Rudolph cleared his throat, “I've noticed that for a while now you've been...trying to win Luna's favor.”He was right, but I wasn't going to admit it to him. I just waited for him to continue.“I know a way you can do that, Alpha. A way you can make...her happy.” Was that even possible? If it was, then of course I'd do it. “Okay?” I tried to look as uninterested and nonchalant as possible. “I can help you, Alpha. I just need your permission to invite her friends over.” Marsai have friends? “Who are they?”“Elena and Leah Aegenwulf. They are Marsai...I mean, Luna's best friends.”I frowned after his words. “Aegenwulf? Isn't that your last name?” He bowed, “Yes, Alpha. The she-wolves I speak of are my younger sisters.”The surprises just keep coming! So, it turns out Rudolph's siblings are actually Marsai's best friends? I didn't even know they existed a few moments ago.“Right,” I frowned.“Yes, Alpha. So if you could just—”“Oh, I see. You are being useful,” I cut him off, givin
MarsaiI sat up on my bed in a daze after I woke up from sleep. I didn't remember sleeping on the bed yesterday. “I wondered who had cared enough to bring me up from the floor to the bed.”I felt so weak after last night. Remembering it just makes me even angrier. How could he do that? The absurdity of it all came rushing back. He locked me up, placed guards at my door, and ordered them to keep me in. Such fools!Ugh! I've never despised a creature as much as I despised Fenrir. I wanted to break free from him and take a breath of fresh air away from the pack. It was suffocating me. All those memories... they were unsettling to my mental health.A knock at the door caught me off guard. I figured it was one of the maids. At least they cared enough to wake me up and make sure I ate.“Yes? Come in,” I weakly replied, not even bothering to move. But when the door swung open, I couldn't believe my eyes. Leah and Elena?! I instantly jumped off the bed to meet them, but my exhausted b
Fenrir“What part of “after breakfast” didn't Rudolph understand?” I gritted my teeth, willing myself to stay calm.I could still feel the other sister’s intense gaze on me but I didn't turn around. I attempted to do something nice and I ended up embarrassing myself. I felt so stupid in this apron, holding a tray like a total idiot.Why the hell did they have to come now? Did their older brother even tell them I said after breakfast…ugh! Now, I couldn't take the food to Marsai anymore. I couldn't even bring myself to go up there with her friends around her. I don't want to embarrass myself even more. The way they stared at me like I had been egged in the face or something…and why was that other one, what's her name? Elena, is it? Why was her gaze so intense? She looked as if she wanted to strip me with her eyes. I never felt this foolish all my life. I hated this emotion, and I couldn't help but blame it on…Marsai. It was all because of her—it was ALL for her.I sighed as I star
Fenrir's POVBreakfast. I could make her breakfast! Sighing contentedly, I walked straight in the direction I hoped was the kitchen, on my way to prepare breakfast for my wife. I liked the sound of that. Okay. Cooking…I have to make 'food'. Edible food. I don't know how to cook. Heavens have mercy! I can't imagine that it was after I had already messed up the kitchen, that I so conveniently remember I don't know the first thing about cooking. Sighing, I looked around dejectedly. Running my hands through my already messy hair, I heaved another deep breath. What do I do now? Should I ask for help? No, Fenrir! If you do that, it will be more embarrassing for her to find out you took all the credit for someone's else's cooking than for her to know that you don't even know how to cook. Goodness! This was harder than I thought! But the Chefs...they make it look so easy, like just put a pot on the fire, throw things in, eggs, vegetables, and the whole lot. Cover the pot and in a few m
Marsai's POVI sat up on my bed in a daze after I woke up from sleep. I didn't remember sleeping on the bed yesterday. I wondered who had cared enough to bring me up from the floor to the bed.My entire body was weak from last night. I didn't even want to remember what happened because it would only make me angrier. How could he? The absurdity I felt yesterday came rushing back. He locked me up here. He placed guards at my door. He commanded the guards to keep me in, to disobey any order I give them. Bunch of fools!Gosh... I don't think I have ever loathed a creature as I loathed Fenrir. I wanted to leave him and take a fresh breath out of this pack. It was suffocating me. All the memories… A knock coming from the door startled me. It was probably one of the maids. At least they cared enough to wake me up to eat and get ready. “Yes? Come in.” I answered weakly, not even bothered to move an inch.When the door burst open, I couldn't believe what my eyes were seeing. I stared at them
Marsai’s POVIt definitely cannot be Fenrir. It can never be him. He wasn’t that nice. He would probably scare them away with his death glares before he considered letting either of them into his palace. “It was Alpha Fenrir,” Leah said his name with disgust. That is my best friend! Knowing her as much as I did, I knew that she wanted to kill him for hurting me. I didn’t even want to tell her how much the rest of the awful things he did to me before today. That would only fuel her anger and result in her getting in trouble with Fenrir. I couldn’t risk that happening.“How did Fenrir let you in?” I asked, genuinely concerned and curious.He was never nice. It was probably because he liked one of them, or trying to flirt with his old-fashioned ways. This thought instantly made me angry. Fuck Marsai! You needed to calm your nerves.He wasn’t worth all the hate I was feeling for him. He deserved nothing from me! No way he will have my best friends… never! ever!.“He was very okay. Didn’t
Fenrir’s POV I changed my mind. Yes, I changed my mind about the omelette, I was going to throw it away just because I felt embarrassed by Marsai's friends. I didn't care about what they thought. Now, I have made this omelet for my wife, and I was going to give it to her! I walked as fast as I could back to the kitchen and was glad to see the 'untouched' omelet still there. I grabbed the tray and proceeded upstairs. I was a little surprised that she was still in the Alpha chambers. I could tell by the bickering heard from the room, not caring about the word 'eavesdropping’ at the moment, I leaned in closer to hear what the conversation was all about. It appeared Marsai was already awake, which was a good thing. I looked down at the omelette and realized it was still warm, thank goodness! I should have made her a glass of juice to go with the omelet, but the thing is there were so many citrus fruits in the kitchen, I couldn't tell which one she would prefer between the orange,
Fenrir’s POVIf she didn’t want to accept it, I was most definitely going to throw it away. I was about to throw it on the wall when I felt Elena’s hands stop the tray from getting flung. Huh? When did she even get in front of me? I was so blinded with rage.I turned my gaze sharply to her, and she shuddered under my hardened stare.“She will eat the omelet. I will make sure she does, Alpha.” She mouthed, her voice shaking from fear. Elena was different, from what I heard a while ago but I was still reluctant. I would never poison Marsai. That was the last thing I would ever do to her... After a moment, I let the tray go and she collected it. Marsai and Leah both passed their menacing looks, but she still held a straight face as she headed towards the bed. I hoped Marsai eats it because I made it with so much….so much of love. It was worth giving it a shot.It would be better than throwing the food away. At least I had hope, and my hard work would not go in vain. I know why she stil
