Mate by Fate, Bound by Love

*******************************

Lena’s pov

I looked at the expression that was on Alpha Adrian’s face and I felt bad. He looked at me disgustingly which reminded me of the treatment I had received in the pack I ran away from.

I racked my brain as I can’t recall offending him in anyway. My greatest fear had suddenly become a reality. I was already deeply attached to this pack as I loved the atmosphere and the care and love shown to me by members of the palace.

I never wanted it to end, the attitude displayed by the ruling Alpha got me thinking, the change in attitude of the ruling Alpha concerning me is the change of attitude of the wolves kingdom concerning me.

I knew that the change of attitude portrayed by Alpha Adrian made me knew that my days of pleasure in the palace are almost over.

I looked at the maids in front of me and I told them to leave my presence politely in which they happily did. The environment which was a pleasant environment turned out to be the most suffocating environment for me.

I felt weak, fear began to sprout in me, I recalled the life of torture in which I had lived in my other pack and I shuddered. I never wanted to experience such again.

Different thoughts ran through my mind as I headed towards the library which was at the outskirts of the city. I looked at the expressions on the wolves faces especially the betas – it was full of mockery and pity.

I pondered on what could have caused such reactions on their faces because I knew that it was targeted at one person – me. Getting to the library, I went into the section which had wisdom books.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Removing one of the books, I opened it and began to read. I could not concentrate because I was thinking deeply on the current situation.

“Can’t you be quiet for once, do you always have to be noisy?” A voice resounded in my head. I smirked as I knew that Lyla was at it again, well…. She could not blame me, afterall she is a century witch while I am only but a young wolf.

“Be deceiving yourself, you’re stronger than you are right now” she said.

I rolled my eyes, anyone who sees the action in which I had performed would think I was been possessed or something.

Well…. they might not be far from the truth.

She chuckled in my head as I was getting angry with her, she had not asked anything rather she was laughing for a statement only she and the moon goddess knows.

“You’ve been moody all day?” She asked

Although she had the ability to bring forth words that would hurt one’s ego or pride, she had this caring attitude inside of her and brings it out whenever she wants to.

“Thanks for the compliment, it’s not good for the baby”. Lyla said

I looked at my portruding stomach and I smiled. I rubbed my stomach with so much love and affection as I looked like a mother who’s protecting her unborn child.

“Alpha Adrian no longer loves me” I said.

She hissed as she chuckled which increased the tempo of my anger, here am I reporting my love life to her and the best thing she could do was to hiss. I got so angry at the response she gave me.

“Don’t be angry baby girl, he was never yours to begin with” Lyla said.

I pondered on her words as I saw sense in her words, because of the treatment Alpha Adrian had showed to me, it created a spark of emotions as I had already began to develop feelings for him.

I was no longer annoyed or sad at my current predicament, I knew that the torture and hatred will increase, it might get too hot for me, Lady Claire would find all means to torture and humiliate me because I’m no longer her rival.

I knew that Lady Claire would use me to vent all her angers and frustrations. I did not care about the treatment that is going to be torturous if it was only going to be me.

This period I have a little baby growing inside of me, I was concerned and worried about the little one who was growing – I knew that it was motherly instinct which was kicking in.

The book which was opened before me looked interesting, deciding not to think about it, I moved the words to the back of my head as I immersed myself in reading the book.

I lost track of time, by the time I was done with reading the book, it was dusk. I did not have enough strength to walk back to the palace, I laid my head on the table and had a brief nap.

For the first time in a long while that I have enjoyed the conversation between Lyla and I.

Recalling back to the time, that I was awakened as a white witch and the witch was one who had the ability to offend a being through her talk, I was amazed on how I would wake up such a being as my guardian.

I woke up from the library and strolled back to the palace, getting to his chambers in the palace, I do not know what wicked plans Alpha Adrian had for me, I wished the night will be peaceful and quiet.

Times like this, tears run down my cheeks, I wondered if my parent were alive to see the pain and agony that I am passing through, how would their reactions be?

I entered into the chambers as I realized he was not in the chambers, I heaved a sigh of relief as I had reverted to the stage of being afraid and cautious of every slight opportunity.

There was a couch beside the bed, he will not be happy to find my irritating body on top of the bed, I slept on the couch, closed my eyes but I was very much conscious of the things going on in the chambers.
