Nothing But A Body

Evelyn sighed as she closed the book. "Finally, I can read without stuttering, " The girl said with a small smile.


Scarlett chuckled. "I told you, you'll be able to do it in a week, " She said, putting the book back on the shelf. "How's your training with Josh?"


Evelyn sat up straight as the former luna mentioned training. "I learned how to throw knives on moving things," The omega smiled. "Also, Josh said I'm improving on self-defense. Yesterday, I knocked him down while practicing," The girl beamed.


"That's great," Scarlett couldn't help but smile at the excited omega. "Keiran still doesn't know, right? "


Evelyn's smile faltered. "N-No, he doesn't, " Even the thought of the alpha finding out about it made a shiver run down her spine.


"Good, Keiran is really short-tempered. I don't know what he'll do if he comes to know about this, " Scarlett heaved a sigh of relief.


"Luna? Is anyone here? "


Both of them turned to the door when a soft voice came from there.


"Rain? " Evelyn asked, walking towards the door.


Rain suddenly peeked in with a smile. "Hi," The boy smiled, his eyes disappearing as he did so.


"Where were you all this time?" Evelyn smiled as she ruffled the boy's soft blonde locks.


"He's busy making a perfect gift for his mate, " Scarlett chuckled, causing Evelyn to turn around. The omega stared at the former Luna, visibly confused. Rain looked down with a shy smile.


"What are you saying? Mate? When did he find—"



"He didn't find his mate but his birthday is in the first week of next month so he's in the process of making a perfect gift for them, " Scarlett cut off the omega as she explained.



"Really? Well, what are you making? " Evelyn turned to Rain who smiled, blushing red.




"Matching bracelets! And It's handmade by me! I picked up some pearls and jade stones," He excitedly showed them to the omega.


"Hmm… they're nephrite jade stones," Scarlett said as she examined the stones in the omega's hand.


"They're beautiful, aren't they?" Rain looked at her expectantly.


"Of course, they are... " Scarlett smiled. "But not as beautiful as our little rain," She ruffled his hair, causing him to giggle. "You're going to be the perfect gift for your mate,"


Rain smiled shyly before he put the stones and pearls in a small pouch on his waist.


Evelyn's smile faltered. "Rain, what happened to your hand? " She asked, taking the boy's hand in hers.


"Huh? Oh, that… I accidentally hurt myself when I was trying to open an oyster shell," He smiled sheepishly.


"You idiot, you have to take care of yourself," Evelyn flicked his forehead. "It's cold weather, wounds will get easily infected if you don't take care of it properly, " She dragged the boy to the door. "I'll be back in a few minutes after I take him to Amelia," The omega said to Scarlett before she walked out with the boy.


"Luna, it's okay. You don't have to take—"


"Shut up and follow me,"


Scarlett smiled as she heard the two omegas bickering while they walked away. Evelyn and Rain are two people she saw in her life that have the purest soul in the world.

And they're also the two people who endured the worst from their childhood.


She just hoped that they would spend the rest of their lives happily.

Evelyn sighed as she sipped the herbal tea. It was a Japanese medicine to soothe an aching body. Amelia gave it to the omega since Evelyn was always in pain from the training sessions.




The omega took off the towel on her head and threw it on a chair. Ever since the bathroom incident, Evelyn was always careful to come back early. She didn't want to bump into the alpha like that again.


A shiver ran down her spine as she recalled the incident. It was the first time Evelyn saw that expression on her mate's face. Keiran totally changed into another person in front of her.


The girl heaved a sigh. She was glad that it didn't happen again. There was no guarantee that both of them could control themselves if they're in that position again. And even the thought of something like that made the omega turn pale as a ghost.


Evelyn turned around when the alpha's cinnamon scent filled the room. Keiran came to the room, panting heavily. The tank top he was wearing stuck to his body like a second skin.



The alpha took off the piece of cloth in a swift movement, exposing his well-built body glistening with sweat. Evelyn flushed red as she saw the view.


He took the water bottle that was on the nightstand and drank in one go, causing some of it to spill, and stream down his jaw to his hard chest.


'Looks like he's been training today' Evelyn thought while she silently watched the alpha.


Keiran tossed the empty water bottle on the bed before he walked towards the walk-in closet. He quickly took a pair of sweatpants before coming out. "What the heck are you staring at?" The alpha suddenly snapped, causing Evelyn to flinch.


The omega gulped when she realized that the alpha had noticed her staring at him. Evelyn looked down nervously fiddling with her fingers. "Umm… I-I just wanted to know how your w-wound is…." She stuttered out quietly.



"That's none of your business, omega," Keiran scoffed as he walked towards her.



Evelyn instinctively stepped back when the alpha came closer to her. She gasped out loud when he harshly gripped her hair, making her look up at him.



The omega's vision blurred as she stared at her mate's expressionless face. "Look, just because I touched you, don't go around thinking I like you, okay?" Keiran scoffed. " That was the heat of the moment and nothing more. Remember what I said before?" He quirked a brow at her. "You have nothing useful to me other than your body,"



Keiran huffed and pushed away the omega before walking towards the bathroom.



Evelyn couldn't say anything but look down with a sad smile. No matter how much she wanted to stand up for herself, Keiran's words always sucked out all her energy.



She understands the alpha's hate towards her. Someone like Keiran deserves an equally strong mate by his side. He has the responsibility to protect one of the biggest and powerful Packs in the world and the omega feels like she is nothing but a bother to him.



Evelyn softly caressed her wedding ring. The girl wondered if she could ever become a luna who could protect this Pack…..
