LEONIEGina smiled at me, and sat down beside me. “It’s not rocket science, Leonie. It’s so evident,” she teased.I gasped in shock. If that were the case, then the maids knew this? Is that why they were all trying to stay away from me? Damn it, I have been exposed all these while. Of course, Lina Royale kept screaming mate everywhere, but I was hoping that no-one would have heard it must have been told not to spread the rumour.“You’ve lost your colour. Is it so horrible if someone found out the truth about you and Alpha Gunnolf’s relationship?” Gina queried, obviously nothing how pale my face was. I wasn’t the cheerful person that I was. Wait, since I got here I was never cheerful, even with Gina. My sense of humour had been buried, and I doubt it would ever come out again. I was truly doomed to this life, and nothing more. It was so painful that everything had to be like this. I hated it with so much passions and I hoped that things would definitely change for good.“What are you
LEONIEThe heat of the day was brutal, but I honestly didn’t mind much because I was having a good time, strangely. After what happened at home, I didn’t think my day would go smoothly, but it was the exact opposite that was happening. I was honestly having so much fun, and being the best version of myself which I never thought I would be.Ok, I’m exaggerating because it wasn’t my aura that was making me happy, but it was that of Alpha Gunnolf. My eyes settled on him as he went about talking with the plant processing workers who sat in group of trees, peeling seeds and removing leaves as they placed it in the sun or a weird looking basket to brink out its juice. Despite how strenuous the task was, they were having so much fun doing it. And, they always looked at Alpha Gunnolf like he was a form of light that had been sent to them. It was so amazing watching these things take fruition. A smile touched my lips as I watched Alpha Gunnolf move with such grace that floored me to my knees
LIAMDid she just protest against Alpha Gunnolf’s wishes? The nerve of the little girl is so great, and I couldn’t help but glare at her. She had a lot of nerve, and hopefully Alpha Gunnolf wouldn’t get impressed by all of these. An Alpha, especially an Alpha King, needed a strong Luna to be able to lead with him in strength, because it was a tough journey.“I would just pretend that you never said such nonsense,” Alpha Gunnolf said easily.I watched ass she bowed. “I’m sorry for my audacity, but I would go where you go, Alpha Gunnolf Royale because it’s my duty as your pack maid, and I take it very seriously. What if you would…”I stepped in front of her, stalling her words. “Are you not ashamed to argue with your Alpha? You’re a miserly human and nothing more, so you better know your place. No-one argues when the Alpha makes his decisions. So, who are you to argue?” I snapped.She flinched, and that gave me more courage to jerk her to the side harshly. I watched as she tried to co
ALPHA GUNNOLFThe dinner was a bit uptight, and I had a feeling that it would get worse as time went by. I had the urge to leave, but it would be disrespectful to Liam, so I sat stiffly on my chair, turning the sauce repeatedly with the noodles.Alexa was close to me, and I noted that she was looking at me expectantly like she wanted me to say something. I almost thought that she had discussed with her father about the marriage stuff. No! She couldn’t be that desperate though the way she had requested to be mated had been something else.“Alpha Gunnolf,” Liam called suddenly.I slowly dropped my spoon and turned to face Liam. He was visibly upset, and I wondered what the problem could be. I rose my brow curiously as I waited for him to speak. He looked at his daughter and then back at me.“What is it, Liam?” I asked impatiently.He shifted his gaze to me. “I would like to talk to you away from Alexa. It’s kind of important.” He informed me. I nodded, and stood up. Liam did same, and
LEONIEThe fact that the doctor understood me so well made me feel like I’ve got someone else with me. I wasn’t so worried about her finding out that I had a mate in this pack, but I was sure that she would never know it was Alpha Gunnolf.I was going to be fine, and everything would work out well soon. I knew that like I knew about almost everything that was happening with me. Everything was going to be fine. I was dead sure of it. Everything would be ok, and things would definitely change for good soon. I was going to have the happiness that I definitely deserve.“I understand everything that you’re passing through. I know that it’s difficult to have a mate that doesn’t care for you,” Doctor Fanny said softly. I sat up slightly as I looked at her. She had so much hurt in her voice with each statement that she made, and I really felt bad for her. She was so kind to the people when she treated them and she didn’t deserve to feel like this about her mate.“Tell me, did this happen to
LINA ROYALEThere was this pain I felt when I thought about Leonie. I couldn’t understand why she had to suffer this much because of my son. I had no idea what had happened between them, but it was wrong for Gunnolf to treat her like this. It was not the way I had thought him to treat a woman. His hatred for humans was going to cheat him out of living a life of happiness if care was not taken.I didn’t like it for him at all. This was not the way things should be for him.But, what exactly should I do now? I walked around the table, and stared at the food that had been set for me. The yam puddings and sauce were too much. I sighed as I stepped forward. I pulled out the chair and sat down, then unwrapped things as easily as I could.“No, I can’t just do things like this. I can’t eat alone, knowing fully well that Leonie was hurting.” I mumbled to myself. I don’t know when it happened, but she was like a daughter to me, and it was my duty to make sure that she was ok, mentally.“Giselle,
LEONIEI stared in shock at Alpha Gunnolf. I couldn’t for the life of me believe that he was standing in front of me. It felt like it was another man. What was he doing here in my room? He pushed me slightly backwards, and stepped into my room.I stared at his broad back in shock. Alpha Gunnolf never came to my room. I was aware that some maids were trying to eavesdrop on my conversation and I closed the door in response. I turned back and I saw Alpha Gunnolf glaring at me.“How dare you?” He said in rage. I blinked twice in shock as I watched him come close to me. I couldn’t move, even when he was right in front of my face. Everything was so crazy at that moment, and I could only stare into hi s blue eyes.Without thinking, I licked my lips slightly. “Tell me what’s going on, please?” I managed.“You want to know what’s going on?” He asked in rage. I nodded. “What’s going on is that you can’t stop sinking your talons into my soul! You are the most annoying human in the planet. What g
ALPHA GUNNOLFI was putting on my blue cotton outfit that hung around my ankles. There was this rage that I felt about everything that was currently happening, but I was trying my best to control my emotions. It was proving so difficult. I can’t accept Leonie no matter what. She was nothing but a human, and a crazy one at that, and there was nothing that was going to change about it. She would do good to remain at the bottom barrel. She is never going to get anywhere in my life.Just then, I heard a knock on the door. I frowned slightly. These days, I had relieved the guards of their duties and they were getting a bit slack, and I didn’t like it one bit.There was no reason for these things to happen. It was really annoying that they forgot their duties momentarily, and I would have to get a talk with them.I have been so busy with Leonie’s issues that I forgot the more pressing ones, and that would have to change. There was no way I was going to allow Leonie make me slack when it cam
