" You know I said I wanted to tell you something?" Estelle mumbled into River's ear as they went downstairs.The man only hummed in reply. " You've gained weight, Elle." He said instead and she poked him on the back." Deal with it." She clicked her tongue with a small smile. " Well, Neil found his mate." Estelle finally said and she felt River suck in his breath for a moment." What are you talking about, Elle?" He scoffed instead, sounding like he didn't believe what she had just said." I'm serious." Estelle refuted. " I'm sure he hasn't told you yet because he's not ready to but I'm serious. I even know who she is, I don't really tell lies." She pouted but River was silent.He finally asked again after a while. " Who's she?" He asked but Estelle had switched back to her annoying kind of self. " I'm not gonna tell you. You didn't believe me in the first place so how sure am I that you'd believe me if I tell you this now?" She snapped, clipping her legs tighter around his wais
Faraway from the pack house and on the hills, series of lightnings flashed across the sky and a man suddenly appeared. His eyes were shut tight with his hands clasped behind him that made it seem like he was meditating as his long black hair danced reluctantly with the rhythm of the breeze.His face screamed perfection even though his creased forehead revealed that he wasn't a youngster. Suddenly, his eyes opened, revealing a pair of beautiful golden orbs and in the next second, he had completely vanished into thin air.PACK HOUSE " Alice should spin this time." Kaileyn said and the princess turned to her with a smile as she blew a kiss at Kaileyn who turned to Estelle at that moment with a victorious smirk." Lair and Kaileyn." Alice announced with a gale of laughter. Everyone knew why she was laughing as they stared at Kaileyn and Lair who were now eyeing and glaring at themselves. Kaileyn had bit her lips in fury when she heard her name being called with Lair's. She had wan
In a flash, a whole other week had passed by again and things seemed to be doing incredibly well. Estelle had started her trainings and her classes too and she had been doing great even if the Alpha always hears a earful every single time she came back from her classes." I'm back!" Estelle announced loudly like she had grown to since she started her classes. River was now mostly always in the study so anytime she was back from her classes, she'd just go to him. She found it as the most pleasurable time of each days that passes by since she had started those tiring classes.She had a "karen" for an instructor for her lectures and an extremely cold one for her training classes but so far, Estelle was getting to like the new life she was being exposed to more and more. Now, she could do a lot of things that she didn't think she was going to be ever able to do.She now knew a lot of 'do's and don'ts' she didn't knew earlier on, she could now play the cellar, shoot arrows, position h
" Is she alright?" Estelle asked gently, her soft palms caressing Naina's unconscious face gently as Sameer finished attending to her." She's fine, Luna and do not worry about her, she'll be strong and agile as ever when she regains consciousness. We need just to give her a few hours." The doctor replied, bowing as he exited the room.Estelle sighed, staring at her friend's face. Naina didn't look sick at all when she last saw her so what suddenly went wrong? She was burning up so bad earlier before she was treated. Was she homesick? No, Naina wasn't the kind of person to be homesick at all so.... Neil? Could it be something relating to Neil?" Make sure to inform me when she's up." She told the maid that was watching over Naina before she exited the room and at that moment, her face slightly darkened when she saw Neil and a strange looking woman.Her guess seemed to be right. Estelle thought, frowning.★★★ " Engagement diary? What's it about, Tara? Lady Lana said something abo
Estelle hissed at the goosebumps on her skin, her eyes glaring down at the beautiful town below her from the rooftop. A town she could not dare to enter at the moment because of the false and uncalled rumour she didn't even know where it came from." It's dinner time, Luna. You neither took anything during brunch and lunch so please, try to eat something. We beg of you." Antara sighed meekly as she stretched out a large blanket. " You've been here since a while and it's really cold out here, please–" " I told you all to leave and not to disturb me. Do not make me repeat myself again." She said calmly and her maids sighed." Lu–"" I said, leave. I'm really not in the mood." She cut them off and they all sighed as they bowed and turned to leave but Estelle called one back, telling the others to go." So, you all knew about this and never bothered to tell me? You knew about my name being tarnished out there and you all kept quiet, allowing me make a fool of myself, right?"" No, Lu
Kaileyn paced about in her room, cursing and biting her lips at the same time." Is he suspecting me? Fuck, why wasn't I asleep just yet yesterday? Can you imagine? River wants me to find the person behind that rumor? Shit." She cursed for the nth time." You know who did it–" Alisha was saying." Me?" " No. That omega. You didn't do it, you asked her to do it and besides, we already planned out the things to do to her already. What's up with the nonsense?"" I think I got carried away for a moment. I completely forgot about it but I do not think I can remember her face." Kaileyn said. They both were referring to the plan they'd made for the maid who was sent by them to spread that false rumour about Estelle." Call Colin. He brought her so he should know her." Alisha hissed irritatedly. " You're getting too full for my liking, Kaileyn." She hissed afterwards." I'm not!" Kaileyn hissed back." I have to go somewhere so I definitely won't be beside you but do not fuck up. Remember
He swiftly swiveled around but there was nothing like he'd expected there. He had thought he heard the bushes shuffling." You, go to the other side. I'll stay here." An exasperated Lair said with a angry tone and the Scout he talked to immediately moved to where he was asked to.He was still on his punishment given to him by the Alpha but it'll be another day in a few hours and he'd be flying back to the pack house to have a rest. That bastard, Neil, couldn't even care to come check if he was still alive or dead with such dreadful punishment given to him." Gamma Lair," one of the Scouts called, he was precisely the head of the other Scouts with the way he held his shoulders like they'd fall off his body if he ever brought them down. Lair only gave a tired him for him to go on before the leader of the Scouts said. " A fire broke out on the others side of the gates, Gamma. It was suspected not go be an accident as earlier, one of the Scouts had seen disappearing figures behind–"
SOMEWHERE FARAWAY In the dim environment that was quite lit up by only the few amounts of equally dim torches that was around the corners of the room. Two figures, recognizably a male and a female by their hair, knelt silently in front of an empty throne with heads bowed but the silence of the environment was continually disturbed by the muffled grunts that came from the cage that was placed far behind in the large dark room but the two figures neither moved nor complained by the noise.A few minutes passed and the tall lean figure of a woman walked majestically into the large room, her snowy white that looked exactly like her pale, snowy skin, proudly swinging down to her waist, her body strapped in a thin material that emphasized her thin but curvy figure. Her face laid in the darkness but her small, shiny red lips shined bright amongst her facial features.She paused on her tracks as her head swiveled to face the cage and immediately, the muffled grunts stopped. She stared at
