ANNA:
Armet doesn't answer me, he keeps staring at me and trying to tell me thousands of things that I don't understand, surely he loves me too, but it's impossible for us to be united and even less to be able to give him the puppies he needs, someday he will be the Alpha of our Red Moon pack and he will have to have offspring, at least that's what our customs dictate.
I look at him with tenderness and hate at the same time, I have made many illusions with this moment where he makes me see that I matter to him as he matters to me. I hold him so close, he has kissed me and I have answered that kiss with all my heart, but he doesn't answer me if he wants me to be his moon or not.
I feel disillusioned and helpless. I am about to give myself to his passion and desire, but my strength has left me, I repudiate him for not loving and respecting me. I must abandon this feeling and dedicate myself to forget my silly dreams of a girl in love.
Someone is shouting my name.
-Anna, Anna. It's Grettel, she's looking for me, surely grandma wants to go back home, the nightmare of this day is over.
Armet immediately sneaks out of the balcony, the coward, he doesn't want anyone to see him alone with me in this room.
-Here I am Grettel, I feel very tired and I came to lie down for a while, I was already falling asleep.
-Your grandmother wants to see you right away, come with me.
We go down the stairs to the second floor, in the middle of the first landing I see Armet talking to Catherine, they both turn to look at me and smile in a mocking tone, at least that's what it seemed to me.
Grettel leads me to the library of the mansion, there are still Inov, my grandmother and Amir, each one in his hand has a glass of cognac and they chat with animosity. As soon as I enter and greet them, they remain silent and look at me carefully, especially Inov who slowly and undisguised scrutinizes me.
-Dear granddaughter, my beloved Anna, here you are. -Inov wishes us to be at the great annual meeting of King Eirik and his Mate Queen Ivana.
You have always gone to such meetings, grandmother.
-But this time you are also invited, your uncle wants to have a courtesy with you.
It is true my dear Anna, I have observed you today, you look very beautiful with that tight dress, you are already a beautiful woman and I think it will do you good for your self-esteem to be seen more in our meetings and annual parties.
-Being a simple Omega, I won't be well received, it will be like today.....
-Nonsense, thank your uncle instead for such a special invitation and stop behaving like a five year old girl.
While she is talking, grandma Nadia is digging her long nails into my thin arm.
-Thank you uncle, I will be present at the meeting.
It is very strange that this invitation is made to me, unless they intend to sell me to some of the important wolves, the classified ones or to my misfortune to some jackal.
This way they are going to take me away from Armet, when he finds out he will forget about me, I will then be a prostituted Omega or of lesser importance as I am now.
I count the days for that date to never come, but on the contrary the days are passing very fast and there is only one week left for the occasion, since Nadia's birthday I have not seen my beloved Armet again, I think he tries to avoid me, daily I go into his rooms to clean and pick up his mess but I do not see him, at dinner time he does not arrive as is his custom.
Yesterday I stayed at the window all night waiting for his return, he didn't come, he must have gone on a trip?
-Do you know anything about Armet, Grandma?
-Why do you ask Anna, you mustn't meddle in his life anymore, don't you know that he is very excited about going out with Catherine?
-Again? -A while ago they used to go out frequently but in the end it seems they broke up, didn't they?
-Stay out of other people's lives and come try on the dress and shoes your Uncle Inov sent you to buy for you.
I tried on the dress, a very fine suit, long as the occasion merits, totally black but accompanied by a beautiful blood red silk scarf. I look tall and slender, it fits me perfectly, the shoes match the scarf.
-You look beautiful, I am sure you will attract attention for your poise and elegance, besides, everyone will know that you have the support not only of me but also of your uncle. -I hope, for everyone's sake you behave yourself and don't go near Armet, most likely he will come with Catherine.
-To come? -Is the meeting here?
-It's a dinner, there will be the three Alphas of our friendly packs and of course the King of the Alphas, Eirik with his Mate Queen Ivana, all of them will come with their children and moons.
-During this week you will have to keep the house sparkling, besides you will help with the dinner.
That pleases me, if I am busy with those chores I won't have to attend the meeting.
All perfect, I won't have to sit at the table with so many people. I feel anguish and I have a bad feeling, that stupid Catherine will be with my Armet, she will strut around with her arm around him and I, as always, alone.
ARMET:
I have been avoiding Anna, I will indulge my father to date Catherine again. I know she is not my Moon but if he insists, in his conversations he always talks about having me several options to choose my Mate, but I am not ready yet.
I don't understand the reason why Anna has rejected me, how can she pretend to be my Moon for the simple fact of having copulated, what nonsense, she knows that being an Omega she will never manage to have a place within our hierarchy, so many failed attempts and it has not been possible to make her change her mind. At least she would have been my favorite lover, the number one after my permanent partner, I like her, I like her very much, I thought it would be easy to make her my partner for the moment, to have her always near and f**k her whenever we want while I find my Luna, but she had to play hard to get and reject me. I assure you my dear Anna that it won't be for long, sooner or later you will give me your innocence.
She will be at dinner, I know my father has bought her a beautiful dress. What I don't know is what plans they have with grandma, when these two get together they come up with unexpected events.
