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
Damian POV She was so stubborn. I controlled the urge to bend her over my knee and smacked her ass until it turned red. How could she be so reckless? I had never been so scared for someone, not even Stephanie. “I… I… I thought I could throw him off his feet. I just wanted to know the one behind the recurring attacks today,” she grumbled, looking like a lost puppy. At least puppies listened to their masters. I shook my head, picking up my clothes which I had taken off just before I shifted into my wolf. Her eyes trailed down my body without shame and I could see her nod in appreciation as she saw my body. Just for effect, I flexed my packs and muscles as I wore my shirt. She licked her lips seductively and once again I was drawn back to the first time I tasted her lips. I would love to do it again but this was not the place. “You do not have your wolf yet,” I reminded her. “Do not try to fight anyone for now. You're not as strong as you used to be,” I told her. She sighed but ag
Leah POV I stood in front of his door, not knowing why I was so scared to knock. It was not like he would reject the little gift I had bought. Would he think I was making a pass at him? What if Stephanie was inside? I would be mortified. While no one was looking, I saw a very pretty sweater and bought it right off the hat without thinking and now I was standing here, regretting my decision. I should have given it to him earlier but I was too shaken by what had happened to remember. I had to be courageous. I was not doing anything wrong. If Stephanie was in the room too, then so be it. Mustering a fake courage, I raised my shaky hands and knocked on his door. No one answered after a minute so I knocked harder on it. Maybe he was not in the room. I should just go. I went on my knees, planning on pushing the sweater through the tiny hole at the end of the door. Just as I was unwrapping the sweater to act on my plans, the door suddenly unlocked and it opened. I lifted my eyes
Leah POV I loved the way he looked at me. It made me feel powerful. I felt in control. His fingers touched my face, tracing it down to my neck and I shivered. “Is this enough for you to keep it?” I whispered. If someone had asked me if I was ever going to do this just to make Damian keep the gift I bought for him, I would have bluntly denied it. But here I was, kneeling in front of him. “Yes, that's enough. You're being a really obedient girl and it suits you more,” he told me and I frowned at his words. What did that mean? “No need to look upset, I'm not trying to scold you,” he placed his thumb in between my eyebrows and smoothened the lines on them. I smacked his hands away and stood up. “It's late, I need to go,” I got ready to leave. I had spent more than enough time here. I did not want to be caught by Stephanie, who might be here anytime soon. “I never told you to stand,” he raised an eyebrow. “I know but it's late. Someone could..” “I don't care. I'm the Alpha a
