Another new day came. The birds chirpping became the greetings for Xavier who was still lying on the bed, next to Selena. At that time, they were covered by the blanket since they had made out the previous night.
In a few seconds, when the birds sang louder, Xavier frowned and slowly opened his eyes. Then, he squeezed his nape a bit and found out that Selena was next to him and woke up with a naughty smile on her sassy face. "Good morning, my babe," She greeted as she held Xavier's hand and kissed its back gently. "G-good morning too, dear," Xavier greeted back. At the same time, he was surprised with his and her condition, getting naked without any fabric attached on their skin. "Last night, you were so wild. Didn't you remember about it?" Selena sat and lied on the headboard as she covered her breasts. "W-wild? what do you mean, Selena??" Xavier observed his mistress' smile as he asked.Selena POV Let's say that what I was doing actually was to impress Xavier. For real, I had been in a relationship with him for a year and a half, and I know how he acted, either in a bad mood or the good one. Besides that, I also understood his ego, most of the time. However, behind those things I had figured out, I hadn't noticed a few things that he didn't like. For example like food, all I had observed while dating with him, he ate almost various food. He was not a picky type when it came about meals and beverages. In consequence, I kept my confidence and assured myself that serving cream soup as one of the morning meals was right for Xavier. He might enjoy my simple meal ideas for him although I was not good enough at choosing the food types. "It doesn't matter although he won't enjoy the soup. We still cook it." I instructed the head chef and kitchen crews confidently.
On another place, Bastian and Margie were on the way to the training camp where the pack members were waiting on the training ground. During the waiting time, some of them, knowing for their excellent fighting skills, exchanged words with each other. Their main discussion was about their Alpha protecting a Luna from the different pack. "What the heck is it? Our single and available Alpha is helping the Luna? Why doesn't he help the single omega she-wolf instead?" The man being called as Clive could not believe the flash news uttered by Emily, one of his childhood friends. "Maybe, she is special." Levi joined as he guessed the reason why Bastian was eager to help Margie. "Special?? Man, she is just a Luna of another pack. She has been marked by her mate. There is nothing special with her existence around our Alpha." Amber protested as she pressed her voice tones. Then, Emily added, "If I'm not mistaken, Alp
Margareth POV Being annoyed by the unstable heartbeats, I attempted to release his hand blocking towards mine, but it was failed. He was incredibly strong although I hadn't seen his muscular body or biceps behind his polo shirt or formal attires. As if he could read my mind, he released his hands from mine and stroke a gentle smile. "Feeling tense? I'm sorry if I sound creepier last time, but it's worthy to attend physical fighting training in here. Your skills will be improved by Beta Ashton, the expert of martial arts in this pack," Bastian clarified. "Oh, really? It means that my beta is not really qualified." I was astonished by his confident statements about the training program. Instead of adding more persuasion on the physical training program, he inquired about the capability of Beta Blake, "What do you mean by not really qualified? isn't he capable enough to manage the pack's troops?" "He jus
Margareth POV "Why are you smiling like that? is there something funny you have just heard from the phone call?" I threw a few questions to him as my eyes observed the upwards curves on his charming face. "Well, it's actually an update from your chosen mate, Margie." Bastian admitted the cause of his smile. Once the term 'chosen mate' was uttered, I blinked and stared at him deeply. I was sure that the curiosity was painted through my gaze since I also intended to know how he was although I hated Xavier. "According to one of my spies, Xavier was nagging towards the breakfast menu." Bastian mentioned. Then, he added, "He is so demanding." "Yes, he is. He is always like that. Not only he himself acts like that, but also his mom does," I nodded and clarified the truth. "Are you cooking based on his demand about food and its taste?" Bastian was attacked by curiousity for sure since his or
With the intense stares to each other, Xavier impulsively threatened the Alpha he should never mess up with. "Will you report me to the elderly council? Telling them that I have kidnapped your wife or may you accuse me for having an affair with her?" Bastian with his collar pulled by Xavier attempted to read Xavier's mind. Xavier with his cold gaze replied, "Are you challenging me? I'm not afraid you, Bastian!" With his utterance, he released his hand grips from his collar. Moreover, he added, "Just return my wife to me, and your stance as the top-tier Alpha will be safe. No body will ever know about our matter." "Well, I'm sorry if my decision may offend you, but she may not return to you since you are still together with your mistress." Bastian assured and explained the reason at the same time. "Still, I'm here to see my wife. I wanna hear it from her directly." Xavier seemed to be indifferent as he tried to co
For about two weeks later, after Xavier was failed to bring Margie back to the pack, he intensely handled his small company in the working room. He barely let Selena to distract him with a few business reasons some days backwards. However, at the exact day, around Thursday, on the last week of July, Selena bravely broke into the working room as she brought a tray with a glass of chocolate almond milk on it. "Excuse me, babe. Here is the chocolate almond milk for you," She added with a proud smile in her oval face. "Just put it on the table near the sofa. I'll drink it later," Xavier responded coldly while arranging the folders on his opened book shelves, behind the working table precisely. "Don't you prefer a glass of warm milk? This is still warm. I make it by myself." She justified since she remembered that her lover always preferred hot drinks to the cold ones. Feeling distracted by her presence, Xavier immediate
On the other side, Margie was fighting with a few of food ingredients and some kitchen utensils. It was caused by her willingness to cook for Bastian, the Alpha whom she still didn't know as her fated mate. "After we add the pasta, what should I add next?" asked Betsy, the head chef in the mansion. "The seasonings of course," Margie replied when her hands added some peppers, salt, and a bit of sugar. As those seasonings were on the pasta combined with the bolognaise sauce, Betsy stirred it evenly. Once, it was done around five or six minutes, Margie uttered, "Wait, let me taste it first." By the time she grabbed a tea spoon of the red thick liquid, she tasted it as her tongue processed the judgement of the result carefully in a few seconds. Once, the taste had met the standard, she immediately turned off the stove. "This is already done. We can serve it now." She commented with the exciteme
Margareth POV I was stunned by his simple request regarding on him having helped me so much to go through my marriage matter. Is he joking through his wish? or it's just nothing, and he didn't need me to return his good deeds?? If he really meant it, he was truly insane. Why did I think so? It was like I received a free help from such an honorable Alpha. It was more like a dream to me. Maybe, Jessie as my friend would suggest me to stay cool although my offer to return his good deeds was rejected indirectly. Yet, I was raised in a conservative family that really appreciated attitudes and manners. Those things were already rooted in me, so I would still attempt to return the things he had done or given to me. With such kind of attitude, I could live more peacefully although maybe, I had to reside from here one day. "W-wait. You want me to stay here and being your companion. Can you make yourself more clear?" I finally
The information received by both Margie and Bastian resulted on different reactions. Margie looked shocked, while Bastian was chill with it. With the state fact, the she-wolf stood up and asked, "Can't his wolf return soon? His integrity as a top-tier Alpha will be ruined if his pack members know that their Alpha cannot shift." Then, the Doctor darted a glance at her and replied, "It is not about he will return soon or not. It is more about his wolf demands for healing himself. Last time, the fury creature decided to take over his body, and he turned out to be a beast outside." "Doc, please help my boyfriend! I'll pay no matter how much it is, but please make his wolf return from the resting pace." The she-wolf immediately begged. She felt guilty at the same time for causing Bastian's wolf to be resting in no exact time. In that case, the doctor grinned bitterly. He also shook his head a bit and claimed, "I'm sorry before you get offended by my words, but his wolf may return if
Bastian POV I thought that every obstacle I had faced would bring me and Margie a peace. However, my expectation fooled out. It brought me into the most important state in my life. I was sure if I was held by Moon Goddess because I had to sacrifice one thing from the choices she would give. I furrowed my eyebrows and said, "Please, don't beat around the bush. I need to return to my fated mate soon, Goddess." "All right." She inclined and sighed. Then, she continued, "Between your wolf and Margareth. If you choose your wolf, you will be hospitalized in a comma state. It means you will return with your wolf once it recovers." "What if I choose Margareth instead?" I rose my left eyebrow, wondering what kind of consequences I would take when I chose the love my life. Would it be the worst decision ever? With her calm expressions, the elegant figure in her dusty pink c
As the time passed, at another circumstances, Selena arrived at the gate of Brown Iris Castle. Before she got off from Richard's car, the Gamma observed the area around the castle, including the inner view of it. Then, he said, "I guess there is no one in there. Are you sure you want to return? Isn't it better to stay in my apartement?" Selena stopped from rolling the door knob and replied, "In fact, I really want to stay with you forever, Richie. Believe me, I'd love to do it, even without your order." "Why don't we return then?" Gamma Richard got her left hand and kissed it gently. "Richie, I do this because of that sh*tty Alpha, Xavier. If I were in your place for three days, he would come and confront you. Do you want it to be like that?" Selena stared at him deeply as she uttered. She knew that her lover attempted to make her stay longer. "No problem for me. If it is possible, you may file a divorce decree to him. Just state that he does harmful things to you." Richard
Margareth POV "No, I'll not leave you here!" I uttered with the tears peeking in my orbs. I could not let him harm himself for my freedom from here. He had done so much thing for me, and it was too good to be true for me. "It's not the time to get stubborn, Margie." Bastian said while blocking and returning the punches from the safety guards in turns. I inhaled carefully, tried to calm myself although it didn't really work. With the bravery gathered in my heart, I told the others, "Let's get out from here!" "Okay!" The rest of them answered. Therefore, they fled while Bastian was fighting. Yet, deep inside my heart, my worriness to Bastian grew larger. I was afraid if he was injured and unable to survive. Around a few more minutes forward, we reached the ground floor. At that point, Xavier was held in his arms by Dave, the Alpha whom Jessie had crush on. "D*mmit! I should never let all of yo
Bastian POV "After our mission is accomplished, you can ruin him. Let your wolf use its strenght maximally, if you want." Carter tried to help me in managing myself. I still sighed and inhaled carefully although Clement was not unstable. I was not surprised to find my wolf in unstable emotional state. He was known for being protective and attentive, especially when it was related to his mate and its owner. It might sound strange for other male wolves to know about this thing, but to me, it was a form of concern. He cared for me and Margie's happiness in sum. After that, the silence became our companion for another time. Only the noise of our foot steps and slides were talking, as if they barked at us for not being able to walk faster. The only reason for not so fast in walking for us was to make sure that no body would be suspicious and catch us for sneaking in basement area, especially Xavier.
Margareth POV The luxurious place changed into the cold cell in two days. It was caused by my disobedience to his requests and orders. With a small grin painted on my face, I sat on the cold floor, feeling proud of myself although I knew I had not smelled the freedom. For me, personally, it was better for me to be placed in this creepy place. Rather than obeying and acting sweer to my ex-husband, I preferred showing who I was truely. He might seize my neck until I met my last breath, but he may never forget how regretful he was for abandoning and rejecting me in the past. "CLING..CLUNG.." The noise of steel bars sliding to each other was perceived, distracting my mind and focus at the same time. Then, the sound of the foot steps followed. I guessed it might be Xavier or one of his minions. However, unexp
Another few days afterwards, Bastian and his two besties had finalized their set up planned situation. Yet, for Bastian himself, he didn't expect too high from the plan he had done with the two Alphas friend. It might sound a bit pessimistic for him not to set a successful target in rescuing Margie. However, what he truly focused on was saving and protecting his fated mate. Even if it would cost his own life, he would sacrifice it. Therefore, after he made sure that his appearance was like the cursed prince and the successful oil businessman, he got out from his room. From there on, his existence was greeted by several reactions of Carter and Dave. "Oh no, he reminds of the wolf in Little Red Riding Hood story." Carter said while managing himself not to laugh. He noticed that Bastian was slightly more sensitive after being trapped in his wolf for
Selena POV After I left Brown Iris Castle, I resolved to go to the Black Fur Pack by bus. The journey might be around one and a quarter hour, but it was finer than staying in the castle and bickering with the dumbest husband and Alpha. I knew I ever fell for him, and so he did. However, it seemed that I only wanted him for a short time being. From the recent perspective, I realized that I just obsessed with him since he had greater status than mine, as an omega, previously. In contrast to my feelings to Richard, I felt more open to him although he was just a Gamma of Black Fur Pack, my origin pack before I resided and got married to Xavier. Moreover, I could be myself more around him. I didn't have to show my sexiness too much, unlike when I was with Xavier. As I seated myself on the bus, the slight cold air from the air conditioner on the top kissed the tip of my head. At this point, I also noticed that the bus was not really crowded. There were so many empty seats around,
Xavier POV "CLING!" The little noise of the padlock hitting the steel bars of the cell was apprehended. Then, I put the key in my pocket and sneered at Margie, "Enjoy yourself behind this luxurious cage. I'll release you when you change your mind and decide to return to me and this pack." She stared at me flatly and responded sarcastically, "Thank you for letting me stay here. No matter how long I will be alive, I choose to die instead of returning to you and fall into your love trap. That's the silliest thing I really regret and do!" Feeling the fury of anger heating my heart, I could only inhale gradually. I tried to manage myself to her mind game. I understood why she did the sarcasm. She was so eager to rise my blood pressure. Whenever I really got mad, she would be happier, feeling that she had knocked me down mentally. After staring at her for a moment, I decided
