50. He doesn't have to be merciful any more!
Alpha Alan sat in the bathing pool under cold water. His eyes were staring nowhere in the dark room illuminating under the creeping rays of morning brightness while a part of him— A small tiny and insensible part of him shuddered at how he was treating his ever so kind and always available mistress.
'That's how a mistress is used!' But again, that voice of his demon interrupted his thoughts and slayed that tiny part inside him.
He doesn't have to be merciful. He tried being one and tasted what it was to give him by the one he assumed deserved all of him. But nope, she only meant to use him. Used him like an object and then tossed him away.
Now the alpha was certain of being heartless and not letting anyone play with his feelings like HER. Like that bi*ch with an innocent facade and a heart of a witch.
It was so very
Ugh... I hate his cold behaviour. Don't we miss our kind Alpha? Well thanks to Lisa... She just changed his character from humble to horrible. Huh. Let's see more in the upcoming episodes. Lysm. Stay safe and enjoy your life~~
51. Terminating the mistress! While the alpha was still processing her words in his brain, she helped Adrian sit straight and cleaned the trail of blood from his forehead. She sniffed and her sobs echoed like an irritating tune in his ears. "Jenny, don't! Don't take the blame on your head. It was me who went to look for Lisa. I was worried for her." Though every part of his body was bathing in a scorching boiling pool of anguishing water, Beta Adrian eyed her to back off. This was a dirty game. The alpha was not in his senses. She should not be coming into the field of war when he was slitting throats like a vulgar barbarian. Adrian kept that in mind. He slowly put his hand around the back of her palm as he directed to remove them from his cheeks. "Do not lie for me, Beta Adrian. Please." She uttered in a vibrating tone but she didn't budge for she knew he was required to stay by the alpha
52. 'What have I done to ourselves?' Alpha Alan moved with a dreadful aura like a tornado during the evening amidst an enthralling shower. The servants hid themselves either this or that way behind poles, near curtains or for that matter feigned as if work had occupied them in order to avoid catching his gaze. Because they knew that if they caught the alpha's eyes, they would not be able to see the next morning— on a good term. Alan comprehensively walked through the passageway and to his room as he himself didn't give a shit how his people were fretting from his presence. He just didn't mind it. As if the world didn't exist for him. His sorrows were all that he cared about. Anyways, unaware of the storm he was going to witness in his room as Alpha Alan pushed the door of his room open and set his right foot within, he observed something being thrown just at his feet. When he lifted his eyes to see wh
53. Damsel in distress! "Julian!!!" Sebestian, bleeding from the forehead and tied in thick rusty iron chains in a wall right opposite to where Lisa was being physically hurt, thundered. He was weak and starving for days. They would only provide him food once in five days and that was also nothing but some stale sticky rice with lots of chilli flakes garnishing it. He had refused consuming it earlier but his wolf could not persist the torture of hunger, hence he relinquished. He was anyway surviving, battling to keep up with the tortures that were being inflicted on him and bear all that they effused on him— until Lisa was caught. When he heard that his sister was brought back, he felt blood draining his body since he feared all that these bastards would inflict on her. And his fear was genuine though. Watching her after months of escape hitched his breaths and stopped his
54. Broken princess and her helpless brother "She has taken you as her saviour always, Jeremy. Be one now. Ask your twin to stop." It was not easy yet Sebestian collected himself and sat on his knees. His head bowing in yield as eyes begged— just like how a helpless brother should be. "Stop him, please. You know she doesn't deserve this. Ask him to get away, Jeremy. Please." He restlessly rocked back and forth, his veins popping up adamantly on his neck and arms. The look of his feature was bothersome and the stale blue marks of wounds, imposed by lashing and hot iron rods grazing his flesh, all over his torso made him look even worse. You can say he was nearly dead, just that his soul lingered stubborn, refusing to leave the body. Jeremy, without uttering a word or distracting his glance away from Julian, heaved a sigh and announced, "You had your share of pla
55. Guilty alpha and his restlessness Dusky clouds of the night hung as a veil against a crescent moon, concealing it in its shadow. It was unusually silent tonight. The owls, insects and every creature that occurs out of nature at night hid themselves in the nests. As if refraining themselves from emerging out. While out there the moon remained suspended partially covered, inside his chambers Alpha Alan twisted and turned in his bed. Sleep was far away from his eyes. It's not that he had not caught a wink of sleep. It was just that a shuddering nightmare fragmented his slumber in the earliest hours of darkness, waking him up, panting badly and sweating like he recently had a bath. The nightmare contained her. Lisa. He watched her getting tormented. Humiliated. Hurt. She was being dragged naked in his nightmare on the streets of her pack he never visited physically. Her skin was seen being
56. Reconciliation between the best friend Adrian knew it! He so knew that it was something to do with Lisa. Excitement filled him more than astonishment once Alan narrated the whole tale to him. He was unable to come out of the spell of excitement as Alpha Alan told him about Lisa being a moonborn. Yeah, a moonborn. The term itself caught him aghast let alone the fact that she was in love with her cousin. Anyone could be if what Alan described about Jeremy was one bit true. She grew up with him and developed a soft corner for him. It was no big deal. This was not new. Moonborns enjoyed loving whoever they cherished. Lisa did too, and she also left with him to her pack where her people were waiting for her. Exactly this is what Adrian attempted to explain to him nonetheless the torn cloak and the condition in which he found Lisa's bag made him think thrice befo
57. A bitter prophecy "You saw my dreams too?" Stunned at the perception, Alan's eyelids enlarged as he leaned forward, thrilled. The old diviner acknowledged with a single nod of his head, looking through the desired page he wanted to glance at, in the tome. "You got to see a glimpse of the whole dreadful event that is about to take place on the full moon night, Alpha. Which is why I had been expecting you today so I could let you know the truth you are unaware of." "What kind of truth?" He asked, lingering on the edge of his seat. Adrian received a shivery stare from his Alpha friend that depicted more of his anxiety and remorse. 'It's okay, just stay put and listen to him carefully.' He assured Alan of his support and beamed nervously. Not in abundance but it did help the Alpha's throbb
58. You are a silver knight, Alpha. "What do you mean that it was not real? I literally saw her getting... Getting.. Damn it!" His voice hid somewhere in his throat. Alan can't put that scenario into a verbal description. Anger clenched his fingers into balls. Alan immediately drew him away from the oracle not wanting to effuse his wrath on him. He went to the window and glared outside, hoping for the cool morning breeze to chill his exasperation down. His eyes burned. His nails dig into his palm. That image of her being under the immoral hold of so many men distressed him. Nevertheless, he did not let tears well up. Alpha didn't allow his weaknesses out. Getting handicap at the moment was the last thing he wished to transpire. In spite of controlling himself to not to, tears made ways below his eyes. Falling one by one, in a series of silver trails. He was str
(LAST) Lisa retired to Alan— correction, their room now, in the middle of the feast as she could not control her emotions any longer. He had scared her to suppress her tears but now she wanted to pour them out. Stopping them was making her feel sick. Having come back to the room, she locked the door and threw herself on the bed. He was bad. She dug her face in the pillow crying her heart out as she thought about him. He didn't make her feel good at all. Even during the feast, for whatever time she stayed down there, he ignored her. He didn't hold her hand when he was introducing her as Luna. Alan didn't even shower her with a gaze of love when the oracles put around her shoulders the cloak of Luna and put the crown on her head. He was such a bad mate. Thinking about what happened she was weeping in the pillow when from the window, Alpha Alan entered.
77. She was making him fall in love with herself harder and harder. Putting the curtains back, she came back to bed and settled on it. Her eyes burned but she didn't let tears spill. She was marked. She was accepted. She was taken as the Alpha's Moonborn mate. Nevertheless, she was still not wanted. At least that is how it was seeming to her given that he didn't come to check upon her even for once post that one meet before his leave. After he returned, she tried to hug him but he refrained her from doing so. The guests he's bought with himself were more important to him because rather than consoling her restlessness, he escorted them inside the castle while she was left there with a petrified Adrian who was lost in his own predicament. He played matchmaker for his beta as well as her brother but ignored his own mate. He ignored her. Having saved her from killing herself, he
76. Waiting for him restlessly The rest of the day Lisa spent waiting for Alan. He'd promised to come to her once his undone work was finished but there was still no sign of him. She was fine now. Thanks to the healers for giving her medicines that worked quickly, boosting her recovery. Since she was a Moonborn and now satisfied with her life for being marked, her wolf worked upon helping heal her. The fever was gone. Her weakness too. Lisa relished the day going around the huge castle with Jenny. Initially, her nerves tensed up when Jenny came to see Lisa in Alan's chambers. But her disclosure of not being his mistress anymore made Lisa sweep on the bed in relief. Since she was not his mistress any more but a close friend, she developed a friendly bond with Jenny within no time. The two of them moved around the castle with Sebestian joining them at a moment. He was hap
75She was marked by him.***Her smile was widening. She failed in life as a princess, she was going to win as an individual.This death was not really a defeat but her victory over her agonies she bore and a rejection she got despite being Moonborn.The cold water really put her mind off. What could be better than sucking some water in her lungs and ending it without much pain? Lisa left her hands loose and parted her mouth.The liquid made her feel dead already as she was in a fever. She had been weak as long as she woke up from her three days deep traumatized sleep. And this cool chilling water was only making her feel half dead.As she blew inside aiming to fill her lungs with water, a strong hold grasped her elbow in a painful hold and yanked her in the opposite direction of her drowning.It happened real quick yet she had already gulped some wate
74"I am going to bring my mate back." — Alpha Alan***Alpha Alan's POV"Lisa!"I stopped in the middle of my room looking at the spot I had left her some while back.'Where is she? Where did she go, Alan?'My wolf gulped his emotions for there was only her gown lying on the floor but her.I quickly went ahead to pick it up. Bringing it near my face I pressed it on my cheek to feel her. Her scent filled my lungs as I inhaled it. I hugged it to my chest as I fell on my knees.Her gown was torn which only meant she shifted into her wolf and possibly jumped out of the window. I got up to look outside the huge window while hugging her dress, trying to feel her.I really pissed her so much that she preferred to shift into her wolf and went away .Went away? That rang in my head like a caco
73"Please don't do this to me. I am sorry. I am sorry, Alan."***Lisa barged inside his room like a tornado. She was afraid to see him in bed with his mistress but astonishment widened her eyes for he was sitting near the huge window with her in his lap.She grew more amazed and fearful when she peered at Jenny from head to toe. She was really pretty. It was a face Lisa can't compare her beauty with. She was perfection personified. A figure any man would want to own. Deep dark eyes any guy would want to get lost in them.Her slender fingers remained pressed against his shoulders so tenderly that it made Lisa gulp her saliva. She was really gorgeous and looked like a possession an alpha would obsessively keep with himself. That moment Lisa really felt little in front of her. And the way Alan's hands held her, Lisa felt like crying her heart out. It was a possessive hold as though he owned her exclusively&mda
72"I didn't really mean when I said you can punish me however you want, Alpha Alan."****Lava-like eyes burning in the flames of utter aggression froze her. His hands caught her shoulders and pushed her back against a wall.Lisa stopped breathing when he came closer. Their faces remained just a hair-breadth apart as he grumbled. She regretted saying that, there was nothing she could do to unsay it regardless."Had I told you to go with him? Was it I who told you I don't need your help anymore? Was it I who asked us to take our different routes that day? No Lisa, it wasn't me. It was you who wanted to go with him. So whatever you went through— was the outcome of your own choice." She gasped as a shiver of pain racked her spine.His voice was raw and sea deep. His eyes portrayed animosity his words wanted her to feel. Although her eyes streamed at that feeling, Lisa summoned courage and lifted
71 "Then why are you here, princess? Go to your first choice." — Alpha Alan **** That night Lisa realized that life was harsher than what she has seen so far post she woke up in a medical room. She found herself surrounded by medics who were dressing her head and checking her pulse. "Lie down, princess. You are weak." One of them, a woman with a vibrant expression, said as she pressed her hand on Lisa's shoulder so she laid down in the bed she was in. Lisa looked at her side. There was her brother. His face was tight and he was clenching his jaw. His eyes were moist too. When he observed her looking at him, a tear dribbled down his left eyes and he immediately grasped her hand. "There's no way he'd melt, Lisa. Let's go home." His voice was heavy and serious. Sebestian portrayed concern only a brother would show to his beloved sister. She wa
70. "I didn't save you and your pack because I cared for her. My care and affection toward her died long ago when she walked on me with that cousin of yours." — Alpha Alan. **** Lisa clutched her brother's hand to stabilize herself. Her knees started wobbling right after her eyes found Alpha Alan. She had been confident and recognized what she was supposed to do once they reached the Brave Blood Pack's castle. However now, she felt her hopes and courage melting into mush. Sweat covered her back like a sheet of moss on water. She found it difficult to breathe as she looked into those eyes. They were dark... Like the clouds of a stormy evening. They were ready to pour but they didn't as if they were trying to get even darker. "I will call him here." That sound of Adrian's voice sounded pleasing to her ears otherwise her heart beats were the only thing audible to herself. "
