Alessia’s POV
Two new faces greeted me at the dining table the next day when we were all having breakfast.
Try as I may, I couldn’t shake off the tension in the air. Everyone was stiff and call me delusional,
but I

think it may have been caused by the presence of these new guests. Who
they?
No one is saying anything so there’s no way of knowing. That’s why I find a way to corner Jake
behind the pack house and try to dig my ws into the poor chum.
“Who are they?” I whisper, keeping my voice low to prevent anyone from cavesdropping. Nearly
everyone should be at the training ground but you can never be too careful. “Tell me!” I bite out
when he remain
silent.
He sighs, looking tentatively around us before turning his focus back to me. “They’re thete Luna’s
family; her father and sister,” he whispers back, still looking around us every once in a while. “They
haven’t been here in ages.”
“So why are they here now?” I’m not even aware I voiced out my thoughts until Jake answers.
“I don’t know.” He shrugs, his face a perfect description of the expression- how am I supposed to
know
that?
I roll my eyes, leaning on the wall beside me. This could be a very serious issue. Why are they here
and how can’t possibly get my hands on this information?
“Just leave it alone, Alessia,” Jake says, giving me a warning look with his eyes narrow.
I widen my eyes innocently. “I wasn’t going to do anything.” I make sure to add a bit of hurt in my
voice. Like, how could he ever think I’ll meddle in other people’s business?
He looks at me like he doesn’t quite believe my words but other than that suspicious look, he dropsContent protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.
the topic. “Let’s just head over to the training grounds. Caden will have my head if he finds out that
I’m the reason you’rete.” He shivers. “I definitely do not want another episode of thest time he
got his hands
on me.”
I roll my eyes. Again. The men I associate with are going to make me lose an eyeball one of these
days. “Just ignore him. He won’t try to do something of that sort again. At least, not in front of the
crowd that will be there.” A silver of doubt arises from my words. I’m a hundred percent sure that
Caden doesn’t give a dam n about the people watching him. He does whatever is on his mind and
I’m very sure that if he wants another chance to get his fist in Jake’s face then he’s going to
definitely be doing that.
Jake must be having the same thoughts as me because he doesn’t make anyments on what I
just said. “Let’s just get out of here.”
We power walk to the training grounds and walk in at separate times, with me lingering around the
woods. and walking in a solid ten minutes after Jake.

After getting my long dose of scolding from Caden, I start my workout. Caden takes it harder on me
today. but after an excruciating three hours, he allows me to call it a day.
By the time I get back to the pack house, the only energy I have left in me is used to drag myself
into the house. I basically crawl the rest of the distance into the kitchen and towards the fridge.
Ripping the door of the fridge open, I grab the very first thing my fingers touch which thankfully
happens to be a bottle of water. I down the cool liquid, sighing in pleasure when the first drop hit my
throat. To anyone around, I’ll probably look like I just spent thest few days locked up in a desert.
Another thing to be thankful about is that there’s no one around to witness this.
“What’s wrong with you?”
The wordse from behind me and I whip around, startled by the fact that I didn’t hear anyone
approaching. Did they tiptoe over here?
Standing in front of me is thest person I would expect. Ok, so maybe not thest, but also
definitely not the first. Maybe the first or sixth person I would expect but not the-
Why am I rambling to myself here? Probably because my mate’ste Luna’s sister is standing in
front of me. Wheeze, that’s super long title.
“Hey,” I greet, waving my hand awkwardly in the air and quickly dropping it back by my side when
she gives me a weird look. “And there’s nothing wrong with me,” I answer the first question that
started this whole weird interaction.
“I’ve been hearing some rumors about you.” Her eyes narrow. “Though, for some reason everyone
goes silent when I try to ask them about it.”
Oh, no. Not this again. I thought I was done with this cycle of questions.
She folds her arms across her and c o c k s her hip to the side. “So, I decided to find out for myself
from the main source.” She arches an eyebrow in question. “Who are you and what’s your
rtionship with Cade?”
I should have never core in here for some water. I will dly take a parched throat over… this.
Whatever this is.
“I’m his mate.” There’s no use beating about the bush. She’s going to find out about it one way or
another given how determined she’seems. I’m even surprised that Caden didn’t already tell them
about me.
She doesn’t bother masking her disbelief; her eyes widen in shock and her mouth barely keeps
from dropping open. It’s almostical. The re she gives me afterward is anything butical
though.
She looks like she’s trying to set me on fire from within and I shrink under her hateful gaze.
“How is that even possible?” Just an octave higher and she will be screeching.
I know it’s not exactly a question but I shrug in reply. That just growls… f u c ki n g growls at me.

I back into the open fridge as she inches closer to me, lowering her head so that it’s level with mine.
“Start the f u c k away from Caden. He’s mine.”
What the hell?!
