Alpha Kane had got to us so soon, and Gilbert, who my sister had trusted wasn't helping matters, he was here with Alpha Kane. I clutched more tightly to Fiona's hand. I wheeled my chair backward a bit like I could run away but I couldn't. 

Alpha Kane and Gilbert weren't the only one here, there were other guards too, the skilled one who had been assigned to me. Even if there weren't any, I won't be able to win against Gilbert in this condition. 

He moved closer to me as I could feel my heart leaping continuously out of fear but I didn't let go of Fiona. 

I swallowed hard, awaiting what was going to happen. I had only put myself in danger and put Fiona in more danger. My thoughts went to the poor prisoners I had released too. 

They were also in danger. If Alpha Kane found them, then he'd kill them. 

I could see in his eyes as it screams anger, he was angry and is just about to show me. He gritted his teeth like an angry wolf would, making me more scared. 

He was just inches away from me and I dreaded when he was going to finally stand close to me. I felt a sharp pain. Hera was hurting, with him being around here, she was hurting! It was just days after the rejection. 

He finally came close and I lifted my gaze matching his, his face wasn't calm but was showing fire. Those blue orbs were sending fire at me. 

His hands struck me across the cheeks as I felt the burning heat, he actually hit me! His rings leaving marks on my face. My lips bleed as a result as I blinked my eyes multiple times trying to calm myself down.  My face twitched to the side against my wish and I swallowed hard. 

The cheeks hurt but what hurts more was that I wouldn't be able to get out of here with Fiona and that is if even me can leave. 

“You are a betrayal, you know that? Going back on your words??” He said and I only scoffed silently. 

“You can't be trusted, you disabled rejected mate!” He yelled wanting to slap me again but sighed instead. 

I smirked. Mate?? Guess he still sees me as his mate, though rejected. 

“I can't be trusted?” I retorted, staring deeply into his eyes. Hell be to those people who said I couldn't look into his eyes. 

“You break promises first, Alpha Kane, I would have kept to my end of the bargain if you had kept to yours in the first place, you should have kept Fiona out of this!” I yelled. 

“And so because I didn't, you dare go against me, killing royal guards right in the palace and letting the prisoners I captured break free??” He asked and I felt my stomach churning. 

He knew about everything already. But how? How so soon??

Almost immediately,  the people who had escaped with my help were brought to their knees in front of him. I know those weren't all but still they were one of them. 

Fear ate me up as I couldn't hide it. Those people had been brought back to him in just minutes. Alpha Kane had a smug smile on then I knew what had happened. 

It dawned on me the trick Alpha Kane had played on me just now. 

He knew about me going to the prison from the start but he didn't stop me. I killed one of his men but he didn't stop me until I killed four. I penetrated through the prison without much stress but he didn't stop me even when I released all the prisoners. 

He set me up! Once again! I had been set up by Alpha Kane. 

I should have wondered why there were only Eleven guards guarding the general prison which was large and wide like a nation itself. It was because he wanted to grant me access. To have more leverage over me which he had succeeded in. 

One word to the whole pack about what I had done and they would have me beheaded along with Fiona and all these people kneeling. 

I had not only implicated Fiona but many lives here. 

Alpha Kane chuckled seeing me trying to process the whole thing. That cunning human was very calculative. He always knows the right moment to talk, he knew I was done in calculating whatever it is I was calculating. 

“Guess you now understand everything, I'm Alpha Kane Garrett, you can't play smart with me” he said with a smug smile which irked me. 

“You will regret this, I assure you” I yelled through gritted teeth. 

“How? You won't do as I tell you in Alpha Zane's kingdom??” He asked with a cold face then snapped his finger almost immediately. That only means one thing, he was commanding one of the guards to do something.  

I moved my face to where I saw someone moving. Just then, a guard drew his blade, slashing one of the people kneeling from behind. 

“Noooo!!!!” I found myself yelling as I tried to get off the chair, I was in rage, and in fear.  

He had just killed one of the old ladies. The others shuddered in fear wondering who'd come next. 

“Everything depends on you now” his voice came, as I turned to look at him with teary eyes. 

“Act like a smart girl once again and those people would breathe no more” he said. 

He wasn't mentioning Fiona anymore but he was mentioning those poor people. Using them as leverages against me. 

“You..” I wanted to talk but stopped, amidst sobs, I wanted to tell him again, he would surely regret this moment but I dread seeing another innocent soul gone all because of me. 

“Remember your mission while in Alpha Zane's kingdom or I send their heads to you every week” he said and I felt as if life was being squeezed out of me. 

“Try anything funny and you will be back to the pack to meet your sister, not alive but breathless and in cold blood” He finalized and that struck my heart increasing the pain for me and Halyn as I growled. 

He was threatening me, threatening me!!!

    I can't let anything happen to Fiona. I must do everything not to let what Alpha Kane is saying come to pass. Thinking about it sent shivers down my spine. Coming back to this pack to see Fiona in cold blood like he had said. I wouldn't allow that. “Take them away” Alpha Kane commanded, his voice husky and commanding. I stared as all the poor citizens were dragged away by guards with their face filled with terror. They were afraid as much as I am at the moment. As much as Fiona would be at the moment. How could a King do this to his own people, how? I wondered. It wasn't right. An Alpha is supposed to take care of his people, he's supposed to show love, and unite his pack members together but here Alpha Kane is doing none of it. The smug smile which looked like an award he had acquired didn't leave his face as he kept his gaze on me, back to Fiona then back to his people who were being dragged away. Hell am I saying! Not his people, I'm sure those people weren't seeing h

    I looked around the garden, every pack member from the moonlight pack owned and headed by Alpha Zane were present. The guards that Kane had sent to escort me were already gone. of course, they threatened and promised to harm Fiona if I didn't do their Alpha's selfish bidding. I palmed my forehead in tiredness and in disgust. How couldn't they see how selfish, cruel and unfair their Alpha was. I guess people see the good in the bad and the bad in the good. I looked towards the garden and a man was given a speech, something about their next list of events that would take place. I tried to listen, but It was just too boring, something about "Traditional Wolf Activities" Under the traditional wolf activities, he went on to list " Howling Concerts, Moonlit Hunts, Lunar Rituals." When he was done mentioning it, they all screamed out in excitement. Then he continued "Magical and Mystical: Shape-Shifting Ceremonies, Moonlit Vision Quests , Lunar Energy Harvesting: *Celebr

    Right! Who would want to take in someone they don't know, even if it was just for the night? It was risky, although I looked pitiful enough for anyone to take me in. The woman wasn't at fault, nobody was. I was used to being rejected, so this one wasn't new. I left her house, not dejected but determined to find another place to pass the night. Or maybe I was dejected but just didn't want to show it?? I smiled at myself, telling Hera that everything would be okay, although she didn't ask me. She should be my companion who talks to me in hard times like this, but Hera barely talks. She doesn't see the need to converse with me when she's in pain or when we are in danger. I wheeled my chair through the festival places as I didn't see the need to stop staring at anything. They were all having fun. With me, it wasn't fun.It was supposed to be for every werewolf, but right now, it isn't. They were shifting in merriment, but not a twitch of the lips could be seen in me. I wa

    The feeling I was having at the moment was not explainable, I felt like my heart could jump out of my chest. His voice struck me as I wondered if he recognized me. He must have! If not, why would he beckon at me like he remembered killing me but was just realizing that I was alive? If it wasn't my scent, then how did he recognize me? I thought and swallowed hard then his voice came again. Staring at him, my eyes bore into him, with anger blooming from it. I didn't want to show it, I must not; else he'd find out about me and if he does That would be the end of me and the end of Fiona because Alpha Kane won't let her be. The thought of getting killed twice by the same person sent fears clouding my mind. Although the first one, he hadn't succeeded but had my legs crippled. “Why are you in here?” He asked, his voice cold yet tender. All I could see in him wasn't the Alpha Zane I knew, I could see a different man whose face wasn't the one of a wicked man I've always kn

    “Aren't you going to deny it?” His voice came again, he was expecting me to deny it claiming I am one of his pack members but I knew better than to say that and do as he says. “You are right, Alpha Zane,” I said, without stuttering. He smirked annoyingly, getting pissed off by my appearance. He must have expected me to keep the lie up so then it could be clear to him without anything hidden that I was in the pack for something, something which to him could only mean destruction. “I do not belong to the pack” I added, confessing to the truth that I don't know whether it would take my life right away or would make something worse happen to me. Whichever it is Alpha Zane decides to do with me, I'm sure I won't get defeated easily. Else Gina would be disappointed in me, She had always had high hopes for me. And then I would be failing Fiona also, letting her down and there were the other newly founded people I needed to save. I can't let all of them down by messing things up

    I really wanted to tell him; that I am Leona Kazan!, The rejected mate of Alpha Kane. And it was all thanks to him. But I said none of that even when the urge to say it was so strong, I remained quiet. Not because I was scared of him. What do I have to be scared of? I'm already lame, and disabled, and I have nothing to lose, life for me ended years ago; when I lost my legs and my sister Gina. Alpha Zane kept staring at me, or should I say glaring. Someone who was said to have people cowering at his feet whenever he looked at them. Was this the look they were talking about, it's not as scary as they pointed it to be. But I still needed to play the pitiful card. I sighed, how I hated pretending. We kept on staring at each other, neither of us looking away. "Should I get the Royal guard here?" He asked again, this time in a more calm but dangerous tone. "Would you hurt a disabled girl?" I held my chest, feigning hurt. "You would proceed to hurt a lame, harmless young gi

    I had breakfast at the motel with the little I had on me, I had come here unprepared as everything happened like a disaster. I had no time to prepare for using funds like this so I had only brought my little savings with me. The cruel man who had sent me here wasn't providing me any help or any resources but all he was doing was having men spy on me which I knew they were doing right now as I remembered Adrian's words. “We will be watching your every move” After eating the breakfast I had managed to afford, despite having very little money with me, I reminded myself that I was saving the rest for finding a house. Shelter always comes first.I left the motel feeling grateful to the woman who had taken me in. Although I paid for the room, I was still thankful for the shelter it provided, even if just for a day.I went house hunting, searching for places, but I was either told there were no available houses or that they couldn’t accommodate me.

    I didn't drag it further or ask her any more questions seeing she didn't look like she was going to tell me even if I asked her again and again. “You Need a place to stay?” She asked as she noticed I was quiet. “Hmm,” I muttered nodding my head. “I can cover you up on that, how about it? I will provide accommodation for you until whenever it is you are leaving and if you want to be in the moonlight pack forever, you are always welcome to stick with me to the end” she said.And once again, I felt safe in the hands of a stranger. The way she had said those words made it comforting, just like how Fiona and Gina had always cared about me. I felt like I could trust her. I smiled at her not wanting to thank her yet. It might be a prank, who knows? I barely know her and the foolish me is trusting her already. “What do you say?” She asked with a smile. “It's cool, thanks” I muttered as she wheeled me towards the direction of her house.

    I sat on the veranda of the palace, my thoughts racing back to Alpha Zane’s dismissal. The memory replayed vividly ,his cold gaze, his sharp tone and I couldn’t shake the sting of humiliation. What had gone wrong? Why had he reacted that way?My mind wandered to the questions he’d asked me earlier. Simple, straightforward questions about my past, my purpose. Questions I should have been prepared to answer. Yet, in that moment, my tongue had betrayed me, leaving me flustered.“Dammit, I messed up,” I muttered, clenching my fists tightly. My frustration burned in my chest. How could I hope to approach Alpha Zane again, knowing his anger still lingered?I exhaled heavily, forcing myself to think. Time was slipping through my fingers, and every mistake pushed me further away from my goal. I needed a new plan—something to redeem myself and earn another chance to speak with him.With determination, I stood from the bench and headed inside the palace. My steps were quick, purposeful.

    Alpha Zane povAnger surged through me, and I didn’t even know why. Maybe it was because she was lying to me. It shouldn’t make me this furious, but it did. She was playing games, trying to provoke the worst in me.I imagined letting my wolf take over at that moment—how it would have hurt her so badly. She wasn’t even good at lying, yet she kept trying her best to stick to it.There was no way she wasn’t a spy. She had to be. But how certain was I? Not certain enough. Still, she was clearly doing everything she could to hide whatever it was she was keeping from me—her thoughts, her agenda, her secrets.I sighed deeply, trying to calm myself, resorting to breathing exercises because of her.Breathe in.Breathe out.I tried to keep my anger in check, knowing it was better to send her away. If I didn’t, I might have done something I’d regret.The walk I had planned to take was now ruined, slipping from my grasp because of her.

    I appeared behind Natalie as she made to walk back with Madam Stella still staring at her back. She saw me and froze. She didn't expect me to be there. Nobody did. I had been at her back since minutes earlier. “Madam Stella don't have to deliver the message to me, you did just now” I said making her realize that I heard everything and she shouldn't have hidden behind Madam Stella. She smiled then walk up to me. Her smile poisonously infectious. She stood very close to me leaning over to my ear. “You think I can't say those to your face?” She asked but I only scoffed silently. “Don't think the Alpha has got your back and do whatever work is assigned to you dillgently” she said but I said nothing. Something in me told me she isn't ready to stop and would still continue. “Alpha Zane also can't stop me, reason why he chooses me over everyone in this pack, I'm his favourite in all of the pack, you should know” She said, telling a tale I never cared about.

    Natalie’s POVI froze at the sight of them together. I knew they weren’t kissing, but it certainly looked like it. Alpha Zane wouldn’t kiss anyone so randomly—especially not a maid like her.But the way he leaned in, staring at her so intently, made my blood boil. I clenched my fists, furious. That bitch was clearly trying to get his attention, and now it seemed like Alpha Zane was giving it to her.And then she lost her balance—only for him to catch her. By the waist. My eyes widened in pure rage at the sight of his hands on her, holding her like that. But I forced myself to suppress my anger, unwilling to show any signs of discomfort while Alpha Zane was still here.I shot a glare at the girl, whose waist was still wrapped in his strong, masculine hands. To my satisfaction, my glare seemed to work—she quickly scampered out of his grasp, and he let her go without hesitation.He began walking away from her but stopped suddenly.“Tread carefully,” he said, his voice laced with mockery.

    I stared at him as he came closer taking gentle strides towards me. It made my heart skip. I was in the garden because I was sure I would see him here but once I was here, I couldn't remember why I had chosen to come here with the hope of finding him. “You know too well where I could be Leona, and you are new in the palace you say?” His voice came, gentle yet the sharp and harsh edge was noticeable. I knew he was suspicious of me and that was exactly why he was waiting for me to come find him here. To confirm whether I was worthy of being kept around or not. Of course, I wasn't worthy of being around him, because I would bring him pain sooner or later as my only aim is to ruin him which I would surely do. These thoughts ran through my head as he stared at me amused. I then realized why his gaze was fixed on me, it was because of the glare I had sting into him. A glare that shows the aura of someone who wants revenge, of someone tired of hiding behind a damn mai

    I woke up slowly, stretching my tired limbs. My eyes drifted to the wall clock—it was already 9 a.m. The room, which I shared with the other maids, was empty. They’d clearly all started their duties for the day.Reaching for my crutches beside the bed, I steadied myself and made my way to the window. From there, I gazed out at the park, my thoughts drifting to the mission that had brought me here. Two weeks had passed since I began working at the palace, yet I hadn’t made any progress. The thought weighed heavily on me.“How am I supposed to accomplish anything when I haven’t even seen Alpha Zane?” I muttered under my breath.Being here wasn’t easy, especially with my disability. The others dismissed me, their disdain thinly veiled, but I’d learned not to let it bother me. I pushed through each day, trying to find a way to cross paths with Alpha Zane. So far, every attempt had failed.Letting out a weary sigh, I got undressed and made my way to the bathroom. After a quick bath, I dres

    Alpha Kane povI glanced at my phone again, staring at the picture of Leona in Alpha Zane’s pack. It had been sent by one of my spies, who I’d planted to monitor her movements and activities.The message that accompanied the image detailed how she had successfully entered Zane’s palace as a maid.“Perfect,” I muttered, a sly smile curling my lips as I leaned back and took another sip of my wine. Everything was falling into place, just as I had planned.Leona had worked tirelessly to secure her place in Zane’s palace, defying all odds despite her limitations. Admirable? Perhaps. But I couldn’t care less.“Impressive,” I mused, clapping my hands lightly in mock applause.Her presence in the palace meant it would be far easier for her to retrieve the vital information I needed. Still, I wasn’t foolish enough to leave things to chance. I would continue sending spies to ensure her loyalty and track her progress until her mission was complete.I glanced at the picture again, scrutinizin

    I packed for my new life in the palace, excitement buzzing through me. Haelyn helped, folding my clothes with care, her movements steady.“I can’t believe it,” I said, my grin widening. “I’m one of the five chosen. I feel like the happiest person alive.”Haelyn looked up, smiling. “I told you, didn’t I? You were bound to make it.”I pulled her into a tight hug. “Thank you for believing in me. You’re the best.”“That’s what friends are for,” she said, laughing lightly.“Not every friend would do this. You’re one of a kind,” I teased.“Stop making me blush,” she replied, nudging me playfully.Her smile faded slightly. “Leona, there’s something I need to tell you about working in the palace.”I tilted my head. “What’s wrong?”“It’s the rules. They’re strict. And… the work won’t be easy for someone like you,” she said hesitantly.I understood what she meant. My disability wasn’t a secret, and I’d faced doubt before. “I won’t let it hold me back,” I said firmly. “I’ll manage. Trust me.”

    I bit my fingers nervously as my mind was racing with thoughts of what if, What if I wasn’t chosen? What would become of me? How else would I get close to Alpha Zane?I sighed—again. My nerves were getting the best of me. I had to get in, no matter what.“Are you okay?” Clara’s hushed voice came from beside me, pulling me out of my thoughts.I shot her a strange look. Why would she think I wasn’t okay? She quickly ducked her head, and I raised mine, only to find that everyone was staring at me, including Alpha Zane.Wait—why was he holding a paper that looked like a result sheet?What the hell was going on?I quickly looked back at Clara. “Why are they staring at me?” I asked, my voice barely above a whisper.She muttered, “You kind of gave a loud sigh that attracted everyone.”I shut my eyes, mortified. I had no idea my sigh was that loud.“Is everything okay, Leona?” The deep, smooth voice of Alpha Zane reached me, and the way he said my name sent a tingling sensation down my spine.
