RAVEN’S POV:I sat on the comfy bed in my room with a duvet on my lap as I scrolled through the search options on the screen of my phone. I was going through job opportunities I could take up near the pack. Now that I was at least out of being an omega slave, I couldn't just sit still and do nothing with my life.Although I couldn't finish college, I still got my first degree. That should be enough to get a manageable job offer since degrees weren't really considered necessary in the werewolf community. I had to get a job at a place close to the pack and within the community. I was targeting an assistant or secretary job since that was close to my scope.I picked up the pen beside me as I marked out a few companies that had caught my attention. They belonged to werewolves, and although some were a bit distant from the pack, it was still good enough.I was still doing this when there was a sudden commanding knock on the door of the room. I couldn't help but jump as the sound was rather
His gaze was still settled on me when he asked this, and I couldn't help but stiffen when he reached out to pull back a strand of my hair that blew into my face, his warm fingers scraping my face along the way."Hmm?" He demanded again when I didn't respond."No, it's not that. I..." I began to speak, but he interrupted, "That's a shame then. I came because I thought you did."I didn't even know what to say to him, and I could only stare. But then, he didn’t seem to really care about my loss of words as his face came closer. His eyes were really dark and sensual, such that they made me swallow subconsciously.His gaze moved to my lips, and even before his lips touched mine, I knew what he wanted to do. But for some reason, I didn't move away or avoid the incoming kiss in any way. Instead, I found myself closing my eyes in response, my skin tingling with a hint of anticipation.But instead of kissing me, he placed his face side by side with mine, his lips brushing my earlobes. I breathe
TRISTAN'S POV:Hearing her call my name made me come to my senses, as though I had dozed off and just come back to life. I was holding her arms up against the wall, her top roughly handled, and her bosom exposed.Shit! Shit! What have I done?I stared into her green eyes laced with tears, my mind reeling. She was crying; I had never seen her cry, and it was not a pleasant sight. She looked devastated and in shock. Her eyes clamped shut, and more tears ran down her face, already smothered with tears and snot."Let me go..." She croaked out lowly, her voice sounding tired and exhausted.Subconsciously, my grip slackened as I let her go, and she slipped down the wall. She quickly pulled up the remnants of her top as she pulled up her knees to her chest. I could tell she was pretty affected, considering the sharp look in her gaze as she stared at me, waiting for me to make a move.I moved closer to her, but she quickly backed off, looking defensive. I couldn't help sighing at this, knowin
RAVEN’S POVI woke up the next morning only to find myself lying on the floor of the room, my knees clutched to my chest. I had no idea how I slept off, but my whole body ached, and I felt rather awful after sleeping on the cold floor all night. As I sat there on the floor, everything that happened the night before came rushing down in torrents. The jotter pad on my bed was still left open, the pages opening from time to time.I couldn't help but sigh.As I stood up from the bare floor, there was a sudden knock on the door. It was Lena."Come in," I told her.She walked in, closing the door behind her. I noticed she looked rather vibrant tonight, unlike how she was yesterday when she first came to me."Good morning, miss." She bowed. "I'm here to clean your room."I reached out to pick up the book and my phone before looking up at her. "My room? You don't need to; I can do that myself."She shook her head, however, looking frazzled. "No, you can't do that, Miss."I sighed, knowing she
RAVEN’S POV:"We're here," the driver informed me as the cab pulled up in front of the huge skyscraper. I paid him and got down, in front of the gates. When I looked up, I saw the name 'Alpha' boldly written on a plaque on top of the building. I was at the right place.Although yesterday I was pissed off by what Tristan did, I applied and did a mobile evaluation test for the assistant secretary job he said there was a vacancy for. Thankfully, I was informed a few hours later that I had been shortlisted, and I should come this morning for my final interview.I didn't really expect to be shortlisted at all as I believed a lot of people must have already applied before, as yesterday was even the deadline. No one would sit still when it came to such a big company. But now that I passed the initial test, I hoped I would be selected in the final interview, too.I adjusted the shirt I was putting on, feeling rather confident today. Thankfully, Bethany chose every type of outfit. Otherwise, I
RAVEN'S POV:After the interview, I took a cab and returned home. When I entered the main living room, I noticed it was all quiet, and only two girls were sitting there, deeply engrossed in their chat. Upon seeing me come in, they immediately stopped talking and gave me a once-over. Their expressions seemed to say that they were wondering if I heard everything they were saying.I didn't anyway, so I just nodded at them in greeting before walking off. But as I walked away, I heard them say, "She must have heard what we said. I don't know what makes her so arrogant. Do you know that she doesn't talk to anybody?"Then the other responded, "Do you know who she is? I heard the Alpha brought her here."I didn't expect them to talk about me, especially within my earshot, but I didn't react to it and instead walked up the stairs, heading to my room. When I reached my door, however, I found three girls standing around. Their faces looked rather familiar, but I didn't remember where I met them.
LUCAS'S POV:The door of my office opened, and Rolf entered with the spy who had just returned from the Shadow Moon Pack behind him. I sat up on the sofa, which was still littered with papers since I moved there for my work instead of the desk."Alpha." The two of them greeted with a salute while Rolf added, "I brought in the spy, sir. He just came back with news from the Shadow Moon Pack, and he said he has urgent news to relate to you."I was instantly at alert at this. If there was urgent news from that place, then it must be something very big. Although I was still sceptical. Tristan was always a wary man. Even if he didn't notice there was a spy amongst his people, surely he wouldn't be so careless for important news to spill out. So, I doubted the news he brought was any useful. But, I still needed to know anyway."Okay, sit," I told the man, who immediately bowed while Rolf left the room. "I'm all ears."He pressed his palms together and quickly began to tell me. "I overheard w
RAVEN’S POV:I frantically rushed out of the pack house, tying my hair into a lazy bun as I checked the time on my phone. It was half past seven, and I was meant to clock in at eight; at this rate, I'd be late. My eyes quickly scanned the area for a cab, hoping to catch one.It was yesterday when I received my employment letter to resume work today, and due to my excitement about the good news, Bethany managed to convince me to drink with her. I completely slept off last night and forgot to set an alarm, so I was getting late for work. So now, early morning on a Tuesday, I was struggling to get to work, half groggy, and a head aching with a hangover.However, to my dismay, there were no cabs in sight. Usually, cabs were always scarce in this area because most of the people had a car. And the only bus station available was a few streets from here. As I stood there, I contemplated going back in to persuade Bethany to drive me there, but I couldn't even be sure she had woken up yet.But
