Staring at the undesirable vegetables on her plate, Serenity picked them one by one with the fork and placed them on Kieran’s plate. The Alpha, by now, formed the habit of eating everything Serenity put on his plate, treating this as something normal. Being exposed so much unusual scenes these days, the pack members started to become numb as well.
Then, her eyes lingered on the pudding beside Kieran’s plate greedily, and she stated, “Alpha, if you are not eating that pudding, can I have it?”
Before Kieran could reply, she snatched the pudding and dug into it. Kieran stared at her helplessly and said, “You can ask the kitchen staff for more if you want to, but you shouldn’t indulge too much into it.”
Serenity smiled. “Is that so? I thought food other than meal times wasn’t available in the pack? Isn’t it wrong for you to bend the rules due to me?”
Richard didn’t know how the Alpha tole
Serenity hugged the pillow in her hand. Her eyes glared at the door, filled with grievances. Because the man invited her to sleep with him, she took extra steps to pretty herself up, but in the end, he betrayed her hopes by deciding to work late in his office. All her previous nervousness turned to anger.She decided to give herself five more minutes before she barged into her mate’s office to create a scene.As if her thoughts were conveyed to him telepathically, the door to the room opened, and Kieran walked in. Serenity scoffed. “Oh, you are here. I thought you were planning to spend the night tonight in your office.”The Alpha arched one of his eyebrows. “You were waiting?”“Don’t be ridiculous. I sleep very lightly. I am simply afraid of you ruining my sleep. Once my sleep is interrupted, it is hard for me to fall back to sleep again.” Serenity made up a convincing excuse.Kieran solemnly respond
Serenity stayed in the kitchen for a while, and with the help of the cooks there, she made a few snacks Ashley might enjoy during her pregnancy. After everyone got to learn about Ashley’s condition, they were all equally happy and willing to contribute. Once Serenity was done packaging the snacks, she planned to go over at Ashley’s house and check up on her on the way.She hummed a soft tone as she made her way over to the house when she came to face with a disturbing sight.Ashley’s mate grabbed her by her hair as he pulled her out of the door. While tears ran down the poor woman’s face, rage was written all over the man’s expression. He threw her violently on the floor.“You, whore! Get out of my house! I don’t know whose child you are pregnant with! You expect me to be the father of your bastard! You dirty bitch! Get lost with your dirty child before I kill you off.”Ashley begged. “No, dear, what are you talking about? This is our child. I didn’t chea
It could be seen that the Alpha’s words incurred dissatisfaction from many of the pack members. Although werewolves were murderous creatures, they were protective of their pack members. Even though Serenity was the Alpha’s mate, their bias against humans existed, and they couldn’t accept her meddlesome behavior.Voices of objections were raised.“Pardon me, Alpha. I believe that the Luna is at fault for interfering.”“Yes, family matters should be left to be dealt with themselves. She suggested the breakdown of something as holy as the mate bond. This is clearly blasphemy. It makes sense he would get a little aggressive.”“And Ashley’s behavior has always been strange. It is fine for her mate to be doubtful. The Luna doesn’t understand because she is a human, but the werewolves are naturally possessive of their mate.”If Kieran was not here, Serenity would have folded her sleeves and
“There was nothing wrong in what I said. Since the entire pack is resistant to this idea, it would be better for them to learn that there is an alternative route. Those like Ashley can step out to seek for help as well. If we keep on doing it in private, barely a difference will be made. And it is not as though this matter is something to be ashamed of. The abuser is the one who should be humiliated.” Serenity held her ground with resolution.“I can’t actually guess whether you are ridiculously dumb or actually smart,” Kieran uttered in frustration. “Usually, you can come out with sly plans, but when you need to act with caution, it seems that skull of yours is empty.”This fucking bastard.Serenity took in a deep breath. “I understand what you mean, but I am not wrong either. You see, I can’t stand the bastards who abuse the weak, and I think for something like this I need to make a strong point. And I wasn&
Kieran had been busy these couple days. Serenity also knew that she had to sit in her infirmary as well after taking break from her work for all these days. These dyas, she noticed the strange eyes she received, but that did not bother her. Those who were close to her weerre willing to talk to her although few of them did not agree with her point of view.According to Kieran, Ashley’s mate will be punished to match his crime, and although Serenity was curious as to what the consequences would be, one look from Kieran was enough for her to get that she was better off not knowing. Even though she had been exposed to Kieran taking lives in front of her eyes, she was still too delicate to bear the brutality of the werewolf society here.From what she had heard from her mate and everyone around, many expressed their dissatisfactions. Because of that, Kieran had issues to deal with.The infirmary was relatively calm today. Leaning against her chair, as the fresh breez
Confusion crossed through Kieran’s worried expression when he noticed the mess in the room. What was more astonishing than that was Serenity packing her bag.Serenity’s silence as she continued to pack her back prompted him to ask again, “What’s the matter? Did you hear anything upsetting?”Seeing how she did not bother to spare him a glance made Kieran take a step forward and grab on to her arm, pulling her attention towards his direction. That’s when her reddened, sharp gaze fell into his eyes. Serenity was trying her best to hold back the tears.“What happened, Serenity? You are making me worried,” Kieran softly said.“You are a bastard. A lying bastard. A deceitful bastard. I don’t want to stay with you any longer. Was it fun to watch me make fool of myself? I hate you,” Serenity poured out her complaints.Kieran furrowed his brows. “Why will I do that?”&ldquo
Kieran’s gloomy eyes stared at his Beta, but Richard remained determined.“I will not let that happen,” Kieran uttered.As the air grew tense, Richard decided to change the topic. “However, since the Commander is not bothering to hide anymore and directly attacked Serenity, this shows that he is planning to take actions soon.”Kieran nodded.The werewolf council had gotten significantly strong over the years. Unlike how the werewolves acted lawlessly and ruthlessly previously, now even if they injured anyone, that needed to be reported, and a proper reason had to be provided for it. An Alpha was not allowed to indiscriminately hurt a member of his pack.Kieran’s pack was strong enough to resist the council, but this will leave a huge damage to the pack. And it will only incur more wraths from nearby packs. The pack has finally gained peace after so many years. He could not destroy it.Although Kieran was aware of the Commander’s sinister intentions, he had no proofs to back him up, an
The entire night, Serenity was unable to fall asleep out of all the pent up frustration within her. At around three in the night, Serenity believed that Kieran would be out of consciousness. Given how cautious the man was, she removed the cover from above her body and tiptoed over to the door.Just as she was about to unlock the door, she felt a presence behind her. The next instant, a hand slammed on the door, trapping her between the string body and the door. Serenity clenched her hand into a tight fist.“Where do you think you are going?” questioned the deep voice.“You very well know where I am going Alpha. I am planning to escape from here,” Serenity replied.“Go to bed, Serenity. We will discuss about this later,” the Alpha ordered.Serenity turned her head to fiercely glare at the Alpha. “Just what do you think you can achieve by locking me here, Kieran? One day, you will have to eventually release me. This can’t be anything permanent. You can’t be foolish to think that anything
Serenity was choosing clothes for herself when the men’s section fell into her eyes, and the corner of her eyes curved up. The hazel eyes glistened with playfulness as they stared at the Alpha. Seeing how Serenity was staring at him from head to toe, Kieran felt the feeling of being looked at by a predator, and he shook his head at the ridiculous idea.As Kieran raised one of his eyebrows questioningly, Serenity generously replied, “Alpha, I noticed that your closet is pretty monotonous. Why don’t I buy some clothes for you as appreciation?”Kieran was quick to reject the idea. “There is no need for that.”“Come on, Alpha. Your pack pays me a hefty salary, and I saved a lot during my time in the pack. I can spend a little on you.”Before Kieran was able to turn her down again, she grabbed his hand and pulled him along.Staring at the vibrant expression on his mate’s face, Kieran sighed and decid
Kieran did not immediately start the story. The two of them reached on the peak of one of the smaller mountains. The darkness in the sky started to fade away slightly, showing the signs of emerging dusk. Both of them found a stone to sit down upon. Serenity raised her head to stare at the sky, finding a sense of tranquility in it.“When my mother was out of the pack for business, she found her mate, my father. He was a human and did not know anything about the werewolves. He was happily in a relationship with his lover. My mother learns of this and was angered. She was a very possessive and proud wolf. She then told my father about everything, and her determination was only treated by him as absurdity.He declined no matter how many times she asked, and in the end, she forcefully kidnapped to the pack. And when he was unwilling to bow his head after that, she threatened him with the life of his lover. He got married to her, and I was born. She was very controllin
After leaving her in the room, Kieran turned his back on her, about to stride off when Serenity grabbed on to his wrist, stopping him. Raising one of his brows questioningly, he looked at her.“You are behaving quite oddly, Alpha. Is there anything going through your head?” Serenity voiced out her doubt.“It is a misunderstanding. Stay in this room until I get back. No matter how curious you get, don’t roam around. Also lock the doors and windows. Do not open it for anyone other than me,” Kieran instructed.Serenity released him and folded her arms over her chest. Then, bulging her cheeks, she stated, “You do not need to tell me all of that. I am not a child.”Thorn, furrowing her brows, she asked, “We will be sharing a room?”“In the eyes of the members of this pack, we are mates, and it would be better for you to show that we are a harmonious couple.”In their eyes?S
When the car stopped at the destination, Serenity woke up from the nap. A yawn left her mouth as she opened her eyes. She followed Kieran out of the car in a daze and found herself in front of another pack. The pack’s Alpha followed by few other members came out to greet the Alpha, and the Alpha exchanged a few words with them.Serenity had her head lowered, trying to fight off the sleepiness that was bugging her when she heard herself being addressed.“Is that the Luna? She is as beautiful as I heard,” expressed a friendly voice.Raising her head, Serenity saw that a younger male was smiling widely at her. Her questioning eyes made hum introduce him. “I am the Alpha’s son, Nathan. Nice to meet you, Luna.”Serenity nodded. “A pleasure indeed.”Kieran placed his hand around her shoulder and pulled her closer to him. Startled by his action, she raised one of her eyebrows at him. His low voice then fell
Enthusiasm was shown on the warrior wolves face after Serenity’s words. They have recently observed how distant and cold Serenity and Kieran had been. This in turn caused the Alpha to treat them worse. If bringing Serenity can ease the Alpha’s mood, they were willing to do anything for it.“That is great, Luna.”“Luna, you can take the car with the Alpha. We will follow along.”“Yeah, don’t worry. We will put in our best effort to protect you, Luna.”“We will not let a scratch come on you.”Confusion read on Serenity’s face.Were these the stoic members of Kieran’s face?What was up with those bright and hopeful eyes?Did they not think bringing her along would lower the efficiency of the task?Although Serenity was curious, she knew that it would not be appropriate for her to ask them now. Therefore, she nodded her head.Her eyes then f
Serenity’s eyes widened in alarm when Richard grabbed her hand and pulled her away in another direction. Unable to keep up with the pace, her feet dragged on the ground, leaving marks on the soil. There was visible pity in the eyes of those who saw her, and those who knew how she irritated the Beta the entire while shook their head.Serenity kept on incessantly interrupting the conversations Richard had with anyone whether with her small talks or obnoxious laughter’s.When Richard finally stopped and released her, Serenity raised her eyes to glare at her brother viciously. Her cheeks puffed up. “How can you drag me like that? No matter what, I am a delicate lady.”Richard sneered. “You are a delicate lady and a strong woman at your convenience. I can’t bear to take care of someone as great as you anymore. I rather pass off this task to someone who is more suitable.”“Pass me off to someone else?” Seren
Faced with the dressed up Serenity so early in the morning, Richard wondered she was up to. The bright smile on her face gave rise to bad feelings within him. He wanted to walk away from here, ignoring her, but her presence was too obvious for him to do so.“What do you want to do?” Richard asked with a frown.“Can you not look so grim? It bores me. Obviously, I am following you out,” Serenity expressed in a mtter of fact tone.Richard turned her down immediately. “Stay inside. Don’t cause trouble by going outside. I already have a lot of tasks to do.”“Obviously, I am not going to disturb you. I will follow you quietly, very quietly. You wouldn’t know that I am even here. And as a patient, staying all the time inside is not good for my health. Only by getting the fresh air outside can I recover better,” Serenity vocalized convincingly.“I think you will recover just fine by staying
Because of her wounded shoulder, Serenity could not lift her arms well and do much tasks. Richard was responsible for preparing the meals. Serenity sat on the table, swinging her kegs as she imoatiently waited for her brother to bring the food.“Hurry up, Richard! I am going tp starve to death at this rate!” Serenity shouted.Richard shot his younger sister a look of dissatisfaction. Ever since the day she learned that she was his younger sister, it seemed that she had lost all of her reservatiom and respect towards him. It was common for her to raise her voice towards him and order him around. She often made trouble for him as if taking revenge for hiding his identity.Then, the corner of his lips curled up to a smile. Richard expressed, “The pace of my cooking depends on my mood. If I end up feeling upset, it might take you a week to receive the meal.”Not about to lose to him, Serenity arched up her eyebrow. There was a mischevi
After a long time of waiting and trying, Serenity was finally able to get in comtect with her friend, Jane. The entire time her phone was out of service, and this made Serenity feel concerned.“Serenity, how are you doing? I jheard that you got really badly hurt. I am sorry. I should have warned you about it before,” Jane’s loud voice came from other side of the phone, laced with pure concern and panic.Serenity chuckled. “I still have hard time moving my shoulder, but other than that, I am fine. You should have seen how coolly I handled those werewolves. They should not be labeling me as a weak human anymore.”“It’s not you if you don’t joke about it,” Jane commented.“Is there any use of being so serious about it? Although it hurts, what matters is that I survived. What has been going on with you for so long? Are you doing fine? What about the pack? Did you all get hurt?” Serenity inquire
