Leah's Point of View
I just watched Amoux as he left after he heard that name. While I was just stunned looking at his spot even though there was no trace of him anymore.
"What else should I anticipate?" I chuckled silently.
I returned to my seat at the table and took a look at the food he had delivered. They clearly just have been cooked since they are still smoking. However, I lost my appetite because I could still hear the "Princess" in my head.
Princess...
A heavenly difference... I'm just an Omega. What authority do I have to draw comparisons between us?
I sighed and was about to scoop the soup in front of me when I suddenly stopped because of the noise coming from outside my house.
"What brings you here?"
"Why are you asking that? Don't you want me here?"
"No, I don't like it. Leave now!"
I listened to their arguments until I could hear their voices becoming closer and closer to me.
Huh? Towards me?
I got up to investigate who the two obnoxious individuals outside my house were, but before I could step, someone burst through my nearly entirely smashed door.
I was astounded because they were still debating who would be the first to enter, but since the lady was smaller than Amoux, Amoux was able to push her and entered first.
He would have closed the door, but he couldn't because it is already broken and touching it would make it more messy. I was astonished by the two of them because I couldn't believe they had turned my home into a battle arena.
"Leah, get her out of here!"
I was just jolted awake by Amoux's piercing voice. When I glanced at the woman, her grin touched the sky, and she instantly extended her hand to me.
"So, your name is Leah! You're Amoux's personal Doctor!" She told me cheerfully, and she seemed to be a sparkling crystal.
I accepted her hand after carefully inspecting it. "Y-yeah. My name is Leah Vuk."
"My name is Anaya Yera, and I'm from the Wind Winders Pack."
As she shaked our hands, the smile on her lips faded and she tightened her grasp on my hand.
I gently pulled away as she moved her face near to my body and sniffed it. She smelled as if she were a wild beast stalking its prey.
"W-the what's matter—"
"I can smell Amoux' scent in you."
My body tensed for a second before recovering and uncomfortably smiling at her. I'm afraid she'll find out I had a night with Amoux because, whether I confess it or not, I know the lady in front of me has more rights than me.
"H-How is it even possible? Perhaps, his scent went with me when he handed me food earlier."
She let go of my hand and glanced at the table where the food was. Sweat had condensed on my hand, and my pulse got louder so it made me nervous that she would hear it.
"That's good! Amoux was born to be mine. Tell me if you see another wolf attempting to take him!"
"Anaya, stop your craziness! I'll pick whoever I want, and if I say it's not you, it's not you!"
Anaya remained mute as she caught Amoux's stare, but she soon turned around and departed.
We both simply stood there staring at the door till Anya eventually left.
"You shouldn't have been so tough on her." I broke the silence since Amoux didn't seem to have any plans.
"Did I say things incorrectly?"
I just did not respond since I knew I couldn't win against him. It was difficult to talk to the royals because, in their immense affluence, they believed everything was done correctly. I mean, the way their opinions and actions are done, they think it's right.
I just sat down again; although I had no appetite earlier, I am now extremely hungry.
When I sat down, I tasted the meal he had brought me. Because it had been delivered earlier, the food had also chilled.
"You smell like yourself, not like me."
*cling*
As he sniffed, bit, and licked the back of my neck, I let go of the spoon. The heat immediately embraced my face and whole body.
"Amoux ..."
That's all he did, yet he seemed to take all of my power. He gripped my shoulder even tighter as he refused to leave behind me.
"Your smell is driving me insane."
Thousands of electrical currents rushed through my body with each whisper he made in my ear, as did the tickling I felt. I gulped them down one after the other, as if I were going to run out of water.
"Amoux ... let go... we will be caught."
I struggle to fight myself and return my judgment. I was afraid that Anaya might suddenly come back and Amoux's name would be damned.
"Why don't you just live in the palace? Won't my father give you a room there?"
"No..."
I no longer understood what was coming out of my mouth. All I knew was that his breath was hitting my skin and it was driving me so crazy.
"Ahh.."
I let out a faint moan as his hand crawled to my chest. I don't know if it's just because of the rain that my body heat has become stronger or is it because of his touches.
When his hand was about to go down to the deepest part of my body, he stopped and quickly walked away from me.
"Amoux!"
I seemed to return to myself and rise up as a result of Anaya's loud summons to him. I don't want to get caught up in a delusion.
Because I couldn't look Anaya in the eyes, I bent my head. It felt like I was committing a sin against her.
She only smiled at us with her innocent eyes, and Amoux irritably messed up his hair.
"What do you need this time?"
"So, let's go! The Lycan and Luna had something planned for us!" Anaya paused and looked at me. "Come with us, Leah."
