Chapter 116
Auren POV
After Tom left, the new cook, Mirabelle, sented well in her position. Vivi was having a hard time adjusting with her. I have no idea but Vivi didn’t like how poised Belle was. She whispered to me one day that Mirabelle acted like she was superine to all others. She barely talked with people around her.
But she makes good food,” I said to Vivi “Besides, if she doesn’t want to talk to others, it’s fine. She is doing her job well, isn’t it?”
Vivi broiled. “You don’t understand, Luna Belle doesn’t talk to us because of her nature. It seems like she feels she is much above us to even interact. It’s like she is walking with her move high every time!”
I couldn’t help laughing. “Vivi.” I said lightly. “Please give her time to adjust. You are so used to Tom and him arguing with you for every little thing. that you don’t want to accept Belle, Seriously, you are just driven by your hias”
Vivi pursed her lips. She shook her head stubbornly and went back to the kitchen. I picked up my romance novel and began reading it. Lucien had gone to a neighboring pack for some pack business and so I was really getting bored and irritated.
It had been a week ever since Belle had come. She was fast proving to be a good cook with impeccable manners. Her chocolate pastries were to die for. And these days with all my cravings growing. I loved what she prepared for me. I felt like she pampered me a lot, but in her own way.
She was a no–nonsense girl, which was good, and kept to herself. Vini had mentioned before that Belle didn’t make friends or talk to other omegas didn’t join their small parties or go shopping with them. But those were her character traits. How could you judge someone for their reserved nature! Besides, Helle was thoroughly verified by Tarian. She came from the Iron Fang pack, and her Alpha was aware of her job here. However Tarian ensured that she severed her connection with the Iron Fang pack and inducted her in ours.
A soft knock on my room’s door snapped me out of my book. “Come in,” I said. The door opened and I was surprised to see Belle coming in. She had changed the color of her hair. They were green now. But the more interesting part was her green lipstick and green nail polish. Even her eye kohl was green. Like she was in some green revolution.
She stepped inside and bowed to me. “Luna, if 1 may, can I suggest something?”

I cocked an eyebrow. Usually no omega had the audacity to come and talk to me. They stayed away from me unless I needed them. The guards would send them off Only Vivi was allowed to meet me. But I guess the guards must have thought that she was no threat and they allowed her to come to my floor. Besides, Tarian was showing a lot of interest in her, so that would explain her preferential treatment. Not that I mind it
“Sure,” I said.
Her lips curled up as her hands fidgeted with her apron. “It’s been a week since I have joined, but I don’t see you going for a picnic. I mean-” She licked her lips nervously, “I mean I am no one to make suggestions, but still.“her voice trailed off.
It was a great idea. In fact, I was so bored all the time that I couldn’t help but agree to it. However, I knew that Lucien would create a huge ruckus if I went without informing himh. Thanks for your suggestion, Belle,” I said politely consider it. Honestly, I was so excited on the inside, but I kept
a calm exterior
Belle bowed to me and left. I liked that she didn’t pester me about it.
When Lucien returned in the evening, I asked him whether I could go for the picnic or not.
“No. 1
do, you can’t!” he growled. “I won’t risk you going anywhere!”
“Lucien, this isn’t fair. I feel so bored all the time. A picnic is going to relax me. I also need an outing. Some way to unwind. Sitting here all day long with a book in hand is not my idea of relaxing. I love to cook, but you’ve stopped ine from that as well. What should I do?”
Lucaen blinked at me in surprise because this was the first time I really snapped at him. Striding across the room, he closed the gap between us and sat on his knees in front of me. “Baby, I’m sorry if I’ve made you feel like that. But I’m worried about our pup. That’s all.”
“Pregnant women go everywhere. They work, they cook and they enjoy! Not like me who keeps sitting in her house?” I whined.
He tied
This head as if wondering what had gotten into me.
I cupped his cheeks and said, Please Lucien. This is a small request. Let me go for a picnic. I’ll go to a place of your choice.”
His shoulders slumped in defeat. “Okay, love. If that makes you happy. But you will go to the nearest meadow
I squealed in joy, and kissed him on his lips. “Thank you!”
He shook his head as he chuckled. Then he took his phone out and called Tarian “Tomorrow. Auren will be going for a picnic, Make sure that she isn’t alone. Ask the wives of the council members to join her, And also sad Vivi and some pegas with her. There should be tight security around dradea Try to create at least three layers of security. And I want you to go with her”.
