Naomi's POVInstead of being happy that Alpha Baron finally decided to leave for his pack, I had a mixed feeling which I couldn't lay my hands on but happiness was not a part of it.It was now two hours after his departure, yet, I was still sitting on the bed he was lying on earlier with my head buried in my palm.If only he had said what the issue was, I wouldn't have been this bothered but he didn't and even when I attempted to ask father, I had to restrict myself from doing so.“Ugh! You made me go in circles. Why aren't you picking your calls? Thanks to the maid that told me you haven't left here.” Cassie rapped, falling on the spot beside me.“Do you by any chance know why he left? I think it was because of how I had treated him. Albert told me he spoke to father before he left.” Holding her hands, I leaned towards her and with a watery eye I said, “I’m scared Cassie.”“Scared of what?” she asked with a raised brow.“If father gets to hear everything that has happened, he would b
Naomi's POVAfter the meeting ceremony, I was sitting on a table all by myself when Christina walked up to me with a smile on her face.“I was thinking I wasn't going to see you again.” She groaned, giving my hand a squeeze.“Me too.” I replied with a little smile. Even though I had promised to meet with Alpha Baron to compensate for my rude behavior towards him, I didn't mean it.Christina here was my friend from childhood and even though we haven't seen each other for a while now, we were still friends.“When are you living? You will be staying for the rest of the week right?” She asked and at once I began to shake my head. The last thing I was going to do was spend one more day in Raven Pack.Alpha Baron was surely going to come looking for me and I didn't want that to happen. I was supposed to sit with my father on the podium but I decided to sit in the congregation because I didn't want to see him.Christina and I began talking to pass time, pending when the ceremony was going to
Naomi's POV“Raven.” I called, staring back at her with a shock filled face. She was the last person I was expecting to see.“It seems you are surprised to see me. I didn't get killed like you had intended.” She said with a smirk, her hands wrapped across her chest as she gave me a menacing gaze.“That wasn't my intention, I did it to save her.” I yelled back at her, my eyes watering as the scene began to replay in my head.A while ago, I had this gut feeling that she was the one being mated to Alpha Baron but because I couldn't get a full glimpse of her face, I thought otherwise.“But she died, I got the result of my experiment, right?” She was still smiling now as she stared back at me with a smirk on her lips. It was as if I was going to pass out the next minute.Thankfully, there was a wall nearby which I immediately reached out to, grasping it as if my whole life depended on it.“Don't worry, we won't have any issues if you return to your pack and never show your face here again.
Naomi's POVWith the look Alpha Baron was giving me, I didn't need anyone to tell me that he didn't know who his so-called Luna was.Standing here and staring back at him made my anger boil and I had to hold my hands by my side to avoid bashing his face.From the little fragments I could remember, he didn't spend his childhood in the pack, he was in the human world and had only returned when his father was at the verge of death.Even at that, he ought to have done a background check on the woman he decided to get mated with. The more I thought about this, the angrier I became and soon I was seething.“I understand that you are disappointed with me. I understand every single emotion you are showing right now but trust me, this is just for a little while.” Leaning close now, he grabbed my shoulders, making me stare back into his eyes.“Believe me, I'm going to reject her once you have made up your mind to be by my side.” He mused, using his forehead to rub mine.Pressing my hands agains
Alpha Baron's POVIt was two days now, two days after I got mated with Raven from the Crestwood Pack.Each time I thought about this, I would be overwhelmed with anger but there was nothing I could do about it.Adding to my list of frustration was Naomi's unfinished story. I had thought of reaching her on her phone but I knew she wasn't going to pick my calls. I even attempted traveling to Dragonwood pack but I knew it was going to be the same outcome and so I gave up trying.Now leaning against my chair in my office, I was biting my lower lips, my eyes shut as different scenes played out in my head.For a moment, I imagined Raven to be a vampire, the next minute, a demon and the next something like a monster with several horns.“Dammit!” I scoffed, snapping my eyes open only to veer backwards in shock.Right in front of me was Raven, leaning on the table with a bright smile on her face. I sincerely didn't have any idea of her presence up until now and it was driving me crazy.“When d
Naomi's POVAfter my discussion with Cassie that morning, I wasn't myself. I was pacing the length and breath of my room, trying to analyze my decision in my head.“Avenging Vanessa and saving Christiana.” I said aloud, digging my hands into my head and tugging my hair.Those were the only reasons I could consider if I was going to return to the Raven Claw Pack. Alpha Baron's throne was the least of my problems.Thinking about this, gave me a sleepless night that I soon found myself becoming a shadow of myself.Cassie on her part wasn't even helping matters. She kept on pumping into me, reasons why I should return to the pack.It was frustrating and it was as if I was going to lose my sanity the next second.After dinner, a day after the mating ceremony between Alpha Baron and Raven, I found myself in my father's office.If asked, I had no idea how I came here but since I was here now, I have to speak up.“You don't look good.” Father said, staring intently at me.“I'm fine.” I replie
Naomi's POVThe more time I stood there, staring at Raven who was smiling like a maniac, the more angry I became. At this point, I felt like lunging at her and ripping her heart out of her chest with one strike.Right now, Vanessa's face was spiraling all over my head, making me grab the hem as my gown as I dug my fingers into my palm.There was no way I could explain what was going on right now and it irked me to the barest minimum.“Are you alright?” Raven asked, trying to touch me but I flinched, avoiding her like she was a plague.“Your official visitor from Dragonwood pack doesn't want to have anything to do with me. Seems like she hated me already when we hadn't even talked.” She muttered.“Wench!” I said in my head, glaring angrily at her.“Can we just wrap it up now?” Alpha Baron asked, his voice low. It was as if he was going to burst into tears the next minute.“Are we still going for a drink?” She asked.“Just me and her. She has to deliver her message quickly.” he replied
Alpha Baron's POVAfter listening to Naomi's tale, I had been trying not to believe her but I found myself doing so.I didn't want to believe her, not for any other reason but because Raven was my Luna and her presence here was nothing but a threat if her take turned out to be true.“Your highness, you need to grab some bites of these delicious cookies I made.” Raven said, cutting into my trail of thoughts.“I made a lot of them thinking that our guest would join in sharing with us but she seemed to be in a hurry.” She muttered.Setting the cup of coffee she had made before me, she said, “Did you two have a fight?” She asked but I didn't give her a response.Her smile and demeanor was in contrast to how someone who was capable of burying someone alive would.“She would make a good actress.” I muttered.“Really? And my father said I have poor acting skills. Thanks for believing in me.” She rapped, holding my hands but it quickly pulled away.To prevent further questions, I picked up my
