SANDY:Alpha Oswald wanted to reconcile with me. And he never wasted this opportunity. The question was, was I ready to forgive him? because no matter how much I thought about it, I was still in pain for what he did. That even thinking about the Lycan King made me believe that men were all the same. They will make you fall and then when you start falling hard, they will use that opportunity to use that.Just like what Oswald did.“Did you bump your head or what? Why did you suddenly offer to make up with me?”“I realized I want you above all, Sandy. You’re my mate.”“How about your lover. Is she also your mate? What’s the difference between her and me?” He was about to say something, but I held my hand in the air to stop him from saying anything. “I don’t want to return to you. I am not a fool,” I replied, turning him down. “I already hurt myself in the past. Do you think that saying sorry will erase everything? You think wanting me back will change everything? It won’t be as easy as
SANDY:Seeing Alpha Oswald was definitely what I expected to see. I was minding my own business, and here comes the devil who ruined my life.Why did he come here? I tried to recall memories where he brought me to a pub, but there was none. He was all alone. Or at least that was what he was showing to everyone.All eyes seemed to shift at him. They sensed the authority and power he carried all because he was an alpha of our pack. My pack before I came to the palace. "Miss?" Toby asked. I glanced at Toby who was scowling at me. "I'm sorry. I just saw a demon enter." My heart raced.Pretend that seeing him did not bother you at all, Sandy. According to some, the best revenge that you could give to someone who hurt you was not giving them any ounce of your energy. "It's rare for demons to enter the pub, Miss," he said innocently. “Sometimes, when they entered the pub, some werewolves drove them away.”“I never saw a demon in my entire life.” And I did not have any desire to see the
SANDY:Upon hearing the word courtesan, my feet retreated. Being wronged as a courtesan was the last thing Mom wanted me to be. I did not have anything against them. Sometimes, poverty would push you to do something even if it contradicted what you believed. But still, Mom always knew what I was up to in this place. Someone whistled.Big and bulky men, whose bellies were as big as a mountain, watched me with eagle eyes. Some winked at me while the others whistled. I gulped. Why did I go after the kid again? To escape from Beta Arthur and Honora and to the Lycan King himself, I reminded myself. Why don't you go back to your pack and go to your parents as well?My parents will be the first ones to kill me. They will kill me for sure. It was their dream to marry me off to the lycan king. They prepared me for this. I was the only one who did not take this seriously. “It's fine if you don't want to be here, Miss. This place is dangerous especially when men get drunk,” the kid explaine
SANDY:That bastard is here? Why? Why would he ruin my mood?Fuck him! How could His Highness tour around the marketplace leaving me alone in the palace earlier? Damn him! Damn, Lady Bianca too! They deserved eternity in hell. Scanning the surroundings, all I saw were vendors trying to sell their goods and buyers, who could not decide what to buy.“I did not see them. Where are they?”I clenched my fist, hating how I did not catch the Lycan King's scent. Perhaps, it was because of the smell around the marketplace. His scent was overridden by the smell of sweat, cheap cologne, and trash. "Where are they?" I asked, setting aside the kid who ran away. Maybe the sight of Beta Arthur scared him off. Anyone on their right would be afraid of the beta because of the way he looked. He was handsome, but the way he glared at everyone as if they would do something harm to him was not attractive at all. I was glad he was not my mate or I would be shitting my pants right now.You are scared at
SANDY:Since I met Beta Arthur, I already had a strong dislike for him. Could he blame me if he was always grumpy? He was too different compared to Parker. There was only one thing that I understood. Beta Arthur was not the man he wanted him to be. Or maybe he only did not want to attract Attention. However, with that kind of face, no one would be able to disregard him."I will pay for it. How much is it?"Did he understand what he was saying? He was paying for the five gold coins? Did he think that you would only pick monkeys in the garden?Wow. He just made me a fan. Who would have thought that someone who was grumpy like him had a big heart?The man's mouth opened and closed his mouth when he was face to face with the beta. "F-five g-golds, Beta Arthur," he stammered. His eyes darted to me, Honora, and the beta.Perhaps he was already wondering who we were. Beta Arthur grabbed five gold coins out of his pocket and gave it to him. "Next time, treat everyone with respect even if
SANDY:I heard a sharp intake of breath. Probably coming from Honora. She did not like it when I always cursed. But this mouth has already memorized all the curses I heard from the other people and I promise that I will put all of them to good use. "Excuse me? Did you say I am also a thief?" I asked in disbelief. I didn't care if I would be called a slave. That was true. But being accused that I was a thief? No freaking way!”The old man with small eyes asked, "Why do you defend that bastard? Who are you? Are you his lover, too?"A lover was the worst alibi that I could ever receive.Honora gulped, before she said, "She's—" "I am a concerned citizen of this kingdom," I said, cutting off Honora's words before she could tell the whole world how I was. Who was I? It will depend on the king himself. But one thing was for sure, he was my second chance, mate. How about me?"A concerned citizen? If you are a conceited citizen, pay me the gold coin and stop ruining my business. Starting t
SANDY:“Are you sure about this, My Queen?” Honora asked, while looking at me with a nervous expression. She could not stay still inside the carriage. Her eyes had been casually darting to the palace. We rode in a carriage and did not even ask the Lycan King about this tour, despite Honora telling me that we should inform him. What for? When he does not know about this. He was already having the best of his time with that woman.Until now, I was still upset that he left just like that. Which meant he was choosing that princess over me. I, who was his mate. “I’m very sure. I will die of boredom if I do not stroll around the marketplace. Why are you so worried? Are you scared of the punishment? I don't think it will happen. We have Arthur here. He will defend us.”The man was sulking in the corner, glaring at us. He was only forced to when we dragged him with us. “I am washing my hands of the King’s punishment,” he stated. “Don’t mind him. Let's focus on the present.”Honora was s
SANDY:Lady Bianca was also the Lycan King's mate? What the heck is happening here? How come there were two mates? For as long as I knew, the second mate would not show unless the first one was rejected.Having two mates at once was something…rare. ‘Maybe she was only bluffing,’ Rina declared. ‘You know. She might get desperate. No one in their right mind would say no to the king. Except you, of course, Sandy.’I mentally rolled my eyes. So how in the world did it happen?"Your Majesty. It's not verified information. Right, Arthur?" Parker asked, elbowing Arthur. “We should never say anything that might harm Lady Biance’s image. It's our job to protect the king. Not to spread rumors.”"It was what I heard from the lady-in-waiting. How could I deny that one? They were talking loudly. You were not there when they discussed. You were talking with a noble lady," he pointed out. Parker smiled sheepishly at Arthur. “She only asked for my help,” he defended. "I'm sure Arthur misheard, Y
SANDY:I must stop His Highness and Lady Bianca from fucking each other, was the first thing that was in my mind.I was about to barge into the Lycan King's office and pull them apart. Yes. I was not thinking about it already. I blamed this intense emotion on Rina. I could feel her jealousy towards Lady Bianca that ran as deep as the deepest ocean.Stop them? I thought. My steps faltered. Why would I stop them? Why was I so invested in them when the first thing that I wanted was to escape from the palace? Did I change my mind or anything like that?Dang it.You do not want to become a mistress. That's all. That was the reason why you're acting like some stupid woman.I was never like this to the woman whom Alpha Oswald cheated with. Until the end, I maintained my composure and never created a scandal. But this time…my body shook and I had to stop myself from barging inside.Something must be wrong with me. Mom had told me never to let my heart win. It should be my brain, the most
