Orla's POVWhen Angus returned, the song had been changed, and the hall was now filled with loud hip-hop music. The students, including myself, became perplexed, but no one attempted to change the song or oppose Lycan King. He walked into the middle of the hall, and the other students cheered for him. He then began dancing like a lunatic, not dancing but jumping around and throwing his hands in all directions.He seems to enjoy this. I couldn't take my eyes off him, the way he was enjoying himself. It seems like he was happy from the heart, which he rarely gets. He then came to a halt and invited me to join him. My head shook. Of course, I am not going to join him in his lunacy. But he is not the type of man who listens to others. He always does what he wants and forces others to follow his will. "Come on, Orla, believe me, you will have too much fun!" Angus extended his hand to shake mine, but I declined.When he was certain that I would not move from my position, he sat on his k
Orla's POVIt's been two days since Angus left me alone at the Prom party, for which I was so excited and now he hasn't returned home since then. Father is also unaware of his whereabouts, and I am unable to question him openly because he doesn't seem to care much. He is already busy with the matter of the pack. I tried to call him but couldn't muster the courage because Dante's words were still ringing in my head.In my previous life, I was horribly murdered and abandoned by the one I couldn't even think of, the one I thought loved me with all his heart. Is it going to be the same in this life?Is he cheating on me? I didn't believe Angus when he told me about Dante in his previous life because I was madly in love with him. Is it going to be the other way around in this life?Could I believe Dante this time? What if I don't believe him just the way I didn't believe Angus in the previous life and what he is saying turned out to be true? It's also possible that, just as I am here
Angus' POVOne month has passed since the prom and Orla hasn't spoken to me since. Everything was fine and going so well before that. I know she is upset because I left her in the middle of the party, but I was also helpless. Someone else needed my assistance more than she did. And she needs to understand that as a Lycan king, I have a lot of responsibilities.When the exam was due in a week, I returned to her house, though it was still difficult for me to do so. Like every other time I helped her in exam preparation, particularly for mathematics, I assumed she would require my assistance this time as well, but she didn't even speak to me. I tried to approach her to ask if she needs me for anything, or clarify things with her but she didn't give me the chance. I didn't get to see her at the dining table because she was eating in her room, which she used to keep securely locked from the inside. I got a few passes from her when she came out, but she was very cold to me and treated me
Orla's POV"I saw you with that girl, hugging, kissing, and going all lovey dovey..."As I told him about that girl, I could see the color drain from his face. He was shocked to know that I have come to know about his secret and that now he can't manipulate me with his honey-dipped words. I was so hurt after witnessing that scene that I decided to ignore him and forget about him. I was a fool to believe him. He was not deserving of anything. He may have been my mate in a previous life, but the Moon Goddess did not grant me a mate in this life, which could be why she knew he couldn't be the one for me. He couldn't give me the love and loyalty that I wanted. It was only me who got attracted to him and lost sight of my life's purpose.Why can't I see that every time he made me laugh or made my heart skip a beat, it wasn't just for me? He was doing it for many other girls as well. When he touched me in that way, I couldn't believe it wasn't his first time!Why can't I understand that h
Orla's POVToday is the day for the results to be distributed. I am glad I passed the exam. I was a little worried because I didn't take help of Angus this time. I prepared for the exam on my own and was fortunate to pass it. I, too, am eighteen years old now. My father, as usual, threw a big party. But I wasn't overjoyed. First, because I hadn't yet accomplished my life's purpose, and second, because of Angus. He was at home this time. He tried to surprise me, but I ruined it for him because I found out about it beforehand and I didn't want anything from him. He was hurt because he did all those preparations for me and I just ruined everything for him but I couldn't help. I still couldn't shrug away from the scene of him confessing his love for that girl. And he is still not ready to open his mouth to tell me the truth. My father has realized that there is something wrong between us, so he no longer forces me to be with him all the time.I will soon have my own car and won't have t
Orla's POV"Can you tell me where you are going?" Angus asked as I walked out of the house. He was standing in the middle of my way not letting me step ahead. "Why? Do you tell me every time you leave the house?" I folded my arms across my chest as I asked him back. "This is not the time to argue," he exclaimed, "it is late at night and it is not safe for you to go out!""This is not the first time I have gone out at midnight on my own. I know I have many flaws and weaknesses, which is why you are saying all of this; you believe you are strong enough to protect me from the world, but this is not the case. I am capable of defending myself. And don't forget that you were also indirectly responsible for my death when you claimed me without my permission!" I have always thought it was my fault and my mistake that I lost my life, but I am not sure where these words came from, and as I said them, a flash of sadness and pain flashed through his eyes. Even though I didn't mean to hurt him,
Orla's POVAs I woke up, I could sense the excitement in the air. And why shouldn't it be? After all, today is the day that many of us have been looking forward to all year.Those who have not yet found their mate will either claim someone or accept their love as their mate. Even though I am certain that what I am about to do is correct, I couldn't just relax and keep my nerve under check. I skipped breakfast today because I needed to take care of something important first. I went by myself, without informing my parents, and returned before lunchtime so that no one could doubt on me. I just got ready for the day after eating lunch. Angus was not present for lunch today. He had been trying to get my attention for days, but today he was nowhere to be found.Perhaps he was hurt by how I treated him the night before. I went a little too far and harsh on him. The tone I used to talk to him was not right. After all, he is a Lycan King and he deserves respect. I had no idea when the time
Orla's POV After praying to the moon goddess and looking down, I discovered that Dante had already made his way to the center of the hall, oblivious to the fact that I am going to select him as my mate. He was now the center of attention for all the attendees of this mating season. They were now looking at him in confusion. He was all excited and happy, and he was waiting for me to announce his name as my chosen mate with all his heart.I took a deep breath and opened my mouth to say the name. Though so many eyes were on me, I am not sure where I got such confidence that I wasn't even hesitant for a second before taking the name with which I want to spend the rest of my life. "The name of my chosen mate is Lycan King Angus Lincoln" As soon as I said the name, everyone was shocked, and Dante, who had taken one more step to come to me, came to a halt at his place, both of his feet were wide apart. My pack members all stood up in surprise, and I could see Stenly on the verge of coll
