Draken was in the garden. He loves to spend his time in this peaceful place. This place helps him clear his mind. This was a barren place. Nobody takes care of it. It was that woman who made this backyard into beautiful heaven. Each of the flowers in this place was lovingly planted by her. She was the one who made this barren place into this garden which became Draken's sanctuary.He recalled the time he had spent with her at this place. Talking to her as she consoled him on many occasions. She taught him how to love again.Shaking his head he rubbed his palms on his face and sighed. The cool breeze felt calming. It was cold outside. It will be snowing soon; these days.He rubbed his palm together when a light sneeze from some distance had his body going on full alert. Every muscle in his body tensed up. He didn't even smell someone else. With steady steps, he walked closer to where the sound came from. His eyes narrowed when he noticed a fur gown of snow white shade and then long bl
She limped out of his room and stepped into her room. She stared at his shirt and quickly changed and wore his shirt and then she grabbed pajamas from her cupboard and wore them.Her bed looked pretty appealing to her. Maybe she should just sleep here.She was about to get on the bed when a knock was heard before the door opened to reveal shirtless Draken which caused her innocent eyes to broaden as she instantly looked away.He didn't say anything. No questions, no argument. He just walked up to her. Picked her up in his arms bridal style before walking back to his room.He placed her on the bed and she noticed a first-aid box there as well."Pull your shirt up to your chest." He instructed and she stared at him dumbfounded. "Charlotte just did it yesterday," Aurora said."Doctor said to change them daily," He said and she hesitated."I can do it myself," she mumbled and he raised his onyx eyes to meet her gaze."Let me do it, Aurora." His deep voice left no space for argument as she
Aurora has almost healed. She wasn't doing any house chores and to her surprise, he had hired a maid to do all the chores.It's been three days and she couldn't stop thinking about that night. He let her see his vulnerable side and it was stuck with her now, roaming in her head like a mantra.She had noticed the change in his behavior. Though he wasn't a kind and gentle person. He tried to be gentle with her. He changed her bandages every night and treated her wounds with utmost care.She wanted to talk to him about the words he had said."Please, don't ever leave me. I'll die this time."She wondered who was cruel enough to hurt him this much. She wanted to console him. Be his comfort but she was afraid herself. Draken wasn't the safe option for her. Either their boat would sail or would drown pretty badly, she didn't know.And then there were those mafia-related files she had seen. Everything aside, she could never accept a man who was involved in hideous crimes like human trafficki
"I...uh... thank you," She mumbled as she noticed that he had already saved his number in her phone.He kept silent, munching on his food. Aurora also noticed that all her contacts were on this phone. He was being too merciful to her.She wanted to ask him so many questions but she didn't. She didn't want to ruin the peaceful environment. She should take things slow one at a time."I want to train," She mumbled and his eyes glided back to her face."Okay," He retorted and her jaw slacked.Wait."Okay?" She asked in a little high-pitched tone full of surprise.He blinked at her, feigning innocence. "Yeah," He breathed, shoving food in his mouth."I'll join beta Eren with the morning training," She said all excited."No," he deadpanned and her face fell."But," She whispered sullenly."I'll be the one training you," He proclaimed and she gawked at him.She can't train with him. He'll be the strict cold trainer who would surely make her regret even thinking about training."B...but, I'm
A knock on the door caught her attention as the door opened and Draken stepped in. His huge stature blocked the whole doorway. She looked at him expectantly and he flitted his gaze away. "I've to attend a party tonight. Be ready by 7." He said and she blinked at him confused. "I uh... I don't have a dress," She mumbled, still muddled. "I've ordered a dress, you'll receive it in an hour." He said and she tilted her head with furrowed brows. "Is it in the pack?" She asked. "No, it's in the city," He said and her frown deepened. "Okay," She mumbled as he glanced at her once before leaving. She stared at the closed door for a while. He was taking her out to a party. She recalled how in the beginning he said he didn't want her family to know that she was doing okay. From what she had learned. He would treat her with respect and care in front of his pack but he didn't want anyone else to know about this and she wondered why. Just as he said, she received the dress. She took it out
The place was huge and decorated beautifully. Her father often used to give such lavish parties so she was used to it but the only difference was, she didn't know anyone there. She noticed that humans and werewolf species both were present.She also got piercing glances from the people which made her step closer to Draken.Draken was uneasy as soon as they stepped inside the grand Hall. He was quick to notice many men's eyes on Aurora and all he wanted to do was rip their eyes out of their sockets.He instantly regretted bringing her along but he couldn't afford to put her life in danger. What if more men were sent in disguise to kill Aurora just like Echo?But there was another important reason he brought her tonight. He was sure one of her brothers would be here. He didn't tell her about it but he wanted her to meet her brother. She would like it, won't she?They stood at the table as Draken lowered his head to her ear. "Don't drink or eat anything here. Okay?" He said and she light
"Draken is my mate, I'm not leaving him." She said with confidence and Hunter's frown deepened into a scowl."He is our enemy, are you forgetting that," Hunter said calmly trying to control his icy tone. He was never good at controlling his temper."He is my mate. He didn't treat me like an enemy," Aurora said firmly and Hunter looked away as he gripped the railing with force."He wants to destroy our pack, Aurora. He wants to become an Alpha King. He's already under King's radar. His life is at risk and you being staying beside him would risk your life as well," Hunter tried to reason with her."He didn't want power. Something bad had happened to him. From what I can understand, his motive is different from Alonso's," Aurora said and Hunter stared at her.She didn't sound like his little sister at all. She sounds strong, intelligent, and mature."How are you so sure?" Hunter asked."Do you think he would respect his enemy's daughter and treat her with care? No right? You don't do tha
She was about to run into his arms but the way he looked at her coldly made her freeze on her spot."What a shameless mate you have, Alpha Draken. She pulled me here and was all over me," Jonathan hissed and she felt as if her heart ceased to beat at such a wrong declaration. Her fingers curled into fists on her sides as she tried to control her anxiety. She couldn't breathe. Draken stepped in and stalked towards her. She flinched and stepped back but he grasped her forearm and yanked her to him. His cold eyes lingered on the bruise on her cheek and her busted lip.His hold tightened on her arm and she winced, his hold loosened as he looked at Jonathan. "I'm sorry on behalf of my mate," Draken gritted out with menace, and with each of his words, her heart dropped into the pit of her stomach."I'll teach her a proper lesson so she won't do it again," Draken growled."If it was anyone else at my place, the person would've taken the bait," Jonathan said as Draken turned around dragging
