Semua Bab RED STRING: Bab 11 - Bab 20

THE NEW ALPHA SLOW ROMANTIC MUSIC surrounds the whole place. Every couple is dancing and some are chatting while drinking champagne. Men tried to ask me to dance but I humbly refused. And also, I don't know how to waltz. "No one asks you for a dance yet?" Luna Elondra asked me. I didn't notice her coming. I gave her a timid smile. "I prefer it here, Luna Elondra." Luna Elondra laughs. "That's nonsense. A gorgeous lady like don't just sit here and wait until the night is over. There is so much to do tonight, my dear. Come with me and," she paused, "leave the coat," she added, pointing at the coat I am wearing. I was hesitant but I couldn't refuse the Luna. I gently placed Alpha Lucien's coat on the chair and let Luna Elondra drag me into the crowd. She introduces me to her daughters, Einah, who is eighteen, and Marianna, who is twenty. As I engaged in a conversation with them, I noticed that Einah somehow reminds me of Ayla, sweet and high-spirited. Marianna on the other hand i

ALPHA RAVEN MONFEORITHE KNOCK FROM outside awoke me from my sleep. I rose from the bed and comb my shoulder-length hair with my fingers as I strode towards the door.I was welcomed by Marianna and two other servants after I opened the door.I let them in and greeted them sheepishly. Marianna nods her head and instructs the servants to settle the food on the table. They left shortly after."Did you have a good sleep?" Marianna asked after she settled herself on the couch."Yes... I'm sorry I woke up late," I apologized timidly. Then I sat on the chair in front of her.Marianna smiled at me and helped me prepare the food. "That's okay, at least we know that you're comfortable with us."I noticed that there was plenty of food on the table so invited her to join me. And also, I don't really like eating alone."Thank you but I'm good. Alpha Lucien personally had this prepared for you," she said while crossing her legs.I was stunned. An image of Lucien, cooking in the kitchen never once c

THE FIFTH ALPHAUPON ARRIVING AT the pack house, I quickly marched to the kitchen to look for Ayla. Lucien insisted on coming with me but I firmly told him to take a rest first.He was hard to convince and I am glad Nereza was there to help me.Before he went upstairs, he kissed me on my forehead. It was embarrassing because Nereza was there, watching her brother kissing me."Sissy, you are finally back!" Ayla exclaimed before hugging me.I let out a chuckle and returned her hug. "I was only gone for two days, Ayla. And oh! I have something for you." I hand her a couple of paper bags.Her eyes gleamed with both amusement and curiosity. She took the paper bags and checked what was inside."Wow, did you buy these, Sissy?""It was actually from Einah. She wants you to have them."Ayla's brows creased with confusion. "But why?""I happened to tell her about you and she thinks that you and she are kind of alike. My stories about you somehow amused her."I was smiling as I recall the things

HIS RED STRINGLUCIEN'S EYEBROWS FURROWED. "Talk about what?"I lowered my gaze and took a single step backward. When I lifted my head, my eyes darted to his clenching jaw. My eyes lingered there for a couple of seconds until I finally look him in the eyes. Regret soon rushed into me when I saw his eyes darken."What's the problem? Did I do something wrong?" he asked.I instantly panicked. "No! I just wanted to clear things between us."I lowered my head to escape his pressing gaze.He sighed deeply. "Clarify what? And why are you avoiding my gaze?"I tried looking at him but his expression of desperation for an answer is making it hard for me to explain. I suddenly don't know how to put my emotions in words.Now I come to realize that we can not simply choose the perfect words to say when nervousness surged us. I should have thoroughly thought about this. But I know that I needed to deliver my answer."W-Well... I---""Sissy, I'm sorry I took so long. I---"I wasn't able to finish wh

CLARRISEA WEEK PASSED since Lucien and I talked and after that, we hadn't had a chance to talk again. I was busy and so is he. Sometimes he goes with the Hunters to hunt those rogues who were located within the boundaries. I also heard that the Alpha of Xynmorth is also hunting those rogues. But it wasn't just rogues he was hunting, he was also looking for wolf hunters. I was busy doing my chores in the kitchen when Ayla came running. "Sissy! Have you heard the news?!" The franticness in her voice is evident."What news, Ayla?" I asked while wiping my hands."Some of the rogues who attacked the carriage are already been found! But sad to say the coachman didn't make it. They found his dead body floating in the river," Ayla said with pity.I felt relieved but I feel sad for the man who died. It turns out that he was on his way back to town when the rogues attack him. "But the rogues were not alone. The rebels are with them as well. And did you know that they also attacked the land
