OLIVIAI took a quick glance at Alpha Damon and smiled bitterly at him. He must be so close to Claire for him to know her this much. If they have such a good relationship, why did he bring me here to be left in the middle of all this? “Are you okay?” I heard Alpha Damon’s soft voice that brought me back to ogling at him. I smiled at him again, but this time around, it was with a nod. I adjusted the tray of food in front of me because of my sudden loss of appetite. I wasn’t expecting myself to be in this situation. When he sees Claire as an angel, what can I say to convince him that he is being played and manipulated by her, since that is what she is very good at? “Are you not going to eat again? You barely touched your food, you did the same thing yesterday,” he accentuated. I did not think he would notice such menial things. I couldn’t eat yesterday because I was not comfortable. I flat out felt ignored by the dining, and Claire’s glares were almost choking me to death. I lost
I peeked at him to see him leering at it without averting his gaze. He wasn’t having that Enraged look on his face anymore, he was gawking at it with softness and longing.He must’ve missed the Luna dearly, if this belongs to her then, she is lucky her mate still thinks about her and longs for her even after three years have passed. Up till this moment, I do not know what happened to the Luna. Karen once mentioned that her death wasn’t ordinary. There was a case, but what was it? How did she end up dead and why did those rumors about Alpha Damon disassociating himself from other females after the Luna’s death keep spreading? I shouldn’t be curious about it since it has nothing to do with me, but my inquisitiveness got to me. There were also rumors about the Luna dying because of Apha Damon. But if that was the case, he wouldn’t be staring at her belongings with such a gaze. For the first time since I got here, I could finally read him. He didn’t hide his emotion, or maybe he got
I glanced at Claire and then at Zania, who nodded her head at me. Without uttering a word, I began moving towards Claire, who was already walking out of my room. She was mad. I could tell from the way she spoke to me earlier and the way she was walking away. I couldn’t keep up with her pace. Claire is tall. She is a beautiful definition of a perfect creation. I am nowhere compared to her with my short legs. “Are you stupidly this slow or you are trying to make me talk?” Claire flared. She stopped and turned to look at me. How is she expecting her to walk when she is so fast? At least, I know the road to Alpha Damon’s quarters. It doesn’t matter if she gets there before me, but then, I am trying to avoid a lot of things that will bring problems to me.She is the last person I want to get on her nerves. I know my presence riles Claire up, but there is nothing the both of us can do about it.I do not have anywhere else to go to and she can’t send me away. “I’m sorry,” I apologized an
After his assertion, I couldn’t say anything to him. My words will betray me if I choose to.We worked for another thirty minutes in silence until we were done. My wrists were hurting from holding the papers for too long. I watched as Alpha Damon arranged the papers, dropped them at the side, and stood up. I did the same too! “You did great today,” he praised, walking towards his bedroom. Since he didn’t ask me to follow him, I stayed in the same spot and waited for him to come out, which he did. “Thank you” A small smile crept on my face at his compliment. This should be the first time he has complimented me since I got here and it does feel different. He walked around the room for a minute before turning to me. “Why are you standing? I didn’t ask you to do that” he narrowed his eyes on me. I bit my lips, moved forward a bit, and slowly sat on the bed. If there is nothing else I am doing for him, shouldn’t he ask me to go? “Are you getting along with Claire? I hope she is treat
DAMONMy hand clutched tightly to the chair the moment Olivia was out of my sight. My breath echoed through the silent walls of my room with my chest heaving painfully. This pain hasn't occurred in a while, I was wrong to think that the pain must've gone completely. My wolf groaned in pain and hissed loudly as he curled tighter into me I tried moving from my position but with each step I took, the pain intensified, leaving me growling in torment.Tiana, my mate, and I were poisoned three years ago by an unknown person. I still haven't gotten a hold of the perpetrator. The power of the poison instantly took her life while I survived but I now have to live in pain for the rest of my life given the fact that the cure has not been found. For three years, I have been living with the pain of losing my mate while struggling to live. No one has been able to identify the kind of poison that was used on us even after proper examination. The only person who knows how I can get out of this m
OLIVIA My bulging eyes snapped at him after comprehending his statement. “What?” I asked, hoping he'd repeat what he just said. Are we doing a strip show? How can he ask me to strip out of the blue? “Why do you like making me repeat myself? You heard me clearly, Olivia. Strip!” he scolded with a little howl. My wolf juggled inside me, pushing to take control but I refused. Seeing that he wasn't joking around, I absentmindedly bit my lower lip as he folded his hands while staring and waiting for my next action. Without saying anything, I followed his instructions and began removing my dress until I was clad in just my underwear.A surge of cold watched through my body, making me cover myself. I was embarrassed to stand naked in front of Alpha Damon. I know he has seen me naked but this is a different thing, the fact that I don't know what he wants to do made me feel nervous. He stared at my body for almost a minute, as if he was examining it. I couldn't explain the look on his f
OLIVIAAlpha Damon’s laughter rang in my ears. His laughter made me forget about my embarrassment for a moment, he is anything but cold to me. The fact that he laughs in my presence gives me goosebumps since it's something he rarely does. “Good morning, Olivia. I guess you slept well” he said, standing up from the bed. I nodded my head in response as I stared at him with the corner of my eyes, he was still in his shorts. I don't know why he took off his clothes yesterday if he was not going to get too intimate with me. All he did was to give me pleasure but never received one back because he thought I looked exhausted. “What are you thinking about so intently?” he asked with a furrowed eyebrow and grabbed his towel. “Nothing” I stammered. “Prepare to take your bath after me, or do you want us to go in together? It wouldn't be a bad idea” he teased with a smile on his face. My face turned scarlet red at his attempt to make me flush. If that was his thought, he succeeded. “I will d
DAMONI walked around the new construction in the pack, supervising the work they had done so far. I am constructing a new building for omegas. A lot of pups have died within two months due to cold and lack of shelter. Omegas deserve to have a good life too, they might have the lowest rank but they are not slaves, at least, in my pack. I am trying as much as I can to make the pack conducive for everyone since we are family. A part of this building will be used to accommodate the omegas while the other side will be used as the military camp to enhance security in the pack. A war can break out anytime and we don't have enough manpower to protect ourselves, just like five years ago. Many of my people died in the hands of Reed Pack not because we were not strong enough but because we were not trained. If that sort of mistake happens again, then it will be my fault. The only thing we can do to help ourselves is to gather enough male wolves and train hard. No one prays for a dispute
