Riona POV
"The adults are talking here! The adults are talking here! What does he mean by that? I'm not an adult?" I was fuming in anger speaking with Friya in my room.
I sat on the edge of the bed while stomping my feet and glaring at the door thinking my annoying master could see me or hear me. I was the chosen maiden, the main dish in their juicy talks hence I was thrown out of the door. Not exactly, but for me, it was like that!
"Could you calm down? You're troubling yourself to such petty matters. They're all men, you don't need to meddle with their kingdom talks!" Friya scolded me rather.
"Are you still on my side, Friya?
This four-legged sister of mine was obviously vouching for them instead of taking my side. What happened to her?
"I'm always on your side that's why I'm telling you don't meddle with the men's talk. They're crazy. You know what I mean. But I'm gonna tell you, that Alpha King is gorgeous. I love his l
Matthew POVLunch!I was starving and these two unwanted refugees in my mansion were ruining my appetite. This wolfy prince was putting a meal on my slave's plate. When did the son of that witch become a gentleman? And this feeling teenager damaged wolf was also delightful somebody's treating her like a baby!"Alpha King, it's alright. I can get the food by myse~""You can call me Victor, Riona. You're going to be my Luna someday. By the way, have someone ever told you that you have beautiful eyes!""I did! I told her that...once!" my last word came out a whisper.I would like to slap my lips for butting in, I never told them to speak. Even my body parts were not listening to me now."No, you haven't!" she uttered, baffled while staring at me."I already told you that maybe you can't remember again. Really, how can you be the chosen bride when you're a wrecked wolf?" I scowled.But the truth was I was never outspoken. I
Victor POVBeing with my half-brother wasn't that bad at all. Although he was still aloof and cold towards me, the rest of his characters today wasn't that hard to tolerate. Like how he slammed the door of his car in front of him while I was wondering how to open it. It was a good thing this Hamil had a common sense to open the door before I would lift this car along with him. He would never like that to happen. Maybe next time I would do a little hoax to teach him a lesson. I smirked at that brilliant idea."What are you smirking at?" my mind-wandering was cut off by his as cold as a dead person coming out from the grave voice. I shifted my stare at him and plastered a forced smile."Just wondering how my bride ended in your mansion!" I lied but I also wanted to know that.When he sneered at me, I was already aware that his reply would just make my blood boil. Hamil who was driving glanced at the rearview mirror waiting for my half-brother's answer
Riona POV"Riona, wake up. We're here!"I was awakened by Baron's tap and the sound of the stream at night. Plus the cold blow of the wind when he opened the car door. I squinted my eyes first before getting off while hugging myself. I was just wearing a summer shirt and skinny jeans, Baron didn't tell me it's quite cold here."C'mon now! Are you cold?" he asked upon walking to my side.As he opened the door, I got out of the car, my hair waved freely from the breeze while I rubbed my arms. Baron immediately put his jacket on my shoulders."Put this on. I didn't know you can't take cold!" he uttered while locking the car doors. I just nodded as my reply."Is this the stream?" I questioned as my curious sight scanned the surroundings. It was almost twilight."Yeah! This is the stream. Matt told me you can't read us if we talk through mind-links. Does that also happen before? Or only here in the human world?" he questioned w
Riona POV"Are we late? What time does he usually do that?" I was gasping while running really fast with Baron. I spoke to him in his thoughts."Usually after twilight Argo comes out. He might be somewhere now. Hopefully in the forest. D*mn, Hamil isn't in the mansion. Victor is with him. They are looking for his female friend!" Baron answered while he was panting.We were both dead worried Master Matthew might have begun alarming the city or worse cast blood scent in the air. We jumped high over the rocks in the woods, ran as fast as an arrow on the side roads avoiding creating clamor from the people. The lamp posts on the side streets were dim, car headlights were everywhere, the residents locked their doors and windows when they heard growls from us. We were causing attention now, we had to hurry before it would get to worst!"We are here!" Baron halted in front of the wide and high iron gate."Aren't we going in?" I asked whil
Matthew POV "Riona!" I screamed her name with mixed emotions I couldn't define. Lust?! Maybe! Love?! No way! After releasing my desire, I felt something stirring inside. It was so foreign. So enigmatic. So... "Argh!" so painful that I yelped in pain as I rolled over beside her arching my body like something inside would want to come out but couldn't. It wasn't Argo. I couldn't scent him now. "Matthew!" I heard her call my name but my eyes couldn't see anything except darkness. I could feel my hands were shifting to claws, my head was turning to half-wolf, d*mn it the pain behind my back was ripping me off. I gripped the mattress tearing it with my claws. I gritted my teeth but my mouth was forced to open when my fangs came out. "Matthew, are you shifting now?" Riona questioned, her voice was trembling but h*ck I couldn't see her. What's the matter with me? "Get out, Riona! I don't wanna hurt you. Get out!" I growled in a human voice as I fell viol
Riona POVThe Alpha King's gaze narrowed upon hearing Baron's response. Like something attached to his brow. A big invisible question mark only I could see it coz his gaze was just glued to me. He was asking for my answer in those hazel brown orbs."Master Matthew and..."I was clueless about who or what cut me off but I thought I had heard something. My eyes abruptly glanced at the bed but didn't see any unusual movement from him. He was still unconscious, eyes were shut, wolf's mouth was slightly opened, there were sparks at the tips of his fangs. My sight trailed down his arms, I saw short fine hairs that seemed to be growing thicker and longer. His claws were resting on the side of his legs. His breathing was steady when I glanced at his hairy chest.I clasped his claws while I touched his face forgetting audiences in the room were watching us now. His skin was as cold as an ice. I gripped his claws brought them to my lips sending some of
Riona POV It's just another day! However, it was not the same as before. I got used to my routine though, waking up early to prepare for my master's breakfast. But this time, it's totally different. I was coldly stirring the soup. I cooked the omelette with no vigor. I set the table as it had been my ritual every morning. I prepared his meal as dead as a doornail. "Good morning, Riona! Are these all for Matt?" when his uncle came to the dining room wearing a suit looked like going somewhere. "Good morning! Yes, I always do this for him every morning!" I plastered a shallow smile. "Since he can't really eat them all, please have some bite!" and also continued when I saw him just staring at the food. "That's very sweet of you, Riona. You can feed him soup. For the moment, that's the only meal he can swallow!" Baron told me upon sitting and began cutting the omelette in a half. "By the way, where is King Victor?" I questioned when I couldn't find him. Since
Matthew POVThe sun was bright, the weather was cool, the scenery was breathtaking. Was I in paradise?A hue of the white-blue sky shone upon the fields of cosmos flowers enticing me to run freely, pick some, and just lay down on the green grass beside the lake...of which I hurriedly did!"This is so fun, Argo!" I screamed in gladness while calling my four-legged brother who had been with me since I was announced as the prince of Blue Moon Pack, the strongest kingdom in our world of werewolves.My human legs ran wild till a transition of my shifting arose as Argo came out, jumped high in the air, and galloped as quick as a flash. I felt my energy elevate, my keen eyesight lit up the path brighter than ever. A wolfish smile emerged from me when I reached the green lawn and the calmness of the lake welcome me."Beautiful!" My lips whispered after going back to my human form with clothes intact, I was flabbergasted. It had bee
