Alpha's Second Choice Chapter 16- Emotions
It was total chaos in Dark Slayer Pack, the furious Alpha sent for the elders to be summoned from the holy Cathedral Shrine. It would take a couple of days for the elderlies to arrive however as the shrine was located very far away. Jayden would not hear it from anyone, not even the former Alpha. Dante was still locked in the dungeon where all the slaves were usually kept before they were paraded for the annual hunt. 'Son, let's not do things with a hot head. How about we release the general and have a proper civil conversation', the former Alpha tried talking some sense.'He will NOT be released. So, what if he is a general from the royal kingdom? Leo was not just the Gamma of this pack but also my childhood friend. So, with all due respect father, he will stay in that dungeon until I say otherwise', Jayden growled making the former Alpha take a few steps back. *'HAHAHA, so much for laying low', Caleb snickered at his friend who was behind the huge rusting bars. 'Why did you even l
Alpha's Second Choice Chapter 17- Run but don't hide
Day five of the royal visitDante had been in the dungeon for nearly three days now and Jo was worried sick for him. This was not like her at all, he was a complete stranger to her. And yet here she was, nervous about what the trial had in store for him. It was hard to admit but she had grown some respect for him when he stood up for the fairies. Leo’s death was extremely satisfying for her to watch, especially after horrible abuses the brute Gamma had inflicted on so many slaves. Jo tried to refocus her mind again. She had a bigger fish to fry. The two fairies had confessed to her that they were escapees from the fairy land and not really lost in the no-man’s border. Unfortunately for them, they were captured by Dark Slayers warriors before they could escape to the human civilisation. They really had a tough luck. Now Jo was making an escape plan for four people, and she had to make sure there were no mistakes. Because one mistake could cost their lives. Jayden was not really your s
Alpha's Second Choice Chapter 18- The trial
Jo watched Dante’s eye in amusement, his golden eyes were now completely engulfed by the silver rings. It was as if he was being controlled by someone else.‘Mate’, he whispered again as the word sent tingles down her spine. ‘Mate’, Jo mimicked him as she got lost in his silver swirls, they were very hypnotising and easy to get lost in. ‘I know’, he tenderly replied as he touched her face with the back of his hands, scared that he might hurt her delicate features. Jo did not even realise what was happening, she was not one of them after all. She had read about the mate bonds between the werewolves and used to think how lucky they were. After realising Jayden was her mate, she was even more surprised that mate bonds commonly existed between different species as well. But having seen the true face of her horrible mate, she knew it was not a blessing but a curse to have a mate and to experience the mate bond. You were destined to be with another soul you did not even know. Jo was glad
Alpha's Second Choice Chapter 19- The Runaway friends
‘This aura’, Lucy quizzically guessed as she stopped in the tracks and sniffed the air. ‘It feels different and so powerful’.‘Lucy, keep running! We don’t have time to spare’, Jo redirected her attention as she quickly apologised. Soon after Dante was taken away to the trial, Jo had recollected herself and gathered the girls. While there was a ruckus going in the trial ground, they ran to the east side of the pack. Stopping at nothing. The patrolling was heavily reduced to only two warriors at the post due to the ongoing trial. So, setting her plan in place, she made Lucy go and talk to the two warriors. ‘What do you want?’, one of them asked as Lucy approached.‘Um, I am a bit lost’.‘Lost?’, They snickered. ‘Lucy, we attended the same class in high school. You used to get full scores in everything including the forest hunts’, one of them spoke and then Lucy realised that the two warriors were her former classmates from high school. If she was not mistaken, the brown-haired guy
Alpha's Second Choice Chapter 20- To be or not to be
Watching her werewolf mate easily snap the demon’s head did nothing to her. How could she forget the dead look in his eyes when he rejected her. Not even hesitating a little bit. She refused to get swooned by his kind charms again, werewolves were all same towards the end. Most of them only wanted power and cared about ranks. Primal instincts at the best. However, she did shiver a little at the words of the second Aamon’s riddle. It might sound perplexing to a foreigner’s ears, but she already knew the answers. The darkness, the seek…. As soon as Dante was faced by the ordeal of the riddle and the self-sacrifice of the demon, he turned around, facing her once again.She gulped hard, forcing her body to stop reacting to those golden eyes of his. They were deceitful. At first, it lures you in with its golden ambience and silver swirls but the moment you think you could get lost in it, you realised its true intention. And they weren’t good ones. ‘I accept your rejection’, she bravely
Alpha's Second Choice Chapter 21- When in Rome, do as the Romans do
Dante sank into his large office chair as his eyes darted on the piling folders on the desk. It was going to take him days to go through all the cases and read them thoroughly. He called Caleb via mind link. ‘Yes boss’.‘Caleb, send all the royal healers to your pack immediately’, he told his right hand.‘Sure, but why?’, Caleb’s big mouth wanted to know everything as always.‘Just do it’, with that, he cut off the mind link. Caleb was the Alpha of Ice warrior pack and could easily keep the royal healers there for a couple of weeks. It was wrong to do this, but he wanted more time with Jo. Just the thought of parting and sending her off to the human settlements made him feel sick. As he opened the first case file, he took a deep breath in. It was time to get to work*Lucy yawned as she stretched her hands, the birds were chirping outside, and the sunrise was falling shyly in her room. It was a good-sized room considering that she was not really a special guest for the royal kingdom.
Alpha's Second Choice Chapter 22- Child's play
Disclaimer: The spelling errors in some of Evelyn’s part are intentional as she is meant to have some speech difficulties. ‘Look at this Tulip, it has a different smell to it’, Daya handed a small brightly pink coloured flower to Lucy.‘Yes, it does’, Lucy tried concentrating on the smell, it was mild but citrus-like. But the smell was soon overpowered by something else. An irresistible scent of ocean waves with splash of orange bergamot flooded the air. As Lucy closed her eyes and got lost in the scent, she did not realise she was too far gone before Daya had to rattle her. ‘Come back Lucy’, she hastily said. As Lucy opened her eyes, Caleb stood before her, smiling sheepishly. ‘Good morning, ladies’. ‘Hey’, was all she replied as she pretended to study the flower really closely.‘Can I speak to you alone Lucy?’, he asked, scratching his hair with his right hand nervously.‘I need to go and check on Mina. Make sure her snoring isn’t getting too loud’, Daya excused herself as Lucy
Alpha's Second Choice Chapter 23- Strong
In the dark realm‘My king, you called for me’, Belial appeared in dark clouds. He was the demon king’s right hand.Belial could make the un-death dance on his fingertips if he wanted to, his powers second only to King Victor.‘Follow the Aamons at the no-man’s border. We are so close to finding Jolene, I can feel it. Make sure there are no loose ends Belial’, the king commanded from his dark throne, his chin rested on his right hand. Belial simply nodded, in consensus of his king’s order and vanished in thin air. ‘There is no escape this time, my little siren’, the king mumbled, only for him to hear.*‘Evelyn! Did you spill tea on someone again? Olivia will not be happy about it’, the same elderly maid from earlier disrupted Jo’s train of thoughts. Jo was curious now. She had heard about Olivia three times already, who was she?‘It was a mistake, Lidija. Soweyy’, Evelyn apologised, her head down.The old maid only frowned more. ‘Who is Olivia?’, Jo finally asked making the old l

Alpha's Second Choice Chapter 47- Goblet of true feelings- Final part
Jo had been wandering the hallways of the demon kingdom, lost in her thoughts, when she found herself outside Victor's room. She hadn’t planned on visiting him, but something drew her to the door. She hesitated, her hand hovering just above the handle. She could sense something was wrong. The air around the door felt thick with a strange energy, almost suffocating.She heard a low, pained whimper from inside. Her heart clenched.Victor? Without thinking, Jo pushed the door open and stepped inside.The room was shrouded in darkness, but it wasn’t just the absence of light. This darkness felt alive, pulsating, almost like it was breathing. And there, in the middle of it, was Victor, doubled over in pain, his hands clutching his head.“Victor!” Jo’s voice trembled with concern as she rushed to his side. She could see his body trembling, sweat glistening on his brow. He looked up at her, his eyes a mixture of pain and something else—fear.“Jo…stay back,” he managed to gasp out between brea
Alpha's Second Choice Chapter 46- Goblet of true feelings- Part II
Jo sat stiffly on the edge of the opulent bed, her gaze fixed on Belial. The dim light filtering through the heavy curtains cast long shadows across the room.Belial's presence suddenly became commanding, his dark armor and intense gaze making the room feel even colder. There was only seriousness in the air now.He took a deliberate step closer to Jo, his voice dropping to a low, grim tone. "There is something you need to understand about the demon kings, Jolene. Victor killed Hades because his madness turned to the point of no return. Hades wanted Sea kingdom's most precious weapon, and Victor had a change of heart after meeting you. However, I am now worried about what this means for Victor.The madness is a truth that haunts every ruler who sits upon the throne of the underworld."Jo’s heart quickened, her thoughts racing as she tried to grasp the gravity of Belial’s words. "What are you talking about? What truth?"Belial’s eyes, sharp and unwavering, met hers. "The madness. Every d
Alpha's Second Choice Chapter 45- Goble of true feelings- Part I
Victor stared at Jo dangerously. If looks could kill, Jo would be six feet deep already. Before the siren could decently cover herself in front of the crowd that was now gathering, Victor snapped his fingers, and instantly the warrior next to her started grasping for air, his hands around his neck as if something invisible was choking him, robbing him of air. 'Victor, stop', the siren pleaded for the warrior who she knew was probably a victim of Pat's evil plan. 'Fuck this Jo', the demon king mumbled. 'You care about this warrior so much?'. Jo knew it was a wrong move because the warrior's body suddenly went still. She knew he was dead, so she dared not look at the body lying next to her. Tears were welling up in her eyes, this was not how she imagined her 18th birthday to have been celebrated. Damn it. She did not even want to have a celebration in the first place. 'Everyone who dares lay their eyes on my soon-to-be bride will have it ripped out of their socket. OUT!', Victor
Alpha's Second Choice Chapter 44- Taste like deceit
Victor did not know when and how this has happened but Jo was the only one he could think of every single day. Before he even realised, he had fallen hard for the siren. Jo’s voice that sounded like melodies had drawn Victor to her, and he had fallen for her enchanting voice, her vibrant red hair, and the way her eyes held the depths of the ocean. But now, as Victor’s words echoed through the night, Jo’s world shattered. His confession hung heavy in the air, like a curse that could never be undone. He had killed his own father—the reigning demon king— Jo’s voice trembled as she whispered, “Why, Victor? Why would you do such a thing?” His eyes, once filled with tenderness, now bore the weight of guilt. “Because I love you, Jo. More than my own life. The former King Hades had ordered me to kill the entire royal family of the sea world on the day we were supposed to be married.” Jo’s heart clenched. 'Why would Hades want such thing and to wait till the wedding day? If he wanted to, he
Alpha's Second Choice Chapter 43- Back again
The island was chilly and breezy. Jo looked around and realised she was alone again. And then she heard that serenading sound that had been calling for her, yearning for her and haunting her. She wanted to know where it was coming from. It sounded so eerily familiar like she had heard it before. As she felt the soft shoreline sand beneath her bare foot, she knew she was getting close to that sound. It was coming from inside the Islands. But every time she tried to get closer, she would always…………Jo woke up panting. She had the same dream again. Ever since Belial’s attack, she had been having the same recurring dream of a serenading sound calling for her. But every time she tried to get close to it, she would wake up. Damn her luck.Not wasting any more time, she quickly got up and checked today’s date on a nearby table calendar. Her heart sank realizing that the day of the fairies’ departure was getting closer and closer. They were leaving in three days. It almost felt like a part of
Alpha's Second Choice Chapter 42- Feels like home
'Marriage?', Lucy repeated her mate's words. Perhaps she misheard because none of this was making sense. Caleb massaged his temples and tried to maintain a calm posture. This was not like Caleb at all. He has always been the goofy type, and it felt weird to see him all so serious. 'Yes. Unfortunately, most Alphas have arranged marriages with other pack leaders to bring strong alliances, keep pure lineages, and build long-lasting relationships. I have been sworn to marry the daughter of Alpha Ramos from the Fawn pack'. Caleb chose his words carefully, knowing this would not be taken well.'Well, have a happy marriage life. I hope you have strong pups. Don't you dare dirty the pure Alpha lineage by considering someone like me, "Lucy said sarcastically and turned to walk away when Caleb yanked her right into his arms.'I don't care about the lineage, not one bit. You could be a vampire for all I care, and I would still love you and let you suck all of my blood', Caleb's words were makin
Alpha's Second Choice Chapter 41- Back to reality
Suddenly there was no more running.No more sleeping with one eye closed.It was safe now. ...Jo slowly tried opening her eyes, she was finally discharged from the pack hospital and back to her guest room. Dante had been busy with his meetings and tightening the pack borders, but he would try his best to check in on her. She blushed thinking about the kiss they shared under the dome. Nothing more has happened ever since. Dante has really been respectful of her boundaries and giving her space.Jo was still walking on eggshells, not sure if this is really meant to be. Dante was married and that was the biggest barrier to everything right now. Even if he did not love Olivia or see her as his wife, they were still lawfully wedded. And Jo was pretty sure, Olivia would not take the news of her being Dante's fated mate well. Or maybe she already knew? Jo could not tell.At least she did not have to pretend with Dante anymore about being an omega. Infact, their mate bond was growing ever
Alpha's Second Choice Chapter 40 - Tell me your secrets
Jo let out a nervous laughter, pretending to have not heard Dante. She quickly averted his gaze, trying to admire the beauty of the hospital walls. Dante just smirked, looking at Jo, who was trying to look oblivious. ‘So?’‘These walls are magnificent. White and pure and simplistic and.....’The Alpha king chuckled and nodded, quickly playing along with his mate. ‘I suppose you find them amusing since your odd likes open spaces more than enclosed walls’.‘I have no idea what you are trying to say?’, Jo’s voice quivered.‘You. Are. A. Siren’, Dante mouthed each word separately, and his hands squeezed hers tighter with each word.This was all so weird! Instead of feeling scared that her mate had found out, Jo had mixed feelings. She felt happy, excited, and a little bit relieved. It is as if a part of her wanted Dante to find out. ‘You are quite an eavesdropper’, Jo said in defeat, and tried to retract her right hand from the Alpha’s strong grip but to no avail. He just wouldn’
Alpha's Second Choice Chapter 39- A slow burner
-Back in royal clinic- Jo inhaled a long breath, gathering more courage to tell the mother-daughter duo the next horrific detail of her past. Sarah, the former Queen, and Evelyn had been patiently listening to her past. Jo had yet to tell them about what happened on the day she turned 18, the day she was to wed Victor. But before she could go on, they were interrupted by a knock on the door. The former Queen frowned at the interruption, ‘Come in’. Olivia walked in gracefully, a fake smile on display. Her dark chestnut hair was shining as always. She curtsied before the former Queen, ‘Queen mother, you are back. Had I known of your arrival, I would have…..’ Before she could finish, Sarah cut her off, ‘We are quite busy here. Did you need anything, Olivia?’. Olivia appeared a bit stunned, but she quickly regained her perfect composure, ‘I just wanted to check in on Jolene as you know she is a guest here. I heard she was attacked yet again. Quite a troublemaker if you ask me’. There
