Macy’s POV
Breakfast was noiseless as everyone only ate their food without saying a word, Derick did not come down for breakfast and knew I was the reason. My conscience hit me hard for everything that is happening, I couldn’t even eat my food this morning.
Greg looked fine this morning, my eyes scanned his body for Injuries or maybe a few broken bones, but I found nothing, He looked as if he had a good night’s rest, Greg was energetic and hungry with the amount of food he consumed.
I felt relieved seeing him all happy and okay, back to his old self, I was scared something bad might have happened to him after the fight last night.
I was now seated on a chair inside Liam’s room, I stared out the window, my mind wandering to numerous things, maybe if I did not insist on speaking with Derick then all of that would never have happened, my heart broke watching the two of them fight because of me.
I closed my eyes and remembered the dreams I had, they felt real and for some reason, I could not understand why I had that weary feeling that everything I dreamt of happened before.
The words of that old lady back in my dreams played over and over in my head.
” Just like the weather changes constantly, every season has its time. The connection shall reoccur over and over again, the drums shall always be heard and two souls from different worlds shall reunite once more!”
I said those words out loud to no one, wondering what they meant and why I was there, my body shook in fear as goosebumps filled my skin.
My body was weak and tired, so I decided to rest, after an hour I woke up famished and I knew the reason was that I did not eat anything during breakfast.
My feet moved on their own and in no time I found myself in the kitchen, servants bowed their heads to me as usual, an action which I haven’t gotten used to it.
” Luna, what should I make for you?”
One of the servants in the kitchen says she had an apron hung on her waist, she was blonde and beautiful.
” I only want something simple, um maybe I can make myself a sandwich,” I try explaining.
The blonde lady smiled at me, it was warm and friendly that I could not resist but return the smile.
” Luna, you do not have to stress yourself, I will make it for you, what type of sandwich do you want?”
” I can do it myself, you do not have to make a sandwich for me,” I argue back.
” Well I make the best sandwiches here in the pack house, so why not give it a try, I bet you’ll never regret trying it,” the beautiful blonde says.
” Okay then if you insist,”
She smiles at me and immediately gets to work, she gets me a glass of freshly made orange juice while I wait for my food.
A few minutes later she was done and just like she said, it was the most delicious sandwich I had ever tasted.
” Hmm, this is so good!” I moaned out loud with my eyes closed as the food melted in my mouth,
” I told you, you’d love it,” the servant says with a big smile on her face.
I nod my head at her with my mouth full of food, and in two minutes I finished everything on my plate.
” What is your name?” I inquired,
” Mirabel, Luna,”
” Thank you for the food, Mirabel I indeed enjoyed it.”
” Thank you for the compliment, Luna, I am glad you loved the food.”
” You can call me Macy alright,”
” I cannot call you by your name, you are the Luna of this pack and the mate to our Alpha,” Mirabel explains.
” But I insist you call me by my name, it feels weird with everyone calling me that,” I murmur while shaking my head.
” I understand how you must feel, but in no time you’ll get used to it, Luna.”
I roll my eyes at her words, and she smiles at me.
” So tell me Mirabel, how long have you worked here?” I asked feeling inquisitive,
” About five years Luna,”
” Wow that is a long time, you must like it here,”
” Yes, I do I love it here. Alpha gave me a job when I lost my parents and since then, I have worked here,”
” I’m sorry about your parents Mirabel, you know I have lost my parents too, so I know how it feels.” I sincerely speak out.
” Thank you for your kind words Luna, and I’m sorry about your loss too.”
” So do you have a mate yet?” I asked, our conversation was productive, and I loved it, Mirabel was sweet and easy – going we both got along nicely.
” Yes, I do,” she says grinning,
Her countenance immediately changed after I asked of her mate, joy, and happiness showed dazzlingly in her eyes as she spoke highly of him and for that moment my heart skipped as I thought of Liam.
” How did you meet him,”
” Gary has been my childhood friend, I had a crush on him while growing up and wished the moon goddess to make us mates, so on my twentieth birthday we smelt each other as our chosen, it was the best day of my life.”
Her story made me smile, she was indeed in love with her mate, and it showed in her countenance, maybe I felt the same way, or perhaps not. My heart was in a frenzy,
Just then I heard footsteps coming behind us, Mirabel bowed her head in respect to whoever just walked inside the kitchen.
I turned my head to see the person and our eyes met, it felt like I had not seen him in ages, he looked smaller and tiny.
Derick’s gaze fixed on mine until I broke it, my heart beating fast in my chest it could destroy my rib cage,
” Mira get me a cup of coffee,” I heard his deep voice, as he ordered the maid who immediately hid to his request.
Derick took the seat next to mine on the counter, my whole body shook with fear, from being so close to him, not because I feared him but because of Liam.
The incident last night was etched on my head and in the replay, I would rather not be the reason for another fight breaking out, I have come to understand that the other part of them being their wolves has a different mindset.
These animals do not think like us and I have realized that rage can sense others’ scents on me if I get too close, so it is better I keep my distance for now.
” How are you?” Derick’s voice brings me out of my thoughts.
I turned my attention to him, looking at him closely his eyes had dark circles under them, signs of not sleeping, and I knew I was the reason.
” How are you?” I ask instead, my voice coming out as a whisper.
” I’m not fine, Macy,” Derick declares, looking deep into my eyes.
” Derick ple… ase,” I stutter with tears threatening to fall from my eyes.
” Macy, no matter what happens, I’m never going to stop loving you, I don’t care what Liam does to me, I am going to keep fighting for you because I love you, Macy Brooke!” Derick declares.
” Derick, I would rather not cause trouble for you or anyone, so I think it’s best I keep my distance for now,” I explained.
Without letting him say another word, I walked out of the kitchen, the moment I got into Liam’s room my knees gave out as I fell to the ground, my tears gushing out as I cry my eyes.
It was heartbreaking to see Derick that way, the same man I loved this past year, is the same man I am hurting now.
Just how cruel can fate be?
