Amelia stood in the middle of the room, frozen. She stared down at her feet in embarrassment. God! Why didn't she look around? What the hell was she even thinking coming into the meeting hall. That must be the reason he was calling her. Trying to make her stop. Oh god! How foolish she was. But why? Why does she have to embarrass herself. Amelia swallowed the heavy lump in her throat before speaking. "I'm s-sorry." She apologized very quickly and scurried out of the room, not daring to look up. Amelia let out a loud wail, falling down unto her bed. Oh! Why does the heavens hate her? They should have warned her? Stupid courage. Look where courage landed her. God! Amelia groaned into the bed, still feeling highly embarrassed. How's she ever gonna be able to step out of her room. Right now she wish she'd just die. She's never ever going to ever step into that meeting hall. Never again! How's she going to face Sebastian? She can't avoid him. Amelia let out a cry, hitting her
"Okay, put the carefully on the string. No! not that way." Rieka collected the bow from her and placed the arrow on the string, showing it to Amelia who stood beside her, staring intently at the bow. "See?" "Yeah, let me try again." She took the bow and arrow from Rieka, setting it carefully, aiming at the dartboard. "Now, aim directly at the red circle on the dartboard." Amelia let out a whistle when she missed her shot. "Don't give up yet Amy, keep trying." Rieka advised, smiling at her. "Sure." About fifteen minutes, Amelia kept practicing. Aiming to get it right. Today, she decided to learn how to defend herself. And she found archery quite interesting. Thanks to Rieka who offered to teach her. "So tell me about your dream." Rieka sat on the bench beside her, taking the bottle of water in her hands to her mouth, drinking some of the contents. "My..my dream?" Amelia raised her brows at her in surprise. "You want to hear about it?" "Yeah, yeah. You always call it strange
"What are you doing here?" They both froze on hearing the familiar voice. Hell! How did they not smell him? Rieka and Ralph stared wide eyes at each other, knowing they've been caught. They turned around slowly, sighting him standing by the door, leaning against it. "Alpha king." They bowed their head, looking down at their feets. They were caught red-handed. Sebastian walked into the library with his hands crossed behind him, standing close to them. "What were you two doing?" His brows knitted into a frown as he stared at the old brown book on the table. "Alpha... We were... Just.." Rieka twisted her fingers together, stuttering helplessly. God! Why were they so careless? But it wasn't their fault, he hid his scent. Damn! What is she going to tell him? "We're really sorry alpha king. We shouldn't have come here in the first place." Ralph apologize calmly. He was obviously the one who wasn't really bothered about the alpha king, finding about it. Sebastian stared at them for a
"Yes, that's great!" Amelia smiled, her eyes lit in excitement. That would be nice. It's just like a free treat. Her first here in the pack. "I'm happy you like it." Aviana beamed, her face full of smiles. "Yeah, and I'm happy you're really nice and friendly." Amelia complimented with a warm smile on her face. "Oh, thank you." Ana smiled, completely flattered. "Okay, so when is it going to be?" Amelia asked, unable to hide the curiousity lingering in her voice. "Uhhh.... I don't really know but anytime I'm really free, like less busy. I'll tell you immediately." "Okay, I'll keep that in mind." Amelia swayed from one foot to another giddily. "Erm, I.." Ana paused when she heard someone call her. "Ana, you're needed at the-" "Okay, okay! I'll be there." She yelled back before turning back to Amelia. "See? I gotta go." "Yeah, bye friend." Amelia waved at her. "Okay bye." Ana gave one last smile before she left, heading back to the castle. "Amelia?" Amelia turned around when sh
Amelia let out a small gasp, her eyes wide open in shock. She stayed frozen for a few seconds before disengaged her lips from his and shook her head a little starting to get up. "Uhm.... I.. sorry... I'm... I'm... I'm sorry!" Amelia apologized quickly before scurrying off. Running all the way to her room. She rushes into her room and bolts the door, resting her hand on it as she pants heavily. What the hell was that? Amelia moves away from the door and walked into the room, sitting on the bed. It was an accident. Yes! An accident. But how was an accidental kiss suppose to ignite feelings in her. Weird foreign feelings. Why was she almost longing for the kiss to continue? That big frowny face guy must surely have something that might be drawing her to him. It must be charm. Because she hasn't felt this way for any other person. No one has ever woken such feelings in her. Feelings that comes like a tornado. She shook her head to get rid of those thoughts and stood up fr the bed hea
"I want it." Amelia let out a loud gasp, staring at the little girl in shock. Did she just hear her speak? Amelia shook her head lightly, asking. "Did you just say something?" She stared wide eyed at her. "Say something." She urged when the girl only looked down at her fingers. Amelia blinked her eyes repeatedly, still in shock. "Hey." She called, trying to make her respond. Amelia heaved out a deep breath when the girl only wiggled, trying to get down. Amelia dropped her to the ground and she scurried off quickly before she could say a word. Amelia stood there, rooted to the ground for a few minutes before she shook her head and walked out of the garden. "Is there anything I can help with?" Amelia asked as she walked into the kitchen. "Oh, nothing dear child. You've done a lot today." Loretta declined with a warm smile. "Besides, you need to take a rest, before the seamstresses comes with clothes for you." Loretta added. "Seamstresses?" Amelia brows raised in confusion as she
"What's in that bag?" Amelia asked, pointing at the bag laying on the ground. They had successfully chosen a suitable dress and mask for the festival and were preparing to leave. "Oh that! Oh my god. We almost forgot one important thing." Kalani rushed to bring the bag. "These are shoes." "Oh my god. I can't believe we forgot about that." Rieka brows raised in surprise. "Come on, bring it. Let's check it out." Kalani brought the bag to the bed, bringing out some of the shoes. "That." Amelia pointed at one. "Let me see it. It's so perfect." She smiled up at Rieka. "It suits the dress perfectly." She stared at the light yellow glittery shoe in her hand. She took it to her leg and wore it, smiling as it fit perfectly. "I'll take this. Thank you for your time." "Yeah, you're welcome." Kalani answered, putting the rest of the shoes into the box, with the help of Mirabel before they both took their bags and exited the room. "Woof!" Rieka plopped down to the bed, letting out a tired sig
"I don't think he knows yet." Ralph turned around sharply when he heard Rieka speak behind. "What?" He furrowed his brows in confusion. "I was thinking this over the night. The alpha doesn't know yet. He doesn't know Amelia is Lupe." She explained further, staring up at him. Ralph stared around cautiously before he grabbed her wrist, pulling her to a secluded area. "What do you mean? And how did you know this?" "It's obvious Ralph, if he already found out she's Lupe he wouldn't act the way he's behaving to her. And you know? Treat her that way. Also distancing himself from her." She explained, whisper yelling. "Besides, we all know how he treated Lupe. He was always close to her, like she was the very oxygen he breathes. If he already found out she's Lupe, he would have changed." "But what about that time he caught us in the library." Ralph pointed out, staring at her unsurely. "He must've known." "Maybe, maybe not." Rieka waved her hands dismissively. "But just think about. If
