The Wolf Who Saved Me

Adriana was humming while cooking. She was happy that today everybody would just chill and relax because there was no evening run. And it was not only her but almost the entire pack who were delighted.

Logan was one of the five males that were assigned to check the pack’s territory before the evening run started. He was the one who led them. And after they went for their rounds, he came to the kitchen looking for Reule.

“Anyone knows where Alpha Reule is?” Logan asked.

“Logan, he went to prepare himself. He would be leaving for an appointment, remember? Have a seat in the living room. Rolito would be there shortly,” Nana Lolita said.

However, before Logan could even turn to leave, Reule suddenly appeared in the kitchen. He was wearing a plain navy blue Polo t-shirt paired with some black jeans. And he completed his look by wearing a white baseball cap. Simple, right? But he was so handsome with a strong sex appeal, especially that his muscles were looking sexy.

Reule caught me looking at him, and he slightly smiled. I looked away, feeling embarrassed. Nana Lolita had somehow saved me when she said, “Rolito, you looked; what do young people say these days? Ah.. hot!”

We all laughed, even Reule did, and he said, “Nana, you are watching a lot of TV series these days, aren’t you?”

“Why? Did I say it wrong?”

“No, Nana. Alpha Reule here was just trying to be humble,” Adriana said with a smile, and then she added, “You look good, Reule. Don’t let Lila see you. She might stalk you until you reach your destination.”

But Lila suddenly appeared with Landon. She was wearing an above-the-knee spaghetti strap red dress. She smiled at Reule in a flirty way. Reule raised his eyebrows and said, “Are you going somewhere, Lila?”

“Yes. I am going with you to your pack meeting,” Lila replied with a beautiful smile.

Lila looked like a sex goddess wanting to seduce a devil. It was what I could picture in my head, and I tried to shake it off. I imagined something nasty and ugly. What can I do? This girl keeps showing the whole world that she is somewhat like a temptress.

“Who said that you are coming? I have told you several times that it’s your twin that I needed to accompany me. I would be talking about something serious there. I don’t want to appear as an alpha who brought a prostitute.”

“Alpha Reule, you are so harsh! Do I really look like a prostitute?”

Everyone was quiet. It was only Landon who said something.

“I told you, Lila. You cannot go with us. Why are you being such a brat today?”

“What are you going to do there, Alpha Reule, that I am not allowed to come? Wouldn’t it be nice to have a beautiful muse with you? It would set the atmosphere there,” Lila said softly with a smile.

“You would only cause a disaster there. Control your twin, Landon. I don’t want her to come. I don’t have time to listen to her stupid reasons right now. I need to talk to Logan, and please don’t get us late with this appointment because of her,” Reule instructed and walked outside with Logan.

“Alpha Reule! Alpha Reule!” Lila tried to call him, hoping to change his mind.

“Stop it, Lila! Can you act like an adult and stop being so childish? We will visit another pack’s territory not to play or flirt with some ladies. It’s a serious business, so can you stop?” Landon said in an angry tone.

“Lila, you are not a toddler anymore where you can just throw tantrums to get what you want. Listen to your brother. And when your alpha tells you that you cannot go, you cannot go. You have to respect his decision. He is not your husband that you need to keep following,” Nana Lolita said firmly.

I was surprised because I had never seen or heard Nana Lolita talk like that. She really sounded like a mother correcting her child. And everyone around agrees with her and respects her. Nana Lolita appeared like the mother of this pack.

Lila got pissed and wanted to go to Alpha Reule. Landon grabbed her hand before she could take a step towards Alpha Reule.

“Where do you think you are going?” Landon asked.

“Nobody cares about me here. I will go to Alpha Reule and try to reason with him. Landon, I will not be bothersome to him. Why can’t you all see that?” Lila said, annoyed with all of the people in the kitchen.

“You would be bothersome, Lila. You are already bothering Alpha Reule with your childish attitude. Stay here and have fun, why won’t you do that?”

“Nobody really likes me here.”

“If you changed how you are, I am sure you would be having friends, Lila. Start thinking about that.”

Reule went back and said, “Landon, are you ready? Let’s go.”

“Alpha Reule, is it really not possible for me to go with you?” Lila plead.

“Lila, I don’t want to keep repeating myself, and I don’t have time anymore. I need to go, so I don’t embarrass myself for being late. Now, you stay here and behave. There will be a party here later tonight. Why won’t you just enjoy it and have fun?”

Reule glanced at me before he nodded to Landon then the both of them left. Lila shot an angry look at me. She did not appreciate Reule giving me such a look before leaving.

“I wanted to go so that women would stay away from Alpha Reule. I don’t want them to think that he has not found his mate and is still available,” Lila complained.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Adriana could not help but laugh at her.

“What is so funny, Adriana?” Lila asked, looking like she was about to burst with anger.

“Lila, stop dreaming that Alpha Reule would take you to show off with the other packs. You are not his mate, so why would he do that? It’s been a long time that you have been fantasizing Alpha Reule. It’s time for you to accept that you two are not meant for each other. Trust me. It will make your life easier,” Adriana replied.

“Nana Lolita, can you please control your daughter’s mouth,” Lila ordered and walked away.

But everybody just laughed.
