Chapter 26His head bangs hard as he tries to open his eyes, and he closes them back again. His whole body aches badly, and he's also weak. He feels like all his strength has been drained, and his eyes are dizzy. Seconds slowly tick into minutes before he finally forces his eyes open, and the blurry white ceiling welcomes him. The ceiling is strange and doesn't look like the ceiling of his room, but that's not his problem. His problem is to see clearly, and also where he is and how he ended up here. Two minutes later, his vision finally becomes clear, and he manages to look around the room. The room is pained in white, the pink colored curtains look extremely beautiful and fit the color of the paint. He spots the closet standing adjacent to the big bed he's lying on. He slowly tilts his head to the other side of the room, where he's welcomed with a set of cosmetics. The room belongs to a woman, judging from the way things are arranged. He groans painfully as he tries to sit up on t
Chapter 27The gentle wind blows gently on the leaves and moves them slowly. It's a beautiful and peaceful evening. Alpha Damien is standing inside the beautiful garden, staring into space. The gentle wind blows gently on his face and sways his hair soothingly. He has been in his mansion for a few hours, and it feels good to be here again. This is where he comes to whenever he has a lot going on in his mind. The image of Cassie's face flash through his mind, and his heart misses a beat. He gulps down nothing and releases a brief sigh. He has just been away for hours, and he's already feeling this way. He craves to see her face again, but too bad that he has to be here for some time. As much as he wants to convince himself that he's not missing her, the truth is standing in front of him and staring back at him. "What's this feeling?" Placing his hand on his racing heart, he whispers to himself. Why does he feel this way lately when thinking of her? Ever since the incident that night,
Cassie Robert... Funny how you tend to miss the one that bullies you sometimes. It has been three weeks since alpha Damien has been away from the pack, and I can't help but to thank my luck that I have been living freely. I get to hang out with Zoey sometimes, and I didn't have to be scared that I'll be punished. Lately, I have found myself missing him so badly for no reason, and no matter how much I try to control it, I can't help the feeling. I've been so bored in the castle. What was I even expecting? Madam Leila is not around, and I only get to see Zoey once in a while, since she's not allowed to step foot into the royal castle. I toss on the bed for the umpteenth time, letting out a throaty groan. I just finished cleaning the alpha's chamber a few minutes ago, and I don't even feel tired like before. I don't know why it has been like this ever since he traveled. Recalling that there's a place in the castle that is worth touring, I jump off the bed and storm out of the room. S
Alpha Damien has been watching them train since they started, but they had no idea of his presence. Seeing the determination in Cassie, his face beams with smiles. At least she won't be entirely useless to him. Maybe training her to become a warrior for now before she unlocks her powers, won't be a bad idea. "What are you doing?" He finally announces his presence as he strides over to where the two friends are standing, and they both freeze on the spot as waves of fear sparks through them. They just got caught by the alpha, and he may not spare them. Cassie takes a deep breath, trying to calm her heart that suddenly starts racing fast as soon as she heard his voice earlier, but with him around, there's no way that can ever be possible. He was supposed to be away, why is he back now of all time? "Greetings, my lord," Zoey falls to her knees nervously as she fidgets. Her heart keeps racing fast as she stares at the floor. Maybe this will be the end of her existence. Ever since she wa
Cassie Robert...I am supposed to have cleaned the alpha's chambers as usual, but I have been awake for the past two hours, and he's still sleeping. He usually wakes up about ten minutes after I wake up, but today is unusual. I hope he didn't die in his sleep. "Come on, Cassie, you should stop thinking like that," My subconscious mind says to me, and I roll my eyes at nothing. "Why do you think the alpha is still sleeping?" I ask Zoey as if she slept in his room. "I don't know. Maybe he had a long day yesterday since he has been away," She suggests, and I shrug. I'm happy that I now live with Zoey, but I'm still scared of what Alpha Damien has in store for the two of us. I have no idea why he will ask Zoey to move in with me just like that. "I think I should go check up on him again," I finally stand up to my feet and drag myself out of the room. I was supposed to have been done with my chores already, but because of him I'm stuck here and doing nothing.I place a soft knock on hi
Two weeks later... "Get up, now!" Alpha Damien yells at Cassie, as she slumps to the ground and breathes heavily. With all the strength left in her, she helps herself up to her feet with her sword. Life hasn't been fair to her for the past two weeks. She was shocked when Damien asked Zoey to teach her the basics of swordsmanship, only for him to take over the training one week later. He hasn't gone easy on her, and this has made her strong, although it's kind of hard to keep up with.She has been wondering why he suddenly wanted her to learn this, but who is she to question him?After training for a few more minutes, she finally return to her room with little or no energy left in her. Alpha Damien already drained all her energy, and all thanks to him, she's about to collapse now. She crashes on her bed as soon as she steps into her room. Zoey is not inside the room, maybe she must've gone out to stroll or something. She manages to have her bath before she finally sleeps off... The
Chapter 32He stares at her confusingly for some seconds. Seeing the angry look on her face he can't help getting more confused. Why is she angry? "The medicine, isn't it cold?" He glances at the mug and back to her face. She bites her bottom lip in embarrassment. She has been standing here for some time and the medicine tends to get cold. What the hell was she even thinking? Why is she acting this weird? What's going on? Those are questions that keep running through her mind as she bites her lip. She has been confused why she was suddenly angry to see him with a woman, everyone knows Damien to be a pervert, he sleeps with women in the pack anyhow he likes it, why is she angry now? "Drop it on the table," He says to her before he walks away, while she stands there and watches him leave. Her heart flutters as she stares at him, confused about what the feeling is. It can't be what she's thinking, right? Taking a deep breath, she finally pushes the door open and steps inside, but she
Chapter 33Cassie Robert"Who's there?" I ask as I stretch my neck forth to check around. I bet someone is around here, but I have no idea where the person is. "What are you doing with him?" The voice sounds somewhat familiar, and I squint my eyes, trying to recall where I must've heard the voice from before. I'm sure I've heard that voice before but I have forgotten where I have heard it from. Still trying to recall, he suddenly pops out from behind the tree in front of me, and I flinch. It's the person I saw in the garden some time ago. The one that had tattoos on his arm and chest. Gosh! I have forgotten his name. "Oh, it's you?" "Milo..." He calls, and the cat meow at him. What! Does he know the cat? "Do you by chance...""Yes. That's milo, my cat. Did it trouble you?" He asks with a questioning look on his face, and I quickly shake my head. "Not at all. I saw it wandering in the garden, and I felt it'll be thirsty, so I gave it some water. I thought it got lost, so I was goi
