Alexandra pulled a cup and poured coffee, sliding it toward me before filling my empty plate with food. She added a bit of everything: bread, cheese, bacon,
and sweet cake.
T
you’re hungry,” she whispered, smiling. “Heat is a pain. We never know if we want to
If we want to fuck or eat.
1 choked on a laugh and brought a piece of bread to my lips, suppressing a sigh of satisfaction.
“Are you an omega??
ega?” I asked, trying to eat decently and tailing miserably. I was so hungry I was swallowing the food whole.
She watched me, paying attention.
“Just like you,” she agreed, sipping a gulp of coffee.
I furrowed my brows.
And your girlfriend?”
In my old pack, it was strictly forbidden for people of the same sex and/or gender to be in relationships, because they couldn’t procreate. Although I thought it was absurd, I couldn’t say anything. I was expressly forbidden from going against the alpha’s opinion.
“She’s a beta”
“And how does that work?” I inquired, interested
She shrugged.
“Well… it’s eary, since she’s a beta, she doesn’t go into heat and can’t get pregnant. Since I suppress my heat, I also have no interest in procreating.”
I let out a sigh as I felt the soft, sweet cake slide down my throat.
“Does the live here too?”
“She’s responsible for teaching the pups,”
My eyes widened.
“There’s a school here?”
She blinked, a bit confused.
“Yes… didn’t your old pack have one?”
I shook my head
No, we didn’t have one. I, like all the other pups in the pack, was homeschooled.”
Not even if I begged, my father would let me study outside. He didn’t trust me, nor the males who might approach. And since I didn’t want problems with Caspian, concerning my virginity and dignity to become his son’s wife, he kept me locked up at home. This way, he avoided conflicts and stayed at peace.
“There are other picks here that operate the same way.”
This piqued my curiosity. Selena and I traveled to Romania for information about the heat herb, but we didn’t find anything. So, imagine my surprise when I discovered there wasn’t just one pack in the region, but several others.
“How many packs are in the region?”
“Five.” I gasped in shock. At my surprise, she continued, “Did your old region have fewer than that?”
She made it seem like a casual question, but I could hear the interest in her voice. I was a stranger in their territory, mated to the alpha and… a burden they would need to carry.
ny of them.
I liked Alexandra, she had been charismatic with me since I arrived, but… I didn’t trust her. I didn’t trust any
“Only two,” I answered truthfully, not going into detail.

If they knew who I was, they’d know about Hunter. And if Fentir decided to send me back to him?
I had no idea what the bastard’s plans were for me, but I was sure he’d promise to keep me alive if it meant having his claws on me again.
On the other hand, if that happened, I’d kill myself. That way, I’d rid myself of Hunter and get my revenge on Fenrir at the same time.
“Do all the packs stay in this forest? I asked, sounding uninterested.
She smiled, noticing my true intention.
“Yes, all of them. And there’s a leader for each one.” She set the coffee cup down on the table. There’s the Vandia pack, belonging to Alpha Jax. The Constantini pack, belonging to Alpha Riuk. The Lazar pack, belonging to Alpha Lucian. And the Mihai park, belonging to Alpha Konrad.”
[ Eli mẹ lập.
I felt the heat intensifying again in my chest. And I wondered how long the heat would last before finally leaving me in peace. Alexandra said she’d get the herbs for me, but I wouldn’t take them, I would face this period. I’d keep the herbs for my escape; they would be an important ally. Without the heat, it would be harder for them to find me. And running away not from one, but two alphas, things would get much worse for me.
‘And… um… which pack do the heat herbs belong to?” I asked, giving in to my curiosity.
She laughed and shook her head, clicking her tongue.
“You’re too interested for someone who says they don’t care.”
His voice echoed through the room. I jumped out of my chair, turning toward the sound. Fenrir was leaning against the door, watching me with an arched eyebrow and arms crossed.
“Don’t you think that’s strange,
יננו
woll?
“I don’t care about your opinion, I hissed.
Did he think I was more dignified now that he was looking at me for the first time since we woke up? Idiot!
He laughed, pushing himself off the door and walking toward me. I turned my gaze to the table, ignoring the damn flips in my stomach. He threw a packet in front of me.
“Here are the herbs you seem so interested in. The heat inhibitor. Take it now, before your problem becomes, once again, my problem.”
I breathed deeply and swallowed a large gulp of coffee, ignoring him for a moment. I tilted my head slightly to the side and stared at him, smiling with disdain.
“Since it bothers you so much, send some of your males to fuck me, that way the problem will be solved without you needing to get involved, I murmured, sliding the words over my tongue with intense satisfaction
He growled, lifting his lips to show his fangs.
“Don’t irritate me, little wolf,” he whispered, leaning over me, pressing one hand on the table and the other on
on the back of my chair. “You don’t know how terrible I can be when I’m pissed.”
“Even more terrible?” I asked, blinking slowly.
Alexandra choked on her coffee, setting the cup in front of her lips to hide a mocking smile.
“Much worse,” he agreed, his eyes sparkling with irritation.
I pushed the chair Back, distancing him and stood up, grabbing the packet with the herb pills. I wouldn’t take them, but I’d keep them as if they were my most precious possession. In a month, my heat would return, and I hoped I would be far away from him when that happened.
I wasn’t sure what I should do. Go back to the room and lock myself in, trying to figure out a way to escape, or try wandering around, if Fenrir would even
allow that
“Shall we go for a walk?” Alexandra asked.
1 locked a sigh of relief, pleased with the invitation. It would be much easier, and my intentions less obvious, if it were like this.
“I’d love to.”
