Alessia's POV
I follow Adrian out of the living room of the Alpha's apartment, not knowing where I'm going to. He pulls me by the hand, as we are about passing through the main door, he stops all of a sudden without any warning. He shoots his deadly glare at the groups gathered.
I watch as they shiver in fear, with Phoenix the most afraid. I see it all from his eyes, which are shifting from one end to the other, his girlfriend also tries to avoid gaze with him. I thought he was after them, until he decides to speak up to them.
"Stevania, make sure your servants bring Alessia's belongings along. From today, she's staying with me!" He says as sort of an order. I'm amazed at how he called the Luna who is old enough to be his mother by her name, then I remembered he is the one ruling all of us. His dad, the Lycan King is just an authority by name only, Adrian is the one doing the main administration. In our world, rank matters, not age. You have to submit to a higher ranking werewolf no matter if you are many years older.
That's what Stevania just did as she rose up and bowed her head in submission. I smiled to myself, she was thinking of enslaving me, stopping me from going to college as long as Adrian is here with us but her plan is failed.
Adrian pulls me by the hand again, we pass through the door of the apartment. A car is parked outside of the apartment, the latest model of Toyota. "Enter into the car!" Adrian orders, more out of anger from the event that just happened than a command for me.
I intend to ask where he is taking me to but that audacity isn't there, he's way too high in rank for me to even speak to him with my face raised up to look at him, if the Alpha can't be related with as I like, then the lycan prince deserves much more honor.
I'm lost in thoughts as I stand beside his jeep until a calm but warm touch brushes my left shoulder, I'm immediately awoken from my deep thoughts. I look and it's his palms.
"I'm sorry, Your Highness." I bend my knee to kneel and plead for his forgiveness when he immediately holds by the hands, the piercing scorch of his eyes burns on my skin, making me want to melt. I wish the ground will just open up and swallow me, for the first time my eyes really collided with his at close range.
"Don't be afraid of me. I won't hurt you."
I'm lost staring into this eyes of his which are holding me captive. Without saying any word, he guides into the front seat of the car with the door being held open by him for me to pass through. Amazement pulls through my veins to see an lycan prince do this to me, not just an Alpha.
"Go in, I'm the one telling you to go in. Remember I'm not just an ordinary Alpha nor a prince who is just aimed at claiming superiority. I care about the rights of the low ranking members particularly women."
I arch my brows in surprise, part of me yields to delight. I can't believe that he has just given preference to women. I gulp down the saliva in my mouth.
"Now go in. There is no much time!" I can't stand seeing him angry, to avoid this, I immediately jump into the car, he closes the door and walks over to the other side, opens the door and gets in. He closes it back and starts the car without even looking at me, his eyes are stern and fixed on the steering before him.
"Where is he driving to?" I ask inside me, not daring to ask him this.
"To my apartment!" I hear him say, this gets me shocked. "But I was just saying this inside of me?" I throw another question at myself.
"You still refuse to talk to me?" I shake in horror at this question.
"I don't mean to.....Your Highness!" I respond with my face shaking, glancing towards the floor of the car.
"Look at me!" He orders, I do but wouldn't be remaining the same again as I feel a cool shock and feeling run through my veins, a feeling I have never felt before. It links up with my nerves, before I realize, I'm already having a sensational tinkle on my core.
"What's going on?" I ask my wolf, this time around praying he doesn't detects what I'm saying inside of me. Lycans have the special capability of listening to what people are saying in their minds, but only if they choose to pay attention.
Adrian's POVI wonder why she is so afraid of me upon knowing I wouldn't hurt her, I'm only trying to help her, to make sure she has a safe place to live. Where she lived before now was the den of lion, if Phoenix doesn't breaks her, surely his girlfriend would do and I don't want to see any Omega suffer.I drive her to the apartment I came from still in the estate, which is wide and large like a college campus. I've been given the most beautiful block in this estate but it's also the farthest, secluded from other blocks with a flower garden and beautiful fence, a solid golden gate. From seeing this, I'm pretty sure it has been reserved for a great guest, perhaps myself.At first sight of this apartment, a two storey building, full with servants and maid's upon my arrival, I became so impressed but none of these domestic aides did I got personally impressed by, I need someone like a personal side I can trust, a chef and guide especially as I'd be attending college tomorrow. A lycan pr
Alessia's POVHearing him talk about meeting the Alpha and Luna gets me anxious, I begin to wonder why he wants to have a meeting with me. It can because of me. There is nothing that will make him want to meet people he got angry with and left when the meeting was still on hold outside of me.My thoughts would be verified if he invited Alpha Phoenix and his girlfriend as well but he might just see them as lower, he is too superior to talk with them, either way it must be about me.I stand on one corner of the room thinking about my fate, then what Phoenix did to me, the rejection and public harassment replays in my head, tears starts to stream down my eyes to my cheeks."Have you forgotten you are before your prince?" I hear a commanding voice sound before me, I shift in horror. My eyes clears to reveal him standing before me. He moves closer to me, from where I decide to take a step backward. I need my own personal space."What's making you cry?" By his tone and facial expression, he
Alessia's POVI'm so amazed to be asked out this way by a lycan prince, of all lycans, he is choosing an Omega like me to ask out. No matter what, I know that there must be some secret intentions which is making him to ask me out. A prospective lycan king doesn't goes for a chosen mate in the wolf world except those who are getting older like in their forties who believe that they would not be meeting with their fated mates again.It's assumed and henceforth believed to be true that if a lycan prince or king goes for a chosen mate when he isn't old, then there is some secret he is trying to hide from the chosen mate and his people. Adrian has some secret before he would come to choose me as a mate. I don't deserve such.I look lost as I sit on Adrian's legs, I wouldn't let him lead me the way of doom by not asking why he wants me as a mate. 'A man's beauty shouldn't lead you to damnation!' This is one of the favorite cliches mom uses to say and since then I've picked it into my head.
Alessia's POV"Ask your Alpha and Luna to tell you." He responds with indifference in his tone, from here, I'm forced to look at Alpha Aaron and Luna Stevania, the sinister motives they had for me is still evident by the way they keep their faces."Alessia, I think you would return with us because we at danger if you don't get mated to our son who is soon to be Alpha of the pack, your dad will soon hand over to him!"I look at her like a piece of trash, but not too obvious. "How about Gracelynn, ma'am?""Why are you going by ma'am in addressing her?" Adrian casually asks because it isn't common to find a werewolf calling another werewolf, a Luna ranked by any other name apart from what she is. Even in the offices, they go with the titles of Alpha, Luna, Beta and Gamma, only the Omegas like me are called by their real name by the superiors."No, nothing." I smile, waving my hand."That's how she has always called me!" Stevania mutters. The next thing I see is Adrian taking his fist tow
Alessia's POV Even upon arriving in college, Adrian's mood hasn't changed despite the varieties of things I have done to ease him. As we arrive, it's thirteen minutes past eight, we are thirteen minutes late and I can attribute this lateness to the change in his mood, which made him a little slower in doing things. We are supposed to open the door, to go off to our respective duties but Adrian refuses, his face changes and it seems he wants to cry, seems like this but I know he would never do that. You hardly see a lycan cry because they are not only stronger in body and wolf, but in heart, the only thing capable of making them cry is the loss of a loved one. "Alessia.." "Yes, your highness." He pulls his hand towards me, and looks at me straight in the eyes, tears drain off it, in a flash, he wipes them off such that I begin to imagine if it was a dream or real. He places his right hand on my laps, brushes it, I would feel strange if it was before the romance, but I feel se
Alessia's POV Oh I remember now....... "Yes, he is my fated mate," I repeat this time with so much confidence so that no one of them detects the difficulty that I'm passing through. They would certainly laugh if they knew I attributed him as my fated mate because of one thing or the other when it's not so. This is a personal issue to reinvestigate. "I have no much time for you guys." I say this before I take off them, placing my phone beside my ears so it looks I'm in some important girls, it's an urgent case I need to go away to attend to. The truth is I'll find one place and take a seat, then I'll have to message Adrian of what I'm doing so he wouldn't go directly to the lecture theater without me, of course, he was looking for someone who would guide him through being new here. I'm making this entrance, if possible with our hands entwined. I eventually find a seat at the side of the water fountain in the college garden. I take out my phone from my bag which I had placed into af
Adrian's POV After classes, I wanted meeting up with Phoenix to confront him about his bullying my mate together with his girlfriend but I learnt that he returned home to have an important meeting with his parents and the pack elders. The pack elders are the Alpha makers, they are in charge of establishing a new Alpha in any pack. I learnt before now that soon he will be crowned the Alpha but who cares, I have no such time for him. Whether he is the crowned Alpha or not, I'll still give him what he deserves. I naturally hate him for being a bully, I came to see the bad side of him, which from there started making me hate him with so much disgust. If I can't get to see him today, tomorrow is going to be another day. Way into driving into the street that leads to the pack estate, I receive a call, it's from no one other than my dad, the lycan king. Something really important must have come up, before he decided to call. He doesn't just lies calling, particularly as he is getting older
Alessia's POV I remain in the chambers after Adrian went out to check he site of his new estate after his supervisor informed him of an urgent need. While watching the TV, my mind goes off to think of what just befell me, the decision of the lycan King. Everyone knows how powerful he is and how his words are sooner or later executed. Adrian has never let anything worry him, but I can see how worried he is in this case, even as he was going out. I yawn, feeling tired and frustrated, there's no how I can return back to Phoenix, he has a girlfriend he loves already and besides he doesn't loves me. I wouldn't be able to fight for love from a man, even though he is my mate. I rise up from the couch and head to the bedroom, which is part of the chambers. Like a heep of wood falling off a platform, I drop on the soft bed, moaning in pains, emotional pains. At other times, dropping on a soft, fluffy bed like this would bring out a sweet, blissful moan from me. Today is quite different. I h
