LUCIEN’S POVWith every single second that passed with me in Alisha’s body, I was only getting angrier and in more awe over how she really could be.Her confidence was baffling. The fact that she knew who I truly was and yet, didn’t hesitate to treat me so poorly. She didn’t even care that I was in her body. She didn’t care about how all her cruel actions towards me were going to have indirect consequences on her own body and yet, treated me so lowly.For the first time in literally forever, I was treated without the respect I naturally deserved. I was grabbed by guards and was dragged out of my office.Just the thought was infuriating and I immediately turned to face the guards who had their grip on me. If only they knew who they were holding, they wouldn’t dare to lay even a single finger on me.“Let-“Just as I was about to yell at them in an attempt to get them to loosen their grip around me and stop treating me like a prisoner, I felt their grip loosening, the two guards quickly
ALISHA’S POVI knitted my eyebrows as I watched Calum walk up to me, boiling in anger. I could finally understand what was going on. His anger was directed towards me, the Alpha and not Lucien, the Luna he could see.“What is this about, Alpha Lucien?” He immediately demanded as he walked up to me. “I heard you punished the Luna by demoting her to Omega. Alpha Lucien, regardless of what she might have done, don’t you think that’s too harsh of a punishment? She is the Luna and even if she wasn’t the luna, think about our family’s long standing history. It is unfair and a taboo for us to be treated like this without any ounce of respect. I’ll like you to reconsider your decision and have that punishment revoked.”My heart softened as I listened to him patiently. He was still my brother after all and despite all that had happened, he hadn’t lost the compassion he had and felt towards me.“Is that all you have to say?” I asked him calmly. I didn’t want to interrupt him and would only want
ALISHA’S POVI immediately took a staggered step backwards, sending my gaze to the floor so Calum wouldn’t notice how shocked I was.He wasn’t a fool and had never been one. He was always quick to catch up on things but never did I imagine he’ll be able to guess I wasn’t the Alpha.“What?” I looked up at him, trying my best to keep a neutral expression on. I was suddenly conflicted- stuck between acting surprised and clueless. “What do you mean by that? Of course, I am your Alpha. I mean, why would you even think I’m not the Alpha?”“Because the Alpha I know,” he went straight to the point. “Is nothing like this. He’s an undeserving and insensitive person and that’s not who I am seeing right now.”I was supposed to get mad and take offense at his words but I couldn’t. He was completely right.“You see what I’m talking about?” He spoke up again, this time with a scoff. “The Alpha I know would never remain silent after I uttered such words. He would flare up and because of his ego, woul
LUCIEN’S POVMy mood had been revolving around constant displease for days now so I should have at least gotten used to it.But I refused to. Especially when I was welcomed to a new disrespecting or annoying situation every single day, pushing me to be even angrier than I was the previous day.My eyebrows were permanently knitted, my blood boiling in and I was doing a terrible job at hiding my emotions. Not like I was trying to hide it anyways- I had no reason to pretend I didn’t hate the situation I was in.No one could pretend they didn’t hate the situation I was in. After all, it was far from being fair.It was the weekend and i was spending it in the Omega’s camp, working like my life depended on it. Under normal circumstances, it had to be the most bizarre thing ever but Alisha had instructed the Omega Consul to ensure I worked like a lunatic. Too terrified to even dare to refuse the Alpha’s orders, he was left with no choice than to let me work, annoying me even more with every
LUCIEN’S POVThe rest of the day went smoothly and it was finally time for me to return to my room.I was able to stomach all of the insults and comments about the Alpha from the rest of the Omegas and in return, remained on their good side. Indeed, they greatly cared about Alisha and didn’t fail to show it.“Luna Alisha,” I stopped in my tracks as I was about to head out of the Omega camp, hearing a now familiar voice. “Wait.”“Here,” one of the omegas than had been really friendly towards me said, handing a pastry over to me. “I made it and wanted you to have some. I hope you like it.”“Oh,” surpised by her kind gesture, I collected the pastry from her slowly. “Thank you, Bella. I would enjoy it.”“You don’t have to thank me,” Bella smiled at me. “It’s the least I could do for you in gratitude. You’re the reason me and Maya are no longer quarreling. If not for your intervention, things between us would probably still be so bad so I’m very grateful towards you.” “Oh?” Again, I was c
ALISHA’S POVIt had to be the most futile hour that had gone by on my watch with me being unable to do anything about it.And by the look of things, another hour was already threatening to do the same.Letting out a groan, I slammed my head on the desk, pushing the computer slightly away from me. I was frustrated and had been frustrated for so long as I needed to get work done but was unable to simply because I was unable to access Lucien’s mailbox.I’d tried about a million different passwords, every single of them turning out to be wrong. With every new password tried, my patience level decreased and I could only wonder what in the world he had as his password and why it was so hard to guess.I couldn’t give up though. I had so much work to do and the first step was accessing his mailbox so regardless of how hard or impossible it was proving to be, I was just going to have to continue. “Why don’t you just ask him?”“Come on, Diana,” I whined at my wolf. “I cannot ask him. You know
LUCIEN’S POVAs much as I hated it, my body was slowly getting used to waking up at early hours.That morning was no different as I had gotten up early and got myself refreshed, ready to go on about my day. I was also getting used to having unpredictable days ahead of me- after all, I was no longer the Alpha who stuck to a routine already prepared for me by my numerous subordinates.With a sigh, I got of my room and decided to head straight downstairs. Amongst the things I was slowly getting used to was also not having my meals at regular hours. If I was lucky enough, there would be food at the table by the time i got to the dining and if luck simply decided to not be on my side, I would have no choice but to scavenge for food.Hoping it wouldn’t be the lather, I strolled past the corridors, heading downstairs. As I did, I was reminded of how the previous night went by and to make the memories even more vivid, I found myself in front of the study again.Just like the previous night, i
LUCIEN’S POV In a flash, i immediately lost every one of my sense of reasoning. My mind went blank and I couldn’t even remember the reason I was in the office or how I found myself in the office- the only thing replaying in my mind being the horrifying sight I had just witnessed. Camilla almost kissing Alisha. My actions were impulsive and so was the feeling I suddenly got in my chest. It felt like a tight rope pulling in my chest, hurting me with every second that passed as I remained frozen. It was wrong. Everything about it felt wrong. They were supposed to hate each other so why were the tides suddenly changing? “What do you think you’re doing?!” I yelled at the top of my voice, immediately rushing towards them. “What is this? How dare you?!” I couldn’t tell who exactly my anger was directed towards- Alisha for allowing Camila almost kiss her or Camila for trying to kiss Alisha or in fact, both of them for allowing themselves get tangled up in such a situation. “Alisha,” Ca
