Alpha Anton peered out of the window in his office as he looked at the overgrown trees. An intense longing came over him, and he suddenly wished that Kyra was by his side. It had only been a few days, and she seemed to have found a way to get under his skin that he wanted to see and always argue with her. He loved the fire that burned in her eyes when she got angry and also the upward tilt of her upper lip that he found to be so adorable. It wasn’t normal one bit."What is it about you that makes me want to be by your side at every moment?" He whispered to himself.A knock sounded at the door and he slowly turned towards it. "Who is it?" He managed. He could always tell who was at the door from the scent but he was too distracted by thoughts of Kyra."It’s Abraham, alpha," came the response."Come in,’ Alpha Anton said quietly.He moved away from the window to stand in front of his chair where he rested his palms on the table, still standing. He was too restless to sit down so this wa
"Why would you make such a comment, Alpha? I’m a bought slave, and there is no way I can be a Luna at this point. Stop trying to mock me more than is needed. I don’t find it funny at all," Kyra looked taken aback that he would even say such.Her own father did not even think that she was worthy enough to be his daughter, Tristan saw her as a tool to hurt her father but Anton thinks she is worthy enough to become a Luna. Shocking, but Kyra felt happiness fill her heart at the fact that Anton thought that she was good enough to be someone as important as the Luna of a pack, even as she tried to tell him not to repeat such a statement.Anton was about to say something, but a guard moved towards them at once. Kyra sighed as she took a step back, but she didn’t leave. She looked at the woman who was still crying profusely.'I can’t believe the Alpha thinks that you’re worthy of becoming a Luna after all that’s happened so far including the Tristan incident,' her wolf grumbled.Kyra sighed
Kyra sighed as she stood up from the bed she had been laying on and slowly made her way to the chair at the corner of her room. It's been two hours since fled from Alpha Anton's throne room. She wondered what the man was thinking when he even made mention of her having the attributes of a Luna.It was wrong of him to say such a thing to someone like her. He even refused for her to work and pay him money he gave to her father to buy her. If he sees her as someone important enough to be a Luna, surely he would have agreed to releasing her because she could never be anyone important as long as she was still someone he bought.Must be some sort of joke to him. Maybe he lives giving people hope and squashing it. He was kind to his pack members, maybe she was the only one he treated like this.Kyra sighed as she grabbed a hold of her chair, before sitting down heavily on it. Her hands moved to her stomach at the same time, it made a rumbling noise. OK, she was so hungry right now, but there
Kyra felt a cold chill race down her spine at his words. She couldn't have heard him well, right or was her ears suddenly playing tricks on her?She raised her eyes to his and Alpha Anton was smiling lightly as he looked at her. Yes, he was definitely joking with her."Kyra, you don’t need to look at me this way. You need to accept my proposal because this is what is best for the both of us," he said softly.“You are joking, aren't you?” He was smiling but he sounded serious.Alpha Anton clicked his tongue, “When have I ever joked? I'm being serious right now.”Kyra scoffed in response. "I don’t accept this. I don’t understand why you keep making silly advances and saying things you are not supposed to say to me.”Ifshe was still the foolish Kyra who was in love with Tristan, she would have believed Alpha Anton. She needed to thank Tristan for opening her eyes to the world. She was never going to allow herself to become a victim again.Alpha Anton chuckled in response as he leaned clo
Kyra carefully combed her hair as she looked at her reflection in the mirror. She realized vaguely that her hair had grown more than it had previously. The brown texture was more prominent now. She liked it so much."Is it because of my beauty that he wants me?" She asked as her hand moved to trace the contours of her face. She was the exact replica of her mother who was one of the most beautiful Luna Queen, so Kyra knew that she was very beautiful.No matter what she had told herself since Alpha Anton had proposed to her about becoming his girlfriend, she couldn’t deny that she had thought about what it would be like if she were to become a Luna Queen like her mother. Kyra sighed as she brought her hand down from her face, and let it move down her white gown. It was beautiful enough to stand out, but she had nowhere to go actually. Yet, she chose not to nag about it and remain indoors.Cynthia has not been in her room since yesterday and she was beginning to think that alpha Anton
Yes, the garden in Alpha Anton’s pack was actually bigger than the one in her father’s pack, but Kyra did not end up enjoying her time there like she first thought she would.After seeing that lady who Cynthia said was Alpha Anton’s best friend, she kept zoning out and her mind kept going back to the lady. Because of this, her time in the garden was ruined, and she could not enjoy the scent of the flowers nor the beauty of it all. She decided to dismiss Cynthia and return to her room, but she kept having this ominous feeling, she could relax or sit still. Lying down and trying to sleep was a problem too, and she was unable to understand the cause of it.Kyra released a sigh for three umpteenth time as she moved away from the door walking haphazardly through the room. Her chest felt so tight, and she was filled with the fear that something bad was going to happen. What it was, she did not know.“Miss?” A masculine voice called with the soft rap of a knock to accompany it.Kyra paused
Kyra knew that she shouldn’t be surprised. After all, people from different packs were there when Alpha Anton nearly choked Roselyn to death because she slapped her. So, the news was bound to get out.Because she was always indoors and had no friends in the pack, Kyra had not heard about the gossip. Kyra has nearly even forgotten about that night. Nearly, because her mind was now consumed with alpha Anton’s plenty of proposals and her body’s reaction to him which she was unable to understand.Tanya leaned against the table and focused all her attention on Kyra, “So, it’s really true, huh?”Kyra’s head tilted a little to the side in confusion, “What’s really true?”“The rumors of him nearly killing Roselyn in front of everyone because of you. Your reaction already gave it away.” Then Tanya turned to look at Anton, “Why did you do it anyway? It would have been better if Kyra stood up and fought for herself. Now, she will be the target of many women because they think she’s weak. You can
“You don’t want us to be friends?” Tanya looked sad as she asked Kyra.“No,” Kya waved her hands as she quickly tried to assure Tanya, “Of course I want us to be friends. It’s just that I’ve never had a friend before so I don’t…” she trailed off and looked down again when she saw pity in Tanya’s eyes. Kyra knew that the look in Anton’s eyes must mirror Tanya’s, and she did not want their pity. Her reason for not accepting Tanya’s request to be friends quickly was not really because of this. Tanya was beautiful and bubbly, but she was giving off a vibe that Kyra could not understand. It made her weary.“Well, it’s a good thing you can now have friends.” Alpha Anton said. “Tanya and I have been friends since childhood. I don’t mind sharing her with you.”“Oh please, stop it, Anton.” Tanya’s voice came out softly as she slapped Anton on his biceps.Kiss watched the exchange with a weird feeling curling in the pit of her stomach, and she suddenly began to feel nauseous.“I think I’m goi
After a few seconds, Kyra gave in and hugged Anton back. Her hands tight on his waist as she pressed closer as if trying to mold their bodies together.“Come, let’s return home. No training for today,” Anton said when they finally separated from the hug. “Take today off, Baxter. I’ll take the Miss to rest,”Baxter bowed, “Thank you, my king,” he picked up his sword and looked at Kyra, “I hope that the next time we meet you’ll look healthier than today.” He bowed to her before taking his leave.Kyra rolled her eyes as she watched Baxter exit the training ground. After he had left, she refused to turn to look at Anton even if she could feel his attention on her.“You really are going to make me force you to look at me, right?”Kyra pressed her lips into a thin line not saying a word.“Are you still mad at me for disappearing on you? Believe me, I didn't mean to. I tried to come back to visit you multiple times but there was no chance to do so. I did not know when exactly I’d be back so
Kyra struggled to pry her eyes open, only to be met with a blurry, unfamiliar haze. She frowned, disoriented, and attempted to roll onto her side. A low groan escaped her lips as she slowly turned, her vision clearing to reveal the unfamiliar yet familiar space of her own bathroom. Confusion gave way to alarm as she realized she was lying on the cold, hard floor.She slowly pushed herself into a sitting position as she struggled to remember how she got to the floor of her bathroom. Her head was pounding with a terrible headache and her eyes felt hot and puffy, her nose was congested, forcing her to breathe through her mouth, each ragged inhale a struggle.She’d woken up this morning to take her bath and go for a little work since she was tired of always being indoors and only going out for her training. She missed having Tanya and Anton around, the thought brought tears to her eyes as she took her bath but she did not let it fall.After bathing, she was wiping her body with her towel
Two whole days and she’s not caught a glimpse of Anton and Tanya. The remaining part of the ceremony was cancelled and everybody returned home to their various packs amidst grumbles and complaints. For the next week, all everybody including the maids in the palace spoke about was the upcoming duel and Kyra could not find it in her to sit still. She was agitated even when she knew the duel was not until a few months time. She wanted to find Anton so that they could talk but he was always busy, so she began to suspect that he was actually avoiding her. Tanya included. She could not blame Tanya though, she lost her temper the other night and it was unforgivable. Tanya was her friend and she won’t intentionally do anything to hurt Kyra, especially as she knew all Kyra has been through and she has accused Tanya of doing exactly that. There was no excuse for it. When she saw that she could only meet with Anton when he was ready to stop avoiding her, Kyra decided to return to her training
“It does not matter if she’s the daughter of an alpha because your father is also an alpha or have you forgotten?”“My father was an alpha but never for one day was I trained. I’ve always been weak and according to my father, that was my punishment for killing off my mother.” Kyra’s voice broke at the end and she felt like slipping to the ground and bursting into loud sobs but she held herself back from doing so. She has told herself after the death of her child that she would never cry again. Instead, she will make all those who've made her shed tears cry.Tanya was shocked at Kyra’s confession and a look of pity appeared in her eyes.“You don't know what you've gotten me into, Tanya.” Kyra raved, her eyes bright with anger, “Lisa is a mad person. Can’t you see how she scratched her own face and hands in such an ugly way? For her mate to have been mated to me in the first place, danced with me in front of everybody and still declared that he was more worthy of having me than Anton i
Everyone gasped, Kyra included as she was shocked that Tristan would even make this kind of offer when he knew that alpha Anton was stronger than he was. What was he hoping to gain by this charade? And he was even putting her in the middle of it? What in the name of the gracious moon goddess would he even want to have a duel with Anton for her? He wanted to show that he was worthy of being her mate? The same man who got her pregnant and abandoned her as a form of revenge against her own father? What was wrong with him? He left her first and was even aware that she was sold off then him, together with his Luna, Lisa, made sure she lost her child so what was he going on about? Wait, he must still want revenge against her father. Yes, that must be it because there was no other logical reason as to why he was doing this. So he would give himself up to death just to satisfy his quest for revenge? Well, that makes the both of them but she was not letting Anton participate in this tras
Kyra was only able to breathe freely again when she was back in the ceremonial hall but then, she spotted some people that were huddled together and she could hear them speaking angrily.Curiosity kills the car, they say and Kyra was a curious cat. Even if she knew that going there was a wrong decision she still wanted to know what was going on and what they were talking about.“She hit and scratched me! I told you that accepting this invitation was a bad idea, Tristan but you refused. She’s still hung up on you!” Lisa screeched in anger. She had tears running down her cheeks that were filled with claw marks when Kyra got to the gathering and was able to squeeze her way into the middle.Kyra was shocked at the way she met Lisa. Her appearance was very different from the woman she left in the bathroom. Kyra could not understand what was going on as she did not hear what Kyra had just said but she felt immense satisfaction at how Lisa was looking. The marks on her face were not really
Lisa had a smirk on her face as she stared at Kyra’s outfit from head to toe. Kyra felt anger and hate fill her but she controlled her emotions and decided to ignore the other woman. After she was done, she tried to walk away, but Lisa got hold of her hand, dragging her back until she hit the wall. Anger sparked within Kyra and she wanted to immediately attack Lisa but she knew that it won’t end well. She could almost envision Anton shaking his head at her.Kyra winced when Lisa's fingers dug deep into the flash of her wrist but quickly schooled her expression when she saw the smirk on Lisa's face. She was not going to allow the other woman to see her in pain.“You really have a lot of nerves, you slut,” Lisa sneered with hatred written all over her face as she finally released Kyra’s hand from her hold.Kyra wasn't moved by the insult, it wasn't the first time that she was getting such insults but she was not letting this one go, she just scoffed at her statement. “Are you seriously
Since Faith refused to say whatever it was that she wanted to but promised to show Kyra instead, she decided to let the matter drop. The two women both sat in silence for a while as Kyra tried to gather herself together and get her wolf calmed down and then they returned back to the ceremony because it was still ongoing and because Kyra did not want Lisa and Tristan to think that they had succeeded in chasing her away.Kyra did not care how things were playing out, she would still make sure to get my revenge back for everything they’ve done to her. She would also take something very valuable from them the same way they took her baby who was the only family she had left in the world. She would destroy them just the same as they've destroyed her life. Kyra vowed to bring Tristan down and make him beg for mercy but none would be shown to him just the same way he did not show her any mercy. Kyra just hoped that her wolf would cooperate with her this time and not try to come up and cause
“No, calm down,” Kyra tried to suppress her wolf, but it was impossible. She could feel her fangs elongating and her claws coming out, so she turned to flee down the hall. “Kyra! What’s wrong?” She could hear Tristan's voice right behind her and knew that he was following her. “No, no,” Kyra was chanting in her head, but her wolf was refusing to cooperate. She should never have accepted to dance with Tristan in the first place when she knew that all she wanted to do was sink her claws in his chest and bring out his heart then feed it to dogs. Kyra wanted him dead! She should never have listened to Anton and danced with him. Now, her wolf was going to come out and get in a fight with him. She was not only going to scatter the ceremony that was going on, she might end up dead because Tristan was an alpha and by right, he was stronger than she was. Though she knew that Anton would not let Tristan kill her, she did not want to ruin their plan. Kyra kept shoving people out of her w
