Chapter Seventeen The day of the mating announcement came quite too fast for Kesley, she woke up with dread for how the announcement ceremony would go.She had just had lunch which Alpha Dennis prepared like he said and was now sitting alone in the living room with a book she found in one of the rooms in her hand.Kesley stared at the book in her hands but not a single word of it made sense. In fact, the letters seemed so jumbled and blurred that she just had to close it and focus on the dread she'd been trying to push back on her mind.The fear of how the people would react to her being their Luna was heavy on her mind. Although it was all a pretense, only herself and the Alpha knows about it she knew she would have to act like she really is the pack's Luna."How am I supposed to even act like someone I'm not?" She muttered getting up to her feet she strolled the length of the living room pondering and thinking up scenerios of how wrong the mating announcement could go."What have I
Chapter EighteenSean stared hard at her as if he could look right through her.His stare made Kesley shiver in fear, he still had the ability to instill fear in her with just a look.Kesley wanted to smile at him, but the expression simply wouldn't form on her face so she mustered enough courage to give him a stare down too.Whilst their little exchange was on, Dennis was engaged in a discussion with his Beta and turned to her when he was done."It's time to announce our mating." "Isn't it too early, we just got here." Kesley said."Of course not, I do not plan to spend the whole night here, I'll prefer we announce it and get back home, I have a lot of things to do later tonight." He explained and turned just as soon as his Beta mounted the podium. Denis beta, Troy walked up to the stage, "Good evening everyone", he started."Good evening." They all chorused in enthusiasm, leaving all the frivolities to face him, the music playing in the background also stopped."I want to believe
Kelsey trembled in fear, she was scared to go see Dennis's parents, "I...I don't...I don't think... meeting your..your parents right now is fine, I'm not ready," she stuttered.Dennis noticed that she was scared, "But you don't need to be scared?", he asked."What..what if..what if they..they see through our scheme," she replied. "They..they might get to know our plan", she added.Dennis smiled, "Don't worry, they won't think of such", he assured and pulled Kelsey by her hand.Dennis looked back at Kelsey and he could still see the fear in her eyes, he knew that might make his parents suspicious of them so he stopped."What is it again?" he asked.Kelsey still wasn't relieved, she was still scared to go see Dennis's parents, "What if...what if..they what if they don't like me?"she grumbled.Dennis laughed, "They will definitely like you", he assured her.Kelsey sighed and walked with him to meet his parents, they were both standing beside their car and they welcomed her with a big sm
Dennis got home after the long day's work to meet Kelsey in the kitchen cooking.He thought to himself while driving home to ask Kelsey why she doesn't go out for work."Welcome", Kelsey said to him as he got into the house.Dennis nodded and rushed up the stairs, he pulled off his shirt and trousers, picked up his robe and motioned for the bathroom.Dennis stood under the shower as the water flowed down his body.Minutes later, he emerged from the room in his nightwear, he walked down the stairs and on to the dining room, Kelsey had already set the table.Dennis ate in silence as he thought about how to talk to Kelsey about working.He walked back to the main room after eating and waited for Kelsey to finish up what she was doing in the kitchen.Kelsey walked to him after some minutes, "Good night", she murmured and turned to leave."Hey", Dennis called and Kelsey turned back, "I have to discuss something with you", he added, "Take a seat", Dennis muttered pointing to the cushion bes
Kelsey woke up earlier than usual and rushed to the kitchen to prepare breakfast before Alpha Dennis could wake up. She was almost done when she heard his footsteps, he came down the stairs. He walked to the kitchen to bid her goodbye, Kelsey quickly prepared a coffee and handed it over to him, "Good morning", she greeted. He smiled and took the coffee cup from her, he sipped it, "Thank you", he replied and took his seat on the dining table. He watched Kelsey cook and was forced to voice out, "Kelsey", he called. Kelsey stopped what she was doing and ran to him, "You called me" she said, bending her head. "I want you to start behaving like your normal self, I don't want you to become too nice to me, it is uncomfortable", he grumbled. Kelsey kept her head bent, she was unhappy to make him uncomfortable but she was only doing what she felt was right, "I...I don't..I don't just ... want... want to ruin my chances..of ..of going to college" she stammered. Alpha Dennis smiled, "You
Dennis took the lead and Kelsey walked behind him. They strolled to the college registrar's office and while they were approaching the unit, they noticed how the three humans settled at the secretary's station were gawking at them like an appetising meal. The men had their eyes on Kelsey while the woman couldn't take her eyes off Dennis. Kelsey stopped at a corner, a bit far from the prying eyes of the people. She decided to wait for Dennis who had gone to meet the secretary. Dennis walked up to the secretary and flashed a smile. He presented his card to her. "I'm Dennis. The college registrar is expecting me. We spoke this morning." The middle-aged secretary glanced at her wristwatch. "He's having a brief meeting with the departmental heads right now. He'll be done in about five minutes then you can go in. He's expecting you too." Dennis smiled and moved to Kelsey. Her head was lowered and both her hands were on her handbag. "Are you okay?" Kelsey nodded repeatedly. "I'm good, j
Kelsey staggered up and was now on her feet. She felt a sharp pain on her forehead which caused her to groan slightly. She rubbed her forehead with her left palm tenderly and pressed her eyes against each other. She saw a girl about her age, standing before her, slightly groaning too. It was the girl whom she bumped into. Kelsey sighed and took steps toward the red-haired. She began to apologise. "I'm so sorry. I didn't see you. I was trying to stop the cab and... "Are you crazy?" the girl screamed at Kelsey. "Huh? Answer me. Are nuts? Can't you watch where you are going?" she thundered. Kelsey sighed and shook her head. "I didn't bump into you on purpose. I was rushing to get into the cab and before I realised it, I ran into you." she tried to explain. Kelsey watched as the girl's red lips parted. The girl cast her gaze to the ground and Kelsey's attention was drawn to the mess they created when they collided. The girl was holding her books in her hands when they bumped into each
As she watch the girl walkway, it then dawned on Kelsey that she had no idea about her saviour, not even the girl's name was known to her."Hey!" Kelsey screamed and ran after the girl. "Can you stop please?" The girl heard Kelsey screaming after her. She turned around and saw Kelsey running toward her. She stood still.Kelsey got to where the girl was standing. She was panting heavily. "Are you okay?" the girl asked."Yes, I'm good," replied Kelsey while struggling to catch her breath. "I just forgot to ask what your name is."The girl smiled. "It doesn't matter," she responded."Of course it does. I don't know whether I mentioned it earlier that my name is Kelsey." She extended her right hand to the girl.The girl smiled and took Kelsey's hand. "I know who you are, Kelsey."Kelsey was stunned. "You know me...I mean, you...You know who I am?" she stammered.The girl smiled and moved closer to Kelsey. "Of course, I know who you are?"Kelsey quirked her brow, trying to recollect whet
