ALPHA GUNNOLFI had not been able to sleep for days now. I had no idea where Leonie was, and how I was going to find her. I moved to the window and stared at the moon. “You’ve not told me why I have a human as my mate. I don’t know what sort of cruel game this is, but I honestly want it to end. I’m tired of it,” I muttered. “I want a mate that is a werewolf, preferably Alex Dew,” I said calmly. I gasped as I felt like my heart was about to break into a million pieces. Ugh! I clutched my chest in pain. This wasn’t fair. I almost thought that the moon goddess was punishing me for disobeying her.My wolf had been silent, and not responding to me since the conversation with my mom. I knew he was pissed. He was hurting because he couldn’t find his mate, and I was being insensitive.But, how could I share in his pain when it felt like I was drowning in pain. I needed to find Leonie first and then, I would figure what I have to do. With that thought in mind, I held myself together, and the

ALPHA GUNNOLFMy fingers clasped around my staff, as I stared into the open space where Leonie would make her appearance. I was beyond livid, and irritated with all that has been happening. I couldn’t believe that things would get this bad, and it annoyed the daylights out of me.Beside me, my mother sat on her little stool. She had been trying to get me to look at her, but I wasn’t having it. I was angry at everything that was happening and was in no mood to look or communicate with her. She wasn’t understanding anything because of her desire to see me with a mate, and I would have to make sure that is solved.There would be no mate for me. I’m never going to accept Leonie. I hated her to the core of my being. I would never forget what her kind did to me. Both mother and the moon goddess were wasting their tine in this situation.Just then, I saw her. Leonie had her head bowed, and she looked beaten even without marks on her skin. Her eyes were swollen. She must have been crying as s

LEONIETina stood by the door glaring at us. “What is going on here?” She screamed at us.Sara stepped forward, and she had the decency to look like she was sad about what was happening. I frowned at the whole thing, and tried to maintain my cool but it was proving so difficult.“Miss Tina, it’s al her fault. She was reckless while mopping and she kicked the whole bucket down, spilling dirty water everywhere. When I tried to tell her about it, she got angry,” she lied smoothly.I stared at her, stunned. I couldn’t really believe that she had the decency to say such an expensive lie? I just couldn’t get it.“That’s not true,” I negated.Tina looked at me, and I swallowed hard. She had definitely changed and wasn’t the woman who had been so kind to me earlier. I had no idea what to think.“I don’t care about the truth, all I know is that this mess is proof that you were the orchestrator of all that is going on now. So, that is definitely enough for me.”I swallowed hard. “No, please.”

ALPHA GUNNOLFI whistled as I stepped into the palace. I was so happy these days because I had successfully channelled my energy into ignoring Leonie. Alexa was a nice distraction. She’d keep me away from thinking incessantly about Leonie, and she was good in bed too. That was a plus.‘But, she is not our mate,’ my wolf mumbled.I rolled my eyes. “Suck it up, man. I’m never accepting her as our mate. Since I can’t find a way to reject her yet, I will just have to leave it like that,” I mumbled.‘Ugh! You make it seem like the goddess didn’t know what she was doing when she gave you Leonie as a mate. I hope you know you’re so disrespectful to the goddess wishes,’ he snapped back.I bit my lips from saying a word more. Other than Leonie, my wolf was becoming incessantly annoying. It was becoming too much now, and so annoying. I was about to go up the stairs, when I glimpsed a movement on my left. I turned to see the head maid coming right at me. Tina looked flustered as she ran to me.

LEONIEBang! Bang!I placed a hand on my temple as I wondered what was going on. Who was hitting the door that way? She slowly got to her feet, and she felt more like herself this time. Thank goodness!The ointment had worked. Gina had known what she was doing. She was truly a healer with a reason. The knocks were still coming. I groaned.“Who is there?” I asked with a sigh.“Come outside in 30 minutes,” Tina called out.I blinked. I pushed out of bed quickly, and then saw my outfit at the other side of the room. I had completely forgotten that I was a damn maid in this part of the world. I needed to be more careful now. I had a quick shower, and remembered what Tina had said about my hair. In other not to get into another punishment, I quickly washed my hair with one of the soaps on the sink. I had no idea what it was used for, but who cares. I stepped out and quickly changed into my clothes. I hoped I wasn’t late. I had no sense of time here.The gown was pink and it wrote, worse
