MAYA’S POV “Can I have a word with you?” I asked Beta Kierra after walking up to her. I could have waited for her to be done on the training ground before walking up to her, but I didn’t think it was necessary. I woke up some minutes ago, and the minute I did, I just knew I had to have a word with Beta Kierra. She didn’t drop her sword, and it meant that she hadn’t given me an audience yet. I knew she didn’t like to be disturbed while training. I would apologize for doing that once she gave me an audience. “I’m sure whatever it is you want to talk about can wait. I have to train before the sun comes out,” she said to me. “It can’t wait, that’s why I’m here,” I replied. One thing about Beta Kierra, she had a soft spot for me. She barely said no to me, and I loved to use that advantage sometimes. I had a straight face on so she could tell me to go ahead. I didn’t intend to take so much of her time because I understood that she still had to train. Training was some werewo

MAYA’S POV Lycan Rasmus did help me in the past, and could it be that he was expecting me to return the favor by allowing him mark me as his mate? Bearing his mark automatically makes me the Luna of the pack. He helped me on the night I got attacked by the masked figure. He instructed Beta Kierra to help me train so my wolf could break out. Also, he helped me by keeping me in his mansion up till then. “I haven’t done anything for him. I can’t think of that one thing that I have done for him,” I told my wolf even though I didn’t know if she was listening. At times like this, I wished I had an active wolf. A wolf that I could have conversations with and also rub minds together in the middle of it. This was another reason why I needed to take training more seriously. I needed my wolf to break out. My plan was to focus on my wolf breaking out and not getting marked by Lycan Rasmus. I wouldn’t deny the fact that he was a good man, but I didn’t think I felt anything for him roma

MAYA’S POV “Day three of avoiding Lycan Rasmus,” I told my wolf who probably wasn’t listening as always. I looked sideways for the third time just to be sure Lycan Rasmus wasn’t coming. I walked down the hallway quietly and carefully with my heels raised and my weight on the balls of my feet. If I didn’t have somewhere important to be, I would have remained in my room. Today made it the fourth day of me not skipping training in the morning. I was determined to help my wolf break forth. Beta Kierra didn’t lie when she said I would learn faster if I trained myself and didn’t allow a coach to train me. I’ve had to learn and unlearn a lot of things ever since I took training more seriously than ever. I stepped into the compound, and the first thing I did was heave a deep sigh of relief. I didn’t have to tiptoe on my way to the training ground from here, and I also didn’t have to worry about Lycan Rasmus seeing me. He did train in the morning sometimes, but he didn’t make use

MAYA’S POV The last time I stepped out of my room was twenty-four hours ago. I was back to playing hide and seek, but this time, it was exhausting. I could only peep through the window, and it was no fun. Eventually, I might have to step out. I knew that. Spending the rest of my life in this room avoiding Lycan Rasmus didn’t sound like a good idea. Sooner or later, I would have to face him. I said no to him, but I still remained in his mansion. Very audacious of me. By now, he ought to have gone to bed. This might be the perfect time for me to go downstairs and head straight to the kitchen. The maids didn’t bring me lunch, and I understand that it might have slipped their minds. For some time now, I had been feeling the pangs of hunger, or I would have remained in the room. “He goes to bed before 9 p.m. every day, and it’s almost 10 p.m.,” I said to the wolf that I don’t have. I headed for the kitchen without hesitating. Some domestic workers walked past me. Not all of t

RASMUS’S POV If someone had told me a few months ago that I would willingly spend my evening lying on a blanket and staring at stars, I would have laughed in their face and maybe even called them a joker. I was Lycan Rasmus. I dealt with warriors, enemies, meetings, pack affairs, and so much more. I didn’t sit around admiring little lights in the sky, yet here I was, and the reason was lying beside me. Whoever guessed the reason to be Maya guessed right. She was excited to do this with me, and I knew it from the moment I brought it up. Who could have thought that stargazing would be her thing? “Thank you,” I said to Fred inwardly. “You’re welcome, but why are you thanking me?” “It was your idea,” I replied to him. “Yeah, I’m a hopeless romantic,” he jibed. I didn’t think it was a nice idea when he first told me about it, but now, I wished I had started planning it when he spoke to me about it. I slept on it for days because I just wasn’t feeling the idea. The cool
