Semua Bab Alpha or Lycan : Otsana's Dilemma : Bab 41 - Bab 50

~Otsana"Can I at least go pick up my phone from the quarters?" I pleaded as Tabitha ushered me briskly toward the kitchen. "I need to make a phone call.""There's no time for that," Tabitha replied sharply, her voice edged with impatience. "The Lycan King is waiting for you."I sighed, letting my shoulders slump in resignation as I trailed behind her. My frustration boiled beneath the surface. "Tabitha just ruined everything," I muttered under my breath, a mix of disappointment and irritation clouding my thoughts. "I can’t even call or text Alpha Ralph to let him know I won’t make it." Grabbing a tray of food, I moved with deliberate slowness, my mind still preoccupied. "He’s going to be so disappointed," I whispered to myself, feeling the weight of guilt settle in my chest. "I was really looking forward to spending the evening with him."The tray felt heavier with each step as I followed Tabitha out of the kitchen, battling the urge to let my frustration spill over. Why couldn’t

~OtsanaAs I walked down the corridor with my tray in hand, the faint sound of my footsteps echoed off the stone walls, a rhythm that seemed to match the quickened beat of my heart. The corridor was dimly lit, with only a few torches flickering at intervals, casting long, wavering shadows that danced along the rough stone floor. But my attention was drawn away from the flickering light by the presence of the Lycan King, Noah, standing with an air of quiet command. His eyes, sharp and intense, were fixed on me, and I could feel the weight of his gaze even before I met his gaze. My pulse jumped, a mixture of surprise and a strange thrill coursing through me as he pushed off the wall and approached. There was an effortless grace to his movements that belied the power behind them. His smile was enigmatic, charming in a way that left me uncertain of his true intentions. “I believe this is yours,” he said, his voice a low, resonant rumble that seemed to wrap around me like a velvet cloa

~OtsanaWe shifted back into our human forms, our naked bodies steaming in the cool embrace of the night air. The silence around us was broken only by the faint rustle of leaves and the distant hoot of an owl."I found her just a few days ago," I said, my voice barely above a whisper. Ralph's piercing gaze fixed on me, his brow furrowed deeply, disappointment etched into every line of his face. "Why didn't you tell me you found your wolf?" he asked, his tone laced with hurt and confusion. His voice struck a chord in me, each word laden with emotion that made my chest tighten. I bit my lip, unable to meet his eyes. My heart felt heavy, a storm of guilt and regret brewing within me. "I was going to tell you, Ralph," I murmured, my voice soft and filled with contrition. "That’s why I came to your chambers that night." I hesitated, the memory of that moment still raw. "But you asked me to leave, and I didn’t get the chance." Ralph exhaled sharply, his shoulders sagging as though the

~NoahI stood frozen, my mind struggling to process what had just happened. Otsana was walking toward me, her eyes locked onto mine with an intensity that made everything else blur. In that moment, it felt like the world had disappeared, leaving only the two of us.From the first time I saw her, I knew. She was my mate. She awakened something deep inside me, a feeling so strong and unfamiliar it scared me.The room fell silent, the kind of silence that felt heavy, like every single person was holding their breath, watching. My thoughts were a whirlwind, unable to settle or make sense of the storm inside me.Time seemed to slow. My heart pounded loudly in my chest, and each breath felt like a struggle. It was as if the world had stopped, waiting. But then, just as quickly, the moment broke.Otsana’s expression changed. Her brows furrowed in confusion, and she glanced at the crowd. Suddenly, realization washed over her, and her cheeks turned red with embarrassment. “No, no! This can’t b

~OtsanaThe small maid quarters felt colder than usual. I sat on the edge of the bed, clutching my knees to my chest, tears streaming down my face. Noah’s words echoed in my mind, each one a blade slicing through my heart. He had left . The mate bond we shared felt like a curse, chaining me to someone who could tear me apart so effortlessly.A soft knock on the door broke my thoughts. Before I could answer, Kate and a few of the other maids bustled in, chatting animatedly.“Did you hear?” one of them began, her voice filled with excitement. “Otsana’s mated to the Lycan King, Noah!”Kate’s face lit up. “Is it true? Are you really mated to him, Otsana?”The other maids chimed in, their voices overlapping with congratulations and hushed awe. But then, they noticed me. Kate’s smile faltered as her eyes fell on the tears staining my cheeks.“Oh, Otsana,” Kate whispered, rushing to sit beside me. “I’m so sorry. We heard… we heard about what happened to Ralph.”The others murmured their agre
