Claimed by The Mafia and Alpha King Chapter 30 - His Remorse
DR. JOSEPH’S POVEverything inside me was tearing apart. My consciousness was still intact, and yet, my whole body got taken over by my wolf. There was no way for me to stop what he wanted to do to Andrea, no matter how much I desired her safety and security."Away..." I muttered in between my loud gasps while I was pulling my hair as strongly as I could.I didn’t expect that Andrea would suddenly turn her hand to hold my wrist the same way as I did. "What’s the matter? P-please don’t injure yourself like this. It’s hurting me as well to see you suffering…" she said. "Yes, I may have no idea about what you’ve been through lately, but I know for sure that it’s been difficult for you. You’re still only a human after all. You don’t have to shoulder all of your problems on your own; you always have me by your side, so can’t you at least depend on me too?" Her hand reached for my cheeks, which somehow made me flinch.My bones began to crack as I transitioned to a heinous-looking beast. I at
Claimed by The Mafia and Alpha King Chapter 31 - Unusual Treatment
LUNA ASTERBELLE'S POVMy stomach was rumbling as I hadn't eaten anything for almost a whole day. I couldn't even manage to find any source of water around this endless maze. And just as I thought that these would be the last minutes of my life, I sensed a faint aura from the other side of this hedge, which somehow gave me a little bit of hope.I tried to create a hole through it so that I could just see if there really was someone there, but it was too thick. I made up my mind to head over to the location where I kept on sensing the same aura, but I stopped the moment that I saw him."Jerome?""You… Why are you here?" Jerome asked as if he didn’t sense my presence just like I did.I played with some strands of my hair while looking elsewhere. "I-I got lost, I guess..?" I stuttered since I knew that it was far from the truth."So you’re basically telling me that you went here by yourself without knowing that this residence belongs to the Dawsons?" he questioned me with such a cold tone.
Claimed by The Mafia and Alpha King Chapter 32 - You're Special
LUNA ASTERBELLE'S POVEven with that said, I still couldn't come up with a proper plan regarding how I would be able to tame this man. I'm still left wondering if I should actually enact revenge on him or let him be and just move on with my past experiences."Seems like we still wouldn't get along all that well, unlike what I anticipated. Can I leave now?" I politely asked.Jerome raised a finger, making the person who served my dish leave the dining area. "We still have something left for us to discuss; don’t even think that you can escape from that maze outside. And if you’re thinking that there might be another pathway in and out of this mansion, then I’m sorry to disappoint you, but there isn’t."He really has a way or two to make me furious. No matter what I had in mind, he would immediately shut it off with his cruel principles."What is it that you wanted us to talk about? I’m pretty sure that we’re both holding ourselves back with the urge to strike now, considering how we got
Claimed by The Mafia and Alpha King Chapter 33 - Another Loss
LUNA ASTERBELLE'S POVA couple of minutes passed by, and I still couldn't process what Jerome recently said. It was hard for me to trust his statements lately, and there wasn't any reason for me to believe him anyway.I faked a cough at the same time that I walked out of the dining room, but I heard his footsteps that followed me out of the mansion. "Is there anything else that you want to say?" I asked in such an irritated tone. I wasn't amused with the way that he seemed to be playing with my emotions. "If you have so much time to spare, you might as well search for a method on how to remove this curse on me. If you wouldn't, then don't expect that I'd forgive you at all.""Althea must've told you the solution to your problem before," Jerome said, which piqued my curiosity, so I turned around to listen to him attentively. "Althea most probably mentioned me to you and also the existence of your curse that was made by none other than herself. She wouldn't be selfish enough not to tell
Claimed by The Mafia and Alpha King Chapter 34 - The Innocence
LUNA ASTERBELLE'S POVThe skies seemed to be sympathizing with how Andrea passed away. There were no signs of stars, and even the moon was blocked by the dark clouds that were endlessly releasing droplets of water. Every single step that I took as I went to the Blood Moon Pack’s premises was absolutely heavy. It was like my feet were locked up in chains and were pulling me backwards so that I wouldn’t be able to go to my destination.I parted ways with Jerome, and since I told him before not to attend Andrea’s burial, I’m pretty sure that our paths would not cross for a while."Luna, you’ve finally arrived; we’ve been waiting for you for about an hour now. We thought that you wouldn’t come," Mrs. Asterbelle said as she walked closer to me to assist me in stepping forth at the entrance of the venue. "Everyone else that was invited is already inside. You should go in as well and pay your respects to the friend that you’ve lost," she murmured.My mother’s words sounded to me like she didn
Claimed by The Mafia and Alpha King Chapter 35 - Private Conversation
LUNA ASTERBELLE'S POVFrankly speaking, I have no clue as to where I would be able to find Joseph right now. It's not like we have some sort of connection that can lead us to one another, unlike Andrea and him. I passed by the area of her burial, and there weren't any newcomers, which makes me the last one to pay her a visit. All of them were silent, and I observed how some of them were keeping watch of the time, as if they were merely forced to come here.I made up my mind that I wouldn't waste the entire day lazing around and would just go confront my father once again. I'm sure that Andrea wouldn't want me to keep on mourning for her anyway.As soon as I reached the alpha, Mr. Asterbelle's office, I was greeted with a dark, cool room lined with his bookshelves. Despite the high temperature outside, the only source of light came from the soft glow of dozens of candles that were set up all around the table in the center, creating silhouettes on the luxurious leather carpets that cover
Claimed by The Mafia and Alpha King Chapter 36 - Certain Conditions
LUNA ASTERBELLE'S POVWith no hesitations in mind, I concluded the conversation between me and Mr. Asterbelle, that he would just be wasting his precious time and efforts to stop me from taking what's rightfully mine—Jerome Dawson would be for my possession only.That moon goddess shouldn't have intervened with us if she planned to concise a scheme such as making me a half-half.Now that I've made an enemy out of my father, I don't think that I have any reason left to keep on avoiding Jerome. I have to come up with a plan that will make him recognize me as his mate. I don't want to end up in the same situation as Joshua, who's almost unable to communicate clearly because of the passing of his mate."What am I supposed to do?" I asked myself as I carelessly kicked the pieces of stone that were along the pathway.The Blood Moon Pack's turf was surrounded by gigantic walls made up of stone, paired with the iron gates that serve as both the entrance and the exit. It's not locked most of th
Claimed by The Mafia and Alpha King Chapter 37 - Where It All Began: Part I
JEROME DAWSON'S POVObserving from the outside, the orphanage appeared to have such stunning infrastructure, with an arched ceiling and gigantic white pillars that supported the balcony on the second story. There were also some stained glass panels that portrayed magnificent scenes. The air smelled like grass and soil since the windows weren't closed on both sides."Master Jerome, aren't you going inside?" asked Jin, the one responsible for guarding the entire orphanage. He's the only son of the owner, so I guess that he'd be the one to inherit this orphanage someday soon. "Everyone else is waiting for you in the dining area. Your lunch has been served by the maids," he added.I nodded my head, then kept my mouth shut as I entered the orphanage. The other children were really waiting for me to arrive, as they all turned to look at the entrance where I appeared. Sorry, I made you all wait for too long. Let's eat," I said.There wasn't anything special with today's meal either. I don't k

Claimed by The Mafia and Alpha King Chapter 97 - The Wedding
LUNA ASTERBELLE’S POVAbout six months passed. Nothing special happened during those six months. We all just kept on working our asses off to earn money like everyone else does.All of what recently occurred to me in this world that seemed so unreal finally made sense to me, even though I never imagined and hoped that there would come a time when I would get married to the first and last man I love and would love for eternity, Jerome Dawson.Denrick was the one who planned for all of this. From the set-up, the wedding organizers, the theme, the dress codes, the invitations—everything. He knew that I would arrive this year, as if he had a condition with the moon goddess from Grimstone that he would claim me back no matter what.On the other hand, Charlotte only stood in the same spot as she watched me get dolled up by the hair and make-up artists. Even if I couldn’t see her face-to-face right now, I could still hear her sobbing. Those were tears of joy.“We’ll make you the star of the
Claimed by The Mafia and Alpha King Chapter 96 - The Biological Parents
LUNA ASTERBELLE’S POVI chose to let him hug me instead of pushing him away. The warmth in his embrace made me feel a sense of nostalgia. He was the first one to step back, but both of his hands still had contact with my forearms.“Are you Mr. Asterbelle?” I asked, making it obvious that I don’t recognize him at all.He didn’t seem to like my first query, seeing how he pressed his lips together, which made his dimples visible. “Yes, I am. I’m Denrick Asterbelle, your father, and my wife is Charlotte Asterbelle. I would understand that you don’t remember a single thing about what kind of life you had here. Let’s go inside so we can have a proper and decent conversation while sitting,” he said, inviting us inside the office.The three of us sat together on a single couch. We instantly saw Yuki from the other corner, and when she noticed our presence, she hurriedly went to sit beside her brother, Nero. My lips curled a little bit to form a small smile when I saw how the Holmes were glad
Claimed by The Mafia and Alpha King Chapter 95 - The Search
LUNA ASTERBELLE'S POVI felt like there was someone who was desperately trying to wake me up from my deep slumber. A warm pair of hands touched my face, slowly cupping my cheeks, which were later pinched."I know you're awake. Stop pretending like you're asleep just to feel my touch, Luna," said a man with such a deep tone.I struggled to open my eyes because of the bright sunlight that was directed at me. And when I finally had a clear view of the dazzling man in front of me, my lips slightly parted."I should run away, right? You're going to harass me and kill me later on, right? You're a bad person despite having such a mesmerizing appearance, right?" I consecutively questioned him with both of my eyebrows raised.His facial expressions displayed how confused he was with my reaction, as if all of my speculations about him were far off from what he really intended to do.The man firmly held my shoulders as the two of us stood straight. "Don't mess with me, Luna. Are you being seriou
Claimed by The Mafia and Alpha King Chapter 94 - The Portal
LUNA ASTERBELLE'S POVAfter we scattered all throughout the cave that looked like a pack house, we gathered back at the entrance to share our insights. We all shared something in common, which was the sight of human flesh placed in every corner.And just when I thought things wouldn't get any worse, Yve told us how she saw a possible hidden path from the deepest part of the cave."I swear, there was a lever on the bookshelf. I didn't want to advance there by myself; I was afraid that I might not be able to return once I went there," Yve explained.No one among us doubted her, so we agreed to follow her wherever she saw it.The walls were compressing more and more with each step we took, so we had to line up and walk in a straight line to avoid the risk of getting crushed.There were chandeliers in the room we went to. It's probably an archives area, judging by how many rows of bookshelves were built."There it is! The lever," Yve said, pointing at the first row of shelves.I tapped he
Claimed by The Mafia and Alpha King Chapter 93 - The Mortals
LUNA ASTERBELLE'S POVThe airway in my lungs got stuck when I felt the firmness of Jin's grip on my neck as he aggressively strangled me, like he had the intention to take my life away right at this moment.I held onto his wrists in an attempt to pull them away, which was unsuccessful. Jin was beyond the scope of my current strength, which I was letting out."Come on, Luna. Show me what you've got. I know you're just holding yourself back. If you insist on pretending like a weakling, you'd die out of cowardice," Jin whispered to my ear with his deep voice that wasn't pleasing.I swung my left leg towards his crotch, but it was useless. Jin didn't even move an inch, as if he were already numb to any kind of pain.If this escalated further, I'd really die. With that said, the only choice I have left is to listen to what he has to say."Parents? I never had one. I was brought to this world as an orphan. I have no such thing," I said as I desperately tried to breathe.Jin released me from
Claimed by The Mafia and Alpha King Chapter 92 - The Guardian
LUNA ASTERBELLE'S POVThe man who served as the guard of the orphanage where I originally belonged and was also the heir of it was the same man who now serves as the guardian of this cave that was filled with a mysterious aura."So this was how you managed to feed us with that human flesh," Jerome said.I heard how his teeth were clasping against one another, so I held onto his hand to calm him down. I mind-linked with him to stop him from taking any indecisive actions."You should be appreciative that I still provided food and shelter for all of you. Imagine if I didn't; you wouldn't be standing there right now. You're probably buried deep within the ground without anyone remembering you," Jin replied as a provocation to Jerome, knowing that he had a short temper.I shook my head when Jerome glanced my way, knowing that he was starting to lose his screw.I stepped in front of Jerome, and before I got to Jin's area of reach, he removed the mask that covered about half of his face. His
Claimed by The Mafia and Alpha King Chapter 91 - The Discovery
LUNA ASTERBELLE'S POVThe surreal feeling of being respected by everyone around me was still like a dream to me. I was so used to getting looked down on, so this entire turnout of events really benefits me. I no longer had to keep an eye on all the little things that would bring my reputation down."Luna, can you come up to the Alpha's office?" Yve asked the exact moment she entered the dining hall. "He called from the reception area and was looking for you. I don't know why he didn't choose to just mind-link with you," she explained with a sigh.I smiled at her as I went upstairs with a heavy heart. My gut was telling me that Jerome called me up there for some bad news.Knocking on his gray office door, I opened the door and crossed its threshold. "Jerome, what's the matter? It's unusual for you to call me up here," I mumbled as I slowly walked in front of his desk to stand right beside him as he watched the people from his window."One of our warriors has gone missing," Jerome initi
Claimed by The Mafia and Alpha King Chapter 90 - The Ceremony
LUNA ASTERBELLE'S POVAs if on cue, the rain poured on us as if it were Althea who was getting dramatic over the loss of a prominent werewolf. If Brian were one of her children, she would surely be cursing all of the people who teamed up just for a single purpose: to annihilate Brian.A deafening silence surrounded the three of us in the woods when no one dared to speak after Jerome got rid of his bloodlust over Brian.Mrs. Asterbelle arrived at the scene and told us to gather around the mansion. "I don't know what to say. I still can't believe that he's really dead," she anxiously muttered while holding onto my forearm. "Thank you, Luna. All of this wouldn't have been possible if you weren't here."Left without the reason for her existence, a query popped into my head. "Aren't you feeling a sense of melancholy now that your mate is gone?"My mother shook her head, distancing herself from me. "It's fine. I'm actually happier than ever. Brian ridiculed me since the first day he chose m
Claimed by The Mafia and Alpha King Chapter 89 - The Slaughter
LUNA ASTERBELLE'S POVBrian brought me out of the pack house, somewhere within the woods, where I tend to get lost when I am still a kid. He probably assumed that there would be no one guarding this place since we already went to the mansion with my vigorous allies.The only one left here outside who was capable was Zen, along with their pack warriors, though I can't detect their specific hideout."I should have buried you alive. No, I never should have considered listening to that stupid man to adopt you." Brian began to reminisce about the past that he could no longer change without mentioning who he was referring to. "Too bad for you, though; you'll die without stepping foot in that wonderful world where you could've made a bounty of fresh humans."A world filled with humans? Those only exist in fairytales; there's no such thing as mortals. Not even the moon goddess knows about them. Grimstone was the only place that actually existed.If humans were real, then do they also know abo
