Chapter 20 TWENTY
ESTELLE
It was night, at around eight P. M. I was taking a stroll through the mansion, thinking about the concluded party that ended an hour ago.
It was lovely, especially with the absence of those annoying council members.
They left before the evening came, and I was over the moon. Even Argon was relieved when he learnt they were gone.
He could finally breath the fresh air of the open.
The party went pretty well, even though Argon and I missed an hour plus from it.

Yeah, we where in the room having our own separate party in bed.
It would turn out that my father wasn’t there when I went over to the room to see him and Argon.
My Alpha had seen his queen in distress and sent that abomination, called a maid, to call me, claiming my father was here.
Well, she did use my father like Argon instructed her to, but she almost got me into trouble!
“I’m going to spare her for now. If not for the beautiful moment I had with my Argon, the rage I had would have never left. But she’s lucky,” I chuckled, walking through the hallway where the party had taken place.

I saw the servants cleaning up the hall, as I cat walked by in my night robe, flaunting my beauty and power as the soon to be Luna.
“I will be heading back to my sweetheart’s room, so it’s best I’m prepared for any steamy action,” I said, adjusting my night robe, which was a see–through garment, showing off my undies.
It’s my home, I can do as I please.
I would have returned home with father, but someone needs to watch over my darling Alpha.
I mean… He just won an award. He needs me to brighten the remaining hours of his celebration.
“That’s why we’re mates, I chuckled, curling my hair while exiting the hallway slowly.

Just as I was making my way towards the staircase, my eyes caught something in the pathway at my right.
I looked and noticed the light in that area suddenly went off. It was looking a bit dark, but had the other turning’s light, reflecting.
“Did the light just die?” I asked no one while looking at that path.
Only for me to see a dark figure moving swiftly into the second turning that had llight.
“What was that?” I uttered, feeling my heart skip at the speed of the figure.
I immediately drew away from the stairs, drawing closer to this dark area to see if I could spot what that was.

“Goodness! Why did the light have to die now?!” I groaned, feeling uncomfortable with the darkness.
I had to switch eyes with my wolf, so I could see exactly what was moving in this dark path.
Just as I was adjusting into the dark…
SLAM!
“AH!” I screamed, looking at the window at the right corner, beside me.
It had opened wide due to the strong wind coming from outside.
It’s getting cold.
“It’s freezing. Looks like it’s going to rain
5/13
tonight,” I sensed through the cool wind.
Since I saw nothing, I decided to call out to one of the guards to come and fix the light.
“It’s not okay to stay in the dark, especially when there are furniture around!” I yelled, waiting for anyone to answer.
Just as I was about to call in the second time, my nose picked something coming from the dark pathway.
That got me holding my calls, trying to recall where I’ve smelt that before.
“This is familiar,” I sensed, facing the dark path.
I took in a deep sniff of the area and gasped out next, with my face blooming with joy.

“Argon? ” I recognized my darling Alpha.
It’s his scent.
“But I thought he was upstairs. What’s he doing here?” I wondered, finding this confusing.
But the nose doesn’t lie. This is my Argon’s scent. This pathway has his smell all over it.
As I drew in another scent and looked straight to the end where the other turning was, I spotted a shadow, standing there, before the lights went off in that turning.
Now it was clear to me.
Argon is taking out the lights just to lure me into the dark.
“You naughty wolf. You want to have me in
7/13
the dark, huh? Alright then.” I bit down on my lower lip, stepping into the darkness, making my way towards the turning.
His scent increased more, engulfing my nostrils.
I recognized his scent when he feels like getting intimate with me. It’s always strong and has some kind of spell, drawing me closer.
Gosh! Now I’m getting wet just by sniffing him alone.
“Argon, I know you’re here. You can’t wait to get naughty with me, huh?” I teased, making a turn into the next path I had spotted his shadow.
I stepped in fully, calling Argon’s name while imagining him grabbing me from behind just
8/13
to lay with me.
Now I was ready for anything naughty, as long as it makes me feel good:
As I drew further into the pathway, my eyes caught a figure ahead of me.
I stopped, trying to see clearly if that was him or an object.
Looking closely, I discovered it was a being, but not like Argon. It looked… Different.
“Argon, are you there?” I called, drawing a bit closer to see what this figure was.
That’s when something unexpected happened.
Argon’s scent, it vanished into thin air.

It was suddenly replaced by a very strong smell I’ve never smelt before in my entire life.
The scent of this being sent shivers down my spine. My wolf gave a troubling whine, growling at whatever was before me.
My whole body was suddenly engulfed with… With… Fear.
“Who’s… Who’s there?!” I roared, drawing back slowly while getting into a battle
stance.
I could still see the figure. It just stood there like a statue. And the odor circulating this area was beginning to terrify me.
Why is this smell so off? I’ve never smelt it before.
What is it?!

It it added to my fear, taking my eyeyes awa frofrom the figure I was staring atat.
ByBy the time I turned back to looket at the figfigure…
“WHATAT THE HELL?!” I was horrified to to th corererdrifting to the window.
In the dark were two glowing eyes, shining right at me, standing halfway from the exact spot that figure was in.
The scent was stronger than ever, engulfing my nostrils powerfully. It made my knees tremble before it.
When the thunder came in with a flash of its light, I saw what was before me.
A huge black wolf with large teeth, growling at me with hunger.
Fear engulfed me at the sight of this monster!
I have never seen such height nor a black wolf before.
And most especially, its eyes.

They are… Green?
