(Migumi's POV)“We should go, Migumi. I’ll just update once she comes out. I’ll talk to her myself,” Prince Aiden convinced me but I didn't respond.We have been standing here outside the room in the attic where I found Tara and Prince Anthony doing their thing. They haven't come out from the room yet and it seemed like they didn't continue their sexual activity either because we don't hear sounds of moaning.I am not convinced, however, that whatever they're doing inside was agreed upon by both parties. The frightened expression on my friend’s face tells me a lot of stories. I have to know what really happened.They should be out by this time. Why does it seem like Prince Anthony is hiding her from us?“You haven't eaten dinner,” he reminded me. I pretended to not hear him and remained standing outside the door.I’m not certain but the cold breeze coming through the slightly open window from the attic tells me that it’s already midnight. It’s probably around 3 o'clock in the morning
(Migumi's POV)Aiden brought me to a nearby Tea House. It is already 4 o'clock in the morning and the cold breeze of the air is starting to make me shudder.The expensive white gown I’m wearing doesn't really help with warming my body at all.Fortunately, the prince gave me his blazer, making me feel warm. He also wanted to calm me down with a cup of tea, that's why he brought me here.He hasn't asked me about what happened yet.I don't really seem to be in a good situation to talk about it. I’m still overthinking my mistakes. I don't even know if I could ever win over my guilt.It didn't take long before I heard his heavy footsteps approaching. I lifted my head to greet him. In his hands are two cups of smoking hot tea. He put them on our table carefully. “Have some of this chamomile tea. It’s known for its calming effects,” he said.I wrapped my ice cold hands around the warm tea cup. I could see steam coming out of my mouth as I exhaled. It seemed to be colder here in the capital.
(Migumi's POV)Tara approaches us with a smile on her face. I happily faced her, trying my best to hide my previous embarrassment from last time. I don't want to make our friendship awkward because of that.It’s just a pure misunderstanding.“You look wonderful,” I complimented her green dress. She looks elegant and sophisticated in it. Her messy hair from the last time I saw her is now neatly tied into a bun with a cute ribbon.Tara gave me a faint smile. “You too,” she replied briefly.She glanced at the guy standing beside me who currently has his arms wrapped around my waist. She gave him a small smile as well.“May I borrow her for a moment?” she asked.Aiden and I glanced at each other.He’s still worried about my impending transformation but since it is already Tara who is asking a minute with me, he just nodded and smiled. He knows that I am also worried for my friend. It’s a good time to apologize for my wrong understanding of her relationship with Prince Anthony, too.“Let m
(Migumi's POV)It must be the champagne that’s causing this insatiable heat in my body. I find myself doing things I wouldn't do normally.For instance, tearing his clothes.“Woah! Woah! Easy there. Hahaha!” he chuckled with both of his arms raised in the air. I looked at him hungrily like I wanted to eat him. “You're so wild…”Me? Wild?I have to say that that is the first I have ever heard someone say that to me.People usually describe me as sweet and gentle.I put my naughty hands on his hard chest, feeling his heartbeat on my palm. I looked straight into his eyes as I felt the heat of my body increasing every second.Why does he look so hot tonight?“Show me BDSM…” I begged him like a puppy. He smiled sweetly. I sucked his finger when he put it in the corner of my lips.He has not undressed me yet. I’m starting to feel impatient. I just want him to fuck me now.Isn't that what BDSM is about?“Are you sure about that?” he asked teasingly as if to make me beg for more.I wrapped my
(Migumi's POV)I woke up to the sound of rustling leaves. I hear birds chirping. I hear water flowing somewhere.I opened my eyes, noticing that I was laying on a bed of moss. The damp earth pressing against my cheek. I scanned my eyes at the tall trees surrounding me. Their thick branches not allowing the ray of the sun to shine through directly to my face.Where am I?Where is Aiden?I sat up, my head spinning. The memory of last night, the clawing of the sheets, the slapping of the skin, the loud moaning, all came flooding back. I was making love with Aiden, and then… nothing.I scrambled to my feet, my legs shaky. I stumbled towards the sound of rushing water.Where is this place? Did Aiden take me somewhere without my knowledge?As I reached the edge of the clearing, I gasped.“What…” I muttered confusedly.A river, wide and swift, flowed before me, its surface reflecting the azure sky. But it wasn't the sky that caught my eye. It was the reflection staring back at me.My own ref
(Migumi's POV)My screams filled the four corners of the room, my heart beating frantically as I tried to calm myself from the intense pain that was starting to take over my entire body. I have never felt this kind of pain before.I knew that the transformation process would break my bones, and possibly destroy my whole being, but I didn't expect this power to surge through me like a dangerous acid melting my bones and tissue.I couldn't even do anything.All I could do was just let it spread through my body while I try my best to pull myself together and not be torn together with the internal impact.My eyes, wide and luminous, met Aiden’s. The look of mixed worry and confusion on his face caused a sharp pain in my heart.“Aiden…” I whispered, my voice strained, "I... I'm about to transform. Please, stay away from me. I might..." My voice trailed off, the fear in my eyes mirroring the turmoil within.He reached out to me with a face masked of concern, his hand hovering just above my
(Aiden's POV)The scent of woodsmoke filled the four corners of the room where Migumi is currently resting. I decided to light up a fire in the chimney when I noticed her fever getting worse.I knew that this day would come.I mentally prepared myself for Migumi’s transformation, for the moment when the wolf within her would finally break free. I have even witnessed the transformation process of my own pack mates, but it seemed like nothing could have prepared me for the day where I’d see my mate screaming in pain and agony.If only I could take my share in the pain she’s suffering right now.Her usually bright eyes that were filled with mischief are now squeezed and shut. Her teeth clenched so tightly that her jaw was taut. Her hands, normally graceful and sure, were balled into fists, holding tightly to the blanket I used to cover her body.“Migumi…” I whispered softly to the silent night. “Don't worry. Help is coming. Just hold on, hmm? You can do it. I know you're strong.”When I
(Migumi's POV)I gasped for breath, my eyes opening with visible horror inside. I immediately scanned the place where I illogically transferred into.I remember losing consciousness from the pain and the next time I opened my eyes is I’m already here.A wave of dizziness is forcing me to fall on the ground once again, but a strange, insistent warmth pulsed through me. I felt the need to go to the heart of the forest to find something… enigmatic.I blinked to fix my blurry vision and that's when the world became clearer, showing me its breathtaking beauty.“Where am I?” I mumbled to myself.This forest is familiar.I feel like I’ve been here before.I lifted my head to look at the towering trees that are currently bathing in the ethereal glow of the moonlight, their branches reaching out for the stars like long fingers. I hear the wind rustling the leaves, whispering ancient secrets that only the forest could understand.“A… Aiden?” I tried to call for his name despite knowing the fact
