Loraine’s PovAfter cleaning the attic and seeing that it was all spotless, I let out a sigh of relief as I sat on the floor. I’ve been stuck here since last night and the sun has already set now, yet no one has come to find me or open the attic despite the fact that I had been shouting last night until my throat was sore.I was already hungry, thirsty and tired. I could tell that my fever had worsened because I didn’t get a proper rest and, given that the air in this room is a bit thin, I had a hard time breathing.From time to time, my head would throb and if I stood up, my whole world would turn upside down just like what happened to be earlier when I was about to stand up and try to pry open the door.I didn’t even realize that I had been out for an hour and when I woke up, the sun had already set. It’s not that I doubt that something is wrong with me, since ever since I was a child, never did my parents worry about my health because, unlike other kids who easily get sick, I’ve ne
Loraine’s Pov“W-What are you trying to do? Please let go.” I tried to sound as polite as possible because I didn’t want him to get mad, especially when he’s drunk.I have to calm him down as much as possible. It would also be much better if he wouldn’t harass me and would just let me go. I am honestly drained and tired if I want to pass out, but passing out right here and now, especially because my wrist was grabbed by this drunk man, is dangerous.Who knows what would happen to me if I let down my guard.The drunk man was grinning at me as his thumb caressed my wrist, making a circular motion on it that made me turn green as I couldn’t help but shiver all over. I felt like my stomach churned after he did that.“Beautiful lady, I want to show you something interesting.” After he said that, he dragged me to the blind spot of the forest that was slightly dim because the forest was filled with large trees that slightly blocked the light of the sun.This made me nervous. I don’t know wha
Third Person’s PovThere was a figure of a man that was lying on the branch as the sunlight had hit his pale yet defined structure, sharp nose, and jawline. When he opened his eyes, those green eyes of his had reflected the color of nature.His thick brows furrowed as his eyes landed on the pale woman who was running as if he was being chased by some kind of monster. He could see that the woman was doing her best not to pass out in such a kind of situation. The woman was pale, her body was thin as if she could be blown away by the wind, but despite being thin, she had a strong will to survive, and it wasn’t just that, he could see that she had a strong immune system.Which is also the reason why she can still run right now.The man continued to watch and scrutinize the woman and found out that her face had red, fever or more, like, he could see that she was suffering from feverishness.But the man knows that it wasn’t just an ordinary fever. It was one of the signs of awakening.It se
Loraine’s PovI gritted my teeth and ran away as fast as I could after seeing who it was and what it was. I doubt that he has already found out that I am his mate, his fated half.Shit, shit, shit! I made a mistake. I was too careless! Did he see my face? Of course, he did! After all, he was the one who saved me from drowning in the lake and if it wasn’t for him, I would have already died!However, since it was him who saved me, and he had already recognized me as his mate, I could already tell about my future. The plan where I would stay low and wouldn’t do anything that could make them angry at me to the point of throwing rotten eggs, had already started to fade after seeing the Alpha King’s face, Aaron.Damn it! I used every ounce of my body and ran as fastest as I could in this forest. I couldn't go back to the Monticillio Pack right now, for fear that Aaron was waiting for me there to catch me. Wasn’t it an execution for me if I went there at that moment knowing that Aaron was th
Loraine’s PovIs he out of his mind?! If he’s going to kill me, it is also the same as suicide! If he kills me, he will kill himself too.After all, we are fated mates… though I don’t really like it when both of us are bonded by fate, especially that the one I’m fated to be with is the Alpha King, who had a higher status than I, who comes from a lowly bloodline and, on top of that who in the eyes of the people in the Monticillio Pack, the Alpha King already has a woman whom he loved, which is his fiancée.Damn it. Fate really plays too hard on me.I can’t breathe. He really looks like he’s going to kill me.I gritted my teeth and looked at him in the eyes. Despite that I could hardly breathe, I still spoke. “I don’t know what you’re talking about. Let me go!”After I said that, I gathered my strength in my legs and kicked him hard in his hips. When I felt that the hands that wrapped around my neck had loosened, probably due to survival instincts, I didn’t wait for him to completely le
Third-Person PovIn the late night, where the moon shone brightly, there was a woman who was currently resting in the cave, waiting for the moment to get back to the Monticillio early in the morning, trying to slip inside without anyone noticing it.On the other hand, there was also a man who had been waiting for the little white rabbit to fall into his trap. The corners of his lips were raised as his eyes were looking in the direction of the forest while drinking wine leisurely in his room.Loraine had already decided, and she went out of the cave that she was currently resting in and started running back to the Monticillio Pack. Although in her heart, she doesn’t want to go back, but what can she do when Kavier has already made her a slave? Only a hellish fate was waiting for her if she ran away.Besides, she had already tested it last night that she couldn’t run far away from her mate. In other words, she is also bound by this so-called mate, which is why she cannot escape even if
Loraine’s Pov“W-What? H-How did you find me?” I tried to get away from being locked up in his arms, but he was too strong and wouldn’t bulge even a bit.I gritted my teeth and glared at him.“Is this how you treat your mate, hmm? I am also the one who saved you.” He said as he leaned his face closer to my neck and smelled it.I tried to move my face away from him, but he wouldn’t let me do so. Instead, he would also chase after me and playfully tease my neck.I felt his lips brush the skin on my neck and licked it, sending shivers down to my spine.“What are you doing?! Let go of me! This is sexual harassment!” I yelled at him.I know that there is no point in me screaming for him in this alley right now, since it was also a mistake for me to choose a shortcut just to get to the downtown even faster and now that I had chosen the shortcut, it was a narrow path and most of the people here don’t really pass by here.At that time, there were no people who took the shortcut, other than me
Third Person’s PovAfter dealing with the Alpha King, Aaron, Loraine lets out a heavy sigh in irritation and in anger, especially when she remembers their conversation earlier. She was still pissed that he had suggested to her being his mistress until he finished his business and dealing with his fiancée.What kind of jerk is he? Who does he think he is for him to say that?Does he think that, just because he is my mate, she would immediately accept what he wanted her to do? Including being his mistress?She couldn’t help but grit her teeth and huff in anger. Even her inner wolf was angered by the words that he had left earlier. He had better not let her see his face again or else Loraine would kick his ass.“Damn it.” Loraine couldn’t count how many times she had cursed ever since she had met the Alpha King.When she was with her parents… or more like when she was a child up until when Aaron waged a war with her pack before, Loraine didn’t know how to curse, or more like her environm
