Luke knew this was the end of everything,he had never felt so helpless before in his entire life time.the pain of losing his mate was so intense,he hadn't marked her but seeing how she was staring at him like he was the worst monster on Earth hurt him so much.He didn't mind if others see him as a monster but his mate seeing him as a monster was a whole different issue.he didn't want to have a mate before but meeting Mariana changed his entire life without him knowing it,he has already accepted her,he has already accepted to love her as his mate and this happens.He clenched his fists,no matter what happens,he was never going to let her go.she can't just leave him but the next thing that happened kept him Wondering whether Mariana's brain was still intact or Maybe she was sleep walking.Mariana took a few steps and hugged him,she was hugging him so tightly."Thank God that you are safe"she whispered.Luke was surprised with her actions, maybe she didn't see him in his wolf form like he h
Luke was taken aback,he wasn't expecting Mariana to hug him,he didn't mind her hugging him,he was beyond excited that she hugged him. Her body felt so warm and soft which comforted his soul. "Am so sorry,I was just worried about you". Mariana apologized, disengaging from the hug when she realized that she wasn't supposed to hug him. Luke frowned his face, he was not happy that she broke the hug but he did well to hide his countenance."It's no problem,"He said, yawning at the same time and it was obvious that was still drunk."What are you doing outside?""Why is your cloth covered in blood?". They asked each other at the same time, making them laugh hysterically at themselves. "Let's go inside"Mariana said, helping his unsteady movement, Luke didn't bulge,he was still drunk and that's when Mariana noticed that he was stinking of alcohol."Hey what happened to you?"She asked him."I was having a good time in the bar,I was driving to God knows where and I thought you were in dange
The next day.It was morning already, Luke woke up and found himself sleeping on the couch.he wondered how he ended up there.He tried hard to remember what had happened,he remembered being drunk and how he came back to the house when he thought Mariana was in danger but he found her to be alright.What happened next?he thought.He strode into his bedroom and the scent of his mate wafted his nostrils,he inhaled and exhaled smiling to himself but the question should be,why is her scent filled in his bathroom.Then everything that happened the other night came into his head and he also remembered the most important part,he marked her,he smiled to himself.he thanked himself for being drunk but as if realization hit him,he thought about Mariana's feelings. where is Mariana?he thought."who knows how she would feel about the whole thing?"I shouldn't have marked her"he blamed himself for everything.He checked the time and saw that it was already late in the morning.he left his room and went t
Few hours later,the maid was done with cooking,she arranged the food on the dining.she went upstairs to her room after she was done setting the dining.few hours later,she came back to the dining room to see that everything was still the same as she left it.she opened the dish and found the food untouched."What's the use of cooking when you won't touch the food"she said to no one in particular trying to pack the dishes."What are you doing?"came Luke's voice who was coming down the stairs."I want to pack everything up"the maid replied."Why?this food seemed to be untouched""I am sorry Alpha,I didn't know you wanted to eat"she apologized immediately."Where is Mariana? doesn't she want to eat?"He asked."I don't know ,alpha,I haven't seen her since the time we came back from the grocery store, maybe she is not interested in eating"the maid replied."Did you check on her?"Luke asked."No,Alpha"the maid replied."Did you ask her whether she wanted to eat or not?"Luke asked her."No,Al
"Why are you so surprised to see me?what's with the shouting?"Luke asked her."How can you ask me such a question?where are your manners?what are you doing here?she asked him but Luke didn't answer any of her question."are you here to rape me again"the questioned slipped out of her tongue.Luke's expression turned sour after he heard what she said.Mariana bit her lips,she didn't know when she said that,the question made the atmosphere to be tense,it made them to remember what happened between them.She stood there, her head bent low,her gaze was fixed on the ground,she was using her toe to draw an imaginary thing on the tiled floor.Luke cleared his throat after looking at her for a while and thinking that she might catch a cold if she stays in the bathroom for long without drying her body well."I will see you in the dining room,I have something important to discuss with you,you should dress up fast"he said leaving the bathroom with Mariana walking behind him.Mariana heaved a sigh o
"So you were trying to compel me"Mariana said to him and Luke was shocked the more."Why do you seem so surprised?"she asked him but Luke couldn't find the word to reply her."I know about everything already,the existence of werewolves, vampires and witches,I know everything about you"she said to Luke."How did you find out?"Luke asked her."it doesn't matter how I found out, what matters is that I know everything"Mariana replied him."Then does that mean that you know that you are my mate"Luke asked her.Mariana wasn't expecting him to ask her that question,he was being so straight forward."Yes,I found out this morning,so this explains the reason why you have been helping me"Mariana said to him."I am glad somehow that you know everything about me now and I hope you also remember that you are my mate,that means that you don't have any right to leave my side,we are meant to be together"Luke said smiling.he was happy that he didn't have to go to through the process of explaining every
Mariana went to her room after exchanging words with Luke,she was really tired of everything happening in her life.the only thing she sought was peace of mind.MARIANA'S POV.I was really angry with myself for saying that he was sent to make my life miserable,I hate saying hurtful words to him.i don't know how to tell him that am in love with him but I don't think it's necessary.i don't want to hurt Alex,it's better for me to keep my feelings to myself.i know that he loves me but nothing can happen between us,I can't hurt Alex.Speaking of Alex,it's been a long time since I talked to him and he is not even bothering to check up on me,guess he is still angry with me about the kissing incident of Mr Luke and I.I have a lot of explaining to do when I get back home,I hope he believes me.Mariana picked her phone up and dialed Alex's number but he didn't pick up.she tried again but he didn't pick up.on her third trial,the phone was switched off.sye was so troubled,she didn't know what her
Few hours later, Mariana woke up feeling very tired and most importantly hungry.as if her stomach knew what she was thinking,it grumbled loudly.She got up sluggishly from the bed and headed downstairs to the dining room."Hey, come"she said to a maid who was passing by."Yes ma'am, how can I help you?"the maid said to Mariana."Please can you help prepare food for me,I am so famished"she said to the maid and the maid nodded."Ok,ma'am,I will do that, just give me some minutes"the maid said to her and left for the kitchen.Mariana didn't know what to do to pass out time,she decided to watch television,she sat down and put the television on.While watching the television,she dozed off on the couch.Few minutes later the maid from earlier walked up to her."Ma'am"the maid called but she was not responding."Ma'am"the maid called again, this time tapping her shoulder."Yes,"Mariana muttered, opening her eyes slowly."What is it?"she asked the maid."The food is ready,I have set it in the
