*Sienna*I yawn as I stretch and feel myself waking up. Unlike the other days, I feel like my rest was more profound and my body feels it. My eyes open and I gasp as I see Ro laying next to me, his eyes closed, still asleep.I don't recall us sleeping together, is this why I slept so well? I lift my head slightly and feel him move; his eyes flutter open and he looks around before his eyes meet mine. "Good morning, my Enna," he whispers and brushes his lips against my cheek.I melt and lean in, pressing my lips on his. We kiss slowly and tenderly, knowing and understanding what effect we have on each other. His hand caresses my cheek and he smiles at me."I am sorry, I don't remember us laying down together," I say as I kiss his hand softly.He chuckles. "We didn't. I couldn't sleep and I came to see if you were ok. I think you sensed me while you were asleep and you invited me to join you. I admit I was able to sleep better with you in my arms."I blush a bit. "I hope I didn't say mo
*Sienna*The last two days have been very intense; Solange and Deidre have locked themselves in the guest house and only receive their food from the servants. Both of them would, of course, obey if they are called by Ro, but he hasn't bothered to call them."Do you even like them?" I had to ask, after the first day.He chuckled. "Oh, they were only means to an end; I told you our marriage was only political," he said, trying to placate my curiosity.I sighed. "But they are still people, with real feelings and emotions."He sighed. "You are only saying this because you don't know them that well. Talk to Mei Li about them and you will see what she thinks about them," he said, trying to dismiss my worries.I frowned. "I am well aware she hates them, and I am not defending them, but you are the Alpha, and you should treat them better, so much so, that they will be ashamed for being so mean."That conversation led nowhere. He refused to change the way he behaved towards them and kept insis
*Sienna*I sit down comfortably with Mei at my side, and we both start enjoying our breakfast; toasted bread with butter and honey is my favorite, and Ro ensured it would be prepared for me every morning. I smile at Marina, the maid, and she bows her head and smiles as her hands leave the plate in front of me."Don't you ever get bored of always having the same thing?" Mei asks and I chuckle."I might, one day, but not any time soon," I grin as I answer back.We enjoy our breakfast with small comments about the weather and the different activities we could do when they walk into the room.Solange is everything Mei described; from the way she walks, the way she stands, the way her hands move. She exudes royalty and class, and her face reflects her disdain for everything she sees around her; including me.Deidre on the other hand walks in with a mischievous smile; she stands tall and with a class no less than Solange's, but she wears a mask to disguise her disdain towards me. I remember
*Roharu* I rush into the living room and find Sienna sitting there, Mei Li close but not at her side. I worry about what happened, but they didn't tell me much when they called me. Cael is also here and he nods at me."What happened?" I ask and Sienna looks at me, her eyes filling with tears when I reach her. "Calm down, please."Kall walks in and nods at me as well. "Deidre is ok, she is still shocked, but she is fine. The doctor is checking on her and wants to speak to you as soon as you can Roharu."I nod but hold Sienna close, pulling her to my arms. "I still want to know what happened. Mei Li?"She looks at me and I can see she is still a bit confused. She nods. "We were having breakfast, Solange and Deidre joined us; they were polite at first, but then Deidre said some nasty things…" her voice trails as she looks at Sienna.I frown and feel my anger rise. "Did she hurt Sienna? Did she dare to do something to her in my absence?"I am ready to punish her but something confuses me
*Sienna*It is interesting how these past three days neither Solange nor Deidre have set foot into the house. I am sure they are not happy with whatever happened to me, and Ro hasn't left my side either, because he wants to be with me when, whatever I can do, happens.The truth is, knowing he is here with me, makes me feel safe, and what happened with them was when I felt angry and helpless. I focused my anger and decided to make a stand. I still believe that Ro's presence here will just bring peace to me. And I don't want anything else, I am not happy I put Deidre under such distress."Are you going to get ready?" Ro asks, pulling me away from my deep thoughts.I smile at him. "I just need a few more minutes," I grin with the thought of our date.He invited me to go out and it really makes me more than happy to go out and spend some quality time with him. I have been locked in this place for a while.I pick up a jacket, just in case, and after looking at myself in the mirror, I go me
*Roharu*As I try to think of the best way to keep Sienna protected, I extend my pack call and mentally reach those closest. A chain of reaction ignites and soon they are all aware.What I can see through the window of the main door is a car that crashed against the left wall that is about two miles away from the house; two rogues came out of the car and are scouting the land.-'Alpha, we are on our way back. Do you think you can hold them until we are there?'- Xavier sends to me and I frown.-'They have no chance, I am not worried about these two. I can take them. I want you to survey the area to see if there are any others,'- I order back and feel their mental nod.Sienna has her eyes wide as she tries to look through the window and see what is happening. I sigh, as I don't want to leave her alone. "Two wolves are on the grounds, and I need you to follow every word I say."She nods. I pull her with me and we climb the stairs and reach the second floor. I never thought I would need
*Sienna*We drive past the gates and we arrive at the manor. There is a rush to everything we do, and everyone around is moving and getting something done; I see other people arriving as well in cars. The usual staff is tense and rushing through the house, I even see Deidre and Solange standing nervously at the entrance door.Ro stops the car and gets down quickly, I open the door and he is already extending a hand to help me out. His arm tightens around my waist as he looks around, scanning our surroundings. We walk to the front door and we stop, watching them.He lets go of me briefly, and walks to the both of them; they stare at each other for a while before finally, he opens his arms and they both walk into his embrace. "An attack on me and your Luna is an attack on our pack. And you, all of you, are too precious to me," he kisses the top of their heads and I don't feel jealous at all, I find the gesture protective and endearing.They nod and remain silent. He then lets them go a
*Sienna*Solange says I need to do whatever I did to Deidre, and I try to focus and remember; I felt trapped in a bubble, and I focused on a knife. That knife became a visual aid to burst that bubble in my head, and then somehow I transferred it to her.How can I do this on him? He makes me feel sick, I feel like I want to puke and my stomach churns in discomfort. So what can I use against him?Solange is holding my hand tightly and I know Ro is anxious; they don't want to let me go, they don't want me to be a coward, and I want to help. I need to do this. I have to.I close my eyes and try to find a way; toxic? What would I use to quench toxicity? If it were in the air, I would use wind. But to my body? My skin? What can I use? Water.I open my eyes and visualize water; that powerful element that can erase everything. I stare at the man who is obviously in discomfort, and quickly I notice he doesn't care so much about me, but he is focused on Ro now. Is he trying to hurt him?I panic
