selene split her eyes open slowly, her gaze fixed on her surroundings while she glanced around.Why was she awake? The last thing she recalled was being in bed, a little more tired than she needed to be.But this wasn't her bed; as a matter of fact, nothing around looked like hers. She tensed up as it all came to her: the memories of the previous occurrences—she had been crying in the rain, Logan had chased her, some passersby had helped her. So why was she here?.“You should not be getting yourself worked up, nor should you have been on the road to begin with.” A voice called out to selen . She raised her head slowly in the direction it came from, and to her surprise, a strikingly handsome man remained in the chair, knees crossed with a book in his handsHe had not moved his gaze by a bit; he wasn't worried about her, and that ended up just saying she wanted to while she took in as much information she could have about the man who appeared right across the room.There was something
!Nathan sensed selene 's worry, but he meant no harm; all he wanted to do was spend some time with her."Please, your Highness, if you won't mind standing by the side a bit, I'll be done soon.'' selene responded before grabbing her brooms. She felt really disturbed by every bit of it; as a matter of fact, she didn't like the occasion one bit. Why was he being unnecessarily grumpy when she had done nothing to him“Your Highness? I see someone who has gotten better manners in the span of a week and who trained on speech and etiquette." Nathan asked, teasing her on purpose. selene understood what it was that he was doing and chose to ignore him. She moved the furniture and wiped continuously while his gaze remained on her.There was just about selene that enchanted him; it could be her beauty, but Nathan knew he was an alpha; he had seen one too many beautiful she-wolves and knew certainly it wasn't that. Perhaps her humility as well, but then he had met with hundreds of shewolved
A whole week had passed since the incident, and he had never felt at his lowest like he had done at the moment. He found himself driving day and night, most times until dawn, even in the middle of the night, returning to the spot he had left, hoping selene had somehow returned for him.He hated himself each passing minute or his love; everyone in the pack felt his pain as well. He no longer attended meetings; all he did was sit home and sulk. Gray has been in charge of most of his meetings, covering his spaces and outing information. He knew he could barely cover up the truth for long; certain things needed to be done.“Again!” Gary asked while he made his way into Logan 's room, sure enough to have the bottle of alcohol snatched off his wrist before setting towards the bar once more.“You can't keep living your life like this; I understand that you miss her, and you've got to make hard choices; I understand that there is nothing else that is worth living for, but you still can't kee
selene remained tinned in her seat while her eyes were pinned against those of nathan e. She wasn't sure what to say, but eventually a scoff eased up her throat while she rolled her eyes around a bit, feeling really funny at the moment.“You really know how to make one; am I expected to say yes to this silly attempt at a joke? And worse still, you meant it; why on earth will I decide to accept the proposal from some sort of man I've never known?” selene questioned Nathan while he nodded.Of course, he had been a man of few words and more action. Nathan knew so well that if he wanted to force her into marriage, he could, but he wasn't interested in having the method used on selene ; quite a lot had caught his fancy. He wasn't sure what it was that he felt for her, but the doctor made it clear when he asked her to be treated that she was expecting a child in a few months ahead.At that moment, selene had hooked him. Although there had still been more than enough means of keeping ta
“I think you have a better shot to be Alpha than your brother. I mean, how much longer will you continue to bask in his shadows?” Zara asked while she was closer to Lexus, gently placing her head against his chest.Lexus felt a little uncomfortable upon hearing Giannis' words; he had to admit that his feelings for Zara had suddenly become way too much for him to bear. He was crazy about it. At first, it started off between them with nothing but a little smile, maybe little talk, little walks and talks every few words, and for Lexus his feelings for Zara were genuine.But Zara was wrong; perhaps Lexus was not too keen on the words. afterall she knew that there wasn't going to be much trouble and talks,besides, Logan was in love with selene and didn't feel a single thing for Zara , Lexus believed things were not to continue. He had to do one thing or do another, but talks of Logan and impeachment had never been anything he would want to consider, and so far, Zara has been push
selene noticed the environment and how refreshing it was. She took a deep breath, feeling worn out by the aura and feeling swimming inside of me. She couldn't help but admire Nathan 's pack.. She still had not given him a response to his proposal the previous night, but then who could blame me?.She wasn't sure of what to do and diving into conclusions had never worked well for her.“Do you like it?” Nathan asked as soon as they drove through the huge iron wrought bars of the mansion.Alorq wasn't sure what she felt yet but she could acknowledge that it made her feel different but in a good way and she loved the way the environment seemed lively than that of Logan s.“It's alright,” she responded.She sat down and watched as the maids in the yard were arranging and everyone doing their thing. She smiled and felt Nathan 's hands around her shoulders. They needed the publicity, he had spoken to her through it. If they were to get married and pulled a heavy stunt, it had better be
“Oh, I'm sorry, I must have made mistakes with the rooms.” Selene apologized and turned on her feet hastily while her heart pounded in her chest. She knew it was her room but had no idea why a strange cold lady had been in there all along.“I'm Sophie.. You didn't get to catch my name, by the way, and yes, this is your room, not mine.” Sophie responded, sure to have a cunning smile passed to Selene , who felt immediately uncomfortable. She's not certain what the odd woman had been up to, and neither did she think it was actually worth anything to begin with; it made her sick down to the nerves, to be fair.“Oh.. Is there anything, Sophie? With you being in my room and all?” Selene asked; of course she was no fool. She had dealt with Zara before; she knew a rival so well if she had seen one; only that the way she intended to handle it was going to make a difference.They usually get bitchy and besides, she had no intentions of spending a single moment getting caught up in love f
!“Selene ?” Nathan asked, placing gentle knocks against her door. No response fell through, and it bothered him a bit. He swallowed hard, not liking the turns of things, but he needed to do it anyway. She couldn't blame him, and he was certain she would understand after he explained his plight to her.All of those, Nathan still hesitated; he felt bitter to the core. He placed a continuous knock on the door, not wanting to be rude, but after several minutes of standing by the door and getting no response panic struck him. He had come terribly worried and pushed through the door hastily while glancing around in fear and worry.“I'm sorry…” Nathan spoke as he made his way into the room. He stopped; however, his eyes darted across too, hastily he pushed the bathroom door open; it was empty. He checked the closets and found the same thing! h.“Selene ?” He held again; he knew she wasn't probably playing hide and seek, especially in such a situation, yet she couldn't understand what th
