Simon watched as Reyna continually searched his house with her suspicious eyes.Having her here, and at this moment made him uncomfortable.He saw her eyes were fixated on his shirt pocket. He pushed the piece of paper that stuck outside his pocket in.Reyna was taking his chances sending the letter to Freya. His inside we're becoming increasingly hot. The atmosphere was so clingy that he could barely breathe."Why don't you sit, so we could talk. You got the wrong idea about me," Reyna's voice pulled him from his thoughts.Reyna walked to the seat which she sat on earlier and settled in. She cleared her throat."I would love some water, please," she requested.Simon sauntered to his kitchen to get some water upon her request . This was more rambling. Why was she acting cool all of a sudden? Something was definitely off, but he couldn't figure it out.Or, maybe she's not as bad as he thinks. He had his many doubts, but he was going to watch and see.Reyna stood up in a spurt when she
Freya walked Majestically into an enormous hall. Who knew a dining hall could be this big.As soon as she woke up this morning, she was invited over for breakfast. She expected a small table with two chairs beside it.The table before her had varieties of edibles, which shouldn't wait to ponce on. She composed herself as she walked towards the large table.A court maid drew a chair beneath the table and gestured for her to have her seat. She sat down. She was beaming. For a long time, she hasn't gotten such care."I see you're getting used to this place," Alpha Rowland said as soon as she sat down."Thanks to you, I'm enjoying such luxury," she giggled.Initially, she thought Alpha Rowland treated her kindly because he wanted something from her, but now she can tell that his intentions are pure.She had a peaceful sleep that haven't had since she left her pack. This pack was welcoming. She felt safe and wished that it would last long."Shall we?" Rowland gestured to the unattended di
Simon was still confused by Reyna's words. She sounded a warning. It was a clear one.Something about Reyna seemed off. As someone who cared so much for Freya as a friend, she has changed a lot.He found it hard to put the pieces together. Maybe I could be some kind of phase. The skin on his forehead folded. His skin has grown dry the past few days.He barely had time to care for himself. Just in the space of a few weeks, his appearance has become shabby.The more he thought about it, on her end, it was obvious that Reyna had cut ties with Freya. It was unbelievable that Reyna could change in just a short period of time. Alan influenced her current behavior. There was no doubt.He stood between the road that led to his pack, and that of the one where he might find Freya. He remembered that she mentioned it being a small pack. It might be easy to locate. He became concerned. What if he finds Freya and it triggers more trouble. Alan isn't someone who would lay low easily. Alan has num
Simon didn't know how to react. Alan threw such a question at him. He couldn't find an answer to it.Were the bruises that obvious? They were supposed to have healed by now. His body was not healing as it should.Was Alan concerned about his appearance, or just wanted to get some information from him, he couldn't tell. Alan was still glaring at him. There was no way of escape for him. He would have to give an answer to Alan's question, if not there would be no other conversation. He would be stuck in Alan's chambers, too. That's how Alan was.Simon cleared his throat. He should tell him what happened. It was becoming suffocating in the chamber."I was attacked," Simon voiced.Alan raised his brow in surprise."Attacked? You must have caused some trouble," Alan scoffed. He moved a bit from where he stood, creating a space between him and Simon.Simon sighed in relief. He wouldn't have to look at Alan from up close.Alan walked to the chair he sat on before. He settled in it with his
"What you're asking me to do is….Simon had started to say, but was cut short."What is wrong with my order?" Alan questioned.Simon lowered his head. He fiddled with his fingers. Alan was putting him in a tight spot. If he were to make any opposition, he might be thrown out this time for good. He has to remain in the pack no matter what. He has to stay for things to work out just the way he wanted!"The thing is…" Simon paused.He stared at Alan. He pressed his lips into a thin line."Spill it!" Alan said with a raised voice."I think you are overreacting," Simon stated."What did you say? Overreacting?" Alan laughed.He was baffled at Simon's words. Simon was taking his quest of being alert as he was overreacting.He strolled towards Simon, his eyes fixated on him. He has to let Simon know his place. Simon ought to learn how to utter words."What do you know? You know nothing!" Alan barked.Simon's lips trembled. Even if he was to reply to Alan, he was at a loss for words. "Now,
Reyna wished Simon knew how she so much wanted to be by Alan's side. She was doing everything possible to protect her mate's bond with Alan.She can't let Alan go. She was willing to do anything within and outside her capability, to ensure that no one else will have him.Simon couldn't question her further. He felt it was useless to do so. She didn't look like she'd give in anything soon. Even though she said her actions were for survival, he doubted it.………………………………Freya descended the stairs of the cool mansion. Everywhere was serene. The clicking of her shoe echoed as she walked casually.Rowland's pack was a good place to be. She adapted to the environment so quick. She haven't been this comfortable in a long while. The inhaled deeply, the re-energized ambiance that found its way into the mansion.Rowland was heaven sent. She has been enjoying so much luxury that she never imagined she would enjoy when she stepped foot into the pack.At first, when she met with Rowland, he seemed
Even though she didn't tell Akira about Alan, she was sure Rowland's pack members would help her if a problem came up.She lifted her eyes to the sky. Its color was beautiful. Was it because she talked to Akira about Simon?"By any means, do you have feelings for him?" Akira suddenly popped up a question.Freya didn't know what answer to give. She was sure of how she felt at the moment. She just wanted Simon to be safe. He was someone who sacrificed his time to help her stay alive, after all. So, she only smiled when she heard Akira's question.As they walked back to the pack, Freya was still hooked in her thoughts. She couldn't stop thinking about Simon. "What was he up to? What must have happened to him? Are things going well for him?" These were the questions that filled her brain.Akira noticed she wasn't paying attention to let her be. She didn't get to ask Freya why she thought if the person she told her about was doing well or not. "Freya must have something she isn't ready t
Alan was strolling down the hallway. He couldn't remember the last time he strolled like this. It was recharging. He inhaled the sweet smell of flowers which the air blew his way.He suddenly halted. He didn't know why, but Reyna just came to his mind. Ever since he announced her as Luna, he hasn't had a proper conversation with her. He thought it was best to do so since he was passing by her chambers.He walked in hurried footsteps to get chambers. Even if it was for a brief moment, he has to speak with her to know the nature of things here.When he arrived at her chambers, he was surprised to see Simon there with Reyna. He wondered what the discussion entailed. He didn't notice anything suspicious, so he assumed it must be a discussion between the Beta and Luna.His plan was to have a meeting with Simon as soon as he finished speaking with Reyna.Now that he stood before them, he debated within himself whom to speak with first. He glanced at Simon, then at Reyna. This continued for
