Lily’s POVI stayed in front of the kitchen doors for a while, wondering why Logan told me not to leave the kitchen. He looked serious saying it and I decided to listen to him and not leave until he came to get me himself. I didn't want to piss him off. I opened the door to see the kitchen bustling with quite a number of servants busy with different things and brushing past each other. The kitchen was very busy unlike the last time I was here. I didn't know what to do or where to go so I just watched everyone do their thing. "Hey, you! Why aren't you doing anything?" An old woman who looked like the head cook asked me. I was about to respond when she pointed her spatula at me. "There's a lot to do today and the Alpha’s visitors are already here. We need to feed them immediately." "Come and stir these eggs together and fry them." She added before turning to another servant, telling her to fry the chicken well. I guessed right, she was the head cook. I furrowed my eyebrows together
Lily's POVEveryone in the kitchen gasped as soon as Valerie mentioned that I would be serving the Alpha’s cousin. "That won't be possible, Luna. I don't think she'll be able to do that." Avery said to Valerie. "The Alpha gave me an order to make sure I'm the one that gets to serve his cousin. I'd be going against his orders if you decide to assign someone else to do it." Valerie scoffed. "You worry too much, Avery. I'm just coming from Logan's study and he told me to be in charge here. Relax, you won't be going against his orders." "As for you." She said, pointing at me again. "You'll be serving the Alpha’s cousin just like I said earlier." "I will not be doing that." I said firmly. Logan had told me not to leave the kitchen no matter what and there's no way I'd listen to this bitch trying to make me get on his bad side. "I'm your Luna! The true mate of the Alpha. When I order you to do something, you do it!" Valerie growled out, her wolf almost coming out. "Just do as she wa
Logan’s PovFrom the moment Lily walked into the dining hall, all I felt was anger. I had warned her not to leave the kitchen and I didn't know what I was thinking, expecting that she would listen to me. I was so angry that I didn't want to see her face. She wasn't supposed to reveal herself to the park members yet. To make matters worse, she walked all the way to Caleb's table, serving him his food.I had told Avery to make sure she's the one that serves Caleb his food, not the female servants and definitely not Lily. Caleb was the main reason I had told Lily to stay in the kitchen. It was the only safe space I could think of where Caleb's prying eyes wouldn't reach. I knew the purpose of his visit was because he knew that I had found my mate and she was a rogue. How the information got to him, I didn't know because we don't stay in the same park and he wasn't here when I found Lily. Leo wasn't happy that I ignored the fact that Lily was in the hall with us but I wasn't ready to
Lily’s POV My body was on fire and I didn't know why. It all started from when Caleb had his arms wrapped around my waist, the touch felt wrong and revolting. I closed my eyes to get rid of the disgusting sensation I was feeling but by the time I opened it, Logan had pinned Caleb on the table. I thought he didn't care but why did he attack him? He confuses me a lot. I couldn't pay attention to what they were saying because of the pain I started to feel but I could hear whimpering sounds, not knowing that it was coming from me. "Was it because Caleb touched me that I'm feeling this much pain? Or, what's going on?" I thought to myself. I couldn't bear it anymore and walked up to Logan, begging him to let go of Caleb to see if he'd notice that something was off with me. He didn't let go of him the first time and after telling me to take me out of the dining hall must have noticed something was wrong because the next thing he did was lift me up and run out of the hall. I felt my bac
Lily’s POV My wolf was beautiful beyond comparison and I wasn't expecting it to be white. I turned to my side over and over again, checking it out. I was neither too big nor too small. I was like the normal average sized wolf. I splashed the water with my paw happily and all of a sudden, I felt like swimming but not in my wolf form. "Laura, how do I go back to my human form?" I asked my wolf, not sure about how to go about it."Oh, it's pretty easy, just imagine yourself in your human form." "That's just it? Would it be as painful as earlier?" I asked, I really don't want to ever feel what I felt when I was shifting to my wolf.Laura chuckled. "No, it won't be painful. I'll be here to make it easier for you so just close your eyes and picture your human form." I closed my eyes and my bones started to snap and pop. I felt my body coming back in place and by the time I opened my eyes, I was in my human form. It wasn't actually so painful but it was uncomfortable. I was naked and q
Logan’s POVI stood in the woods, breathing heavily. "Fuck! What is going on!? What is Lily doing to me? She's messing with my head and I hate it." I paced back and forth, trying to calm myself down but my dick didn't cooperate with me. It was still hard and twitched with every thought of Lily. I didn't expect her body to be that soft and perfectly fit into mine.Her scent drove me crazy and all I wanted to do was bend her over while I knot into her. It would have been perfect. "No!" I roared, bunching my hair in my fist. There's no way that would ever happen. I need to find Valerie for a release. I need to stop thinking about Lily because nothing is ever going to happen between us. She can only try to get into my head. I was glad that was able to control myself and leave her immediately. I looked behind some of the trees and I found shorts. I quickly put it on and adjusted my dick so it won't be noticeable by others. I grunted in satisfaction as I was able to put it in place. All
Logan’s POVI was beyond livid andi had to leave Mia before I'd do what I'd later regret. I could feel anger rolling off me in waves which made me stand in the hallway and almost growled out in frustration.I had to hold myself back because I was inside and my growl could actually make a part of the building collapse. Instead, I faced the wall and punched it over and over as what happened years ago resurfaced again. The Past****My dad was a very fun Alpha, he wasn't scary and people loved to be around him. My mum was also just the same as he was. They led the park in a very peaceful way. We never had to fight wars or have issues with the neighboring parks because before things would go south, my parents would have found a fix and the conflict would get resolved. Things started to change when my dad started receiving threat letters, telling him to start preparing for war. He didn't know where they were being sent from and it was very alarming. He held several meetings with different
Lily’s POVI dragged my feet back to the castle naked, not caring if anyone sees me. I was exhausted from shifting and my body was sore. I forced the thought of how Logan pushed me away like I had acid on my body out of my head. I didn't want to think about it. I got to the front of his room, took in a deep breath and opened it. His scent wasn't strong which meant that he wasn't in the room. I was relieved and disappointed. I shouldn't be, but I was. I quickly had a shower and crawled into my bed but I couldn't sleep. I kept turning and tossing. I was restless. I could tell Logan wasn't back because I left the door of my room opened so I could hear when he walked in."Argh! Why can't I sleep?" I pulled on my hair before pushing the covers off my body and groaned out in frustration before leaving the room to go on a walk, to see if I'd be able to clear my head.I didn't know where I was going because I wasn't totally familiar with the insides. The plan initially was to go to the kit
Lily’s POVAfter running for about an hour, I stopped to catch my breath under a tree. I sat down and ignored the splinters of dry woods cutting into my skin. I rubbed my wrists together, smiling as the raw bruises had started to heal well. In about two days, there would be no sign that I had an injury there. These are the perks that come with having your wolf. Everything becomes different. Your senses become heightened, you heal faster and become stronger. You just become complete and I was really glad to have my wolf back. My stomach growled in hunger and I realised that I hadn't eaten. "I should have eaten before I left." I muttered to myself standing up and looking for trees with fruits. Few hours later, I hadn't found anything to eat. The fruits I was seeing looked really sus. Either they had a weird shape or colour and I was being careful not to eat something that would take my life. There was no one out there to help me if I got poisoned. It is better to starve than eat some
Lily’s POV "You've been staring at me for a while. Are you going to give me an answer or not?" He said, bringing out a small key and dangling it in my face. "I can unlock these chains and set you free if you want." "How did you get that key? Did Logan send you here to do this on his behalf? Or why exactly are you doing this? Why are you trying to help me?" I asked, curious and confused. "Why are you asking so many questions!?" He sneered as he bent to my level ahd I could tell he was glaring at me behind the mask. "Just answer the damn question with 1 yes or no." "I'll answer after you answer my own questions. You don't just expect me to accept your offer just like that. If I had agreed to say yes, I'm very sure there's a condition attached to it. I want to know why you're helping me and what you want in return.""Oh, nice. You're actually smart. Minutes ago, I thought otherwise. I'm just trying to do you a favour here. With the way the Alpha treats you, I'm sure you're tired of h
Lily's Pov. The room was very hot and I laid in my own sweat and tears. I was sticky all over and I wished I hadn't locked my windows earlier. I perked my ears up whenever I heard a sound, hoping it was Logan coming to free me but it was never him. I have waited for so long and I was starting to get tired. I couldn't just sit and wait, I had to do something. I brought my wrist closer to my mouth, and pulled on the knots of the rope with my teeth, trying to loosen it. It was very uncomfortable and my neck was hurting badly but I still continued to try. I tried to reach my wolf again, so we could combine our strengths and work on escaping together but she didn't respond. I needed my fangs badly and there was no way I could shift without connecting to her. I didn't give up because of that but continued to gnaw on the rope. I didn't know how I was going to escape from the room but I just wanted to be free from the ropes on my wrists. I chomped on the rope harder, ignoring the pain t
Lily’s POV. My wolf whined inside me as different images ran through my mind. "Why is Logan holding chains? What does he plan to do with it?" I asked myself like I didn't know already. I staggered back, hiding myself behind the curtains hoping it would hide me from him. Logan stalked closer to me like I was a prey, his eyes full of anger, disgust and hatred. "Stay away from…me! Stand back!" I stammered weakly but my wolf had other plans. She tried to take control, fangs popping through my gums. She was angry with Logan for protecting another female and also won't allow him to tie her down because of her. Logan dropped the chains he was holding and pulled on my hair, yanking it hard and making me feel a sharp pain in my head. It became worse because I hadn't healed from the first injury. "Listen close to me, rogue wolf, I'm not here to play like that. If you dare try to flash your fangs at me again, I'll tear you so fast into pieces." I forced my wolf back inside of me and my
Lily’s POV We got back to the castle without any of us talking to each other. I was trying to get my mind off the fact that he had sex with Valerie without feeling remorseful while all I felt was pain. How long do I have to deal with this? He doesn't want me but he's keeping me around and messing with my emotions. I hated that mate bond is making things pretty difficult for me because I couldn't get him out of my head. I sniffed, wiping my tears. There's no way I would waste my tears on someone that wasn't worth it. We got to the front of his room only to see Valerie standing there. As soon as she saw me, she smirked at me before running to Logan. She pressed a kiss on his lips, smiling. "Where did you go? I woke up to see that you have left. How could you leave like that after the hot night we spent together. I wasn't even done with you and there's more to come. I'm also sure you want more of me." She purred, rubbing her hands over his chest. My wolf was scratching against me, s
Lily’s POV "What is wrong with you!? Why can't you just listen to me that she has nothing to do with this. I forced her here, so take me instead." "The man who was holding Hannah stood in front of me. How dare you question the Alpha." He snarled and Logan shoved him off, telling him to leave immediately. He glared at me once again before he dragged Hannah with him.I wasn't just going to let him take Hannah with him so I followed them, only for Logan to hold me back. "Let go of me right now! Leave me alone." I screamed, thrashing around but he just flipped me and pinned me to the ground. My face was in the dirt and he held my hands tightly behind me. I cried out, watching the man drag Hannah away with him till they were out of sight. After Logan was sure they were gone, he pulled me back up. "What is wrong with you? Why are you acting up?" "Why did you hold me back?" I sniffed, cleaning my tears. Where did he take Hannah to? Are you going to lock her up and beat her just like you
Lily’s POVI and Hannah both went still as the footsteps got closer. "Didn't you say the soldiers don't reach here when they're on patrol?" I asked, trying to stand up but only for me to realize that I've sprained my ankle. "They don't. They really don't." Hannah replied, rushing to my side to help me up. "You're hurt, you need to sit down and let your leg heal." "I can't! Someone's out there and we don't know who, what if it's a dangerous animal?"Hannah rolled her eyes. "Really? Have you forgotten that we're actual wolves? The 'wild animal’ stands no chance against us. I'll bring it down with a swipe of my claw." "This isn't the right time to joke hannah. We can't be caught or we'll be in trouble." I said, rubbing my forehead. "Why would we be in trouble? It's not like this place is actually out of bounds like the forest next to the training ground. The Alpha would have informed us if he didn't want us to run here." "Hold on. The forest next to the training ground is out of b
Lily’s POVThe night went by pretty fast and that was thanks to Logan's sister who I later found out that her name was Mia. She is the complete opposite of Logan and I felt better after we talked. I wished she could just start living with us in the castle but she told me she couldn't because she had her own park and mate but she promised to visit and check up on me often and I was glad. We couldn't continue our conversation about Logan because Hannah came into the kitchen to start prepping some meals for the day so we had to put a hold to it. I didn't bother going back to my room because I knew that there was no way I was going to sleep after seeing Logan and Valerie have sex so I just joined Hannah in prepping the meals as soon as Mia left. When we finished, Hannah served us some food and asked me to follow her. She led me towards the back door of the kitchen and when she opened it, I saw a number of servants sitting on patches of grass, talking to each other and laughing. They s
