Chapter 123: Refined Woman
Giselle’s POV
I sat on the balcony, the warm afternoon sun dappling on my face as I bent over my sketchpad.
A small smile played on my lips as I delicately guided the paintbrush across the paper, coaxing the vibrant hues of a delicate orchid to life.
With each gentle stroke, the petals unfurled on the page, their delicate leaves and subtle gradient of colour emerging under my skilled touch.
I lost myself in the rhythm of my movements, the brush dancing across the surface, creating a serene and beautiful image.
But as time passed by, my smile slowly faded, replaced by a furrowed brow and a growing sense of dissatisfaction.
With a frustrated huff, I pressed the bristles of the brush against the paper, covering the entire drawing with black pigment.
“Luna, it was so beautiful. Why did you stop?” The omega beside me asked, who was also one of my attendants.
“I don’t like it. It doesn’t look like an orchid at all. It looks like I am drawing chives,” I rolled my eyes as I sat back on my chair with disappointment.
“That’s not true. I wasn’t thinking of chives while you were drawing at all. I haven’t seen anyone who can paint as good as you in this Packhouse, Luna,” the omega replied.
“Of course, you would appreciate such a lousy drawing. For an omega like you, how could you possibly appreciate the great arts when you have never even seen them,” I raised an eyebrow in annoyance.
“That’s true, Luna, but not even Astrid could draw a perfect circle even if she wanted to.”
My eyes turned to her in interest.
“Astrid is nothing like you, Luna. She could beat a man to death, but she could never draw with her wobbly hands, and she could never dance with her stiff figure,” she told me with confidence.
“Is that so?” I asked her as a small smile threatened to form on my face.
“Of course, Luna! I’m sincerely telling the truth. Astrid is more like a man. Not only that, but I also heard that scars filled her body because of her job and her training. It’s truly no wonder why Killian was never attracted to her.”
Tlaughed at her words with a fan pressed to my mouth. “Of course, Killian won’t be attracted to someone that as manly as him. Maybe he is disgusted with her body; that’s why he never shared a room with her.”
I sighed. “Oh, poor guy. Luckily, I came back for him, or he would never had anyone to release his hidden desires with.
“It’s true, Luna; everyone felt bad for Alpha Killian because Astrid ended up as his mate. Even the Elder
Luna was heartbroken for her son. There wasn’t a day she never felt bad for her son.”

My eyebrows bent downwards. “I can’t imagine how hard it was for Mother,” I replied in pety
Mother, that’s what I call Killian’s mother.
“You, on the other hand, Luna, are filled with grace and poise. You are a refined woman blessed with talent and beauty. I was so mesmerized by your drawing earlier. I couldn’t wait to discover more of yo talents.”
I softly chuckled, tickled by her praises and compliments. “When I was young, I used to dance in public. and people say that I’ma good singer too,” I spoke with a pleased smile on my face. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Her mouth fell open in awe. “I can’t believe such a perfect woman really exists. You already won Alpha Killian’s heart by your beauty alone; you don’t even need that talent anymore because of your natural beauty.”
I chuckled at her words again, feeling flattered by my content. “Oh, stop it! It’s only because I take care of my own skin that I never had scars. I don’t do man jobs. That’s why I don’t tan, and I don’t grow a muscular build.”
She laughed at my words.
“If Killian fell in love with my beauty, then I’m sure he would never let me go again if he found out about my talents.”
“Luna! Luna!” One of my attendants rushed in with excitement written all over her face.
“What is it again?” I asked her in annoyance.
“I have some news from the Nightsong Pack,” she answered with a wide, infectious grin spread across
her face.
“What is it again?” I rolled my eyes.
Recently, all I’ve heard from their Pack was bad news. It was said that the Nightsong Pack had just
ed an alliance with the Shadowfang Pack, which was hard to believe.
Now, everyone that I have already made to turn against them is desperate to connect with them. All my efforts were completely put to waste because the Shadowfang Pack stepped in to help them. Until now, I’m still wondering why they finally decided to meddle with us just now. They have been perfectly fine keeping their silence and isolating themselves from our matters. Why did they suddenly change their minds?
My brows furrowed in puzzled contemplation as I mulled it over. Of all the Packs, why would they form an alliance with the Nightsong Pack, which was already on the brink of destruction? Why would they even save Astrid, a worthless omega, from dying?
If the Shadowfang Pack didn’t step in, Astrid would be dead, and the Nightsong Pack would finally be gone, just like what I wanted.
The Shadowfang Pack ruined all my plans. They took the victory that was almost in my hands, and they even added to my problem.
