Chapter # 1

Time skip

It's been five years since the Sapphire Goddess left Luster. They are now living on the outskirts of the lands of Tainted Graves. Even living on the outskirts, their name is well spread upon the land. 

The people of that land didn’t welcome them much but these women know how to force their way in. Tainted Graves is known as the most dangerous land, intriguing them enough to live in it. They are known as the ‘Foreign Pack’ rather than their actual name. 

To Lucille, this all is nothing but adventure… more like a reprieve. 

Just like everyday, she came home from a walk to explore the territory and saw her pack filled with blithe.

Entering with a smile, she asked, “What happened?” 

“You’re back Lucille! There’s an invitation for a party from Demise Pack.” Beamed the excited Beta. Raising an eyebrow, she took the invitation and let out a sigh.

“Shut it!” She shouted as everyone immediately left for their respective works. Letting out another sigh of disapproval, she went to her room,

“Are.. we going or not?” Asked Stella timidly. Narrowing her eyes at her she replied,

“Just me and Wendy will go.”

“Why? Wendy is just a child!”

“That’s the reason.” 

“But-” She argued but a glare from the Alpha shut her up. 

It’s night and Alpha Lucille got ready for the lush party. She wore an off-shoulder black mermaid gown with lacy sleeves.

 Letting her raven as well as blue hairs fall on her back swaying along the wind. Satisfied with the fact that she looked bewitching enough to grasp any heart in her possession. 

Walking out, Lucille saw the little girl with a purple frock come to her smiling.

She smiled back and patted her head. That girl always looks up to Alpha as her idol as a special bond ties them. 

“Released our prisoners. And let Nancy and Henna watch over them.” Once again Alpha’s words never cease to shake her members but as absurd they must sound, they all trust it and faithfully carry out their orders. 

Lucille and Wendy entered the great hall filled with lots of unknown yet popular faces including them.

“You know what to do.” Alpha said as the Pup smiled and left her alone with a nod. Lucille took a step forward as her heart stopped.

Electric sparks emerged from her as her bones began to tingle. Her blood began to hum in response to that feeling. 

Her body lost its strength as she felt her heart.. connected. As if her soul is not in her body but attached to someone else. Like her heartbeat synchronized with someone. 

She knows this undesirable feeling all well. 

A mate.

A few moments before this, A certain charmer who had no interest in the party, was outside to seek his second source of euphoria. 

“Have you heard about the attack Jared is planning?” Jasmine, the beta of the second most powerful pack, came. 

“They say he wanted to kill everyone inside.”

“I believe it’s a rumor.” He said coldly, walking to her, scanning her with a smirk as she licked her lips, putting her hand over his shoulder. 

“Why so?”

“There are a total of four Alphas here, he can’t take them on- even me alone.” Prideful about his firm presence.

“It’s hard to recognize a beast residing in this spellbinding form.” She laughed, pushing him against the wall, opening the buttons of his black shirt but he swiftly switched places and held her one hand back,

“Sweetheart, I don’t fancy being dominated.” He growled, pressing himself against her, making her shake in lust. 

Pulling down the zipper of her dress, that’s the way for him to reduce his tension a little- sex. 

He kissed her neck intensely while moving his other hand to her inner thighs and going upward slowly. 

Jasmine’s breath hitched as she pleaded with him to proceed further,

“Please… don’t stop.” She begged. He let out a suppressed laugh over her neck but before he could explore her wet cavern. Sudden enticement connected his heart with someone else’s beat, reminiscent of an uncertain symphony providing instant solace he sought all this time. 

“Leo…?” She called but he was lost.

His steps moved on their own, desperately wanting to see the person who is about to enter his life as his redemption after a century of constant torment.

A smirk appeared on his face when he let that feeling of gratification fill his very being. Inhaling deeply the intoxicating scent of his mate, letting it fill his nostrils.

He entered and walked around, eyes searching for one. The music was played as everyone began to dance. 

Finally after scanning the hall, his eyes met hers who were staring intensely at him with a frown arousing him more than ever. 

His tongue rolled over his upper lip interwinding his soul with her. Beholding Lucille’s grace which increased his impulses as she held her head high in pride not making a move.

That’s it. That’s the moment. She is right there, in front of me. Someone mine to possess. He thought.

They both stare at each other. His muscular yet most dominating form met her egoistic one, giving him a cold gaze despite the fluttering sensation. 

“Tsk, Nuisance.” She scoffed. Finding it utterly amusing, he walked towards her and offered her his hand. Giving him a beguiling look she took his hand as they began to dance. 

During the dance, Just a mere touch made sparks travel through their bodies. A feeling of fondness emerged from them, pulling them closer to each other but none of them said a single word as they continued to dance. 

He looked at her with his tempting golden gaze as she enticed him with her bi-colored eyes. 

He pressed his chest against her back firmly, tracing his fingers from her waist all the way down and pulling back after an abrupt harsh rub over her, making her moan unwillingly in bliss.

Leonel turned Lucille’s face to him again. 

She, who felt goosebumps on her skin as an immense feeling of pleasure, traveled to her very core. It gave her a heavenly feeling she denied from the bottom of her heart but couldn’t resist. 

Wanting to take revenge for that bliss. She moved her hand from his shoulder to his neck moving him close to her face as he growled at his animalistic urges. 

Craving to hear each other's voices, they still didn’t speak as they tried to seduce each other through their actions. 

Her ego came and didn’t let her speak for the sake of her pride.

Same with him, arrogant of his charming personality that can leave any girl fascinated about him, he remained silent for her to speak first.

After a painfully long time, the dance came to a halt. 

They both stared at each other and pulled away with a smirk although it was unfavoured on both sides but they didn’t show it.

“Alpha Lucille Dayle.” 

“Alpha Leonel Alvarado.”

They both said at the same time and turned. The content of the male is beyond any words. He thanked Moon Goddess deeply for giving him the mate he always desired- 

Oh, how he will love breaking her facades and make an Alpha bend before him.

Feeling as if his final wish had been fulfilled he went back to his respective place but his mate was out of sight but it isn’t bothering him now. 

“You’re mine. There’s no escape Lucille. I will make you mine no matter what it takes.” 

Lucille, who was anything but happy about it. Even feeling that physical pleasure, her heart is uneasy. Her mate turned out to be an Alpha like her. 

Now, he’ll force her to join his pack as his luna- what she’ll never allow. She will never leave her pack. She has her own name. She doesn’t want others. 

Gritting her teeth, she shrugged this matter off from her mind for a second, even if it was impossible. 

Not wanting anyone to rule her life in rhythm with his breaths, it would only knock undesirable trouble on her hollow chest.

Growling while espying at his sharp heart throbbing features, She snarled furiously,

“I will never become yours, Leonel. I will break this bond no matter what it takes.”
