Leah POV It was a bright and sunny day. I was in a good mood for some strange reasons. Well, technically there were various reasons why I should be in a good mood but I was not going to dwell on them. Taking a deep breath to calm my nerves, I opened my door which has become like the gate to my life. When I was in my room I could do whatever I liked but once I took a step outside my doors, I had to mind my words and actions. Today, I would be going to pick some herbs and also check on the maintenance guy in the factory. Yesterday I could not go there due to all the events that happened. Besides, I later heard Marcus had gone there so it gave me a little bit of comfort. As usual, Evelyn was already standing there waiting for me. She looked as vibrant as always. I had the urge to compliment her for all she had been doing but I decided to wait a little bit more, just to observe. “Good morning, Luna. Will you be having breakfast?” She asked when she saw me. I didn't feel like eati
Damian POV“Who gave you the authority to do that without his permission?” Stephanie yelled at Marcus who was standing by the side of my office.I could understand why she was angry and bothered about the announcement he had made in our absence. It was uncalled for. He might have had good intentions for doing that but it made me go against my word. After promising Stephanie that I would not introduce Anne to the pack, I should have commanded them not to do it either. There would be no mess now. “Say something Damian,” she whined like a petulant child. “Let's not dwell on it, Steph,” I told her weakly. My shoulders were still sore. I didn't have the energy for this. “Not dwell on it?” She screamed, her face turning red with anger. Her eyes narrowed and looked at me suspiciously. “Leave, Marcus,” I dismissed him before she continued ranting. He bowed and left the room. “You do not tell him to leave when I'm still speaking Damian. It makes me look weak,” she admonished me. “Give i
Leah POV “Luna!” Tessa yelled as I was walking to the pack house. It felt like the day Marcus had introduced me there to everyone. Was there something going on in the pack house that I did not know about? On my way, I saw a group of men coming closer to me. They bowed immediately when they saw me. “We have been ordered to bring you to the pack house, Luna,” they said in unison. “Alright, let's go,” I accepted as that was my destination. Together we walked to the pack house. As I entered, the first person I saw was Connor, who had a hard expression on his face. He saw me and I saw him visibly relax and heave a sigh of relief. Did something happen? “Luna,” Amelia called out, coming towards me with her son in her arms. I had noticed she did not let her baby stop her from doing her work as the healer in the pack and I loved that for her. “What is going on?” I blurted out immediately. I could sense that something was wrong without being told. She wanted to speak but glanced at C
Damian POVI could see her fidgeting, like she was unsure of herself. Did something really happen to her when she went out? There was no scratch on her except her dirty hands. “That's a strange question, don't you think?” She asked back, going to sit on the sofa by the side. I walked up to her and touched her hair, removing the piece of leaf I had seen earlier. For some reason, I found her messy hair adorable. My hands were itching to play with them. She was looking at me with a confused expression, I almost smiled. I was also confused. One minute I wanted her, the next I was trying to convince myself that I didn't want her, thereby making her confused. Clearing my throat, I stood up. “How is the factory?” I asked, like I did not know anything about it. Meanwhile the technician had come to me to receive his pay. “He is done with the work. That was also one of the reasons I had come. Will you like to join me? I would like to ask Tessa to get me some men and women who are experienc
Leah POV Damian had changed. He had suddenly become an understanding man because tell me why I was standing here in a small spot in the clinic doing a little bit of mixing with the herbs I had brought yet no one cared. He had actually given me the permission to leave if I was going to get herbs for the pack. It felt like he was suddenly seeing my usefulness. Evelyn had tried to convince me to tell Damian about the attack with the wolf, but I refused. I believe we had wandered about and mistakenly woken him up. His arrogant nature and wildness of his beast showed he was not an ordinary wolf. Although Evelyn didn't like it, she refused to say anything about it for my sake. Right now I was in the clinic, trying to create a healing potion. I could feel Amelia's judging eyes on me. She had been acting strange ever since that day too. Stephanie was also nowhere to be found. It seemed they were having relationship issues. At least it made Damian to be a little bit soft towards me so
Leah POVI turned and turned till the cock crowed and I saw the sun rising. Finally, I pulled the covers away, stood up and went to take my bath. I came out feeling refreshed. The tiredness from lack of sleep was gone and in its place was anticipation for what would happen today. Since we were going to the market, I wore a very pretty dress, not wanting to look tacky or make Damian lose face. After choosing what to wear, I left the room. It was still a little bit early and Evelyn was not yet at my door. I ran down the stairs, in a good mood. The house was still very quiet and peaceful, a quality that happened only once in a while. Just then, I saw Evelyn coming out of her room. I thought she stayed in one of the rooms close to my room, I never knew she stayed downstairs. “Good morning, Luna,” she said with a smile when she saw me, then walked to the kitchen while I followed her. “Morning. I didn't know you stayed here. I always thought you were in the room next to mine since you
Leah POV Damian kicked the wolf away from me and they continued fighting. Who were they and where did they come from? My hands were trembling. “You need to shift if you want to be able to fight them all,” I told him and he grunted. They were giving Damian a tough time and I noticed it was because they were in their wolf form. Damian still wore his trousers so I guess that was why he did not want to shift. He twisted the neck of the wolf and shifted into his wolf form. He howled loudly in the sky and then all the wolves forgot about me and gave him all their attention. Damian was so strong. He fought all of them without pausing. I could not believe it. After a few minutes, the wolves started running away in fear, whimpering as they left. I ran to Damian and held onto his fur. It was coated with blood. His wolf gestured at me and I climbed him, gripping his fur with all my strength and we started running. I could not remember the last time I had run in my wolf form. Damian'
Leah POVTwo men started yelling at each other. The merchant was yelling at a buyer to leave but the buyer refused to leave. They went on and on until people gathered. “Come on,” Connor told me and pulled me from the seat. Damian came at that moment, pulling my hand away from Connor. He glared at Connor for a moment. “Here, have this,” he grumbled, handing me a piece of chocolate cake. It was carefully wrapped in a star shaped bag, looking very cute. “Thank you,” I murmured as I took it. The little argument taking place ended and everyone acted like nothing happened moments ago. “We need to see someone, will you be okay with Evelyn?” Damian asked me. I frowned.“Wait, you and Connor? Can't I come?” I asked him and he shook his head. “Can I ask who it is?” “It's someone I need to assist me with the mined lead. He is very skeptical about who sees him so I do not want him to be wary of me,” he explained. “You could walk around. When we get back I'll mindlink Evelyn and you'll both
