His eyes took in each of her smallest moves and changes in expression.Her breathing shortened as she raised her hand to touch her neck lightly. She pulled her lip into a thin line before resuming her original smile."Well, humans need a variety of experiences in their life to make it colorful. And you saved me. It almost made my heart flutter," Serenity commented. She thought that she was becoming a professional at pleasing her boss."You are lucky that the pack needs a doctor or else I would have been the first one to get rid of you," Kieran threatened.Serenity nodded.One thing Serenity had been really good at from a young age was observing people and knowing their emotions. Although the Alpha was good at managing his emotions, she could still make a faint idea of how his character was.Earlier, he had gotten really mad at that woman for hurting her and let her hide behind him. Even his voice that sounded so cold and rough earlier softened slightly now.He must not be completely l
After running a few tests on the boy with all the equipment present, she gave him some fever reducers, and a couple other medicines. She knew that it was important to run a blood test to get a more accurate idea of his state, but the infirmary wasn't in a proper state for her to do so."Take these for a week. And keep a close eye on his condition. Bring him to me immediately if his state worsens. The infirmary needs to be set up before conducting other tests," Serenity explained.Kate nodded."Thank you, doctor," she expressed.Serenity extended her hand to pat the boy's head and commented, "Take care of yourself. And be sure to rest well and eat well."The boy obediently nodded his head.Following that, Kate left the infirmary with her son. Seeing how it was quite late, she didn't expect to get any more patient and was about to leave when she heard the knocks on the door.She turned her head to find Richard standing there. He stepped into the room and asked, "Are you done for the day
The next couple days passed by awfully peacefully and quietly for Serenity. She had all the pack members collectively avoid her whether it was out of disdain or wary about her being a human and an outsider. No one visited the third floor, and she was left to her own devices the entire time.Although Serenity had no issue being on her own, things were being a little too boring by her standard as well. The monotonous lifestyle was getting to her bad.Serenity took her sweet time in getting dressed for the day, knowing that no one will be visiting her once again. The only reason she bothered to go to her office was because of her sense of responsibility.Most importantly, that was where her meal would be delivered.Otherwise, with how cold it is out here, she wouldn't bother to get out of the bed.The days were slowly starting to get colder. Serenity made sure to be well-insulated and put on enough layers to allow her to function well before stepping out of her room.Although the pack w
Getting into the moment with the rest of the pack, Serenity started to cheer for the werewolves she supported. Since she didn't know either of them, her reason was as shallow as how pleasing they looked in her eyes.She whistled and hollered to her content, knowing that her voice would get drowned by the loud shouts below. The rush of adrenaline travelling through her veins only hyped her up further."The Alpha and Beta will go against each other now! That's the best part!" The kid stood on his toes as his eyes remained fixated on the field."That sounds fun." Serenity grinned.She was looking forward to the Beta putting that arrogant Alpha to his place although there was hardly any chance of that happening."Beta Richard, I am on your side!" she expressed. "Go and beat him up."Creases formed between both the brows of the child while he swiftly turned his head to look at Serenity. "Do you not like the Alpha?""Why would I not like him? I like him a lot." Serenity lied without any res
A yawn left her mouth as Serenity lifted her head from the table. She stretched her arms. Resting her head on them caused ache to permeate through them. Her head felt heavy while she checked her phone to read the time.It was around two at night.Serenity turned her head to find that the window was open. The darkness outside fell into her line of sight, and there was a huge, mysterious forest on the horizon. The wind blew in, causing the curtain to dance, along with carrying the cries of various night creatures.Chill travelled down Serenity's spine, finding this to be a little creepy.Knowing that her thoughts would lead to her heart failing, she immediately got on her feet and decided to get out of this room. Thinking about how she was the only one on this floor made her even more frightened.She gulped and grabbed her phone. Taking large strides out of the room, she didn't bother to look back, feeling that there was a monster chasing after her. Anxiety crawled up against her skin,
Curiosity got the best of her once again, prompting her to voice out, "Alpha, even the Beta wasn't able to inflict half of this damage on you. For someone to hurt you to this extent, they must be really formidable, right? It's not often that I hear of someone as strong as you."Her eyes fell on how Kieran's hand clenched into a tight fist.That made her be on guard.He wasn't going to punch her, right?He continued to stare straight as he loosened his hand and casually replied, "I destroyed an entire pack by myself. It is a little disappointing that I didn't manage to get out unscathed."Serenity's hand shook while she raised her head to stare at him shock. She searched for signs of how this was a joke on his face, but those dead serious eyes confirmed the matter for her.Serenity's throat went dry."Why would you do that?" she questioned in disbelief. Although the rumors spread all around on how Kieran was a bloodthirsty, heartless monster, she thought they were merely exaggerated w
"Aren't you quite flexible?" Jake teasingly commented. "What about the photo then?""An emergency measure. Now that you are my colleague, I do wish the best for you and wouldn't cause you any harm. I know you understand that," Serenity calmly responded.The look in Jake's eyes turned inexplicable as he vocalized, "Aren't you scared as a mere human? Do you perhaps have nine lives?""You're funny." Serenity chuckled. "I am a human just as you said. How can I have nine lives? And what should I be scared of? You are not going to harm me, are you?"Serenity raised one of her eyebrows.Jake chuckled."Definitely not. You can trust me, darling.""I will hold you to that then. This pack has been especially wary of me. Therefore, I haven't been able to befriend anyone yet. You wouldn't mind helping me, right?" Serenity voiced out.Jake grinned at her mischievously and said, "Even a friendship needs an equal exchange.""Oh? What do you need?"Serenity opened the door to her office and entered.
The claw scratching her nerve had Serenity's breath stuck in her throat.She closed her eyes for a second, regretting her decision to step out of her comfort and safety zone by coming downstairs.Her heart started to thump rapidly in her chest while her life remained at the mercy of the hostile party. Serenity opened her eyes and turned her head to smile at Janice."It has been a while. But that's no way to greet someone, right?" Serenity raised one of her eyebrows. If one noticed intently enough, the tremble in her voice wouldn't go unnoticed."Snooping around like a mutt? Do the rules need to made clear to you? Or are you perhaps trying to harm the pack?" Serenity felt the sharp edge poke her delicate lifeline."There is no way a mere human like me can compare to a dog. I have weak senses. You, on other hand, as a werewolf must have really strong nose. I admire it," Serenity commented.'Serenity, oh, Serenity, that sharp tongue of yours will definitely be the reason you die one day
