Christina's pov

The words hung in the air, sharp and unyielding. Marcel's voice was calm, but his eyes blazed with the promise of destruction if I refused.

I turned my head sharply, breaking his hold on me, and I looked at Melissa and Becca, remembering all that they had done for me so far. They didn't even know me properly—in fact, they probably had reason to hate me since I was their half-sister—but so far, all they had done was protect me.

Now he was threatening me with their deaths. My death I could deal with; after all, a life with him wouldn't be much of a life at all. But I couldn't let them die, not after all they had done for me.

It felt as though he had threatened me with Peter. I was unable to save him, but maybe I could save them.

Becca had her eyes shut, her face ash-white with pain as she struggled against the guard holding her. He was hurting her, I could tell, but he did not care. If he was ordered to kill her, he would not hesitate.

Melissa was glaring at both Marcel

    Christina's povWell, speak of the devil! There, Alpha Xavier was standing before Alpha Marcel. The minute I saw him, I stiffened.Suddenly, the stench of blood and ash in the air did not irritate me anymore. It filled me with a deadly instinct directed towards Alpha Xavier. Suddenly, all the men I had killed today who were being dragged out early now did not fill me with remorse anymore.They deserved every bit of what I did to them. They were following their Savior's orders, and I had no choice but to eliminate them. It was either them or me, and I was glad I chose myself.Alpha Xavier hadn't seen me yet. He was barking out orders to the men around him to clear up the debris.What were the odds of me transforming now and ripping his throat? I didn't feel physically up to it, but surely my wolf would be stronger.As I thought of it, Isaac stopped beside the guards and cleared his throat. "They are ready, Alpha."Alpha Marcel turned, and so did Xavier. I felt an odd satisfaction at hi

    Marcel's povThe drive to the Black Moon Pack was long and silent, but I didn't mind. I wouldn't have had it any other way; after all, what was there for me and the lady beside me to talk about?Christina was her name—a weird name for a werewolf, but who was I to judge? She was shifted as far from me as she could, squeezing herself against the door like she couldn't stand being in my presence, and yet I knew she felt the electricity sizzling between us.This would certainly be a fun adventure with her. I would love to watch her fight her attraction to me and know that, in the end, she would bend to my will. Everyone always did.I took the last bend, the gates of our pack house looming before us—tall and imposing against the backdrop of the setting sun. That was how long it took to get here.A glance in my side-view mirror as I sent a mind link to whoever was guarding the gates to open it. The other car was right behind me; there had been no incident so far. Her sisters were wise enoug

    Marcel's povAs we entered, the hallway echoed with the shuffle of footsteps. A few servants who had witnessed the scene downstairs watched us with weary eyes, even as they went about their business.I disliked our slow movement, but Christina could not go any faster. The guards were short of dragging her now, and I didn't want that to happen, so I let us walk at her pace. Her sisters were trailing behind us, the guards flanking them with their hands hovering over their weapons.It was good that they were wary and ready for any attack. Becca's fiery glare and Melissa's defiance were unmistakable, but they were smart enough not to act. I wasn't fooled into thinking they would not try something later, though.We reached the point where the hallway branched into three, and I stopped, turning to the guards. "Take them to separate rooms," I ordered. They're not to leave until I give permission."Melissa stepped forward. "You can't just do that!"I cocked my head in her direction. Normally,

    Christina's povI barely noticed the hands guiding me down the hallway. All I knew was that I was moving. It was a miracle I was still on my feet because I couldn't even feel them anymore.It took me a lot of effort to look to my side to see who was guiding me along, and I was met with a kind smile from a woman in a blue and black checkered uniform—a maid, just like the ones Elsa and I used to imagine living in castles. Go figure.I smiled back at her, but I doubt it came out as a smile. Probably a grimace. The thought of Elsa only made matters worse and brought the flashbacks to me as vivid as they were some minutes ago.All I wanted was to stop, just for a moment, to sit down, to breathe, to process the nightmare I was forced to live and relive. But apparently, no one cared about what I wanted.As I was led towards a destination that I had no interest in, I kept seeing them flashing before my eyes like a blur:My mother's lifeless body on the floor, blood pooling around her, blood d

    Author's povI hate this place, was all Becca could think as she sat at the dinner table. Even with all its grand hallways, sculptures in the courtyard, and the priceless tapestries on the walls that were to die for, she still didn't like it.Becca glanced at the massive chandelier that cast a golden light across the mahogany table, remembering when she was younger and wished to visit the Alpha King's pack house. Well, be careful what you wish for, for her wish had been granted at the worst moment and in the worst way. Now, all she wanted to do was return home with her sister.But she could not turn back time, so she wouldn't agree to go on the mission to get Christina. And even if she could, what was the guarantee that she would disagree? Christina was also her sister, albeit illegitimate, but she couldn't just let them kill her.She cleared her throat, deciding to focus on the present. "We need to discuss our release," Becca said firmly, her gaze directed at Marcel sitting on the ot

    Author's povChristina wished the only empty seat at the table was not beside Marcel. It had been done that way because the table was large enough to fit five more chairs.As soon as she sat down, Melissa leaned over the table and hissed, "What did they do to you?""It's so nice that our little Omega has decided to join us for dinner," Sandra said, interrupting whatever conversation was about to happen between Melissa and Christina.Truthfully, she was a bit disappointed when she saw Christina. Not only was she an Omega, but she also looked quite plain. Her emerald green eyes looked sunken, and she was very scared as they darted around everybody in the room. Her skin was tanned, not the porcelain skin she desired in young women, and her hair looked quite normal—dark chocolate.She looked so boring that it took her everything not to yawn when she first caught sight of her from where she was standing over the balcony. But then she had done something to make her notice. When her eyes sta

    Marcel's povAfter Christina's statement, silence fell over the room, but was broken by a murmured conversation between Melissa and Becca.Arden was the first to finish his meal. He declined dessert, muttering something about having a task to complete for me.I nodded absentmindedly, gazing at Christina. I had been doing that quite a lot for the past few minutes, and though I'd like to tell myself that it was out of curiosity, I know it was more than that.She seemed so fidgety, her hands trembling every time she held the spoon and brought it up to her mouth. For some reason, I wanted to calm her down, to tell her that she had nothing to fear and that I would take care of her.I shook my head immediately. Where had that thought come from? I had no intentions of making her at ease, in fact, no obligations to her whatsoever, so why did I suddenly feel like comforting her?I shook my head again, annoyed at myself. From the corner of my eyes, I could see my mother glance at me, probably w

    Christina's povI sat on the edge of my bed, staring at the faint patterns the just-rising sunlight made on the tile floors and walls as it filtered through my heavy curtains.Sleep had been elusive through the night, only catching a few hours of tossing and turning. Finally, I decided I couldn't take it any longer, and I decided to stay up instead.For the past two hours, I had been bored to death, having enough time now to think about every depressing thing that could happen and trying to desperately distract myself.When I asked Marcel for a device, I wasn't completely out of my mind. I needed a distraction, or else I could go insane with the gravity of grief that seemed to overwhelm me.But of course, he had refused I thought he would agree for a moment, but I was wrong. It was silly of me to even make such a request when he would not agree.And what was that excuse for telling all my friends about them? I wasn't three, for goodness sake! I didn't have to keep my mouth shut.Besid

    Christina's POV"I'm sure I just gave an order," Marcel said, taking a step forward and glaring down at all of them. I wondered if he hadn't seen the problem at hand yet.I wanted to reach out to him and explain what I could sense going on in the people's minds, but I stayed rooted to the spot."Why the sudden hesitation?" he asked.At his words, some people bowed their heads and knelt, but others remained standing with defiant looks on their faces.I watched as Elder Garrick stepped forward and began to speak. "Alpha Marcel, we serve you, there's no doubt about that," he began. "But we cannot serve her." He looked pointedly at me, and I hung my head, in shame, causing my cheeks to burn."She's an Omega, and even though you have mated her, we cannot accept her as our Luna."Hearing him voice out my fears made them real. The rejection stung. Alpha Marcel glanced sharply, from me to Elder Garrick, his brows furrowed in anger or confusion—I couldn't tell.I was suddenly hit with the urge

    Christina's POV"The Hex is wearing off already!" I said, astonished, as Pierce started to move her hands."You all have to go now," Luna Sandra said. She gripped my hand, and I stopped myself from pulling away. I didn't want to be anywhere near this woman; I didn't want anything to do with her schemes."You just have to transform. Once they see you in your wolf form, they will know—""Know what?" Marcel and I said in unison."Just transform," Sandra urged."I can't!" I snapped, defeated. "I've been trying. I can't transform, it's not working!""You have to try harder. It's your only chance at winning this battle and finally being accepted.""What do you mean?" I asked, really confused now. She was talking in parables.“Guys we have to do something”. Becca said, drawing my attention. I followed her gaze to Pierce, who was now starting to sit up."I see it now, even though I didn't see it before, you know," Sandra said. She reached up and touched my hair lightly, and I was too stunned

    Author's POVSandra's breathing was ragged, blood trickling from a wound on her side as she ran forward and raised a trembling hand. Summoning that burst of air to snuff out Pierce's flame took great more energy than she had ever imagined. But if she did not act now, there would never be a second chance.Her exhausted eyes settled on Pierce, who blinked in shock. Before Pierce could react, Sandra muttered an incantation under her breath. She only managed to graze her forehead though, as Pierce threw out a hand and shoved her away.But the incantation was enough. A shocking pulse of energy rippled outward, knocking everyone back a step. Pierce gasped, her entire body rigid. Her arms froze, suspended in mid-air, and the flame that had flickered there went out at once. Her mouth opened in a snarl, but no sound came out—only a harsh, shallow gasp, as if she'd just been deprived of all her power.Sandra lost her footing, falling against the wall. She could not hold herself up because the

    Author’s POVThe air inside the burning estate was thick with smoke, making every breath labored. Flames roared through the hallways, devouring everything in sight. Christina held on to Marcel’s flank desperately, trying not to get thrown off as his wolf pushed forward at an alarming speed. Her sisters managed to run alongside her group which surprised Christina. People throughout the estate corridor panicked while their footsteps chased each other while they attempted to escape. The wolves who shifted from human form rushed towards them as they turned the corner while showing wild fear in their eyes.Their recognition of Marcel triggered their ears to swivel in his direction as they displayed a mixture of panic and worry on their faces. Here was someone who would lead them to safety. "Alpha," one of them said through the mind link, his eyes locking with Marcel’s. "Where do we go?"Marcel growled low in his throat, his mind torn between his responsibility as their Alpha and the urge

    Author's POVBecca paced back and forth in the small room anxiously, her arms clasped firmly across her body. She glanced at the door every once in a while, hoping it would open.It never did, however, that only made her angrier. What was happening outside, anyway? She hated being trapped in here.Melissa, cross-legged on the bed, frowned. Her sister's behavior was starting to annoy her now. "Relax, Becca, you need to,""I cannot," Becca cried out, running her hand through her hair. "We have not heard anything since the curse was lifted."Even Alice has nothing new to tell us. How do we even know if Christina's okay?"Melissa bit her lip, exhaling. Alice was one of the Maids who worked here that they had befriended—she usually brought updates from whatever news she had gathered around the Estate. But for the past two days, she had nothing new to tell them.Melissa felt the same way but didn't want to voice her worries. Becca would just get more anxious. "She's still alive, at least,"

    Christina's povI folded my arms across my chest the moment the door was shut by my father. It was just me and Marcel now, and I wasn't feeling too pleased with him."You barely gave us 5 minutes," I accused."Please," he replied with a smile and my frown deepened. "It's been 10 minutes.""Still, that's not fair! I haven't seen him in months, and you think 10 minutes is enough for a reunion?""You'll be able to talk with him at length any other day you see him here," he replied, taking a step closer. "You have to prepare yourself for a public address as the Luna, and that cannot wait.""This is not fair!" I said, raising my voice a bit. "And my sisters, who you won't let me see either, he's the only one I have left. Since I never met my mother and there's no chance of me knowing her, can't you at least give me the freedom to speak with my father?"Marcel narrowed his eyes. "You don't know your mother?" he asked."Don't act like you don't know the story," I sneered. "I was a baby when

    Chapter 65Christina's POVI hadn’t seen Marcel in more than a day, and I couldn’t tell if I should be relieved or discomfited by this. I just didn’t know how to feel about all that had transpired between us and so I dreaded running into him.A small part of me was thankful he hadn’t called me to him.I had half expected him to force me into a conversation I wasn't ready for, but instead, surprisingly, there was just silence.Even Luna Sandra hadn't called for me. For her to overlook our classes and not demand my presence meant she was still furious. Honestly, I didn't care. After all, she said, I had no idea if I could control my tongue if I saw her again.So I spent the last day holed up in my room, trying to read a book even though my mind refused to focus on the words. Every few seconds, I would catch my thoughts drifting back to him—his hands, his lips, his mark on my neck that still tingled faintly. And then I would proceed to stare at the wall and relive the moment for a while

    Christina’s POVWarmth became the first thing I noticed as an unflinching steady warmth that started to put me back to sleep. The subtle thudding sensation at the part of my neck near my hairline caused me to take a sharp intake of breath.All memories from the previous night's events erupted in my mind at the same time showing images of Marcel and his marking along with his speaking and gentle touching.I opened my eyes to survey my surroundings but closed them right away when I discovered that I remained in his bedroom as I refused to confront reality. Why not take me to my bed to sleep during that night? Being here made it more real.I still felt him. His absence from the bed did not diminish the weight of his presence which filled the entire space. The low voices made me peer from under my eyelids to check where they were coming from. The door was partially open, so the voices were relatively straightforward, and I recognized them immediately. Marcel and Luna Sandra. I stayed sti

    The passion between us was intense, yet I longed to draw her nearer. At this moment, I had no awareness of our surroundings. Even if I attempted to focus, I couldn't. The sensation of her underneath me, her form rising to meet mine with each urgent motion, was all that mattered now.Christina's breathy sounds filled the air around us, her nails digging into my back as I pushed deeper. My name escaped her lips like a soft request."Marcel..."I let out a low sound releasing her nipple and nestling my face where her neck met her shoulder. Her heartbeat was strongest. My teeth skimmed the area, and something deeper than instinct urged me to mark her as mine.It's too early, I thought, not wanting to rush or seem hasty. But as this idea crossed my mind, her scent overwhelmed me, and she lifted her hips driving me further inside her. Every fiber of my being was tense, my wolf side demanding what we both knew would happen.My willpower crumbled. If I didn't act now, I would lose my mind. He
