CULLEN

“Can you please prepare the guest room for her? And make sure to prepare her for the ball this evening.” I order a maid and walk away before giving Adira a chance to reject my offer.

I had come here to this pack because Richard’s father had requested to see me. My father was friends with Richard's father when he was alive. So when Richard had invited me for a meeting at his pack, I couldn't refuse even though I already knew what he wanted to tell me even before I arrived. His pack is about to fail. He needed my help.

But what I didn’t expect was to find my mate here. Just some days ago, the council held a meeting concerning this matter and had requested that I get married to a woman they chose for me. I had refused and it ended badly. I can't help but remember how that meeting went as my mind trails off to that day.

"Permit me to begin my Lord." Someone speaks up from the crowd. It was Adelel, the head sentinel of the royal clan.

I gesture to him with a nod, urging him to cont

    ADIRA"This way my lady." The maid whom I had come to know as Moira says to me as she leads the way, leaving me to trail after her. Cullen has handed me over to her to get me ready for an event this evening.She is an unfamiliar face, someone I have never seen before. I assume she is part of the Alpha king's entourage.Moira pushes open a door to a guest room and lets me wait a little bit. "I ran a bath for you and I also mixed some herbs and flowers that would help to relieve stress and keep you relaxed." She informs me as soon as she steps out of the bathroom after running me a bath. She treats me like I've become Luna.I have insisted on doing it myself but she blatantly refuses to let me do it so I have no choice but to let her.I wasn't used to people serving me. It feels strange to have someone, especially an older lady, do things for me, since I've always done everything myself. But I guess it's one of the perks that comes along with being in a fake relationship with the Alpha

    ADIRAThe maid scampers out of the bedroom leaving me to myself as I try to gather my thoughts collectively. On one hand, I'm afraid to see Cullen but on the other hand, I badly want to. I am curious about what he will say if he sees me and just thinking about it warms up my insides."Are you ready to go, my lady?" I heard the maid's voice from outside my bedroom and immediately put myself together."Yes, I'm coming." I respond and glance at the full length mirror for the last night. The maid escorts me as I walk out of my bedroom and make my way towards Cullen's bedroom where I will be meeting him.I arrive minutes after and nervously knock on his door. I am about to knock for the second time when a voice comes from inside."Come in." He orders. I suck in a deep breath before pushing the door open and making my way inside the dimly lit up room. His room is a delight and everything looks well put together. I can really tell that Richard put in a lot of effort to please him and make it

    ADIRA"How could he do this to me?" I mutter to myself as the whispers around me grow even louder around me. The attention that I have been struggling to avoid comes back to me when everyone shifts their focus to me.Some of them accuse me of stealing, some cuss at me for being an orphan while others suggest that my punishment be increased. What makes it even sadder is the fact that he wasn't feeling remorseful at all.He was the one who didn't believe me when I told him that I am innocent. He was also the one who wanted to give me to Alpha Conan as a sex slave. If Cullen hadn't stepped in to help me when he did then I can't even begin to imagine what would've happened to me. Wasn't that enough punishment for a crime that I never even committed in the first place?The incessant whispers make me even weaker. I feel humiliated and overly betrayed. And after everything that I have been through, he tossed me aside like garbage and didn't think twice before replacing me with Diane.Cullen

    ADIRA"Adira?" Cullen calls my name and I feel a flutter in my stomach. I love the way my name rolls out of his tongue. So sensual, so exotic, like a silent prayer waiting to be answered.His guards are surrounding him on both sides like a strong barricade that can't be broken even by a strong wolf. One of them steps forward to pull me away from him but she signals him to remain in his position and he readily agrees.Seeing this, I try to pull myself away from him in panic but his hands only tightens around my waist, caging me in. I gasp, a small moan escapes my lips at the contact between us.The tension between us is rigid just like the last time he touched me. His breath fans my face and a rush of electricity pulses through my bloodstream in a million shock waves.Why does he look so calm and coordinated while I am practically fighting for my life here. Am I the only one feeling this or was he just good at hiding his true feelings from everyone around him?"What's wrong?" He brings

    ADIRA"Is that that you don't want to dance with me or you can't dance with me?" Cullen asks and I rub my hands together nervously not knowing how to answer that question. It's not like I don't want to dance with him but I can't bring myself to. It's a secret that I have sworn to carry to my grave."Both." I say after a while. "I just can't dance with you and if it makes you feel any better then I also don't want to dance with you too."He looks at me surprised. "And why is that?""It's nothing important I promise you so you don't have to worry. You can find someone else to dance with you instead. I really don't mind." Why can't he just let it go? Why is he so persistent?He folds his arms across his chest. "Now, I'm worried and I won't stop asking until you tell me because I don't want to dance with anyone that's not you so you better spill."I swallow hard, my eyes lowered to the ground. "I don't want to dance because I can't. I don't know how to. That's it so you can go on and laug

    RICHARDI storm out of the banquet hall angrily and make my way to my chambers. The thought of seeing Adira smiling, laughing and being genuinely happy with Cullen just doesn't sit right with me. They were both joined at the hip throughout the entire party and it felt like an eyesore watching them have a great time.Adira was not supposed to be happy. She owes me her life and if anything, she should be miserable. She belongs to me and only I should be able to control her as I please and not the other way round.My heart is filled with rage and confusion. How dare she do this to me? How dare she try to seduce the Alpha king and try to get comfortable with him? I really want to demand an explanation from her but I can't.Cullen is always by her side ever since he took her from me and to make matters worse, he's very protective of her. I can't get close to her without going through him. I wonder what his deal is and why he is so keen with her. I wish I could figure out the reason behind

I have to see and talk to him as soon as possible. I can't waste any more time on this matter. It was urgent and has to be addressed as quickly as possible.If Richard can't do the needful then I'll make sure to handle it myself.

    ADIRA"Richard, W-What did you do to her? What have you done!" I scream at him, my voice breaking. "She's not breathing. We have to help her or she'll die. We have to do something.""And what makes you think that I'm interested in helping her or anyone for that matter?" He growls angrily at me without mincing words.I push myself away from her body and slowly start to pull myself away when he stalks towards me steadily."Stay away from me Richard. Don't come any closer." I warn him sternly. "If you don't stay away then I'm going to scream at the top of my voice.""Go ahead Adira. Go ahead and scream, I dare you." He encourages me, a smirk playing on his lips. "Do you think anyone in this pack will come to your rescue if you scream? They all hate you and want nothing more but to see you dead so none of them will help you.""Or what did you think? That your new man will hear your voice and try to save you like he did last time? Well I'm sorry to disappoint you but he can't and he won't
