CHAPTER 22
ESTELLE
“Where have you been?” Argon asked, staring at me right in bed.
He was already half naked, waiting for me to step into bed and brighten his mood.
But after that incident at the pathway. I no longer felt like getting naughty but felt le sleeping instead.
“You look rough. Did something happen? Argon asked, taking note of
My hair was rough, my beautiful and expensive robe was looking like a filthy rag. It il a few rip at different corners.
It’s ruined in short,
“It’s nothing deat. I… Well it had a hell of a ride while coming here,” I said, sighing
Dracing my feet, I gently got into bed with Argon, laying next to him.
The heat and scent from his body engulfed my nostrils, taking my mind to that pathway once again.
“I could sell Argon there when I saw that shadow. Should I ask him if he was around at that time? I pondered on, recalling that monster and it’s terrifying
“No, I don’t want to think about it. I feel so weak just picturing that creature.” I mumbled, burying my head down on my pillow.
Argon was too busy touching my body and his lips caressing my shoulder. He didnt even sense the distress I was in or even ask if I was okay.
He just wants to have me,
“Why aren’t you getting moved?”
171 uttered, tilting my head to have a look at Argon’s face.
“You don’t look excited. I thought you wanted us to have this?” Argon asked, turning me over to face him.
“Yes, I did, but…” I sighed, trying to turn back to the position I was in. But Argon helme liom doing so.
Our eyes came locking, as he asked, “What is wrong? Tell me, what happened?”
I could see concern for me in his gaze. He loves me so much and can’t bear to see me unhappy.
But what do I tell him?
That I drank a shot and ended up wrestling with an imaginary green eyed wolf? Belge I even narrate the whole story, he would have laughed his head off, just like Jerome and the others.
No, I won’t tell him.
Come on, Estelle. What is wrong? He asked, slowly sliding his hands around my exposed body.
His caress were beginning to get me aroused. I shut my eyes for a brief minute to fee his tingling touch, with smiles slowly creeping across my face..
“It’s nothing sedious, dear,”
“Are you sure?” He asked, sliding his hand to my chest and taking hold of my left bo

That caused a gasp to escape my lips with my eyes dimming with pleasure.
Naughty! He always have a way to get me in the mood.
-With this intense pleasure revived once again, I decided to bury this thoughts about
All I wanted now was my Argon.
pathway and that imaginary beast.
Take me, my love. Make me yours, on and on,” I whispered, pulling Argon’s head down to mine, locking my lips with his.
We moaned in pleasure, reviving that fire we wanted badly.

that nonsense spiking fear in innocent hearts like mine,” I planned within,
“Estelle, can you hear me? Estelle!”
“Who Who’s that?! I jolted out of my sleep on hearing my name, sitting up in an Estant.
My eyes were rolling because I was so tired from the wonderful turn on between Argan and 1.
But who the hell was calling
g me?
on dimming my eyes open a bit, my whole body came shivering, sending my gaze wide opened in an instant.
The door, it was wide open!
1 locked the door. Who opened it?” I uttered, staring at the door in the dark.
The clock beside the bed, showed that it was two in the morning. So, who dared to open the door I locked last night?
“Did I forget to close it? But I remember turning around and shutting it close with the key. “I pondered, feeling confused
Just as I was staring and trying to recollect if I locked the door, a shadow passed by the room, causing my heart to skip.
My whole body quivered, causing me to drag back into bed, nearing Argon.
“The shadow. Why does it look like the same one from the pathway? I recalled, feeling scared…
I tried to calm myself by believing I was dreaming, but it wasn’t a dream. I had pinched my own skin and felt the pain.
This was no dream!
When I lifted my eyes again at the door, the shadow went by with a swift!
“Argon!” I called, terrified at the movement of this shadow
“Argon, wake up. There’s someone in I paused, feeling nothing but the bed.
When I turned to look at the spot my Argon was laying in, it was empty.
Argon wasn’t in bed!
“Argon? Where are you?” I called, believing he was in the bathroom.
But I got no response back.

CHAPTER 22
When I called his name for the last ee, the shadow move, making me shiver
That’s when I heard….
“Estelle, what the hell!
“Argon?” My eyes canse large, noticing how the shadow mmeil, looking like my Argin
That was him all along?
I have been calling you but you didn’t answer, “He said, sounding upel
This left me confused though. Why did he leave the mom? And why is he just calling me outside instead of stepping into the mom?
“Argon, why are you out there? Is something wrong?” I asked, emefully dropping both legs on the floor.
That’s when I got a response from Argon. Nothing is fine, Estelle. Why didn’t you tell me that you were attacked?”
“Huh? Attacked? I those in astonishment.
Who told him was attacked?
Was it Jerome and the guards?
But thought they didn’t believe me,
“No, something must have happened. Did he…” I gasped, rising to my feet, getting excited slowly.
“Who told you
you I was attacked?” I asked, drawing closer to the door, step by step
Argon sparked out, as I watched his shadow making a move. “Jerome said you were attacked by a beast. I stepped out to attend to something, only to be attacked by a black wolf!”
“Black wolf?! He… He saw it too?
I was beyond astonished.
So I was right all along. I did see a black green eyed wolf!
And from what Argon is saying, it seems they are haunting the monster down.
Thrilled, I decided to hurry out and join my Argon, and also tell him what had happened to me.
But Argon moved, still talking in anger.
“Argon, wait!” I called, wrapping my robe properly, before rushing out of the room to catch up with Argon.
I came out but didn’t see him.
There was no need to think of where he had entered, because there was a turning at the left, making me believe he took that part
And to prove I was right, I heard him talking in rage.
“My baby. He must be mad because I didn’t tell him what happened. I have to calm his mood before he searches for that abomination, I decided, taking that turning, trying to catch up with Argon
From the first turn, I went into another, and another, until…
I stopped.

1 was now in an empty room in the mansion, having only old fomitere conrred with theets,
And funny enough, Argan was no where ansund.
I remained still, thinking about my sudden move from the mom and to this point..
“Throughout the nin, I didn’t have a glimpse of Angon’s back. I just heard his wice, plcked his scent and saw. My mouth dropped slowly.

“That same shadow had Argon’s scent. And when I drew iboser..”
All of a sudden, the lights around that area
My heart flew to my chest, thinking of the terrible incident 1 faced at the pathway.
No, this can’t be real. This is a dream. Wake up, Estelle,” I panicked, rushing out from the room and retracing my steps through the dark path I came from

As I mashed through the path and came into the third turning with a single spotlight at the centre, a strong smell streamed into my nostrils, sending me to halt at
Once.
I froom, recognizing the strong odor.
It’s…. Its the same smell:
It’s from it!
Fear overwhelmed my body when I heard something grow in the darkness at the end
1 shivered, looking hard into the dark to see what was there.
That’s when I saw it
Two flashing green eyes came glowing from the dark, making a slow walk towards the light.
“Oh shit! Oh shit!! This can’t be real. It can’t!” I winced in my spot, still looking straight at those terrifying green eyes.
My knees trembled, almost rendering me paralyzed,
I thought I was seeing things then, but this means I wasn’t drunk. I did see a green eyed wolf
Behold, the mighty beast stepped into the light, revealing it’s monstrous height while darting its gaze at me.
Ay mouth dropped when I got a good look at this wolf in the light. It’s bigger than what I saw in the darkness,
This is a monster!
“What Are you?” I stammered, trembling at my spot.

But this beast didn’t say a weed. It just stared at me, sending chills down my kéne..
And I couldn’t stop tight there. I needed a way out of this situation.
“What are you exactly? Are you some
of animal mimicking a wolf or what 21
I questioned, raising my voice at the same time.
Maybe, just maybe, Argon would hear me.
Suddenly, the black woll chuckled deeply. It sounded like something I’ve never heard bi–fore,
Its a laugh, but a tenilving one.
“A very stupid question to ask, Estelle.
“How did you know my name?

It’s imple, Estelle. Your DEATH!” It mared, advancing fully into the dark, coming for me.
When I saw this, I ran away with speed, racing back through the paths I came from
The smell of this black beast was getting stronger and stronger, notifying me of how close it was gaining on me.
“Is this how weak you are? You brag to be so great, but your own wolf is as weak as you! It mocked from behind.

Panting in fear and running, I began praying for hell from the goddess, begging her to save me.
Suddenly, a door opened up ahead.
Someone was stepping out.
Is that… Argon?”
Yes! It’s Argon!
He was stepping out from one of the rooms with Jerome.
On seeing them, I began to scream out, calling for their help.
ARGON!! HELP ME!!” I cried, and my darling Alpha
ha heard me.
He turned around and was stunned to find nie running towards him,
“Estelle? What are you doing..
Before he could complete his question, I dived into his hold, panting out for air.
“Argon! Help me! It’s back! I cried, hiding behind him.

Argon was confused. He couldst un estand why I was crying

“Green eyed wolf?” Argon uttered, lifting his brow.
Seeing his face expression, I narrated what had happened before and now, so he’d understand the grave situation were in.
But instead of getting support, Argon and Jerome bursted into laughter!

He didn’t say No to me, but carried out what I wanted.
But when Argon sniffed the air, he didn’t pick anything else but mine, Jerome’s, and his scent.
“That’s impossible. The wolf was chasing me just now.”
“Estelle, please,” Argon said with laughter all over his face, pulling me closely into ha hold.
“My love, I know y

“Argon, that’s not…”.
“I’m sorry for leaving you alone, okay?” He Interrupted, making promises to me
Still, he didnt listen to me.

“No one believes me. Even Argon thinks I’m seeing things. I will shock them all when fish out that beast. I will find where in hiding.”
I sat in the living room, flashing to my horrible experience with that beast,
hust in one night, it almost killed me!
Telling Argon and his Beta, Jerome, they both assumed. I was drunk!
I am not drunk!
Even the stupid servants who where on duty at that time, claimed they saw nothing.
If they are going to stay blind to what is happening then I won’t join them.

was supposed to be making preparations to head back home to my pack, but with what I went through, I decided to stay back and hunt that green eyed wolf down.
That’s the only way I can
prove
to Argon that what I saw wasn’t my invagination.
I’ll be heading to the office now, “I heard Argon’s voice outside the living room.
Seems he’s talking to someone.
I immediately got to my feet, approaching the doar to check. There I met Argon talking to Jerome, sharing his plans to attend an important meeting with other top CEOs who witnessed his award ceremony.
1 need to get there on time.”
I understand, Alpha. Ill stay back and attend to the council members,” Jerome said, promising Argon.
He patted his Beta’s shoulder, set to rush out of the mansion but stopped when I stepped out fully so hard notice me
“No goodbye kisses?” I asked, frowning at Argon
“Estelle, I didn’t see you there my love. I’m sorry.” He apologized, drawing closer to with Peck to the cheek.
It wasn’t enough, but I can
manage
“I’m off to work now. Just take good care of yourself”
“Sure, “ I said, smirking at him.
Before he stepped out, Argon warned me about the Council members, advising I hide before they arrive.
Of course I wasnt going to allow those oldies to see me here. I don’t want any hopes for my sweetheart.
But still, when will be man up and tell them he’s no longer with Brielle?
I don’t think I can continue like this.
