A day of not having anything to do , the party was two weeks beforehand and I already instructed the organizers what kind of party we are having. We have decided to make it a music feast to make everyone comfortable and to get rid of formality. It would be a colorful party with drinks and disco balls. I'm excited to join it myself , I'll definitely sneak out even Archer won't allow me to. I walked out of my room bored , contemplating of what to do with the remaining hours of this boring day. I don't even have someone to come along with me if I wanted to go out and roam around. It'll be boring to go out alone too , and Archer is not an option , he'll just ruin the mood. Then my gaze went towards a certain room. And my decision was fixed!

"Whewe awe we going awnt Aveewa?"-little Anna asked. Right , I am planning of bringing this little girl out. For everyone it'll be a mother and daughter bond. For me it'll be a girls' bond.

"We're going shopping , girls bond!"-I said in a cheerful tone as I slip a pink hoodie on her tiny frame. My niece looks like a babydoll.

"Giwl's bonding?"-she asked curiously.

"Yes! This will be fun! But first let's not make anyone notice that we are leaving. A big bad wolf might ruin our bonding , a.k.a your poppa"-I said and held her hand. I popped my head out of the room and see no one outside. I pull her out and we silently went out of the mansion dodging the servants around.

"Opps , where are you going?"-I almost jumped to came face to face with Cobalt just as soon as we went out of the gate

"We're having a girls bonding duh"-I said and pull Anna towards me attempting to passed on Cobalt

"Does the Alpha knows this 'girls bonding' , may I ask?"-he asked. I grunt.

"Of course!-- Not , it's called girls bonding for a reason"-I said

"Then what am I gonna tell the Alpha when I saw them searching for the both of you?"-he asked

"Just act innocently , oh come on stop blocking our way. Don't you see how the kid here is excited to go out for the first time?"-I asked and pointed the innocent looking Anna shifting her gazes from the both of us

"Anna is prohibited to go outside , its a strict order from the Alpha"-he said

"It's not as if I'm gonna let my niece put into trouble"-I said

"We wouldn't know"-he said making me groan

"Oh , just leave us alone. Pretty please??"-I asked showing her my puppy eyes.

"You looked creepy , you know that"-I glare at what he said and pushed Anna in front of him

"Anna , say please to this uncle. With puppy eyes"-I said. Anna looked at me confused and I gave her an example before she looked at Cobalt again.

"Pretty Pwease Uncle~"-she said and copied what I did. I saw Cobalt's face soften in awe. Huh! See no one could resist my niece's charm!

"Again Anna"-I commanded and she did just that

"Urgh! This is torture! Fine I don't see you here , forget we see each other"-he said and murmured it on and on before passing us by , not after pinching Anna's cheek. I high fived Anna and lifted her as we run away from the mansion until it was nowhere to be seen.

- - - - -

"Wow~"

I watched Anna's expression as her big round eyes were wider looking around in awe. Her lips is shaped into an 'o' . We entered a building which was like a mall. Not as big and as great as the mall of the humans but it has a PlayStation , saloons , department stores , fastfoods , food courts , candy shops and toys shops. We just entered the mall and she's already too overwhelmed how much more if we entered the shops?

"Hm.. Let's shop clothes first"-I said pointing the department store. We immediately made our way on the Ladies section. On the next moment I was picking cute clothes for her and myself and we kept on trying it out. In the end I bought clothes for parties and the comfortable one for myself. And I bought her dresses like a princess and other sets of different outfit. We also has a pair coat with the same design and color--- I brought her next to the toys shop and she immediately run around excitedly.

"Wow!! I like that!!"-she said pointing a lifesize barbie. Probably taller than her.

"Okay we'll buy that then"-I said and the sales lady smiled and took it on the display.

"Anything else?"-I asked

"Can I?"-she asked and as soon as I nod she immediately screamed in happiness and we went out of the shop bringing too many paperbags or unicorns and teddy bears.

"Do you need a hand Luna?"-a mall staff asked me

"Can you just send this to the mansion instead?"-I asked

"Of course"

And as soon as we're emptied , I took Anna to the candy shop. We also ate ice cream and pretzels even how cold it is. She is just too curious about those. Then I let her play at the PlayStation and I played with her too. The last stop was the saloon where I get my hair treatment and she did the same. I had a foot spa and manicure and pedicure.

"Tadaaa~"-we both showed or colored nails and chuckled together. She got the pedicure manicure for kids

"Now , it's time to go home"-I said looking at my wrist watch to see it was already 7 pm. We are out of the house for basically seven hours! And I am already featuring Archer's reaction once we reach the mansion , where our shopping bags arrived first earlier than us.

- - - - -

As soon as we reached the gate we also seen Archer going out the house putting his coat on with a grim expression. He looks like he wanna kill anyone at this point. When he saw us he immediately stopped relief pass through his face.

"Poppa"-Anna muttered clutching on the hemn of my dress

"Where the hell have you been!?"- He exclaimed startling Anna and me

"Anna come here"-he said and Anna reluctantly went towards him. He immediately scoop Anna on his arms and hugged her tight with a sigh of relief. While I warily tried to pass them by.

"Don't think you could get away from me woman"-he said making me automatically stopped and flashed him a troubled smile. He put Anna down and told her to go towards her mother's room before he faced me with a deadly expression again after the main door closes. So , that face was meant for me!

"H-hey.."-I reluctantly said , but I couldn't add anything when he advances towards me and grabbed me on the neckline of my dress and pinned me on the door. Shocked take over me.

"What are you doing Archer!?"-I shouted trying to get away from him.

"You know , I don't know what I wanted to do to you right now Aveera , I wanted to slap you , to punch you , to smash you into pieces , you know how it is prohibited to bring Anna outside but still you did it! You could've put her on danger!"-he shouted. Anger was visible on his whole face. His knuckles were white on clenching on my neckline. Veins were popping on his temple in anger.

"I wouldn't put her life on danger for god's sake! Do you really think I'll be careless enough to do that? Don't overreact god! We're just in the mall!"-I exclaimed but I closed my eyes when he punched the door next to my head.

"Why wouldn't I overreact when you took my kid out without permission!?"-I gritted my teeth. I know I had a fault there but I won't admit that. And its not like I did something to trouble us! I made sure not to walk on some dark places without people around. I am not stupid enough to do that.

"Are you done now? Can I go now?"-I asked. He gritted his teeth and tossed me on the ground. I growl at him when I hurt my butt , my neckline was almost ripped.

"Don't ever get near Anna again"-he said

"You're unbelievable!"-I exclaimed standing up

"You are banned on seeing her and vice versa starting from now and that's final"-he said

"That's insane Archer! Don't you feel sorry for her? She's been jailed in her room all day , studying instead of playing like a normal kid!"-I exclaimed

"You are not her mom so you can't decide for her , hear me once more. Remember this , you are just here to be the substitute Luna and not to be my wife and her mother"-he said

"I am not deciding as her mom and I am not acting as your wife too , I just want to be a nice aunt to Anna and make her feel the things you prevented her"-she said

"It's still up to us if we would let it or not cause she is ours"-he said. I glare at him.

"Fine , let's see what will happen then , since I also own myself and I am the substitute Luna now , you can't order me to do something I don't want to , I'll do the duty whenever I want and you , don't ever come to me just to order me to accommodate the pack members and such. I'll go out and do my duty whenever I remember it"-I said and march inside the house , I made sure to slam the door hard too. I glared at the maids who watched my way. And at last when I reached my room I slammed the door close. That jerk!

I never went out of my room since then. I'll snapped at every servant who'll disturb me in my room telling someone's looking for me. I'll also order around servants and punish them if they do not want to obey me. And I know a lot are already against me in this house. Three days passed and I woke up with the too much heat inside the room. My wolf whimper in hotness too and I was tossing back and forth on my bed. I pant hard not able to contain the feeling of arousal. I groan and stand up from my bed and turn the air-conditioner into the turbo level , but it couldn't sustain the heat felt. What date is it?

"Don't tell me it is the 15th?"-I murmured looking my phone that has been with me eversince I got here but I couldn't use since there's no reception. I groan to confirm the date. Fvck! It's the 15th of the month! That's why I'm experiencing the heat. I do not want to go out of the room the whole day cause I might jump on random guys I would meet just to sustain the needs my body.

"Aveera? Are you in there?"

I groan to hear Archer's voice. What does he need? This isnt the right time to see him.

"You have been locking in your room for the whole three days. We needed to talk , don't be stubborn , I'll come in whether you like it or not"-he said. My eyes widen when I heard the doorknob click.

"Don't! Just go away!"-I growl

"Stop being childish Aveera , we have to talk this out!"-he said.

"Some other time!"-I yelled as I clenched the bedsheet , grunting in pain.

"Aveera?"

"Just go the fvxk away!"-I yelled

The most painful day of the month I kept experiencing almost every month is this. As an unclaimed Werewolf , you will keep experiencing it. The only one who could heal the ache away is your mate , but some are doing alternatives like a cold shower or having sex with other men , though that would only ease the pain a little. But in my case I've been in celibacy for seven years already , and as time goes by the heat is becoming more and more unbearable. I tried to stand up and hurried into the bathroom but my body just can't take it. I stumbled on the floor with a loud thud.

"Aveera?!"

That's when I heard the door slammed open.
