ARIA'S POVHOW do I describe the atmosphere around us?In one word –Astonishing.There was no better way to describe the feelings I was having as deep down inside my heart I could feel my nerves racing down my blood stream with blood or impulses but rather filled with nectars for the butterflies flipping in my belly.Tristan pulled out a chair and I slipped in. His masculine scent hung heavily above us, I could see that Carmellia was setting the table and kept on throwing glances at me where I was seated.I could read every single emotion on her that was expressive as art from the smirk forming in her lip down the little twitch in eyes. I could sense it in everything because my hormones at that moment were heightened."Oh, goodness what have I gotten myself into." I thought to myself running my temple with my thumb.&nbs
**ARIA'S POV** I groaned in my sleep and I slowly opened my eyes, I tried getting up but I felt someone holding my hand, and that was when I noticed Tristan. "What?" I muttered as I stared at him. I sat up slowly, being careful not to wake him up, I find it hard to believe he stayed by my side. I leaned forward to stare at his face, he looks so handsome, even in his sleep. I tried dressing his messy hair but when he groaned due to my touch, I stopped what I was doing. Seeing him doing this for me touches my heart, he's just so sweet and loving and every single time, Tristan amaze me. "He's so different," I muttered. The door creaked opened and Carl walked in, a smile crept up his face when he saw that Tristan was still sleeping. "Hey," I mouthed. He waved at me then he quietly walked to my side. "How are you mom?" "I'm fine dear, why are you still up? You should be asleep my now," I said and he sighed. "Yes, I wasn't feeling sleepy, so I came to check up on you two," He g
**ARIA'S POV** "Y you're awake," I stuttered. Tristan nodded, he looked at Carl then he smiled, he held his arm wide open and Carl went to sit on his laps. "How are you Carl? You're still up by this time, why?" "I couldn't sleep so I came to check up on mom," Carl replied. "How are you Aria? I'm so sorry for hitting you so bad, please forgive me, I didn't mean to." He sighed sadly. "Wow, this is good," I thought with a smile. I'm literally enjoying this special treatment Tristan is giving to me, if I tell Tristan that I'm all better, he'll get me to train in no time and God knows how tired I am from all the sparring. I'll rather pretend to still be in pain, at least it'll earn me a few days off training. "It's okay, don't blame yourself," I said softly. "Does it hurt?" I nodded positively, then I faked a painful wince. "I'm still in so much pain and to top it all, I'm equally hungry," "I'll go make you something to eat now, what about you Carl? Do you need anything?" "N
**ARIA'S POV**"Why don't you and Carl move into the pack house," Tristan said."What!!" I blurted out."Yes Aria, I think that's better, at least that way, I'll be able to keep an eye on you,""N no Tristan, there's no need for that, you don't have to worry about me like that. I really don't want to burden you like this, I can take care of myself, I'm good," I refused instantly.Tristan sighed deeply. "How many times do I have to say this to you Aria? You're not a burden to me at all, so please stop insisting or saying that you are when you're obviously not."I bit my bottom lip nervously and I bent my head down, I don't know why those words kinda make my heart flutter."Do you understand?" Tristan asked.I looked at him and I nodded positively."And again, it'll be better for you to stay in the pack house so the people can get used to you before you become the Luna," He added.A lot was really going on in my heart right now, and I'm clearly not comfortable with this at all. I just t
**ARIA'S POV**As we walked into the pack house, all eyes were fixed on us, making me feeling so uncomfortable."Alpha," The greeted with their heads bowed down in respect.Tristan acknowledged their greetings before telling them that we'll be staying there from now on.I noticed the shocked expression on the faces of the elders and the other subjects, but they were quick to hide it."Okay Alpha," One of the elders said."Welcome to the pack house Aria." The greeted."Thank you," I replied with a smile."Come, I'll take you to our room." Tristan said before walking away with I and Carl trailing behind him.Some of the guards will bring our things along.We got to our room and Carl let out a wow as he stared around the whole place."Are we really going to be staying here?" He asked, still staring around in amusement.I must admit, this room seems way more bigger and cozier than the room at the other house, it was neatly decorated too."Yes Carl, but this room will be for you and your m
Writers POV Aria wakes up tired and hungry, she feels like staying in bed throughout due to the sparring that occurred yesterday. Her body ached badly and she wished for a massage. Although she had eaten enough she was still hungry and her nostrils could scent a lot of food making her stomach rumble. She wondered if there was a party going on that she wasn't aware of. She was so damn sure that it wasn't the maids handwork because this particular meal had a different scent. A scent that watered her mouth. Entering the bathroom she quickly brushes her teeth when carl comes in. "Mom, where are you?" Carl said shouting. "Give me a minute carl am in the bathroom" She replied. "What's wrong baby?" Aria asks coming out of the bathroom. "We need to go downstairs imediately" he said rushing. "Why the rush? Give me 2 minutes let me put something on" Aria replied and was amused as to how he couldn't stay patient. "Or do you want your mother to go downstairs with a robe?". "Mom pleas
ARIA’S POVI was shocked when I overheard the discussions of some women. “I heard a Princess is coming from another Kingdom to visit Alpha Tristan,” A woman in a black gown said. “Do you know who this princess is?” Another woman who was present there questioned. “No, but I can’t wait to see who this mystery princess is, since she’s coming for her marriage preparations with Alpha Tristan after a long-term betrothal,” The woman in black said. “Betrothal?” A woman asked with widened eyes. “Yes,” The woman in black said, and my eyes widened when she reconfirmed what she just said. I was able to see them clearly, but they weren’t able to see me, so they continued their conversation. “I’m so certain that Alpha Tristan’s relationship with Aria will be affected by the mystery princess’s appearance,” One woman sighed. “You shouldn’t sound like you feel bad about it?” A woman said to her. “Of course I do, who wouldn’t?” “Why should I feel bad about it, when I strongly believe that Ari
ARIA’S POVI spread my hands widely for Carl to hug me, which he did excitedly. He refused to release me and I kept on hugging him tightly, until he finally released me. “I guess he felt suffocated,” He smiled and gave me a light peck on my cheek, before giggling softly, but stopped after a while. “Mummy, how come you were locked inside here?” Carl raised his brows and I shrugged, not knowing how to answer him. “I really don’t know how,” I sighed, and he furrowed his brows. “So you don’t know how you got locked in here?” Carl stared at me confusingly. “Yeah, That’s what I’m trying to say,” I sighed “What do you mean by that, Aria?” I heard Tristan ask, but I ignored him completely. “Mummy, Daddy was asking you?” Carl pouted. “I don’t know what to say to him,” I shrugged, and I noticed Carl looked up to stare at my face with a confused gaze. I looked at Tristan and noticed that he stared at me with his piercing gaze. “Anyway, thank God you’re safe now,” Tristan said when he
