"Are they werewolves?" Valerie whispered. "I don't think they are.""Of course, they are. Why would you say that?""I..."Leonard tapped the table slightly and they stopped talking."Babe," he called.Valerie looked around for whom Leonard was referring to.Ariel nudged her. "He is talking to you."Valerie blinked slightly. He had never called her that not even in front of the elders.Why is he calling her that now?"Ye-yes?""These are the teachers I have chosen for you. They are the best. You can decide to have them all as your teachers or you can choose the ones you want."Valerie stared at them. She didn't feel comfortable around them. She didn't know why."Have you made your choice?" Ariel asked."They can all stay," Valerie answered."Thank you, Luna," they chorused uniformly."Arden, you can take them out and brief them again on the rules and their jobs," Leonard said."Yes, Alpha," Arden stood up and bowed. "Come with me," he told the teachers and they followed him out.Valeri

Leonard was shocked but he loved it. He held her when she tried to move away."Running away?" He asked.Valerie stared at him. She wasn't running away. What else was she supposed to do? "Not so fast," he mumbled, pulling her closer to him.He locked his lips on hers, kissing her so tightly. Valerie groaned. She tried to pull away but he held her close.Leonard's hands moved around her waist. He pulled her to sit on his lap. Valerie moved slightly, trying to stand up. His hands held her waist pulling her closer to him.Valerie wanted to punch him but she couldn't. He seemed to have suspected that, because he held her hands with his left hand while holding her closely to himself with his right hand.Valerie groaned. How long was he going to kiss her even when she wasn't kissing him back?He bit her lips and then released her. Valerie stood up from his lap, nursing her bitten lips, while trying to catch her breath."That's your punishment," he mumbled with a smirk.Valerie was supposed

"But based on our agreement, he should be back before the week ends," Arden continued.Leonard nodded. "And Elder Vincent? What did he say about the mines?""Work is in progress. He would explain everything when he comes in."Leonard nodded and then turned to look at Valerie. She had finished eating and was now staring at her phone."Done eating?"Valerie nodded. "Yes, thank you.""Put on your veil," he told her. "Arden, bring the elders in. No guards this time." Arden nodded and headed for the door. Leonard called his name, and he stopped. "The meeting can go on without me." Arden left, and Leonard stood up. He moved closer to Valerie and stretched his hand."Come with me."Valerie stood up. "Are we going home already?""We are not. The meeting isn't over yet," Leonard answered. "I am taking you to get some fresh air.""Isn't that...""No more questions. Just come with me."He held Valerie's hand. "Fine," she mumbled.He took her through a different door, and soon they were outside

Leonard kept his promise. A few days after he spoke to Valerie about the investigation, he made her the Assistant to the Luna, and Diana became her maid.There was a little party to celebrate that, which surprised a lot of people. Valerie was surprised too; Leonard did not tell her that he was going to do that."Why did you do that?" She had asked him."To earn some respect from the people," Leonard answered. "Even if you're acting as an assistant to the Luna, you're still my Luna. I can't let anyone disrespect you."Valerie was thankful that Leonard thought about her."With this," Leonard continued. "Luella will be suspicious. She would want to know your stand in my heart."Valerie wasn't sure if Luella would think that way, but if she did, that would be a good thing for her.After the party, Valerie began her work officially as the Luna's Assistant. She had her office in the same building as Ariel; she told Leonard she wanted that, and he agreed.Valerie's first day at work was noth

"The painting and etiquette teachers can stay back. The rest of you should return."Two women stayed, and the rest bowed before leaving. After they left, Joanne went out with the etiquette teacher, leaving the painting teacher, and class began.She started by giving Valerie something to work on, to test her ability."You're already good, Luna," she said. "You only need a little supervision."Valerie smiled. "Thank you."They went on with their class, and soon it was time for a break. Joanne walked in with Sarah, who had a tray in her hand, and the etiquette teacher."How was class?" Joanne asked, after instructing Sarah to drop the tray on the table."It was awesome," Valerie answered with a smile.Valerie did not waste time eating. She was done in five minutes, rested for ten minutes, and etiquette class started.Valerie wasn't a fan of etiquette, so she found it boring. She wasn't a rude or disrespectful person, but she also didn't like being controlled.Valerie kept yawning while c
