Mate by Fate, Bound by Love

Claire’s pov

I ran with every atom of strength that was found in me, I knew that I had narrowly escaped death as I pondered on how grave the situation is, there was a premonition that it was not Adrian who was there but I did not care to know.

Death was smiling at me with open arms wide and it’s only the moon goddess that knew how I was able to come back to reality, if I had not come back in the nick of time, I would have been someone’s lunch.

I needed to get rid of the child in Lena’s stomach and I needed to do it fast. I dialled a number and was about to place it on my ears when the sound of an arrow interrupted me.

I looked into the direction of the arrow as I cursed my luck, why do I have to be this unlucky, I had run away from him in the throne room and he followed me here. “What does he want from me?” I pondered

His eyes were still red as he headed towards my direction, I looked and I saw that I was the only one at the moment, only the moon goddess knows how I want to strangle those “maids” of mine.

“You’re such a daring wolf you know, the ones who I later end up killing are the daring ones, if you had a brain think about the consequences of the action you will want to display before attempting it”

His eyes had already started returning back to it’s usual colours, I was shocked and amazed at what was going on

“Do not think that the moon goddess would save you from my hands this time, the next time, you’re relaying an information, if you don’t want to do it in peace, there are other means but it would have been a better journey that you had never met me”

He said. I began to feel goosebumps all over my body and that instant I knew that it was not mere words that was going spoken put of his mouth, I was cautious of whatever I was saying.

Not that it was because I was afraid of him, it’s just that I did not want to know that I had died without knowing the incident that led to my death.

He left where I was and I was there for some seconds, it’s just that my whole body was vibrating, I never knew that I was going to encounter Adrian this way.

It got me pondering if the relationship between us would not work out, from all angles, it looked like we are back to where we started where I had to be cautious of every movement that I made.

Sweat began to drop out of my forehead, I took in a deep breath as a sigh escaped my lips, I was beginning to think I was cursed because the trap that I had almost fall into these few days, only the moon goddess knows how scared I was.

I went into my chambers and sat of the bed contemplating deeply, I knew that the source of my troubles started when I had began to plan Lena’s downfall.

“Was she blessed by the gods?” The question keeps ringing in my heart.

I shook my head as I had my resolve, I was going to destroy Lena and there’s nothing anyone can do. A part of me wanted to check up on Adrian and know how he was faring, another part of me was afraid of the earlier encounter.

The maids came in to my chambers and I scoffed, they’re not always around during crucial times of my life but are around during the peaceful time of my life.

It got me pondering if they were part of a bigger plot, I knew that many are waiting for my downfall but it had not crossed my memory that my life could be used as a bait by mere lowlifes.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

I was feeling irritated and disgusted by their presence, I did not want to sound rude before my tale was spread abroad that the “Luna” is rude. I spoke in the most polite way I could think of.

“Leave my room” I said

They bowed their heads as they all left the room, I scattered my head all over my face as I was perplexed on the current situation. I dialled a number on the phone and the phone connected.

“I need a clean job” I said to the other end of the phone.

“On it boss” the voice replied.

I smirked as I was anticipating the downfall of Lena, call me a wicked, self centered being who thinks of herself without being considerate to other people’s feelings, I don’t bloody care.

It’s not possible that she would be sharing what was mine in the first place, it would have been better if she was wallowing her life in her former pack.

I left the chambers as I met Adrian coming out with no guards, he was the only one as he was on the phone apparently talking to a wolf about trivial matters.

An ominous feeling crept up my heart, I knew that whatever that is coming after this was bad news. He was coming towards my direction as I moved backwards till I got to my chambers.

I could not be bothered about the expression on his face as I entered the chambers and locked the door panting heavily.

The thought that Lena would be loosing that child of hers caused a blissful expression to be on my face, I am suffering as I had to lock up myself because I was meticulously planning her case.

I felt it was a backlash “of what exactly?” I pondered on this case. I looked through the door and realized that he had gone, I came out of the room as my eyes tilted left and right.

I happily moved to the library when I realized that his presence was no longer felt.
