That was exactly the reason why he hated Lana with passion because his past interaction with humans was an unpleasant one. His mistress deceived him and approached the witches to give her a love potion so she could potentially have Sahan forever. Now that he had already set his mind over the fact that Lana was also a human he could not afford to trust her either.


All humans were the same, untrustworthy, deceitful, sly and dangerous!


Sahan reached for the loaf of bread which was in front of him on the table and threw it on the floor. Lana looked at him reflexively in disbelief not knowing what he actually wanted him to do. Even though it was quite obvious but she somehow still hoped that he would reflect over his actions. Whereas, the alpha again gestured her to eat as he sliced the meat with the fork in his own plate.


Lana exchanged a glance with him and then looked at the morsel she was thrown at. The woman wanted to wail over her misery but all she could do was bit her lower lip.

“Eat! Aren't you hungry, huh?”

Sahan raised his eyebrow over her hesitation in eating the so called food, it was not a surprise for him to see Lana react that way.


After all, the way he treated her in the past few hours gave her the biggest misconception that the alpha might be into her. Even though that could have been true if she had a wolf or any kind of powers to make Sahan not dislike her. Lana was not sure if she should have proceeded with the said task or not. But the woman reflexively extended her hand and picked up the morsel.


The alpha sat there staring at her with no intent of stopping her from eating. Lana on the other hand still hoped that he might change his mind. She stole a peek from the alpha but when Sahan said nothing the woman had no other choice but to obey what he was meaning her to do. Lana’s lips quivered as her eyes clearly displayed the pain she was feeling in her heart as the woman was nearly about to take a bite of the morsel.


“Your highness!”

A sentry clad in the silvery armour arrived in the hall while holding a staff as he called the alpha. It appeared that the man must have had some important issue to state or else he would have never dared to intervene. It was highly obvious that everyone around the alpha valued their lives because everyone was aware of the possible consequences they would face.


The alpha moved his face towards the sentry with a visible annoyance while Lana seized the chance and put the morsel away. Meanwhile the atmosphere of the dining hall soon became tense upon the sentry’s arrival. Sahan became agitated by the person’s arrival even though he was sure that the sentry was just doing his job. The alpha looked at him with his sparkling golden eyes as Sahan banged on the table.


“What is it?”

His earthshaking bang and loud yell startled Lana who nearly jumped in her place. The woman was scared by now because at first it was the alpha’s hatred towards her. Now somebody had intervened and he would possibly vent the rage over her. The certain thoughts made every hair on her body rise assuming the ways alpha Sahan might use to ventilate his anger.



The sentry gulped but kept his eyes fixated on the alpha even though he could potentially see Lana sitting on the floor. The poor servant knew his limits and the possibility of the gruesome consequences if he laid his eyes on alpha’s woman. It did not matter if Sahan loved her or not she still belonged to him either way and no one was allowed to touch or see her. The alpha waited for the response and the dire reason for which he dared to intervene boldly.




"Pardon my intrusion, your highness."

The sentry bowed and apologised immediately knowing the constantly growing tension of the atmosphere. Whereas Lana stole a glance at the sentry who appeared to be a young lad and a werewolf. She reflexively looked at him when the young man appeared and kept on stealing some glances while wondering why everyone was so afraid of the supreme alpha.




"Lord Hawthorne's brother wishes to meet you, my alpha."

Lana felt like her heart would explode any second the way one after other bad things were happening. All hair around her neck and over arms rose upon hearing that lord Hawthorne's brother had arrived. It was obvious that he must have come to take revenge from Lana for his brother's death. And that very thought scared her even more for her miserable life, knowing that the alpha would not hold back from giving her to Hawthorne's brother.



Sahan cast a look at Lana and upon seeing her terrified expressions he was genuinely amused because she has assumed a lot more than she should have. The alpha wished to seize the advantage of her situation and decided to kill two birds with one stone. He settled comfortably in the chair and ordered the sentry who was still waiting for any kind of instructions.




"Bring him here, I will conduct the meeting here at breakfast."

The Alpha commanded as he interlaced his hands and looked at the frightful sentry who nearly shivered at the piercing gaze. Whereas Lana had no clue what was going to happen ahead because she could not expect anything good from the alpha.

"He must be hungry too."

Sahan looked at Lana with a lopsided grin knowing that she was assuming herself as prey.

"Hope not for blood."

Due to his exceptional senses he could clearly sense her breath getting hitched.



"As you command, alpha."

The sentry bowed and slammed his iron staff against the floor making a feeble sound due to the vast stretched carpet. Lana’s grip around the hem of her dress tightened while the morsel rested a bit away from her. Sahan leaned over and reached for her chin making Lana gasp over the sudden act.

"You sure love to ogle at other men, huh? Should I just pierce your eyes and cage you in my bed chambers, so all you hear will be my voice?"



Lana looked horrifyingly into his glaring golden eyes as she shook her head slightly. How could she display any emotion which could possibly be mistaken as disobedience?

"N- no….Pardon me, alpha."

Her trembling lips ensured that she was utterly terrified upon the consequences of looking at other men.




Due to her lord Hawthorne, the one who somehow saw Lana and took interest in her, being eradicated and now his brother had arrived, Lana was slowly becoming a nuisance for the alpha. And exactly those thoughts were making her conscious about her future, because if lord Hawthorne demanded blood for blood then the alpha might not refuse.
