Chapter 3 - Something's wrong

“Blaze, tomorrow you and the council will be having a meeting. Be there on time,” I heard his mom said as Blaze enters the house.

“Tsk. Is there any other choice? Mom, you know I don’t want to be an Alpha. I dint like this position, give it to someone else!” Blaze shouted to her mom.

Why is he not proud of it? He has the power and authority to control everybody, that’s why Dark wanted for so long.

“What are you doing here, ugly maid?” Blaze asked me coldly.

“Your dinner is ready!” I said with a smile on my face trying to make his energy alive.

“Eat those food you prepare. I’ll be skipping my dinner,” he said and walked directly to his bed.

“Skipping meals will make you weak.”

“I’m not a human. Leave me alone!”

“After what you did to me? No, I won’t obey you!” I said and sat beside him.

“Damn you! What are you doing?”

Maybe he is really afraid of me. Because of my dark eyebags?

“Go away or else, I’ll mark you!” he said trying to threaten me.

“What if I won’t?” I continue teasing him.

He looks into my eyes and I was shocked by the next thing he did. He pulled me closer to him and let our lips meet each other.

“What the!” I screamed but he just laughs.

“Is that your first?” he asked teasingly.

“No, but damn you!”

“Really? Someone kissed you before? He is crazy like me, but I like that kiss. “

And that crazy is still you. The old you, the human Blaze I loved before.

I immediately run inside my room and buried my face on the pillow. My heart is going crazy again! This can’t be, I must stop this weird feeling as early as now. He is not the same as Blaze that exist before. He has a rule on their pack, we are different.

“Come out ugly maid! I have something to tell you,” Blaze called me, so I stood up and calm myself.

“What is it?” I asked him while scratching my head.

“Tomorrow, I want you to give this to Harry,” he said and handed me a paper bag. I don’t know what’s inside, but It’s a little bit heavy.

“Okay.” I get the paper bag from her hand and turned my back from him.

“You’ll go with me tomorrow.”

I’ll go with him to their meeting? Why should I?

“I can’t go,” I said trying to pissed him again.

“You can’t insist, I am your boss!” he stood firmly in front of me. He raised his eyebrow and lean his other shoulder to the door.

“Fine, I will go with you, Alpha Blaze!” I respectfully said and bow.

“Don’t call me Alpha, call me Boss,” he utters before turning his back from me.

The next morning, we together went to our school but he left me on the gate. He hates walking with me, of course my appearance is quite annoying and knowing that he is an Alpha, it’s not good to be with an ugly human.

“He is Blaze, right?’ Lester came and walk with me. I look at him carefully. He is acting weird but I can sense that he is telling the truth.

“Where did you came from? Are you also a God, a werewolf, or what kind of specie you are?” I asked him but he answered me with a smirk.

“Are you a spy?” I asked him again but he only shook his head.

I chuckle and turn my attention to the man walking ahead of us. I run as fast as I could and stopped him from walking. “Excuse me, here is …”

He looks at me and I paused from talking. His eyes are cold as eyes, but then his face became calm. “From who?” he asks coldly.

“From Alpha Blaze,” I answered and he get the paper bag and throw it to the fountain.

Seriously? Why did he did that?

“Don’t obey him next time,” he whispered and left me.

“He is Harry Dews, ex-best friend of Alpha Blaze. They are great rivals now, and they hated each other.   Your Boss just tricked you once again,” Lester said and continue to walk while his hands are inside his pocket.

“Why? What happened?” I am curious about their past, and I want to know more about them.

“You will discover it, soon. But for now, go and your instructor is waiting for you. Be ready!” Lester left me so I headed to our room.

“Where have you been yesterday?! You skip from my class!” Our professor yelled at me.

“I… I…”

“Go to the detention now!” She shouted and her eyes is sparkling because of anger. Why so mean, werewolves on the earth?!

I saw Alpha Blaze at the other corner. He is just looking at me like he didn’t know what happened to me yesterday. Why didn’t he explain to this woman the real thing that happened to me yesterday?

I shut the door and went to their detention room. Darkness welcomed me and I sit at the corner. I want to be alone, but I hate staying at dark places.

“You’re already here. Don’t worry you’re not alone.” That voice is from Lester. What is he doing here?

“Why areyou here?” I asked him although I can’t see him.

“You need to marry him and be his mate. That is the only solution for you to beat Dark,” Lester said to my surprise.

Marry the Alpha? Is it a prank? I can’t marry anyone, because once I loved someone, there is a high possibility that he will be destroyed.

“I am the destroyer. How can I love a man?”

“Love is the only answer to your questions. You have sympathy, you’re not really a destroyer,” he said and made me think.

But I am still afraid. I’m afraid of loving a man again, I am cursed. I ant risk his life because of my love, I don’t want to be selfish anymore! This time, I will give importance to his life.

“Your time here is over. We can now go and proceed to our class,” he said and I blink my eyes three times. That means, we are classmates?

“Are we classmates?” I asked him and his answer is only a simple nod.

“Lester, why do you think the world is unfair?” I asked him from the bottom of my heart.

“For you to learn something and be strong,” he utters and show me his sweet smiles.

“How did you recognize me?” I tried to ask him again but he didn’t reply.

“You both get inside!”

All eyes are fixated on us. I Can feel Blaze’ stares and it’s like a double sharp sword that can cut me into pieces.

“Sit here, ugly maid.” Blaze pull the chair next to him.

“She sat here the first day she enters this school. That chair that you pulled belongs to your Beta,” From the other side, Harry stated and tapped the chair beside her.

“The f*ck!”

Blaze stood up and went outside. He is furious and I can feel that bad aura that he has.

I sit beside Harry and Lester waved at me. I don’t the h*ll care if he is mad.

“You’re not going to comfort your Boss?” I heard Harry asked and I only shook my head.

“Why are you hiding your face?” he asked that made my eyes widened.

I look at him with my raised eyebrows. “What do you mean?”

“Nothing. I’m just confused on why did you applied as his maid. He will only use you!”

***

“Do you like that jerk?’ A cold voice asked from my back.

I don’t know if who is he referring to, Is it Harry or Lester?

“Who?” I asked and faced him.

“Harry.” His brows arched.

“No, why?”

“Only a lunatic will dare to be friends with him,” he said and chuckles.

“Why? What kind of werewolf is he?” Out of curiosity, I dared to asked him again.

“Why would I tell you the truth?”

“Tsk. Okay fine, how about Lester? Do you know him?” I asked again and he bite his lower lips.

“Why? You have crush on him? I know you both shared the detention room earlier. Did something happen to you?”

“What the h*ell you’re talking about?” I shouted on him but I was shocked when he pushed me towards the wall and kissed me passionately. What was that for?

I pushed him away but he only laughs. “I can’t read your mind. Remember this, I will kiss you for every time you will shout on me!”

You’re the real jerk! You bastard!

“Get ready, we’ll be leaving at 8:00 pm. Clean yourself and wear a presentable dress. Wear this mask,” he said and throw a box to me. So rude!

“Mask for what?”

“Don’t ask, just follow what I say,” he said and left me dumbfounded.

As I enter my room, I can’t stop from cussing. That man is a jerk!

“Woah!” I was amazed after opening the box he gave to me. I found a light-blue dress and a pink mask that will cover my whole face.

Why am I going to wear this?

“Blaze, can we talk?”

I eavesdrop from the door. Lady Averyl is talking to her son.

“You need to find your mate, and present her to the council. You’re wasting your time!”

Mate? So, Blaze needs his mate as what Lester said before. But he needs a werewolf not a goddess like me.

“I don’t want to have a mate. I don’t want to be an Alpha. Why can’t they give that position to Harry?” Blaze voice rises.

“You are the chosen Alpha, accept your true nature!” his mom answered.

“I am searching for someone. The girl in my dream, she’s the only girl I want to marry. I don’t want to have a mate. I won’t marry a lady, if not her!”

Who’s that girl in his dreams? My heart beats fast. What does it mean?

“So, what are you going to do now?”

“I will bring my maid, and I will introduce her to them. Don’t worry, she’s ugly, I will never fell in love to her, I swear.”

It’s like my heart froze of what I heard. That’s too much, but well that’s a good thing for me not to cause trouble. But what if he saw my real face, will he dare to love me and be his mate for real?

“Just don’t ever try to fall in love with her. She’s ugly and not good to be the next Luna of our pack. She’s weak and fragile!”

I swallowed my saliva and wear the dress together with the mask. I shouldn’t be feeling like this. I dot care about them, I am just a stranger that needs shelter and food, that’s why I accept their offer.

“Ugly… I mean, Shama, are you done changing?” I heard a knock on my door.

“I’m done, give me a few more minutes to fix myself!” I answered back as I brush my hair.

“An intruder enters our territory. They look like a soldier but they have magic, they have powers.”

I heard someone as I step outside my room. It is   his friend.

“Where are they?” Blaze asked.

“They just disappeared. Alpha we need to secured our place. What are we going to do?”

“Lenox, relax. Let’s talk about that later,” Blaze answered. It’s like he didn’t care about it.

Soldiers that have powers? Wait, is it them? Does anyone told them that I am hiding here?

“Shama, you’re really living here?”  I froze as I saw Lenox looking at me.
