Chapter 12
I woke up with my eyes feeling heavy, I couldn't sleep properly last night despite feeling heavily tired.
I stood up from my bed, heading for the door with the intention of drinking a cup of tea to at least wake me up.
I walked downstairs, letting out a yawn. I was pretty sure that I look like a mess right now but I was too lazy to care about things like that right now.
As I got to the bottom of the stairs, one of the maids was at the front door answering to whoever it was that was there. I walked past to the kitchen side, only for her to call me which made let out an inaudible groan.
"Ms. Alexa. Here, this came from Dark Night Pack, they said that they are inviting you and Alpha Kurt for the annual meeting that occurs between both packs."
Ah, I have heard them talk about this before especially from Chloe Faracdo she always anticipated attending that meeting, believing a delusion that she would end up with Kurt or something.
"Oh ok, but where is Kurt?"
"He is currently with his father right now."
"Ok then, I would most definitely give it to him when he comes back."
****
Kurt came back hours later, and I handed him the invitation and he took it from my hands.
"What is this?" He asked looking at the invitation card.
"It's an invitation for the annual meeting between both the Dark Night pack that usually happens annually."
"They must have brought this invitation due to me finally getting a Luna, two years ago and last year there wasn't any form of invitation from them."
"So are you going?"
"Of course I would go. It's pivotal for every alpha of the NightFall pack to attend this meeting as things of importance would be discussed amongst ourselves, like how to strengthen and support each other."
I just nodded my head in agreement to what he was saying.
He tore open the envelop which was a major waste cause the invitation was very pretty. His eyes skimmed through the contents of what was written on the paper. After reading everything he folded the paper into two, he cleared the back of his throat.
"We would be away from the pack for a week. Our stay would be paid for at a five star hotel."
"That's very interesting now isn't it." I commented, it would be a very good thing that I am going to leave this place for a week at least a change of scenery. then a thought occured in my head.
"Wait, if you are going to be gone for a week. Who would be running this place while you are gone?"
"That's not a problem, my dad is here also with the elder wolf. Anyways you need to start packing up your things for the trip."
"Where is the meeting taking place?"
"Some few towns away."
Then there was silence, I found it weird that me and Kurt could hold a proper conversation without hurtling insults at each other.
I turn to leave thinking that the conversation was over at least.
"Wait, where you going too?" He asked, which caused me to look at him.
"Isn't the conversation over at least?"
"No, I still have something to talk to you about." He motioned for me to sit at the dinner table. I dragged my feet and reach the table, sitting next to Kurt.
"My father was saying some things about us getting to bound together." He began. "And he said that the one way we can get to bound together is by me putting a mark on you. According to him at least."
"But, aren't we like suppose to be a bit more closer to each other before we start marking each other."
"Well that's what he said. Even I don't want to do it."
"Can I ask a question?"
"Sure."
"Why are you asking your father about advice on things concerning your relationship."
"I didn't ask him, he called me that he wanted to talk to me. Give me some fatherly advice that's when he brought up the topic of relationships he asked me how is our relationship going and I said that it's heading a very steep direction."
"And who's fault is that? Cause it's sure not mine."
He rolled his eyes at me. "Can you just stop."
"No, you were the one that claimed that I am a slave. A weakling, that I shouldn't even be in this house with you."
"I never said that you should never be in this house with me."
"But you did think about it at least once. I am sure that you wished that it was Rachel that the Moon goddess picked, not a loser like me." I felt tears pricked at my eyes.
Kurt was quiet, he didn't even say a single word to me, and I just stood up and walk away from, heading to my room.
This room has been my solace since I came to this mansion. I absolutely despise Kurt so much. The Moon goddess messed me up with this one.

I stood next to the car, the driver placed my luggage inside the trunk of the car. Yes a car, your royal highness just happened to get a car right on time for this whole meeting thing.
Since that day we fought I haven't spoken to him, we were both giving each other the silent treatment and we weren't planning on backing down.
I saw it as some type of game, whoever speak to each other loses.
Kurt was wearing a white t-shirt and grey sweatpants along with a pair of sunglasses he looked very hot that I almost wanted to speak to him. But I refused to do so, my pride is as large as a mountain.
The driver said that he was done packing our luggages into the car, I got in before Kurt could.
The driver got into the driver's seat, started up the car, and I decided that my attention would be on the car window.
It was going to be one long week.
