CHAPTER 10
-CLARA-
I was used to it. Being teased and scorned was something that wasn’t new to me. Back at Liam’s
pack, the only one who had cared for me was Aunt Amelia, Liam and his father who had taken me
in and treated me like his daughter.
The rest of them saw me as trash and I learnt how to let it not bother me the hard way.
“Sit dear, the food will get cold” Damon’s ever so loving mother uttered with a kind smille and I
smiled back at her. Even though I had just
met his parents, they seemed nice so what happened to Damon?
The Alpha King was seated at the head of the table so Damon sat down next to him while I sat
down beside him.
“Next time you speak to my wife in that manner, you will be skinned alive and fed to the rogues. I do
not tolerate disrespect and won’t take it from the likes of you” Damon uttered as soon as he sat
down and I turned to him with wide eyes.
I hadn’t expected him to defend me, especially against a family member.
“She…”
“Apologize now” Damon uttered with so much authority that I sucked in my breath. I noticed
everyone at the table seemed to be afraid of him including his own parents.
The girl pursed her lips then let out a sigh before turning to me.
“I’m sorry” She muttered through clenched teeth and even though it was clear it wasn’t sincere, I
didn’t want to push the matter further so I just smiled.
Everyone was quiet for a while till Damon’s mother cleared her throat.
“How about the maids serve our food and in the meantime, we introduce ourselves?” His mother
uttered and everyone else nodded in
agreement except Damon and I.
I briefly nced at Damon and he had a bored look on his face. He looked like he’d rather be
anywhere else but here.
At that moment, I couldn’t help admiring his features. I know I had said it earlier but Damon was the
epitome of beauty and the Aura he exuded was Dangerous yet Sexy. After observing his parents,
I’d say he took over his mother’s features and his Father’s Aura.
Despite his father being the Alpha King, Damon’s Aura was fighting for Dominance against his and
if you’d ask me, I’d say Damon was
winning.
Damon suddenly turned to me and I abruptly turned away as my cheeks heated up with
embarrassment from being caught staring. He was going to think I was admiring him now! Well… I
was but still.
“So dear, I haven’t formally introduced myself, I’m Agnes and this hunk right here is my husband,
Raymond” Damon’s mother who I now know as Agnes, uttered and Damon let out a groan but said
nothing.
I learntter on that Alicia was the name of the mean girl earlier and she was Damon’s step cousin.
Apparently, Damon had a brother and sister but they were currently not around.

They were two aunts and three uncles at the table as well and they all greeted me warmly.
Damon’s Little cousins were also seated at the table and I couldn’t help but admire how cute they
were. The beauty in their genes was very strong because they all looked like Royalty. Despite
Alicia’s character, she looked like a goddess and by the way she kept staring at Damon, had a
feeling she had a thing for him which almost made me gag
Yes they were step cousins but still.
“I noticed earlier that you didn’t tell me yourst name. Why?” Alpha King Raymond suddenly asked
and everyone immediately went
silent
“I never knew my parents. My ex Alpha’s Father was kind enough to take me into his pack but I
never assumed theirst name” I murmured and Alicia scoffed but didn’t say anything
“Oh that sounds rough dear but now you have ast name because of my son” Agnes uttered and I
smiled slightly at her and was about
to pick up my spoon and eat because I was literally starving but then the Alpha King spoke again.
“So you never bothered to find out your origin?” He questioned and I frowned as I turned to him
then shook my head.
“I
I never thought it was necessary,” I murmured.
“How old were you when you were taken in by the crescent moon pack?” He questioned.
“At the age of Six” I murmured and he raised an eyebrow.
“And you don’t remember yourst name? Not even where you’re from?” He urged and a bile
suddenly began rising up my throat.

my answer.
I shook my head slightly but he seemed dissatisfied by my
“Surely, you…
“Drop it, old man. She doesn’t answer to you, she’s my wife” Damon suddenly uttered, turning
everyone’s attention to him and at that moment, I was grateful for him.
Luckily, the Alpha King stopped asking me questions and the dinner went on with a lot of chattering
and questions being thrown around.
“So tell me ra, how was your first interaction? What happened when you both found out you
were mates?” Agnes questioned and I turned to Damon who was staring down at his food with
disinterest.
I contemted telling them the real story just forughs but I suddenly got a better idea.
“Damon fell in love with me at first sight I murmured and everyone gasped while Damon turned to
me with a raised eyebrow but said nothing
“But he said he was going to reject you” The Alpha King uttered and I red at Damon. So he had
really wanted to reject me at first sight
“Ahhh…………. yes but that’s because he felt I was too good for him. He felt he couldn’t give me
the love I deserved but he just couldn’t stay away and here we are lon’t that right, hubby?” i
murmured then fluttered my eyshes innocently at Damon and an amused smile appeared on
his face.
“How I remember it is you falling to your knees and begging me not to reject you” He murmured and
my eyes widened.

“You…

*ra really needs to rest. As you can see, she’s starting to daydream and might be losing her
mind so you all should leave so we can go to bed” Damon uttered as he pushed his chair
backwards then stood up.
“I know why you’re so eager to get rid of us, Damon. Don’t worry, we’ll get out of your hair” One of
Damon’s uncle’s finally uttered then
winked at both of us and that’s when I noticed the light pink tint on Agnes‘ cheeks.
“Oh don’t tease them. It’s their wedding night after all. They need to start nning for an heir. Isn’t
that right honey?” Agnes uttered and I gasped before turning to Damon with wide eyes and his
expression mirrored mine.
nning for an heir?!…
