2024-01-17 00:39:32"You will marry the Alpha heir of the Burning Moon pack before next month."
I quietly watch as the packhouse buzzes with activity as my stepfather’s command continues to engulf my troubled thoughts. It’s just a few days shy of my 18th birthday, but they aren't preparing for my birthday. They are getting ready to welcome the Alpha and Luna of the Burning Moon pack, along with their Alpha heir.
A month ago, my step-father, Alpha Donovan, arranged a marriage contract between the Alpha heir of the Burning Moon Pack, Weston Mercury, and I. I have never met him before. As a diplomatic pawn, that was my biggest value as the Alpha's step-daughter and the daughter of the previous Alpha.
Casually summoned to his office, my step-father unceremoniously called me into his office to condemn me to a future with the unknown, and, with a commanding tone, informed me of this fact without giving thought to my wishes or hope of waiting for my fated mate.
Summoning up my courage, I tried to question this arrangement, "Why me? Why not Sasha? She's already 20, she's already shifted and has her own wolf!"
My words were interrupted by my step-father, "This is the arrangement! Sasha needs to complete her education at the Werewolf Academy. She will become an excellent warrior and mate to her fated mate. Whereas you are merely the descendant of a defeated; you don't deserve those opportunities."
"But I..." I looked towards my mother, who was standing quietly beside us. She looked at me with despair, and I saw tears shimmering in her eyes as she subtly shook her head.
"No 'buts'! Don't make me punish you in front of your mother," my step-father said, giving me one of his disgustingly covetous glares that told me just how desperate his sinister intent had become. He was looking for any excuse to justify his sick and sinister desires he would “be forced” to inflict on me.
Shortly after he made sure his message was received by both of us, he slammed the door as he left.
"An excellent warrior?" I scoffed inwardly. During the last holiday when my step-sister came home, I overheard her conversation with a friend. Her academic performance at school wasn't good, and her expertise lay in flirting and sleeping around with male werewolves.
I settled myself into the middle of my bed, surrounded by an abundance of soft, cushy pillows and mink blankets, opening my laptop to check my email. Nothing.
My sole wish in this world is to go to college and flee from this werewolf society to escape the archaic traditions, rules, and hierarchy. No one knows that I secretly applied to several human universities. Growing up, being treated as a lesser wolf because of my dead father fueled me; giving me the strength and grit I needed to make sure that my academic performance was excellent so that one day, I could liberate myself from this goddess forsaken pack.
Sadly, the tiny shred of hope that kept fueling me was finally crushed once and for all with my step-father’s command, dictating my future. My dream of freedom would be long forgotten and always forbidden.
Ever since my biological father died back in the Pack Wars and my step-father, or Alpha DICKovan as I like to call him, took over the pack, our lives changed.
Alpha Douchebag…mmm, that’s another good one too…called all of our original pack members to the packhouse for a mass meeting. We gathered and he wasted not even a sliver of a millisecond declaring us all second-class werewolves.
This meant we could no longer hold important positions within the pack. First priority to get the opportunity to enter a werewolf university is only given to the current pack heirs, and definitely not pack members originating from a pack’s fallen, deserted, or defeated Alpha.
What that meant to me was that there was not even a snowball’s chance in hell that I was ever going to get priority admissions and I most likely wouldn’t even be granted admission at all.
To add insult to injury, according to the human’s federal government, as a werewolf, I can hardly receive any financial assistance to attend a human university.
At that moment, I felt a fast building pressure in my mind, a signal that someone is attempting to mind-link me. I quickly opened my link to listen for someone to speak to me. As soon as I heard the voice, I rolled my eyes listening to Alpha Sleazeball.
Come to the Alpha’s office immediately!
Yes, Alpha.
Could he be any more rude about it? What a dick.

A fearful shudder crept up my spine as the thought of the repercussions of not going immediately to his office flashed through my mind. I had only been 10 minutes late, but it still earned me an excruciatingly painful slap across the face. The bruise of a handprint was left on my face all day before it finally healed enough to disappear.I scurried quickly out of my bed and down the long corridor that had become my sanctuary. Being the shunned step-daughter of the Alpha, Alpha Donovan ordered my now Omega servant pack mates to move me to a wing to live alone, separated from the rest of my so-called Alpha family. Alpha Donovan couldn’t fully demote my rank and kick me out of the packhouse, let alone the Alpha floor after agreeing to mate, mark and declare my mother his new Luna. So, he did what he thought was the next best thing in his shriveled brain of his; he chose to remove my scent and presence from his living quarters. He moved me to the dusty abandoned other side of the massi

I squared my shoulders with his, standing firm, glaring at him straight in the eyes, “I’m sorry, you must have me confused with your daughter, Sasha.” I smirked, dead serious as I continued, “You know the warriors enjoy passing her around their barracks every time she comes home from the academy on breaks? They like to brag about it all the time! I believe something about something she does with her,” I clearly struck a nerve when he interrupted my goading retort by immediately grabbing me by the neck, digging his claws into it, shoving me up against the wall.With venom dripping from his tone, he growled out, “You should be grateful to me you ungrateful little slut! Without me, you AND your mother would have been dead long ago! Nothing will EVER begin to repay the debts the two of you have cost me and I fully intend on cashing in that debt,” he licked his lips, running his lecherous eyes back up and down my body while using his other hand to fondle and grope my breast, “after you

Mom stopped brushing my hair and I could tell she hesitated for a second before moving to squat in front of me at the vanity. She began in a serious yet hushed voice, “Listen to me and listen good. I’m only going to tell you this once, because I fear what would happen if I ever spoke these words again. Do you understand what could happen to us if what I am about to tell you were to be overheard by anyone?” She stared me in the eyes more seriously than I think I had ever seen her in my life. A knot immediately began to form in my stomach and I grew scared and concerned, but nodded my head in agreement. I would never tell another living soul what my mother was about to tell me. “Our pack is in a remote location, so no one really knew which pack was which or where each of our packs were really located. Because of this, your father persistently worked to conceal our pack’s exact location, while also protecting the identity of the packs near us so if we were ever attacked, our enemies w

Fucking asshole. I shut the mind-link. He technically didn’t say WHEN to keep it open, so I decided that he implied that I should keep it open once the convoy arrives. I didn’t have much time to think as we descended the grand staircase towards the doors to receive our guests. Before I reached the bottom of the staircase, ready for the Burning Moon pack Alpha to inspect me. Afterall, I was his son’s new poised, prized pony of a future mate that they had come to collect. I thought about this unfortunate twist of fate forced upon me. I had to try and be optimistic about this. I had to think of it not as a curse, but potentially, a blessing. The Burning Moon pack is from the city, unlike our remote, tiny and rustic pack up in the mountains. Maybe I could sneak away and hide in the human cities in society? Or atleast hide the fact that I enrolled in a human university in the city? Maybe I can do an online school? I’ve saved, but not enough. I could say I am using funds to improve

I froze in place, my mouth suddenly dry. The man scowled at me after squeezing the omega’s hand as if to ask her to stay before she pulled away.“I’m so sorry miss! I will get back to work right away!” The omega blushed and scurried away as fast as she could.I stood paralyzed as I watched the couples interaction. It sickened me to see so much love and passion exude from the man’s eyes as he watched the young she-wolf slip away from his grasp. My heart ached, but for reasons I couldn’t explain. I didn’t have my wolf yet, so how could he be my mate? We can’t tell until they emerge, and he certainly didn’t jump for joy at my presence. So why did I suddenly have such strong and angry feelings towards this man?The man was tall, towering over me in an intimidating stature as he approached and stood in front of me. He was more attractive than I initially gave him credit for now that I was standing toe-to-toe with the gloriously sexy wolf. His arms and chest clearly showed his strength wi

Alpha Donovan and my mom stood to greet and shake hands with the future alpha heir. “I look forward to the alliance we will be forging through the union of our daughter to you, son!” Alpha Donovan jovially shook Weston’s hand as he looked on at them both smiling; the picture of happiness.He walked over to me as I stood at my seat to greet him with a polite, prim and proper curtsey and bow, “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Weston.”He smirked at me, kissing the top of my hand as he lifted me from my bowing state, “The pleasure is mine.”We stood there for a moment, silent, just staring at each other. Neither of us had any hint of an expression that would give away how we felt about the other and this predicament. If anything, we both looked indifferent and unmoved by one another. Inside I was seething with anger and jealousy, now realizing, it’s for good reason. Was I going to have to live with an unfaithful mate the rest of my life? What was it about him that got under my skin so much

The years have beaten him down; Anyone can tell from the look in his tired eyes.With another deep sigh he answers, “This is how you save your home, Vi, but we have to take it back when the right time comes. Promise me, when the time comes, you will come to my side and help me get back your pack, Vi, promise me! I’ll do everything in my power to bring you back to where you belong!” I would do whatever it took to help my cousin take back my rightful packlands from Alpha DICKovan. When the time was right.“I promise.”“You know you’re going to miss your own mating ceremony if we stay on the phone together much longer, right?” He chuckled, “You need to get some rest. You sound exhausted, Vi.”I knew. I was avoiding everything. I had to face the music of my impending reality.“Speak for yourself!” I attempted a playful laugh. “You’re the one sporting bags under your eyes darker than a vampire’s soul!” I teased, extracting a sweet laugh from Leaf before I began frowning, thinking about

Scrunching my brows, curious as to what he wants to speak to me about privately, I sit back in my seat next to him to hear him out. I’m sure he has some explanation for me about why he was kissing an omega. Weston handsomely smiled that golden boy toothsome smile, waving to everyone as they left the room. Once the door shut, signaling that we were finally alone, Weston turned to me, an indifferent expression still plastered across his face giving nothing away. I started, “So…you want to spill the beans as to what you wanted to speak to me about privately?” “I am a very direct person, Violet. I don’t fault myself for it; and I certainly am not going to apologize for it,” Weston began with an air of arrogance in his attitude.He leaned in close and stated in a sharp authoritative tone, “Here’s what’s going to happen now, Petal,” he spits out a shitty excuse for a pet name bitterly.“You are going to decline our generous offer and formally reject me in front of our Alphas.

Thank the goddess that I knew better than to stay in one place for too long! I put my new apartment into my mother’s name, knowing no one would be looking for or keeping an eye on my mother and what she was doing. Alpha Dickovan hardly ever gave my mother the time of day, except when we were in front of others. He treated her like shit behind closed doors but pretended to dote on her in front of everyone just to show off how beautiful his Luna was to make other alphas jealous. Mom never hid that fact from me. She wanted me to always see him for what he was, even if she couldn’t change our circumstances. I hurriedly closed the door to the car, slinking down into the seat as I saw the two men come barrelling down the stairs and straight towards the same area I was parked in. “Shit, shit, shit!” I whispered to myself as I prayed they didn’t see me…or SMELL me for that matter! They began running and one was on the phone. “Alpha! We caught her scent! She’s been in the apartment b

Violet’s POVOne Month Later As my phone’s alarm begins to blast unapologetically on my night stand, I hit the button to silence the alarm. I sat up rubbing the sleep out of my eyes as I glanced at the time on my phone: 7 AM. Then the date glowing above the time on my clock struck me breathless with a moment of realization; today, Weston and I would have been taking over as the Alpha and Luna of the Mercury Pack. A massive celebration to commemorate the day had been lavishly planned out by Luna Mercy prior to our mating ceremony. The thought sends a jolt of guilt flooding through the mate bond unintentionally. I had done so well to block out the connection to Weston for so long already, how could I have slipped up with something like this?! I had grown so used to having the wall up from the moment Weston and I mated, that I never thought about it. The only time I had to focus on making sure the block remained was when I had a strong emotion overcome me, which the guilt had been

Weston’s POV Weston, My Beloved, My Alpha, My Mate, I love you more than anything in this world. From the moment I met you, you have done nothing but bring me love, safety, and happiness. I have cherished all the times we have spent together. All of it. The good. The beautiful. The bad. And the tragic. I wanted so badly for our love to grow and strengthen our amazing pack! The moon goddess placed us here for each other with a purpose. I realize now, that I am not meant for this realm any longer and that the goddess has bigger plans for us all. I have failed you my alpha, my mate. I am no luna if I cannot bring my alpha the one thing we desire, and he must have to remain Alpha - an heir. Please find comfort in knowing that you have my blessing and you must produce an heir to protect us all! All I ask is that you please ALWAYS protect Morana in my absence. She is a weak omega wolf. At least give me this solace? I trust and believe in our bond and in you, Weston, my beloved. Al

Weston’s POV One Week Later Boston and I were stunned and angered to say the least after figuring out that Violet had outsmarted an Alpha and his Gamma. Not only that, but she was able to run away! It shouldn’t have bothered me this much, to this extent, but it did. I was growing panicked and more irritable to everyone around me. I began to become a hermit of sorts the past week after I realized Violet was a lycan. I started reading more seriously into lycan’s and their history to figure out what makes them so special. If Violet was a lycan, why were no others from her pack lycans? I know their rarity makes them special in and of itself, but before they went nearly extinct, what made them special? It’s been so long since a lycan was seen that even my history books from school wrote about it! That and the fact that lycans could find their mates before their beast ever emerged. I needed to know what kind of a mate the moon goddess had actually given me. Why did the moon goddes

Weston’s POV I woke up with a killer headache from all the Wolf Spirit’s I drank last night at the ball. Everything began to flood back to me from the night before as I slowly came out of my unconscious stupor. Rubbing my face as I sit up in bed trying to process my emotions, I decide to get up and shower. I was utterly shocked with pure amazement, pride, excitement, lust, and shame. She had been right all along. She had been telling the truth all along. I was just so determined to cling on to the past, that I couldn’t focus on what was right in front of me all along. Evander whined in my head as he also felt the guilt of not recognizing our second chance mate. Then, after the party ended, no one could find her. I knew I hurt her. I knew she was furious. I knew she hated me. I had been trying to force her to reject me this whole time after all. I should be celebrating victory, even if she didn’t reject me for running away. But I wasn’t. I was a fool and I was now alone. ‘

Violet’s POV I had no idea! Weston caught me so off-guard that I didn’t have time to even react before I was on the ground and receiving kick after kick of his fury. “Weston, please!” I cried out, begging him to stop. He stopped and I exhaled at the reprieve, praying the worst was over. Just as fast as I took the breath, my reprieve was over. Weston yanked me back up by my hair screaming, “You’ll NEVER be my mate!” Tears welled in my eyes. Pain radiated throughout my body and my stomach felt indescribable. Pains I never thought I could feel were felt in my abdomen. “Please…Weston…I’m your FATED MATE!” I cried out. Weston grew a dark gleam in his eyes at that and a sinister chuckle escaped him, “Fated mate? Fated mate?!” He shook me so hard my head started to spin, then he leaned in and whispered, “How could I ever be FATED to a wolfless, worthless, she-wolf?” And with that, he grabbed me by my hair and dragged me down the hall of the corridor we were in to the bathroom.

Violet’s POV Returning to sit at the Alpha’s table, I felt disappointed about the conversation I overheard, but I didn’t let anyone, especially not Boston, see that disappointment on my face. “I could go get you a glass of Wolf’s bubbly, or a bottle of water if you like?” Boston offered. “No thank you. I think I’ll just sit and rest my feet for a minute.” “Suit yourself! I’ll be right back! I’m gunna go grab a glass for myself,” he smirked before sauntering off. I caught a glimpse of Weston in the distance. He looked upset about something…like he was stewing over it. I quickly looked back to Boston, smiling and pretending to wave softly at him as he walked away. As I relaxed, enjoying the boisterous, happy and frolicking couples all around dancing and drinking and having TOO much of a good time…some of them anyway, I felt Iris come forward. She didn’t say anything and I could feel she was relaxed. Maybe she just wanted to come out more to people-watch with me. A few minutes

Violet’s POV Sitting at the Alpha table, I sat back happy to give my feet a brief moment of relief. Weston acted like his pants were on fire the minute we “played our part” in front of everyone long enough. He couldn’t wait to drop me off here and run off to his omega. I sat in the corner of the ballroom sipping my glass of ice water, feeling lonely and abandoned once again. I never felt so alone as I did in that moment looking all around me at the abundance, decadence, and happy pack members indulging in the pleasures surrounding them and not one person here was someone that even saw me. I was invisible to them all the moment Weston was not by my side. ‘Who cares if they don’t see us. We’re better than all of them anyway. If we’re invisible, it will be even easier to escape this place when we do!’ My heart fluttered and almost dropped into my stomach after hearing the sultry words coming from someone that was definitely NOT me, in my head! ‘You’re back!’ I was so happy to hear
Awakening His Lycan Queen Chapter 24
Weston’s POV “Please welcome the newly mated couple, the future Alpha Weston Mercury and Luna Violet Mercury!” My father bellowed out to the entire congregation of pack members, neighboring pack alpha’s and dignitaries. Violet and I gracefully descended the stairs from the balcony entrance to the ballroom. We used our grand dining hall for all of these kinds of events, which is why my mother designed it to be in the center of the entire packhouse. This room is where everyone comes for pack gatherings so she designed the space into a multipurpose room for large balls, galas, events, celebrations, ceremonies, and the likes while also serving the pack daily for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. This room serves as the heartbeat of our pack and I’ve always felt most comfortable within its confines. I just hoped that Violet would eventually figure that out and choose to make herself more present around here. I know she spends most of her time with Boston, hiding out in our library. I’v
