Gwen’s POVI sat at my dressing table, feeling both frustration and anger, I clutched my cup of tea, the warmth did little to ease my fear.Aurelia and Elgiva were busy with some chores, and their attempts to console me were unsuccessful.Nora’s harsh words still echo in my mind and I took deep breaths trying to calm myself, but it was of little or no use.The fear for Blake’s safety was so overwhelming and Nora only fueled my frustration.Nora's presence loomed as she entered my room again, her expression cold as ever. She glanced at me and sighed. "Still here, Lady Gwen? I thought you'd be out proving yourself by now." She said mockingly.Aurelia and Elgiva entered the room.My grip on the cup tightened, trying to force myself to remain calm and I said “I'm doing what I can, Nora. Unlike you, I actually care about Blake."Nora's eyes flashed with anger. "And what is that supposed to mean?"I stood up and said, "It means that maybe if you had someone you truly cared about, you'd
Gwen's POVI wasn't myself when I woke up the following day. I couldn't stop crying even after my maids tried their best to keep my spirits up. I remembered what Nora said yesterday and it was beginning to weigh me down. How could Nora have said that to me? What could have warranted such a remark? But with the girl’s explanation, I understand further!“My Lady, you do not have to concentrate on what was said to you? Healer Nora was just being spiteful!” Elgiva uttered in a demeaning tone. She looked visibly angry but I just couldn't stop the tears from flowing uncontrollably. I was becoming a crybaby all of a sudden, this was quite unusual.Nora was trying to remind me of the Stormfur pack, being a representative of the pack here in Moonfang pack! I was still trying to gather myself that Blake left the pack without even informing me and Nora had the audacity to walk into this room and spit such nonsense. And with Blake not yet back or any message from him, it just made everything get
Gwen's POV His hands explored my body, sending hot sensations and shivers down my spine. My hands were dangling by my side as the confidence I had built up before his arrival seemed to have left me, I was stranded with a rush of emotions that were overwhelming. I needed to catch my breath as I tried to break off from the kiss but Blake's hold on me was so powerful and tight as he continued to kiss me passionately. I was melting away even though I didn't know what to do and I loved what he was doing to me, his hand had slipped beneath my gown as he caressed me tight. I gripped onto him as I melted into his embrace, my mind was whirlwinding with emotions and deep feelings I couldn't comprehend. This was the man that had been in my thoughts all day long and I had been waiting for and was having strange incomprehensible feelings for. The kiss was just everything, fused with deep longing and love that took my breath away literally. After he finally pulled away from me, I was breathless
Gwen’s POVMy eyes fluttered open, as the morning sunshine hit my face, waking me up fully. My heart skipped a beat when I realized that Blake was not beside me. I felt immobilized with fear which made me sit up hurriedly as I looked around the room for any sign of him. Had he gone out again? This sent a shiver down my spine. I was about to get out of bed to start looking for him, when I heard the bedroom door squeak open and Elgiva came in with a smile on her face.“Good morning Lady Gwen”. Elgiva said. “Alpha Blake is in his chamber. I let out a sigh of relief. "Thank Goodness," I muttered in gladness, while swinging my legs to the other side of the bed ." I was so scared he’s left again I said feeling relaxed.Elgiva walked over to me and gently placed her hands in my shoulder. "He's returned safely. Go see him," she said to me encouragingly. "It will definitely put your mind at ease."I nodded, quickly slipping into my robe and hurrying out of the room. I walked down the
Gwen’s POVMy heart was pounding with both anger and disbelief as I stared at Nora, who stood in front of me as she came into my room. I could still hear the echoes of the slap in my mind, and Aurelia’s cheek bore the red mark of Nora’s hand. "Why did you slap her?" I asked with a quiver in my voice.Nora folded her arms, squeezing her face she said. "I asked her to do my laundry, and she didn't do it right. I found some of my clothes burnt. She said had washed and ironed them properly without them getting burnt, but I know she's lying."Aurelia who was kneeling as she helped me buckle my sandals, shook her head vehemently. I never said that Nora. I did do your laundry, I washed the clothes and ironed them properly with no incident, maybe someone else did that to your clothes. Nora’s eyes narrowed as she stepped closer to Aurelia. "You are lying," she uttered. “I asked you specifically to handle them and now you are trying to blame someone else for your incompetence.”Aurelia’s
Gwen's POV As I entered his chamber, Alpha Blake said he was still a bit preoccupied with a situation concerning the pack and that he would send to me as soon as he was free. I went back to my room. To say I was fuming was an understatement to what I was feeling currently, I kept pacing back and forth in my room, clenching my fit and jaw and stamping my foot repeatedly. How could he have just snubbed me and not even listened to what I had to say? Will he seriously believe Nora over me? I can't believe Nora could frame such a pathetic lie against me in the blink of an eye. Oh geez! All my assumptions about her are so true! My anger was simmering beneath the surface and was just waiting to explode in everyone's face. The fact he didn't even give me a chance to dispute the lies arranged by Nora just makes me want to stick my hand into their faces! The little words he said still sting as I think about it further, how could he believe her over me? That I will call her names? He doubted
Blake's POVWhat the hell just happened? I was so confused as my inside gnawed at me, I stared at Gwen's closed door like it was going to give me the answer I needed. I paced in the hallway wondering why the sudden change in her. She even pushed me out of her room with the most disgusting look I have ever seen on her face. Something was wrong and I couldn't point a finger to why she suddenly became distant. She wasn't like this yesterday when she was warm and open but why the sudden act of shutting me out completely? Did she need space? I was going to give her that, so I went to my study where I had pending issues concerning the pack. My mind was settled so I left and tried to talk to Gwen again but her behavior was just something else. “Gwen!” I called out as I saw her cross towards the garden with her maids by her side but she did like she didn't hear me and just ignored me completely. I can't take this! I followed her into the garden calling her way but immediately she sighted m
Gwen’s POVBlake stood in his office. He felt a mix of frustration and annoyance. Nora's words from earlier that day echoed in his mind. Despite his doubts about her story, a small part of him was irritated by the thought that there might be some truth to it. He thanked Nora and watched her leave the room with a smug expression on her face. It gnawed at him. He couldn’t pinpoint why he felt so unsettled.I strolled through the palace park my mind swirling with a mix of emotions. The evening air was cool and crisp. I sought solace in the tranquil beauty of the surroundings. I had spent the day mulling over the conversation I had overheard between Alpha Blake and Nora. My heart was heavy with hurt and confusion. The lush gardens and serene atmosphere usually brought me peace. But, today they felt like a cruel reminder of the turmoil I was experiencing.It stung that he seemed to be putting so much trust into the other woman Nora, rather than trusting me which left me with ling
