CHAPTER 8


HAVEN'S POINT OF VIEW


Stupid!


I know that I was extremely stupid for voicing out my thoughts like that! I was dumb enough to curse him and even dare to say that words in front of him!


I bit my lower lip as I leaned on my chair.


This mouth of mine will really kill me. Not now, but maybe later.


Why can't I just stay quite and shut up, huh?!


My heart thumped faster when I heard his deep sigh. I didn't even try to look at his direction. In fact, I wanted the floor to swallow me straight right now already! That was extremely embarassing! Really.


And I even finally admit that I am indeed his Queen?! His mate! Oh God! But why should I hide it, though? He's already admitting it to himself too. He knows that I am his mate. He knows that.


But...I am still pissed off, really. Who implements that kind of rules, anyway? That's...disgusting. We always should have the freewill to thank a person if he or she did a favor for us. That's a basic and the right thing to do and it shouldn't be stopped by a stupid freaking rule!


When I heard a manly chuckle, that's when I looked up to him. I expected to see him mad and all but it was the opposite. He looks amused and...I can even see the proudness on his face as he stared at me.


I blinked my eyes repeatedly as I bit my lower lip while looking at the man.


He isn't...mad? But I thought that he was!


Wait... Not if it was just his pranks. Is he teasing him?! So it wasn't true?!



My heart throbbed when he stood up. His muscular body came into view. I quickly looked away, stopping myself from oggling too much. I seriously don't want to embarass myself the second time around today. One is enough. But I am not quite sure with that.


"Stand, baby. You have to rest, hmm? You really need a plenty of them. Don't worry because tomorrow, I will tour you around the mansion. You'll meet my Beta and Delta and maybe, some of the pack members too." He said as he guided me to stand. I made sure that my face hides the shock I am showing there when I heard what he said.


What does he mean by that? He'll introduce me to his Beta and Delta?! And even to some of his pack members?! That's ridiculous! I mean...


He won't...reject me for being slightly a rebel and going against his words awhile ago? I admit that I was really wrong on that, I've realized that now. It was wrong because I seriously don't have the right to say that when I don't stand even a tiny position here. Sure, he said I am his...mate. And I am convinced on that. I can sense his woody smell. His scent drives my insides crazy and I can never deny that even how much I try to hide it deep within me, I know to myself that I am attracted. Everything about him is something that I know will make me addicted if I stay here longer.


Yes. I will still leave if I'll have the chance to. I maybe attracted to him but as what I've said, I will never let my guard down. I still won't forget the fact that I was an unwanted mate before I met him. Tristan saw weakness in me, something that he know that's not suitable enough to be his Luna.


I know that my mate right now is treating me better than what Tristan did to me, but that doesn't mean he won't reject me too. That doesn't mean I will be unwanted too, just like before. So as much as possible, I have to guard myself. I have to guard my heart.


But yeah, I am open for...second chances.


When he left the room, I didn't rest just like what he told me to. I sat on the edge of the canopy bed instead and stared at the whole corner of the room.


The room was very spacious that I think it could pass as a house. It isn't even sparing any space around. The room is so beautiful and luxurious that I can't help but to stare around over and over again.


It was so obvious that I've been stuck up in a trashy place before with trashy people around too.


I sighed.


I stood up from my seat and decided to roam around the room. I know I've been here for days but I just woke up today and I wasn't able to explore the whole room for too long since...I was too shy to do that. And besides that, I wasn't also used to doing that. I am not that nosy afterall. I just want to appreciate what the man has offered me. But right, now...hmm, maybe I grew with some guts. Some guts to finally walk around by myself.


I already know where the bathroom is since I've been there when I woke up. There are exactly three doors in total here. One is the bathroom, one is the walk-in-closet where King changed his clothes first before leaving the room. He wasn't able to tour me around the room since in the first place, all he wanted for me to do today is to rest and rest. I find it boring. I've been lying my body for days and my back is already numb from it. It still hurts a little. I guess, it has already started to recover from the injury that I had when Tristan pushed me and my back hit the edge of the bed.


I turned the knob open to the last door that I haven't seen yet. I slowly poked my head inside and I noticed that it can almost be called a library. No. It was such a huge library connecting to the room of the King, to where I am currently staying up right now.


My jaw almost dropped as I completely get inside the room. Huge shelves of books are everywhere! I feel like my eyes are currently making a heart shapes right now as I continue to stare at the books.

Yes. Books fascinates me. So much. It has been a part of me eversince then. I grew up loving it. I've read a lot of fairytale books that influenced me to be a hopeless romantic. That was probably one of the reason why I got hurt. I hoped too much. I wished for the same fairytale lovestory for myself when in fact, nowadays it is rare. It is rare to find a true and genuine love.


Well for us, the werewolves, we are destined to meet our mates anywhere at the most unexpected time. The Moon Goddess chooses a partner for us. We are bind by connection first and we are all ought to fall in love with no one else but with our mates.


I narrowed my eyes as I stared at the table in front. It was near the glasswall.


This is...his office? Well, probably.


I slowly approached it. The wooden but shiny table almost hurt my eyes. There is a computer and some papers on the table and they were all organized. Everything was so neat that I couldn't even spot a single mess.


My eyebrows slightly furrowed as I stared at the sign in front that's on the table.



I picked it up and caressed the perfectly carved letters on it.



'Asmodeus Hadron Vandeleur'
