Nora's POV

My heart thudded heavily like a tribal drum, as Chester led me out of Alpha Jacob's pack house. I could not help but feel the weight of several gazes from the guests upon us. The curious eyes of the pack members bore into me, and a blush of embarrassment crept up my cheeks. I could hear their whispees trailing me like poison, their silent accusations and wary expressions.

They were probably judging me right now, I thought. They most likely thought I was cursed for two different men, alphas for that matter, to throw hands against each other because of me.

I knew what they were thinking – that I had somehow caused this confrontation between the two Alphas. It felt as if every event I attended was destined to be disrupted simply because I was there.

My thoughts drifted to the poisoned food at my coronation ceremony. How could I forget that single event that had left our pack house in disarray for days? It had taken weeks to fully recover from the chaos that unfolded that night

    Alina's POVWhen I stormed into the house, it felt as though my frustration and irritation was spilling out with every step I took. The door swung shut behind me, and the commotion drew the attention of my parents, who were sitting at the dining table. My parents were still staring at me with the identical perturbed looks on their faces. I could see the confusion on my father's face slowly turning to anger."You went out this evening in such a hurry. Now you are storming in with a look to kill on your face. Care to explain?" He growled.I sighed, trying to control myself. However, my mother's words cut through my reverie."Why are you in such a hurry, Alina?" she asked, her eyes filled with concern.I stopped in my tracks, feeling a rush of anger and disappointment flood over me. Nora, as always, was at the center of everything, completely stealing the air from my lungs and the joy from my heart. I didn't know how to compete, how to escape the shadow of her existence. And the though

    Nora's POVA minute later, Chester led me into his room. He laid me down on his bed, the white down comforter absorbing my body. Leaning up and resting on my elbows, I watched as he pulled his shirt over his head. His broad shoulders and that perfectly crafted chest came into view. My eyes lingered on the sprinkling of dark hair on his chest, knowing how good it would feel against my own breasts.I realized my satisfaction wouldn’t be complete until I had him inside him. Until he was on top of me, that hard body resting above mine.He pulled off his boots and I saw that I was still putting on my own shoes. I shifted to remove them.He knelt on the bed before me, and before he could move farther, I leaned forward and grasped his hard length in my hand. My gaze lifted to his, searching for his reaction, and finding the heat I sought.I yearned to explore the effect I might have on him, but his hand came down over mine. “As much as I like you touching me, Peach, I need to be inside you r

    Nora's POV Chester wasn't convinced. He reached across the table and gently took my hand in his, his thumb rubbing comforting circles on my skin. "You know you can tell me anything, right?" he said softly.I nodded, feeling grateful for his understanding. "I know, Chester. It's just... a passing phase, I hope. I am fine, really."I picked up a fork and attempted to eat some of the breakfast that had been laid out for us. But to my dismay, it tasted like wet cardboard in my mouth. I couldn't bring myself to swallow a single bite. Frustration crept over me as I placed the fork down with an annoyed sigh.Chester watched me closely, his concern deepening. "Nora, you hardly touched your food," he remarked.I bit my lip and shook my head, not wanting to complain about the bizarre taste in my mouth. "I guess I'm just not that hungry," I said, trying to sound nonchalant.Chester's brow furrowed further, and his expression grew even more worried. "Nora," he said softly, "if something's bother

    Nora's POVThe pain swam through my body like a relentless wave, leaving no part untouched. It was as if a thousand icy fingers of agony wrapped around my every nerve and muscle, and I felt their bitter grip tighten with each passing moment.My lower abdomen ached with a dull, persistent throb that refused to be ignored. It was a heavy, gnawing pain that sent discomfort radiating through my core. With each pulsation, it seemed to drag me further into its wicked embrace, making me feel weighed down and helpless.I hated feeling like this: weak, useless and disconnected from my world. I hated the feeling of helplessness more than ever, because this was the very same way I had felt in that slave establishment.The same way I had felt with dozens of gazes on my naked body. The same way I'd felt when I had been peddled as a mere slave to the highest bidder.The same way I had felt when Chester had bought me and taken me back home.As though I didn't have any control over my life.But the

The weight of her stillness pressed down, not just on my arm, but on my entire body. It felt as though my world was crumbling around me.I couldn't bear to see her like this, so vulnerable and fragile, her usual vitality and spirit stripped away. I watched as her pale eyelids fluttered with little life, the translucent skin full of tiny green veins.The room seemed to close in on me, the walls suffocating and the air heavy with dread. My Luna, my beloved Nora, was slipping away from me, and there was nothing I could do to stop it.With trembling hands, I brushed a strand of hair from her pale face, praying for a sign, any other sign that she was still with me. I could hardly breathe as I watched for the slightest movement, any indication that she was going to wake up.Time passed in agonizing slowness, and my mind was filled with tormenting thoug

    Chester's POVI returned to the room where Nora lay, still sleeping. As I gazed upon her peaceful face, my heart swelled with joy and relief.

    Jacob's POVWhen my personal adviser walked into the throne room, it was to find me in the lowest of spirits.I paced restlessly in the throne room, my agitation at its very peak. The atmosphere was heavy with the turmoil in my mind. My personal adviser, stopped and watched me with concern, his eyes filled with anxiety and concern for my well-being. He'd seen me like this on more than one occasion, but this time, he knew my anger and frustration were particularly intense."Alpha Jacob, you must calm yourself," my personal adviser urged, his voice gentle and persuasive. "Losing your composure will not serve you well."I stopped pacing and turned to face Hiram, my brows furrowed in frustration. "I cannot calm down, Hiram," I said through gritted teeth. "I just cannot. This is unacceptable!"I heard a sigh come from behind me as my adviser spoke up. "What happened this time, Alpha?"I swivelled to face him. "You saw the disrespect Chester showed me at the ball, did you not? It is absolut

I remembered the look of satisfaction I had seen on his face, as I had cried and groveled at his feet on that fateful day, when he'd thrown me out of his house.But the wheels had turned now. He was in my shoes now, and I would make sure he experienced the pain I had gone through as well.Or even worse.I understood that I was not his daughter, but what I did not understand was how I came to be in his house in the first place. How had I escaped the massacre that Jacob had done on my family, and how had I gotten to this vile man's household?However, all that was pushed to the back of my mind as I watched a fleeting look of fear pass across his face."Nora?"

I could not believe my eyes. Was I dreaming? Was the alcohol finally kicking in and I was imagining things?"Nora...." I whispered again. She smiled as I called her name. Oh, that smile. How I had missed it so much!I felt my wolf jump in excitement before me. In the space of a few seconds, my eyes cleared, and I saw Nora standing before me, live and in person."I'm here, Chester." She whispered. I watched as a tear fell from her eyes, and something within me shattered into a million pieces. I stumbled forward, kicking my goblet aside. Finally, reaching before her, I stopped again."What are you doing...." I stammered. "Why are you here? Where have you been?"A million questions and more chased each other in my head. Nora's smile fell for a moment. "It is a long story, Ch

The moon was high in the sky by now, and I guessed that it was midnight already.On and on I walked, until finally, I got to the river that divided Moon Gold Pack from Wolf Claw Pack. I felt a tugging in my heart, and Chester immediately came to mind.Even though we were estranged from each other, I still missed him terribly. How I craved for the little moments that we'd shared. It was appalling how, in the space of a few months, this man whom I had hated with every passionate bone in me, had slowly grown to become an integral part of my life.I still hadn't forgiven him for pushing me out of his pack all those weeks. I still hadn't forgiven him for thinking the worst of me, but deep down, I could not deny that I missed my fated mate.I stopped in front of the river, contemplating how to cross to the other side. The bridge that would have helped me was broken, and the only

    Nora's POVThe moment I confirmed that he was dead, I slowly rose to my feet. I kept my eyes on him all through, half expecting him to open his eyes and stare right through me.I waited for a few seconds, but it felt like several eternities. I had to make it look as though he wasn't truly dead.Crouching beside him, I placed both hands underneath his armpits and lifted him up. He was extremely heavy, the brute of a man!Wuth several grunts and heaving, I placed him on the bed. Finally, I stared at hid unmoving body and smiled to myself. If only he knew that I would be his undoing, he would not have taken a liking to me, would he?I rearranged his clothes, placing a folded piece of cloth against his neck to hide the gaping hole in there. I arranged his hands around him to give off the impression that he was asleep, then I took several steps backwards.Perfect, I thought. Save for the unusual paleness of his skin, he truly looked like he was fast asleep.Suddenly, I heard several steps

    Nora's POVMy eyes caught a platter of cut apples, lying on a table by my side. Right beside the platter was a small, sheathed dagger.I narrowed my eyes as curiosity got the better of me. Slowly, I laid down the picture frame in my hands, then reached out to pick up the dagger. I pulled the dagger out of its scabbard and turned it in my hands, momentarily awed as it caught the sunlight at almost impossible angles. I immediately knew it was made of dragonblade, one of the strongest steels known to werewolves.The hilt was studded with several tiny rubies, but was built of pure, solid gold. On the hilt was emblazoned the initials Y.L; this dagger once belonged to my mother. It gave me a tiny comfort to know that I was holding something that once belonged to one of my parents."Hmm..." I murmured, sizing the dagger up against my hand. It was very small: not nearly as big as my entire hand, but sharp enough to do damage.I smiled to myself, a sinister fire burning within me.

I knew that we would immediately be taken to Alpha Jacob, and there was no questioning what he would do to us to punish us."Oh, we're done for!" Sarah wailed, quite loudly."Oh, keep your voice low!" I snapped. "Let's leave before they notice people are here." I pulled her hand as we scurried towards the door.But as Sarah and I hurried toward the exit, we found ourselves face-to-face with the guards already inside the dimly lit Black Door Room. In a quick decision, we stood perfectly still, hoping the shadows would conceal our presence.Pressing ourselves against the darkened corner, I held my breath, praying that the guards wouldn't notice us. Their looming silhouettes moved through the room, their voices echoing in the hushed space."Why's this door open?" one guard's inquiry reverberated in the chamber's silence. We h

    Nora's POV.As I dressed up, I kept my mind resolute on the fact that I would find that door, whether Sarah helped me out or not. Julius' words kept ringing in my ears, giving me the courage I desperately needed.Sarah fetched a simple gray dress from a chest on the far end of the room—it was obvious that Alpha Jacob had stocked this room full of dresses for me, in case I happened to change my mind about marrying him."Here, Luna Nora," she murmured as she handed me the dress. Her eyes were averted, head downcast. I knew, deep down that Sarah wanted to help, but she was scared of the consequences that would follow if someone found out.I couldn't blame her. If I was in her shoes, I would be scared too."Thank you, Sarah." I murmured, accepting the gray dress. I slipped it on and fastened the buttons myself. Then I turned back to her. "Do you have a black cloak anywhere around this room?""Um...yes." Sarah replied. "Alpha Jacob's former wife used to keep one for special occasions, whe

Alpha Jacob asked, his voice laced with a hint of disbelief. "You've changed your mind?"No! My heart screamed. But I met his gaze firmly. "Yes," I replied, my voice resolute.A smile, bright and triumphant, crept onto Alpha Jacob's face, illuminating his features. He motioned to his guards. "Let her out!" He ordered, then cackled like a witch. "She is to be my wife! Finally, my dear Nora is to be my wife and Luna!"As the heavy metal door creaked open and the guards escorted me out, a whole storm of conflicting emotions engulfed me. My heart still ached for Julius, who had selflessly guided and supported me. I felt the weight of my failure to rescue him in his darkest hour.He had helped me throughout my stay in the dungeons. And now, when he needed my help the most, I was utterly powerless to help him.Walking a

And now, I was facing the next hurdle in my journey head on.I was going to face the one man who had made my life a total, living hell."Do you think the guards would listen to me and tell Alpha Jacob about my offer?"
