LUCIENMy eyes skimmed though the desk, trying to make sense of the files on it. Where would I start sorting this mess from now? It’s so annoying that I still haven’t been able to sort out all the mess that had happened, and my brothers were actually not helping much.The cream coloured file that had the details of the North area. I calmly rose it up, trying to peruse through the file, when I heard a screech.That has never happened before. I shot out from the chair and looked around my office, but there was nothing out of the ordinary. With a growl, I made my way out of the office, only to collide with Nikolai.I cursed as we pulled back from each other. Raul was standing beside him, and he was looking quite amused as though we were comedians or something."Did you hear it?" I asked as I tried to focus on the sound I heard earlier.The two looked at each other, and shrugged. "What are you talking about?"I itched my hair as I looked down the hall, only for the sound to come again. Th
ANDREA"I think she is awake," I thought I could hear a voice that sounded dangerously like Nikolai in my mind.I tried to speak, but it was so hard to do so. So, I slowly opened my eyes instead. At first, it was hazy, but then, I could see the worried eyes of my mates. It was still so hard to tell them apart, but for some reason, I didn’t wish to. Two were on either side of my bed, holding my hands, which explained why I couldn’t move, while the other was standing, watching me. I knew at once that he was Lucien, thanks to his brooding attitude."I told you that she would be fine," the one in a cream-coloured shirt said as he held my right hand to his lips, pecking it a bit. I knew he was Raul. The fact that he had been the one giving his brothers moral boost floored me so hard, and I just wanted to thank him. No-one had ever been so worried about me before, and shown it in their mannerisms. Yes, it was not the first time I had been injured, but I know it was the first time I was i
ANDREA "Oh, Moon Goddess!" I mumbled as I sat up on the bed. The scent of bleach and medicine was high in the air. I placed a delicate hand against my mouth as I tried hard not to throw up right there. I suddenly heard the door creak open, and I calmly turned towards the sound. Lily came in carrying a fruit basket."Lily?" I called softly.She smiled lightly at me as she made her way to my direction. I tried to smile, but it was hard to do when it felt like my lips were cracking into two. It was one of the worst way to go about things."Gqreetings, Luna," she beamed. "Can I sit here?" She asked as she gestured to the bed.I gave a soft nod. "Yes, please make yourself comfortable."She did as she was told, and began bringing out diced bananas and chicken soup out of it. My taste buds flared up at once though the energy to eat was gone. I looked from to the food to Lily, and she looked completely at ease as she placed things in order."You didn't have to come here," I managed.She sh
NIKOLAI Since Raul got here thirty minutes ago, he had been talking nonstop, but that wasn’t what was making me antsy. It was the fact that I was feeling sidelined that caused it. The more I looked at Andrea, the more she was focused on my brothers and she wasn’t even sparing me a glance. "Ok, so what happened next?" She asked animatedly. Raul laughed. "The frog fell into the pot of onions and was used as a dish. Oh, Lucien ate it the most. He just couldn’t get enough of it." I rolled my eyes "That didn’t happen," I mumbled. Lucien turned to me and gave me a thumbs-up, then, they continued their conversation like I had not said anything at all. It was painful to me, but what could I do to make things change? My eyes flickered to Andrea, but she was so conscious of all the jokes that Raul was spilling and laughing so hard. It was so frustrating, but what could I do? "I will be back," I said simply and walked out of the room. Outside, the nurses were taking care of a handful o
ANDREANikolai squinted his eyes at me, and I noted he was blushing hard. I'm sure I was in the same spot as he was right now. But, still, I forced myself to look at him. I needed to know all the emotions that went through his face so I wouldn't misread anything."I don't get you, Luna," he said softly.I licked my lips slightly, "I'm sorry for acting like a snub the other day. It wasn't my intention, but still I had no idea what came over me, and I feel completely ashamed of myself. Other than being my mate, you're the third Alpha, and I should have known better. You may give me the strictest punishment in the book, and I wouldn't mind. But, if you forgive me, then, everything would make more sense again," I mumbled.He moved closer to me, and lifted his hand towards my face. I flinched a bit, thinking he wanted to hit me, but instead, he placed his hands delicately on my cheeks. His grey eyes were so soft as they peered into mine. "You want any punishment?" He teased."Yes," I mumb
LADY MEADEThe moon goddess knew I was literally going crazy with anger right now. I stormed into the pack house, moving directly to the private room I used to practice music from time to time. I hated Andrea so much, and that didn't start now. She didn't deserve to be with my brothers. She was a maid; a damn lowlife, and nothing more.With a groan, I moved over to the piano, removing the white case that covered it up. My fingers moved across the keys, but no sounds came from it."Greetings, Lady Meade," a voice called out.I frowned as I turned to the door, noting Valerie's presence right there. I honestly didn't need her company right now, and just want to be alone. It was not too much to ask, but still, I couldn't get that."You don't look pleased to see me," she observed.I scoffed as I looked back to the piano as my wolf tried to calm me down. I needed to calm down because I still needed this foolish girl to dance to my tunes. Let her believe that she was really winning in this a
ANDREA"I’m so glad that we are home now, Luna," Lily said as she took my things inside my room.I smiled as I made my way into the room. The moment Amelia and Lucinda noticed my presence, they jumped up from the floor, tossing the knitting pin and thread down on the floor, and ran over to my direction. The next thing I knew, they were both hugging me hard.We’ve not being in each other’s company for a long time, but the fact that they were already attached to me was something that made me feel better. I gulped in happiness as I calmly hugged them too. "Hey, you make me feel so emotional. I’m fine, already. You know I might not be the strongest in the pack, but my wolf genes tried a lot," I said softly as I tapped them both.They finally let go of me, and I looked at Lily, who looked like she was about to cry. It was the sweetest moment ever, and I just couldn’t help but smile at the way she reacted to everything. I really had the best girls to serve me, and I hoped with all my heart
LUCIAN"You need to see how Lucian reacted at the hospital just because he saw I and Andrea together. It was fucking insane, and rally childish. I don’t understand why anyone would be so grossed out for nothing. I just don’t get it at all, and the more I think about it, the more it annoys me so much," Nikolai complained as we walked towards the training centre.Raul laughed and I could feel his gaze on me, but I ignored them both. It was not needed for me to be too angry with them when they were all a bunch of fools. They literally didn’t care about my feelings, and that was so unfair. Who did things like this without thinking of the consequences of those actions?"I don’t know what is funnier, the fact that Lucien is letting you rant without defending himself, or the fact that you’ve said more than two words," Raul whined.I gave him my side glare, and he rose his hands in surrender. "I can’t help it, Lucien," he whined."Just...""Look at that," Nikolai said suddenly, causing us all
