"What happened?"I gulped, taken aback by Mr. Carbarin's question, as if he didn't remember what had transpired. My heart raced rapidly. It wasn't that I was afraid of him, but rather, I was afraid that he might spread what he saw in me on social media. But judging by his reaction and the furrowed brows, it seemed like he had no recollection of what had truly happened.What was going on? Why did he seem oblivious to what he had done on the paper, especially the way he looked at the folder in front of him? His brows remained furrowed."Y-You signed the contract, sir," I managed to speak calmly, trying to hide my stutter. If he didn't remember what I had done earlier, I considered myself lucky. Indeed."I signed the contract?" He continued to furrow his brows seemingly wanting to repent because his signature was already on the paper and he couldn't deny it."Yes," I replied composedly gesturing to the paper and smiling at him. "As you can see on the paper, it's your signature and nothing
As I confessed my feelings and accepted him as my mate, a wave of unease washed over me. I found myself growing increasingly uncomfortable, uncertain about how to proceed. Should I continue eating while ignoring his intense gaze, or should I meet his penetrating stare head-on? The weight of the decision burdened my mind, leaving me in a state of uncertainty.It felt as though he was carefully observing my every move as if he expected something from me. Yet, I couldn't help but feel awkward in responding to the situation. The complexities of our relationship added to the discomfort of the moment, leaving me conflicted internally.Transitioning from seeing myself as an omega or his former slave to accepting the role of his Luna and mate proved to be a challenging task. Acting differently to him was difficult due to my deep-rooted identification as an omega."What's your plan since I'm your mate?" he asked, catching me off guard.I was stunned, my eyes fixed on the plate in front of me.
"See yah later, Luna."I wasn't sure if Ceylon's kind treatment towards me was part of following Alpha's orders. He doesn't usually smile at me like that, almost teasingly.Since he considered me as the Luna of Alpha, he didn't use his black Ducati but his own car. Now we were in front of Hildart's main building, and I was about to get out when he said those words to me. He kept calling me Luna, but I'm not used to being called that. I would prefer to be called Omega or Sophia, even though I'm not yet the official Luna of the entire pack.I didn't respond to his comment and simply got out of the car. I glanced at him, and he gave me a sweet smile before driving away. I felt relieved when I could no longer sense his presence around me. I know he's my cousin and I should receive that kind of treatment from him, but he hasn't cared about me in the past, even when I had bruises on my face.Although I don't agree with his behavior, I'm still grateful because he's the first cousin in my life
Honestly, my foot felt numb because I had been running errands all day. Nala, my wolf, was trying to keep calm and not show her annoyance. I had gone in and out of the office three times just to fetch juice for Miss Blythe, as she had ordered me to do. When I entered the office again, she was sitting in her chair, reading a magazine. As she noticed me approaching, her eyebrows raised.I placed the glass of juice in front of her and stood up. "This is your third juice, Miss Blythe. I hope it meets your taste." I smiled to show her that I was being polite and respectful, even though she wasn't treating me well and the tasks she assigned me were menial.The way Miss Blythe treated me was nothing compared to the hardships I had endured in the past. She couldn't make me her slave because, after all, she was just a human."Let's see. What if I still don't like it? Can you leave and stop being Eros' secretary?" She kept her raised eyebrows and looked at me mockingly.I cleared my throat with
"Can we talk about this, E-Eros?" Miss Blythe gently grabbed the Alpha's arm then pleaded, "Okay, I'm sorry. I won't do it again. Let's not let this little problem escalate—""I told you to leave!" I nearly jumped when the Alpha's voice rose sharply in Miss Blythe's face. His jaw clenched tightly. I could only gulp in response.Miss Blythe let go of the Alpha's arm and stood up, facing all of us."You'll regret this! After doing business with you for a week, you dare reject me from your company? You made the wrong decision, Eros! You'll see, you'll regret this!" Those were the words Miss Blythe uttered before she stormed out of the office. A moment of silence filled the entire office as we watched her footsteps."People can be worse than us," murmured Beta Algie, shaking his head slowly.The Alpha let out a sigh of relief as his anger subsided. He took a step closer to me, causing me to instinctively step back. "Sophia...""A-Alpha..."Ignoring my retreat, he gently grabbed my injured
All the members of the pack kept their eyes on the three guests as we escorted them out of the packhouse. They claimed they just wanted to get to know me, but the Alpha's demeanor and the way he looked at them made it clear that he didn't trust them.He stayed right beside me, never letting me stray far from his side. I could tell that he, just like me, sensed something big was about to happen. The visit of the Hybrid Wolves to our pack was only the beginning, and I couldn't predict what the next few days had in store for us. It was even possible that another group of beings might come to our territory, adding to the uncertainty of our future."Not just one breed, but an entire race of werewolves, felt the added strength within them. It happened just now," Beta said, speaking randomly. The guests finally departed, leaving only the pack members with high positions at the entrance of the packhouse. The Alpha took a long time to respond, his eyes squinting as if he was deep in thought.Th
"White fur..."Cathy gazed up at me in awe because of my massive white wolf. She gently touched Nala's cheek to feel the softness of her fur. I could see the amazement in her eyes as she continued to stroke our fur with her fingers."Sophia!" Khate giggled and eagerly approached me to touch Nala's cheek too. "You're beautiful!" It was the first compliment she had ever given me. In the past, her words were always judgmental, but now that I had Nala, she praised me."Mommy!" Cathy ran towards the kitchen door to call her mother from inside the house. "Look at Sophia here!"Nala wanted to leave in front of Khate, but I stop her first, we had to stay for a while because Cathy called Auntie Elvie. I didn't want to appear rude, so I decided to show my wolf form to Auntie first before allowing Nala to run into the forest."Hey! What's going on here?" Ceylon emerged from the kitchen and looked directly at me. "A white wolf? Who is that?""That's Sophia," Cathy answered, peeking into the kitche
I arrived at work bright and early, eager to start the day after having a short day yesterday. As I entered the office, I noticed Alpha engrossed in his computer. When he saw me, there was a hint of awkwardness in his gaze. Just before I looked away but I caught a glimpse of a small smile forming on his lips. Handsome...I couldn't help but think. "How are you?" I greeted him. "Good morning, Sir!" he responded. We accidentally spoke in unison, and it brought a moment of confusion and amusement. I wanted to laugh, as we both hesitated, unsure of who should speak first. I decided to let him take the lead. "Good morning," he finally said. Clearing my throat, I replied, "I had a good night's sleep, Sir Eros." "Please drop the 'sir' when we're alone in my office. Just call me Eros," he requested. It was a difficult adjustment for me, especially in a professional setting. I understood his intention, but I was a bit stubborn. Alpha wanted me to be more comfortable, but I struggled wi
