Lucy's POV I furrowed my brows. “Are you already giving a negative view about my visiting them?” I disliked that he made his mind think such a thing, I wanted him to be more optimistic. “But I know my parents way better than you. They are perfectionists. You can't please them in a day of knowing yourselves.” I was going to retort, defending myself when he pulled me by my wrist, making me follow him. I looked for another excuse to tell him as I was already getting nervous and so self-conscious of his parents’ reaction. Eric would soon be Alpha and if I'm going to be his wife, I'd be his Luna, so it's certain they would have very high expectations for whoever would be by his side. “I'm gonna be late for school, you know you already gave me tasks as punishment, I don't want to add another for missing classes.” I complained, hoping he would spare me seeing his parents so soon. “But I've already told them you're coming with me. So there's nothing that can be done,” he firmly said. I g
Lucy's POV They gasped, spreading their lips wide apart. His mom pulled off the glasses she wore just now in her eyes. “What?” Their lips formed in unison. “Yes,” Eric affirmed. “Mom, dad, you don't even stay in the palace to know what's going on.” His voice grew higher as he was pained by how his parents treated me. “Haven't you seen that her kids all have the same faces as me?” I wanted to laugh seeing the confusion on their faces but I held my laughter, composing myself and pretending to be very serious. I didn't want to complicate issues but so far Eric was savage. It was so unlikely to claim being a perfectionist and yet can't detect three kids in the estate who share the same face like your son. They were Eric’s parents and even though people in the pack didn't really know how he looked since he left the pack in his pre-teenage years for abroad, they knew his current looks. This, being that they got to visit him in the Academy at least once every month. Their faces were sl
Lucy's POV “Well, mom, dad!” Eric stood up, pulling me up with him. “If you think that I'll accept another woman as my mate and wife apart from Lucy, then you're in an illusion.” “Nothing you would ever do would make me get into an arranged marriage.” He said with firmness. “But Eric, we need this girl to stand on a better relationship with the Alpha King.” My heart dropped hearing this. Did they mean she's the daughter of the Alpha King? How can I contest with the daughter of the Alpha King? I thought that Eric was going to take me to school to speak for me, just to prevent me from getting punished. I looked at the time and it was 9:30 AM when I was supposed to be in school between 8 AM to 8:30 AM as of today. “Wouldn't you be taking me to school, sure you'll be in the office today?” I asked, when I didn't hear him say something about coming with me. “Lucy, I'm sorry but I'm not in the right frame of mind to be at the office. I'd rather stay in my office here in the estate and
Lucy's POV “Why would you dare to disturb my class when I've told you what to do?” He dragged me off the theater, throwing me to the field which was close to the theater. In a swift, he took out the horse whip which I didn't see until now. My lips sprang wide in shock. “What do you think you're–” A whip of the belt landed across my back making me itch in pain. “--trying to do?” The remaining words in my mouth came out in tears. Fred was young, but really muscular, he had a commanding figure, fierce eyes and a powerful aura. He was known never to have been defeated before in a fight, perhaps that's why everyone feared him. I couldn't stop panting, shaking in fear as he lifted his hand to give me another whip from the belt. I knew it would break me but I couldn't do anything to stop me. My mind began to blame Eric for causing me this and not coming to defend me. When a powerful yet familiar scent hit my nose, I froze in shock. I could feel my wolf growl in excitement. I turned. It
Lucy's POV I kept quiet watching what was going on. Professor Fred was led by the staff to the office. The Academy President gave an order and no one could counter it without facing the consequences. I watched under the daylight as Fred submitted, submerged in thoughts as he was led away. Caroline came out of the crowd rushing towards me, she hugged me so tight, taking me off the ground. “You did so well, now the girls would be proud of you.” She said, I hummed and turned to look at Alpha Eric who was just by my side, talking with one of the officials that came out. His eyes clicked with mine, lingered for a while before we withdrew. “Yes, all the girls will be proud of me except one, or probably two.” I muttered with sarcasm. Eric was quite distracted as he paused his interaction and gazed at me, his brows a bit lowered. “Who's that?” He asked in a mindlink. “Diane!” I mentioned, Caroline and Eric could hear it as I wasn't loud. Fred's punishment was enough to cheer me up for t
Lucy's POV“I'm going to tell what you just did in public, so everyone knows how slutty of a bitch you are!” Eric growled.I grinned in a sinister style hearing this. I nodded my head. “Diane deserves this!”She fell to her knees, begging Alpha Eric profusely with tears. I was thrown into a dilemma as I got confused, wondering which Alpha Eric would go with, forgiving her or still doing what he threatened.“Will you get out of my office now?” He barked, within a twinkle of an eye, she was up, scurrying off.“How could she do that?” I vented my anger on the only person I could see Eric.“Why did you leave class?” His aloof tone loomed in the air, he walked over the refrigerator, taking out a glass of water and gulping it down slowly. He placed it back, closing the ref
Lucy's POVI couldn't just take my eyes off him.“Hmm,” he sighed. “You'll get to spend your forever with me but it's not gonna be easy.”I slowly widened my eyes. “Did he just say that?” I came closer to him, squatting before him.“What did you just say? Why is it not gonna be easy?” I got so curious, I held his shoulders, looking up at him. He then raised his head which was buried on his hands slowly and grabbed my cheeks with his hand. Our eyes locked gaze with each other, I watched as those fierce, scorching eyes of his dulled into a caring and charming one.“My wolf tells me that my parents wished I got married to another girl and that Alexia might get to come back one day after finding out where I am.” He brought his face closer that the tip of our noses touched.
Lucy's POVHe carried me on top of the table where I sat, watching as he finally pulled off my top, then his hands trailed my back towards my bra’s hook. Without any steady notice, he unhooked it. My handless bra fell to the floor exposing my boobs. I felt a cold wind blow past me, brushing over it. My nipples hardened, pointing at him.While his eyes never wanted to leave my boobs, he stood before me and I knew he wanted me to unbutton his shirt totally, I did and he pulled it off, flinging it to the table. I still had one more to do, taking off his trousers. I smiled, glancing up at him. He took this chance to touch my nipples, playing with it. He squeezed my boobs, playing with it.“Your boobs look so beautiful.” He complimented and I grinned.“Awwww!” I giggled.I unbuttoned his trousers, zipping down his trousers be
Lucy's POVI breathed satisfactorily, heeding to what my wolf said. It was more than a companion. Eric and I cuddled over the couch as we finished with our romantic session, feeling each other's warmth. This was another special moment for both of us.The time was 5 PM. I grunted, feeling nature was betraying us as the time seemed to go a little bit faster today.“What?” I watched as Eric jumped off the couch, dropping a kiss on my cheeks. “I have a little task to work on my system before we go to the doctor. You can dress up.” He said and started to put on his clothes.“Uh-hhh!” I groaned. “I wished the time was slower than this.”“Don't worry baby, we have the night for ourselves. You'll be sleeping in my chambers.”“What?” I smiled wildly, hugging him
Lucy's POVEric’s hand guided my back as I sat on him, his right pulled over my waist then to my face pulling my face closer to his. “I want to kiss you so bad,” he said in between gnashing his teeth. He understood the assignment that we weren't having sex this time around, so he was going to spark my brain with a series of romantic touches.Our lips nibbled, playing around each other. Our tongues felt the taste of each other, our front teeth clashed with each other as we continued to play with each other. Bliss flew into me, as my hands found his white shirt, I began to unbutton it down to the third button. His bulky chest was exposed right before me. I squirmed, jerking my head up as I brushed my hand over his chest.“Gosh!” I moaned.“You love what you see?” He asked of which I nodded to him. I pulled my body closer to his, engulfin
Lucy's POV“Yes sir, twenty-four hours is too long. I will update you as soon as possible.” The man supposed to be the security chief replied, speaking like a retired cop. Alpha Eric ended the call with a deep breath, turning to me, he gave me a kiss on the forehead which got me giggling. He tucked the phone back into his pockets.“The man in the call speaks like a retired cop, was he one of them?”“Yes,” Eric said curtly.“No wonder.”“As I was saying, the girl confessed that she wants you too and challenged my relationship with you, how I could get you to come defend me and sack a professor that was quite popular.”“Who's she?” Eric asked with curiosity. We were inside the elevator now and the door was slowly closing in on us. He dropped me to the flo
Lucy's POVThen I saw the guards rushing towards me.“What's wrong, baby?”“I'm at the reception. I'm about to be arrested!”Just done with this and the phone was snatched from my hand. A hard slap landed across my face. Anger was fuming inside of me. It dawned on me that this set of guards thought it was the other girl that was running away, I happened to be here at the exact time they were pursuing someone else.I wouldn't leave here without staging a fight!“Do you know who you are assaulting?” I lashed back at the guard who hit me, my eyes were so furious that I couldn't contend with it any longer. I somersaulted, hitting him hard across the face, he fell, tumbling over. Others drew nearer to me, I balled my fist, prepared to take them from all angles.&ldqu
Lucy's POV“It's just beginning!” She said with a smirk. “Perhaps you will know you aren't the one that dreams to marry a handsome prince.” She laughed, turning away.“Leave the bitch alone.” Caroline said, caressing my shoulders. “Some girls are just crazy attention seekers.”I kept thinking of what this girl said that I couldn't even concentrate in the class. From time to time I turned to have a look at her and each time she had this sinister grin on her which reflected in her eyes. Others might want the Alpha too but they aren't this frank, I wondered the confidence she had in challenging me this way.I smirked.After the class I watched as the girl hurriedly left, she wasn't with anyone, just alone. “That girl looks strange to me.” I whispered to Caroline. She nodded her head.&nb
Lucy's POV“What happened?” She questioned with a curious tone, bringing her face under mine to check my eyes, from then I raised my head slowly to look at her.“The Alpha and Luna have already arranged another girl to marry their son, saying I'm not fit.” My voice got choked up as I said this, I held my chest that moment being that I felt like vomiting. I stood up immediately rushing to the convenience, I couldn't afford disgracing myself before everyone. Luckily, the feeling went away as I came here.I decided to check my phone before going back to the cafeteria. Three messages popped up with Eric’s name on top.“Hey baby.”“How are you doing?”“Hope there's no issue again in school. We will be going for family planning after school.”“Wouldn
Lucy's POVThere was nothing I could do to make him change his mind and then I imagined going back to campus and having everyone's eyes on me. I don't think the idea of keeping our relationship secret would help us. I kept on pulling in these thoughts to mind as I sat at the back of the car. The same driver who took us here was asked by him to take me back.I arrived at school thirty minutes later. I waved to the driver, wishing he would come back in the evening to pick me up. I had work to do at Eric's office from the punishment he gave to me, Diane and Mia would possibly be there. I don't think the Alpha can easily back down on his words.I walked through the silent track of the Academy heading towards the lecture theater where I had my next class which was left with twenty minutes to begin. I sneaked in through the back door as all the students were already seated in the front. I spotted Caroline.
Lucy's POV“Lucy, I think we can choose to forget about what he just said and go about our normal activity as a couple? We had a lot of plans, didn't we?” Eric asked, to which I nodded.“Who knows, the Alpha King might not have made mention of me getting some other girl as my Luna, but he just formed this up. What he would love to tell the king.”This hit me deep as I guessed it could be true. I shook my head, flinching my hair. I was ready for whatever was going to happen. Life as I saw it wasn't gonna be a bed of roses, that's for sure. I saw no need to give up easily.I brushed this incident off my mind. “I'm gonna stay with you, Eric, no matter what!” I said to him with firmness. “We have kids together and I can't wait to raise a happy family with you.”Eric raised me up from the couch pulling me to
Eric’s POVHe saw us from the windows of his office properly, just as mine, they are floor-to-ceiling. I swallowed hard the lump in my throat, then turned back to look at Lucy with pitiable eyes.“What’s that?” She snapped, suspecting that something was wrong after I peered through my phone.“The Alpha says it's a private meeting with him and you'll have to wait for me in the waiting room, okay?” I didn't want to make her feel bad, she reluctantly accepted. “I promise to tell you everything he says when I come out.” She gave a smart nod.I rushed into my dad's office with my mind calculating a whole lot of things. I curtsied with a bow as I got in, over by his side was mom, I bowed to her in respect.“Alpha, please sit!” I got surprised over the way dad addressed me when he always called me
