00011 : Taking A Tour

MERIDAI still couldn't believe he could do such a thing to me even when he left , I was still feeling embarrassed.My stomach rumbled again and with the little strength I had left , I pushed the door open , my eyes meeting the spiral staircase which made my eyes water.I took a step at a time and the smell of freshly brewed coffee flew into my nose making me salivate. I told myself this morning that I could stuff myself with just enough food .As I came to the dining hall I momentarily forgot about Alpha Lukan and I wanted to grab every piece of fried chicken that was on the table.There were dessert and appetizers , coffee and toast , just anything to make one go crazy.Back home I never had any of this and I wanted to start eating right away. I was still in last night's clothes and I really wanted something to eat. I knew I was supposed to have showered before having breakfast , but I was about to faint from the hunger that was crawling at the sides of my stomach. "Merida."I hear

00012 : Tension At The Dinner Table.

MERIDA I blinked , the sun on my face and I squinted. My leg sting from the pain which drove through meLemuel stood awkwardly beside me, he glanced at an angry Lukan and then back to me, as though unsure whether to help me up or not. "Lukan!" I gasped, my voice cracking , this was the first time I was calling him by his name.He stood there, staring down at us, his eyes narrowed, his jaw clenched. There was something funny in the way he looked at Lemuel, as if the very idea of us together made him angry.I tried to scramble to my feet, but my leg throbbed, and I winced, I stayed put. “I... I tripped,” I stammered, trying to explain. “It was an accident.” Lemuel quickly nodded, his face pale. His cheeks flushed “Yeah, she fell. I was just—”“Just what ?" Lukan's voice was cold and low.He didn’t seem interested in Lemuel’s explanation, nor mine. The way he looked between the two of us, there was something else swirling in his mind—something I didn't think was possible. Jealo

00013 : Red Wine And Red Flags

LUKAN.I took a sip from the wine flute , from the corner of my eyes , I could see Merida stealing glances at Lemuel. My wolf gave a silent growl and I wonder what's with all this nonsense. I really don't want to feel that I was probably getting jealous .Hell no !But she was already getting used to Lemuel in just two days , I looked away angrily trying to hide my anger though.Lemuel's and Zayna's chatter filled the air , they were also getting ready to become mates . I almost laughed , it feels so absurd.I clicked against the empty wine flute with my fork drawing attention to myself. Everyone stared at me and the hushed discussion paused.Better .I cleared my throat and looked around for sometime , Merida stared at me before looking down at her food."I have some very important news to share with everyone." I announced and from the corner of my eyes I could see mother beaming . " All preparations have been made,"I said after a few seconds. "Preparations?"Lemuel asked and he exch

Too bad I won't be wearing it ever again.*"She couldn't hold the glass properly." * Zayna had said but she was lying and I couldn't say anything ,just anything to defend myself.As usual my tongue betrayed laying limp and dry in my mouth tasting like dry paper ."Yes, I should go and change." I said and I glanced up to see Zayna smiling at me.As I went up the stairs , Zayna light elegant steps echoed behind me .I could see the way Lukan was staring at me , I saw that silent anger in his eyes , he was quite irritated that I couldn't even defend myself."What a magnificent bedroom." Zayna said, looking around."Thank you." I said sheepishly."Not you . I was complimenting the room." She intoned , her voice so sweet for someone that mean. She had poured the wine on me on purpose but I just couldn't say anything.I went to the wardrobe ,I guess I had no idea why

00016: Wedding Dresses And Insults

LUKAN"Why did you take so much time in the bathroom?" I asked Merida who was sitting before the dresser staring at the beauty collection before her , clueless on what to do .Her hair was raised high on her head in elegant waves and the fish tail gree gown made her look kind of beautiful, I could have been better if the gown hugged her curves but there was nothing."Because , I like —" Again she trail off and I wasn't bothered to continue with the discussion. "So green is your favorite color ?" I asked after a few minutes trying to pick up a conversation with her and make her say something. She had been quiet all day and she jumped , I rolled my eyes .She turned to look at me confused and clueless, if only there were awards given to people who are clueless , Merida would definitely top the chart."What—" She asked ."Don't bother." I said looking at her from the corner of my eyes , she was lost in thoughts and during breakfast I had caught her stealing glances at me.I knew some

00017 : At Ease

LUKAN ."Let's go ," I said, taking her by the hand. I got the door open and had her go in first ."Don't do that ." I said my voice low and flat , she couldn't look up at me but I knew she was about to start crying.Feminine wiles.I hate it , she couldn't do anything to stop those girls , I can't defend her every single day and every time."To the jewelry store, Alpha?" The driver asked, staring at me from the rearview mirror."No." I intoned." Don't bother , the day is far spent, I will make an order. Just take us to the pack house."He gave a small nod and the car sped away .I glanced at Merida, she was no longer crying, she was looking out of the window and it had already started drizzling.Soon we were at the pack house and she followed soundlessly behind me ."You can go upstairs." I said nodding to the room."I have something very important to discuss with Julietta, you can come down for lunch .""Okay." "I guess Rosita had brought your personal maid to you ." I asked, starin

00018: The Highest Bidder's Secret

MERIDA. I couldn't sleep last night. I kept turning and tossing softly on the bed trying hard not to hit Lukan who was sleeping soundly . I didn't know which of my thoughts kept me awake or which of the fears I harbored within me that had stolen sleep from me. The thoughts that Zayna and Lukan had confused me with their words. I was quite scared now . *.... and I think I'm responsible for her death* And now I was sitting before the dresser as the make up artist applied layers and layers of makeup on my face and the hairstylist styled my hair up in elegant waves. I stared back at my reflection.A different woman , more beautiful with almond shaped eyes stared back at me. Maybe this was the reason why I couldn't sleep because today was the wedding. The bonding ceremony. "You look beautiful." The make-up artist said , a huge smile on her face . Slowly I got up and they pushed the hem of my dress far behind me so as not to trip on them. "Thank you." I said , my voice l

00019: What I Never Expected

MERIDA I stuttered.I couldn't believe what I had just heard . I prayed silently that it was from me , that I heard him wrongly, that my hearing was faulty.If it was true that he was speaking to someone at the other end,a woman obviously , then I definitely don't know this man I was mated to.Why now ?Why hadn't he showed me that he had no feelings for me , not an atom of love .Does that mean that there was actually mate number sixteen and that he was speaking to her .*...don't forget*I heard that too.I moved back a little , I wanted to run away to pretend that I didn't hear him speaking to the woman at the other end .He loves her , obviously , he was smiling.I don't know what to do right now , I can't break down in tears and I couldn't feel pity for myself even when I tried to .I had to stick with him , being here by his side was better than going back to Frostclaw Pack.There was peace, a sense of belonging , I got to see other people not standing weeks locked down in th
