My mood was lifted instantly. I felt sorry for her because she tried to live her fantasies aloud.
We entered the dining room and went to sit on our chairs; Kara and Eloise looked at me funny.
“What were you on yesterday afternoon? You wanted to jump out the window, Zora. You made Alpha make a lot of promises before getting you out the window,” Kara linked me, and I looked at Darius.
“Did I make you promise me anything yesterday?” I asked, and he smiled
at me?
“You didn’t; your wolf did, and you don’t want to know. Let’s just leave it alone.” He told me and served my food: I shook my head.
“Please tell me,” I said, and Marcel laughed.
“You should tell her,” he told Darius, and Darius looked at me and
smiled.
“Are you sure you want to know what Monica said under the influence?” He asked, and I nodded.
“They called me that you were standing at the window of your room. We all rushed to your room and saw that you had trashed the place. There was also vomit everywhere. I saw the bottle of northern co ck tail, and I panicked because you had drunk more than the required amount.
When Monica saw me, she began to cry. She called me an a rse hole and scu mb ag; name it. She said I was a bully, and I was playing with both of

you. She asked me if there was a reason I did not find you fuckable. She used that word. She compared you to Cindy then she said both of you would be running away by jumping out the window.” He paused, and I was already ashamed. I tried to reach Monica, but she refused to respond.
“I pleaded with you not to jump, and she told me she won’t if I promise to do you all night long until morning and then some more, and the rest of the things she said were incoherent. I doubt she was even processing what I was telling her because the moment I reached her and took her away from the window, she passed out in my arms. You shouldn’t leave your wolf in charge like that again.

pretend.” He said, and I bowed in shame.
I suspected something was off about that drink. I knew something was wrong when I started feeling woozy and having experience. I was glad Darius came for me

out-of-body not just anyone.
Eventually, we made light of the situation, and we all laughed and joked about it.
Soon breakfast was over, and Darius asked me to join him for training. I dreaded going to that room after seeing the amount of silver that was in it, but I humoured him and followed.
I did not know how physically weak I had become until I trained with Darius.
I felt terrible about it, but he calmed me down. He told me not to worry about it, but it troubled my soul.
After the training, Darius and I showered together, and he said he had something planned out for us.
He led me to the eastern garden of the estate, and there, a small picnic was planned for us.
There were people in the garden, especially women from the ha rem, but

“Wow, Darius, this is amazing,” I said, thrilled by what I saw. It was a bit chilly outside, but I appreciated it.
We sat on the mat, and he bought out a thermos and poured hot chocolate into a mug for me. To my surprise, he poured tinny marshmallows on the top.
“How did you know?” I asked him, and he smiled.
“Let us just say someone gave me tips on how to woo you,” He said, and I knew who that was; for the first time, thinking of Casey did not make me sad; I smiled, grateful for his effort.
Darius moved closer to me and kissed me. I knew the ladies present could see us, and I grabbed onto his head and kissed him harder, showing ownership and staking my claim.
We broke the kiss, and he laughed.
“You want them to know,” He said, knowing what I did.
“You can’t blame me, Alpha,” I said, and he smiled.
We stayed there a bit, and I gathered the courage to ask him why he chose
me.
He looked at me and smiled, then lifted my hands and kissed them.
“It is our tradition in the north to split the lunas of the packs we conquered among the first three officials. In my father’s time, they would sleep with them, owning them completely to show they had conquered and dominated the alphas to whom the lunas are tied, but in my time, the three of us usually split them among ourselves and assigned duties to them. I do not think sleeping with a woman against her will just to prove I have conquered her husband is humane.” He said, and I was stunned by

the barbaric practice of the ones before him. He was different.
“Why didn’t you assign a duty to me?” I asked him, and he lovingly tucked my loose strands behind my car and looked into my eyes.
“I was smitten by you, Zora. I can’t explain, but you made my heart beat faster than usual, and I knew something was there. My wolf wanted you. and he staked his claim before I could process the feeling,” He said gently and leaned closer to kiss me.
His kiss was comforting and reassuring. I realised he was falling just as
fast as I was.
“You won’t be a rebound, Darius,” I linked him, and his kiss became more hungry
He travelled to my neck and sucked the sweet spot. I wanted him to sink his teeth in: he sucked hard and grazed his teeth on the spot, making me dizzy and turning me into a moaning mess.
Gradually he stopped and pulled away
“Soon,” he told me, and if we were alone at that moment, I wouldn’t have taken soon for an answer; I would have gone on a ride, and he knew it.
He laughed, showing his perfect dentition and pulled me close while we enjoyed the scenery together.
We stayed there until sunset, then returned to the house for dinner.
Besides the training session, it was the best day I had had in a long time. I hope Darius will complete the experience and make love to me. It was overdue. He knew I wanted him, and I knew he wanted me. There was no point holding back. The wooing was complete.
