Calla's POV

The smile on this face quickly dried up as I shot sharp words at him,I camly waited for his next line of action.

Instead it went sideways, I did not get the reaction I had expected. With his head down a bit, I heard him chuckle and raised his eyes to meet min.

"Well." He ran his slender finger through his hair. "I know I am probably not worth it but do me a favor, no tricks attached."

I did not digest his words foolishly, so I had to study his facial expressions and even body movements to fish out any ulterior motives hidden behind his handsome tricky face. Lucian is never short of tricks and games, he always had a way of cheating.

"And you really expect I would buy that?" I quinted my eyes, watching him closely.

"Remember, I said no tricks attached, it's just a favor." Lucian pressed on, trying to lure me in.

"I may or may not or likely or even unlikely grant you the favor. Know what? Just name it." I ventured.

A bright smile broke across his jaw. "Do me the honor of dinn

    Lucian's POV "Axel, you will pay for this badly in ways you cannot comprehend." My gaze sharpened in a dark way as a sinister thought ran through my head. It seemed like Axel took every span and width of her heart, although he had already broken her into countless pieces. I lowered my head and looked at Calla's sleeping face. I felt pity for her. "After all he had done to you, why do you still hold on, eh?" I caressed her cheek with my thumb. I even began to wonder what I should do to make her forget her past and open up to me. All those thoughts attacked me from every direction and without mercy. I looked outside the window of the carriage, and all I saw was darkness. Yes, darkness. That was the state of my heart; it was all dark and gloomy. I only hoped that one day light will come and clear the darkness away. The carriage wound up into the mansion's wide courtyard and creaked to a full stop in front of the building. Calla was still asleep, so I took it upo

"The question should be asked in the opposite direction.""Huh?" I did not understand his gibber.Lucian as usual, laughed in a annoying and sarcastic manner. "Calla, you are in my room. I should be asking you the question."It was like my blood stopped flowing and stopped functioning. "I-in your room!?""Yes, Calla." He sounded calm as ever."Why did you bring me here? Why, why?" I could not control the mixed up feelings in my head."I wanted to. You were a bit lonely." He threw me a mock look, and yes, it succeeded in flaring my anger up."Were you stupid or you've lost your wits?" My hands flew to my mouth to cover them from spewing more nonsense. I somehow felt happy that I actually said it.Lucian's expression remained calm as slow moving river. I wonder what his next move was. Lucian somewhat chose to spare

That wasn't the case. The prime question was what happened yesterday that resulted to me being taken to Lucian's room.Lucian was trying to say something, but my stubbornness had a better of me that I did not care to listen.But I heard something, he said I told him not to leave me. Me? That's sounds ridiculous, how would I possibly do that?As I got hold of myself, I stood up from where I sat and headed straight for the bathroom for a proper morning. I didn't need a maid to tell me that, well my armpits did.And also I was to join Lucian for breakfast but the little devil on my shoulder tried luring me to defy his order as usual.

    Calla's POV I walked through the garden, taking in the sweet scent of blooming flowers. My fingers grazed the petals of the roses and lilies, feeling their softness and admiring their beauty. As I continued walking, I reached my favorite spot in the garden, a peaceful pond with colorful fishes.I sat down on the edge of the pond, letting my feet dangle in the water. The fishes swam around my toes, tickling them with their little fins. I smiled, feeling the tension from breakfast with Lucian slowly dissipating.The sound of a twig snapping behind me caused me to turn my head. Lucian was standing a few feet away, his eyes a bit tense."I'm sorry, Calla," he said softly. "I didn't mean to upset you back there."I took a deep breath, trying to remain calm. "Lucian, I need you to understand that being your mate isn't something I can just jump into. It's a huge commitment, and I need to be sure that you're willing to put in the effort."Lucian nodded, taking a step closer to me. "I know th

Alpha George replied calmly.At my position at the head, my head already began to spin because of thoughts that created a typhoon. Even hearing Alpha George's old English intonation and speech made me sick and irritated."Why would you even say it? Can't you seek a better day and setting to divulge this critical information?"

There was this sign of growing anger in his ocean-blue eyes, good thing he dismissed the meeting.If not, Alpha Roland would have not lived to see the next day.The meeting room was not empty, save for me and Lucian. Lucian sat quietly on his seat, spacing out with his eyes vacant."Lucian, get hold of yourself. Let's go to your study." I patted his shoulder to rouse him. He sighed deeply before standing up, I followed closely behind.When we got to study, Lucian slumped on the sofa in the office laying there carefree. I pulled a chair to his side. "Why the attitude? He only asked on your progress with Calla."Finally, Lucian spoke. "Something clicked inside me, my heart kinda fell at his words.

At this juncture, my heart began to prick and squeezed at the slightest mention of my home. "Can we go now? I'm already tired and full."I was holding my overbearing emotions by a thin thread.
