Lorena POV While thinking deeply about Fenrir's question, I remembered when I was ten years old and both my parents were still alive. Our neighbors too and my best friend at that time had a family gathering. It was more like a family game night and the last fun I ever had in my entire life. After my mother and my best friend's mother finished preparing the meals we were supposed to eat, we sat at our feeble chairs and shaky tables. It was old and made from broken furniture gotten from the werewolf carpentry home. It was hard to get it, but my father snuggled it from them and made furniture out of it. It took him a month before he could gather all materials for the table and chair and it took him five months before he could create a great piece of furniture. While we were eating, Daphne talked about becoming a great physician when she grows up and that was where the discussion started. "I would like to help those that are sick, especially the humans, and treat all of them," she spok
Fenrir POV I had my reasons for asking that question. I wanted to know how Lorena was going to answer that question. Maybe it was going to be based on her emotions or head. I wanted to understand how she was feeling at that moment and how she would react if a situation arises when she had to choose between the werewolves and the humans. ‘’I shall give you all five minutes to come up with great answers. This answer shall give you more points than the rest of the questions,’’ I told them and saw a flash of surprise on Lorena. She looked like she never expected that I would ask such questions. ‘’I am sorry it has come to this, ’I muttered under my breath and walked back to my seat. Once I was seated, I raised my head and looked toward her. I realized that she was also staring back at me. there was this frown on her face and it made me shudder. If a look could kill then I would be long dead with the way Lorena does stare at me. ‘’don’t hate me,’’ I whispered to myself. After we both st
Lorena POV I was seething with anger when I sat down. How dare she speaks like an ingrate who has no regard for her people. It was people like her who are the reasons why life turned out to be the way it is. “With your nonchalant attitude, you don’t deserve to be called a human!’’ I shouted at her. “Why the hell are you in my business?’’ she asked. ‘’whatever happens with me is none of your business and you don’t deserve to question me because it is not your turn yet and you are not the one asking questions so you have no right to judge me like that!’’ she yelled back at me. I have no right she said, I scoffed when I thought about her foolishness and the things she was doing. If it not for the sake of everyone seated there at that moment, I would have stabbed her in the face until she goes blind. ‘’ungrateful human!’’ I didn’t back down and stood up from where I sat. ‘’you have no idea what people have to go through because of the werewolves. It's so sad to see you acting this way
Fenrir POV ‘’Great,’’ I said to Romeo after getting the information that I needed from him. It was all a plan to remove Lorena from the position of the noble consort because she was in the way of possible assassination but she doesn’t realize and I could see the shock in her eyes when I announced that she was out of the contestant. I could feel the heat radiating from her when I announced to her that she was out. ‘’make sure you protect her at all times, Romeo. The assassin would soon attack and by that time, maybe you wouldn’t find out about it.’’ ‘’Alright, your highness,’’ he said and lowered his head. As he turned to leave the office, I heard someone shouting at the entrance of the office, and no one needed to tell me that it was Lorena.‘’I will go check it out,’’ Romeo said and I nodded in response. ‘’let her in,’’ I told him and he answered with a nod. As he walked towards the entrance, I adjusted myself to my seat. When I heard the door opening, I cleared my throat. ‘’I mu
Lorena POVMy heart bled as I walked out of Fenrir’s office. It felt as if my heart was getting rejected and it would sound petty if I admitted that I fell for his charms and empty promises. I shouldn’t have believed a werewolf, at that a werewolf king who only sees me as prey. I should have known better. As I walked down the hallways, I covered my eyes to hide my pain and I knew that those around me would understand that I was not in the mood to say anything yet. My heart was bleeding and I don’t know when it was going to heal. ‘’I shouldn’t have let him into my heart,’’ I was deep in my thought that I had no idea that I had collided with someone. The strong cologne from the person made me raise my head and I burst into more tears when I realized that it was lord Alistair. ''hey,'' I heard him say. ‘’I am so sorry,’’ I quickly wiped my face in order not to look weak in front of him. ‘’I should probably leave,’’ I muttered and turned to leave but he grabbed my hand and pulled me bac
Fenrir POV ‘’We are all gathered for the burial of the late concubine Danielle of the alpha king. She had died untimely and she is hereby laid to rest in the ways of the werewolves,’’ I stood in a corner with Romeo as they laid Danielle to rest. I refused to show myself to anyone because it was against the tradition especially since she was a concubine. Showing up at her burial shows that she was being disrespectful to me even in her death. To make sure she had a great rest, I buried her in the werewolf's way rather than the humans’ way where she would be buried as a no-name human. The question that baffles my mind was on who could have killed Danielle and made her die so suddenly. Her annoying voice resounded in my head as she was laid six feet under the ground. Her death was shocking for even me who was a werewolf king. Who could have killed her and why? Danielle was free-spirited even though I hated her guts. She was not the type to get in trouble, unlike Lorena who loves to run
Lorena POV My eyes fluttered open to a bright light that almost blinded me. I looked around me and noticed that I was at the royal hospital. I tried to lift my hands and surprisingly I could lift them rubbed my eyes and looked around yet again hoping to see someone that I know but there was no one around and everywhere was silent. I tried to figure out how I got there and I suddenly remembered that I had heard about Danielle getting killed and in that process, I had also fainted. I had no idea why anyone would want to kill her. Although I hated her guts for everything she had done to me still I wouldn't want her to die just yet. I couldn't believe that someone like her had to suffer an unfortunate death. While thinking about her, I tried to get out of bed hoping that I would see a sign of Fenrir but suddenly, the light went off. "Hello," I shouted. "Who is there?" I asked as I tried to get out of bed. Because it was pitch black, I couldn't see anything at all. I heaved a deep sigh
Fenrir POV When we reached the hospital, I ran without waiting to hear what Romeo had to say to me. While running, I thought about what would happen if the assailant catch up to Lorena. would she die just like Danielle or survived? I had to make sure that she didn't die because of me. ''I feel like spilling a lot of blood,'' Draca whispered in my head. when I reached the hallways where lorena was, I could unusually hear her heartbeat beating, I knew that something had happened. when I reached the front of the door, I kicked it up and was meant with darkness. I moved into the room and placed my hand on the walls. it found the switch and in a blink of an eye, I turned on the light I saw red when I looked to my right and saw the attacker holding lorena down. when he noticed that I was in the room with him, he didn't turn but run and jumped through the window before I could reach them. ''Bastard,'' I tried to move closer to the window but Lorena grabbed my hand. ''Fenrir,'' she said a
