Alessia's POV Will he leave me now? No, he promised to stay by me. Was that why he had been giving me an attitude? He slept with her? When? I suddenly recalled when Phoenix came to me at the party. He had come alone, Gracelynn was no where to be found beside him. And Adrian, I gasped in pain as it dawned on me. The door opened immediately and I met his scurrying eyes which turned calm when his eyes met mine. "Alessia!" He whispered softly and Gracelynn walked out to us. She smirked at me and moved closer to me. "So you have been lying to us. You were his chosen Mate not his Fated Mate. I can't believe you've been trying to take my place all along." She spat angrily on me. "Gracelynn!!" Adrian called warningly. I sniffed back my tears and made sure it didn't drop in front of them. I know my heart has been shattered to multiple pieces but I won't be weak in front of them. I would never be! I have promised never to be weak in front of everyone and that because I got him. But even
Alessia's POV I made my way into the villa, Adrian's villa. I froze at the doorway sniffing in the villa once again before leaving. I'm here to pack my load and call Phoenix to pick me up. I wouldn't be staying with him now. Adrian hadn't gotten home yet because I left school early. I don't want to see his face. I couldn't believe I was so excited about tonight, that he would surely mark me and make me his. Gracelynn succeeded in snatching Phoenix from me, making him reject me even though she wasn't his mate and now, she did snatch Adrian. I packed my expensive stuff and old clothes that were daring to me. I didn't pack up the clothes that Adrian had bought for me. He had bought so many expensive dresses for me. I left it behind and zipped up my bag. I rolled the bag out with me to the living room. I stood beside the couch and glanced around the house for the last time. I doubt I would come back here. This would be my last time here. Tears threatened to fall but I sniffed it back.
Alessia's POV I sat beside him in the car booming with country music as we headed towards the boutique. We were going for an outing. He had asked me out on a date and wanted to take me out. My dresses were old and he wanted to buy classy and new ones for me. The new ones I had were from Adrian and I didn't bring it along with me. I didn't want to take anything pertaining to him with me. I left everything that linked us up at his villa. I'm sure he would have seen it but I mind less. He parked his car in the garage and got down hastily. He rushed to my side and opened the door for me. I got down and swinged my hair backward with a smiling face. "Thank you dear." I gave him a peck on his cheek and he chuckled out. "The status really fits me right." I said with pride and held his hands, entwined with mine. "Yes. You fit being a Luna." He complimented and avoided my gaze. I smiled widely and rested on his arms. I'm uninterested in him but I've gotten comfortable with him. I've settl
Alessia's POV "Them? If I can I will but.…" "You should. They really hurt us. To be sincere, I wasn't expecting that and it came as a shock." He confessed. I turned to look at him as I frowned in surprise. "You looked normal. You really looked unaffected." "Yes I did. I was just trying to be strong. I think I lost interest in Gracelynn a long time ago but failed to find out. I wasn't really affected that she was leaving me. I was surprised and taken aback by the sudden change. And I'm glad I have you here with me now. I can rectify my mistake and win you back." He sighed and focused on the road ahead. "It's slightly to my benefit." He chuckled. I found the words offensive but he is right, it's to his own good. "You should forget him. He chooses another over you but he can't help it. The mate bonds with her and lycans need their Fated Mate by their side for a longer reign." Really, the mate bound my foot. But he was able to deny the mate bond and rejected me, why can't it happen
Alessia's POV After observing some days of holiday, we are back to normal campus life but a lot has changed about me, I'm not who I used to be, some other girl has taken over my place. I mean in Adrian's life. Phoenix has tried getting close but I don't think it's right to give him my heart, I was betrayed by him weeks back after many years of our friendship. As I stand quietly by the railings of the third floor of the administrative building, waiting for Phoenix to go in and get his files, Gracelynn walks by holding hands with Adrian. My mind flashes back to those times we were always walking together, people, both students and lecturers alike respecting me because of him. She makes a mocking sound so as to attract my attention. I turn back to look at her, at them, at first, I pretended I wasn't aware of their presence. "Hey girl," my face changes quickly into a frown as she addresses me this way, with a bull's voice. I would challenge her if Adrian didn't walk with her up here. I
Alessia's POV In the evening, Phoenix and Adrian go to play table tennis in the court, it's surprising how they are bonding with each other, whether it's because that we have interchanged, Gracelynn being with him, and I who was with him, now being with Phoenix. As I sit on my bed, an idea comes to mind. I would love to go closer to those who are higher than Adrian, he's now looking down on me but I want to stand up and high that even Gracelynn wouldn't have the guts to talk to me. "I need to meet someone who will introduce me to the Queen's Cycle." It's just a wish, I don't know how possible this is. I don't know anyone, I need to start working on myself. These are the only species of werewolves that are higher than the lycans. They are believed to be direct descendants of the moon goddess and have the ability to travel to the moon to meet her. I'll meet her tomorrow, for now I have to call my friend, Brenda. Phoenix was talking of having sex with me tonight when he comes back bu
Alessia's POV "Why wouldn't I be excited, come with me baby. I've got a mate!" "Oh, my goodness!" I jump up from where I was and lands right on her body. She's twenty-one but hadn't found her mate until now. "That's why I wish to go see my cousin, I would be celebrating my mating ceremony at the sunshine city." Anxiety sets up in mind, why does she wants to celebrate her mating ceremony there and not in our pack? I'm moved to ask her. "Why baby?" "My mate is the descendant of the moon goddess. Since you are my best friend. I'm taking you along." "Only me?" "Yes." She gestures to me to go continue so we go off. "Remember Phoenix wouldn't let you go out the easily when he returns, I saw him while coming. He's still playing with Adrian." If not for anything, this gingers me to go back to what I was doing. I'm too excited to continue without shaky hands. She walks over and hits me playfully on the back. "Come on, baby. I can see the excitement is even affecting you more than me. Le
Alessia's POV I turn to look at her, slightly pushing off my face and giving a stern look as if I didn't hear what she just said. "I'll really appreciate it if you elaborated on it. Which guys?" She gives a short laughter, for a few seconds, she says nothing but focuses on the road, later, she turns her face briefly towards me, then in a whisper, she says it. "Adrian, Phoenix." She turns her face forward again, looking at the road before her, here it's already getting dark and that's when I fancy going out most especially as there is tight security everywhere. They are the pack police who patrol and station everywhere. In less urban locations, we have the wolf patrol, these involves patrolling wolves who protects members of the packs against rogues and other pack wolves that loves to walk at night, looking for wolves to attack. This had stopped in the past few months due to the heightened security, now you could run around the woods without fear of being attacked. "Hmm," I take a
