Lizelle's point of view
Alex and I both arrived at the pack house, AKA Alpha's manor. There were alot of guards in front of the manor, alerting everyone that comes in that there is fire on the mountain. Alex parked in front of the entrance not bothering to park in the pack's garage which substantially looks like an automobile company, if I am not exaggerating. But seriously it's big to the extent that fifty cars can fit in.
Yep, I am out of point.
When we entered the living room, Nathan was on the phone, Amelia and Natalya were trying to conciliate a woman and her husband. I had seen Dylan on the training field, training the warriors while Carter was going through some paper work.
What the heck happened?
Natalya raised her head and sighed in content when she detected that it was me and Alex. "Thanks goddess, you're okay."
I stared at her in daze. Why wouldn't I be okay. "What happened?" I asked as my eyes went to that woman that's bawling her eyes out with tears.
I wonder what happened to her.
"The guards found a dead body of a girl while patrolling, near the border. Along side a warning note." Amelia spoke up, her hands trembling with fear.
A dead body. Near the border. Who would kill an innocent girl and place her dead body at the border of her pack. This pack has alot of enemies, which I am aware of but taking an innocent girl's life is just sick and extreme.
I nudged my head towards the couple that were still crying. "I am guessing those people are the girl's parent." I asked Natalya because she was near me.
"Yes."
"So what's the warning note about?" The contiguous moment I asked that question, everyone stopped dead in their tracks and turned to look at me. Even the girl's parent. I arched my eyebrows at them. They all looked angry, worried and upset. Nathan was the worst, he looked beyond furious, exactly like a raging volcano.
I watched as Nathan ran upstairs, taking three steps at a time. Amelia mumbled a feeble 'Go after him'. I managed to get a hold of her incoherent words and forced my wobbly legs to follow him.
I groaned when I saw him enter his office and slammed the door hard. He was way too choleric to notice that I was trailing behind him. I twisted the door knob and was surprised to find it opened. He didn't lock the door. That could only mean two things.
He knew I was following him. Or
He forgot to close the door.
I walked into the room, taking in the familiar features. It was still marvelous.
How did so much happen one day?
He was as usual sitting on his chair. But this time around his eyes was closed, mouth slightly ajar and a tint of pink on his cheeks because of his irrational anger that was slowly disappearing. He was calming himself down, cool.
I walked over to his side and placed both of hands on his shoulders. I felt him tense underneath my palms before it was replaced by ravishing sensation of sparks. I can feel sparks. Wait, I can?
Of course I can. Experiencing sparks with your mate doesn't really have any relationship with having your wolf or not. It's more like a natural instinct that the moon goddess blesses you with.
I began to massage his softly. He starts to relax under my touch, leaning in. I thought of hugging him from behind but kicked against it when I felt him tensed. He not-so gently removed my hands and stood up. "What are you doing here?" His husky voice deep as his nostrils quivered.
I rolled my eyes, putting my hands on my hip. I watched at his eyes darkened at my movement, not that his eyes aren't dark anyways. "You know too much if anger isn't good for your health. I mean you get angry anytime I come close to. Does it look like I have a plague?" I asked, surprised at the anguish in my voice.
"I don't want you near me, is that hard to understand?" His bored expression didn't falter.
"Why? Because you think I am a plague. I am absolutely sure you didn't consider Melissa a plague when you dated her." I stated with pure disgust.
I swear one second he was behind the chair and the next he was in front of me. Anger seeping from his body like flames. He was beyond pissed.
"Mention her name one more time and I swear...... "
"What will you do? Reject me? Sorry to bust your bubble but go ahead, be my guest. I've been expecting you to do this all morning." I yelled glaring daggers at him.
The heat his body was providing was making me sweat profusely. I refused to look down, meeting with his intense gaze. "Rejecting a mate has never been done in this pack before, especially a Luna. And it's not going to start from me."
Talk about making your point clear.
I smirked when I thought of a life-destroying decision. My next choice of words is going to change my life for good and I was ready for it. "I Lizelle Andrea Christopher reject you Alpha Nath......" I didn't get to finish what I started as he violently grabbed my wrist and roughly shove me out of his office.
"And for the record we are still mates."
I opened the door to my room after passing alot of rooms on the fifth floor. Nathan's office was the first on the floor, the second being his room. Mine was the tenth on the row. A total number of twelve rooms occupied the fifth floor.
It was still the same way I left it. Except there were bags on my bed. Shopping bags to be precise. I went over and saw a note on the last bag. It reads;
Hi Lizzy. Natalya and I went shopping for a few things and decided to buy you a couple of clothes since your cupboard is literally empty. I hope you like the black bag. I got it specially for you.
Love, Amelia.
There were five bags. One with sweatpants and jean pants. One with shirt and tops. One with dresses and night dresses. One with shoes and makeup kit. And the last one was the black on Amelia was talking about
Victoria Secret was labeled on the bag. I opened it and saw different types of lace bra and undies. And also three lingeries.
Amelia has got to be kidding me.
I carefully placed all the clothes in the cupboard. If I am going to stay here for a while I might as well get comfortable.
My thoughts drifted to Noah. I had broken up with him for three reasons.
He raised his hand to me.
He cheated on me.
He killed his mate.
He is a psychotic maniac. I know.
Alot of things happened while I was dating Noah. My dad died during that time. The Alpha and Luna were attacked. My mum told me that it was a horrid incident.
For some reason I started to think that Noah was somehow involved in it. But there's no way it's true. He was literally always with me. Every single time until I pursued my dreams to become a nurse.
I had become a nurse because my mum wanted me to become one. And also love helping people. I knew my middle name should have been humane instead of Andrea.
Just kidding. I love my middle name.
I looked outside the window after pushing myself up to sit down on the sofa-like bed near the window.
There were guards looking around outside the pack house. They even further moved into the nearby forest looking around. A knock interrupted my thoughts causing me to jump.
I opened the door and stared at a woman in her late fifties. She looked very old and haggard. I gave her a confused state and that seem to make her snap out of the haze. "Anastasia."
Now I have a real reason to be confused. Who is Anastasia. "Excuse me?"
She shook her head. "No that's not what I wanted to say. I was thinking of my late sister and her name flew out if my mouth before I could stop it. I am sorry Luna."
"It's okay." I smiled.
As if remembering what she came her to do, she slapped her palm against her wrinkled forehead. "The Alpha asked me to come and get you. There is a fashion designer downstairs for you. And lunch has been made for you."
I nodded in understanding. Downstairs. I don't really feel like taking stairs again. It's a punishment.
"Do you mind bringing the food to my room and also ask the designer to come up to my room."
She turned and left. A fashion designer. Why do I need a fashion designer? Natalya And Amelia already got me clothes, so why do I need a fashion designer? Nathan sure does know how to exceed with his spendings.
Suddenly, I felt pains in the lower part of my abdomen. The feeling is way too familiar for me to ignore it. Oh no, no, no, no. Please don't be. An abrupt knock had me flinching in fear.
I opened the door to see the old lady but with tray of food in her hands. I ushered her in. She dropped the tray on the bedside table and was about to leave when I stopped her.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5,
I breathe in heavily. "Can I get some spare tampons please?"
She halted in her steps and turn around. She smiled before nodding and went out.
However, she didn't come back alone. She came with the fashion designer. She looks like an Indian but she dressed like an American. The old lady placed the pack of tampon on the table near the bathroom door and left us alone after I said thank you to her.
I turned back at the fashion designer and recognized her immediately after looking at her carefully. "Shreya Mehta."
And no she isn't a werewolf but she knows about our existence.
She is the famous Shreya Mehta. She has designed clothes for first ladies and models. And she is here to design my cloth.
So cool.
"Yep, that's me."
I will be right back, just have some business to take care of." I shoved the tampon inside my jacket's pocket.
Shreya has long brown hair which she pulled into a ponytail. High-waist jean pants and tucked a white shirt which says, fashion show in. And a pair of black boots. She had brown warm eyes.
I looked down to my chest and noticed that I was till wearing my mum's locket. As soon as I was done, I stepped out of the bathroom. Shreya was on her phone, sitting on my bed.
"So Shreya..." She raised her head when she heard my voice. "What type of dress are you going to design for me. And for what occasion."
She smiled and handed me her phone. There was a white dress in all its glory. It was so beautiful and long, sleeveless with lace at the edge of the arms and hem. It has gems on it. The gems had the pinkish hint in them but they were still silver.
The waist panel had a bow and was also white. "Your Luna ceremony dress." She answered my question. "Do you like the design of the dress, it's my latest design."
Wait Luna ceremony?
Oh my God.
