Chapter 17: Chapter 17

Ashley almost lost in her jealousy, raised up her head haughtily and met those ferocious that were glaring on her. Before she could retort back stubbornly, she stole a glimpse of Damien who was heading on their way upon hearing Viona's loud voice.

Ashley quickly slipped into her acting, making sure that she looked like a girl being bullied by a ruthless Luna. She started sobbing harder, curled her body like a ball and mumbled incoherently,

" Damien...I am hurt..."

Damien reached beside Viona who was still fuming in rage after being see through Ashley's intentions. No wonder that she felt uneasy when Ashley stared at her. This damn girl had ill intentions of defaming her status on the first day of her arrival in Blood Moon Pack. Unfortunately she forgot that Viona had the blood of an Alpha who born with ruthlessness and vengeance running through her veins. She was someone who born to rule others.

Damien took a glance of Ashley's fallen state and turned her face sideway to inquire Viona coldly,

" What happened here exactly?"

Cassie shivered lightly standing beside Viona and felt utterly guilty. She didn't expect that Viona would take action so fast to save a mere omega like her. Upon hearing Damien's icy tongue, Cassie only prayed that they wouldn't pick up a fight regarding this childish matter.

Viona's eyes shot up to meet Damien whose eyes held a little suspension towards her. Viona didn't restrain herself anymore. Her lips hooked upwards dangerously as she replied nonchalantly,

" Nothing serious! Your pack members just need to get used of my presence from now on. I don't come from an average omega or gamma family who will endure their misbehavior."

Everyone was stunned before looking up at Damien. Perhaps it was the first time in the history where they watched Damien to get lectured in that way. Surprisingly Damien didn't show any wrath on his face instead averted his eyes down on Ashley who secretly waited to get pulled up by Damien.

As a wise and cunning Alpha, Damien could already predict that what did Viona mean exactly. His cold eyes flared up lightly before emphasizing each words threateningly,

" Ashley, don't forget that she is your sister-in-law and the new Luna of our pack. Pay attention to your behaviors from now on."

Ashley's face fell as she didn't expect Damien to get on Viona's side easily. They had only known each others few days back. How can he trust Viona than her?

This thought infuriated Ashley who had to bite down her lips so hardly in rage that it would bleed anytime soon. Ashley faked an apologizotical smile and mumbled something lowly,

" It ...it was just..an accident..I don't hold any grudges against Luna..You are over thinking Damien.."

Viona smirked hooking her arms tightly around the frightened Cassie,

" It is better be an accident. After all, we are family now. I don't wish to hold any grudges against you too."

Ashley could assign the hidden threat behind Viona's tongue. To begin with, she thought that Viona would turn out likely those weak werewolves who tolerated her bullying silently. Her intentions were trampled completely.

But still she had another trick in her sleeves. Stumbling on her palms and knees, Ashley put on a fake sobbing and extended her arms widely towards Damien,

" Damien..I.. happen to break my ankle..It's painful..Can you please help me getting up? "

Damien hesitated for a while then bent down and lifted her up in his arms swiftly. Turning his face sideway, he ordered Cassie coldly before dissaparing out behind the stairs gloomily,

" Take your Luna get back to her room. She needs rest."

Behind him, Viona stood calmly and didn't show any reaction on her face. Her wolf snarled in unhappiness after watching their intertwined arms and growled back inside beastly.

Cassie seemed to notice a little unusualness behind Viona's expression. She quickly explained,

" Luna, don't get wrong ideas. It's just.. Ashley saved him once from danger. So he prioritizes them closely. He really doesn't look...."

Viona interrupted shooting her a comfy glance,

" It's all right, Cassie. I am not having any ideas. Ashley is his family after all."

When Viona didn't pay attention on them anymore, Ashley smiled at her provokingly.

Did you think that you can replace me so easily when I have spent more than twenty years by his side?

Cassie smiled in relief and compelled Damien's order. She led Viona upstairs slowly and pulled her inside an exaggerating room. Stepping in, Viona was a little mesmerised after watching the interior design. The walls were designed with multiple latest designed tilles and other eye-catching materials. An open corridor was stationed in front of the jungle trees nearby. Each furnitures were unique and probably had changed recently as they had no scratches on them.

Viona shook off the idea of her amusement. Since he was a king, he had obliviously more assets than any other average Alpha.

Cassie neated the bedsheets one more time and helped Viona sitting on the tool in front of a mirror. She offered eagerly trying to be gentle as much as possible,

" Luna, help me pulling off your gown. It must be hard on you to carry this for so long."

Viona couldn't become less agreed with her. This tight fitting gown had given her quite hard time during the whole meetings. As she wasn't very accustomed with other helping her changing clothes, Viona denied politely,

" I can handle on my own, Cas. It's quite late. You should go back to sleep. I will call you over here if I need anything."

Cassie smiled gleefully after hearing out her nickname from Viona's tongue. She loved it from the core of her heart. Afraid to irritate her anymore, Cassie walked out of the room and left the door half-opened for Damien.

Viona studied her image through the mirror blankly and started to remove her hairpin and soon after all the lavishing ornaments that she put on earlier. Upon reaching for the zipper on her back, the door was pushed open slightly and Damien walked in.

Too immersed in her own thoughts, she failed to notice the man heading inside slowly. Damien stopped himself a few steps away from her, admired the most sexy back that he ever found in a woman. With his lips curling up mischievously, he commented almost dying in desire,

" I didn't expect you to become so dominant on the first day in my pack. You sure know how to surprise me."

Viona gasped leaving her half opened back and turned around to face Damien. She sutured astonishingly,

" When..when did you enter in? Why didn't I hear that?"

Damien almost laughed at the way of Viona's horrified expression. He replied indifferently while gazing at her curves,

" Well, it might because you were too engrossed with your thoughts."

Viona pursued her lips and said coldly,

" How much do you know about me? Nothing absolutely. You just claimed your mate just as the way other Alphas do. You don't even know whom I carry on in my heart and soul."

Viona blurted out invoulantarily and sensed the temperature dropping around her drastically. Before she could correct her words, Damien charged forward in a rush.

Viona forgot to back off and quickly faced her back pressing against the hardness of wall. Damien held one side of her collarbone hardly and spoke with an icy voice,

" So brave! Huh, I must say! "

Viona sucked a deep breath uneasily and heard his cold words,

" Don't ever try to challenge an Alpha's patience, little girl. Just because I am tolerating your each terms, that doesn't mean that I will endure every single tantrums. Unless we break off this bond, you are mine for eternity."

Viona hated his confidence and growled from his grip,

" But we will eventually break off after one year.."

" Ssshh! ", Damien hussed putting a finger on her delicate lips. His eyes pierced through her soul deeply as he warned dangerously,

" Don't speak something which we aren't sure off. We never know what lays in our future. Better speak cautiously."

Viona glanced up at him coldly and saw a beautiful smirk forming in his lips. He couldn't help but tapped on her slightly quivering lips hardly to feel the softness. It felt so warm and delicate as if one hard touch on that would cause bleeding.

Viona's wolf wailed in contentment upon being touched so intimately. Viona groaned at her wolf for being so sluggish and fought to stay calm.

Finding her so obedient, Damien suddenly pressed his command hard,

" Turn around! "

Viona barked going blank headed,

" WHATTT! "

Damien revealed his intentions without holding back,

" Turn around! I will help you pulling off your gown."

Viona's face almost bleeded at his words and insisted clutching the upper clothes of her body,

" I am capable enough to that. Just get out for a while."

Damien's face paled as his wolf growled in discontentment. He craved to feel the smoothness of her body badly. Being pissed off by his wolf's demand, Damien had to choose another way to turn her obedient,

" Either you let me pull it off obediently or I will tore it open brutally. Choice is yours."

Viona felt a gush of rage arousing from her body. Considering the fact that she was in his territory right now and could do whatever he wanted, Viona dismisses the idea of fighting terriblely.

Drawing a deep breath, she tiptoed one step forward, turned her back on him and stood on her bare feet numbly.

She just should have known that! All the Alphas are same! Why just she didn't run away?

Viona kept holding her breathing inside her stomach. He used the tip of his fingers to brush off her skin teasingly. Viona's figure shook lightly circling strange sensation inside her stomach and had to keep her fists clenched hardly.

Why the damn was her body reacting too much?

Damien slidded off her gown one side gently and heard her taking a sharp breath shakingly. Damien commented nonchalantly,

" So Sensual! "

Viona protested almost turning insane in the thought that he would now watch her stripping naked pervertedly,

" It's... it's because of you..You are just seizing opportunities to get closer with me."

Damien's hand paused lightly and the next moment, she felt his hot breathing beside her ears. Damien whispered while tugging off the other portion of her gown roughly,

" What can I do when you are giving me no choice but to be tricky with you."

As his words fell out, the lavishing gown was completely taken off from her body making her way towards the cold floor.
