Serenity blinked her eyes, not understanding how to process that.
“You could come to see me when I am awake. Why are you sneaking around like a thief? Don’t tell me that you are doing something inappropriate to my body.” Serenity gasped.
The next instant she hugged her body. Her hazel eyes held accusations in them as she stared at the Alpha, moving back to increase the space between them.
“It is nothing like that. I am merely here to check up on you. I couldn’t gather time earlier,” Kieran coldly responded. The gentleness that tainted his eyes previously was not there anymore.
Serenity truly was about to throw a fit again about the attitude he showed when treating her.
“Is that so? I get it. You are an Alpha. There is a lot of things you are busy with all the time. Obviously, it is not that important comparatively to come visit me. I understand well.” Serenity’s tone was spiteful.
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
Serenity was inherently a lazy person to begin with. Because she was afraid of missing Kieran and being worried about everyone, she kept herself occupied with work for so long. Now that everything had come to a peace, the long hours of working as a doctor was a little too taxing for her soul.Serenity leaned against the couch and groaned. “Should I just quiet and go back with you to your pack? Anyways, you can afford to raise me,” Serenity suggested.Kieran, who was working on his laptop, did not look up and responded, “Were you not determined to stay here and develop your career like an independent woman? I support you. Don’t worry.”Serenity furrowed her brows. “I change my mind. Am I not allowed to do that? Working like these every day for long hours, I don’t even feel like living anymore. This is killing all my passion.”Amusement crossed through Kieran’s eyes as he turned his head to look at her after her dramatic words. “Is it that bad?”Serenity nodded her head.“I get you, Ser
Almost two weeks had passed since Kieran came here. Throughout this entire time, Serenity and Kieran had small fights with Serenity starting those most of the time and Kieran simply tolerating her temper. Other than that, they have been peaceful.Since Kieran was here now, fine and healthy, and everything was alright between them, Jane thought that she shouldn’t be overstaying her welcome. As she would only be getting in between the couple, she decided to return.Serenity felt guilty at that since her friend had come here for her sake, and she was not able to do anything. Jane only laughed at her emotions, calling her a fool and telling her that the best thing would be for her and Kieran to peacefully settle. The two of them had gone through a lot of things.That was what Serenity hoped for as well.As Serenity finished taking her shower at night, she smiled at Kieran who was busy in the kitchen. Never did she think that she would be able to domesticate such a mighty Alpha. A recent h
There was confusion in the Alpha’s eyes as he stared at his mate.“Serenity that… isn’t it too abrupt?”Serenity stared at him startled and scoffed. “What are you feeling shy for? You had no issue roaming topless in front of the entire pack before.”“Well, you are right.”As she watched him slowly take off his shirt, it felt as though she was harassing him, and spoke out, “Alpha, I only want to check up on your injuries. I heard from my brother that you are gravely hurt. That is it.”Hearing that, Kieran was about to put his shirt back. He said, “There is no need for you to do that? I am almost fine.”However, not giving him the chance to do that, she pulled away his shirt. Seeing how his upper body was covered with thick bandages, she could only imagine how bad his wounds might have been. There was a thick scar that ran across his shoulder that was yet to heal. Knowing how as the Alpha he had great healing powers, for these to take so much time, she could picture the life and death s
Serenity frowned when she noticed tha she received a call from an unknown number after midnight, but remembering how she told Kieran to have her brother call her, she received the call.“Serenity, you are still awake,” Richard softly said. His voice held a bit of guilt and fear in them.Serenity sneered. “Look who is alive. I hought you were dead by now given the silence from you.”“It is not that I have not been wanting to call you. It is just that I have been so busy every day that I keep putting it off. Look, now that the Alpha is no longer in the pack, all the responsibilities of the pack have fallen on my shoulder. I know you are my sensible little sister and understand my position, right?” Richard tried to get her to calm down.This only infuriated Serenity further. “Oh? Is that so? If you are crammed with so much important tasks, why did you have to call me now? Let me hang up. After all, I do not fall in those important categories, and therefore, I have no right to waste your
The lack of sleep caught up to Serenity, and she found herself dozing off during the work entire time today. Not even cups of bitter coffee could keep her awake and drive her headache away.When the day was over, Amelia, the nurse who proposed she went on a date yesterday with her nephew, caught up to Serenity and garbbed her arm. Although Serenity wanted nothing more than to go home and rest on her bed, she smiled and carrued on the conversation with Amelia.“By the way, are you hungry? Why don’t we go and grab a meal together?”Serenity replied, “I had little something to eat earlier. I am not hungry yet.”“I am sure you will feel hungry on the way there.”Serenity was about to turn her down when her eyes fell on Kieran who walked over to her. It seemed that he came to pick her up. He didn’t know when her shift today ends. Could it be that he was waiting for her the entire time?What a fool!He could have just asked her for the time.“And also my cousin will be there. You wouldn’t m
But Serenity was doomed to have a sleepless night. No matter how hard she tried, her thoughts were filled with Kieran, how he was standing outside, and what will happen in the future. Before she knew it, it was already time floor her to get to work. Instead of taking a day off, she decided to get to work, believing that would at least keep her thoughts occupied or else laying down on her bed, she will be consistently pestered by Kieran mentally.Last night, she resisted the urge to get to the balcony to check whether or not the man was standing outside multiple times, and after an arduous fights with her inner self, she managed to prevent herself from taking a glance.Looking at her state in front of the mirror, Serenity knew that she looked extra bad. One would think she went through a night of horror.Staring at the foundation in her hand, she commented, “This is what makeup is for.”There was no way she was letting anyone know how restless she was last night.After Serenity was don
Staring at the familiar an in front of her, Serenity felt baffled. Jane noticed the tension between both of them and decided to give them space by getting up to Serenity’s apartment.Serenity quickly brought her emotions in control and put on a mask of nonchalance to match the Alpha’s. She took a second to observe his features. He cleaned up his wild hair considerably, taking a neat appearance, but instead of that making him seem gentler, he somehow appeared to be equally oppressive.“What are you doing here, Alpha? What a surprise!” Serenity expressed. Sarcasm evident in her voice.“I am here for you, Serenity. Are you going to accept me?” Kieran stated. Instead of it being a pleading request, there was a domineering pressure behind his words.The corner of Serenity’s eyes curved up, and there was a twinkle in those hazel eyes. “I am afraid you are a little late. I already went on a date with someone today, and we hit it off rely well. I don’t think it would be right of me to accept
After being done with the day’s work, Serenity removed her doctor’s coat and packed her bag. Just as she was about to step out of her office, her phone suddenly rang up. She reached for her phone to find out that it was her best friend ‘Jane’ calling and a soft smile formed on her face.She received the call.“Where are you, Serenity? I have been looking for you at the airport for so long, and I can’t see any signs of you. Where are you?” Jane stated, her voice filled with dissatisfaction.Serenity looked at her watch and frowned. “You are already here? I thought that there was still an hour left.”“Serenity, are you kidding me!? Don’t tell me you forgot the time? What a friend you are!” There was obvious sarcasm in her voice.“I am sorry. There was too much things on my schedule today, and I forgot. Come on, forgive me. I will take you on a shopping spree, and all the money will be on me. I will be there in an half an hour. I promise. I will drive fast.” Serenity rushed out of her of
Serenity waved her hand at the little girl who walked out of her office with a bright grin, guided by her mother. Once the door was closed, Serenity stretched her arms out of exhaustion before extending her hand and taking a sip out of the coffee cup in front of her. The hot cappuccino inside it had become long cold.Serenity’s eyes then fell on the calendar in front of her, and a frown fell on her features as she leaned closer to the calendar. She took out a pen and circled today’s date.“It’s already one moth.” A sigh left her mouth. After that, she raised her voice, feeling the anger rise within her veins. “I knew that I should not have trusted that bastard! ‘Wait for me for a month’. Well, I have waited. Where are you now? What am I? Some kind of pushover? I am not going to wait for you anymore, you mean bastard!”It has been a month since she had received any kinds of news from the pack. She asked everyone around her for a piece of reliable update, but the information was all sca
