The Lycan's Rejected Mate (naiah and Amos) novel Chapter 23

Anaiah's POV

[Mature Content]

Weeks have passed by since I have been here and my life is going great but I feel like they are hiding something from me. I search my brain and search around the room we share with Leon for any sort of clues but none come up. Lately, he has been acting strange even though Dan and Arya look guilty of something.

My phone rings and I go to answer it.

"Hi, my love," Leon speaks, I sit on the bed.

"Hello, how are you?" He sighs in exhaustion and stays silent for a long time before he speaks

"Tiresome, how are you?"

"I'm bored but I'm going to work soon," I inform him. Not used to staying at home and looking pretty like they all expect me to.

"No!" He booms, and I roll my eyes.

"I'm going to work like I've been since you left and there is nothing you will say to stop me," I defy him firmly.

I end the call and get ready for work. Since I didn't get my diploma, I found a job as a waitress at a five-star hotel, I think it helped that the owner of the hotel is related to Angie.

After the shower, I put on my black trousers, white button shirt, and heels that I can walk in, I carry a bag and go downstairs to meet Angie. She is frowning but smiles when she sees me.

"He scolded you, didn't you?" I ask, she nods and sighs,

"The King is just worried about your safety, as Queen you will be a target of attacks, and the easiest way to weaken him,"

I scoff dismissively at that, I may be his Luna but only a few close friends of his pack members know of our bond, he hasn't officially introduced me to the pack, it's like he's... hiding me from the world. I ask myself if he's embarrassed by me because we are not on the same level or if I'm not good enough for these powerful Lycans. I link my arms to Angie, determined to go to work with or without Leon's approval.

"When is he coming back from his business trip?"
