Walking through the door of her dressing room as though she was sneaking out, she had a black, flay, lace, short sleeve gown which stopped immediately below her knee, and a black pair of heels on.

Her hair was left to cascade down her shoulders and back while some were left to fall over her face.

She rested on the wall after walking out as though she was sneaking before placing her hands on her lips in thoughts.

'What is a state dinner anyway? Don't people like prince of England go there? Will there be dancing? Dancing?' She gasped.

'I can't dance. Oh, no' she clapped her hands and placed them over her mouth as she began panicking.

'Will there be the waltz?' she walked out to the sitting room while holding her gown and began dancing.

She turned, stretched her legs forward as she began humming while turning and moving forward, with her hands suspended in the air, and the sound of her shoes tapping on the floor echoed as she kept humming.

She then stopped and crouch down a little as she

He asked the guard as he walked in, while she tried spreading the duvet properly."She was sleeping and fell off the bed," the guard replied."Are you alright?" Alpha Alvin turned to her and asked, and she immediately nodded in embarrassment."Okay, you may go," he said to his guards who immediately left and went back to their standing spot.She sat on the bed with a slight awkward smile on her face, and he also sat beside her."Why did you fall off the bed?" He asked as he stared at her."I was just dreaming," she said and laughed awkwardly which made a smile appear on his face."Wh

    Annabelle's illness has started becoming obvious lately, as she easily faints when walking, throws up every time she eats, and almost fell down the stairs if not for the quick intervention of the guards.She would sit all alone in her room and cry when she couldn't take the pains anymore as she felt as though she would die any minute.When Alpha Alvin was told by the guards on how she has been fainting lately, he had offered to call a doctor, but she had panicked and pleaded with him that she was okay as she told him that whatever happens to her, he shouldn't call a doctor neither take her to any health center or hospital.She could have just contacted the doctor she had met in the hospital, but is was too dangerous, and since there were CCTV cameras all over the penthouse, they could hear her conversation with him.And besides, she didn't request for his contact, so how would she be able to communicate with him?She was getting pale and needed drugs to sustain herself for sometime.P

    Telling the guard who drove her out of the penthouse to stop the car, she alighted down before closing the door and waving at the driver as the car zoomed off.Taking in a deep breath, she began walking away as she looked around.Everywhere was neat and looked luxurious as though everyone that lived there was wealthy.Some people carried on with their morning business as everyone was busy doing one thing or the other.She kept waking and looking around in search of a hospital.She squeaked happily when she saw a hospital, and quickly ran into it as she had the urge of being watched by someone.After waiting in the hospital for some time, she was then called into the emergency room where she could meet with the doctor."Good day sir," she greeted as she walked into his office."Good day miss, you may have your seat."The doctor offered her a seat and she sat while staring around, but noticed how strangely the doctor was staring at her."Due to the result of the test which was carried o

    Alpha Alvin was in a hall as he addressed some wealthy politicians, when his PA mind linked him that Luna was missing, and a search was going on for her.Without saying a word to his PA, he continued addressing his audience, and when he finished, he walked out of the magnificent hotel, before walking into his car with his hands placed into his pockets.The ringing of his phone made him look down at it, but didn't pick it up as he left it to ring until it stopped.With a sigh, he alighted down the car and walked into an elevator as he repeatedly tapped his hands on the screen of his phone.Walking into the house, he noticed how tensed everywhere was, but he didn't say a word to anyone and just walked into his room as he changed from his suit and wore a simple black pant and black shirt which had a split behind it, before he walked towards his bed and slumped on it as he drifted into sleep.*The voices of people whispering made him flutter his eyes open, and turn to his two bodyguards

    The sight of Alpha Alvin drenched in the rain with his back resting on a tree trunk, his hands placed into the pockets of his pant and legs crossed made her heart skip in embarrassment and she immediately hid her face away from him.She listened to the sounds of dry tree leaves crushing beneath his feet as he strode towards her.She was embarrassed because he had been hearing all she was saying about him.He squatted before her and used his left hands to raise up her head as he cleaned her tears from her face while staring at her with a slight smile on his face."I didn't leave you Annabelle, I wouldn't ever do that," he said and watched as she averted her gaze to him."But you already did," she said with a sad expression on her face."I didn't, Annabelle, I've been with you all this while, but you didn't see me," he said as he caressed her face."But you drove away with the car." She had a confused look on her face as she stared at him.The rain made strands of his golden hair fall

    It has been a week since Annabelle visited the hospital and was scolded by Alpha Alvin.She had secretly been taking her medications, and the only thing she did was to either watch the TV in her room or attend a lesson in the penthouse where she would be taught how to behave like a wealthy lady (a Luna).Alpha Alvin hadn't been around as he had been frequently travelling out of the state and country.They haven't really spoken after the last misunderstanding they had.Well, it wasn't really a misunderstanding as Alpha Alvin had noticed how she behaved as though she was hiding something critical.He had also had the gut feeling that she was hiding something from him.*Rested on the railings of the rooftop, Annabelle stared into space with a glass cup and her little packet of pills in her hands as she meditated on her life, unknown to her that someone had also walked into the rooftop.The sound of someone's footsteps approaching her slowly made her turn abruptly and quickly hide her pa

    She tried crawling away, but he pulled her back and hovered over her, before pulling her towards him as he kissed her, but she pulled away from the kiss almost immediately."Alvin, please let me go, I'm sorry for sneaking into your room," she pleaded as she was totally covered in fear, but he shushed her before slowly kissing her lips as he used his legs to part hers gradually, which made her pull away from the kiss as she stared vulnerably at him, and tried pushing him off her but couldn't."Annabelle!" He called sternly which made her stop struggling as she stared at him with tears in her eyes.With his gaze locked on her, he strolled her hands through her v part, as she had her pyjamas pant on, and chills of pleasure ran down her spine, with only one thing in her mind 'It's finished.'But all of a sudden, he rolled away from her and laid on the bed as he bursted out with laughter.She immediately shifted away from him as she covered her dress properly, but he shifted close with a c

She glanced around, searching for any sign of understanding in the eyes of those present.It was then that she locked eyes with Alpha Chul, her partner in this complicated journey. He was the only one who caught on to her confusion, his perceptive gaze seeing beyond the surface.A sly smirk slowly graced Chul's lips, understanding passing between them.

    As his canines grew long and sharp, Chul bit into the in-between of Lilith's neck and shoulder, causing her to wince in pain and cry out. He licked away the blood from the bite mark before tenderly placing soothing kisses on her, trying to comfort her as she cried against his shoulder. However, she suddenly pulled away from him, pushing him away forcefully."I fucking hate you," she cried, her hands covering the bitten area as she continued to feel the pain."I'm sorry. Let me help you soothe the pain," Chul offered, genuinely concerned for her well-being. However, Lilith immediately stopped him from approaching her."I don't need your help," she said, her voice filled with anger and hurt. She tried to retrieve her rolling travel box from him, but as her hand brushed against his, she quickly pulled back, feeling a rush of spark between them."What's wrong with your hands?" she asked, her gaze fixated on his, her tone a mix of curiosity and confusion. She managed to snatch her box aw

    Xavier could now see the similarities that he never saw in Lilith before. She looked more matured, and he noticed a certain beauty about her that seemed to be a combination of her own and someone else's. As he watched her, she placed the brush on the counter and ran her hands across its surface with a sad expression on her face. She then turned away from the mirror, picked up her rollable traveling box, and began walking out of the room.From the reflection in her mirror, Lilith had caught sight of Chul seated in her room, but she pretended as though she didn't see him. She avoided his piercing gaze and hurriedly moved toward the door. However, before she could open it and escape, he stopped her by placing his hands on hers, which were on the doorknob. This action made her freeze, her shoulders tensing up.Slowly, Xavier removed her hands from the doorknob and took her rolling bags from her. He gently made her turn toward him, but she kept her gaze fixed on the floor, avoiding his ey

    Alpha Chul kept staring blurrily at Lilith's already dilated pupils."But your eyes... they are in shades of golden colors. Or are my eyes deceiving me because I'm about to die?" he asked weakly, his voice barely audible. His gaze remained fixed on her eyes, though they appeared blurry to him.Lilith's heart ached as she heard his feeble words. She knew time was running out, and the urgency in his voice only intensified her fear. "You need to leave, Lilith. I've mind linked the warriors, and they will come for you," he urged, his gaze locked on her dilated pupils. Slowly, his eyelids closed, sealing his vision in darkness.Tears welled up in Lilith's eyes as she cried out, "Alvin, please don't leave me!" Determined not to let him go without a fight, she hastily removed his shirt, tossing it aside, as if shedding the weight of their impending doom.As her gaze fell upon his bare torso, a gasp escaped her lips. It was a sight that tore at her soul—his flesh marred by numerous bullet wo

The sight of the violent conflict unfolding before her eyes overwhelmed her with a sense of terror.However, a surge of determination coursed through Lilith's veins as she recalled her promise to protect Alpha Chul.

She found a strategic position, ensuring she had a clear line of sight. Taking a moment to steady her trembling hands, she focused on her task at hand.As she

    Alpha Alvin walked into the gym room where the warriors were preparing for the war."If you're going to war, Lilith, you need to know how to defend yourself because I'll be at the battlefront and I can't take you there with me," Alpha Chul stated, his voice filled with concern as he walked around her. They stood in the spacious gym room where the warriors were preparing for the upcoming battle.Lilith shrugged, a hint of determination in her eyes. "I can defend myself, don't worry."He arched an eyebrow. "And how do you plan to defend yourself?""I can shoot arrows. I saw it in her memory, and I have a strong feeling that I can do it," she replied confidently.Alpha Chul motioned for one of the warriors to bring him a bow and arrow. The warrior promptly fetched the requested items and handed them to him."Alright, Lilith. See that target over there? If you can propel the arrow and hit the bullseye, then you can come with us," he explained, placing the arrows in her hands before steppi

    Alpha Chul crouched to the floor as he felt a sudden pain in his heart, as though an important element in his life was about to leave."Annabelle, please don't leave me. Lilith, come and hug me now. Annabelle is about to go away from my heart... go away from there so you wouldn't get pulled in," Chul pleaded, his voice filled with desperation. He saw tears streaming down Lilith's face, and his instinct was to run to her, but in her attempt to reach him, her footing slipped on the edge of the cliff, causing her to fall backward.A surge of panic filled Lilith as she plummeted, but she managed to grab hold of a stone jutting out from the cliff's edge. Hanging on for dear life, she heard Chul's voice calling out her name as he peered down the cliff."I can't hold on for too long. I have no idea why I want to live now," she yelled, her voice trembling with fear."Take my hand," Chul offered, extending his hand toward her. As soon as she grasped his hand, a flood of memories rushed throug

    Lilith woke from her sleep, her eyes fluttering open. She felt a lingering sensation, a memory that seemed vivid yet out of place. Her heart raced with confusion as she glanced around her room, realizing that she was alone."Was that my memory?" she pondered silently, her voice laced with uncertainty. The image of Alpha Chul, her mate, laying on her with her long hair caressing his face, had been so clear. But now, in the emptiness of her room, it could only mean that it had been a dream.Tears welled up in her eyes, and her voice cracked with a broken heart. "Was it all just a dream?" she murmured, her disappointment washing over her. The memory had felt so real, so intimate, and now it was ripped away from her.Frustration surged through her, overwhelming her senses. She yelled in anguish, throwing her cushion aside and succumbing to a torrent of tears. The weight of confusion and longing pressed upon her, intensifying the pain she felt.As she rose from her bed, voices began to ech

However, her frantic escape came to an abrupt halt as she sensed the presence of the ghostly figures standing before her. Panic washed over her, and before she could gather her thoughts, she instinctively turned away, only to sense another presence behind her. Overwhelmed by fear and unable to think clearly, she dashed towards the nearest door she saw, desperately locking it behind her.Meanwhile, Alpha Chul sat in his room, drowning his sorrows in liquor while memories of his past with his deceased mate consumed his thoughts. After witnessing Lilith's terrified reaction in the woods, he became convinced that she had encountered a ghost.
