Aree’s POV “Do you want to live in my room?” Zavier asked me casually while we were walking in the hallway. My eyes widened as I looked at him. I quickly shook my head, “No, I mean. That won’t be necessary. I mean, you’re the king and…” He looked at me and raised an eyebrow. “And?” I averted my gaze. “And… I’m just an omega. Everyone will be shocked if I live in your room,” I murmured. “She’s right, Zavier. Everyone will be jealous of her,” Claude agreed. Zavier looked at me, and then a few minutes later, he nodded. “All right then.” “Arrange a bedroom for her,” Claude nodded. “I’ll go and inform Beatrix,” he answered. Zavier nodded, but he was still looking at me. My cheeks burned in embarrassment. I quickly look away. Why did he ask me to live with him? I mean, we’re mates, but everything’s different. Claude was right. Everyone will question my existence here. I let out a sigh after a few minutes of walking. Claude came back with someone. That must be Beatrix he is talking abou
Aree’s POV“Who is she?” I heard them whisper. They looked at me as if I was the intruder. What’s wrong with them?“Is there something wrong with me?” I asked Beatrix. She shook her head, “No, my lady.” Then, what’s with their stares?“What pack do you come from?” One of them asked me. Beatrix tapped my shoulder, “Just ignore her, my lady. You don’t have to answer her question.”I closed my eyes and sighed, “It’s okay. I should tell them. If I won’t, they will secretly investigate me still,” I replied. I don’t want to say anything about me or my past, but I don’t have a choice either.“From Riverdale Pack,” I disclosed. Most of them looked at me with confusion in their eyes. “Riverdale? I haven’t seen you there. Are you sure?” The blonde girl said suspiciously.I bit my lip while nervously looking at them. Why do they have to be suspicious? Can they just ignore me? I don’t want to say I’m an omega of that pack.Someone was about to talk again, but one of the betas arrived and saved me
Aree’s POVI couldn’t look straight at him as I sat on the edge of his bed. Even though he is my mate, I still feel intimidated because I regard him as the king of Lycans.His eyes never left mine. He was looking at me as if he didn’t want me to lose in his sight. His eyes darkened as he started to walk in my direction.I quickly looked away. I wasn’t sure how he would treat me. Does he have the ability to heal others? Usually, wolves can only heal themselves but not everyone. Oh yes, I remember--- he’s not a normal wolf, after all. He’s a mighty Lycan King.I sighed and looked at him again. He was standing in front of me, just a few meters away. Should I ask him what I should do? If he would heal me, I should rest on the bed, right?I was about to lie down when his deep voice interrupted me. “Take off your clothes,” he said, causing me to look at him, shocked.“Pardon?” I asked. He didn’t talk and kept his gaze on me. I bit my bottom lips and closed my eyes. I don’t have any choice b
Aree’s POVZavier crossed his arm on his chest while looking at the twins. I found his grumpy face adorable. I closed my lips tightly to suppress my laughter and averted my gaze from him.Callister wiped the blood from the corner of his lips while still cursing. While Claude, his face was deadly serious. Zavier faked a cough to get their attention, “So, what happened?” Callister rolled his eyes and walked towards the sofa, and sat there.“His mate did that,” Claude answered for his brother. Zavier’s grumpy face changes to amusement. “Really? Kindly elaborate on it?”“Sure. Our mate---” Zavier stopped him. “Our mate?” he asked in surprise. Claude nodded, “Yes, Callister’s mate is my mate too. We haven’t seen her for years, so I never expect her to be our mutual mate.”Oh, that’s unexpected indeed. “Then? How did this mysterious lady manage to hurt him? I’m curious and amazed,” Zavier said while grinning widely. He’s doing everything not to laugh but still burst into laughter.“This is
Aree’s POVWhile I’m sleeping, I feel like someone’s embracing me. His scent lingers on my nose as I breathe in. I buried my face in the pillows even more and inhaled deeply. I don’t want to think he’s here with me because I know he’s not. I’m not as special as they think. Why would the king spend more time with a girl like me?I closed my eyes tighter as I pulled up the blanket. I refuse to think about nonsense matters. I’m only being delusional. I let myself fall into the darkness. When I woke up, I realized I was alone. I’m right; I’m just hallucinating.I rubbed my eyes and stretched my body. This is the most fantastic sleep of my life. I never thought I would rest like this after what I experienced before. I slowly looked around; I couldn’t help but wonder where he was. Maybe he’s busy, or he’s with someone else.I dismissed that strange thought and shrugged my shoulder. I should get up now. I was about to open the door when someone suddenly entered. The door nearly hit me, but I
Aree’s POVHer smile widened when she saw my confused expression didn’t change. She moved closer and tapped my shoulder, “Don’t be shocked. I’m telling the truth. And to let you know, my power lies in healing, not in reading minds,” she playfully said.Oh, if that’s the case. Is she the senior healer? Callister and Claude’s mate? I was slightly shocked to see her this early. After what happened to her and the twins, I thought she wouldn't return anymore. It seems likely that the twins must have done something to bring her back this soon.As I glanced around, I realised that the girls who had mocked me earlier were still here, making me feel self-conscious all over again. Their disapproving glares bore into me as they shook their head in dissatisfaction.In just a few seconds, they started to leave one by one. Once they had all left, I found myself alone with the healer. I saw her shake her head in disbelief, “Just ignore their words. They were only jealous because the king values you,
Aree’s POVI leaned forward to hold the door handle, but then I hesitated and stepped back. I don’t have the courage to barge in. Upon hearing their increasing moans, I tightly shut my eyes in disbelief. As I opened them again, my jaw clenched, unable to believe this bullshit.What I’m hoping for? That he’ll remain loyal to me is just because I’m his mate? I realised I’m being delusional. I need to calm myself down at this moment. I gathered my thoughts and took a deep breath. I gazed at the door, mustering the courage to knock.The noise inside gradually subsided, and then I heard his voice inviting me to come in. I tightly pressed my lips together as I grasped the door handle and entered. The moment I entered, I noticed a she-wolf standing up from his lap, with her shirt halfway unbuttoned.I wasn’t able to say a single word. And I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t shocked and hurt by what I saw. I could only stare at them. The she-wolf was looking back at me. However, he stayed seating
I wiped the sweat from my forehead while still wiping the glass window. I let out a sigh. I have to finish it now before Stella sees me. But I was always the unlucky one."I know she's really annoying. Every time I see her, my day is ruined," I turned around when I heard her voice.Stella was the beloved daughter of the Alpha. From the first time she saw me, I knew she would never like me.She was beating up her personal maid the first day I was sent here. I froze, praying she wasn’t the one I was going to serve.“Who are you? Why are you standing here like a statue?” I can hear the annoyance in her voice Stella got red hair like fire and her dark green eyes fixed on me.She looks so beautiful.“I'm sorry. I am just new her---” I didn’t have the chance to complete my sentence because she raised an eyebrow and cut me off.“Never mind. Just get out of my face; you’re annoying me,” I nearly raised an eyebrow, but I stopped myself.“Sorry---“She raised a hand. “Uh-huh. Don't talk,” As she
