(Nikita's P.O.V.)I ran for a long time until Tala was able to quiet down and listen to me. When I tried to ask Tala about the specifics of her situation, she fell into a deep sleep.I lay down on the leaves of the forest and covered my eyes with the back of my hand, but my tears still flowed.I haven't cried since my dad died because I didn't want my mother to worry about me. I know how hard it was for my mother before she became a female alpha, and when my father died, many of the pack alphas treated her like a whore. They humiliated her by saying they would help her rebuild the pack if she would just open her legs, and my mother fought those bastards with her life every time.Even if it was the fault of those bastards, the media will always smear my mother, whenever a woman has sex with a man, they think it's the woman's problem.I don't understand why my mother fought so hard, maybe there is another place out there to choose to live instead of taking over the community, but my mot
(Nikita's P.O.V.)I almost got jumped by this woman, and the clothes she was wearing showed that she was a doctor.I could smell the same odor on her as Trojan. Without waiting for me to say anything, this doctor's woman hugged me nervously."I'm glad you're okay, you know there are still a lot of rogues around here."I didn't say anything, before figuring out what she was up to.She seemed to see that I was confused and hurriedly explained. "I'm the school nurse of this school, my name is Lea. It's my duty to make sure that every student is healthy, I saw your injury in the cafeteria and when I tried to offer you help, you ran out.""So, come with me to the infirmary now?"I hesitated; I've always thought that the clinic is the place for the weak. But Tala is currently in a deep sleep, and if I want to recover on my own, then it will take me at least a week. My training cannot be interrupted."You should come inside. I think you could use some bandages, “Lea insisted. She looked at m
(Nikita's P.O.V.)It's the weekend.I have observed one thing after that big bullying incident at the cafeteria. They have stopped picking on me. The gossip still goes on, but the actual physical bullying has stopped since that incident.It left me wondering what happened. Maybe, they got scared when they saw blood coming out of my mouth? I don't know. I'm just happy because I didn't have to wash stained clothes in the past three days."I think Alpha Trojan helped you..." Tala said out of the blue which made me scoff.She's listening to my thoughts." Not him and I don't need him to help me! Tala, he has a woman he loves."My wolf sighed."But you didn't even try...""Okay! Stop it!"I'm never going to ask Trojan for help. I just don't think I could stand being vulnerable in front of him. I want him to see me as a strong, independent, and female werewolf. Not like the girls who are desperately throwing themselves at him.I wandered the streets hoping to find a part-time job. Although
(Nikita's P.O.V.)Two days laterIt has been two days since I started working at the bar. Although I am always in a hurry and I not only need to finish my homework, I also need to find time to add extra training, but so far, I am adjusting well.At least I don't have to worry about money anymore.Betty, the owner, required me to wear the sexy bunny-inspired uniform she apparently used for her waitresses. I was in no position to refuse anymore, so I just agreed.I'm just happy that I could finally rent an apartment in a month. I'm finally moving out of the school。I am currently in the locker area, changing my clothes because I just got here from school. I work during the evenings which is convenient for me as a student because I don't have to adjust my schedule."Nikita?"I glanced at the door when I heard Betty's voice."We have special guests tonight, and they specifically asked to be served by my female waitresses. You're going to be one of them."I blinked my eyes."S—Sure."She c
(Nikita's P.O.V.)When Alpha Trojan reappeared in my sight, the first thing I wanted to do was to get away from him, and I still couldn't get over his words of denial. What a mate means to a werewolf, I'm sure Trojan knows very well, but he still denies it, and I have reason to believe that he already intends to make Clara his mate.But why would he help me? Yes, he must be doing it for Lea's sake, who is his sister. The reason I don't want to let these bastards off so easily is that my mother told me never to be merciful in the face of my enemies, it should be an eye for an eye!Alpha Trojan asked them to apologize to Lea and me, and they obeyed. However, it was obvious that Jerry wasn't genuine in his apology. He was even smirking at me like he was telling me that he was not done with me. That's why I didn't give them a response when they were asking for my reply.There's no way I'm letting them leave without giving them a piece of my brain!"Assholes!" I loudly called.Everyone gas
(Trojan's P.O.V.)It didn't take long, and the owner soon came with our drinks."Thank you for coming to Bottle Grounds, Alpha Trojan. It's truly an honor to have you at my bar. It's been so long since the last time it became so full like this." I looked at the people inside. The number of customers has tripled. "My name is Betty..." She offered her hand to me. I politely shake it, smiling kindly at her."Thank you for your warm welcome, Betty. " I said, but deep inside I wanted to thank her for shielding Nikita earlier. I appreciate her kindness towards my belligerent mate. "And thank you for this fancy wine," I added, raising the bottle."Oh, Alpha... I don't know how to respond to your humbleness. It was your sister who helped us through that situation..." she replied, making me smile a little. I know that already."You're a kind woman, Betty. As a reward, I will give medals for your bar. I hope that it will help your business grow."She gasped and was about to decline my offer whe
(Trojan's P.O.V.)Nikita's sudden question left me speechless. I wasn't expecting her to be so direct. She was just looking straight into my eyes like she didn't really know the answer to her question. Lea was also looking at me, waiting for me to answer Nikita.What does she mean? Does she expect me to answer?"Trojan! Tell her!" My wolf ran out once more as I slackened."I'm sure Tala is looking forward to us claiming her too," Lupus added.I cleared my throat, although Lea was there, she was always on my side and I wasn't worried about her spilling the secret."My mate is ......""That's enough! I think the identity of your partner must be hard for you to say, that's why you hesitated for so long." Nikita cut me off as I was about, to tell the truth.There was anger in her eyes as if this whole thing was my fault."I don't think I have a reason to stay here anymore.""Lea, thank you, we can meet at school." She turned to Lea.I froze in place, and when I tried to pull her back, she
(Nikita's P.O.V.)Looking at the girl standing beside him, I can't help but feel the bitterness filling the inside of my body. The way she smirks at me like she's so proud to be beside Trojan... I hate to admit it but it's affecting me, especially my wolf.Surprisingly though, Tala is not reacting violently like the short-tempered wolf she is... She was just upset... and disappointed."Mom?" I heard Lea speak behind me. Luna Octavia rushed to pull her daughter away from me. She worriedly hugged Lea, crying like she just saved her from the danger which is apparently to be me. "H-Hey..." Lea seemed confused about her mother's reaction. She gazed at all the people gathered at the mouth of the cave. "What's going on?""GILL!" Doctor Hanson blurted, running towards her daughter. I moved my body slightly to let him pass through. Just like Luna Octavia, he also pulled his daughter away from me. I clenched my jaw when Luna Octavia starts to check Lea's body like I was capable of hurting her.
