"What do you want?" I sharply replied when someone rudely shoved me out of my comfortable bed. It was one of those annoying guards the Alpha put up. It was only ten in the morning.
"The Alpha ordered me to guide you to breakfast, he wants to talk to you," The armored man gruffly said and I grew even more irritated. What kind of a wake up pill did he take? We slept at three in the morning and he managed to wake up at ten, who does that?
"Well, tell your Alpha to shove it," I hotly replied and went back to my bed and into the soft pillows. The guard attempted some more until he gave up and reported to the Alpha, who barged into my room.
"Destalia, wake the fuck up and stop being a child," The Alpha roared at me, carrying me out of the very comfortable bed. The guards seemed scared of him when he was angry at me, they quickly went back to their positions in front of my room.
"You're being a child, I don't want to eat, I want to sleep," I groaned and he glanced at me in amusement before getting back to his stony expression.
"I'm going to drop you in a cold bath if you don't open your eyes," He warned and I grunted, muttering a string of curses under my breath, that Alpha was sure as stubborn and angry all the time.
"I'm awake," I opened my eyes at his flawless face and blinked to get rid of the sleepy haze I was so blissfully in.
His arms were soft around my body as he carried me downstairs in only my silk short nightdress and I widened my eyes, he stared down at the bare area with dark lust in his eyes.
"Hey, eyes up here," I snapped my finger but the mixed excitement in my chest said otherwise, Lace kept dropping sexual hints inside my mind and I was blushing furiously.
He smirked when he felt my wolf stirred in dirty thoughts and gave me a peck on the side of my mouth, making my heart almost escape out of my ribcage. That jerk knew what effect he had on me and took that to his advantage as his hands lingered on the small of my back when he dropped me gently to walk to the dining room.
I pulled my body away from his touch and he rolled his eyes at my antics, I was not going to surrender that easily. He was intolerable with his mood switches.
He can use his very irritating skills in bed with us. I shivered at Lace's dirty thoughts at imagining that.
"As I told you before, the war is going to happen today so I expect you to be in the safe house with other women and children," I forgot about that for a moment. The dread crept up on my skin like a second coat and the fear of losing my mate was getting harder on me since I just found out a few days ago.
"Are the people going to be protected from the war?" He seemed a bit surprised at the caring tone of my voice since he was used to me defying him and making him angry all the time. He sat down in front of me in the dining hall, the long table separating us.
His eyes gleamed at me when he said, "I am the Alpha of the most fatal pack ever existed, they will be more than okay," His smugness made me scoff like I expected him to say that and he smiled genuinely at me.
I picked at the hash browns in front of me when the silence engulfed us both. I had to do something about the war between my ex-pack and this pack, I needed to make the Alpha's pack trust me and there was only one way to do that.
Stopping this war that was bound to happen.
Although Alpha Raden made it clear that he wouldn't stop the battle, I had other plans to make him.
We finished and he stepped closer to me in intimidation. "You will not step away from the mansion, the guards that I assigned will be there."
"I will miss your scent, as much as I want to stay here with you, I can't because there will be training." My eyes widened in excitement at the mention of training and my wolf seemed very much up to it. He seemed to turn into a soft-hearted mate, like the one I wished him to be so I took my chance.
"Please, can I come?" I said against his neck as he hugged me tighter, his scent was very calming.
He hesitated at first when he peered down at my pleading face, I didn't like being kept alone in a room, I was desperate to go out and explore. He saw that and nodded, I jumped, wrapping my legs around his waist
"Thank you, thank you." I kept repeating that as I smothered him with pecks all over his face as he smiled and laughed.
I was going to train today to be the toughest she-wolf out there and a faithful Luna. I wouldn't let anyone stop me.
I would even tear the busty girl who dared to scream at me out of my room apart.
I needed to find out what she meant to him so much that he had to defend her in every argument we had. I felt like I will know all of the unsolved mysteries the deadly Alpha hid and I would take advantage of that until he confessed who was she.
