Chapter 41
The outside looked like a rainforest, so much green, the foliage looked like it naturally formed, but in reality, they just made it. All of what I am seeing right now was just made by hand.
I was still walking around when I sensed someone walking near me, I was thinking that someone had come here to assassinate me or something, but then I remembered that I didn’t exactly have that many enemies, to begin with, that’s a good thing I guess. So I immediately hid as not to be caught by whoever it was.
“Is anyone here? I swear I saw you. I thought that you were going somewhere that is not here, so I decided to follow you, wherever you’re going, can I come? I can’t take it here anymore, but I think I’ll come back later in the night. I just need to think about things.” It was a girl, a woman!
That voice seemed familiar. I think I had heard it before but just can’t remember where. I didn’t want to show myself because I wanted to be alone for the night and just enjoy what I had at the moment.
When I tried to take a look at who it was, I knew that voice sounded familiar. It was Krisna. Great, she’s here. I was training to avoid her, but then she just came out of nowhere, interrupted my evening, and even decided to follow me. I wonder if she’s stalking me or something.
She kept pushing that she and I were soulmates and meant to be with each other, but I don’t believe in any of that. I don’t, and will never believe in it because it isn’t real, fate doesn’t exist because it’s all just a mere coincidence, of course, they’ll meet someone in the Annual pack gathering because it’s a social gathering, what else would happen at something like this?
“Hello? Are you going to come out? Or am I going to have to find you? I just want to get away from all this, at least for a little while. I’d like to go by myself, but I’m afraid that I won’t be able to get back since this place is quite huge. So I’d like you to accompany me, even though I don’t know who you are. I don’t really care at this point, and I just need someone by my side right now.” She said in a serious tone of voice as she started to look for me, she tried to look in the bushes, but it was a good thing I didn’t hide there. I knew hiding in the high ground would be much safer while watching someone or just avoiding them.
“Hey! I’m going to count from ten to one. If you don’t come out, I’ll be forced to find you. I’m going to apologize in advance since I’m being a little pushy right now, but I’m sure you’ll understand later.” She said in an enthusiastic tone of voice, and she sounded like she was actually having fun. This is not a game to me, Krisna.
I’m trying to enjoy my evening, but you’re just wasting time and ruining it altogether. So can you just please go and let me walk in peace?
“Ten… Nine… Eight…, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one.” She counted really fast. The moment she counted down to one, she suddenly vanished. Was she this fast? I never really got a chance to see her in action until now. Honestly, she isn’t supposed to be in action, and she’s a maid, for Pete’s sake.
I tried to find her, but she just disappeared. I don’t know where she was. I couldn’t even sense her or get a hold of her scent with my nose. This is starting to get a little more tedious. I just came here for some fresh air and took my mind off the Annual pack gathering preparations, but here is Krisna, just ruining everything! She might want to play, run around, and waste time, but I don’t have that luxury right now. I need to focus on what matters, and that is the preparations for the Annual pack gathering even though I don’t want to be here at all.
I just want to finally get everything over with, and I should be walking right now, admiring the scenery as the Moonlight pierces my skin and the cold breeze cools me down. But here I am, hiding from a woman who keeps on pushing herself on to others even if they have clearly told her that they want nothing to do with her, ever. But Krisna just does what she wants. It’s frustrating, and we’ve only met for, like, what day? Maybe two?Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
I was going to leave my hiding spot and just try to find her myself, and I did not like the one being hunted. I should be the hunter, not the other way around. So why am I hiding right now? Move Grant!
I waited for a couple of minutes until things got all quiet. I was not going to lose to some maid right now, and I am going to prove myself as part of the Alpha family that I am not one to be messed with.
Then I heard it. Someone was moving around the bushes, I could almost see her, but she was still too fast. I wasn’t able to follow her long enough to know where she was heading, and I didn’t even know if she already knew where I was or not.
But I had to do something, or she’d know my location sooner or later. I’d rather be the one who initialized first. I was about to leave my hiding spots when suddenly I sensed her, and I got her scent. When I tried to follow where the smell was coming from, I knew she was. It was coming from the ground, just below the tree I was in earlier.
