CRYSTINA’S POV

The next time I opened my eyes, the first thing I noticed was the white ceiling and wall. It took a while for my brain to register where I was. The bed right beside me and the little tag on the door gave it away that I was at the Pack’s hospital. I was so weak that I could barely feel my body. It was as if I’d been made into a punching bag. I tried sitting up but the pressure on my right side made me stop. When I looked down, I was staring at Luka who was in turn, staring outside through the window not realizing that I was staring at him.

He was holding my hand tightly, radiating an unexplainable warmth to every part of my body. My eyes went wide as I took in the scene. Unexpectedly, I withdraw my hand from his and that got his attention, I quickly sat up and looked away from him.

“You’re awake? How do you feel?” He placed his large palm on my forehead and that made me look at his face involuntarily. His eyebrows were drawn together and a deep frown was plastered on

    CRYSTINA’S POV My wolf growled at his choice of words. Not only was I mad but Kris was crazily angry as well. She rarely gets angry but anytime she does, it usually goes out of hand. That’s why I keep her out of my head during school hours. “Over my dead body, Luka. You do not own me and you cannot tell me what to do with myself. If I want to leave, I’ll leave and you’ll do nothing about it,” His hold on my chin tightened. “Look around you, Crystina. Who do you think you belong to other than me? I brought you into this pack and only I can determine where you go next,” He spat. It was obvious that the conversation was not only between us but both our wolves were involved. “NO!” I yelled. “I want to leave, Luka. I’m done with this place,” This was the first time I would be baring my hearts out to anyone other than myself. I was so done with the pack and the burdens that come with it. Every time I look at someone here, I’m reminded of what happened to my father and Luka’s father. I

    CRYSTINA’S POV Paige nudged me by my shoulder and winked. I squeezed my eyes, taking in her suspicious acts. Anytime Paige tries to act cute like that, be wary because she’s about to ask an unthinkable question or favor. “What?” I raised an eyebrow. She smiled sheepishly and that was when I confirmed she really wanted to ask me about something that she might not get the answer and my guts is telling me it would be about… “What’s going on between you and Alpha Luka?” She asked. I groaned her words confirming my suspicion. “Nothing,” I shrugged.“Really, you’re going to lie to your best friend. I know something is going on between the two of you but you don’t have to lie about it. This is a safe space,” She touched her lips. She meant not even any other person would hear about it. I trust Paige to that extent, I knew she wouldn’t tell anyone until she gets really angry. Once she’s angry, she can say anything to anyone. I shrugged again. “It’s nothing you should worry about. I’ll t

    LUKA’S POV “Somebody call a fucking ambulance,” I yelled again, not caring about whatever response I received the other time. Crystina was bleeding so badly and she was whimpering in pain. Anytime I hear her whimper, my heart races, and I was moved to my knees. Fear gripped me by my core, not letting me go as I watched my mate bleeding to death in my arm. I knew there was no way I could take her to the hospital all by myself without losing her. I needed help and for the first time, I was clueless. “Luk.. It hurts!” She cried as she held on to my hand. I removed my palm from the injured spot and I saw her blood mixed with silver. SHIT! I gritted my teeth as I glared at the body parts of the man I’d just ripped apart. He had stabbed her with silver. Wolves were allergic to silver, it was poisonous to our blood and some wolves were never trained to withstand it. Some wolves like the warriors, the Alpha, and Beta go through excruciating training by the time we’re ten to learn how to wi

    CRYSTINA’S POV After I woke up at the hospital, Alpha Luka was there again. Even though I actually didn’t expect him to be there but I wasn’t surprised as well that he was. “Do you feel better?” He asked once he laid his eyes on mine. If I say yes, I wondered if he would find out that I was lying between my teeth. “Not really,” I whispered. My voice was very low because I was feeling weak. I was in excruciating pain from the stab wound on my shoulder. It was silver and there was no way I would recover within a few hours. “It hurts?” With a pained expression on his face, he touched me lightly as if he would break me. I nodded. “A little,” He held my face in his hands and kissed my cheek lightly. His eyebrow was so crooked that the line in between was not visible. Luka held my hand and stared at me. “It would get better. It’s the effect of the silver. The doctor doesn’t want to pump you with too many painkillers, she wants your body to ease out the pain. You’ll get better, alrigh

    CRYSTINA’S POV On Saturday morning, I asked Paige to accompany me to the shopping mall to get a new dress. I didn’t have a dime on me and the only thing I relied on was the credit card that Luka gave to me. True to his words, Luka went on a trip on Friday morning and that gave me the chance to attend the party and see Nico again. “Ooh, you look really good, Babe,” Paige gushed once we met outside of the shopping mall around 5 in the evening. I’d lied to Miss Mary that I was sleeping over at Paige’s place and she only allowed me because I also lied that I got Luka’s approval. “What? I don’t look different,” She grabbed my hand. “You look really different, like in a good way. You’re glowing and that dress is nice,” She pointed at my outfit. To be sincere, I don’t know where the new dresses came from, all I know is that I found them in my closet after I left the hospital. I didn’t find any of my old dresses so I didn’t have a choice but to wear the new outfits. “Thank you,” I blush

    LUKA’S POV I was in a meeting when I received a message. At the beep of my phone, I wanted to ignore it because I thought it was something I could attend to later but when I realized it was an image, my curiosity got the best of me and I opened it to reveal the worst nightmare. My fingers trembled as I quickly picked up the phone to prevent the person sitting next to me from seeing it. The more I looked at the picture, the more I lost my sanity. My vision was becoming blurry with anger and I found myself going crazy as I was so close to losing control. I stood up immediately and rushed out of the meeting. The meeting was with another pack’s Alpha who was proposing joining alliances with my pack. His idea was bizarre to me and I regretted traveling all the way to his pack just to hear him rant about how useless he would be in a few days if we join alliances “Alpha Luka, what’s wrong?” My Delta who had accompanied me to the meeting asked as he trailed behind me. I shook my head, los

    CRYSTINA’S POV When Luka said the mating ceremony was in three days, I had thought he was joking and would probably change his mind but for the next days that followed, I realized how real it was. Right on the morning of the third day, reality dawned on me. As I stood in front of the mirror in my white and nude long gown that was flowing down my feet and braided hair, I was sure that I was about to become the Luna of the Moon Valley Pack. “Are you ready?” Mary asked me as she walked into my room with a wide grin on her face. She was even happier than I was. I was the bride, I was supposed to be the happiest but deep inside of me, I couldn’t find that happiness that I truly wanted. So many questions are running through my head and I can’t help but wonder if this is what I actually want. I don’t hate the idea but neither am I a fan of it. I breathed loudly. “Yes,” I replied. “Good. You look so beautiful in that dress, dear,” Forcing a smile, I replied. “Thank you for picking such

    CRYSTINA’S POV Even though I knew what would happen if I returned to the house with Luka, I still did. I would prefer anything other than staying in that hall with 97 percent of people that I didn’t know anything about. As we walked out of the hall hand in hand, I could feel some hard glares being directed at me but I didn’t look back because I couldn’t bother with bitter people. I have more things to worry about than that. “My room or yours?” He asked as soon as we walked in. Miss Mary and Rolf were already back in the apartment by the time we returned. I was nervous and scared but at the same time, I didn’t want my fear to be known. “Yours,” I replied. He held my hand again and we walked into his room together. I sat on his bed as I stared at my fidgeting hands. I clamped them together, trying to calm myself down. It’s not a big deal, all mates do this thing. They mate and mark each other, it's normal. I looked up when Luka scoffed. He was standing at the far edge of the room,

Gabriel and I together with Azel arrived at the palace two seconds ago and I'm so unfortunate the person who came to meet us at the door was no one else but mother fucking Carter. "Hello to you, Carter," I said with a fake big smile. "I know that smile is fake, Paige. You can't fool me," "Maybe you should stop stressing the girl out so much," Azel advised. We hadn't even walked into the palace yet because of Gabriel. Gabriel was speaking to a woman on the far end side of ours. "Aww, don't get too jealous, Paige. He marked you already, he can't jump to another woman just like that," "You're a pandemic," I told him. He wasn't just an arch nemesis to Gabriel, he was a problem to everyone around him except Azel. I've been thinking of so many ways to get rid of him and I just couldn't come up with something that'll kill

I shook my head as if she could see me.After several days of mopping and locking myself in my room, I found the courage to call my parents and I asked them to tell me the truth and not leave any stone unturned. Even though they were both adamant at first, my mother cracked first. She told me she had begged my father not to do it but he didn't listen. My father didn't talk to me even after I was done talking to my mom and I didn't care. They lied to me all my life, they made me hate a different person, they almost made me leave Gabriel and made an innocent person apologize for the sins his father didn't commit. I asked them not to contact me anymore. I told my mother she should be rest assured that I'll be fine because it's obvious I'll be safer with the Lucien's brothers than with my own family. "You don't have to. Moreover, we'll be leaving for the palace in a day," I replied Crystina

    Paige's POV "Lucien didn't do it," Carter said. He picked up a grape from the fruit bowl, ate one, and offered me the next one. I shook my head. "Who did?" He shrugged. "I wasn't really particularly interested in the story because it would've been more interesting if they'd said my father did it," I clenched my teeth. His answer wasn't what I wanted and his words were beginning to piss me off. "Carter, who did?" "Why do I think you're angry? I can smell your anger," "Because I need a fucking answer," I yelled."It was you, right? You're the girl in the story," "That's none of your business, I just need an answer," "No wonder that bastard hasn't marked you yet. He's probably stalling from marking a wolfless bitch," I clamped my lips together, forcing myself to swallow whatever it is I wanted to say. "Listen, Carter. You can keep the tale, I don't want to know," I turned, ready to leave again. "What happened to you was tragic," It was his game and the little time I'd spent

    Paige's POV"Someone looks ready for training," Gabriel teased as I walked down the stairs. I was in my training gear already excited for the training. How could someone be so excited about getting exhausted and sweaty? That someone is me by the way. I know it's going to be hard but I'm ready in every way. I've been training for a month already and I get stronger each time. "I guess," I shrugged. I walked past him to pick up a bottle of water from the fridge. When I turned back to look at him, I caught him staring at my ass. Since the last time, we haven't made an attempt to make out not to talk about having sex. It's not like the spark died because I could still feel the sexual tension between us but I believe something else changed in Gabriel. I can't know what's going through his head but it's a lot sometimes and he acts on it. He thinks I'll break if he touched me. If I want him, I have to pull him in myself. "Quit staring at my ass, commander," He gave a small smile and looked

    Paige's POVI tried to wrap my head around what Gabriel meant by his words and I couldn't bring myself to find an answer to that. I was shocked by his words and I couldn't understand it. I've been playing with Azel because he was too busy to have my time and I didn't want to be a bitch by demanding his attention every time. "What are you talking about, Gabriel?" He clicked his tongue. "You don't want me around you. Don't try to deny it, Piage," I had to interrupt him at that point. "That's not true, Gabriel. You've been busy and I didn't want to be an additional problem by complaining," "You've been giving your attention to Azel. You don't even look at me when I come home either in the day or at night," "That's because you don't stay for more than five minutes when you come home during the day and at night, you come home late. I try to stay awake and wait for you but you just never come," He stared at me, ran his hand into his hair, and slumped into his chair. "I stay for five

    Paige's POV"Get off my path, you demon," I yelled at Azel as I tabbed the game console with more anger. He was growling, yelling back at me. "Move your ass, you're not a snail for fuck sake, Princess," I snarled at him and he winked. I still don't understand how I get so worked up about these games and Azel can still compose his shit to look like gold. Two weeks have passed since Gabriel and I declared how important we were to each other. He's been busy at the Pack, rarely having time for me. Still, I always wake up to breakfast that he made while the chef he hired fixes dinner for me. Most times, when I wake up in the morning, he's gone and I don't even have the privilege to see him before bed. I miss him so much but I didn't want to complain and act like a clingy mate so I shut my trap and let him do whatever he wanted. Sometimes, I would sneak into the training ground in the early hours of the morning to watch him train with the others and when I'm satisfied with his looks, I'

    Paige's POV"Do you really want to know the answer to that?" I asked him. He stared at me, his eyebrows furrowed. I knew he was surprised by my question but I believed at the same time that he needed to be mentally prepared for the truth. "I think so. If you want to tell me, then I want to know," I nodded. I sat up, leaning away from his body and into the sofa so we could sit opposite each other. We stared at ourselves for a while before I looked away. "Originally, I'm from Lucien's pack," I said, holding my breath."You're a Northerner," he said, in disbelief. I nodded."Yes, I'm a Northerner. According to my parents, they said my dad was a Beta to your dad at some point before we had to leave. I don't know how true that is anyway," He appeared to be thinking about something. "I know every Beta that my dad had because I had to work with them at some point. What's your family name?" "We go by Drews now but previously, we were called Rowards" Gabriel shook his head. "That doesn

    Paige's POVAfter having our breakfast by evening, we settled into the living room and put on the TV. "Do you think we should play some video games instead?" Gabriel asked. I shook my head.I was waiting for him to sit beside me so I could cuddle with him. His body felt warm and I wanted more of his warmth. I so longed for him beside me that I wanted to cry. Whatever was happening to me is something that I don't understand but now, I don't think I can take a step away from this man."I don't know how to play any video games," His eyes widened in surprise. Laughter kissed my lips but I held it in. I was actually surprised to see him surprised. "Well, that makes two of us," He dropped the game console, and the laughter I'd been holding dropped out of my mouth. He sat beside me and watched as I laughed, a smile dancing on his lips."Why did you ask me to play a game with you when you didn't know how to play yourself?" He shrugged. "I don't know, I just thought you would know how to a

    Paige's POVWhen we finally came out of the room, it was past midday. Well, the shower took longer than expected and we spent two hours cooped up in the four walls of my bathroom while he banged the fucking life out of me. My toes still curl at the thoughts of him filling me up. A smile lingers on my lips and my heart softens like a cellophane paper. I can still feel his taste on my tongue and his touches on my body.I needed more, it was as if I became addicted to Gabriel all of a sudden. I don't think I can get enough of those kisses and his touches and the way my body shook with tremors every time he filled me up to the brim. I couldn't control my screams. At some point, I had to cover my mouth with my palm but Gabriel removed my hand and told me it was okay. I could scream all I wanted, he loved it that way. Quickly, he replaced my hands with his lips. Right there in the bathtub, he took me thrice while I molded my body against his, my tiny legs wrapped around his body and his h
