ZIVA“Huh?” I murmured, with my gaze landing on Alpha Xander’s lips.His lips were full and inviting. As I looked at him, I felt a flutter in my stomach. I tried to keep my expression neutral, but inside, I was melting under his intense stare.“Some distance will do,” I replied, my voice betraying me as I stammered. Alpha Xander in response released his grip from my hand, and voiced out, “Whatever thing you are planning, I’m watching you... Always.”Then, he moved away from me, and it was only after he left the area that I was able to breathe properly. The door opened slowly afterward, as Alexei walked in, “He seems to not be in a good mood today.”“He isn't,” I replied, diverting my gaze to the equipment Alexei held, “I feel more interested in this shooting of a thing.”“Oh oh! That's great!” He exclaimed, throwing a vest at me. I took the vest swiftly and wore it.“I selected a training coach for you, and I will be your other coach.”“Male or female?” I questioned.“Xander is ver
ZIVARunning his hand through his hair, Alpha Xander asked, “Were you eavesdropping?”I moved away from my position and stood on my feet. Then, I turned to him.“You weren't even talking.”“Go away then,” he spoke, making me more curious. Why didn't he turn on the lamp when he was in the room?“Can I come inside?”He narrowed his eyes, speaking firmly, “Go away, I need some space. Distance will do.” Hey, that was my statement! Why is he copying me?“I said you should go,” he voiced out.Respecting his order, I turned around to walk away. But over my shoulders, something caught my eye... A bottle.I turned back quickly. Surprisingly, I caught a bottle of alcohol on the table in the room... Two bottles, three, four, five... I can't count!Alpha Xander moved his tall figure to the side, obstructing my view and calculation.Was he drinking? Why?“How many times do I need to tell you to leave? Do I need to force you?” he questioned, his voice slurring a bit.Oh yeah! He is drunk! No wonde
TANIAIt’s relieving to know that Ziva is gone. She has always been a headache when we were younger as she dislikes me a lot. The look on her face when she realized that she was an illegitimate child was very much satisfying. Meanwhile, I found my mate, Nikolas.Strangely, Nikolas persisted that I stay at Granelma pack and not come to his pack, because there were some problems he had to solve. I believed him, but I couldn't take it anymore. Other Alpha’s daughters are in their mate’s pack, why should I not be in mine? With an Omega, I went to his pack. Sadly, some men stopped me, as my car reached their pack’s border. I pressed a button, causing the car’s window to roll down. I took a swift glance at the men. They were hefty and muscular.“Hello,” I spoke, smiling widely.“What pack are you from?” A muscular man asked politely.“Granelma Pack,” I replied softly. Inwardly, I chuckled, because I would be their Luna and they would bow to me.The man paused for a moment like he received
TANIANikolas touched my hands, causing me to glance back at him. His green eyes flashed lovingly at me, and I forced a smile on my face. I didn't want him to be worried. “I was so worried about you,” Nikolas muttered, and the sounds of footsteps receding echoed.“I’m fine now,” I replied. He took my head and kissed it, “The pack doctor had a physical examination done, and thankfully, you weren't hurt.”“Hm, but what happened? I mean, someone broke into our room,” I questioned, with concern filled in my tone as I tried to sit up. Hastily, Nikolas rushed towards me and he assisted me. He pushed a pillow to my back, as I rested on it.“That was what I was talking about,” Nikolas spoke softly, and he faced me, “The pack is not safe now. You should return to Granelma Pack.”I nodded, realizing that I should have obeyed him when he told me to not come to his pack.“You are right,”Nikolas sat on the bedside, as he held my hand.“So do you plan to return to Granelma Pack?” He asked. The p
TANIAI observed how Nikolas pulled his Inferior Beta into a warm embrace, with their body pressed against each other.I clenched my fists instantly, as my nails dug into my palm. How dare he!“I can never resist your scent,” he muttered under his breath, and the Inferior Beta giggled. She pushed him away slightly, giving some space between them.“What if Tania finds out? You know how this mating bond is very important, right?” She spoke with a sweet voice. Then, when Nikolas was not looking, she had a smirk on her face.Nikolas smiled, leaning towards his Beta. He whispered, “Forget Tania, I will ensure that she stays in Granelma Pack for a while, and then we can execute our plan.”“What plan?!” I barged out of the closet. As soon as I barged out, Nikolas paused, stunned by my appearance. Meanwhile, that Beta of his smirked.“I thought you wanted me to leave this pack because you cared, but here you are, having an affair with your Beta!”Par!A slap fell across my face that caused me
TANIANikolas’s fingers on my chin pressed against my skin tightly. He gritted his teeth, and spoke, “How dare you speak to an Alpha that way!”I could feel fresh blood oozing out of the spots his fingers pinched. I gulped, and continued without letting my guard down, “How dare you lay your filthy fingers on my skin.”“Will you stop talking back at me?” Nikolas yelled, and I laughed. Even if he could not see my lips, he would definitely see the happy expression on my face.“You must be a fool to think that I will just submit to you right away. This is what you want, isn't it? A tough, fierce, and rude Luna,” I smirked. His grip on my chin loosened and he didn't hesitate to chuckle back.“Did you really believe what I said?” He laughed mockingly. “I wanted you to leave with guilt, and that's why I said those statements. You know, you wouldn't be in this state if you had listened to me.”Yeah, listen to him, while he has an affair right under my nose.“I was thinking about what to do wi
TANIAJust like I wanted, the guard approached me. He glanced at me and I unleashed the silver blade in the eye pencil.When he tried to act concerned about me, I stabbed him with the silver blade right in his chest. Luckily, the blade was a poisonous one, so he slumped quickly.I had to grip his body, in order to put him on the floor silently and not attract the other guard’s attention.With that, I straightened my dress and walked silently toward the restroom door. As soon as I reached there, I took a peek. The guards were around the restroom door, and they seemed to be acting normal. While walking back into the restroom, I noticed the red stain on my dress. It must have been from the guard’s body.I turned on the tap, attempting to clean the blood. Just then, the gushing sound from the tap was interrupted by a clicking sound. I turned back, with my hair flowing across the nape of my neck. A masked tall man stood before me with a silver dagger clasped in his hand. I stole a glanc
TANIAI gulped. Fear surged in me as he gave me a dark glare. Trying to ease the scary atmosphere, I faked a chuckle and straightened his shirt with my cuffed hands.“Hehe, I didn't mean to annoy you...” I glanced up at him with a soft gaze. “But I really need these cuffs to be removed from my hands. It's silvery, and it's burning my skin.”I held up my hands, showing him the cuffs and my wrists, which were red and raw from the burns.His gaze softened, then he released his grip from my waist. Dipping his hands into his pockets, he brought a cuff key, causing me to smile.Finally, my wrists will be free. Afterward, I may send a punch to his face and flee from this place.The masked man walked towards me, then he entered the stall and flung the key into the toilet bowl.“What the hell!” I snarled. With a tap from his fingers, I heard the bowl gurgle like it swallowed the key.Then, he moved out of the stall, while I rushed inside. I glanced down at the toilet bowl, and the key had been
