Danica's POV
Bianca slept off before the end of a romcom drama show she was watching, while I couldn't stop thinking about my meeting with Joey.I acted okay back there but deep down, I was anything but. I couldn't help wondering if all she said was the plain truth or if she said all that out of spite to make me give up.Did my Father really have no faith in me? Did he really not think for once that I could succeed? Had he really totally dimmed me unfit of being capable of something good?Those questions kept racing through my mind, keeping me wide awake. Sleep had totally eluded me despite the tiredness that raked through me.I sat on the bed, staring at Bianca's peaceful face for a while before looking straight out of the window.All my life, everything I've done, I did to please another. Asides treating those stray rogues, battered wolves in the forest, I've never for once done anything because I wanted to. I did all to be seAlexander's POV I had been so mad at no one in particular when the tiny wolf had interrupted my golden moment with Danica. Hell, I had to bite my tongue to stop myself from cursing beneath my breath.My jaw was clenched hard and my eyes still had Rage lurking beneath the corners. There was no way the little girl would have answered my questions with that stern poker gaze that flickered between amber and blue.However, I really wanted to know. I was mad, yeah. But possibly not at the little wolf. Anyone would be stupid to be mad at the adorable yet smart one.She might have fueled Rage's restlessness but she does have good discerning eyes.Definitely, my mate was the prettiest woman I've ever seen as well. She did not lie about that.It was quite easy to find the little one's home. And when we did, we had almost missed her mother as she also set out in search of her daughter. But I smelled her in time to trace her back.She wouldn't stop thanking us. She was crying even as she did, wi

Danica's POV "I'm not giving you an option, Danica. This is an order... From father. We all know you came here to get close to the Alpha. Why don't you quit that overambitious dream of yours and know your place?" Joey continued, and honestly? Her mentioning that Father wanted me back instead of the encouragement and pride I had imagined hurts. It hurts bad but I didn't let her see how much it affected me."I don't need an option, Joey. I'd also suggest you leave quietly right now before someone notices you. Trust me you don't want to meet a certain Scarface who wouldn't hesitate to drop your head right to the ground and I doubt you'd want the Alpha himself to see you here without an invitation" I said calmly. Of course I knew she was here without an invitation, how? Because the Joey I knew would never make her comeback very quiet and sneaky. She would humiliate me at every chance she got. That much I knew. "Father isn't going to sit still, Danica. Come back home while we're all bei
Danica's POV By the time I was completely dressed, Alexander had left the room. I won't deny I felt empty, disappointed even but good gracias. I won't be late. It's just 7:30am, I have ten more minutes to get to the Royal clinic. It would be more than enough. I took one last look at myself in the mirror, my eyes catching my bracelet in the process.It has always been there, right around my fingers, but it has always stayed hidden because I never wore dresses that left my arms revealed. All the dresses I had were a compilation of whatever Joey finds unattractive and ugly. Weird long gowns with long sleeves that always left me looking like a shapeless buffalo.But right now? I did choose the least classier dress of the countless ones in that dressing room, but it was a dress that defined my upper body perfectly before flowing down effortlessly to a few inches below my knees. The sleeves are three-quarter in length and it left my bracelet in an obvious display.I've always loved and ch
Joey's POV "Father, Danica isn't home yet. I told you she would be up to no good at the royal palace, didn't I? But you didn't listen to me! What if she already got us all in trouble?" I yelled angrily, not liking how composed and calm he looked even in times like this."You don't have to worry, Joey. I got a letter from the Alpha. She would be undergoing trial at the royal clinic for a week, however in the next three days, she can't come home. It's a direct order from Alpha Alexander himself" Father explained and I felt my head pound."What? What do you mean by trial?" I asked, eyes narrowing at my father but then the tiny confirmation smile curled up at the corner of his lips."Your sister is going through the trial to become a staff member at the royal clinic. If she passes through this in flying colors, she could become a doctor. Not just the useless Omega she had always been" Father explained, his eyes glinting with pride. It made my stomach churn with irritation."Father, you
Danica's POV The bright ray of the morning sun seeped through the comfort of my eyes being tightly closed. I blinked once and then twice, trying to adjust to the impact before opening my eyes completely.My heavy eyes moved round the room, trying to register the fact that this wasn't a dream. I was really laying down in a beautiful dream room... Oh and yes, with a strong arm wrapped tightly around my waist like I was going to run off into some wilderness.Alexander. A small smile touched my lips as I recalled the events of last night after he assured me he would never hit me over a mistake.He returned to sniff me out a few more times before flicking that devilish tongue of his over my bare neck and for some reason, I almost got a mini orgasm from that one lick. It felt like I got marked right there and then.From there, he got me off the kitchen island and the minute I said goodnight, I bolted to leave but he wasn't done with me. Not even nearly.He wanted to walk me to my room, si
