He stared at me. No evidence of shock was painted on his face, which made me realize that he either knew it already or he didn't take my words seriously.My heart was pounding hard, my wolf was stirring up quickly. The urge to touch the prince and feel his skin touch against mine almost made me do it.I gulped as I stepped back, eyes widened.And there... I could smell it...The most attractive and manly scent I've ever smelt in my whole life. My lips trembled as tears began to brim in my eyes. The rose fell from my grip.“Y-You're...” I uttered, dumbfounded, but he just smiled gently at me and kneel down to picked up the fallen roses.“It took you a while to feel me,” he said as he carefully picked up the roses on the floor. He stood up and he was now towering over me.“W-Why... how...” I said, my chest was rising up and down.“I don't want to rush and pressure you. The time will eventually come where you will be able to feel your wolf and feel our bond together.” He gently held my h
Lady Erima dodged the sudden impact when the door burst open. Alastair cursed under his breath, and Lady Karheel stood in an alerted stance. There, they saw a lady with a menacing smirk plastered across her small face.“Well, well, well. Where do you think you're going, everyone?” A menacing voice of a familiar woman rang through their ears. Sidrich passed out and was having difficulty breathing, and the crown prince was carrying her bridal style protectively.“Get out of our way or I'll kill you,” Karheel said through gritted teeth, but the woman whose name is Alessandra only laughed, finding it amusing for such a mere witch to threaten a pure-blooded vampire like her, a royal blood it is.“Karheel, you haven't grown a bit. You're still that stupid best friend I knew before—”“I've never treated you like that. Don't flatter yourself too much. You never got a friend because your attitude stinks. Who would like to befriend a b*tch like you, right?” She was playing mind games to her, pr
The empress ran towards her son who was carrying an unconscious lady in his arms. A worried look was visible on the empress' face.“What happened, son?” she immediately asked. Alastair's jaw clenched, remembering what happened.“The royals ambushed us,” was his only reply. He flicked his fingers and immediately, a doctor came rushing towards him. “Check her for possible injuries. She's having a difficulty in breathing.”“Yes, Your Highness.” He gently placed her on the bed and kissed her forehead before letting the physician to check on her. He stood up and took a deep breath.“You should go to your father,” the empress said. She raised her hand and held his face lovingly. “Calm down, son, it won't do any better if you keep being angry.”It was very difficult for Alastair, but he tried his hardest to calm down. “I will talk to father, Your Majesty. Worry not about it, I can still endure it.” He was pertaining about his beast.“Good. Your father is in his office.”He nodded his head an
I wish I was never born at all. Living in the Shadow pack where omegas were treated inferior to everyone, my life was difficult. It was hell. I've never been treated nicely and people always have something to say about me. They did not care about the omegas' well-being. We were enslaved, abused, and taken advantage of.We can't fight. Mainly, because we're the weakest in our pack. Or perhaps, we are just outnumbered. We can't go to school. We are unprivileged. We could do nothing but to obey the people superior to us. If we wouldn't, they would only make our lives more miserable than they already were. Life is unfair to us, omegas. We were also members of this pack yet we were treated rather like some sort of a stinky rat. Our good for nothing Alpha was even tolerating his people's misbehaviour. He turned a blind eye to our suffering. He didn't listen to our pleas and instead, he even considered taking advantage of us, too.Well, it wasn't like this a few years ago. It was far from b
I awoke with a gasp, sitting up quickly. I clutched my chest where pain struck me. I was catching my breath as if I'd run a thousand miles.My head pulsed as I tried to remember my strange dream. I was in a room with an old woman when she suddenly assaulted me, then after that I pushed her to the wall, and then... she died. I killed her. Then all of a sudden, a man came and fed me with his blood. I started doubting if it was only a dream. I could remember the taste of his blood in my mouth.“You're awake,” I heard a melodious voice of a woman. Startled, my head snapped to the side and saw a beautiful woman holding a basin in her hand whilst smiling warmly at me. My eyes widened. Who is she? And where am I?I opened my mouth to speak but no words came out. My throat was dry, reminding me that I've become dehydrated for the hundredth time. My malnourished body trembled when the woman walked towards my direction, placing the basin on the table.“How are you feeling, child?” she asked,
It's been two days since the incident happened in Lady Karheel's house. After Lady Karheel bathed me real quick, we packed her things up and left. The prince sent some of his people to bring horses we can use to travel.I don't know why he's doing all of these. Why was he protecting me when we barely even know each other? He also does not seem to be close with Lady Karheel. I'd understand if he would protect her but including me? Impossible. But nonetheless, I was thankful.We are now travelling into the city of Kiram. We will be travelling for a week or two to be able to reach the city even though we have horses.“Let's have some rest for a while,” Lady Karheel said and jumped down. She walked towards my direction and helped me to get down on my feet—since I am too scared of heights.We tied the horses on the tree before she murmured some incoherent spells.“W-What's that?” I asked.“It's a spell of invisibility. I don't want to risk us being caught once again. It still confused me h
“Of course,” I replied to his question. His smile widened as he planted a kiss at the back of my hand before he stood up and guided my hand to hook on his arm.“Great. Then, shall we?”I nodded my head and smiled sheepishly. The guard opened the door for us and bowed their heads. I was so overwhelmed at everything. I could not believe there's a world like this. Everything seemed surreal. One minute I was in an abusive pack, and in a blink of an eye, I was suddenly beside the prince himself, walking side by side—comfortable with each other's presence.“Lady Sidrich, how were the maids assisting you? Did the maids make you, somehow, uncomfortable? Did they take care of you well?”I looked up at him and smiled sweetly. I tucked the few strands of my hair behind my ear. “They are so nice at me and they cleaned my body, just like what Lady Karheel did before we went for travel.”His eyes sparkled. “You like the shower?”I shyly nodded my head. “Uhm... I am not used to water that much becau
How did he know me? Have we met before? I can't remember what we did, but I'm sure it's my first time meeting him. After all, I just got out of a pack from the 18 years of my existence.I just smiled and greeted the prince back. They sat down on the seats across mine. They had a conversation which I tentatively listened to without joining their chats. They would ask me from time to time and I would answer them the things I just know. They seem to understand that I'm not quite a speaker, so they understood. I was grateful to them.After their little catching up, Erima was called by his father. So it left me with prince Levi alone at the table.“You hungry, princess?” he asked kindly. I'm not used to being called princess but I didn't tell him.I shook my head and smiled kindly back. “I am just fine, Prince Levi. Thank you.”“You sure? I'd like to take desserts, so if you want something to eat, I can get it for you instead.”“No need for that, brother. Lady Sidrich and I will grab our o
