Selena’s POVAfter our whole episode of introducing ourselves was over and we both knew who we were, Lily y stood up from the bed and headed for the vanity while I watched her closely then she turned to look at me. “So you are going to have dinner with Raymond and the council of executives right?” she asked me and I nodded before I stood up to join her at the vanity and she sat me down on the chair in front of it.“What are you doing?” I asked her and she smirked.“Preparing you for the dinner of course” she replied and I quickly stood up from the chair to face her.“Woah, Woah, Woah. I don't see the need for that and I have no intentions of looking good for Raymond” I told her and she sighed before she forcefully sat me back on the chair and made me meet her eyes through the mirror in front of me then she placed her hands on my shoulders.“Who is in power and has this pack under his control now?” she asked me and I scrunched my eyebrows because the answer was obvious even though it
Selena’s POVLily finally finished adding her finishing touches to my face and she was done minutes later and when I looked in the mirror, I almost couldn't recognize myself as I stared speechlessly while touching my face in shock to be sure I was actually the one I was staring at through the reflective glass.“It's always like this first time but you'll get used to it soon,” she said and I grinned before collecting myself back together and I kept the facial expression and posture that would show my confidence just as she had taught me.“Woah! I look different!” I exclaimed and she smiled.“Do you like it?” she asked me and I grinned as I placed my hands on my lap and looked at her through the mirror.“Do I like it? No, I love it Lily” I replied and she laughed at my response before she walked off to the closet, and soon, she was back with a pair of shoes for me.The heels weren't too high and I was glad about that because I wasn't used to walking in heels.“I figured that you won't b
Selena's POVI and Raymond still shared a look and I wondered what was running through his mind at that moment. I wondered about what he could possibly be thinking about and I wondered if my and Lily's plan was working.I took another sip from my wine before I gently returned the glass to the table then I looked at him.“As I said, I wanted to surprise you…” then I stopped before leaning in closer to him so he would get a strong wisp of my perfume and I took my lips closer to his ear.“And I thought about everything carefully. Let's just say I decided to stick to the side that would benefit me” I whispered in his ear so no one would know what we were talking about then I pulled back from him and he was looking at me with eyes full of surprise. Just the reaction I expected to see when I told him what I just said.“Are you serious Selena? You aren't pulling my legs, are you? Have you really forgotten about everything and decided to work with me?” He asked me so many questions at a time
Selena's POVSoon, I was done having my bath and I left the bathroom for the room. Lily was seated at the table and she had a smile on her face once she saw me.“Someone did her part perfectly earlier tonight,” she said teasingly and I grinned back at her in glee.“I’m glad I met your expectations” I replied before I made my way toward the closet and she followed suit.I pulled a night dress from the wardrobe before I turned to look at her where she stood watching me and she raised her brows at me.“Why’re you staring at me?” She asked with a wide smile on her face and I shrugged.“You know you don’t have to go to the maid's quarters to sleep right?” I asked and she shrugged too.“Glad you're inviting me into your room then. I may be training you and all to help alpha get back his throne but you are still his mate and that makes you the luna so the respect should be there” she said and I laughed.“Please don't say that Lily, it just sounds so weird and I don't like that. You're my men
Alpha's POVI didn't want to be understanding but then I had no choice but to play along with her because I was trying to be understanding. Funny right?She was being honest though and the funny thing is I completely understood what she was trying to say but I wasn't sure if she was being completely honest with me because it seemed like she had more on her mind. She was on edge.I just had to let it go though, if she didn't want to talk about it, then I had to let her take her time until she was ready to come to me to bare her whole thoughts and fears but until then, I had to keep on playing according to her cards and support her for any decisions she makes about us.She was the only hope I had in helping me get my throne back from Raymond so I had no choice but to keep on being understanding until we got this major issue which was Raymond out of the way. It was the only thing we should be concentrating on at the moment.I jumped over the fence to the palace after making sure no one w
Selena's POVI walked back into the room after Alpha was gone and Lily was giving me a teasing look with a smile on her face.“What?” I asked her and she shrugged while giving me a clueless look and I rolled my eyes at her.“Come on just spill it already” I urged her and she laughed before she came toward me and placed her arm on my shoulder.“You and alpha seem to be getting along just fine and simple” she said and I laughed as I realized what she was trying to talk about then I took her hand off my shoulder before I looked at her.“There's nothing going on so you should keep your curiosity to the minimum” I said and she just sighed before giving me a long look and then walked away to the bed where she took the blanket off completely for me.“You should get to sleep, tomorrow is a long day for us” she said and I nodded before I walked past her and took the blanket from her.“So where would you sleep tonight?” I asked her and she shrugged again while looking around the room.“I don’t
Selena’s POVShifting was quite hard for me and that was when I knew that I had slacked off a lot. It had been a while and now, it was having its effects on me and it wasn't a good thing due to the situation that I was in. I had to work harder on my fighting skills if I knew I really wanted to be a help to alpha and not a bother.With that thought in mind, I connected my mind with that of my wolve’s and I growled lowly before I concentrated at the best I could before I focused all of my energy on my werewolf energy and began to shift for the fourth time.My bone snapped and cracked gradually and I howled and growled as I felt my skin expanding and changing into fur then after a while, I was completely in my werewolf form. I glanced at Lily before turning to Laisha and from the looks on their faces, they looked impressed which meant this time was way better than the first three times that I shifted. That felt encouraging and I suddenly wanted to practice more.I shifted back to my huma
Selena's POVI took my time to have my bath in the bathroom because honestly, I was reluctant about going down there for the coronation of Raymond into becoming the new alpha when Alpha was still very alive.I turned off the shower when I was done having my bath and washing my hair, then I walked to the mirror and stared for a long time as I watched the water that was left on my hair drip down to the floor.I didn't want to dress up just to look good for Raymond again. I hated the fact that he was the sole reason why I was playing dress up because if I wanted to look good, I wanted to do it on my own volition and not for a man that was a psychopath and was likely going to kill everyone around him one day due to his blind anger that he couldn't control.Sighing to myself, I took my gaze off the mirror before I took the towel that hung on the wall and I used it to dry my hair before returning to the room.Lily was holding a dress in her hand as I came out and it was purple in color… I a
