Chapter 3

Aleena's POV

.

When we reached Alpha Daniel's packhouse, everyone over there was too good to be true. In short, they were no less than a saint.

There was a lot of love between the siblings and cousins.

And understanding and caring parents.

Not to forget, Aunt and Uncle as a second parents figure.

Knowing that Eva was Alpha Daniel's mate, everyone started treating her no less than a queen. While I looked out of the place but I remained calm, acting like I was happy for my sister, but deep down, I was thinking about how to take her place.

'Told you, no one beat you in the role of villain.', Leia taunted again. I wish I could just throw her out of my mind but then beat the shit out of it. But unfortunately, she was part of me. 'Yeah! Unfortunately for me too.'

I blocked her again so that I could rest in peace for a while.

"Alpha, where should I ask the others to keep the luggage of Luna?" Stephen, his Beta, asked Alpha.....wait I needed to say his name without using the word 'ALPHA' because mates never call each other by using the title.

I wanted to say NO, but then I knew that I didn't need to do anything because that idiot would do it for me because she wouldn't let me stay alone.

You see, that's the disadvantage of being thoughtful.

"Cut the formalities as for now, Stephen.", Daniel said in a casual tone. "Angel, you have met everyone personally but not my younger brother.", he added, walking toward his Beta and placing his hand around his shoulder. "He is not just my Beta but also the beta of the pack."

Huh! Beta, anything below Alpha, was nothing but an insect under my feet.

"Hello, Luna!" he greeted like a slave, bowing his head.

"Please call me, Eva."

"But that will mean disrespecting you. And I can't do that."

"Considering your point. Then you can call me by my name when we are with our family.", She suggested.

He nodded his head. "Okay, Eva!"

"That sounds better. And answering question to your previous question. No, Stephen. Please keep my luggage in the same room where Aleena's luggage will keep.", Eva said.

"But Eva, you should stay with your…." I acted with fake concern for her.

"Just because I find my mate, that doesn't mean I will leave you alone.", She said, cutting me in between.

And this was what I wanted.

"She won't be staying alone, Eva.", Nora, Daniel's sister, said. "Paige and I will be staying with her all the time, and I promise that we won't let her feel alone even for a while.", She added.

"Yes, we promise you that.", Paige, his cousin, said. "So, you can stay with our brother and spend quality time together."

"But.."

"Even your sister wants the same, don't you, Aleena?" Stephen, his brother, asked me for my final approval. Now could I say NO?

Nope! Otherwise, they would start thinking of me as a villain in my own sister's love story. Even though I was but I was not an idiot to expose myself on my own.

"Exactly. That is what I wanted her to explain, but then thanks to Moon Goddess that you all helped me." I expressed my happiness with a big smile.

Trust me! My mouth had started aching now by maintaining a continuous fake smile on my face.

"You sure about it?" Eva double-checked.

No.

"Absolutely."

"Okay! If you say so.", She mumbled.

"Stephen, you heard what my mate meant now."

"Yes, brother.", He responded, and mind linked someone to get this work done. "Now, you can enjoy your time with your mate while I will handle the pack duties for a few days."

"I have no idea what I will do without you.", Daniel said with a big smile on his face. "Thank you so much!"

"Yeah! Yeah! Now let go of me.", he said, shooing his brother away and leaving from there. This was the second time we met, not face to face, or we were introduced type, but he didn't even look at me and ignored me as if I did not exist.

That was strange.

'Maybe he's interested in looking at beautiful people inside and out instead of looking at the devil who had hidden her face under the mask of an angel.'

"Is Stephen always like this? I mean giving priority to work and always so formal?" Eva asked when that Beta left.

"Yep! Just don't mind him. He wasn't like this before, but after his mate's death, he had indulged himself in work so much that he barely spent time with us. Everyone misses the old him.", Daniel explained. "Please don't raise this topic in front of him because his mood takes 180 degrees whenever he hears about his dead mate."

"Oh, okay! But how did she die?"

"One of the hunter clans had some enmity with Daina, his mate's pack. So, they ended up genociding her whole pack." Eva slapped both hands on her mouth in surprise and shock. But I couldn't understand this, maybe because I had never endured the pain of losing a mate.

Hell, I didn't have one.

'And I will pray that we will never find one because I don't want to ruin the life of my precious mate.', Leia taunted again. God! Why did she has to keep popping in my mind again and again.

"Change that topic, kids.", Daniel's mother said to clear the air of this sad conversation. "By the way, Dan, since you are taking some time instead of rushing things, what is your plan for tonight?"

"Roman, my wolf wants to spend some time with Eva! That's why there is no planning from my end tonight."

"Ooooooo," Everyone hooted happily, hearing him, and I was no different. But deep down, I started planning to contact the vampires and get this bitch killed. Say it is my talent or superpower, but from an early age, I used to try to fool werewolves with their power of sensing the feelings, and by attending this age, I had become a PRO in this field.

'I call you actress for no reason.' I couldn't help myself from frowning at her.

*****

'Mom, there is work for you.'

'Tell me, sweetheart.'

'You need to send some humans to Silas and also promise him to send a dozen more, and in return, he had to kill that bitch.'

'Why don't you talk to him directly?'

'I would have done that, but I couldn't risk talking to him at this place where even the wall has ears. That's why I'm asking you. He is a vampire who can kill anyone for some fresh human blood. And also ask him to take some vampire friends with him because her mate will be with her all the time, but they don't have to hurt Daniel.'

'Okay! I will explain all the details to him clearly, but where at least update me on the place where Silas and his minions will have to attack! So that they can plan the things accordingly.'

'Borabora Hill.

(The name of the place is imaginary; if there is really someplace with this name, then consider it as a mere coincidence)

'Woah! That's a beautiful place in terms of scenery. Your dad had…'

'I'm not interested in listening to your love story. All I know is that Daniel is taking that bitch to that place as a date. And I want to ruin this date, so it will be better if you will stop speaking and start working.', Saying this, I closed the mind link.

****

It had been two hours since they had left the pack to enjoy their DATE, while here I was getting impatient with the thought of what would be happening there?

Did Silas reach there in time?

Did he kill that bitch?

I hope they wouldn't have hurt Daniel in this process because if they would have, then I would kill all those leeches with my own hand. I kept tossing on the bed from left to right and right to left, but sleep was far away from my eyes.

So, I just left the bed and walked out wearing the robe of my nightdress, which was ending till my mid-thigh. I even left the packhouse and reached into the garden near it.

I strolled around with the hope of some good news, but it looked like it was not coming anytime soon.

Damn it!

My patience was wearing out, and Silas was taking so much time to kill one single human. In the end, I couldn't help myself from asking about this incident from Silas itself. I dialed his number, but he didn't receive the call, and again and again, it used to take me to the voicemail. Then I opened Whats*App to text him, but before I would have texted him, I was bumped by a wall that came in front of me all of a sudden.

What the…

Someone else presence over there startled me, making me lose my balance, and I ended up falling to the ground.

"Ouch!" I hissed when my ass got hurt. I lifted my head and glared at the person who was the reason behind this accident.

"Hey Beta! Didn't you see where you were going? Because of you, I fell down on the ground.", I whispered and yelled at him while he just arched his eyebrow.

"I wish I could ask the same thing, but then I already know where you were looking at. So, if anyone is to blame for your condition is YOU. Not me."

"How dare you talk to me like that?", My temper rose, and I grabbed his feet and made him fall down too. Now, we both were on the ground. And now I didn't have to lift my head up to talk with him. 

"Did you just…"

"Yes. I did.", I said, cutting him in between. "And talk to me respectfully, Beta. Do you even know who I am? I'm the younger daughter of the Alpha Williams, and I'm an Alpha female."

"Excuse me?" he glared at me/"Do you think I have some omega or Beta's blood in my vein, huh? I, too, have Alpha blood in me, and I didn't respect you. It's not my problem if the truth hurts you like a bitch."

"You," I raised my hand to slap him, but he grabbed me, holding it tightly. "Careful powder puff!! Because I'm not some gentleman, if this hand knows how to protect, then it also knows how to break it.", Saying his, he jerked my hand away.

We both kept glaring at each other until we heard the loud growl of the wolves.

I knew the types of howls that werewolves used to howl in a different situations, and in this situation, it was serious.

I looked at the face of the Beta again. He was talking with someone through a mind link, and whatever it was, it was serious.

Did that bitch die?

I wondered and saw someone running toward the superhuman speed; thanks to my werewolf insight that, I could see that, but how the hell did the vampire get inside?

Was the howl related to it somehow?

The Beta quickly rose up on his feet and ran toward it, and that vampire stopped near the main door; my eyes widened in shock.

Because that vampire was no other than Eva.

And I forgot how to breathe when I saw an injured Daniel in her arms. I, too, raised to my feet and ran toward them with a lot of thoughts running in my mind.
