Hilda"Girlfriend, that was a white lie. You are very good at that, I mean, expertise!" Avira chuckled, and I just sighed. Avira can be very naughty sometimes."You have not told me all that went on with our mate Lucas; you promised to tell me everything that happened before I showed up!" Avira requested.I sighed and frowned. This is not the topic I really wish to talk about, because each time I fix my mind on how Lucas rejected me, the pain feels so fresh.Mates are paramount in wolf culture. A mate is your second half—your special someone picked by our moon goddess. Your mate becomes the most important aspect of you. It is the connection of two souls. Once you are presented with your mate by our moon goddess, you love them instantly. Your mate becomes the number one person in your life. You love them with everything in you and always want to be with them.In my case, that very Solstice night, I was very happy, expecting our mate. I picked up his scent and traced it, only to find my
Hilda 78I crouched down from the bed and stepped towards the door. I peeked through the spyhole, and it was damn Avalor."What are you doing here, Avalor? I thought you were clear when you said you never wanted to see my face again." Anger began to simmer in my heart as the thought of what the pack healer said to me crossed my mind."Open the door, Hilda."Please, Alpha Avalor, say whatever you want to say.""Oh, I see they now address me as Alpha Avalor."'I think it is best you leave me, sir. Please leave me alone. Allow me to have some peace. I don't ever want to see your freaky face either.""You asked me to leave your kingdom. Remember, or have you forgotten so soon?" I sighed aloud."Hilda…!" He took a breath and let it out aloud.His aura suffocated my nostrils, and I tried hard not to fall for it. What does he take me for? A football that he plays with?"Why not just open the door for him? Hear him out, please, girlfriend," Avira began to plead in my head."shut up! shut up!
Hilda 5 days laterI picked up the cup of tea from the cabinet and sipped it slowly, as it was very hot. I love the setting of the kitchen, from the arrangement down to the utensils. I must say that Avalor's mom must have good taste. The kitchen is so beautiful. I wish I had met her. I remember Avalor telling me how nice she was. If she were alive, maybe Avalor wouldn’t treat me the way he does; I could probably have one person who liked me. Who knows."How about Alex? Has he not been good to you?" Hilda snapped at my thoughts. I am not surprised Avira could hear my thoughts, as in the werewolf culture, your wolf hears your innermost thoughts."You are right, Avira; that young man has been nice to me. He is such a humble fellow. Even as the stepbrother of Avalor, he doesn’t behave like a royal blood. He is so simple and nice. Although something about him bothers me,"What exactly, Hilda?" I scurried to the window to make sure no one was around."Why not go back upstairs? Let’s go ove
HildaWe have been here for close to an hour, and Miss Nancy has yet to come out to see her guest. The palace is filled with lots of expensive vehicles. The king Alpha of the blood moon pack is equally around. He is very wealthy, but not as much as Avalor. Alpha Russell didn’t just know how to manage his company. I feel the idea of giving Lucas his own company to manage was a bad idea. The company was doing better before his son Lucas became CEO."What is your business? You are no longer a worker in the Blood Moon Pack. You like to worry a lot.""Shut up, Avira; must you respond to all my thoughts?" I hit my head.Oh goddess, Avira is so annoying.Oh, really, I am annoying now, right? Don’t worry, I don’t blame you; it's just because you have your date who is keeping you company, and you no longer need me." Avira’s voice exuded jealousy."Where could he have gone? Alex told me he was going to check on Avalor, and now he is taking so much time." Avira ignored me. I guess she was still
Hilda"Hilda! Hilda!" Alex kept shouting my name, but I just ignored him."Are you okay? What is happening? You have been in there for more than 30 minutes. I will break the door and come in at the court of 3. 1..2."I grabbed the door and came out before he counted 3."Why are you sobering? Did Avalor say something bad to you? Talk to me, and I could help you out." I shrugged my shoulders and cleaned up my tears."I would consider your offer, Alex. I would love to move over to the boy quarters. This place is not very safe for me anymore.""Sure, I will have my men get that place ready for you. You don’t need all that you are going through now, and I thank you for considering my opinion. When you are there, you won't have to deal with my brother and his woman again." I narrowed my eyebrow at him.If he knew how I detest hearing that phrase, ‘his woman’, He would not mention that to me.While we walked through the hallway back to my room, I observed that the party had already ended. I
Hilda Three weeks later,Dear Hilda Storm,It is your anonymous friend. This would be like the fifth email I have written to you, and you have only replied to two of them.I am writing to remind you again to leave the palace immediately and save the lives of your dear pups. There is a conspiracy going on in the palace against your life. Go away now! Run far away, where no one can find you.Thanks.Anonymous friendWhat is the meaning of all this? I am certainly not responding to this useless email. The worst part is that the more I block the sender, the more he sends from other of his devices. Let the person allow me to discover what form of conspiracy is going on in the palace by myself."I don’t think you should ignore all these constant warnings, girlfriend!" Avira snapped."No, Avira, this is not right at all. Do you remember the last email that popped in before this one? The sender was asking me to leave the palace and meet him outside the place. According to him, he has made ar
Hilda"Do you think I should tell Alex about the anonymous message?" I questioned Avira.I would rather you tell Avalor. Unlike you, I think I trust Avalor and still have my reservations about Alex. Avalor is the right person to tell, girlfriend." I nodded my head at her words. It may take forever for me to do that. I pouted.I sat down, breathing heavily, after I had walked three times. I walked from one end of the garden to the other. And when I got tired, I returned to this seat to sit down for a while before I could continue.Oh, moon goddess!" I jumped up and shrieked the moment I felt a cold touch on my neck."What are you doing here, King Avalor?" I questioned him with my heart thudding in my chest."Hilda, just give me a few minutes to talk with you." He pleaded."You are just going to cause me more problems with your woman. I thought I wouldn’t have to deal with you anymore. You still have to come over to the boy quarters to look for me. I understand every part of the palace b
lucas POV Have you wondered why he still allowed you to stay at the palace?Have you wondered why he keeps telling you that he is in love with you?Thanks, your anonymous friend!I hit the send button.Damn you, bitch! I thought it was only in bed that you used your brains; I never knew you were smart as well. Let's see where your smartness can take you. So long as I live, Avalor will never have you. You are my mate, and even though I rejected you from the beginning, I own you, and you will be my sex slave or die. I will kill you.I grabbed my wine and poured some into my wine glass.Cheers to you, Hilda! You will soon be with me, bitch. Your days at the palace will soon come to an end. I would make sure you fall into the trap that befalls you. I emptied all the drinks in my mouth at once."Who were you talking to? and what are you celebrating for?" My father interrupted."So, father, the prince of the blood moon pack is not allowed to be happy? Do I also have to obtain permission fr
