RAULAndrea was standing right in front of me, and with the look in her eyes, I could tell that she was hurt. Cleo walked away without sensing her presence, and I tried to move over to her, but she turned away from me."Andrea, please don’t do this. I can’t live without you, and you mean a whole lot to me. I know it seems like everything is going off right now, but if you would let me explain, then we could get back on the right track. Whatever you saw with Cleo is not what you think!" I cried.Despite how loud my voice was, she didn’t stop in the least. I felt like every part of me was throbbing in pain. How could I change everything now? What could I do so that there wouldn’t be more misunderstandings between us?Everything was falling apart, and I couldn’t glue it together. I staggered back to the wall as I stared at the empty hall. "I’m so sorry because I’m the one who causes you the most pain. I wish it wouldn’t be like that, and we’d get out of all these problems that are threat
MEADEDusk was here already, and that meant one thing; it was time for me to do what I had planned. I grabbed the small silver body on my shelf, turning it slowly around my fingers. It felt as though it was harmless, but I knew it wasn't. Cleo was going to use this and get my work done. “I'm doing the right thing, right?” I asked the empty room.There was no response to that question. Instead, my hands shook lightly around the bottle. I frowned lightly as I glared at it before placing it into the pockets of my gown.No matter what happened today, I was going to make sure that Cleo slid her way into being the Luna. That was the only option that I had at this point.I slowly walked out of my room, only to see that the guards were right out of my room. It took me aback a bit, and I found myself going still as I looked at them.“Eh… why are you all standing here?” I asked at once.They exchanged looks. “Lady Meade, we are always here to guard you. It's part of the reasons we live.”I for
CLEO The bottle burnt a while in my panties with every move that I made to Raul's room. I could only hope that I was doing the right thing. If things went the other way, then, it would be just me who would be no trouble and no-one else. 'Stop thinking like that, Cleo. You came here because you wanted to make Raul your mate. So, this is the right opportunity for everything to work out perfectly.' My wolf explained softly. I smiled a bit. She was right. I was the one who ought to walk alongside Raul, and not Andrea. Lady Meade had called her a maid, and it was my duty to reduce her to the status that she deserved. Sliding my hair behind my ears, I calmly turned the corner that led me to Raul's room. Three guards were standing right in front of his room. The button of their jacket was open right at the front, and it made me realize that it would be easy to get what I wanted now. Pulling my night robe closer to my body, I walked determinedly to them. “Open the door,” I said at on
ANDREA"Drive faster, please," I whispered to the driver.Oh, goddess! I really hoped I was doing the right thing by coming out alone. I turned back a bit and noted that a black, unmarked car was following me. It should probably be one of the guards who decided to protect me discreetly. There was nothing that escaped their eyes sometimes, and I was well aware that things could get rough in the near future. So, it was okay if they actually came along.With a sigh, I shifted my gaze to the front, watching as the buildings moved past us with speed. There was literally no one on the road considering how early it was, and I found it so refreshing. Since I realised that the Alphas were my mates, I had not had a moment’s rest. But, now, this would make me forget everything that was happening in my life. It was just perfect."Luna, we would be there in about 10 minutes. Please hold the seatbelt properly," the driver advised as he drove.I sighed as I did as I was told, while using the other h
ANDREAI closed my eyes for a second, as the images before me almost threatened to suffocate me. There was no way this was real. Maybe my mind was playing tricks on me. I pulled my gown into my fists as I slowly opened my eyes. Raul was still in the same position with Cleo, and I just couldn’t take it anymore. "Why?" I whispered as I turned around to leave."What’s going on?" Raul’s voice stopped me right there.Blinking back the painful tears, I turned around to see that he was slowly sitting up. I couldn’t speak as he shifted his gaze to the side, only to see that Cleo was sleeping peacefully. Raul hit her at once as he screamed. Then his eyes were right on me."Andrea, I can..."Cleo groaned as she cuddled closer to him with her hands right on his chest, tweaking the hairs on his chest even more. My eyes grew wide as pain rested right on my heart. He covered her hands with his as he stared at her."What are you doing, Cleo? You’re not supposed to be in here, and...""Stop joking a
RAULOh, my fucking goddess!This sh*t couldn’t be real right now. I stared down at Cleo, who was still caressing my chest in shock. How could she be here, and what the hell was going on? It is not time for this right now. I looked towards the door and noticed that Andrea was not there. I was such a...Without thinking, I shot out of bed, nude. I can’t believe that I have gone all the way with Cleo. The worst part was that I couldn’t remember what happened last night. Everything was a haze, and I was just so fed up with it all. The fact that I had hurt the woman that I had come to care for on a deeper level made me feel so awful.I groaned as I went over to my wardrobe, throwing on a black pant and a white shirt. When I turned, Cleo was right in front of me, with the sheets covering her body. "Get out of my way right now!" I thundered."No," she spat out.I gave her a look as I tried to leave, but she stopped me at once with her hands resting on my chest. "What’s the meaning of this n
ANDREA "Get up, you lazy twat!" A scream followed by a whip against my back, jerks me up from my sleep. Conscious of my surroundings, I adjust my clothes; bowing my head to the ground ashamed to face Lady Meade, Alpha Duncan’s daughter. Given her rank as the alpha’s daughter, Lady Meade treated we omega as slaves-- especially me, Andrea Vuk. Lady Meade had made me work three days straight without food nor water so while doing the dishes earlier, I’d decided to take a 'little' nap before she’d ruthlessly woken me up with a whip against my back. I guess she considered this treatment alright by the rules of the pack, but I didn’t. It only made me eager for tonight to come quickly because tonight is my 18th birthday and the day I finally get a mate. By the goddess, I hope my life will change like my best friend’s, Avery who found her mate last year and was able to get out of this unruly treatment. "Answer me!" Lady Meade shouts, hitting her whip against the ground; snapping me
LUCIAN"I refuse!" I strongly disagreed with my father. Father, Alpha Ian had summoned me and my brothers to his chambers to urge us to attend the full moon festival tonight. Father always made me, Raul and Nikolai attend the festival every year because we were yet to find a mate and whispers about our curse were already making a buzz amongst the pack members. That’s right, there’s a heavy curse laid upon my brothers and me; a curse that restricts us from shifting into our wolf forms under the sunlight lest we get roasted. It was absurd as we weren’t vampires but still, it was real. Owing to that fact, we were called the 'Night Howlers', because our howls could only be heard at night when we were allowed to shift. The reason behind the curse remained vague but from the information we’d managed to gather, it was because one of our ancestors had rejected their mate on a full moon. After all, he was in love with another and this had angered Selena, the moon goddess. Therefore, to r
