The world has already been conquered by the werewolves as they reign supreme whereas humans are forced to live in the slums. Seth Greymound, the current Great Alpha, relentlessly search for his fated mate for twelve DAMN years and hasn't found her until now. While Amala Gaines, a street-smart hustler, cons and deceives as way to provide for her younger half-sister and wishes nothing but for a bright future for her amidst a bleaking future in store for them. Two opposite sides and a border that divides the two races. However, everything changed after a little chase from loan sharks that Amala stepped out of the border to meeting Seth for the first time during the Red Moon ritual. "You are my fated mate, Amala Gaines," he says. "And you can't escape destiny that brought you to me."
View MoreAMALAMy cheeks turned bright red after being caught not only eavesdropping on other wolves but also checking him out like he was some kind of rare fine specimen.That is, he is truly a sight to see.Yet, he doesn’t beat around the bush as he says, “I’m Damien, one of the Omegas here, it is an honor to be graced by your presence, Future Luna.""O-omega?" Startled, I examine him once more. "Are you sure you are an Omega?"According to my lessons, wolves' rank and prestige define their looks…well, mostly about their beauty. So, it is hard to believe with those looks, he should be more of an Alpha!"Ah, I get that a lot but I was born from a normal omega gardener and a female human. That's where I got her looks from. You heard them calling me a hybrid, right?""Ah…right." The heat on my cheeks hasn't faded away as I keep embarrassing myself to this stranger. "My name is Amala Gaines, soon-to-be Luna. Err…Shouldn't be here? I mean this place is off-limits.""Oh, that?" He chuckles and the
AMALAOnce I’ve introduced myself to almost every important member of the Greymound pack, I head outside and head straight to the rose garden next to the hotel. Seth is stuck with wolves sucking up to him with their flowery compliments and I feel like his lip twitch from the unnerving swarming wolves near in his personal bubble.Well, it is perfect timing for me to sneak away from the attention so I can take a huge breather.Once I reach the rose garden, I'm awed at the sight of the scenery. The large moon above becomes a beacon of light to the abandoned rose garden, giving a natural lighting to the sight of the dark red roses.It’s conveniently abandoned in huge contrast to the Avenue square where everyone is partying. I can still hear the chatter from a distance. As I step inside and continue looking around, giving an appreciative view on this place. It’s like I’m Alice in Wonderland, curious and eager in a new world.Krieg’s words suddenly come to my mind and I regret thinking abo
AMALAJust like that, everyone is having a huge feast, drinking together in the finest wine. Forget the animosity they had earlier, the ambience changed from somber to joy when Finrel offered food and drinks to every attendee. Once they were busying themselves with food and liquor, the female omegas brought me to the room at a nearby luxurious hotel. "The Alpha wants you to wear this dress, Future Luna," says one of the women. Before me lies a long rose gold overskirt dress which reaches until the floor. On its dummy, I can see a matching color of the rhinestone crystal headband. "Beautiful." A word slips through my lips as I am mesmerized by the beauty of this dress.Not even once have I seen human girls wearing this fancy get-up in a lifetime. This truly defines how far our statuses are between wolf and human."Hello, Future Luna, I will be handling your hair and my assistants for your make-up." Another female wolf enters the room who looks like she's in her mid-40s. "S-sure.
AMALA= The Announcement Day = The moon hangs low in the dark violet sky, casting a silver glow over the Square Avenue—the center of the main city where all the wolves of the Greymound pack have been gathered for this important event.Or more likely they are unwilling to, seeing their begrudging looks when their eyes center on me, the “star” of this evening.But I’m not surprised with those stares: I would be damned to see an inferior being ruling over them if I were in their shoes. So, I have already braced myself for this coming day. Now, standing at the center of the square where the podium is, despite my readiness of this prejudice, I can still feel the shiver running down my spine for this momentous announcement.I still keep my poker face yet within my thoughts, I am beyond agitated because all I want is to get over this and be done with all of these werewolf bull crap.I glance at Seth who hasn’t spoken to me even once and I silently hope my “impatience” can reach his strong
AMALA Finrel gives a rare expression of his bewilderment. "What? There's n-no way that I–" "Whatever excuses you say, your voice and your expression give away," I continue as I gulp juice. "By the way, is this natural pulp orange? We don't have that there at the border."He shakes his head. "H-how did you know?" His mind is still focused on the part when I caught him in the act."I was a thespian before I started hustling for money. Observing people is fundamental for the Stanislavski method.""Stanis–what?" He continues shaking his head. "Never mind. I don't need to know."He stands up as he starts pacing back and forth. "So, is it because I was too obvious? What should I do?""Calm down, Finrel." I pat his shoulder. "You are consistent in keeping that poker face of yours, Finrel. You don't have to worry about being caught. I mean…why are you worried especially now that Marie is single?"He sighs, returns to his seat as he plops back there. His back bends awkwardly as his large ha
AMALAIt's been three days since I've agreed to do the training. As long as Finrel is physically present to prevent Marie from sabotaging the preparation, I can continue doing this without any worries.However…“Splendid, Amala! You did great!” Marie fakes her applause after I demonstrate the perfect kneel. According to them, this kneel is essential the moment the Alpha will make a declaration for the whole pack to hear.If anything, the pose is easy for me, given my street performing background.At the corner of the room, Finrel looks amused after witnessing my pose but seeing that he has been quiet the entire time, he decides to continue observing us from the sideline.At the back of my mind, I hope he won’t sneak out while we’re doing this. Because I see that Marie is behaving well today.Surprisingly so."Is that all I need to do during the ceremony?" I ask while wiping the sweat from my
FINRELIf there is one word to describe my mood, It's irritation.My feet nearly stomp-march their way back to the living room and stop as soon as I see Seth knotting a red tie around his neck while facing the mirror.He glances sideways after acknowledging my presence."Have you at least told Amala for this Friday?""Yes, sir." I clear my throat as I don't like giving out more bad news to the Alpha. "But just as the former Luna said, Miss Gaines doesn't fully take her new role seriously."He turns to me and his nostrils twitch as my emotions are unveiled from my scent."You reek of anger, Finrel."I should say the same thing to you, I thought.Yet, I won't dare to answer. Our earlier interaction won't have an impact if I contradict myself now.Let's say, I am beyond infuriated but at the same time respected the human who doesn't want to let fear overtake her by the sight of Seth Grey
AMALA"Miss Gaines, open the door.""Go away, Finrel!" I bellow as I wrap my arms around Amy. Her eyes peek through my arms with utmost curiosity. "If it is about your Alpha, I don't want to talk about it!""But you're being unreasonable.""Unreasonable?" I scoff as I glare at the door where Finrel is standing outside. "Tell Seth he was the unreasonable one for lying!"“The Alpha is just…he—” He stumbles a bit.“Even you can’t defend him this time, Finrel!”A loud sigh is heard from the other side as he says, "I just want to let you know that the Alpha will make a formal introduction of you as his new Luna to the pack. If you are going to stay here longer, I would advise that you should be at least physically present in order to be taken seriously."What? I couldn't believe what I heard! I let go of Amy, who is confused with the events happening today and head to the door.
SETH“AMALA! GET BACK HERE!” I roar out loud, hoping her retreating figure will flinch and return. But it only encourages her to run as far away from me. I sigh as I return back to the room and slump on my chair. "Is something wrong with Miss Gaines, sir?” Finrel asks with caution and I don’t blame him. As my blood boiled from the earlier events and anyone could sense it a mile away. I swiftly glare at him and he flinches, yet he still enters the room. "I don't understand humans," I reply despite my frustration as my hand runs around my tousled dark hair. “Forget it. So, what did you say earlier, Finrel?” "Ah, right. Mr. Bates has called to meet you later, sir."I sigh. I am not in the mood to see him. "Is it still about his illegitimate child?" "He said it is business-related." It better be about business, Richard, I thought to myself. "I'll see him later in my office.""Understood."He swiftly turns back to leave the room but a thought suddenly comes to him, he stops his tr
AMALA “After her!” On cue, running sounds reverberate the cracked pavement of the Red Light District. My breathing becomes erratic, my heart could almost burst out of my chest any moment and my feet are getting numb from this endless cat and mouse chase. Yet, I continue running as fast as I can, ignoring my consciousness slowly slipping away. I couldn't care less about my condition if it meant I could avoid getting caught by these loan sharks. Loan sharks whom my mother borrowed before she killed herself. And as her living descendant, I’m forced to hide myself until I pay every penny she borrowed from them. And right now, I still haven’t reached that amount yet. If they catch me, what will happen next? Who knows if they will sell me off to the wolves? Or worse… These pessimistic thoughts only motivate me to stay focused. But the gap hasn't decreased since the start of this run and if I falter, they will definitely capture me. I just need a diversion, like a sea of crowds o...
