" Is everything ready for the funeral?", Lady Ursula said to the Castle maids, her gaze darkening. The servants were all doing their daily activities. She didn't see any preparations. So, it was kind of upsetting her badly.
The head of all the servants came forward to reply on their behalf,
" Mistress! We...we haven't checked the Indoor yet..How can we start taking preparations without confirming it?"
Ursula looked outside in the morning sun. Then, she shot a glare at the head unhappily,
" Is it even a question? Everyone met the same fate. She isn't any different. Leave the work and start to arrange everything."
The head maid was reluctant. It was rude just to assume that the new mate who had been brought yesterday had been dead. So, they didn't dare not to take the preparations. However, apart from the lord, only Lady Ursula had the power of this household. So, they were bound to obey her orders.
The head maid left with a bitter heart and recalled the event of last night. The wolf God had left quite late at night right at 4 A.M. Naturally, he didn't stay with his newly found mate that long because of the guilt that he felt towards them. Could it be possible that he actually took a liking at this new girl? Only if she lived...........
On the other hand, Serena woke up with a different feeling in her heart. Her whole body felt sore as if she had been cooked and burnt. Her long eyelashes fluttered open to look around and discovered herself at an unfamiliar place.
Where was she? Was it after life?
She lifted up herself from the bed weakly and was taken back by the pain that shot from her neck. At the same time, the front door pushed open and a maid was about to enter but she gasped, halting in her tracks. After blinking her eyes a few times, she let out a horrific scream, dashed downstairs,
" Aah..Ghost.. Ghost... Ghost..."
Serena snapped back to reality. Suddenly, her brain was fully awake and she turned her head to look at her reflection in the mirror.
She..she was alive? How...how was it possible?
She touched the wound on her neck, winched in pain after recalling the passionate moment between them. He officially marked her last night and even took her in several positions until her body became unresponsive. But the result left her speechless to death. The entire world knew about the cursed life of Wolf God. It was impossible to survive after being his mate. However, the truth was right in front of her eyes.
Dragging her heavy feet out of the bed, she decided to change herself first to look presentable. Then, she could figure out all the answers to her questions. Thankfully, she had brought clothes with her and wore them quickly.
As the maid continued to make fuss in the downhall,Serena strode downstairs personally. With her appearance, there was a pin-drop silence around the house especially Lady Ursula who had a look like the devil was here to take her soul away. Lady Ursula reacted first, muttering through her gritted teeth,
" Im.. Impossible... Just impossible..."
The head maid was in tears of joy. Finally, the almighty had listened to her prayers. The wolf God's 104th mate was alive. She rushed over to Serena in tears, blabbering anxiously,
"My lady..My lady..o my god! You are alive..How can you be alive? "
Serena was clueless too. She touched the back of her mark and muttered weakly,
" I..I don't know.. really...."
Lady Ursula growled, spatting in disbelief and doubt,
" This is impossible! It is only possible because the lord didn't mark you. Isn't it?"
The head maid detected the bitterness of her words and looked up at Serena worriedly. Serena was quiet, her brain wasn't working fast. After what happened to her, she was definitely stunned and speechless.
Lady Ursula couldn't stand the appreciation that Serena was getting there. She stormed forward and tore down the back of Serena's body. The maids all gasped at her attitude. Immediately, a big mark of teeth came in everyone's view and the maids all shed tears happily. Finally, their lord had found his true mate. They were going to get an heir soon.
Ursula stumbled on her step, feeling dizzy as she kept mumbling loudly,
" Impossible..how...how could it be...Call the Lord..Call the Lord NOW! SOMEONE!! CALL HIM!!"

Somewhere in the kingdom, the wolf God had arrived to solve a feud between two Alphas. However, he was completely distracted ever since he walked out of the chamber. His wolf never felt that fierce about claiming someone. Initially, he took those women once and left as soon as the mark was completed. But last night, it was completely different. His wolf couldn't resist the urge to take her. As a result, he took her several times,left with a reluctant heart. Things were different about her. His wolf acted extremely demanding around her.
However when the sun rose up early in the morning, he felt different each time. His wolf felt lonely with a broken heart of losing his mate. Today, he was exceptionally calm like other usual days. A servant came to pass the news from Lady Ursula, bowed at the absentminded wolf God,
" My lord..Lady Ursula..she summons you.. Something happened to the castle and you have to arrive as fast as possible."
Killian's expression darkened in unknown fear. What was so unusual today? Just another mate died...
_______
" How is this possible?", the door of her room burst open, jerking her off from her thoughts. Serena was taken back by his sudden arrival. The news of her survival had spread all over the kingdom. People had different thoughts about her. But she didn't know how to feel at the moment. She just escaped from her step-mother's torture. However being the mate of the wolf God wasn't that easy. Even, she didn't know whether she loved him or not. The s*x was done out of pure needs and desire.
Killian stood there with a baffled expression, his eyes scanning the girl in disbelief. He was afraid of blinking his eyes. Serena bowed at him out of formality and replied in a shuddering voice,
" I..I have no idea..my lord.."
Could it be possible that his curse was revoked finally through her?
The question wasn't answered but his wolf howled in joy. It was hard to keep his reactions in control because of his character. Killian stopped in front of Serena, suddenly blurted unexpectedly,
" Show me your mark!"
He doubted that the mark wasn't completed fully. Serena felt a little shy and turned around to undo her zipper. With a little force, her back was exposed to show the mark of her neck, a little down to her back. Killian saw the deep wound, still filled with blood and the scar was looking fresh.
He swallowed the overwhelming emotions hard. All these years, he prayed so hard to the almighty that his life would be changed one day but the death of his mates never stopped. Now, he had given up on all his hopes, this girl appeared in his life like the ray of sunlight. He was even too scared to be happy.
Killian ran his hand over the mark, feeling her shivering under his touch. The mark was perfect, blended with her skin to reveal it like a tattoo. His low voice dripped with concern, echoing into her ears,
" Does it hurt badly?"
Serena didn't wish to lie since it was aching badly. Even as an Alpha Princess, her wolf felt an unbearable pain from his mark. After all, he was the god Of the werewolves and held the ultimate powers over the whole werewolves species.
Serena replied in a weak voice, her back facing him,
" It hurts...."
Killian's face turned worried immediately. Holding her shoulders in place, his head bent down to lick the mate mark. Serena felt a jolt through her veins when his hot tongue licked her mark. At the same time, her desire became unusually high, her core started dripping already.
She claimed herself as an official sinner. How could she arouse from a single lick of his tongue?
Killian smelt her arousal and began to suck harder on her wound. Unexpectedly, her lips parted and she let out an unexpected moan.
Shit...
Serena cursed herself, her cheeks turning red after the shameless act. However, it felt better after his few licks. As the air began to turn hot in the chamber, someone opened the door without knocking. Mistress Ursula's voice echoed in the room, cracking midway,
" My Lord...the lady Jessica...is...here..."
The scene in front of her shocked her on that spot. Killian quickly licked the final drop of blood even glanced at her way unhappily. Ursula stood there numbly, fighting with her tears that threatened to fall down.
How could he treat her so well in just a day?
