Mate by Fate, Bound by Love

************************************

Claire’s pov

It’s me again, do not think I have given up on destroying Lena, I am still going to accomplish the mission. Who does she think she is?? That she could come from only the moon goddess knows where and snatched what’s rightfully mine.

I looked at the information that was gathered concerning Lena and I smiled. Although I am a very lazy type especially when it comes to digging out information, I could be very patient.

I knew that what I held in my hands had the ability to bring her from the queen position in which she enjoyed, to the place of a commoner. I was so happy by this, I have been neglected for so long.

I had to collude with the personal maid of Lena in order to teach Lena a little lesson, that way she will know her place in this palace.

Though she’s the Alpha’s favourite, I have more authority in the palace as a result of my position and my father’s position.

I stepped out of the chambers and was going to the library. Well.. not to confuse you tho, I am not going to the library to read, I was going to the library in order to formulate some wicked plans.

I noticed Adrian coming towards my direction, I was happy that he was walking towards me, I arranged myself and tidied my hair, I was about to give him a hug when his eyes suddenly shone golden.

“Oh!! No, he’s using the Alpha Authority on me” I thought to myself.

He placed his hands on his neck and I did the same, I tried to remove my hand from my neck all to no avail, I was already at death’s door yet Adrian was not bulging.

His personal guards could not do anything as they let him have his way, I started having regrets on what I had earlier done. I closed my eyes waiting for the cold hands of death when his eyes turned back to normal.

I fell down and I was coughing badly, he crouched down to my level and said.

“The next time, you try to hurt my mate, you will not live to tell the story of how the journey was”.

Hearing his voice, I shivered. His voice was so cold and menacing. He was already moving out of the chambers before he turned around and added

“Lest you forget, I don’t give out empty threats”. He left the chambers after saying the words.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

A chill ran up my body, I looked at myself in the mirror and I found out that there were lines at the front part of my neck, I was getting more angry. I should be the one who’s protected by Adrian and not that gold digger.

My personal maid brought a towel as she used it to massage the neck, this period, I noticed that I am becoming more considerate than ever before.

I looked at the maid as she carefully placed the towel on my neck. I wondered what Lena had done that made Adrian protect her this way.

I tied a scarf around my neck which made it impossible for anyone to know that I had strangled myself, I have my dignity to protect and I did not have the leverage to be answering unnecessary questions.

I entered the library which was at the outskirts of the pack and I went into one of the sections of the library and sat down there, I removed a book from the section that I dyon’t know and began to read.

Funny right??

I knew I could not last as I fell asleep after a few seconds. Tiredness could be seen on my face, although I tried not to show it, the chosen Luna made me venture into the unknown.

A hot coffee was placed on my table, I looked up to realize that it was my personal maid who had dropped it.

“Thanks” I said

She was surprised for a few minutes before she responded

“It’s my pleasure, my lady ”

I finished the coffee as I stood up and left the library, with her following me suit.

I went back into the chambers as I brought out the book in which Lena’s information was. It was very bulky.

I made it to be in different parts as I do not have the luxury of time to be looking at another person history, don’t get me wrong, I will still have revenge on her as I will follow her patiently not dedicating my whole time to take a piece of trash.

I was about to start scanning the book in front of me when I heard a knock on my door, I hid the book and I stood up from the door, I opened the door to behold my father looking at me with concern visible in his face.

“I got a report on what happened today, hope you’re alright” He asked.

I nodded my head.

A relief expression could be seen on his face as he left the room.

I removed the book on where I had hidden it and began to glance through the book, the book was so detailed. I found out that Lena was a member of the rival pack, although she was maltreated and humiliated at every slight opportunity .

Although I had spy in the pack who report every activities that happened to me in the pack. Adrian has some scores to settle with the pack. The rival pack was the one responsible for the death of his parents.

The rival pack had a little dispute with our pack which could be solved with negotiation, the rival pack had war with our pack and ended up slaying half of our pack members. The incident has been in Adrian’s mind and had given him sleepless night.

I closed the book and a smile found it’s way to my lips. Lena should enjoy all the privileges that she can, her doom is fast approaching.
