KABANATA XXVIII
Third Person's POV
At the mansion, Everly is currently preparing breakfast when Greyson suddenly arrives at the kitchen. Her eyes widened as she immediately cleaned the table from all the mess she and Linda had made while cooking.
Magkakalahating oras na ng umalis si manang upang kumuha ng mga tanim sa likod ng mansion upang ipang-halo sana sa kanilang niluluto. Hindi naman inaasahan ni Everly ang pagpunta ngayon ni Greyson dito. Madalas ay hindi na ito sumasalo sa kanila sa pagkain o kaya naman ay magpapahatid na lamang ito kay manang sa kwarto.
Their training is still ongoing and Everly has been doing everything she can in order not to disappoint the alpha. He has been so strict that Everly can't even bring herself to wake up the next day. But then, she obligates herself to do all of this hard work since it will surely pay off later.
She has to gain the approval of the pack, as well as the previous alpha. If not, then she has to leave this mansion as soon as possible.
"N-Narito ka na pala. Pumunta lang s-saglit si manang sa taniman upang mamitas ng sariwang prutas at gulay." Kabadong usal ni Everly. Sa kabila ng ilang araw na nakasama niya ito ay hindi pa din niya mapigilang mautal sa tuwing magsasalita.
Her head automatically shuts down whenever the man is around. He's too intimidating to look and talk to. That's why she can't help the stammering of her voice.
Mabilis niyang inihain sa harap nito ang nilutong sabaw at kanin kasabay ng mainit na kape. Tahimik niyang inobserbahan ang tinging ibinibigay nito sa pagkaing kanyang inihain. Ngunit makaraan ang ilang minuto na pagtitig doon ay ini-angat nito ang tingin sa kanyang direksyon dahilan kung bakit mabilis niyang naiwas ang tingin dito.
"Let's start the training." Malamig na usal nito dahilan kung bakit mabilis na lumapit si Everly sa harap nito.
"P-Pero hindi mo pa nagagalaw ang iyong pagkai—" Hindi niya na nagawang tapusin ang sasabihin dahil sa lamig ng tinging ibinibigay nito.
He stood up from his seat and walked straight towards the door. She felt a little offended because of what the man did.
"Your training doesn't involve spending your time here in the kitchen. You still have so many things to learn," bakas ang kawalan ng emosyon sa boses nito dahilan kung bakit naiyuko na lamang ng dalaga ang kanyang ulo bago mahina iyong itinango.
"Naiintindihan ko," hindi niya na mapigilan ang paglabas ng lungkot sa kanyang boses dahil sa nangyari.
Now that she's discovering another side of Greyson, she can't help but question her decisions so far. The man is more meticulous and perfectionist than she could ever have expected.
Is this how he was raised by his father as well? I couldn't imagine how sad and lonely he must've felt all those years of nonstop training. Komento na lamang niya sa kanyang sarili bago mabilis na iniligpit ang mga pagkaing inihain niya dito. Tinakpan niya na lamang ang iba sa mga iyon at ang matanda na ang bahalang magpatuloy sa pagluluto.
Her stomach is already growling due to hunger but she just brushed it off and continued her way towards the luna's garden and to the cabin. She hasn't had a proper meal since yesterday because of their training.
Sa loob ay nadatnan niya ang lalaki na may inaayos sa isang bakanteng mesa di kalayuan sa pinto. Kaagad niyang tinahak ang daan patungo sa tabi nito. Doon ay nakita niya ang iba't ibang klase ng espadang gawa sa kahoy na magkakaiba din ang sukat at kapal.
