로그인RASMUS’S POV “Can’t sleep?” my wolf inquired. It was my third time rolling from one end of the bed to the other. “Yes,” I responded and sat up. The duvet covered my lap to my legs, while my arms were folded. I kept looking straight in front of me and it wasn’t that something had changed about the view. My wolf ought to know what this was about. I took a step that would pass for bold that night, I made Maya realize that I was her second chance mate and in return, she was my second chance mate. It felt as though I had let go of a very huge burden. For the longest, I had been waiting for when she would find out. It dawned on me at some point that I would have to make her find out, so I decided to take her under the full moon in the woods. The Moon Goddess made an Omega my second chance mate and I didn’t really know how to feel about that, if I were to be honest. It was said that the Moon Goddess doesn’t and never makes mistakes. “When do you plan to tell her?” “I don’t
MAYA’S POV “Who could have done this?” The clothes in the closet that Lycan Rasmus said belonged to me had all been torn. The shoes weren’t left out. The bedspread smelt like some part of it was burnt, and the curtains were gone. Saying that the room was in a bad state would be an understatement. It was in a terrible state. While I was on my way back to the mansion, I couldn’t wait to lie on the bed. I didn’t see this coming. I had a feeling that I might know who was responsible for this. There was water on some part of the floor, I had just realized. An offensive odor oozed up from some corner of the room, it was really bad. “I don’t deserve this,” I mentioned while nodding. I wasn’t eager to leave for Helen’s room because she might pester me into telling her what happened between Lycan Rasmus and me, or I might even be compelled to tell her all about it. Miss Kira was trying to make my life in the mansion a living hell, and I didn’t think this had to do with the fact
MAYA’S POV “Mate,” my wolf howled. “Second chance mate,” I found myself muttering. I wasn’t wrong, it had become more glaring. Lycan Rasmus was my second chance mate. I didn’t see the signs all this while because I didn’t have a wolf that could have told me about it. If he hadn’t brought me under the full moon, I wouldn’t have realized. I gulped, it was all I had been doing ever since I found out. It felt surreal. How could the Lycan be my second chance mate? He took over from his wolf, and now he was in his human form. For the very first time, I looked straight into his eyes, and in return, he did the same. He wouldn’t punish me for it, I was sure. “When did you find out?” I asked him in a low tone. “The minute I set my eyes on you in the woods. That was shortly after you let out a guttural scream.” I knew where this would end. He would reject me, and we would both act like nothing like this ever happened. There was no way I could fit into his world, just like I did
MAYA’S POV “If I never return, I need you to tell my story,” I said to Helen. I didn’t want to be forgotten just like that. If she managed to write my story, perhaps history wouldn’t forget me. What I asked of her might be me asking for too much, I was fully aware. She didn’t give me a response, it meant that she wasn’t promising me she would do it. If I said I wasn’t nervous at the moment, I would be telling a lie. It was probably written all over me already. “You have to leave now, you can’t keep him waiting,” she mentioned after staring at the wall clock for less than two seconds. For hours, Helen and I had been in her room, thinking of ways to get me to remain in the mansion tonight and not step out with Lycan Rasmus. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to come up with something. I had no idea where Lycan Rasmus was about to take me, and I couldn’t trust him in the process. I had no option but to go with him, or he wouldn’t hesitate to take my life, even though he saved i
MAYA’S POV I knew that I would pay for Lycan Rasmus’s words to Miss Kira, it would only be a matter of time. Her hostility towards me was justified, it was a result of the pack’s hierarchy. “You had no right to chase her out of the room I put her in.” Those were the words Lycan Rasmus said to Miss Kira in my presence some minutes ago. Her crime was asking me to move to the maids quarters. I did not think Lycan Rasmus knew, but the maids made space for me. Lycan Rasmus was not giving me special treatment by giving me a room in his building. The maids quarters was full already, so he allowed me to stay in his building since he had a spare room there. After he said those words to Miss Kira, he went straight to the living room while she remained on the spot. I found out that he traveled out of the pack while I was in the sickbay. The news of my failure must have gotten to him. “He has probably forgotten that he sent for me,” I muttered. I had been on the spot for minutes now
RASMUS’S POV It felt good to be back home. If it was not so important, I would not have left the pack four days ago only to return now. No one in the mansion missed me, I knew that without being told. “Be careful with those boxes,” I instructed the guards standing close to the car’s trunk. Some of the boxes contained fragile things. I returned earlier than expected, and that was because I could not stop feeling the urge to return home. I did not have unfinished business in the pack at the moment, so I could not comprehend why. My eyes lifted to the sky. I saw the sun and not the moon. It was a sunny afternoon. I could already feel the pangs of hunger, I had nothing good to eat on my way back by choice. “Welcome, Lycan,” Beta Kierra said when she got to where I stood. The honk of the car must have announced my presence. This was not my first time leaving the pack in her hands, so I trusted that she held things down while I was away. I led the way while she walked behind m
