“I love my new roles and mostly the office. I glanced ahead of me, appreciating the beautiful view of the sky from the window. “The best thing about it is that it's right beside your office.” I flashed a smile at him. “Yes, I did that so I can check up on you all the time and will make sure you're safe." He asserted. There was a knock on the door and it turned out to be none other than Mrs. Bea. “Good afternoon Alpha and…” her gaze settled on me, and she furrowed her eyebrows in confusion, probably wondering whether or not she could call me Luna or mutt like she was used to. “Good afternoon.” she simply added. "Good afternoon. Is there anything else you need?" "Yes Alpha. I just realized and regarding the chores, now that she’s not the omega, who will attend to them?"“I almost forgot that.” He glanced at me. “It’d be best if we assign people that’ll be willing and ready to do it and will be paid for their services, not out of forced labor.” I suggested.She frowned and glanced a

“So Mae has been working here without a complete degree, isn’t that unfair?” Keegan said while typing away on his laptop. “What do you mean?” “She’s just graduating, duh, so she hasn’t received her graduation certificate yet.” I chuckled and made my hair into two French braids and wore two gold earrings that were going to match my necklace and blue knee-length dress. “Will you be returning today?” He asked, still not taking his gaze off his laptop. “Today?” I huffed. “When we went for Scarlett's parent’s wedding anniversary party, was the entire time spent traveling back and forth a day?” I folded my arms across my chest. He only chuckled and still didn’t raise his head. I wanted to know what he thought of my appearance but didn’t want to sound too desperate this time. “If there’s one thing I’m excited about, it’s that Vladimir is returning to his pack and not trying to make my life a mess as always.” “Yes, I agree.” What the hell was I even saying? I just wanted to know his th

“Kill you? Jane, what’s going on?” “I’m so sorry Keegan. She’s Rylee. I saw her when I went on a stroll and she claimed that she left her pack because they were maltreating her. Her parents were murdered so now she doesn’t have anywhere to go to and her pack wanted to exhaust her life as their slave so she had been running for two or three days before she found me. She hadn’t eaten for three days so I brought her here and made her food, I kept her here for security.” I said in one breath. “I’m the Alpha. I’m very observant. Did you think you could hide a child in your room from me forever?” The frown he had on scared me so much, it made me feel like an omega speaking to an Alpha again. “I already heard you speaking to someone, I observed that you were sneaky, her scent, my nostrils are super sensitive, so I could pick the scent of a rogue around. I knew you’ve been hiding someone from me but I trusted you to let me know the truth.” His voice was very cold and that made me start to

“Yes. It's a good thing we finally met again.” She was wearing a long dress that covered her entire skin except her head. Was she a vampire that didn’t want to be exposed to daylight? “Yes, I guess so.” I smiled at her and was able to point out a few resemblances between us unlike last time. We had similar nose shapes and jawlines, I observed. “What exactly is going on with you being Keegan's mate?” She asked. “I don’t understand you.” “The party. When he asked you to be his mate…” she added. “Oh, that. Of course… isn’t that what you want?” I tittered, unsure of how to react to what she had to say and rose to my feet. “That is what we want, but both of your reactions and emotions seemed way too genuine to be fake. You were moved to tears.” She stated.“It’s all fine.” I waved a hand over my face. “You shouldn’t forget her revenge, I hope you haven't?" She narrowed her eyes at me. “Of course I haven't, but I've been thinking about it. I've been trying to reconsider a few things

“How? Please let me know what he can do." I begged. “Well… just the normal things mates do and how it works.” she shrugged. “But this is so stupid. I didn’t know being in heat was supposed to make me feel hot, I’m literally on fire.”“It’s not the same for all female werewolves, but I assume you’re one of those with an extremely crazy body reaction to being in heat. Weren’t you experiencing a few signs before today?”“I don’t know…” I suddenly remembered that I had been feeling really strange. “Yes, I’ve been.”“You ought to have prepared far ahead, right from the first day you experienced the signs. Is this your first year?” She asked as she turned on the Air conditioner.“Y-yes.” I was still very sweaty despite the AC. “Oh, that explains why. Don’t worry, you’ll be fine soon.” “Fine?! I can never be fine with this pain. I feel like I’m about to burn into flames. Is there no drug for it?” “No, just your mate.” “Please help me.” I cried. “Call Keegan.”“I’ve tried mind-linking h
