The sky was gloomy. Lena extended her body and let out a yawn, opening her eyes and letting out a startled scream. She lay next to the Alpha Don, nude. She pricked her skin, remembering what had happened between them and accusing herself of luring him in again.She got off the bed quite carefully. "I hope he does not punish me for that," she thought to herself as she carefully opened the door and left the room. She gets to make them a meal and then wakes him awake.Reaching the doorpost of the kitchen, she observed Eowyn working by herself in the kitchen. Her face frowning, she stopped to examine what she was doing. "I gave her no instructions on what to prepare. Who owns the meal?" She gulped hard, her gaze riveted on Eowyn.Upon witnessing her applying something onto a plate and then mixing it, she thought it absurd and nearly stormed into the kitchen. She observed as she transferred the food to another dish and promptly cleaned it. "What was that all about? She just added somethin
The Pack Ministers were present in the hall chamber. They had convened for their weekly meeting with the Alpha Don. Everybody bowed respectfully when the door opened and the Alpha entered.Although they consider it an honour to have the Supreme Alpha as their Pack's ruler, they find the caution that goes along with it to be very restrictive. Since the Alpha Don ascended to the throne as their monarch, they were no longer permitted to engage in silly business or unlawful activities that involved lavishing the money that would be utilized to feed the peasants.“Where is the royal secretary?” They flinched as they looked about, trying to find the secretary, hearing Alpha Don's raspy voice. As the royal secretary entered the hall, he said, "Let us start the meeting."As the minutes passed, the Chief Minister emerged as the person who would present the report for discussion during the meeting."May your Majesty live long...” he bowed before speaking. "To start with, we heard that this morn
His arms curled around Lena, making her appear soft in his embrace. He inhaled her scent and gasped, eyes narrowed. He was enamored with the sensual attraction and desired nothing more than to feel her moisture between her legs.Heart palpitating, Lena took a deep breath. When she noticed her boobs rubbing against his and her palms resting on his chest, she realized she could not get away from him again. He had gotten her again, enticing him, something she had promised herself she would not do—and she would pay the price.She moistened her lips. The three words, "Punish me—Alpha," sprang out of her mouth as her heart raced thinking about what would happen. Will he treat her in a way that makes her want more, or will he f*ck her carelessly so all she feels is pain?She considered herself dead for saying so, watching as his lips quirked into a mischievous smile. Who knew? He had no intention of punishing her.His right palm touched her butt, squeezing it till she was unable to even turn
Compared to the previous days, the palace appeared to be busier. After she finished tidying up the room, Lena had to iron some of Alpha's work attire. She had cooked them dinner, and Alpha had departed early to attend to an urgent matter.Alpha's comment from the previous day kept repeating in her mind while she cleaned the room. She was no longer a phony Luna; she was back to being his slave to everyone. Although she would rather not be sent to the slave yard where she would be viewed as a slave, there is still something that annoys her. Why had he suddenly declared such a thing? Was she unaware of something that had happened?In order to avoid upsetting him, she did not ask and did not want to, so it would be best if she continued to have a limited perspective on everything going on in order for her to live a long time.She stumbled across the Mistress, who was leaning against the wall with her arms folded, as she came out of the room to dump the garbage. Evelyn broke out laughing a
With her mind clouded in several thoughts, she returned to the palace and was set to take a nap before the sunset. As she stepped her feet into the hallway that would lead to Alpha’s corridor, a stunning lady walked towards her with Mistress Evelyn standing at her side.She was so occupied with the thought of what Eowyn had just told her about Nathan that she didn't pay much attention to know who the person was. Does she have to care when she's just a slave? She held the doorknob and whined it, only for her hair to be yanked—drawing her backward.A wince of pain escaped her esophagus. Her eyes widened as she tried to suppress the pain that came from her scalp. “What is this all about?” she growled at whoever did that to her, followed by a thunderous slap that made her lose her stand.Mouth agape in shock, she lifted her face to see the woman standing before her….the one whom she had admired but didn't pay much attention to. “Greetings, but why would you bully me just on the first day
Echoes of laughter filled the corridor as Alpha Don and his Beta marched past. They were discussing what had transpired between two Mafia Consiglieres who were previously pals, and how they had disgraced themselves by arranging and failing to accept a business proposition from him.The room was f*cking chilly and empty as he unlocked the door and entered, as usual, expecting to see Lena nude. His gaze swept throughout the space, checking to make sure everything was well. “This is darn weird. My room has never been this way since Lena began staying with me…” he walked deeper into the room and pulled out his tie.When he heard a crack on the door, he exclaimed, "Elena!!!" but got no reaction. Turning around, he saw Bianca smiling and looking at him from behind. "Imagination once more? Bianca never told me she was coming…..” he gulped and faced his front."This is Bianca, your Majesty. Don't tell me you've forgotten about me already?” She inched her way toward him. "I apologize for faili
Bianca had instructed Lena to serve her while she was at the palace. She would not hesitate to tear her apart if doing so would not make her misery any worse. Her resentment was that great.She laid on the bed, looking at the ceiling, with Lena standing to the side, observing her. "Massage my leg till I fall asleep," she instructed Lena, who immediately proceeded to do so.Even heaven knows she is faithful for one reason: if she were simply another slave picked at random by the Don without a tragic history with him, she would have no reason to tolerate Bianca.Sniffling, Lena thought about her master. "Can he sleep without my presence? Will he be okay alone?" Tears welled up in her eyes. "I transformed him into a beast that barely sleeps, and now one of my punishments is to see him sleep soundly.""Will you do it well? What are you thinking about?” She snapped out of her reverie when Bianca shouted at her.In order to hide the tears from her eyes, she bowed her head. She misses her cr
The entire assembly of Pack authorities convened in the hall. Murmurs filled the air as they awaited the Alpha Don's arrival. Bianca was already in their midst, certain that the meeting was all about her.Everyone bowed as the Alpha entered and ascended to his throne. He cleared his throat and looked at the table where the reports were displayed, but it was empty. "Is there nothing we can discuss today?" his deep voice echoed in their ears.They exchanged a quick look before the Chief Minister appeared in front of them all. Whipping his throat, he bowed before the Alpha. "We shall talk about your rule today, Your Majesty; that is the purpose of our assembly.""What has my rule got to do with you?" He wore a long face. “Don't tell me, you all gathered here to remind me that I have to get Luna.”The Chief Minister nodded. "That is exactly why we are here. We think that prior to today, you must have decided who would be your Luna's crown bearer. Is it your slave?”Don clenched his jaw. W
CHAPTER 38 As Lena left, Alfred released a deep breath. He looked around to see the armed men almost close to him. He shook his head, “I'm not their priority. They can still leave me to live and go after her…” he looked at the direction Lena took. “We have to meet again, Lena. We didn't grow together, but I felt that bond. We have to live and spend time together…even if we won't have parents anymore.”His lips pulled apart slightly. He glanced around and found a heavy stone, which he grabbed.“They can't find me either. They won't find us. We don't have to lose each other after meeting again. My mother is also waiting for me.” he blinked, letting his tears roll down his cheeks.With all his might, he threw the stone to a distance, and it rolled over, going down deeper.He chuckled as the men felt that was the direction they took and headed towards the area. He slowly got to his feet and took the other way, heading to a destination he didn't know.When he felt he had walked enough and
CHAPTER 37 Alfred tapped Lena. He pulled her backwards, and they went back into the inner room. “This won't work! It's risky!!” he released a hot breath. “Look, let's just distract them. They are too huge to be fought. We will end up dead as they wish if we make any mistake…”Lena rolled her eyes. She felt so baffled that her body seemed to be on fire. Even though she wishes to die instead of Alfred, a part of her wants her to live for her son. She believes that someday, she will meet with her son and will even be welcomed back by the Don again.She sighed deeply and looked at Alfred. “So, how do you think we will distract them?”“Let's wait till they fall deep asleep. They can't cheat nature. They will certainly doze off at a time.” he suggested, and she nodded. “Do you think we will be able to get their boss’ medicine?”Lena shook her head. She had already thought about it several times and found no solution to that. “I believe he takes the treatment at the hospital, so whatever me
CHAPTER 36 Tyrion picked up the cigarette, looked at it, and dropped it on the floor. “It's a pity I won't have it again.” he shook his head pitifully. “I have to live, not for a few years, but for how long I wish.” he rubbed his finger on his lips. “Make sure they don't have a way to escape from there…..” The young man standing before him bowed to him. “It's already well protected—”He picked up the envelope on the floor and pulled out the letter in it. For the fifth time, he read it and burst into laughter that wasn't ordinary. “I found it the last day I stepped foot in her father's home. That day, I wept even as the man that I was and vowed to find her brother for her no matter what….but she disorganized everything and even found him herself….” he dropped the envelope on the floor and stood up.He had known that Lena had a lost brother but hid it because he planned to surprise her with her family, only to get stabbed by her master's mate that he also cared for.“If I had known th
CHAPTER 35 Elena was tossed into a little hut-like room. She groaned when her arm hit the floor, wincing silently in pain. Sending her hot saliva down her throat, she opened her eyes to see Beta Tyrion squatting before her—sending shivers down her spine.She gasped and shifted backwards, pointing her fingers at him. “Aren't you supposed to be dead? What are you doing here? Who was executed, if not you?” her voice was shaky. She was sure if Tyrion was impersonated, then he must have done all that just to deal with her like he promised.He grinned, tapping his index fingertip on the floor. “Ridiculous? “ he shook his head. “She seems astounded….” she stood up and gripped his jacket. “You fucking think I will have to die because of you? Why should I when I've been on my master's side before he met you….and then I will be the one to pass on because of you huh?”She bit her bottom lip. “Stop claiming to be the victim when you are the culprit—” she exhaled deeply. “If you didn't offend you
CHAPTER 34 “My feet are so damn bruised now…” Lena lifted her leg, seated on the floor, while checking her foot. She had pulled off her footwear when she found it difficult to run faster, but now, she was regretting it. “I will wait until it's healed before I continue…” she mumbled and positioned her bag to use it as a pillow, and then she laid down.Looking into the sky, she exhaled deeply, reminiscing on Alfred and how she had left without saying goodbye. However, she believed it was better, so they won't want to stop her or come after her. But then, one thing still baffles her—why he passed out when she touched her.She had never experienced such a thing before, and her wolf was saying nothing about it.“My baby—” she sniffled. “He must be crying now. I can hear his cries…” she blinked and turned over to lie on her side.She was already in the streets, but couldn't tell where exactly she was. It looked so calm, and people were barely walking around, or maybe she was still at the t
CHAPTER 33 Ten minutes later, a splash of water awoke Alfred. His eyes sprang open when he noticed he was lying on the floor. Gently, he sat up to meet his mother, who kept staring at him. She was stunned to see him lying on the floor after waiting for him to show up in the kitchen.Alfred wiped his face. “Mum!!” he swallowed softly, winking. “Where is Elena?”The elderly woman glanced around. “Shouldn't I be asking you?”He gazed at his mother's face. Something was odd about him. There's a feeling that had never ignited in him since he knew himself as a living being. “Are you okay? There are lots of customers to serve. How did you end up here?” she stood up, grasping her apron. “I was waiting for you but didn't see you, so I decided to serve them all before searching for you….”He made a long face. “Really? Are they more important to you than my whereabouts?” he forced himself to stand, dusting his clothes. “You didn't see me and wanted to serve your customers first. What if I was
CHAPTER 32 “Get the two bowls and serve them….” Alfred referred to Lena, who was stretching her hips. She had worked all day, serving people in the tavern owned by the family that had saved her. It's just a night, and she already felt at home.Each time she sets her eyes on the young man who had the same looks and birthmark as her, she feels there is another family left, but one thing still baffles her…..who was that guy exactly? Several times, she had inquired….but he insisted that they never met for once and he was part of the family that brought him in. His father was dead….he was just left with a mother and no siblings. To think of it, why doesn't he have the same looks as his mother? All those had haunted her throughout the night. She woke up several times at midnight and took a good look at the guy.Something was also weird about him. His mother was a human, and he was a werewolf—but a powerless wolf. He doesn't have a scent either. It seemed his wolf was suppressed and wasn'
CHAPTER 31 The sun was setting, and Lena was yet to leave the woods. She had walked throughout the night until she passed the border but had yet to enter the lively area of the next pack. She felt exhausted and sat under a tree, leaning on it to get some rest.She stared at the broad branches of the tree and scoffed. “I didn't even give my son a name. His father will now do that.” she was weak down to her feet, and she had nothing with her that would generate some energy for her.“I can get a wild fruit here—” she sat up and continued her journey, slowly searching for fruits that she would ingest to hold her for some time. Once she enters the lively part of the next pack, she would purchase food with the money she has.After a long walk, she was still unable to get a fruit within the space.Wiping her perspiration, she sat on the floor again. “I need just a little strength to enter the next pack—just a little one,” she murmured and landed with her back on the floor, placing her head
CHAPTER 30 One of the royal guards rushed to Alpha Dante the moment he alighted from his car. He shut the door and dipped the car key into his pocket. “Why are you panting?” his brows arched, gazing at the guard still.“Your Majesty, the maids seem to be fighting. The palace has been in a roar for about an hour now.” the guard narrated and lifted his head. “When I inquired what was going on, I was told that Mistress Evelyn had sneaked into the baby’s room and poisoned the meal….but unfortunately, she was caught by the new servant, Susan who had beaten her to a pulp.”Unexpectedly, Alpha burst into laughter. Now, he can tell why Lena wanted Susan inside the palace as one of her servants.He walked past the guard and entered the palace building, his palms dipped into his pockets. “Evelyn has always been cautious, but this time, she was reckless because her cup was full and was overflowing. I've had enough of them here…” he pondered as he walked straight into the hallway that connected
