************************ NEXT MORNING ************************ Masha could not stop her hands from shaking as she stared down at her clothed thighs. She knew everything was set, the servants were done with her and she looked nothing short of a bride. But the thought of being married frightened her.  Few days ago, all she looked forward to was the collaboration party. She never had any thoughts of getting married to a wolf prince and soon to be King.  Terra was standing behind her but had lost ideas of encouragements to give to her. Shortly, the door opened with Lady Jade showing up. She was adorned in a long silver-colored dress, her hair styled with beads around and an aura of leadership hovering around her. Indeed, she looked just like the mother of the bride.  "It's time, Masha", Lady Jade said with a straight face.  

Even with their fast horses and carriages, it had taken the wolves four days to get to their pack. They camped at night and journeyed during the day. And the whole time, Czar avoided Masha like a plaque. Although, Masha did same. Finally getting to the supreme pack was the biggest relieve for the wolves, but the biggest terror for Masha. Everything smelt like the wolves and she wondered how she'd co-exist with them, being the only vampire. It was already evening and dusk was near. As soon as they alighted their carriages, Czar walked away before anyone else. The king and queen were also alighting theirs while being welcomed by the servants. Masha was befuddled and just stood by her empty carriage, not knowing what to do or where to go. She felt like a slave who had just been bought. Sephora stepped out of her own carriage and noticed how Masha stood confused and rejected. The two ladies maintained eye contact for a while before Sephora finally glared and walked away. Thankfully, t

Masha couldn't believe her ears. Czar was really making out with someone when they just arrived? Was he for real? Something in her guts told her it was with Sephora. Yes, the voice definitely sounded like hers. Well, what was she even expecting? Czar had been having sex with Sephora long before the collaboration. So, why was she expecting him to stop? She wouldn't deny feeling a little hurt that she had to share her 'husband' with someone else.  Confused at that point, she walked away. Of course, she couldn't go into the room and interrupt them; it was only best for her to leave - even tho she didn't exactly know where to go.  With feeble steps, she walked away, her chest feeling so heavy. As she traipsed down the staircases,she kept thinking of how unfortunate her life had been in the past few days. She couldn't believe she was a stranger in a pack full of wolves and her supposed husband w

NEXT MORNING*********MOON HOWLERS PACKMasha woke up very early to go join Lyall in the kitchen as agreed. The chief cook was surprised when she saw how early the Lady arrived. Although, they had agreed on it, but she thought the Lady had only bluffing and wouldn't make good of her words. Surprisingly, she did. The rest of the servants were surprised seeing the vampire in the kitchen. 'shouldn't she be getting the princess' treatment?' they pondered to themselves. But Masha didn't care about the awkward stares they threw at her as her greatest joy was cooking in the kitchen. She had a suggested a new meal to Lyall for breakfast, and although, Lyall wasn't completely comfortable with it, Masha had promised her she would love it. As she worked on the vegetables, she recounted how her night had been. After meeting with the naked wolf, she had returned to the room and luckily couldn't find Czar in. Tired, she changed her dress and grabbed some sleep. And by the time she was awake tha

Masha managed to dress herself up and found her way to the dining room. There, she noticed she was almost the last to arrive. The king, the Queen, Arabella and Sephora were already present. And oh, even the nàked guy from the previous night. He was there as well. Masha guessed he was not lying when he said he was Czar's cousin.  She lowered her gaze as she walked in.  "Greetings, my king. Greetings, my queen", she bowed with a sense of chivalry. "Greetings, Masha. You should take a seat", the king gestured to an empty seat beside Arabella and gladly, Masha took it, ignoring the fact that the queen did not respond to her.  "Hello, Masha", Arabella dimpled at her.  Goodness! She looked so beautiful as she smiled - Masha thought..  "Hi", she beamed back at her.  Her eyes caught Torak also smiling at her.&
