Valeria POVWe were done with dinner, and I sat still waiting for the Adrain command. I looked at him from under my lashes, and he dropped his fork.“We were not aware of your arrival, so we did not prepare for your accommodation. The omegas are cleaning the guest room; in the meantime, you will stay on the 3rd floor. It is well cleaned, and your bags are there in the rooms waiting for you. The 3rd floor belongs to my Luna, and I am sure she doesn’t mind you temporarily staying there,” he said, and I felt eyes on me. But I was happier because I am closer to my mate, although I don’t know if he came for me or for the rogues.“The omegas would show you to the floor; please follow them,” he said.“Thank you, Alpha Adrain, for your accommodation and dinner,” my mate said, standing up. I looked up a bit as they all walked out, following the omega. Adrain folded his fist in anger, watching them as they left, and he waited for them to leave before talking.“I wonder why he is here; he has ne
Valeria POVI walk around the pack, smiling brightly. My life has been going perfectly ever since Damien came, which was about three weeks ago. Adrain has totally forgotten about me; he and Damien are more fixed on dealing with the rogues, but at night Damien makes special time to give his mate attention. I have never been so happy being in the arms of my mate, listening to him talk about all his experiences about being an Alpha son and taking his father’s spot. They all sounded like bedtime stories, and of course, what is a bedtime story without bedtime cuddles?Things are going well between us, but we are both avoiding asking each other the right questions. He is curious about what Adrain did to me and why I sometimes struggle to eat food. I know he wants to ask; he just doesn’t want to push me or make me overwhelmed. Honestly, I want to tell him, but I am scared of his reaction. What if he attacks Adrain? I don’t care about Adrain, but I don’t want any pack wars. I just want things
Valeria POV“Who’s getting on your nerves?” Damien asked, dragging me up softly. I smiled breathlessly. He is just so handsome, his milky skin glowing with sweat.“It’s just my sister and Adrain,” I mumbled, trying to calm my racing heart. I don’t know why my heart always races whenever I see him; I can’t control it.“I heard them,” he said. I looked at him, surprised.“How are you able to hear them from so far away?” I asked, shocked. It’s normal for Alpha’s to have enhanced abilities, especially if their parents are from a lineage of Alpha’s or Beta’s families. But he was too far from us to hear that. “Well, I will let you in on a little secret,” he said, smiling. My heart swooned as his dimples came to life, elevating his smile. Why would the moon goddess create such a masterpiece? And all for me? I am the luckiest wolf in the world. He got closer to me, and I was literally holding my breath. I felt hot. A sexy, half-naked man is standing so close to me.“I come from a generation
Valeria POV“How do you know how to make hair so perfectly?” I asked, smiling at the mirror. We were in the night, and Damien offered to wash and style my hair, and he is so good at it. The way he washed my hair was very gentle, scrubbing through my scalp. I was almost falling asleep in the bathroom, enjoying the soft massage.“My sister made me do it,” he said, a soft smile on his face. I smiled. I remembered Collin mentioning something about his sister in the ball.“It must be nice to have a younger sister who loves you back,” I said, remembering my ill-fated relationship with my younger sister.“Well, we had the best brother-sister relationship,” he said, a sour smile on his face. I noticed he used the past tense.“Had?” I asked, looking at how he made my hair.“Yes, she is dead now,” he replied. I looked up at him, and he looked a bit down. It’s obvious that his sister is a sour topic, and I had no idea how to comfort him. I didn’t grow up with many people around, so I don’t know
Valeria POVI slammed Ruby on the wall harshly, blocking air from passing through her lungs. I wanted to kill her; I wanted this night to be the last day she would live, and the last day she would ask me to do something so evil. How dare she, after all they did to me, ignore me and sell me off? She is asking me to run away. She wants to take over my identity. The only thing I have left that is mine—the audacity to do that! Ruby trashed around in my hand, her face turning red, but I squeezed harder, not caring how she scratched my hand.“That is enough,” I heard a voice say, holding my hand. But I didn’t listen; I squeezed harder.“You are going to get her killed,” Damien said, forcing my hand away from her neck. I growled, but he held me tight, moving me away from Ruby.“Calm down,” he whispered in my ears, hugging me tight, but I trashed his arms, angry and hurt. How dare she tell me that to my face? I have feelings too. Why should I bear the blame for something I have no control ove
Valeria POVA loud growl woke me up from my sleep. I jerked awake, looking around me, and nothing was happening. I heard another growl with things breaking, and it seemed the noise was coming from the down floor. Panicking, I come down from the bed, wearing my slippers. I ran out of my room, heading to the down floor. There was nobody on the stairs, and I was scared. Hoping is not what I think it is. I got to the bottom floor, and I gasped loudly at the whole place, which was messed up. The pack members stood away from the two Alphas’s fighting.“How dare you touch what is mine?” Adrian raged, punching my mate harshly in the jaw. I gasped, anger and fear rushing through my veins as my mate fell to the floor, bleeding out. Adrain wasn’t done; he had all the intention of killing my mate, and I wasn’t going to stand there and watch. Adrian raised his claw, going for my mate’s opened chest. But I ran to my mate, my body full of anger. I have no idea what happened, but Adrain flew into th
Valeria POVI sat down at the back of the seat with Damien, and we sat in silence. I was lost in my thoughts; I didn’t expect any of this to happen. Not that I am not happy I finally get to be with my mate; I just have so many questions. Was it all planned, or did some unfortunate things that happened work in his favour? “Hey,” Damien called, bringing me out of my thoughts. I looked up at him, and I was happy the blood was no longer on his face. He must have noticed how uncomfortable it made me, so he cleaned it, which I am grateful for. “I know you are very confused and have a lot of questions, but don’t worry; when we get to my pack, well fed and taking lots of rest, we will talk about it,” he said softly. I breathe out.“But how did you get so beaten up? I thought you were more powerful than him.” I asked. He chuckled.“It was all part of the plan, mate; I needed to get beaten up. Now don’t ask too many questions; you were woken up from your sleep too suddenly, and you are still
Valeria POV“Wow,” I mumbled, filled with excitement. We are finally in the main pack, and being shocked was an understatement. This looks like a mini-city with lots of buildings everywhere.“I mean, it’s better if the first thing we come into is the offices, businesses, and companies,” he said. I nod my head, agreeing with him. I always wondered how packs make their money, and this is just giving me insights. I mean, the buildings are not as tall as the ones I see in the movies; they are like 2- or 3-story buildings, and the roads are not fancy like the ones in the movies or have highways either. It’s like a small village with houses and companies, but this is more beautiful than that.The buildings are made of beautiful designs, and the houses are beautiful too. As Damien said, nobody was on the street, and I suddenly wished they were. It would be beautiful to see people walking down the street, going about their day. The car continued going, and slowly I started seeing more houses
