2024-10-29 19:42:56~Anna~
I blinked a couple of times as my mind tried to understand the sight in front of me. She was clinging to my mate, the man who had just kissed me and told me that I was his Luna. The man I just made a promise to be worthy of. And he was letting it happen.
They appeared like long time lovers, completely comfortable in their public display of affection, and I couldn’t look away. I could hear her giggling, and they seemed to be engaged in a conversation, in their own world. And I felt a pang in my heart.
“I’m sorry,” said Gale, and I replied with a hmmm.
“He has no choice,” he said.
Liam started to walk towards the castle with her still clinging onto him, and I remained frozen in my seat as I watched them disappear past the t

~Anna~Lexy pursed her lips and lookedat Gale.I heard him sigh and said, “Don’t.”“Why not?” I shouted in his direction. “I deserve to knowwhat’s happening! Why is my mate engaged with someone else? Why didn’t you tellme?”“How could you keep this a secret from me, Lexy?” I asked,looking at her through tear-filled eyes.“I’m sorry,” she said, bowing her head. “If you knew, youwouldn’t have agreed to come with us.”“What am I even doing here then?”“You’re our Luna,” Gale said in a matter-of-fact tone. “Hetold you himself and it’s the
Ascension of a Gamma Chapter 25 Perfect Reflection
~Liam~I’m lying in bed, trying to get my mind off the flash of pain I saw in her eyes. I caused it, and now guilt was eating at my conscience. I had no choice but to hide the truth from her. I couldn’t tell her, and her ignorance would protect her. As long as she didn’t know more than what she needed to know, I could keep her with me.Gale understood, and he would keep Lexy in check since she was easily carried away with her emotions and morality. I hoped to listen in on them, but Salina found me. After she screamed my name, anyone would.Fuck. Cruel mate. She seriously kicked me down there, twice, in one day! I deserved it, but our future generations didn’t.A chuckle escaped me. My fiery Anna – sh
Ascension of a Gamma Chapter 26 Helpless Idiot
~Anna~ A week went by and I’d say it was a success on my part – I’d been avoiding Liam and his fiancé, Salina. Most of the time, I was cooped up in my room, playing arcade games on my phone while waiting for Lexy to get off her shift at the pack clinic. When Gale had free time, he’d come over with Lexy and we’d spend our time chatting about anything or watching films. Other times, I’d take a stroll outside – I didn’t dare visit the pack, so it was just within walking distance from the castle. Still, without anyone’s knowledge, I would sometimes sneak into the woods.This territory belonged to the Red Claw pack – surely, there would be no surprise attacks or rogue attacks with the Alpha here. It was peaceful in the woods, and I didn’t bother wo
Ascension of a Gamma Chapter 27 Unarmored Knight
~Anna~My back hit the ground, but that was all I felt – no sharp teeth on my skin, no thick slobber. Then I heard another growl, heard a heavy thud, followed by a whimper. I opened my eyes and to my left I saw that a new wolf had come from nowhere, baring his teeth at the rogue, who was lying to his side, bleeding from his neck.I quickly got to my feet, preparing to sprint back, hoping the newcomer wouldn’t notice. It was a wolf with brown and black fur and unlike the rogue whose wolf looked malnourished and savage, this one looked stronger and more composed.The new wolf lunged for the rogue and I looked away. The image of the wolf ripping off the rogue’s throat – I didn’t want i
Ascension of a Gamma Chapter 28 Trusting Mate
~Anna~I still hadn’t chosen which towear. Checking out every dress in the rack – knee length, backless, sleeveless,plunging neckline… they’re all so beautiful but I’d be too embarrassed to puton any of these and show off skin, especially in front of him. Sighing, l movedon to what else this closet had to offer.Apparently, when Liam told me not to bring anythingunnecessary, like clothes, he already had an entire wardrobe ready for me. I’dnever had this many to choose from before – didn’t know it was this difficultwhen one had more.As I looked at myself in the full body mirror, my eyeswandered into the stack of denim jeans and high-heeled shoes behind me.
Ascension of a Gamma Chapter 29 Little Things
~Liam~I woke up with a weight on mychest. The tingling sensations that washed over me told me who it was. I was ona dopamine high, and so was Luca. Ever since I almost gave in to Salina’sseduction, something I want to beat myself up to until today, and after theexhausting run, I put him through, he took advantage of my lowered guard andtook over. I didn’t have the strength to stop him, and at that point, I didn’tcare for what he intended to do. Turned out, he just wanted to comfort ourmate. He had been keeping quiet since.It was for the best.If it wasn’t for him warning me that something wasn’tright, I wouldn’t have left the office to search for her. What was
Ascension of a Gamma Chapter 30 Subconscious Denial
~Liam~This was expected. I’m surprised it took him a week to get here. He wasn’t welcome in my pack – he never was until that day. This would be the last time he gets to see this place. And it would be the last I get to see Salina. It’d be hardest for me, but as Alpha, I must do what was best for the pack.“Inform the pack,” I ordered. “Find Rigel. Meet me in my office after twenty minutes.”“Yes, Alpha,” said Gale and hurriedly went down the stairs then out the door.Lately, I’d been thinking that I might actually have a shot at this. That maybe things would also be better for me, as long she was around, as long as she stayed by my side. That maybe, just maybe, this was what Sarina would’ve wanted
Ascension of a Gamma Chapter 31 Doubtful Vision
~Liam~Salina stood beside me, wearing short denim shorts and a long thin shirt with a deep V-neck. She had her hair loose past her shoulders, and I forced a smile on my face. She clung to my side; I let her be. This would be the last she gets this close with me.“You were with her last night, weren’t you?” she asked quietly.Unlike her usual chirpy self, she was quiet today as we waited for her father to arrive. “I waited for you, but you didn’t come.”“Don’t make it sound like you’re my wife,” I said as gently as I could.All this time, she was beside me. She wasn’t a horrible person, just… clingy and too obedient, I guess. For the last two years, she spent her days here j

Ascension of a Gamma Epilogue
A shrill scream cut through the otherwise silent mansion of the Rose family. Liam awoke, startled, and in a speed that the human eye couldn’t follow, he opened Alia’s bedroom door with a bang.The light switched on, illuminating the little girl shaking in her bed. Tears brimmed her eyes, threatening to spill. She breathed harshly, raising her arms to ask for her Daddy’s comfort.Liam’s gaze shifted momentarily to the windows, which were, much to his relief closed, the curtains exactly the way they were when he left her.The boys’ bedroom door opened as Liam stalked to Alia. He raised the girl by her waist and let her down on his lap.“Daddy,” she cried, burying her face in his chest.Liam stroked her hair and gently leaned forward and back. “It’s only a nightmare, baby. Daddy’s here.”“You can put those down,” he said to the boys. Aylan carefully put down the bag of wolfsbane powder.“No bad guys?” asked Amiry.“N
Ascension of a Gamma Chapter 80 Little Alphas
“I’m thinking of adopting,” said Gale as he ran a hand though his hair. “I haven’t talked to Andrix about it yet, but he won’t be averse at the idea, would he?”Rigel calmly drank his glass of bourbon, which was from Liam’s not-so-secret personal collection.“A human kid?” he asked.“No, you fucking dumbass. Do you want the kid to die?” Gale said, scowling.Liam muttered under his breath, something about not having a moment of quiet time for himself as he scanned and signed through a stack of documents. Gray streaks dyed his hair, and lines had begun to show on his face. He had a stubble from having forgotten to shave that morning. It was because of the children jumping up on him before daybreak.Sighing, he signed the last o
Ascension of a Gamma Chapter 79 Hopeful Hearts
~Liam~“AAAHHH!!!” Anna’s screams filled the entire room as our babies pushed their way out. In a few more hours or minutes, we were going to be parents!“AAAHHH!!! Ughm!”I clenched my jaw as she crushed my hands in a death grip. She was sweating profusely, her breathing heavy. Lexy and Helia and nurses were constantly checking on her.I didn’t know what else to do. If I could share the pain with her, I would. The only plan my mind came up with was to talk to her like it would help.“You’re doing great, babe!” I encouraged.I can’t feel my hands.“Breathe… breathe… you’re alright… you’re doing great!”
Ascension of a Gamma Chapter 78 Whispering Promises
~Liam~I’d been squeezing a stress ball since morning – Gale’s recommendation. As ridiculous as it looked, it was helping.“Did you hear back from Helia?” I asked as soon as Lexy entered my office.“She’ll be here by tomorrow morning,” she replied, dropping on the sofa like a bag of potatoes. “Are you sure you want to me to handle this, bro? We can ask the humans – they’ve more experience and frankly, I’ve only ever delivered one baby.”We owned hospitals and leaving her in the hands of an expert would maybe lower the risks, but she was a special case.Her blood, her race – if something hocus pocus happened while a human was around, the safest measure would be to kill that human. It would upset her. Then again, she didn’t have to know. Still…“I’m leaving you in charge of preparations,” I said firmly. “If something… starts happening, do whatever you have to save her.”“I want her to make it
Ascension of a Gamma Chapter 77 Sour Brownies
~Liam~“Babe, I’m sorry. You told me I can have it.”I ate the last brownie on the fridge and forgot to bake more since I spent the day in the office. For the mean time, I was handling two packs because I didn’t want her to stress herself over pack matters. She was on board with the idea. It gave her more time to read books and nap – she’d been napping at almost after every hour.When she was in the mood for boring paperwork, she’d join me. I enjoyed her company – things finish faster, and her mood would lighten up at the Black Mist Pack’s reports which were usually on their progress on the numerous programs implemented to help stabilize their position.I didn’t get yelled at or pushed away for being
Ascension of a Gamma Chapter 76 Real Happiness
~Rigel~“The little fucker’s asleep.”I grinned in triumph. My carbon copy had been crying for hours, keeping everyone wide awake at twenty minutes past twelve on a Friday night! Sabri was lying in bed, her eyes closed, tired from the sleepless nights and early mornings.I wouldn’t let Mom take care of my kid while I slept. She needed to rest, too, after a long day of feeding the pack.I could train for hours, spar with every warrior willing to get bruises, but holding a kid and dancing him around for hours… every muscle in my arms screamed at me to let them down on my sides. Funny thing was that he didn’t even weigh much.A settled man. None of the guys would’ve expected that I’d be the first one. My bachelor days were over, and yet despite the added responsibilities, I was… happier?I had a beautiful queen in bed, and a little prince in my arms. What more could I ask for?Mom was ov
Ascension of a Gamma Chapter 75 Forever Yours
~Anna~“You look so beautiful, Anna,” said Lexy, dabbing at her eyes.“Thank you, Lexy… for everything,” I said and gave her a tight hug.“Won’t you at least tell me what happens after? I heard Aunty J stressing over the menu for tonight.”I didn’t know how the ceremony would proceed, and they’d been keeping their mouths sealed.“Well… we, your loyal subjects, enjoy a night of feasting and drinking and some alone time with our mates…”I sniggered, surprised that she could be so bold when it came to Carson.“… while you and bro copulate somewhere else.”Oh, Goddess…
