The Wolf Who Saved Me

We both remained silent until the food arrived.

“Have you tried it in here?” I asked.

“Not yet,” Reule said plainly.

“So, how do you know it will be good?”

“I don’t really care. I just don’t want Lila to follow. Now, eat.”

I tried the pepperoni pizza, and it was not bad. I was surprised as to why it did not have any customers.

“It tastes good, right?” I asked.

“No,” Reule replied with a cold voice.

“It was not good, but he ate a lot.”

“I am hungry, and there is no choice. Hurry up, finish your food. We are not done yet. We still need to buy something.”

“What else you wanted to buy?”

“Just eat and stop talking.”

I rolled up my eyes and finished my food. After Reule made the payment, he stood, and I followed him. He went inside an Apple Store and bought two iPhones and a sim card. But I did not bother asking to whom he would give it.

It was almost evening when we arrived at Reule’s house. While we were heading to the main door, I noticed five men working out in the yard. My eye got glued on them. I even stopped walking.

But all of a sudden, Reule went in front of me, frowning. “Can you please move out of the way? You are blocking the nice view,” I yelled.

“What did you say!?” Reule yelled back.

“Move out of the way! I want to see those abs.”

Reule suddenly growled, turned his head, and yelled, “Boys! Stop that damn workout and put on your shirts!”

The boys stopped because they got scared. Then, they all said, “Yes, Alpha!”

Reule looked at me, still angry but calmer than a few minutes ago. “What did I tell you?”

“Jeez, okay! I can’t just appreciate people’s abs.”

I turned and went inside the house. I don’t want to hear him nag. When I opened the door, I found Lila sitting in the living room.

“Oh, hello, Lila!” I greeted and forced a smile.

“Where is Alpha Reule?” Lila asked without a smile nor hello.

“I am here. What do you want?” Reule answered.

“I will excuse myself,” I said and headed upstairs so they could talk. To be honest, I wanted to hear their conversation. I don’t know, but I feel like it will be a good drama like a series. Now, I feel like watching it, but I can’t.

“Why did you yell at me earlier,” Lila asked.

“I told you I don’t like to make people wait. And you were meeting someone there; you should not have dragged me to go with you,” Reule replied.

“I already explained to you why, and yet you choose to still yell at me. You even left me there.”

“Why should we take you? Wouldn’t it be rude to the person your meeting?”

“I don’t care about her. Besides, she knows how much I liked you, so she wouldn’t mind shopping by herself.”

“But I do mind. I don’t like you to treat Chelsea like that all because of me.”

“But why were you with that slave?”

“Be careful of what you say!”

“Why? Didn’t you say that you will either turn her into a slave or your mate?”

“And what if I turn her into my mate?”

“You can’t be serious! You don’t just pick someone to be your mate.”

“Exactly! So, stop forcing yourself to me.”

“But Alpha Reule, our relationship is different.”

“As far as I know, we don’t have a relationship except you being a member of my pack.”

“How could you say that? We have slept several times.”

“Didn’t you say that you were in heat and you need help to ease yourself?”

“Yes, but..”

“Then, that is what the sex is all about. Nothing more. End of conversation, Lila. I need to see Nana Lolita. I know she was the one who let you in here.”

“Don’t get upset with her. I forced her to let me in while you are gone.”

“I know that, but that is not why I have to see her. If you’ll excuse me.”

“Why did you buy her clothes?”

“My god, Lila! Too many questions.”

“But why, Reule? You did not give me anything.”

“Obviously, the reason is that she has nothing.”

“Usually, you ask members of the pack for donations, but for her, it’s different.”

“Why, Lila? Will you give her clothes and shoes if I ask?”

“Not really.”

“See, you will refuse. Do I have to wait forever for someone who will give Wren clothes and shoes for her to change? I don’t want someone who smells in this house. I have to go now. Please see yourself out.”

Lila was disappointed and heartbroken. She knows that something is going on between them. She thinks Wren is changing Reule for the worst.

Meanwhile, I was in the room, arranging the clothes and shoes that Reule had bought me. I heard a knock on the door, and it was Reule.

“Don’t sleep right away. Nana Lolita is cooking and wanted to celebrate. Adriana got a participation prize in the contest.”

My face brightened, and I smiled. “Really? That is great!” I said.

Reule only smirked. “What’s good on it? She did not even win.”

“At least there is a participation prize rather than nothing. Why can’t you appreciate it?”

“Because I love to win, and I bought her an expensive gift.”

I laughed. “That’s why you are not happy with the prize because you bought Adriana an expensive gift. But I think she did not ask you to buy, right?”

“No, she didn’t. But I was so confident that she would win. She is a member of my pack, so she should have won.”

“It was not a fighting competition, my dear friend. Being your pack member has no bearing on her score. That is not part of the criteria.”

“I know! But the judges did not even think about it.”

“Whatever Reule! Anyway, I will not sleep. I will wait for Adriana’s party because I want to congratulate her.”

“By the way, this is yours. It has a sim card already. I gave the other one to Adriana.”

Reule handed me one of the phones he bought earlier. I cannot understand this guy. Sometimes he can be nice, but other times he can be a complete asshole.
