Calhoun was nowhere to be found. Not as if she was searching for him, but she expected to at least see him after having her training.Tanya was by her side immediately. She held her hand and led her into her room."What shall you like to eat now?""Don't speak as if we are in the time of Alpha Avraz and his wife," Maryanne said.Tanya gasped. "Oh, you have begun your training. I wish I was there to send you off! Alpha Calhoun just pushed me into the kitchen because he wanted to send you off by himself."Maryanne was surprised at the revelation. "He did that?"Tanya nodded.Seeing Tanya nod, she remembered that Hamilton said she had to use her words and she was tempted to tell Tanya the same thing."I think I will like to eat now. Could you take it up to my room for me?" Maryanne asked.Tanya shook her head softly. "I'm afraid ma'am, but I overheard the beta and gamma tell Alpha Cal
"Let me go and have my bath." He said. He got up and winced slightly."Let me help you." Maryanne said. "let me help you to your chamber."Calhoun was skeptical about having her in his chamber because she was literally in his chamber. He didn't know how she would feel about it."An, I will be fine. If I can't endure things like this, do you think I will be the Alpha?" He asked.Maryanne understood that most times than not, the male ego would never allow them to accept help from their women. Well, she wasn't his woman yet.She nodded and allowed him to leave. Calhoun managed to leave her room and once he did, he straightened up and walked properly. He had found a way to get to her.Maryanne seemed tough but she was caring and he loved that. If she would always welcome him whenever he returned from war, he would love to war every day. He smirked as he entered his room.Maryanne felt so sad about it, she took out her phone. She had turned it off since she was mad at her parents and Micha
"There she is," Calhoun announced as she walked into the dining room. "Looking so comfortable."Maryanne glared at him until she sat down. The only space that was left for her was beside him and it's not like she would have sat down elsewhere, to begin with."Princess," Michael called.Maryanne scoffed at him. "you called me last night and didn't dare to inform me of your visit?""Well... In my defense, I think I did tell you that I'd speak to you this morning. Yes or yes?""Liar!" Maryanne whined. "You all are liars. Hi Mom." She smiled.Sally smiled shyly. "Hello, darling." Sometimes Maryanne wondered if that was how she was supposed to behave if she became the Luna. Was she supposed to smile so shyly all the time and blush at every kind word spoken to her?"Well, maybe I should just go and clean up a bit more." She said, getting up again. Calhoun placed his hand on her arm. She glanced at him."No need, sit." He said. "It's just breakfast and it's with family.""My teachers said-"
Was it surprising that her mother had praised Calhoun for giving her such a luxurious room? Yes. Yes, it was very surprising. Sally's definition of luxurious wasn't like this. Maryanne didn't know how she felt about it."Mom!" Maryanne demanded. "How can you even say that?""Oh darling, he is taking good care of you!" Sally said softly. "Come on, show me around."She sighed. They started their journey around the castle, she was telling her mother stories about what she had been taught by her teachers.Sally found it interesting. "Oh, dear! Even I don't know about the history of your father's pack.""Really Mom?" Maryanne asked in surprise. "I never knew that.""Well, now you know." Sally said, chuckling lightly. "oh but don't tell your father, he would flip."Maryanne smirked. "I knew there was a catch. Oh but Mom, I can't wait for this month to pass. I want to familiarize myself with the company.""At least I can have some fun things to do before I get married and start a family."Sa
Two weeks later.Maryanne was so excited about her next lesson. She assumed that Alpha Avraz's story was interesting, but the next Alpha's story was more. She was excited to learn all about Calhoun and his history.Calhoun would always stand on the balcony and watch her train. He could see how well she was doing and it made him happy. Most times, he would leave the other things he had to do just to watch her train in the backyard."Lady An, you are doing a great job! I'm so proud of you!""Thank you lady Itzel."She finished her training for the day and returned to her room. Tanya was there to serve her dinner."Where is Calhoun?" She asked."Alpha Calhoun has gone out to fight," Tanya said. "He said I should refrain from telling you so that you would not get worried."She nodded. "Thank you, Tanya."Tanya nodded. "Anything else you might need, lady An?"Maryanne was almost tired. She had been called An by everyone else just because Calhoun called her by that name. Did she need anythi
It could have been anyone at all, why did it have to be Florencia Douglas? Why did it always have to be her? Every time she felt she had finally gotten close to Thomas, Florencia was always lurking somewhere, especially with Matilda Donovan, Thomas's mother, and the Luna of the evergreen pack.Maryanne sighed. She had left her wealth and her glorious family background to come and live and work with Thomas Donovan who had been her crush and obsession since her college days. Thomas was a bully and he was rude, yet she still managed to fall deeply in love with him. Thomas had never treated her nicely except he wanted her to teach Florencia something she was able to master about the computers in their company. Maryanne was a true prodigy in computers but she had somehow trained Florencia to become her rival in the same field all because of her obsession with ThomaMaryanne was in deep pain as she sat on her bed, reading the message that Thomas sent to her. He had asked her to come and pre
Maryanne sat through her flight, unable to wipe the smirk off her face. She had finally taken the first step toward freedom and she was very proud of herself.It was easier than she thought. Perhaps if she trained more, she would be able to control a lot of people to do her bidding, just like Matilda.The good thing was that not everyone knew about it. Only her older brother, Michael knew about it. Speaking of which, she had texted him immediately after she arrived at the airport and she was more than certain that he would be awaiting her return. She smiled. Of course, she had been rather foolish to leave her family and visit a fool who didn't appreciate her.The flight ended and she did her checkout. She went to the parking lot and she spotted Michael out easily. Being the Beta's son, he stood out among every man in and around England. She was happy to see him.Michael was equally excited to see his sister. He could see that she had lost a lot of weight and she didn't look as royal a
