31; Sizzling tension.

31- “Sizzling tension.”.Camilla Castello.His deep, forest green eyes held mine in a look that lasted longer than a few, mere seconds. I could feel his warm, minty breath on me, and I’m certain he could feel mine as well. We were mere inches away, and any movement of me upwards, and him downwards, and the story would change.His hand was still on the book on the top shelf, the other on the shelf beside me, practically caging me in. The warmth from his body which I hadn’t felt in so long rolled off in waves, and I would be lying if I said my body didn’t tingle at the action. His scent, stronger than I’d remembered wafted the air, filling my sense with the woody, and musky scent, overtaking my senses as a whole.My feet curled as I took in a greedy breath, my heart rate spiking while I fisted my hand by the side. My fingers, upon having him so close etch to just raise upwards at run them through his messy hair that now fall over his forehead in curls, framing the forehead in a tousled

32; Old Friendships.

31- “Old friendships.”.Camilla Castello.By the time I left the library, I was pretty much flustered even though I tried to hide it. However, the blood rushing through my cheeks and the clenched fist by my side pretty much said a lot about that which I tried to keep hidden. Thankfully, there were no people in the hall, which saved me the embarrassment of them being curious as to why I’d be looking that way.Bringing the back of my hand to my cheeks, I tried to pat it in other to get rid of the red tint there no doubt, all the while trying to put as much distance away from the library as humanely, or in this case, as wolf-ly as possible. However, just as I’d taken a turn, about to fully leave the lane leading to the secluded library, I came to a stop when I spotted a familiar face approaching.He had his gaze set on his phone, but upon hearing the halt of footsteps, he looked up, and our gazes clashed. I’d already realized it was him, even without seeing his face. The mop of brown hai

33; He is...

31- “He is...”.Camilla Castello.My brows drew in, wondering what he’s suddenly into being honest about. “What is it?” I inquired, my lips slanted into a small frown.Caleb sighed, seemingly hesitating for a few seconds while his fingers still lined the rim of the coffee cup in a circular motion, then it stopped, and he met my gaze again. “You know we were friends before all of this, right?” He started, earning a nod from me. I didn’t say a thing, I just allowed him to carry on. He continued, his stern gaze meeting mine. “I know you, Camilla. Or I would like to believe I do. And as so, I doubt you showing up here after seven years of being absent is a coincidence as well.” He was doubting me, it’s so obvious from his tone.I smiled softly, before letting out a small scoff under my breath, my gaze flicking to my half drunken coffee. Bringing it to my lips again, I took another sip, before meeting his gaze. “That’s way too obvious, is it not?” I offered him another smile. “It cannot be

34; Planning Ahead.

34- “Planning Ahead.” Camilla Castello. I spent the rest of the day alone, watching the guests from afar and drawing my inferences on each of them—specifically, the ladies or should I say, Lunas and partners of the Vampire leaders. You know, sometimes stuff you read on paper is different from how people truly are in real life, so, I wanted a kind of overlook before we all meet together—so I can know how to approach certain people, what to do, what to avoid, and how to handle them. Once I deemed myself of enough knowledge of them all from an onlooker’s point of view, I made my way back to my room, where the slideshow of information on them given to me by Ria awaits me. The three are still not back from their meeting, or wherever they decided to venture afterwards but I did not mind. The alone times gives me space to gather my thoughts and do my own thing free of them. My dinner was delivered to my room—upon Cassain’s instruction according to the person that brought it. I am not fool

35; Threat or Not.

35- “Threat or Not.”Adrian Moretti.“You have met her?” Caleb inquired, surprise lacing his tone as he followed me with his questioning gaze, his eyes dilated slightly, “Like one on one, just the two of you together?” He elaborated, wanting to get the full concept of what transpired properly.I hummed, nodding my head as I fixed my necktie in place to perfection, before picking up the suit jacket to shrug it on. “In the library, yes,” I confirmed what I had already told him. “I ran into her there and we talked.” I would like to say we did more than talking, but that was truly all we did—even if there were some indirect implications in our conversation that has me feeling the same way I felt around her again earlier.Fuck. I tried to shoo those thoughts away, reminding myself that there’s more to what our relationship was then just physical intimacy. Though the sizzling tension between us earlier was hard to miss, and I find myself wondering whether she felt the same thing I felt. Did

36.1 ; Mates and Partners.

34- “Mates and Partners.”Adrian Moretti.“This is just a meeting, a formality of some sorts so all you two need to do is hold up conversation for a short while, before you leave if you want to,” Caleb focused his attention on me when he said this, “and I know you want to, so please hold it in for just thirty minutes at least.”I sighed, looking away as I shook my head before meeting his gaze again, “Remind me again why I am doing this?” I inquired, running a hand over my growing beard as I grumbled the words out, because like he said, I want nothing to do there.Caleb gave me a deadpanned look, “Because you are the Alpha King now, and you need to be on good terms with the Alphas underneath you,” He responded, as if it is the most logical thing ever, “Besides, these three Alphas are the most powerful under you so you will need them sooner or later. With the way things are now, they are a little bit wary of you considering how things ended with…” He trailed off, his head tilted to the

36.2; Mates and Partners.

Adrian Moretti.Why do I have to get them to soften up to me? There is no need for that. All they need to do is follow me and be the good subordinates they are, nothing more.You might think it is wrong for the king to have these thoughts, but you will understand when we meet the said people. I have a reason for having that belief, a valid reason I would like to believe but you will get it later on.The drive to the restaurant where the reservation as made took a little over twenty minutes away from the resort. We could have just had the meeting there considering everyone is there, but there are too many eyes there, so we are seeking privacy in a place where there will be more security—a place where there are many humans, so we would blend in just like any other humans having business meetings at night.Upon arriving at the restaurant, Caleb remained in the car with the driver leaving Roseline and I to make our way in. When we stepped out and I rounded the car, she slipped her hand ar

37; Promises.

37- “Promises.” Adrian Moretti.Alpha Harden chuckled, as if he did not just say something wrong. “I mean…” He grumbled out in his deep voice, his expression filled with amusement. “…I am just relaying the worries of your loyal subjects, Your Highness.” The mocking tone of his is hard to miss. “You were well known for your player ways back in the day, and I am not saying there is anything wrong with having a rendezvous, I mean, who can live with just one woman? Right?” He released another chuckle, somehow the bullshit his mouth is spilling is making sense to his ears.The Alpha beside him, Kieran picked it up from there. “He is right.” He nodded, and though he was not holding up a smile whatsoever, he was not any better than the other man. “It is good to have as many woman as you want, but it is also better to have at least one good one that can hold up the Luna position. And though miss Roseline here has been playing the role, there has been concerns regarding her…origin.”From the

38; Setting Targets.

38- “Setting Targets.”Camilla Castello.“That is Alpha Harden of Shadow Hunters and Alpha Kieran of Night Claws.” Cassain said, as both our gazes were fixed on the two men that were just having a meeting with Adrian and Roseline until the two left them alone, and by the looks of it, they were left fuming. “From what I know, Harden is trying to make his daughter the next official Luna Queen,” Cassain added, giving me more information on the two there.I did not ask him, even though I wanted to. He obviously heard my thoughts, and did the honors of telling me about them even without asking, saving me the expense of doing so, which I genuinely appreciated.I know the two by face—so I know who they are. What I did not know though is Alpha Harden’s attempt at trying to make his daughter the Luna Queen, that is news to me. And the knowledge registering in my mind had a couple of ideas floating in it.Cassain turned around, his gaze fixed on me—his expression serious as he carried on. “My g

39; For Camilla.

39- “For Camilla.”Adrian Moretti.“Adrian,” Roseline called out softly, her tone low as she followed me into my suite, making sure to close the door behind her. When I did not stop, she called out again, her tone a bit more stern this time around. “Adrian.” She repeated, her voice raising slightly so as to gain my attention.My hand that I had reached out to loosen the tie around my neck, suddenly feeling suffocated stopped as I closed my eyes shut, releasing a sharp breath. I halted in my tracks, though still not turning around to look at her. It was obvious from my action that she is the reason why I stopped, so I am listening to whatever she is saying, even if I do not want to knowing what she will say.She was silent for a few seconds, before she called out again, this time drawling it out. “Adrian,” Her tone was so many layers of soft, probably softer than anyone would ever expect her to be. I heard her footsteps as she closed the distance between us, standing just a few inches
