Chapter 2

The angry rain had, now, stopped. The Moon was shining on Suni's soft and pretty face catching the male present there, off guard. She looked beautiful to him. He crouched down, wiping blood off her lips.

"Oi! White ears, wake up."

The words Suni heard when she felt someone pulling on her snow-white ears. She blinked her eyes open to see the redhead staring at her.

Her eyes instantly widened as she saw a good number of soldiers laying down as if they were dead.

"I beat them up! Some got killed by mistake." Valente said, smiling proudly.

She turned her gaze back to the boy in front of him. "A-A-All of them?" She uttered, not believing.

Valente's lips came in a slight pout as he stared at her angrily. "YEAH! SO WHAT!?" He yelled at her causing her to flinch because of her sensitive ears. "You don't believe me. Do you?! You should've seen me kicking their asses! God, they were nothing but a piece of rotten garbage while fighting."

"R-rotten garbage? But they're w-werewolves." Suni deadpanned.

He shook his head, unbelievably. "You're that dumb, dumbass?"

She just tilted her head to the side, looking at him with confused eyes.

This was the result of not having any friends, not understanding the mind-blowing insults people

throw at each other.

He sighed. "Whatever! Just give me my payment!"

"Payment?"

"HEY! Don't tell me you haven't got anything on you!" He yelled, already irritated.

"I am sorry!" She squeaked out, putting her hands above her head and shutting her eyes close, waiting for a hit.

"What the hell are you doing!?" Valente gritted his teeth.

She opened her eyes, slightly, putting her hands down.

"WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU IN TEARS NOW!?" Valente asked with wide eyes.

"I-I am s-sorry." A tear slipped out of her eyes.

"Stop saying sorry!" He gritted his teeth.

"I am s-sorry." She said, her eyes widened as she said sorry yet again out of habit, and looked at him apologetically.

"Good-fucking-ness!" He growled and picked her brittle and bruised body up, causing her to hiss, when his hand touched her back. "Bear with it, dumbass." He said, walking ahead, carrying her bridal style.

Suni nodded. She was scared of the Alpha but felt safe and comfortable with him. She unknowingly snuggled more into his bare chest to get in a more comfortable position, startling Valente, when her cheek touched his chest.

"What's your name?" He questioned.

"S-Suni Onyx."

"S-Suni Onyx?" He mimicked and laughed at her, hearing her stutter.

Seeing him laugh at her made her pout but also made her heart flutter. She stared at him, finding it amusing. How his eyes seemed like pair of the crescent moon when he smiled.

"Well, Onyx suits you, seeing how you have black hair and eyes." He continued. "Imma call you dumbass though. It suits you more than anything." He tittered.

"O-okay..." She pouted. "What is yours?" She asked after a few seconds, looking up at him.

"Valente, Valente Flames." He replied, seeing her nod slightly, her ear brushing against his bicep. "You can call me Master." He teasingly said.

"M-Master." Suni blurted out, looking at him.

"I was fucking joking, you absolute dumbass!" He chuckled, shaking his head side to side.

"O-oh!"

A moment of awkward silence later, Suni gasped to herself causing the redhead to look down and give her a puzzling look.

"I forgot my bag!" She said, attempting to wiggle out of his strong arms.

"That's not something to dramatically gasp about." He nonchalantly let out, setting her on the ground. "Don't search for ways to escape from me. I am not letting you go until you reward me with something meaningful." He glared at her and closed his eyes, holding his hands out.

Suni looked at him, bemused but didn't say anything.

As Valente's eyes closed, he used his smelling senses to find your duffle bag. A map clicked in his mind. "Found it." He whispered.

An alluring smell hit Suni's nose as she stared at the beautiful red flames coming out of the boy's hands. She stared at him completely mesmerized as the red flames spread out like another big hand, which got her bag back in a second.

"Boom. Here you go!" He said, throwing the bag at her making her stumble back.

"Thank you so much!" She said, happily.

"Yeah. Whatever. Now, can you walk or do you want me to carry you again?" He asked, raising his eyebrows.

"N-No! I can walk. Thank you."

"Turn into your wolf! You must be a white one 'cause your ears are white! I've never seen a white one before." He said excitedly before turning into his wolf.

Suni's eyes stared at him, awestruck, admiring his deep red fur. How unusual. White wolves do exist, but a red one, she wasn't sure about a red one. She slowly crouched down wanting to touch his fur. He came closer to her, feeling her soft hands touch his soft fur. It was an amazing feeling for both of them.

All of a sudden, he jumped and hovered above her making her fall down. She winced as the ground hit her back.

Valente wondered why he couldn't mind-link her. He stared down into her eyes in his wolf form, watching her staring back into his. He sniffed around her neck, making her breath hitch before shifting back.

"You don't smell like a werewolf. But you do smell like an Omega." He said, his eyebrows furrowed.

Suni gulped. He was too close, his face was just three inches apart as he stared at her.

"Turn into your wolf," Valente ordered.

"I don't know how- I mean I can't turn into a wolf." She breathed out.

He raised an eyebrow and finally forced himself to look away from her big, beautiful eyes. He stood up from over her, giving her a hand, making her sit up.

"But you're an omega. I can smell it and I am sure you are. The bruises show your skin is hella' sensitive, and that also shows you're an omega." He said, his expression serious.

Suni noticed how he observed everything in detail and she admired him about it.

"Yes. I am. But I have no idea why I cannot turn into a wolf." She looked down, sadly.

"You're weird." He scoffed.

"I-yes." Her look saddened, remembering the times people in her kingdom threw disgusting looks at her for being weak, weird, and evil. Was it gonna be like this her whole life?

"…But," he continued, smirking as he came closer to her face, licking his lips. She felt her face heat up again as she slightly crawled backward. He stopped and pulled her towards him. "But you're weird in an interesting way." He smirked at her face which looked like a tomato and patted her head.
