Chapter 7

   The man kept staring at me like I don't know what I just said. He kept looking at the me then later at the table because he couldn't stand my cold gaze.

   "She is human, sir" he said.

  Apex got slightly offended and a low growl escaped my lips. It's obvious my eyes color would have changed because he became visibly tensed and held his hands together on the table.

   "I don't mean it that way, Alpha" he said "What I mean is she is human and she might not understand what we do" he explained.

  Immediately I felt sense in what he said, like I can't just tell her that I am a werewolf. I imagine myself telling her that I am the Alpha laugh it out like a cold joke.

  Since she was little, I had been stalking her. I know it sucks but that's the only thing I can do to make sure she is in a perfect shape. I had to even work at her high school just to make sure I protect her from her bullies and when she began to become too attached with me, I compelled her to forget me again.

   "That's through" I said in agreement.

My head raised up to sight over his shoulders and I saw two wolves walking in. Although they might not be from my park but I can't afford them seeing me now especially when I don't know if they are from my brothers.

   The way they stinks means only one thing, means that they are rogues and that makes me want to snap their necks immediately. With the short wave of my right hand, I dismissed our smell from the air. No matter how strong or gifted their smelling ability is, they can never get to know the I am a wolf too.

   "So it's true?" The man gasped, he moved closer and grinned from ear to ear "The moon goddess never lied about the magic of a thing" he said.

   No matter how used I am to see people surprised on how I can control things, i hate it when they just realize i can perform magic for the first  time. Some would want me to do it again, and that's how I got rich.

   I charge the huge amount of money, compel them to forget and raised up an empire of my own. Now I am the CEO of my company.

    The fate that there was no body else eating at that moment makes it seems like a good coincidence. At least we can say things without issue of being heard.

   "How did you know about me?" I asked dryly.

   The amused expression vanished from his face as it got replaced with some sort of seriousness I had no idea anyone can possess.

   "I hate the fate that our park had to be rules by rogues and we have to do things we are not supposed to do" he started "About two years ago, my sister was forcefully taken by one of the rogue kings and he married her when she is not his mate" he stopped for a momemt to take deep breaths.

   The sadness in his voice broke my heart and I want to deeply console him but there was nothing I could at that moment. The part where he said rogue kings seems strange as I crooked my brows and moved closer.

    "Rogue kings?" I said loudly.

  "Yes" he replied "After you left as a youth"I looked over his shoulders as if trying to watch his back "Our Park expanded so much and got divided into four parts. These for parts are where your brothers rule today as the rogue kings" he explained.

   I was about looking over his shoulders when I noticed the rogues that had entered before moved closer to us. They kept staring at my wrist and I remembered that I didn't roll down the sleeves and that's another issue for me. I know they would want to go tell about finding the real Alpha but I can not let that happen.

   Seconds ago I was sitting in front of a man I still don't know his name and the next one I have telepathed myself to stand in front of the rogues. I stared deeply into their eyes and tried ro read their thoughts but something was blocking it then I knew what might have happened.

   It could be that they have been claimed by people from the royal family or work for the royals and the royals knows better so they covered there thoughts.

   The smirk on their faces shows that they already know what I tried to do and that I failed. Their eyes began to shine yellow mixed with gold and I know that are about to shift to their wolf form.

  "You know I can still compel you to tell me all that you know" I said angrily as I stared at their faced and grinned "Forget about everything that happened today" the said angrily.

    Immediately I got back to my seat, I noticed the man smiling widely as he watch the rogues walk out the place like zombies.

  "I know" I said dry as he looked back at me "The moon goddess taught you well"  I said what he had in mind.

   Since he is not claimed by anyone and just a delta training, I can easily access his mind. The fact alone that I said his mind made him more happier and he wants to literally mind link someone immediately.

   "Don't do it" I said harshly and immediately he complied.

  

     "My name is Xander" he said "I am Xander AN Raul at your service" he grinned.

   I think I will enjoy his services as my wolf already like him. His grins alone would make you want to slam his head on a steel table in a cheerful way.

   "Why hasn't Mira returned with my coffee" I wondered as I looked around ro find her.

    At first I thought she might still be making it until I saw her staring at me in the spot I had telepathed from. It's obvious she saw what happened but is too scared to believe or talk about it.

   "Chill" Apex said "she will think that it's one of her imagination" he teased.

   Although I felt the same thing but I can't just let her stay traumatized that she is not a normal person when she is supernatural. I hate the fact that she have to take those useless pills and I wish I can tell her who she is.

   I wish I can tell her that she is the soon Luna to be and that's why she is seeing things.

   The truth is that I don't really understand how she does what every she says she sees at times or how she froze the coffee jar. Deep down I think I know her but I can't tell anything about except how beautiful and hard working she is.

    "Should I compel her to forget?" Immediately I said the last word, I heard glass break and I turned to see that she had broken my coffee cup "What do you think?" I asked Xander in worry.

   A calm smile Spread across his face as he stood up and walked to her.

   "Don't worry Alpha, I will handle it" he said as he walked to her.

    I was about thinking of every possible thing he would think of until I heard his cheerful laugh.

   "Oh Miranda!" He exclaimed "Are you okay?" He held her hand and lead her out the broken bottle "You are day dreaming again!" He said sadly "You need to go have a rest, you can go home" he said "James and i would cover up your shift for you"

   The look on her red face seems purely embarrassed. It's obvious that she believes what Xander said and it hurts me so much but I have to let go.
