I was taken aback by what he said.

Was he narcissistic? What made him think I still loved him?

It had been a month since I returned to this pack house, and I had never tried to speak with this man. Did he really believe I loved him?

"Are you even real? You are in the bubble where you think I still love you. A man like you doesn't even deserve to see my face."

My words infuriated him, and he glared at me. "You will go to Alora and say sorry to her. She is crying. Her entire body is itching, and it is all because of you."

I sneered back at him. "Sorry? My foot. I have already said that I will never try anything again. So, why are you targeting me? Your fiancée is plotting yet again against me. This time you are with her, aren't you?"

Zack did not listen to me as if he was deaf. He said,

"Before my mom arrives, you should give Alora a herb to relieve her allergies."

I could not believe what this man said. "Why don't you just go see a doctor? I am not a doctor."

    It seemed as though Zack was taken aback. He might have thought he could manipulate me. But I was no longer the old foolish girl. I would not let him take advantage of my hard work and keep using it for the rest of his life.His mother's health was none of my concern. She never liked me anyway.After giving Zack a warning,I left the pack house and went to meet my best friend, Kayla.In a restaurant, we were having a conversation with one another. We planned to have our dinner there."Flora, are they treating you well?" she asked me.I responded with a nod."That's a relief," she murmured.A news broadcast was playing on the television in the restaurant's center while we were talking.Everyone could hear and see the television.I was not interested in the news because I was enjoying dinner with my best friend. However, I suddenly heard a man mention someone, and the food stuck in my throat."King Aron Elliott has an eye for the Romero Group."Kayla quickly poured a glass of water and

    The following day, I was working on the project in my room, and I was very busy with it when a maid knocked on the door and entered the room."Alpha summoned you to his study room."I took a quick glance at the scattered files on my bed. I responded with a sigh and a nod.I did not realize how long I had been working on this project. My father expressed his desire for the alliance, so I had to do my best."Okay."The maid left the room. I slowly got up and only let out a hiss in pain in my back. Because I had been sitting for so long, my back was aching.I left my room and went to my father's study room. While heading toward the room, I cast a glance at Alora's room. The door was slightly opened. She was talking with someone on the phone."What are you saying? How can he think that?""Good that you have informed me. Yes, you will get your money in your account soon."I walked past her room, wondering who she was talking with. I ignored the thoughts as soon as I reached my father's stud

    I thought of Alpha William. I had seen him a few times at pack parties. He did not look like the gentleman that my father claimed.However, I exhaled and nodded my head. "Okay, Dad. I will attend the meeting."My father gave me an impressed grin. I turned around to leave and pushed open the door.With shuffling thought, I closed the door behind me. As I turned to my left, I noticed Zack standing there.I was stunned.He looked at me with a frown. "Delighted to hear from your father?" he asked.I gave him a puzzled expression. "What do you mean?"He stood a short distance away from me. Hearing him made me realize that he had heard my conversation with my father.He took a step toward me before coming to a stop two feet away."You must be overjoyed to finally have the project in your hands, right?"I folded my arms across my chest and inquired, "Why do you care?"He scoffed at me. "Of course you are satisfied. I have seen you work on it all day and night. It looks like you are well aware

    The day was sunny as I sat in the back seat of my father's car.That night, after mocking Alora, I realized I needed to avoid both of them. But she did not stop, instead going to my father and complaining about me.To my surprise, for the first time, my father, who loved her biological daughter the most, did not believe her. Instead of putting his trust in her, he called me to inquire about it.His question was still fresh in my mind."What is Alora saying, Flora?"That time I replied bluntly, "Dad, she isn't happy that I am working with you. Perhaps it is the reason she started doubting my intention toward her fiancé."My father said he would speak with Alora about it. From the maids, I got to learn that my father scolded Alora because of me.I was perplexed as to how my father had changed so suddenly. Did he realize how much he loved me when I was away from him?"Miss, the road is completely blocked. We need to make a U-turn and go in the opposite direction," the driver told me.I g

    My father was busy when I walked into his office. I discussed many things with him. I felt like he was fond of Alpha William.Because every single time I talked about the project, he kept telling me how responsible Alpha William was. He even mentioned that he wanted to invite his family to visit our pack.Someone knocked on the door as I was having a conversation with my father."Come in," my father said to the person outside the door.But he did not remove his attention from me. The door opened, and Zack entered the room.I shot him a sideways glance. He did not look in a good mood. I wondered if our company was having trouble in doing business."So what is your thought? Should I tell Alpha William to come to our pack this week with his parents?"Hearing my father's question, I smiled at him."Sure, Dad."Zack came up to stand next to my chair. I could see his fists tighten, which confused me."Alpha, what is the hurry?" Zack asked.I remembered that he did not want the alliance to be

    My brow furrowed as I heard Rachel. Before I could say something back to her, his son spoke out."Mom, you are overthinking. I was not with her. I just arrived home with her."Alora looked at Zack and gave him an upset expression. "Zack, she could have arrived alone. Why did you...""Alora, don't overreact. Your father instructed me to do so. Otherwise, I wouldn't have done that."I scoffed when I heard him. Wasn't he the one who told my father he would give me a ride?I couldn't help but give Zack a glare. "Oh, really?"When Zack heard me, he turned to me and scoffed."Flora, everyone knows you are still in love with me. Stop pretending."I raised my eyebrow, not surprised by his narcissism.Alora reached for Rachel's hand. Rachel gave her an assured look and said to Zack,"My son—"Zack stopped her as he approached her. He gave her a hug. "I am glad to see you here, Mom."Rachel patted his back. "How are you, Zack? I heard you are planning to marry Alora. You made the right decision

    "Flora, did you hurt Alora?"I knew Alora would complain to my father again. But this time I was prepared. I shook my head and looked at my father confidently."Dad, did she say that?"My father's gaze shifted to Alora and Zack, who were seated on another couch. We were inside my father's bedroom."D-Dad, I didn't mean that Sister did it intentionally. She was only..."I turned my head and raised my brows. "Stop beating around the bush, my dear Alora. Just tell Dad what happened yesterday when I got back to the pack house."Alora blinked as she turned her head to Zack.Zack looked gloomy. He wanted to keep his fake, proud face in front of my father and not let him know about the tonics. He was afraid that my father would start doing business with the tonics, and he would be humiliated for keeping such a big secret from him.Alora cleared her throat and said nervously, "Dad, it is all right. Let it go. Sister is right. She didn't do anything. I was careless, and my legs slipped."My fa

    The Glory Club was well-known because all of the wealthy people came here for business meetings or to spend time in private cabins with their friends.When we walked inside the club, I saw the average people who came here to have fun. The people who were dancing were drunk.Kayla held my hand as she walked towards the private cabins."Madeline said she reserved a cabin for her birthday party."I nodded as she led the way.I saw many cabins next to each other. Kayla came to a halt in front of a cabin and approached the waiter, who was passing by."Madeline Marcy?""This cabin, Miss," the waiter told us, opening the door.We thanked him before entering the cabin.I looked around and noticed people conversing with a woman in a dark blue dress. She was Madeline Marcy, the daughter of Alpha James."Madeline"Kayla called her name from beside me. Madeline turned her head and looked at us."Oh! Kayla!"She smiled at her. Her eyes shifted on me. Her smile became brighter. "Flora! It's been a

    I was dissatisfied. My father left the room after giving Zack a nod.As soon as he left, I glared at Zack. “I don't need your help.”Zack walked out of the room and came back with a maid.I frowned at him. “What are you doing? Where is Alora? Does she know you are here?”He scoffed at me and replied, “She is not at home. You don't need to think about her. Or do you want her to be here so that you can put the blame on her?"Did he think I was like her fiancée? It was her job to put everything on me, not mine.When he saw I was not responding to him, Zack turned to the maid and said,“She just woke up. Help her to get ready. I'm taking her to the hospital.”Zack then left the room. I glanced at the maid. She was one of Alora's maids."I don't need your help. I can do it myself."The maid crossed her arms and gave me a weird look. It was as if she was the daughter of the Alpha and I was her maid."Look, Flora. You lost your position, you know that. Now that Miss Alora is not home, you ar

    I managed to return to my bedroom while taking support from the railing and the wall.I could not move my right leg; I was limping.I did not know if I had broken a bone. What would I do then?The night was big, and I was waiting for dawn. The pain would not let me sleep. I was awake the whole night, waiting for the sun to rise so that I could go to the pack hospital for a check-up.I had no idea when my eyes closed. I opened my eyes as I heard a loud knock at the door."I fell asleep in pain," I muttered with a deep sigh.I tried to move my leg to get out of the bed. I was relieved when I found my right foot was not that heavy in pain like last night.I walked over to the door while limping and opened it.I saw my father standing there."Dad!"My father, Alpha Joshua, looked at me from head to toe."What happened to you, Flora? Why didn't you come down for breakfast?"His voice was soft and filled with worry. A sense of emotion blew into my mind. I was happy that my father was concer

    I stared at the closed door for a long time. The cold breeze touched my face as it blew inside the room through the window. It did not feel like how I felt when I was near the king, very close."What's wrong with me? Why do I start to feel like this toward him? Was it because he is the king?"I asked myself, trying to look for the answer.In the end, I could not reach a conclusion. I had no idea what he meant before leaving.Slowly getting up on my feet, I let out a deep breath.My legs deliberately moved toward the door. I opened the door and looked around, only to find an empty hallway.I walked out of the grand restaurant. When I got to the parking lot, I started to look for my father's car. But it seemed like his driver left after dropping me off.With a deep sigh, I hailed a taxi and headed back to the pack house.It took some time for me to get back to the pack house.As I entered the house, I saw a man sitting on the couch.I took a pause as I looked at him."Zack"He was drink

    The king's question caught me off guard. I immediately turned my head to look at him to deny the fact.However, when I turned my face, my nose brushed against his. For a brief moment, I found myself out of breath. The tip of his nose was cold, giving me goosebumps.I looked into his eyes with my wide eyes.The pair of dark eyes were mysterious. It was as if there were so many secrets hidden inside. It could be pleasant or painful, shocking or regrettable.I did not know how long I could keep looking at them, but I could not take my gaze away."Are you trying to find a new way to get close to me?"I was dumbfounded. A new way? When did I use a technique to get close to him? Everything was just a coincidence between us.Feeling that he was misunderstanding me, I immediately pushed him and moved away.Within a few seconds, I realized what I had done.I got up and turned around, then gasped. I slammed my palm against my mouth."Did I just push the Almighty king?" I muttered to myself."Wh

    I quickly moved my hand away. He glanced at my face with a pair of narrowed eyes as if he was observing my expression.I lowered my head while sitting beside him."Your Majesty, I heard you are eyeing land in our pack. You are welcome to ask our assistant," one of the men spoke out.The tension in the air eased a little as the man broke the silence. Others nodded their heads as they fully paid their attention to King Aron.'He is eyeing some land?' I thought, fixing my gaze on the floor.I was waiting to hear more. I wondered if the land was somehow related to my father's company."Do you think I need your assistance?" Aroan asked, sipping his drink.The man who had spoken out earlier felt nervous after hearing Aron. It was clear that there was no way they could turn the king's favor toward them until the king himself wanted it.The other man on the left couch cleared his throat. "Your Majesty, you know we are the legitimate businessmen to have your favor. If we get a chance, we will

    Aron's jaw tensed. His brows furrowed as if he was enraged. Anger flickered in his eyes.I was afraid he did not like how close we were.I could feel the intensity of his silent rage. The wind blew through the window, touching my face and brushing my hair against his face.He inhaled and closed his eyes then turned his face to the other side.It was as if the wind had mixed with my scent and entered his nostrils, and he seemed to dislike it.I felt embarrassed and quickly moved away."I—I am sorry, Your Majesty," I said in a very low tone.This time, others did not hear me. When they saw my reaction, they began laughing at me."Silly girl! She could not wait and fell straight to the King?"I wanted to just dig my own grave and bury myself. I had felt humiliated before, but this time felt different."You don't need to laugh. If your wives had been here, they would have done more than that."I froze when I heard King Aron's voice next to me. His words were dark and sarcastic. However, n

    "Your Majesty, please forgive her. She is naive," Alpha William said, drawing me closer to him.I blinked, looking down at William's hand. He held my arm tightly and whispered to me,"Apologize properly, Flora. He is the king capable of killing you here."I got chills just thinking about it. I shook my head, realizing that it was not true. The king would not kill me. He had rescued me several times."Alpha William, did you come here to sabotage our opportunity? We are here to greet the Alpha King. If you want to apologize, have your woman serve the king."Alpha William nodded as he heard one of the businessmen speak. He dragged me towards the couches."What are you doing?" I asked him.“Stay quiet.”He approached the couch where King Aron was sitting. I took a glance at Aron. He was looking at something with concentration. I followed his gaze and found him looking at William's hand, which was holding my arm.For some unknown reason, I did not want the king to misunderstand my connecti

    I did not know why, but just hearing about the king made my heart skip a beat.'The king? King Aron is here!'I turned my head, trying to locate him. But King Aron was nowhere to be found."Where is he?"I heard Alpha William asking his assistant about King Aron. I paid attention to their conversation."He is in the lounge area. I heard all the big heads of this pack are there to please him."Alpha William rose from the chair and said,"Great! We should go there to greet him."I stared at Alpha William. He seemed to be very excited to meet the Alpha King. Who would not be? Having the king here in the pack was a blessing for the Alphas. They were eager to form an alliance with him. An alliance with the Alpha King ensured that no one would dare to attack their companies."Flora, let's go and greet the king," Alpha William said to me.I was taken aback. He did not address me by my first name this time, which was surprising. But the main issue for me was that I would have to face the king

    "Why are you not sitting?"Hearing his question, I gave him a look and asked, "If you leave my hand, then I can sit, Mr. Bentley."He glanced at my hand and let out a chuckle. "Oh, yeah. You are right."He let go of my hand, and I quickly pulled it back. I sighed, fighting the urge to leave the restaurant.'I came here for the deal. So I have to deal with him,' I told myself.I sat down on the chair across from him. I noticed him motioning for the manager to leave. The manager gave him a nod as he left our table.My gaze remained fixed on him. He was Alpha William Bentley. He was his father's sole heir to run the company. According to what I learned about him, he was not very good at business. However, his father had built a big company, and he had become in charge of it. He had the resources that my father required for his business. It might be useful for our pack as well."Miss Flora, I heard you have been sick for the past few months. Are you alright now?"Alpha William's question
