ValenIt took him a minutes or more before he finally uttered another word. “What are you doing here?” His voice was cold as ice. I expected much from him. “You know the rules quite well” He added. I marched forward my steps making small incoherent sounds. I stopped few inches from where he was standing. “Rules are rules. They can't stay intact forever. They're bound to be broken one day” I said with equal tone. His eyes lingers on me for a while as if he was in deep thought. The corner of my lips twitched up into a fake smile. Deep down my heart was beating in it's ribcage. But I can't let my emotions out. Funny enough we've not seen each other for how many years but the fears is still there. The fear of coming face to face with my father. I thought I won't have that feeling again. I thought I've grown strong in the years but now everything is coming back to me. I have not discarded it completely but have put it at bay. I found my way and crashed on the couch making him to turned
GiannaI was still tied up in bed in the name of getting better. I've told Maria’s grandmother and Maria herself that I'm all healed up but they won't listen. They keep telling me to rest in bed. I feel like I'm in a house arrest. I don't get out of bed unless I want to eat, take my bath or change out of my outfit. Is that not house arrest. And ever since Maria told me Valen came, I couldn't stay calm. I want to know how he is. Whether he's okay. My mind was occupied with his thoughts day and night. We didn't get any news from the Alpha whether the competition will still go on or not. No any news. This time around, I won't stay idle. Maria’s grandma was avoiding me on purpose. There's something she's not telling me. Why Valen came? Was it because of his curse or something else. I have a lot of question that I needed the answer to. I tossed out the covers from my body and made a walk out of the room. The living room was quite. The smell of burnt gum occupied my nostrils almost gaggin
Valerio“Master I don't think you've made the right choice. It's dangerous here. Your hea-” I was quick in cutting him off. “You don't have to worry about anything Andy. Just do as I say. Mrs. Marissa will help us” “But Ma-”“Do you trust me?” I asked. “I do. I have never doubt your intention but this time around I'm not sure we’re doing the right thing” A small smile found it's way out of my lips. “Just trust me. Mrs. Marissa said we should give her a day and she will find a way for me to stay at the pack” I remembered how our conversation ended. I don't want to tell Andy or Cindy the truth for them to worry. FlashbackShe didn't say anything for a while. Only kept looking at me with a nervous expression. “I will take your silence as approval. So what are we starting with?”“Prince Valen, I'm not saying I won't help you or I don't have the power to. But it's something very crucial. It might work but it will come with it's odd”Great. At least she didn't say there is no way out. T
GinaAs per Mrs. Marissa's instructions, I came back at early morning. Maria was still sleeping so she has no idea I went out. I crawled back to bed again. I didn't get to sleep that much in the night. For the second time, I slept in Valerio's room. After the small argument. I don't know whether I should call it argument because it wasn't that serious. Let's say for my part. As for Valerio, I know he's only holding himself back. Deep down he's scared. He doesn't want to admit it. I have grown to get used to him. I don't want him falling into any difficult situation. At some point we share similar past misfortune. I got separated from my parents at a little age. Same goes to him. We're both orphans in some kind way. I don't know whether what he's planning on doing will work out but I will support him in whatever. I want to be there for him. Forget that I'm weak, a lowly omega without a mate. I feel myself when I'm with Valerio. Maybe I'm destined to stay without a mate. Who knows I mi
Valen"Master I've made the necessary preparations" Andy announced. We've found a place to lodge at. Mrs. Marissa and Adelaide we're kind enough to help with protection. You know, I can't stay in the pack normally. It has to be based on protection. The two woman have given me all what they could offer as sorcerers. At least I know I will be fine staying at the pack without the need of waiting for the full moon. Although I don't know what the consequences might be later on. I feel like Adelaide knew something. She just doesn't want to tell me. "Okay, you can go ahead with the girls. I will follow suit" I responded. Andy nodded his head in answer before Cindy and Anabel followed him out. I sauntered up to my room walking straight towards my desk drawer. I took out the small box. It has been there since the first day I came to Mont Givana. It was given to me by my mother when I celebrated my tenth birthday. How I didn't find her words fishy that day. This locket will protect you in th
GiannaOkay I'm not angry. Maybe I'm not that angry but after catching Anabel red handed. I can't believe Valerio is planning things behind my back. I didn't only push her into telling me a bit of it. But all. From how it started to the end of it. “Um.. Gianna I don't think it's the right time for you to go there. Master mig-”“Keep quite” I stopped to intake a sharp breath. “What if I wasn't the one who heard you. What if it was someone else. Things would've been bad” I know if it was Selena or Vanessa, Lady Hera will definitely hear it. And if Lady Hera knows, Alpha will know which will put Valerio in a problem. I didn't give her a room for explanation. I don't think I will be patient to wait till another time to meet him. It's better to set things straight as early as possible. Anabel lead the way to the said house Valerio is staying. Surprise consumed me when I found us walking farther away from the Alpha’s house. If someone didn't tell you, you wouldn't know a house existed ther
ValenI don't know whether the moon goddess is trying to change my destiny by bringing Gianna in my life. My life is getting tougher by the day due to our disagreement. She doesn't want to understand where I'm trying to go. She's still naive about everything. No one wants to understand me. Not Gianna, not Adelaide and not Andy. No one knows my father better than I. I know his capabilities. In as much as he's stubborn, I am too. That is something I will say I inherited from him. Andy has gotten me all the information I needed regarding the activities of my father at the city. Like I expected, he has his motives. He wants to use the girls in exchange to get into the white house. Don't he have a slight sympathy in him. They also have their families. The same way he has his. Although I won't call that a family. He destroyed that himself. "Master?" My attention was diverted by the voice of Cindy holding the cup of coffee I asked her to get me in front of my face. "Thank you Cindy" I sai
GiannaI don't know why I was getting nervous when Mrs. Marissa request for my presence. What made me more anxious was the expression on Maria's face. Her behavior was kind of off. Before she would be all giddy up. But she only deliver the message and walk away. Even Anabel sensed her changed demeanor. I made a mental note to speak to her about it later. We have few hours to leave for the city. The Alpha hasn't announced who he would be taking to the city yet. I've done my best in convincing some of the girls. And I got a reasonable feedback. I choose not to speak to Selena about it knowing she won't even agree. And telling her about our plan is as good as letting the Alpha know. At first Vanessa wasn't convinced. I don't know what changed her mind. I warned her not to mention anything to Selena. I know they're not on good terms with each but to be on a safer side.So, things are moving according to plan currently. I exhaled out a deep breath before turning the door knob and stepping
