Rose’s POVI sighed as I gazed up at the monotonous ceiling.For the first few days of my arrival here, I had only resided within the four walls of my bedroom. The reason was partly out of a strange sort of rebellion, a reminder that though I agreed on it of my free will, I most definitely wasn't happy about it. The second reason was out of fear. I didn’t know what I was more afraid of - me My absence in wandering hadn’t seemed to waver the rest of the household. Every day, the people dressed in blue would knock at my door, either bringing breakfast, lunch, and dinner in the evenings. Occasionally they spoke, asking me if I needed anything else to which I always refused. I had fallen asleep constantly in the past few days, and I wasn’t sure if that was my body releasing the stress I had been through for the past few weeks or otherwise. Yet, everytime I fell asleep after a meal. I would wake up to see it gone.Thus, there really seemed to be no need for me to leave my room, and for

Rose POV.At my stunned look, I received laughter.“What? Couldn’t you tell?” He asked, raising his eyebrows.Rael as the Alpha?The more I thought about it, the more it made sense. From his annoyingly domineering personality to the way he gave orders so flagrantly, he definitely fit the bill.The title even suited him. I repeated it whilst thinking of his face. My traitorous mind went to the way he stood back in my room, his words.“All mine.”“We are bonded, Rose. For life.”Heat spread up my entire body, including my legs.‘What is wrong with me?’ I immediately cut out my thoughts. I refused to think about him. No matter how attractive he was, he was still an asshole.I repeated that in my mind before a voice brought me out from my thoughts.“Miss?”Immediately I turned back, the face making me remember that I was with someone.Pushing all other thoughts from my mind, I cleared my throat and wore a smile.“Sorry, I didn't hear you before,” I said apologetically.“So is it because h

Rose’s POVHis footsteps rung loud and deep. The more he came, the more his figure came into sight.He wore his usual set of clothing, a complete black set with a shirt, suit and trousers. His hair slicked back perfectly, showcasing his perfectly shaped jaw. His eyes stared even more intensely.He looked like a wet dream as always, and if it was any other time, I would have been appreciative of his looks. Now I was only annoyed.“Well, look who's back!” I muttered loud enough for him to hear me as he walked across the hall, passing the dinner table as he did.He paused for a moment, before he walked further off.“Aren’t you supposed to greet or show common courtesy?” I turned, only to see him still ignoring me as he passed.Every second of silence threw me off. Every single time, it was the same thing.Ever since I found myself leaving my room, there was nothing for me to worry about when it came to Rael's presence, specifically because there was an evident lack of it. In the evenings

Rose POVStumbling across the polished floors, I had finally regained control of my body as I made to run.But where could I go? The place looked desolate. It came to me quickly. He had obviously led me away from the eyes of any pack member or any witnesses. I couldn’t have called for help or ran for refuge when I didn’t even know where I was, or how far I was from any pack members. I was completely alone.I cursed at myself. Though he had led me here, I was the one who stupidly followed, not even noticing the trap he led me to.Looking back at him, he seemed to be growling, yet hadn't moved. It was as though he was simply biding his time, playing with his prey.The thought brought in more fear and anger to me. I had to move quickly. I was afraid, but I wouldn't go down without a fight.The memory of my past experience came back. I was in shock back then. When I was attacked back then, I was fearful. The memory of the pain, the slashes, and the victorious growls of the wolves.The

Rael POVI waited for Adian to finish the call, looking toward the sleeping dankeh. After listening through, he turned toward me.“I've called the collectors. They'll be here soon to collect the wolf to the experimental lab. Hopefully, this time, we get more info to find out what we need.” ‘Good. ’ I thought to myself, taking a final glance at the wolf before turning toward Adian. There was no doubt nor question in me in his words. I trusted his implicitly after all. It was one of the reasons I had made him my Gamma years ago.“Do not alert the Elders of this situation just yet. We need to conduct more research before we give them any reports of the events here,” I said, which he nodded at in return. “Yes, Alpha.” He simply replied.In an instant, my body relaxed and my mind eased a little. There was no need to inform the Elders just yet. Not until I could come up with a concrete explanation for what had just happened.Turning back to the sleeping body of golden brown fur, the gears
