"You should really learn to control your emotions," Nicolas nudged my ankle. I hissed as I nodded.

"Get back to work." I ordered the guards who were still staring at me. I was really irritated right now. That bastard Chad just came to spoil my day.

"Leigh!" Miss Felice called out to me and I fixed my face immediately.

"Yes?" I turned to face her.

"My dear boy, everything is in place for the ball, the servants are already at work." she informed. "Do you have any other orders?"

"None for now. Thank you." I smiled and she patted my head softly.

I went ahead to check if everything was perfect and ready. Father had called me yesterday and talked about how he wanted everything to be perfect. This ball was my idea so I really didn't appreciate him meddling.

"Ahh! Watch it." One of the guards yelled and it caught my attention. I walked over to see two guards arguing.

"What's the matter?" I asked him.

"He's being unreasonable. He hit me with the stuff he's carrying and won't apologize." The fi

    As I stepped into the entrance of grand ballroom alongside Nicolas, I couldn't help but feel a sense of confidence and poise."Welcome Master Leigh and Master Chad." The guards at the door greeted politely and I gave a subtle nod."Ready?" Nicolas asked with a smirk and I breathed in before nodding in affirmative.Just as we were about to make our entrance, my phone buzzed with a text from my security team leader, "All ready!"I glanced over at Nicolas and gave a subtle nod, acknowledging the message. We swept into the ballroom together, and all eyes turned to us. I felt a flutter of attention, but my gaze quickly scanned the room, searching for one person in particular.And then, I saw her, Iris, standing across the room, looking breathtakingly beautiful. My heart skipped a beat as our eyes met, and for a moment, everything else faded into the background. I felt a jolt of electricity run through me. I felt like walking towards her in this moment and grabbing her in front of everyone,

    I was standing on the side, feeling like absolute crap. My dad didn't even look at me, like I was invisible. Everyone was excited, chatting and laughing, but I just wanted to disappear. The music starts, and the alphas begin asking their omegas to dance. Couples were spinning around the dance floor, smiling and giggling.But I didn't feel like smiling. I don't want to dance, I just want to go back to my room. Or anywhere other than here. I moved uncomfortably and I was trying to blend into the background, hoping no one will notice me.But then, Eleanor approached me, a bright smile on her face. "Hey, want to dance?" she asks, like she doesn't know I'm dying inside. I'm irritated, annoyed that she's interrupting my misery.I don't want to dance. I don't want to pretend to be happy. I want to be left alone."I'd rather not." I said curtly as I looked the other way. She neared me and whispered into my ears."Dance with me and I would give you a present." I looked back at her with curiosi

    The wind was surprisingly calming, and my nerves were a lot more stable. I watched from the balcony, as some couples snuck into the garden and stole kisses. Giggling like children as they looked around if anyone had seen them.They couldn't see me, but I could see them so clearly from up here. Suddenly, I missed Iris. I wished she were here. I wished I could hold her like the couples down dare and not give a damn. It seemed like the moon goddess had heard my secret pleas and answered my prayers, because I could suddenly smell her. Or maybe it was all in my head. I was probably hallucinating. Then, the door behind me creaked open."Leigh!" She called out my name and I turned around to face her. My heart beating loudly in my chest. The moon goddess really did answer my prayers. Her smell was so aromatic and inviting that I wanted to hold her, but I contained myself. She probably wouldn't like that. I have been too hot headed with her, and she probably despised me. So I stayed put and di

    I trudged through the hallway, my feet heavy with heartache. I felt like I had been punched in the gut, my breath knocked out of me. Iris, the one person I thought understood me, and would pull me out of this despair, had willingly walked away with Chad. I thought our kiss had meant something. I wasn't going to let her go, but she let go of my hands instead and chose his.The pain of betrayal stung, leaving me feeling alone and vulnerable.As I turned a corner, I collided with Eleanor, who was standing in the hallway, a sly smile etched on her face."Hey, Leigh. I see you have been busy." She hummed as she spoke.I tried to brush past her because I was not in the mood for her shenanigans, but Eleanor caught my arm. "Talk to me, Leigh. Don't ignore me." She sneered and I could see her fangs.My phone chimed and I received a text from Nicolas.-We might get something tonight. I'll call you if we need you-I heaved a breath of relief as I read the text. At least something was going right

    I groggily opened my eyes, only to be met with a piercing warn light that seeped through the curtains like a relentless intruder. I winced, covering my eyes with my palms."Ugh!" My head was throbbing uncontrollably, a relentless drumbeat that echoed through my skull and it was killing me. I tried to recall the events of the previous night, but my mind was a complete blank slate. What was I even doing yesterday? I couldn't recall a thing.As I shifted slightly, I noticed a figure on the bed beside me. My heart skipped a beat as I turned to face the stranger, only to be met with a familiar yet unexpected face. Eleanor's.We were both naked, our bodies entwined in a way that spoke of an intimacy I couldn't remember.Panic set in as my mind raced to fill in the gaps. How did we end up like this? What happened last night? I scrambled to piece together the fragmented memories, but they remained elusive. I just couldn't recall. Nothing would ever make me want to end up in this position with

    "I cannot believe that you of all people could be so irresponsible." He sneered angrily at me.I blinked confused. Why the hell was he yelling at me?"What are you on about? I don't follow." I said confused."Seriously Leigh?" He glared at me. "Where the hell were you yesterday? I ringed you multiple times but you didn't pick up," he was obviously frustrated. "We needed your help but you weren't there. So please explain to me where the fuck you were?" He thundered and my memories came flooding back."Did you catch the culprit?" I asked immediately and he shot daggers at me with his eyes."No Leigh, we didn't. Because you bailed on us and now everything is a total mess." He half yelled when his eyes suddenly darted into the room. Eleanor had made a noise that caught his attention. He looked at her in utmost shock and he looked back at me. His eyes grew colder and I could see obvious disappointment in his eyes."Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt your serious discussion." She chuckled."

    I walked out with an unclear plan in my mind. Luckily, Nicolas came with me but he still wasn't speaking to me. I needed to see the crime scene to get a feel of what had transpired. I still cannot believe that something like that happened right in our household. A lot of powerful Pack masters were present, including Luka Lane. So what kind of strength did this criminals have? Who were they anyway and what the hell did they want?"Did you get to see their faces?" I asked Nicolas and he snubbed me. I stopped in my steps but he kept walking ahead as if I was invincible right now."Nicolas, are you really going to ignore me?" I said pained. He stopped and turned back to look at me."You did a really shitty thing Leigh. And with Eleanor too. What about Iris? Did you forget about her?" He seemed more pissed now than he was before."This thing with Eleanor was a big mistake. You know I would never.....""But you did anyway. I'm so disappointed. He scorned. He sighed as he ran his fingers acr

    I placed a call to Dr Eli immediately. He was the only one I could talk to at the moment."Hello!" He said as he picked up."Dr Eli, I'm sure you must have heard the news already." I said immediately I heard his voice. "Can you tell me your opinion about this."He went quiet for a while. He seemed like he too was at a loss of words."Honestly," he began. "I have never imagined that they could be other S ranked Alphas who managed to skip the secondary gender evaluation. I'm not saying it's impossible to do that, but how could a whole army of them have skipped the evaluation and for what reason? I'm actually quite confused." He said with stress obvious in his voice.I had watched the CCTV footage from last night, and just like Nicolas had confirmed, they did have the fighting prowess of an S ranked Alpha, and to make it all worse, they had drugged the guests, meaning that there was an insider too. Gosh, all these was so frustrating to think about."So what you are saying now is that the

    I floated in a void and it was hard to breathe. I struggled till I finally found my balance. "Here again?" I muttered to myself as I walked the familiar path and was met with the same woman that has been appearing in my dreams almost every night.I still couldn't understand what she was saying, but I knew it was something very important."Remember!" She whispered before a whirlwind blew me away and I woke up abruptly, panting heavily.I looked around and I found myself in the comfort of my own room. I sighed as I sat up and rubbed my eyelids with my palms. I tried to move, but I hissed in pain as I was still sore from last night's activity in the garden.I felt drained and tired, with my body still humming from the memories of last night's passion with Leigh. The sunlight streaming from the window seemed too bright, that I winced as I turned to look the other way. I stretched, yawned, and swung my legs over the side of the bed, with my feet dangling in the air.I went to the bathroom

    It was probably 10pm or something. I wasn't exactly sure because I drifted off to sleep after Anne tucked me in and I hadn't gotten up since then. The vibration of my phone woke me up."Ugh," I sighed as my head began to throb. I reached for my phone and saw an incoming call from Leigh. Immediately, I sat up before picking up."Hello." I said carefully."Iris." He said in the calmest of voice and my previous anger and dissatisfaction with him watched away as if it was never there."Can we meet up?" He asked."Now?," I glanced over at Anne's side and she was tucked in with her earpods in, probably watching a movie. "Okay." I said as I climbed out of bed.My movement alerted Anne as she turned her attention to me. "Going somewhere?" She asked taking one bud out of her ear."Yeah. I'll be back shortly." I smiled as I put on something simple but nice. I headed to his mother's garden. He didn't have to tell me that that's where he'd be before I could go, because I could probably read his

    I haven't seen or heard from Leigh all day. I was really worried and unhappy about this. I would be going back home tomorrow, so I had hoped I would be able to at least speak with him today. I sighed as I made my way back to my room. Since he isn't picking up his call, I should probably go finish packing up and sleep for a while. I headed down the corridor when someone pulled my arms to the side. Shocked and alarmed, I turned back with my fist in the air, it could be another attack, but I was surprised to see Miss Clarisse."You..!" I said shocked. "What do you want?"Her eyes scanned me as she stared as my fist. "Oh, sorry, I thought it was someone bad." I laughed awkwardly as I dropped my hands and stood properly.She just stared at me without saying anything which greatly surprised me. "Uh, do you need anything?" I asked just in case, but she was awfully quiet, but the next thing she did greatly shocked me. She started sniffing me."Hey!" I pushed her off as she grabbed my arms ho

    Who could this important guest be? I started on my way and followed the other servants to the entrance, curiosity got the better of me. Who was this important guest that had everyone scrambling?Upon arrival, we formed two precise single file lines, with guards at the front and Miss Felice leading the way."Who is the guest?" I asked the girl besides me."I don't know exactly, I just followed the others here. But it seems like someone important." She said."By the look of things, this guest would probably stay here since we have been asked to come welcome them." The other one by my side whispered."Yeah, true. This was also how we welcomed that snake Miss Eleanor." One said."Hey, don't call her that." I shot at her.She hissed in displeasure. "I can say what I want. And stop acting so noble." She spat.I turned from her because it was clear she only wanted trouble."Is it male or female? I just want to know." Another whispered and thus the gossips started."What if it's a woman? May

    I felt myself floating in an endless void, I felt disoriented and I didn't know what I was doing here, or how I got to this place. My feet landed on the ground and my footing balanced."Hello?" I called out looking around, but my voice echoed back.I moved forward, searching for a reference point, but there was nothing, only emptiness. Suddenly, a figure materialized in the distance. A woman stood at the center, with her back to me."Excuse me," I said, approaching her. "Where am I?"She didn't turn it speak to me, but just stood with her back to me.I paused before going forward. "Sorry to bother you, I just want to know where I am. I am lost." I said to her while still approaching her.The woman turned to me suddenly. Our eyes met and familiarity struck me instantly, but I knew we had never met before."Who are you?" I asked as I was having this strange feeling.In a flash, the woman stood inches from me, but I could swear she was standing far away a few seconds ago.Her skin trans

    Finally, me and the girls were done. It was a total mess in here. I couldn't help but wonder what sort of grown adult would mess with books and leave them scattered everywhere."I'm hungry, let's go find something to eat." One of the girls suggested and the other supported with a nod."I'll go handle something first before joining you guys." I said and they made fun of me thinking I was going back to talk to Leigh, but I was actually going back to find Miss Felice.I stepped out of the library, with my resignation letter clutched in my hand. I took a deep breath, steeling myself for the conversation ahead. I did tell her that I had nothing to say before, but now, Leigh thinks it's a good idea to stop working here.I headed straight to her office, hopefully she was in. I knocked softly and let myself in when I heard her say 'come in' from inside."Ah! Iris, what brings you here?" She said lifting her head from a pile of paper work in front of her. She was busy calculating all the expen

    As I walked away, a force pulled me back in place. I spun around, startled for a brief second before I got my composure. Leigh stood before me, his eyes blazing anger."Shit!" I whispered to myself. For a moment, I wondered if he had seen me hug Chad. A misunderstanding was the last thing I wanted right now between us."Leigh, what's wrong?" I asked carefully, trying to sound calm."Are you still seeing him?" he demanded, his tone rough and my yes shone."What do you mean?" I backed up a little.He moved closer in an intimidating way. "I am asking if you are still going in between Chad and I?" He scowled and I bristled."How dare you," I snapped at him. "You have no right to say that to me. Do I look like some cheap harlot that double dates? Hell, we aren't even in a relationship." I shot at him immediately and his expression changed as he realized he just fucked up."Look I..." "If you are going to keep talking to me this way then you better leave." I cut him off. Why does he always

    I should really stop entertaining this kind of conversations and exchanges to not give anyone a wrong impression or false hope. I do not know if he's serious about his advances or not, but I have to avoid him too."Iris," Miss Felice called out to me and I hurried to meet up with her."Madam?" I said and she had this look on her face that was hard to put into words. She just stared at me for a quick second before opening her mouth to speak."You are one lucky girl Iris." She said in a rather fond tone which greatly amazed me."Ah!" Was all I could say because I didn't know how to react. She moved closer to me and placed her hands on my shoulder."Leigh is a child I watch grow up. He knows nothing about love, but since he has chosen to love you, and the goddess also seems to be in your favour, I hope you do not disappoint him." She smiled softly and I nodded."Oh, I remember you said you had something to tell me. You can say it now." She said and the words got stuck in my throat. I did

    "Okay father. But I have to process my resignation. I cannot just up and leave." I said trying to sound reasonable and thankfully he listened to me."Okay." He sighed. "In two days time, I will come to pick you up. By then, everything should have been sorted out right?" He asked and I nodded."Okay dear, I will return to the hospital now. Please stay away from trouble my dear child." He patted my head and I smiled as I hugged him tightly."Bye dad." I said and he hugged me back before going his way. As I watched him leave, I clenched the resignation letter I already had prepared in my pocket. I had wanted to leave because I thought I had lost Leigh forever, but that wasn't the case now. I wanted to stay. I finally have a chance. But now, father wants me back home. What was I going to do now?"Iris!" Anne called me as she rushed towards me. "Are you okay? I heard that you were involved in a fist fight? I hope you won? Is it true that Eleanor wasn't carrying Leigh's child? So no more U
