"So how do you want me to help you since the so-called guy isn't available?"Lady Suzy asked with her arm crossed under her breasts.
I stared at her with a sad and weak look on my face. I don't know what to do or say. Tomorrow is the day of our wedding when I will get married to the man that I've always hated, and run away from in my entire life.
I wonder why the moon goddess has to make him capture me. It seems fate is against me.
"Please help me. I don't want to become his wife and Luna,"I pleaded, looking at her with a sad look. She looked away, averting my gaze.
"What do you expect me to do? That's the only help I think I can render to you,"she said, and I shook my head with a sigh.
What am I going to do? I thought sadly as I watched Lady Suzy make her way toward the door.
I rushed toward her, grabbed the hem of her red rose long gown. She turned back, staring at me with a cold look on her face.
"What do you want this time?"she asked with a cold look on her face.
"I really need you to believe me. I don't want to have anything to do with him,"I said, and she scoffed.
"But how do you want to believe you?"she asked with a cold look on her face. I know it would be hard convincing her.
"Please just believe me. I'm ready to leave the Luna position to you if you manage to help me escape,"I said, not knowing when tears started rolling from my eyes.
'Please… Aurelia… run away from the Alpha,' I sniffed back the tears that rolled down from my eyes as I remembered the words of my foster mother who the Alpha killed.
Each time I remember her words, it makes me determined and adamant to leave the Alpha pack.
I don't think I would be able to survive it if I stayed long in the Alpha place.
"Please stop crying. It doesn't suit you,"I looked up as I felt an arm wrapped around my waist. I looked at Lady Suzy, who pulled me into a tight hug.
"Please can you help me out? I need to get out of this pack as soon as possible. I don't want to be in this pack,"I said, and she shook her head with a sigh.
"I promise to help you get out of this pack before the marriage takes place,"she said, and I snapped my head at her in an instant.
What!
"Would you help me escape from the pack?"I asked, and she nodded her head gently.
"Yes of course. But only on one condition,"she said, and I looked at her with a confused look as I pulled away from the hug.
"What condition could it be? I don't need to do it,"I said, and she smiled gently while patting my shoulder.
"If you would help me become the Luna of the pack. I'm ready to help you leave the pack without being caught,"she said, and I shook my head with a sigh.
"Okay, I don't mind. Not like I care about the Luna position anyway,"I scoffed, and she nodded her head gently. I smiled gently as she flaunted her hair.
"I'm going to become Luna very soon,"she muttered, and I scoffed inwardly.
This life could be really hard and cruel to anyone. The same position and person that I'm running away from, is the same person that she's running after.
"Yes but we've to come up with a perfect idea. So please don't make any mistake while trying to help me escape,"I said, and she nodded her head gently.
"You won't get caught so you don't have anything to worry about,"she said, and I shook my head with a sigh.
"Deal, right?"she asked, and I nodded my head affirmatively.
"Deal…"I stopped midway, gulped down into nothing as I stared at the maid, who walked into the room without knocking.
"Why can't you knock?"Suzy asked angrily as she glared at the maid, who bowed her head in fear.
"I'm sorry my lady,"the maid apologized.
"What do you want?"Suzy asked.
"The Alpha seeks your attention, my lady,"she said, and I arched her brow.
Seek her attention? Does that mean that the Alpha wants to have sex with her like he used to do before I come to the pack? I don't know why but I felt somehow sad. I shrugged off the feeling.
I looked away with a sad look on my face as the maid glanced at me with disgust and hatred.
I wonder what I could have done to her to deserve such a hateful look. I decided to forget it even though it's hard.
"We will talk later, okay?"she said, and I nodded my head gently at her.
"Okay bye,"I said, and she flashed a smile at me before walking away.
I exhaled heavily as I slumped hard on the large couch beside me. I don't know why but I'm somehow happy that I'm going to escape from the Alpha pack very soon.
But what if the Alpha caught me before I could escape from the pack? Wouldn't the punishment be much? Wouldn't he punish me badly? This question sent a cold shiver down my spine.
I looked at my stomach, snapping out of my thoughts as my stomach made a growling and gurgling sound. I'm really hungry.
I've been starving myself because of the fear of being the wife of the so-called Alpha. I stared at the food which is well reserved on the table. I decided to eat it since I've little hope that I would be able to leave the pack and start another life.
I opened the cover of the plate, gulped down into nothing as I stared at the mouth-watering meal in the play. I picked up the cutleries from the table to dig into the food, but I stopped midway as a knock landed at the door.
"Who's that?"I asked with a groan, and almost immediately a maid walked into the house. She bowed her head gently. "Good day my lady,"she greeted.
"What do you want?"I asked angrily, but she scoffed.
"The Alpha calls for you,"she said, and I growled out. I glared at her with a confused look on my face.
What did he mean? What does he want this time? I asked myself but I couldn't get an answer to it.
"I don't want to see any of you. Get out of here,"I roared, but she didn't flinch nor move. She crossed her arm under her breasts.
"Not like it's your decision to make,"she said, and I gasped out in shock.
What! What did she just say? My eyes widened in shock.
I couldn't believe that a maid could ever talk to me in this way.
The Alpha is supposed to be to blame.
F**k you, Ryan.
Natalie "What did… you just say?"I stammered, and she scoffed. "I'm sure you're not deaf,"she said, glaring at me with a cold and dangerous look. I know becoming a Luna or bethroned to the Alpha would be something very hard and difficult for me. I haven't become the Luna of the pack but I'm being hated by the maids. I'm sure they're jealous even though they weren't aware that I'm not interested in becoming their Luna. I wonder how my stay in this pack as Luna is going to be, because I've a weird feeling that I won't be able to escape from him. I just have to accept my fate. "Hey,"I called. "You'd better attend to the Alpha before he gets angry at you,"she said, ignoring my statement. "Tell him that I wouldn't come and there's nothing he can do about it"I snapped at her angrily, but she didn't bother to look at me, instead she hissed and walked out of my room, slamming the door shut. Ahh… I screamed out as I ruffled my hair angrily like a mad person. I clenched my fist
Natalie "What are you doing here?"Lady Suzy asked, clearing the tension in the room. I gulped down into nothing as I stared at the guard, who glanced at us with an intense gaze. "Were you stalking us?"she asked, and he nodded his head affirmatively. "I don't have a choice, my lady,"he said, and my eyes widened in shock. What! He was stalking us? Does that mean he'd listened to my conversation with Lady Suzy? "Why would you just do such a thing? I'm going to make sure you get punished,"she threatened. "I was only following instructions that the Alpha gave to me,"he said, and I shook my head with a sigh. "I'd like you to return to your room,"he said as he turned his gaze to me. I snapped out of my thoughts, and looked at him with a cold look, trying to look strong. "You can't order me around. I can do whatever I want,"I said, glaring at him, and he scoffed. "It's the order of the Alpha so I'd like you to obey me,"he said as he stepped backward, gesturing to me to wal
Natalie "Wow! You look so pretty," "She look so dead drop gorgeous," "I'm sure the Alpha wouldn't be able to take his eyes from her," I wasn't surprised that the maids were slowly interacting with me. Maybe because they think I'm going to be the Luna tonight, and the Alpha wouldn't want anyone to abuse his Luna in any way. Not like I'm interested in the title. I shook my head with a sigh, trying my best to mask the sad expression that mounted on my face as I listened to the compliments from the maid. I should be happy hearing such compliments but I'm sad that I'm not getting engaged to the supposed man of my heart and dream, but a ruthless Alpha that I'm supposed to run away from. Though I try to act strong but I can't withhold the pain that stings my heart. It's really painful and sad to me. I snapped out of my thoughts as a loud bang landed at the door. My heart flew out for a second in fear. I tilted my head in confusion, same with the maids. "It's time already," "The
Natalie "Ahh…" My heart skipped in fear, and I screamed out in pain as my feet tripped over a log of wood. I let out a sigh of relief as I stared at Brian, who caught me by my waist firmly before I could fall. "You should be careful from now on. We still have a long way to go,"he said with a worried look on his face, and I nodded my head gently. "Thank you,"I muttered as I moved away from her grip. I clenched to the hem of my clothes, breathing heavily with my heart pounding heavily against its cage. "Please don't be tired. We still have a long way to go,"he said as he placed his hand on my forehead. I shook my head negatively with a sigh. "To be sincere with you, I'm really tired,"I said as I bent low, breathing heavily with my body drenched with sweat. We've been running for more than three hours, and we haven't gotten to where we're heading to. We couldn't use our wolf speed or form because it would make it easier for the Alpha to track our scents which isn't what I wa
Ryan "It's the time,"I said calmly as I stretched my hand at Aurelia, who was seated on the chair with a red wine veil pulled over her face. I let out a soft smile from my lips as she obediently held my hand. Her hand felt stronger than it used to feel. With our hands crooked, we both walked up to the priest, who's standing in front of a log of burning fire. He was chanting some incantation around the fire as he awaited our presence. "Please move this way,"the priest said, separating us from each other. We stood at the front of each other even though the burning fire was between us. "Please recite after me,"the priest said as he poured some substance like sand into the burning fire. "Ye moon goddess…"he called out, and I recited after him. I stared at Aurelia with a confused look as she recited after the priest without missing any single words, and she wasn't acting reluctant. What's wrong? I couldn't help but ask myself because of her sudden change of attitude which seems
Natalie "Hey, take this and put it on,"I felt a sting of pain in my heart as he dropped the wedding gown on the floor before me with a cold look on his face. "Why are you still staring at me? Or do you want me to put it on for you?"he asked in an angry tone even with a seductive smile, beaming on his face. I reached out to the white wedding gown on the floor, clenched it to my chest with a sad look on my face. Beads of tears rolled down from my eyes as I stared at wedding clothes in my hand. I never had thought that I'm still going to put on these clothes again. I'd thought I escaped from him, and I wouldn't get married to him but he caught me. Now I'm going to get married to the man that I'm supposed to run away from, a heartless and ruthless man. Why are you doing this to me, moon goddess? Why me? I questioned myself as I stared at the ceiling. "Can you… excuse me…"I shuttered, and he scoffed. "So that you can escape from the pack with the same guy, right?"he asked wit
Natalie I snapped out of my thoughts, looking up in an instant as a knock landed at the door. "Come in,"I muttered with a sigh as I ruffled my hair with a frustrated look even though I tried as much as possible to mask my expression. "What is it?"I asked with a cold and cracked voice as I stared at the maid in blue uniform, who walked in with a bow. "I'd come to ask what you would like to eat. Or do you want to have breakfast with the Alpha, my lady?"I glared at the maid, took a deep breath, trying my best to control my anger at the moment. I'm getting used to the so-called *my lady* greetings. I wish there's something I could do about it but it seems there isn't. I'm their Luna. As much as I don't want to be their Luna, I've been made the Luna, and there's nothing I can do about it because I'm tied to the Alpha. "No! I don't want anything. I don't want to eat with anyone,"I said, almost yelling. "But my lady…" "Get out,"I yelled out, and she flinched back in fear. She wal
Natalie What! I gasped out in shock, staring at her with a confused look as she threw hateful glares at me. "Why are you acting surprised? You lured me into helping so that you could claim him to yourself,"her voice suddenly trailed off, and took a deep breath as though she was waiting for me to speak. "What do you mean? I don't know what you're saying,"I stammered, staring at her with a glimpse of sad look on my face. "What was I expecting you to say? I wasn't aware that you're nothing but a filthy bitch that wants to be Luna at all cost,"she hissed, and spat on the floor, staring at me with a disdainful look. "Oh! You're Luna anyway. I should have known that you're only after him,"she said with her voice filled with anger and hatred. I know she's trying her best not to pounce on me, knowing Ryan is going to get angry at her. "I wasn't after him. I didn't know it was going to end this well… I don't know what I'd done to deserve this awful statement from you,"I said, tryi
Ryan"How was the shopping you went for?" I asked, and she sighed deeply. "It's quite good and bad,""Can you tell me more about it?" I asked, and she smiled. "It's frustrating how the customers in the shopping mall keep bowing to me every single time," "This made me feel uncomfortable," she said, and I chuckled. "Don't laugh at me," she snapped at me. "I'm sorry but you'd feel comfortable about it since you're officially my Luna," I said, and she nodded her head gently."I think you're right but it's not quite…" she suddenly stopped and rushed into the bathroom. "What's wrong?" I asked myself and stood up from the chair and walked into the bathroom. I shook my head with a sigh as I watched her puke into the clean sink. I couldn't help but wonder what was wrong with her. She has been vomiting frequently for the past two days. I can't count how many times she vomited today. This can't possibly be a sickness. What symptoms could it be? "I need you to visit the doctor since you'
Natalie"Thank you for everything. I love you," I said and pulled him into a tight hug. "I should be thanking you instead. I missed you," he said, pulled away from the hug, and kissed my lips. I'm glad to have him in my life again. The last time I heard that he was killed in the forest, I felt empty and lonely. I'm glad he's back to fill me up with happiness. "You're the best that could ever happen to me," he smiled and caressed my cheeks. "Why are you telling me what I'm supposed to say to you?" He asked. "Because you're the best," I said."Of course, I'm," he smiled proudly, and I scoffed. "How do I look?" I asked as I stared at myself in the golden gown. "You look so hot and sexy that I want to eat you up right now," he said naughtily, and I blushed. "Stop flirting with me and focus," I said. "Yeah I know but that wouldn't stop me from eating you up tonight," he said and crooked my hand into his hand. "It's the time for the celebration, Alpha," a loud voice sounded shortl
Ryan"Doctor," I called repeatedly as I walked into the hospital with Natalie in my arms. She looked pale and lifeless but I don't want to believe that she'd died. How could she die when she knows that I need her at this moment? I asked myself but I couldn't get an answer to it. "Where is the doctor?" I asked the nurse who rushed toward me and pushed the stretcher forward. I placed Natalia gently on the stretcher and pushed her hurriedly to the ICU. I looked up as the door pulled open and the doctor walked in with a stethoscope hung around his neck. "This is the patient sir," the nurse explained, and he walked closer to her. He placed the stethoscope on her chest."Get the oxygen machine to this ward right away," he ordered, and the maid rushed out of the ICU ward. Within two minutes, she returned with a machine that was beeping. He took a material like a nose mask and wore it on her nose. That must be the oxygen. I watched as the system beeped. "Please you'll have to excuse us
Natalie"Please don't!" I screamed out angrily as Damien forced a silver dagger into his stomach. Ryan fell on the floor with blood gushing out of her stomach. My heart skipped in fear as I watched Ryan lay on the floor in his pool of blood. "Damien stop!" I yelled out angrily and rushed toward Damien with a cold look on my face. I fell on my knee and held Ryan's hand firmly with tears rolling down from my eyes. "Please wake up," I cried as I held Ryan's hand. I shook his body continually. I watched as Damien smiled victoriously. I jerked up from the bed sweating profusely. I took a deep breath as I reminded myself that it was a dream. I'm glad that it was indeed a dream because I wonder what could have happened. "What's wrong with you, my lady?" She asked with a worried look on my face. "Where is Ryan?" I asked worriedly with my heart pounding heavily. Though it was a dream, it felt real and I believed it. Something has to be done before it's too late. I can't afford anythi
NatalieI forced my eyelid to open. I closed my eyes quickly as the sun cast its ray into my eyes. The brightness had almost blinded my eyes. I opened my eyes slowly after my eyes adjusted to the brightness that illuminated the room. "How are you, Natalie? How are you feeling?" I looked up as I heard a cold and familiar voice above me. A soft gasp escaped from my lips as my gaze landed on Ryan. He stared at me intensely with his green forest eyes piercing into mine. "Who is this?" I asked myself, hoping I wasn't seeing things. I blinked my eyes countlessly to be sure, and it was Ryan that was standing before me. "You don't need to be surprised. This is Ryan," he said, and I scoffed inwardly, finding it hard to believe. How could I just believe him? "Denver?" I asked, and he scoffed. I saw him last night when I lost consciousness but I thought it was my hallucinations. I was seeing Ryan instead of Denver. Is this not a dream? I pinched myself to be sure and it wasn't. This is tr
Ryan"Natalie," I called out as she fell on the floor probably from the shock. I knew she was listening to us until I heard a heavy thud. I rushed toward her with a worried look on my face. She stared at me with a weak and fainted look on her face. "Is this Ryan?" She asked in a weak tone, and I nodded my head affirmatively. "Are you okay?" I asked worriedly and carried her in my arms in a bridal style. "Please wake up," I said as her eyelids were forced close. She opened her eyes slowly and trailed her hand on my face. "Is this Ryan?" She asked again, and I nodded my head in agreement. "Yeah. This is Ryan. This is your mate. I'm back for you. Please hang in there for me," I said, and she shook her head negatively. "I'm sorry for pushing you away," she said and fell unconscious. I growled deeply and my voice echoed heavily around the pack. I glared at Damien who stared at me still dealing with the shock. "You'll pay for this. I'll be back for you," I threatened, carried her, a
DamienI walked into the dungeon with my hand crossed behind my back. I smirked at him as he stared at me with a weak and fainted look. He looked miserable and tattered even though I'm yet to start with him. He's going to regret interfering in my affair again. "Look who we have here," I said and squatted low before him. He glared at me with an angry look but he didn't utter a word. Maybe the torture has made him lose his voice. "Do you like the way the guard treated you? I'm sure you do because that was a premium service," I said, and he scoffed. "What came over you that made you think you can talk back to me, huh?""It's surprising that you can't do anything to save yourself. You're just weak and vulnerable,""It's funny that you think high of yourself just because I told you to protect my Luna," I said, and he growled weakly. "She's not yours," he snarled, and my eyes flashed red. "What did you just say?" I asked hue he didn't say anything. He remained silent instead. I smi
Damien"What a gut! How dare she mention Ryan's name?" I asked myself with an angry and cold look on my face. I punched the wall beside me as I stomped out of her room. I clenched my fist and bit my lower lips trying to control the anger that took over me. At that moment, I just wanted to squeeze her small neck in my palm. I'm glad that I was able to control myself. I won't want to kill her and my unborn child inside her. I can't wait for her to give birth. It's three months to her delivery. I'm going to make sure she pays for mentioning his name. Who is Ryan? He's dead and gone forever. I reminded myself as I climbed down the stairs to my study room. How could she mention Ryan's name? And who was that guy that has been sending her messages? Or is he truly alive? I asked myself, finding it hard to think straight. Ryan can't possibly be alive? He'd better not survive because I won't hesitate to rip out his heart and soul this time. After all the months of trying to win her hear
Natalie"What do you think you're doing?" Damien asked with an angry look on his face as Denver held his hand firmly. He was unable to free his hand from Denver grip. "You're not allowed to lay a hand on me… on the Luna of the pack," Denver reprimanded him with a fierce look on his face. A soft gasp escaped from my lips, and I stared at Denver in pity and care. I stared at him for a while, signaling him to apologize but he remained adamant. Why is he behaving this way? I asked myself but I couldn't get an answer to it. I'm very sure Damien wouldn't let this slide and pass away. I watched them shocked and perplexed by Denver's adamant and arrogant attitude. What is he doing?"How dare you interfere in my business, huh?" Damien asked in an angry tone as he snatched his hand away from Denver's grip. "That's the job I'm paid for to protect her at all cost so I can't watch you abuse her in my presence," Denver replied coldly. "How dare you talk back to me?" He asked and slapped him
