-Gabriella-"Gabriella, please do not hesitate to contact me if something goes wrong during your stay at the Blood Lust. I will advocate for you regardless of the circumstances!" Alpha Viktor spoke in hushed tones."Don't worry about me, Alpha Viktor; everything will be fine! What happened to me will not happen again under any circumstances! I'll make sure Javier is held accountable for what he did to me, and I'll make sure Amanda's family is held accountable for what they did to the Blue River!" I did respond.Alpha Viktor exhaled a sigh. He was holding both of my hands and looking at me with his eyes. His hands were warm, and something about the way he looked at me bothered me. Even though we're not physically touching, I can sense it."Gabriela, may I kiss you?" he asked as he turned to face me.My pupils dilated as a result of his question. I was taken aback when he requested something of the sort! I'm afraid I can't answer his question. He just stood there staring at me. I could
-Gabriella-It took Javier and me several hours to go from our previous location to the Blood Lust Pack. We proceeded straight onward to the Palace as a pair. When we entered, Amanda was standing, turned her face toward both of us, and smiled, but I could see from the look in her eyes that she was unhappy that I was here.Amanda approached me from a close distance and hugged me. I didn't say or do anything in response to her hug, instead standing there."Welcome back, Gabriella! You have no idea how much we miss you, especially the maids here," he said as we hugged. Javier questioned her by asking, "Is dinner ready, Amanda?"Amanda's gaze was drawn to him. She approached him, kissed his cheek, and said, "It's ready, Javier." She turned around and looked at me before continuing, "Gabriella's return demands a celebration, so I prepared all the delicious food I know.""Gabriela needs to rest because I know she's been busy today," Javier said.I turned to face Javier, who was also starin
-Gabriella-"Let's go?" I invited Eury after Amanda and I finished eating."Where are we going, Gab?" she asked me."We'll go shopping for your stuff!" I replied."We will go shopping? My things? Where are you going to get money to take me shopping?" She asked me. I could clearly see the surprise on her face, so I just smiled at her and grabbed her hand.I pulled her to the car we were going to use. I told the driver earlier, so he prepared the car."Are you sure about what you're saying, Gab? Explain all this to me!" she demanded an explanation.I tilted my head before answering, "Aren't you wondering why I joined Amanda at breakfast?" I asked her."No. When you were here before, you were already eating with them."I closed my eyes because she said, "Don't even ask me and come with me, Eury," I surrendered."Okay, but you need to tell me what happened to you! You've been gone for so long, and you just don't know how crazy it was for me to wonder where you are if rogue werewol
-Gabriella- I was sitting on my bed when there was a knock on the door of my room. When the door opened, Javier entered. His expression was serious as if he had something important to say. I took a deep breath before standing up to face him. He came closer to me while staring into my eyes. "What do you need, Alpha Javier?" I asked him. "What did you do to Amanda?" He asked me back, which made me frown. "I don't know what you're talking about, Alpha Javier. I'm not doing anything to her," I defended myself. "Amanda left crying earlier, Gabriella. When I asked her what happened, she said I would ask you," he informed me. My forehead furrowed even more because of what he said. "If you're asking me, I didn't do anything bad to her, Alpha Javier. If she's referring to what I told her, I have no regrets," I replied. "Why, what did you say to her, Gabriella?" He asked curiously. "I just told the truth," I answered briefly. He frowned at my answer, "Truth? What truth did you
-Gabriella-"Where is Amanda?" Alpha Arman, Amanda's father immediately asked when he entered the palace together with his Luna. "Luna Amanda is in her room, Alpha Arman," one of the servants answered him. Not long, Javier arrived and faced Alpha Arman."Why are you suddenly visiting here, Alpha Armand?" Javier asked him. Alpha Arman glared at Javier, "Where is Amanda? Why did the rogue werewolves attack her!?" "She is fine now, Alpha Arman. You don't need to be worried," Javier assured. "She's fine? She's in her bed, and you tell me that she's fine!?" I tilted. The disappointment and anger on Alpha Arman's face because of what happened to Amanda were obvious. "Where is she!?" Alpha Arman yelled. Javier sighed before he answered, "She is in her room. She is resting now, Alpha Arman," Javier answered. Alpha Arman and his Luna quickly walked to Amanda's room. When Javier followed, I followed them. I haven't seen Amanda since she came back here to the Palace. She has been
-Gabriella- Alpha Arman let go of me, and we tuned in with Viktor. His face was serious as he looked at Alpha Arman. "What do you think? Are you going to continue what you have said or not?" Alpha Viktor asked him calmly, but there was an authority. Alpha Arman hissed, "It will not happen if you will take her from Blood lust, Alpha Viktor!" Alpha Arman answered. Viktor approached me. He grabbed my arm and pulled me towards him. "I can do what you want, Alpha Arman, but the question is, will Alpha Javier agree?" Viktor answered and asked. We all looked at Javier, who was listening to the conversation. "Let Alpha Viktor take this worthless woman, Javier!" Alpha Arman ordered. I clenched my fist. If Alpha Arman doesn't stop speaking nasty words toward me, I will strip him of his werewolf ability! "No, Alpha Arman. She will stay here," Javier rejected Alpha Arman's wishes. Alpha Arman glared at Javier, "Why? Why can't Gabriella just stay at Silver Fang? Why does she have
-Gabriella- "Are you sure of what you said, Alpha Viktor?" I was shocked when I heard what he said. "Why, Gabriella? Don't you want me here? Don't you want to be with me?" he asked. His voice was gentle which made me gulp my saliva. We were looking at each other. I didn't know what was happening to me. Right after the scene in Amanda's room, he invited me to hang out in the garden to talk. When he told me that he would stay here until the Separation of Alpha and Luna Ceremony was over, I didn't know what he was thinking. "Don't worry, I won't bother you whatever your plan is. But, you can't stop me if your life is in danger because I won't allow anyone to hurt you, Gabriella," he assured me. I could see in his eyes the seriousness. I felt my face...no my whole body warmth because of what he told me. I never thought Alpha Viktor would be like this. If you look at him, he is a serious and scary person to approach, but all of that is contrary to those who believe in him j
-Gabriella- "I have to go back to Silver Fang, Gabriella, but expect me to be here tonight," Alpha Viktor told me. "I will wait for you, Alpha Viktor!" He smiled. He grabbed my hand and lifted to give it a kiss, "No worries, Gabriella. I'll be back as soon as possible!" he replied. Two days have passed since Alpha Viktor stayed here in Blood Lust. We did nothing but stay together. During Alpha Viktor's two-day stay, I noticed Javier's bitter face. I knew he wanted to talk when he saw us together, but at least once, he didn't say anything. He just kept quiet and watched as Alpha Viktor and I were together, even though he wanted to explode with jealousy. After Alpha Viktor left, I entered the palace. I was about to go straight to my room when Gwen approached me. "Luna Amanda is calling you, Gab," she informed me. I frowned because of what she said. What does Amanda need from me? I took a deep breath before walking to Amanda's room. When I entered Amanda's room, I saw he
