The servants immediately bowed down when I entered the palace door.

"Sir Jacob."

"Good day Sir Jacob."

I nodded to them one by one to respond to their warm greetings. I walked quietly on the marble floor here in the palace. I looked around, it's still the same as before and not a single one has changed. Dark and cold, those are the two things that are immediately noticed when anyone enters the palace. Cold and dark, the two qualities that my brother has.

I took a deep breath when I was in front of the giant door. I barely adjusted my clothes then knocked three times. When I didn't hear a response from the other side of the door, I grabbed the doorknob and went inside. I was greeted by a cold wind. If it's cold outside, it's even colder inside my brother's office. I looked around the room to look for him. I looked at the man who had his back on me and was holding a glass of wine.

"Dean," I called to my brother who was standing at the glass window and looking at the town below. I go

    I closed my eyes as she started massaging my entire back. Her hands are light, every stroke is gentle but firm and the feeling is good. I also felt sleepy so I spoke so that I wouldn't fall asleep completely."Uhm. Ehere is Jacob?" I asked because she said earlier that she would call him. Knowing Jacob, he will rush here like he always does. I didn't hear any answer from aunt Divina. I would have repeated the question because she might not have heard me when she suddenly spoke. "He is doing fine," she answered as if she was out of her mind. "Doing fine?" I asked with a frown. My question was different from her answer. "Y-yeah. I mean.. Yes. He is doing fine patrolling in the borders with Sebastian," she said promptly. tThere's something off with her voice. Even though I couldn't see her face, I could tell she was a little nervous when she answered. Is there a problem? Did something happen to Jacob that she doesn't want to tell me? I pushed that thought out of my mind. "How many d

    Sebastian looked away from me when our eyes met. He closed his eyes and looked away. Sebastian is acting weird too. He used to smile and always laugh but now he is quiet and impassive. Jacob's arms on me become tighter but still careful for not hurting me. My hands caressing his back went to his hair and gently caressed it. "Is there a problem?" I asked softly. He didn't speak so I just let him think and calm down. After a while, he let go of me and stared at my face. "Is there a problem?" I asked again because I was worried and wondering about his actions now. That's when I noticed some scars on his face. I frowned and involuntarily raised my hand to caress his scars. "What happened to your face? Where did you get them?" I asked while examining his wounds. They have subsided but some are still noticeable. Jacob grabbed my hand and stopped me from what I was doing. My eyes were fixed on his hand. I inhaled deeply. If there are many scars on his face, there are more on his hand. H

    I kept on cursing in my head because of what happened. My heart was also beating fast and I could feel my cheeks getting hot. The image of the man who came here earlier came to my mind. His cold and handsome face is unforgettable. When I remembered his silly grin, I was annoyed. Damn that man. He just kissed me suddenly, without warning and without my consent. He's a total stranger and he dared to do that bold move. What I hate even more is that I liked his kiss! I mentally face palmed. I almost jumped in shock when I heard the soft honking of the car. That's jacob's wrangler. Next I heard a knock on the door and then my name was called. "Lauren," he said. "J-just a moment!" I shouted so he could hear me. I quickly arranged the food on the table and ran to the door to the living room. "Your face is so red. What happened to you?" Jacob asked when I opened the door. "N-nothing. I'm just a little hot," I answered and looked away slightly. "Oh." He looked at my face and frowned. "

    I met Leon with his childish attitude but these past days, I can see his mature side and every time that I see it, I'm surprised and unable to speak. It's like a different version of Leon that I see now. If only his attitude would always be like this, there would be no more problems, there would be no more problems for Jacob and his father. "I never thought that you would go to Galha alone. Did you do it out of guilt?" I ask. Leon sighed and he avoided my gaze. "Of course. It's my fault so it's just natural to feel huge guilt. But aside from that, there's more, and you already know what that is," he said, glancing at me again. It's my turn to sigh. I still haven't forgotten what he said there by the lake that night. But what I'm worried about is how can I say that I don't feel that way for him. That we are just friends. How can I tell him in a way that won't hurt him? I'm afraid that he'll get mad at me if I tell him my thoughts about his proposal. I don't want him to be angry with

    I thought that I have all the privilege to room around the town of Magnuth because of Jacob, thinking that he is the Alpha but he is not. Now that the alpha is back here, I'm still worried about what I will do when he finds out that there is human here in his town.I just got healed and I can't leave. I'm not done with my mission yet. I hope he is kind and will reconsider to let me stay here for a while. "Are you fine with my position?" Jacob asked. "Beta?" I asked again. Sebastian laughed again in the back. "So amusing," he said. "No. Liam is the Beta, my brother's best friend," Jacob answered. "Oh. So what is your position?" "I'm the first Division Captain of Magnuth, and Seb is my right hand," he replied looking directly at the road. Woahh. First Division Captain."Aren't you disappointed?" Jacob turned to me. I raised an eyebrow at him. "Why would I be disappointed?" To be honest, his position seems more cooler than alpha and beta. Being a soldier, front liners must be st

    After my video call with my Dad, I came out of the forest and went to the parked car. I can hear Sebastian's loud laugh from here while teasing Jacob with a red face. "Let's go," I said as I approached them. They both turned to me at the same time. Both of their jaws dropped as they scanned me. The first to recover was Sebastian. He quickly came to me and his eyes widened as he looked at me from head to toe. "What's your problem?" I asked laughing because he was like a child who saw a toy. "You look good in that uniform!" he said full of amazement.I looked at my clothes. I didn't even bother to change because we were going home soon. Wearing this kind of uniform again, I felt the urge to go back to service again. But I decided to take a leave because of my father and with his case right now. I'm afraid that I'll leave the military permanently."Can we take a picture?" Sebastian said then pulled out a cell phone from his pocket. I stared at the cellphone he was holding for a momen

    After our encounter with the beta, we immediately drove to the place where my horse is staying. We entered a small hacienda where different types of animals were scattered. I looked around. it's like our hacienda but it's smaller. "This is where we raise animals for meat," Jacob said when he saw the way I looked around. "Is this yours?" "Yes. This is where we get our supply of meat almost every day.""How about the other citizens?" "Some have their own too and others turn it into a business. They sell it in the market for the townspeople who don't have a farm," he answered. "Ohh." I nodded. "Then why did you choose to build a farm than buy in the market?"My brother prepares to have his own farm. He doesn't want a low quality meat. He wanted it to be always fresh." I didn't ask again. He is the alpha anyway so he is sure to be picky about food and other things. Now I wonder what he looks like. Do they and Jacob look alike? Jacob stopped the car on the side so we got off. The ma

    "Why did you just say this now?" I asked Sebastian coldly. "I..." Sebastian sighed. "I just don't want you and your brother to get into more trouble, so I keep it by myself."Now I understand why Lauren was acting like that when I came home, why she looked like that. Her face is flustered and her lips are swollen because of someone's kiss, not from the bite of an ant. She is in daze that's why she didn't use the right seasonings on the steak. I've been tempted many times to kiss her. If it wasn't for my self control, I would have kissed her a long time ago. But my brother... Damnit. "Did you stay there until my brother leaves?" "Yeah." "Did you see his reaction?" "Yeah." "What's his reaction?" I asked annoyed. Sebastian looked at me. I also looked at him and met his eyes. "Speak now, Seb. I'm getting irritated.""Lauren pushed her out and slammed the door, but Dean? He is smiling to himself like a fool." Dean.. he doesn't smile to everyone because he really doesn't smile. Yo

    Right after I left the clinic, the soldiers arrived at the palace to pick me up. There were students walking with me. They are looking at me and the others are still whispering to each other. But even so, no one even dared to talk to me. That's not a case for me. I know that they are more than me because I am different from them. I felt the same as they did when I first set foot in their place. I was full of doubts but when I spent some time here and got to know them well, I felt reassured. I hope that as the days go by that I am here at their school, I will be able to put them at ease. After I got my horse, I started to run it back to the palace. The two soldiers were on both sides of me and as before they were still speechless. Maybe I'll just ask Dean later if possible not to let them accompany me tomorrow. I have almost memorized the way. I turned to both sides of me as the swift figures of students who were on their way home began to pass. I was really beyond amazed. They are

    Brandon cursed loudly when I bumped my head against him. He smacked his forehead as he retreated. I think he is dizzy because of his tight closing eyes and his staggered retreat. I also rubbed my forehead because I felt dizzy. Heck. Where did I get that move?My eyes are shaking and I think my brain too. With my blurry eyes, I caught a glimpse of Brandon approaching me again. He's still dizzy but I know he still has a lot of energy stored up to punch me again. Damn. How am I supposed to get out of this fight? I'm at my limit here. So far, this is the longest physical combat I've experienced because I finally found someone who is equal to me and surpasses my abilities. I can see that person here in magnuth. I really want to run away from Brandon but that's not in my vocabulary. I would rather fall to the ground defeated than run away from my opponent. Even though I was already weak, I still forced myself to stand up straight and prepare myself.I clenched my fist. But brandon hadn't e

    The attacks that brandon unleashed one after another. His every move is very fast and polished. I finally understand what Amanda said about Brandon. He is a big man and his fists are so big that the force he releases is almost double. I hear screams and shouts as brandon attacks me non-stop. And since I haven't formed yet, all I do is dodge and parry every attack he unleashes. Even when he is attacking, I see that he is always on the defensive so I find it difficult to see an opportunity to attack him."What's wrong little kitten? Are you just going to avoid and block all my attacks? Come on, show me something interesting," he teased. I didn't pay attention to what he said to me. He can blab all the way he wants but I won't give him the satisfaction that he wants. Our fight continued like that until I gradually noticed the weakening of his defense. I secretly grinned. And when I saw a big and wide opening, I clenched my fist hard and gave him a hard punch right on his jaw. Brandon

    Amanda showed me many student training classes. We are now going to the close combat group.My mind was wandering about what amanda and I talked about earlier about having strength like them. It's true that I really envy their strength and abilities but that's all. It's just a kind of envy that doesn't hurt anything, envy and admiration. I won't stoop so low just to get marked by a wolf that isn't my mate. And maybe I'm not one of those lucky human girls to get a wolf mate. I'm envious but I'm not delusional to the point of doing things that are against nature. Whatever I have now I am contented. I will not kneel down just to have the same strength as them. I woke up from my deep thoughts when I heard screams. "That's damn wrong! What kind of posture is that?! You'll get beat in an instant if you keep on doing that! Always stay alert and focus damnit!" "Seriously Jill?? How many times did I tell you to punch harder? Your attacks are too weak! Are you really a wolf? If am your enemy

    The woman was all smiles as she approached me. I just saw him here. She doesn't look like a teacher though. "Hi there! Lauren right?" she said when she finally got close to me. I nodded."Yeah." I immediately heard the accent of her voice. It looks like she didn't grow up here in Magnuth's town, or if she did grow up here, she must have spent a long time in another country. I know that it's rude to talk to her while I'm riding on the back of my horse so I decided to get off.She extended her hand and introduced herself. "My name is Amanda. I am the school's principal."Oh principal huh? That's why she's wearing that. I reached for her hand. "Lauren. It's nice to meet you," I introduced myself even though she already knew me. Maybe Dean already told her that I'm coming here. And it's an honor that she came and welcomed me by herself."The pleasure is mine!" she chirped and laughed a little bit. She's hype okay. Although she looks serious, I feel that she is a kind person and I can g

    I simply looked around here in his office. My eyes were stuck on a plant next to me. I grinned when I guessed what kind of plant it was. A kalachuchi.. I want to laugh because of the many plants that Dean can put in his office, he chooses a kalachuchi. Now, he can taste what his plant tastes like. My movement was quick and agile in picking its leaves. I put the obtained leaves on the table and counted them. I'm secretly laughing. I ground it well to extract all its juice to make it more bitter. When it was over, I put the kalachuchi juice in the coffee I brewed. I also included the crushed leaves for more fun. Luckily it sank and didn't float. I took the spoon and mixed it. I was so excited that my mixing hand was shaking a little. Others are even scattered around the table. Lol. I can't wait to see Dean's reaction and look when he tastes the coffee he made me. "Aren't you done yet?" Dean asked again while teasing me and smirking. Go for it. Make the most of your laughter now bec

    I've only been sitting and reading for a few hours and I'm already feeling bored. I put down my papers I was reading then let out a breath and leaned back in my chair. I really can't stand this kind of job especially since it's different from the jobs Koko taught at the capitol. I learned something but it was really different, more difficult and more complicated. I wasn't surprised anymore because I was in a different world, a world I wasn't used to. Besides that, my body is not used to just lying around and doing nothing. I will definitely get sick if I do this all the time. I prefer to move and is always in action, not someone like this who sits and reads like a politician or businessman. Dean turned to me when he saw me stop what I was doing. "What's wrong?" he asked. "Isn't there anything else to do here besides these?" I asked while still pointing to the piles of papers in front of us. I don't know Dean why he perseveres with this daily work. Probably got used to it. He is de

    I woke up early to prepare our breakfast. As soon as I came out, my nose was immediately attacked by the smell of garlic being roasted. I shakes my head. No matter how early I wake up, they still wake up earlier. They are wolves after all. Maybe it's in their race. I passed Sebastian's room with the door slightly open. I just passed it by and didn't bother to peek. I almost fell when I didn't immediately notice the stairs in front of me. I'm still getting used to this newly renovated house. I went straight to the kitchen. I first saw Sebastian with his back turned and cooking while Jacob was preparing the table. Both of them were shirtless. It's still early but they are showing off their beautiful bodies right away. I think I have to get used on how they dress.Women in our town will definitely lose their minds when they come here and see handsome men without clothes. I grinned."Good morning," Jacob greeted. Sebastian quickly turned to me and greeted me as well. "Good morning Lau

    When we arrived at Jacob's house, all the lights were on and there are huge luggages there. Is there a guest? I was about to ask him when the door suddenly opened and Sebastian spat out with a grin. "Hey Lauren. Good evening!" he greeted and waved slightly."Are those yours?" I asked then pointed to the luggages. "Yep. Flash news Lauren, I'm going to live here!" he said happily. My jaw dropped. What? Did I hear it right? Sebastian pouted because of my reaction. "Why? You don't want me here?" he said like a sulking child. "So Dramatic," I heard Jacob whisper. "It's not like that. I was just really shocked that's why I reacted like that," I answered honestly. "Are you sure?" he assured. I just nodded. "Then come here quick. I'll show you my room." He came to me and slightly pulled my hand. "Alright. Go with Seb. I will take care of the horse." he said in a soft voice. "Thank you Jacob."The arrangement of the living room now is different. The two bedrooms here have now become
