I immediately removed my hand from Ethan’s chest as if the fire burned my hand. My face was hot. “Uh, I want you to meet my mother. She is my adoptive mother, but she loves me, and so do I.” “Adoptive mother? What happened to your real mother?” I blinked my eyes a few times and then looked at the dashboard. “My parents have passed away. So, my adoptive mother raised me.” “I see.” I gulped to lessen my sadness. Grief filled my heart every time I thought of my late parents. This time was no different. “So, what should I tell my mom about you?” “What do you mean?” “I mean, what are we now?” Ethan reached out his hand to my neck. Then he released my seat belt and carried my body onto his lap. Afterward, he stroked my neck on the bite mark area. “We are mates, spouses, husband and wife in my world.” “Oh!” “Yes, darling. But if I told your mother like that, she might faint. So, let’s tell her that I’m your boyfriend.” I said nothing. Would my mom accept it? Considering she would kn

~ Helena ~ I prepared to go to work the following day. I worked as a librarian at the Moon Public Library (MPL). My work time varied from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Monday and Wednesday and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on other days. I had a day off only on Sunday. I got used to being at my workplace a half-hour before my work hour began. I wanted to organize everything before the first visitor came. Like now, I tidied the books in the politics section. Then I picked some books from the visitors’ tables. I sorted them according to the book sections and placed them in the cart. Later, I pushed the cart and put each book back on its shelf. Afterward, I checked the list of book borrowers. I was responsible only for the book collections (the new books and express books) though the library also had DVDs, VCDs, VHSs, etc. The loan period for new books was two weeks, while it was a week for express books. If any borrowers exceeded the loan period by three days, I would email them to remind them to return

I walked outside to the lobby and then to the library’s small garden. Some visitors sat on the available chairs, enjoying the cool shades from many trees and flowers fragrances. I sat on a chair, followed by Kenneth. “So what do you want to say?” “Helena, please, don’t be like this.” “What?! We have nothing between us. You came in the middle of my work hour. Should I smile and pretend nothing happened?” “I want to apologize.” I folded my arms over my chest and sighed. “Apology accepted. Now, go home.” “Helena, why do you change so much?” “What do you want? I have forgiven you. So leave now!” “Does it mean you want to be with me again?” I stared at Kenneth as if two horns were growing on his head. His ignorance was unbelievable! How dare he asked me to be back with him? “Did you hit your head on a rock or something?” “What do you mean? I haven’t experienced such a thing.” “Since you talked nonsense as if you were out of your mind!” I yelled at him, too angry to lower my voice

~ Ethan ~ I had a long chat with Red last night in my room. I was about to leave for Crescent Island today. “Alpha King, let me accompany you to Crescent Island tomorrow.” “No, I need you and some of our people to check on Helena and her mother. I don’t want something bad happen to them while I’m leaving.” “But Alpha, I’m your Beta. So, wherever you go, I should be beside you.” I nodded a little. “I know you mean well, Red. Yet I can handle this myself.” I sighed and looked away. “It’s been bad that Ernie and a few she-wolves knew about the situation. I don’t want it to spread further.” “I don’t think Ernie nor other she-wolves will talk to others, Alpha.” “I hope so since Ernie is also Helena’s maid. It’s funny how fate brought her as my Lunas’ maid.” I rubbed my stiff neck. “I already tried to select another she-wolf to be Helena’s maid, but it turned out that Ernie came to my room and took care of Helena.” “No worries, Alpha. Ernie won’t bring any harm. If she did, I would b

I said nothing, staring at the bouquet I held. “I already have a boyfriend, Kenneth. Do you see these beautiful flowers? It’s from him.” “You lie!” He hissed at me. I shook my head. “No, I’m telling you the truth!” “Only a day after we broke up?! Have you been cheating behind my back before we broke up?” I couldn’t believe it! Why did he accuse me cheating? It was he who cheated on me! “It’s you who cheated behind my back before we broke up. Now, you accuse me of doing that? I’m not as low as you!” “So how can you have a boyfriend in a day?” He frowned. “Well, just for your information, mister. Someone thinks I’m desirable and attractive. He is serious with me. Yesterday, he met my mother too and told her his real intention to marry me.” I stared at Kenneth with an icy stare. “Although you didn’t think too highly of me, Ethan did.” “He’s only after sex with you.” “No!” “Really? Oh, right, you are frigid. You can’t satisfy a man in bed.” “You’re wrong! Ethan and I have alread
