LIAMThe interactions between Alpha Gunnolf and the maid, who was called Leonie was the opposite of what the job entailed. Wait, there was no maid that followed the Alpha around. Why would Alpha Gunnolf need a maid to move with him suddenly? It didn’t make a leak of sense.I walked quickly as I ignored the youth that just jumped towards my path in his wolf form. The bastard was not my problem right now. What was more important right now was Alpha Gunnolf and my daughter’s relationship. I wouldn’t allow anyone to take what rightfully belonged to my daughter. We haven’t gone this far for nothing.I sighed as I walked into my home. The first thing I saw was Alexa making up with those makeup things that I never understood. She had better use the whole thing well because I didn’t want a situation where we would have to be mocked by the community and cheated from entering into the royal family. It would annoy the off out of me.I walked over to her, but she barely recognised my presence.“A
LEONIEI have been following Alpha Gunnolf all day, and honestly I wasn’t finding it funny. Now, we were back at the palace just in time for dinner. I wasn’t sure that there was anything left to eat for me though. Though, things were changing, Tina still didn’t give me enough food.I held onto the basket as I tried hard not to slump. It was not easy following Gunnolf around. He changed his mind on where he wanted to be, and they had to trek again continuously. She didn’t understand why he had to punish her like that. Yes, this wasn’t earth, but there were silver, and golden chariots. He could easily use one of them to make their life bearable, but no, he just wanted to trek through the whole pack, and the thing was that, it was a huge place.The Twilight Pack was actually bigger than she had thought. There were so many people living here. It was wild. And, the teens…“I understand that you love to daydream, but can you do that in your room?” Alpha Gunnolf snapped suddenly.I gulped sl
LEONIE“Shut the fuck up, maid!” Alpha Gunnolf snapped.I blinked in fear as my hands tremble, causing the fork to drop on my plate. I looked back at my plate, wondering if he was going to hit me. He had never done so before, but there is always a first time for everything, right?“Gunnolf! Apologise to Leonie right now. How could you call your mate, a maid? I believe I thought you better, so what is all these? How can you be so rude to her?” Lina Royale snapped angrily.Alpha Gunnolf rose from his seat, his chair slamming against the floor with a bang, shocking both I and his mother. He was literally mumbling some words as he left the table.With him gone, my hands suddenly became more stable. Ok, I had been scared of what he was going to do to me. “Leonie,” Lina Royale called.I turned towards her direction, and I noted that she was looking at me curiously. I wondered what she was going to say now. I wasn’t so sure about so many things, but all I knew was that I didn’t want any more
LEONIEI blinked twice in shock. How could she say something like that? My eyes went to Alpha Gunnolf even though I was so embarrassed to look at him in the eye, but he didn’t even pay attention to me, or even acknowledge my presence.“He is too shy to stare at your breasts, come and have your sit, dear,” Lina Royale said easily.The maid in-charge of setting the breakfast table looked at me in shock. I was aware that the way Lina Royale had said it meant so many things. I mean, that was the lie I was telling myself so I wouldn’t feel shame or anything like that. I wanted nothing more but for her to stop the couple jokes so I wouldn’t have to be bullied when I got home from my pack duties.With a deep breath, I walked over to my seat, opposite Alpha Gunnolf. He didn’t blink twice when he saw me sit. He was completely indifferent like I don’t exist. Unlike yesterday, he was so detached. And, that made me a bit anxious. Why couldn’t Lina Gunnolf see that her son didn’t like me at all.
LEONIEI watched as Alpha Gunnolf stepped closer to where we were. I wondered if he was going to shout at me because I had failed to listen to his instructions to stay back at the training ground. I hoped not because it would be so embarrassing, and I was not able to bear more of his taunts, and I don’t want this nurse to mark me as someone that she could bully.Alpha Gunnolf finally stepped closer to us. I swallowed hard as I looked at the nurse who was swallowing repeatedly. Well, I guess it wasn’t just me that was scared of the Alpha. I turned my attention back at Alpha Gunnolf, he was glaring at the nurse.“Is that how to speak to someone? Who trained you as a nurse? Answer me, Hilbert!” He screamed at her.I shook in shock and fear. Did he just speak to my defence? It seemed like I was waking up in another dream slate. This was definitely nor normal. How could this be? Turning my gaze to the nurse, I noted that she was shaking profusely, and I worried that she might actually fain
ALPHA GUNNOLFLeonie looked at me with her eyes round in shock. Is that what she thought of me? She thought I was the wicked Alpha? I groaned inwardly, annoyed. I could see the way the gold strands almost slid out of her braids. It looked like she was just waking up from her bed. The though stilled me. Glaring at her for making me feel such an emotion, I signalled for her to get up.She didn’t move.“Are you dumb? Get up, damn it! I snapped angrily.She gasped in shock as she stood up on her feet, knocking the basket to the ground. I mentally screamed. This wasn’t the type of mate that I had wanted at all. How could someone be so clumsy? Bloody humans!‘She is vulnerable and cute. Try to be a bit kinder, it wouldn’t kill you,’ my wolf contradicted.I ignored him. Leonie was literally packing up the discarded things on the floor, and trying her best to be as fast as possible. I glared at her, and tried hard not to look underneath the damn dress she was wearing. It was so short, almost
LEONIEOh, my goodness!I cleaned my eyes rapidly, and looked right at Alpha Gunnolf. He was still playing tag with the kids. Honestly, I was shocked. The only time I had seen him like this was with fastest Trish, and even then, he had been a bit reserved. He wasn’t like this. It was shocking to note that Alpha Gunnolf was capable of laughing, playing and just being jovial.It felt like I was seeing another man. I watched leap playfully in the air, as the children struggled to grab him by his legs. His hair was falling over his face, yet he made no move to smoothen it. He was normal, calm and cute and even I, could say this with her full chest. It was unlike I had ever seen him before, and I couldn’t help the smile that touched my face. Alpha Gunnolf was actually a very handsome man. I watched as he struggled to put the strands that had fallen across his face in a bun. It tugged at my heart, and I couldn’t help but watch him. Despite the distance, I could see the clear blue of his ey
LINA ROYALEI glared at my son. It was so annoying when he did things like this. What was wrong with him? This was not how I trained him up to be. He couldn’t be treating his mate like this after everything I and his father about honouring the bond. “Gunnolf, I’m really disappointed in your choice of words. This is not how I thought you will end up being. It’s so wrong when you act this. I didn’t train you this way, Gunnolf. I trained you to respect your mate. I trained you to honour the goddess choices because she is never wrong. He sees what we don’t see, and makes it easier for us to actualise all our dreams. Why is it that you don’t want to understand this?” I asked in exasperation.Gunnolf scoffed. It was evident that he didn’t care about what I was saying. I hated this side of him so much and it annoyed me that he was allowing his hate for humans to cheat him out of true happiness. “Oh, you’re done? I thought you still had more things tell me.”“Gunnolf!” I snapped at him.He
LEONIEI stared at him in shock. I couldn’t believe he would tell me to do that. I had come with the Alpha, and from what I could see, almost everyone around were treating him with utmost respect. They all bowed low, and spoke in calm tones. So, why did this man think he could tell me to lick his shoe? I just couldn’t beat the level of stupidity that I was seeing.“Are you deaf? I believe you know your status, you lowlife. Do as I say this minute!” He snapped on top of his voice, sending cold fear through my spine.“I…”“That’s enough,” Alpha Gunnolf said, stalling my words. I blinked in shock as I tried to stand on my feet, so the wine would at least slide off my sari. The last thing I wanted was to feel sticky, but I was so scared at the same time.The whole hall had gone silent, and no-one was willing to say a word. I tried hard not to shake under every scrutiny as I feared for the Alpha’s next words. He was not nice tonight, and there was a good chance that he might send me to the
LEONIE“We’ve arrived!” One of the guards screamed on top of his voice.I swallowed the lump in my throat as I looked ahead. It was so dark out here, but the building in front was illuminated by candles giving a haunted appearance. It’s not like I have ever being to a haunted house, but I had watched a couple of movies that depleted it. Though, this was nothing like them. It was much worse.“Are you going to step out of the carriage or what?” Alpha Gunnolf snapped at me, bring me to my senses.I bowed slightly, and stepped out. There was no form of kindness in his gait or expression. I also noted that he avoided looking at me. It was like I wasn’t a part of anything that was important to him, and that made me feel so unwanted and unloved.Despite this, I struggled to keep up with him. Lina Royale had informed him to make me feel good, but he was doing the exact opposite. I had no idea what it was going to cost him if he at least treated me with respect. He was so cold, and mean to me,
LEONIEThe maid and Lina Royale made me seat with my back turned to the mirror as they fussed with me. Lina Royale barked out orders to the maid, who complied with everything that was being said. I tried to calm down, knowing I had no place to make any requests. Lina Royale was set to do all she wanted to do, and I had no place to stop her.“It’s done, Queen mother,” the maid said calmly.I think I heard a note of jealousy in her voice. I could understand that she felt like I was more privileged than her, and I hoped it wouldn’t be a problem in the future. When whatever Lina Royale was planning fails, because it always doors, I would be the one to bear it all, and I was definitely not looking forward to any of these, but I needed to be calm for now.“That is very good,” Lina Royale said easily.The maid stepped back, and Lina Royale looked at me in shock. The shock slowly transformed into awe. I tried to touch my face, but she swatted it off, mumbling that I was set to ruin the makeup
LEONIEMy throat had gone sore from the amount of shouting that I have been doing. The guards wouldn’t bulge from their locations, and they looked about ready to hoist me away from there so I wouldn’t speak with Alpha Gunnolf.It pained me deeply, and unable to bear that I would be locked out in this way, I ran as fast as I could to the servant quarters. A couple of maids were looking at me curiously, but I hardly cared about anything other than my own feelings.10 steps away from my door, I caught the back view of Gina. I wasn’t ready to talk to her. I’m sure she must have heard my voice, that was why she had come here. But, she would have to go back how she came because I’m not in the mood to give her audience.I ran as fast as I could, but it was a bit late. Gina had her eyes on me in seconds, and she was looking at me like I had sprouted a horn at the back of my head.“Leonie, what is the matter?” She asked kindly.I shook my head, and plunged along the path leading to my room. I
ALPHA GUNNOLFLeonie flinched as I rose my hands up. It was evident that she felt like I was about to strike her, but I wasn’t going to do that, yet I brought my hands down. The pain in her eyes were alive, but I ignored it. She was not to be trusted.“Why did you do all these?” I asked in a calmer voice.She fidgeted pulling her hands around as she tried hard not to meet my gaze. I wondered if she thought I would find out the truth if I looked into her eyes. It should be the case, for her kind are not good people.“I don’t understand, Alpha Gunnolf. The kid was crying and I couldn’t let him go just like that. I had to do something,” she said calmly.I turned away from her, my hands fisting to my sides. “Liar!” I accused.I could hear her sharp intake of breath. “I’m not lying. I would never try to flee from helping someone,” she said quietly.I growled as I took in the deserted backyard. I closed my briefly to control myself. I had to be in control of my emotions and the situations.
LEONIE I really didn’t know what I was going to do with the kid. He was crying even harder, and this situation was not something that I was used to. How would I be able to handle any of these? There was no way to explain the shot of adrenaline that went through my veins. I was so scared about the whole thing that was happening, but equally charged to protect the child, though I could not understand how he could transform from wolf to child so easily. I mean, nothing about this was normal. What thing was for sure, I couldn’t continue thinking on what to do and what not to do. It was killing time, and the water was getting into the kid’s lungs. He was literally whimpering on me, and I knew I had to do something to help him. I had to protect him from dying from the water. I had no idea how werewolf system works, but I knew it wouldn’t be too different with his human state. “Hold onto me,” I said fiercely. The child tightened his hold on me, and I slowly held the rope as I placed bot
CHAPTER 75LEONIEWhat was that noise? I sat back down in shock. I had no idea what I should expect from the situation. Everything was really going crazy, and there was the probability that I was hearing things. Yes, that should be it.I was definitely hearing things because there is no way that noise was real. I sat down and pulled the basket closet to me, while looking at the empty room. The ones who were in need of urgent medical help were nowhere to be found. So, it was just me that was remaining and I was a bit nervous.I leaned my head on the chair, as I thought about taking a nap. It would make me less worried about my surroundings, and I might be able to focus on what was coming next. Yes, I had great hope that it would be the case with me. I was optimistic for results at this point, and pretty sure that things would happen the way I had planned it to happen.Then, the howl came worse than earlier almost making me jump up. It was the craziest I had heard in a long while and
LEONIEI walked ahead of the guards. There was a tingling in my soul with each step I took. Hopefully, Alpha Gunnolf wouldn’t skin me alive right now. I was hoping against hope that things would be easy going forward.I rounded the corner that took me to the throne room, and I noted that there was barely anyone around. It was odd, and it made me feel more scared. I had no idea the type of mood that Gunnolf was in. He was so unpredictable at all times, and it made me more nervous than ever. This wasn’t what I wanted one bit.A guard pushed me forward, and finally I found myself in the line leading to his throne. I could see him from where I stood. He was so off and annoyed about so many things, and I really wondered how I was going to get exempted from his wrath.I never wanted to be in Gunnolf’s bad side. I just wanted to have peace, and believe that things were a bit better. Oh, a girl can dream. It was crazy how much pain I was getting right now, and I wished that things would chan
LEONIEI lay down on my bed thinking about everything that had happened in the past few weeks. I was so worried that I had not been able to truly give my all to this relationship. What? It wasn’t a relationship, but a situation-ship. It was crazy how these things were happening to me. I wanted nothing more than for everything to fall into place, but I had no idea how this was going to happen.Alpha Gunnolf had proven beyond reasonable doubt that he couldn’t stand me. He hated my guts and everything that had to do with me. There was no way I would be able to win his heart. He was completely disgusted by me.Taking a pillow, I used it to cover my face. I was sad beyond words, and I still didn’t want to cry. There was no use of crying when it was evident that I would never be the one he would choose.My heart ached so hard. I knew that I had to give into that, but I didn’t want to as well. I didn’t want to be the last person on the block. I didn’t want to be discarded like a doll. Alpha
