Aldric

I jolted awake with a sudden, shuddering gasp. My muscles twitched painfully as I tried to move my arms, my entire body trembling from the intensity of the previous night's transformation. My skin felt slick and clammy with sweat.

Ah, the Blue Moon transformation...the timing of it couldn't have been more perfect!

Those fools thought they could defeat the Alpha King because they had no idea what I could become under that special moonlight. Only Selene had seen me transform into a Lycan beast in the past, but she had kept me chained underground so no one else knew about my power.

The handful of people who witnessed it were dismissed for spreading rumors.

Morons.

I tried to sit up but felt something pressed against me. There was someone sleeping on top of me. Looking down, I saw that it was Destiny's figure, her hair cascading down her back like a waterfall of soft black silk.

The little traitor! What was she doing here, resting her head on my chest like I was her teddy bear?

    Aria"Th-that monster. What was that?" I collapsed on the ground.Nathan put his arms around me and scooped me up. "The Blue Moon. I didn't realize it would have that kind of effect on Alpha Aldric. I've never seen anything like this," he replied."He took Destiny. He will kill her," I sobbed. I did everything to protect my sister, but in the end, it didn't matter because now she was gone."Nathan's grip tightened as he carried me away from the chaotic scene. The air was thick with tension, and my mind raced with fear for Destiny's safety."We need to regroup and come up with a plan," Nathan said, determination in his voice. He gently set me down, and we found a secluded spot away from the wreckage caused by Alpha Aldric's unexpected power surge.I wiped away my tears, trying to regain composure. "What do we do now? How do we stop him?"Nathan paced back and forth, his brow furrowed in thought. "The Blue Moon's energy has a unique effect on him, but in the morning, it should wear off.

    Destiny"Where are we going?" I asked as Alpha Aldric kept going deeper into the woods."Somewhere safe," he said vaguely and kept moving.I sighed and followed him. But after walking for hours, I couldn't do it anymore, so I sat down under a tree."What are you doing?" Alpha Aldric turned to me and barked.I looked up at Alpha Aldric, frustration bubbling within me. "I can't keep going like this. We've been walking for hours, and you still won't tell me where we're going. I need to know what's happening."Alpha Aldric's piercing gaze bore into mine, and for a moment, I saw a flicker of hesitation. But then, his expression hardened, and he spoke with an air of authority, "There are things you don't understand, and for now, it's better that way. We are going to be pursued, and I can't risk anyone finding out about our destination.""But I am tired," I whine.Alpha Aldric let out a frustrated growl and then suddenly bent down toward me. I yelped as he scooped me up in his arms."What ar

    AriaI gasped and stumbled back as the woman in the tomb opened her eyes and started moving."Who are you?" I asked as she stepped out of the box. She looked at me and grinned as if she knew me already."Don't be scared," she said. Her voice was soft and sweet like melodic bells ringing. "I've been waiting for you."I took a step back, my eyes widening as I looked more closely at the woman before me. She was tall and breathtakingly beautiful, with pale skin and big, emerald-green eyes. But there was something off-putting about her demeanor -- a slight tilt to the shoulders, a slight wariness in her gaze. And yet, underneath it all, she seemed to emit a strange sort of allure."What do you mean you've been waiting for me?" I asked."My name is Selena," she said, in a voice that was almost sing-song. "What's yours?"I hesitated. There was something oddly familiar about her name. "Aria," I eventually said. "Wait...Selena...I heard that name before.""Did you? Well, I am not surprised. My

    AldricSomething didn't feel right when I woke up this morning. I felt as if something terrible was about to happen. I never ignored my instinct, and this time, it was no different."Get up!" I shook my sleeping Luna.Destiny groaned and turned to her side. "Ugh...let me sleep for five more minutes.""No, Destiny, we don't have time. Something's off," I urged, my tone urgent.She opened her eyes, the sleepiness fading as she registered the seriousness in my voice. "What's wrong?""I don't know, but we need to leave," I instructed.I could see the questions in her eyes, but she didn't argue with me."What are we running from?" Destiny finally asked after we walked out of the cabin."I wish I had a clear answer," I admitted, the uncertainty of the situation weighing on my shoulders. "All I know is that something feels wrong, and I won't put us in danger by staying here.""If it's my sister, Nathan, and Baron you are worried about, then you are the only one in danger. They just want to s

    Destiny"Aria! What are you doing with her?" I exclaimed as I eyed Selena.Selena stood tall in front of me. Her skin was still deathly pale, but this time, she was awake and looked way more menacing. "Aria. You can't trust her. She is dangerous," I warned."Selena agreed to help me find you. And it looks like she kept her promise because you are here," Aria said, her voice thick with emotion."Yes and I am safe and sound, as you can see," I said. "But Selena has nothing to do with that. Alpha Aldric has been keeping me safe."Aria rushed to me and pulled me into a hug. "I was so worried that he had hurt you."I wrapped my arms around Aria, comforted by her presence. "Aldric has done nothing but protect me. He is my mate, he would never hurt me," I reassured her.Aria released me and glared at him. "He is a monster!"I stepped back, feeling the tension rise in the room. "Aria, you don't understand. He is no monster," I insisted.Aria crossed her arms, her gaze unwavering. "I don't car

    DestinyI felt Aldric's grip on my arm loosen, and I stepped forward, ready to face Selena once more."Aww, you want to fight me, little girl? How cute," Selena mocked me."Yes, and I won't hold back," I promised her and attacked with a swift kick.My blow caught Selena in the mid-section, but she barely budged. Instead, she slammed her fist into my cheek, hitting hard enough to throw me sideways. I let out a yelp of surprise and quickly recovered, dancing back into a defensive stance. Selena's eyes narrowed in amusement at my surprise."You are stronger than I imagined, Destiny. But are you sure you can handle a real vampire?" She asked with delight, assuming I might back down now. But I didn't flinch, considering her words for a few seconds instead before leaping again at her. This time, leading with my left leg, I hoped to go for her legs instead of the torso.Selena did a side-step to avoid me and threw a crescent kick that hit my right leg just below the knee and sent me sprawlin

    AldricThe air around me shimmered with my anger as I watched Selena standing over my mate, Destiny. A smirk curling her blood-red lips as she leaned over her, her fangs poised to strike.My wolf howled in protest, wanting nothing more than to charge at Selena and tear her limb from limb for daring to harm my beloved.Destiny lay on the ground, her eyes barely open, a trail of blood dripping from the corner of her mouth as she struggled against the vampire's grip. Her breathing was shallow, and her body trembled with the effort it took to stay alive.I felt my heart clench at the sight of her, my love for her overwhelming me in a wave of pain and protectiveness. The scent of her fear and blood filled my nostrils, making me dizzy with the need to protect her."Get away from her!" I demanded, my voice low and dangerous.Selena smiled cruelly. "I've merely given your little pet what she deserves, Aldric," she hissed. "She disrupted the natural order by trying to fight me."My eyes narrow

    AldricI rushed inside and placed Destiny on the bed. "I need a healer here. NOW!"Delora rushed into the room. "Alpha Aldric! You are back!""Now is not the time to celebrate my arrival, Delora. Get the healer now. Destiny is hurt," I said urgently.Delora's eyes widened in concern, and she nodded swiftly. "Of course, Alpha Aldric. I'll fetch the healer immediately."As Delora hurried out of the room, my attention returned to Destiny, lying pale and battered on the bed. Guilt gnawed at me for not being able to protect her fully. I should've never let her fight Selena, but I couldn't undermine her powers by not letting her either.I reached out and brushed a strand of hair away from her face.The healer rushed into the room after a few moments. "What happened, Alpha?" she asked, her eyes assessing Destiny's condition."She fought a vampire," I explained briefly. "We need to do everything we can to save her."The healer nodded solemnly and began her examination. "She's lost a lot of bl

  • Enslaved by the Alpha King   Epilogue

    I sat on a bench, cradling a bundle of joy in my arms. My baby was finally born, and she was perfect. After that fateful night with Selena, my life changed drastically. Baron, the one who betrayed me and Aria to side with Selena, was finally brought to justice. Alpha Aldric showed no mercy as he banished him off to an island. The taste of revenge was bittersweet as I watched my former friend disappear into the horizon, knowing he could never hurt me or anyone else again. Aria kept her promise to Nathan and left with him. This time, I wasn't angry. If that's how she finds her happiness, then so be it. Alpha Aldric approached, a tender smile gracing his features as he looked at the precious life we had created together. The baby, swaddled in a soft blanket, blinked up at me with curious eyes. "Spending some quality time without me, I see," Aldric said and smirked. I smiled, my heart brimming with contentment. "Yup, with our little miracle, Clara." Alpha Aldric sat down beside me

    AldricThis ends now, I thought as I looked at Selena's grinning face."How about you release Aria and we fight? One last time," I suggested."One last time, eh?" Selena raised her eyebrows."Yes. Because I won't walk away until one of us is dead, think you can handle it, my beloved ex wife?" I asked coyly.Selena's eyes glowed red, and I could tell she considered my request. The challenge had ignited a spark in her, and for a moment, the mask of her composed demeanor cracked. "Aldric, you always did have a proneness for theatrics. Fine, let's end this once and for all."She released her grip on Aria, and she scrambled away, putting some distance between us.I took a deep breath, steeling myself for what lay ahead. Selena was not someone I could underestimate. She was a vampire and was stronger than me in some ways, as much as I hated to admit it.Selena advanced, her movements fluid and deliberate. Her eyes never left mine as she prepared for the confrontation.The first strike was s

    Aria Nathan's posture was tense. His back was arched, his fur bristling and his lips curled back to reveal sharp teeth, but he managed a low growl at her."First things first," Selena smirked. "You should probably shift back into human since I don't speak dogs," she said to Nathan and Baron. Baron just stood there while Nathan didn't hesitate before quickly shifting back into human form.He didn't say anything for a while as he stared at Selena with fury in his eyes. "You," he finally said slowly. "You started all of this. I am going to snap your fucking neck.""Down, boy. Let's talk about this first," Selena said."Talk? There is nothing to talk about," Nathan hissed and came closer to her. "You killed my mate, so I will kill you in return."Selena scoffed. "Oh, come off it. I told you it was an accident."Nathan's fists clenched, his knuckles turning white. His jaw tightened and he looked away for a split second before focusing back on Selena again. Nathan looked like he was goin

    Aria"Baron! Let me go. What are you doing?" I cried out as he dragged me away somewhere."I am not letting you leave with that guy, Aria," Baron barked."That's not your decision to make!" I snapped."But I love you," Baron said.I felt a shiver down my spine as I looked into his eyes. They were dark with desire and something else that's much darker than that. "Baron, I am sorry, but I don't feel the same way. I always looked at you more like a brother."A rage seemed to burn in his eyes as he looked at me. His grip on my arm tightened and a wave of terror coursed through my body. I tried to break away, but Baron pulled me closer, still dragging me forward.He was muttering something under his breath as we made our way down the narrow alleyway between two buildings, further away from the castle.I couldn't let him do this, I thought to myself. I jerked myself free and stepped back. "Don't make me fight you, Baron," I said. But Baron laughed darkly. "You can try," he said. "What will

    Aria"What do you mean you are leaving?"Destiny stared at me wide-eyed, and I was overwhelmed with guilt. I had promised to stick by her and protect her forever as her big sister, but here I was, abandoning her."I am sorry, Destiny. I decided to go with Nathan. Alpha Aldric banished him from this Pack. Nathan will be out there, building his own Pack from the ground up. I want to be there for him and help him," I told her.Tears welled up in Destiny's eyes as she processed my words. The weight of my decision hung heavy in the air, and I could see the hurt in her expression."But you promised," she whispered, her voice cracking. "You promised you'd always be there for me, that we'd face everything together."I reached out to touch her shoulder, torn between my loyalty to my little sister and the unexpected pull I felt towards Nathan and his quest for redemption."I know, Destiny. And I meant every word of that promise," I said, my voice filled with regret. "But sometimes life takes un

    NathanEverything changed so fast.It was like a bolt of lightning, striking me out of nowhere and leaving me in a state of shock and disbelief. Selena's confession about killing Emily was all I could think about, replaying her words over and over again in my mind.I couldn't believe it. All this time, I had been so sure that Alpha Aldric was the one responsible for Emily's death. I had been consumed by hatred and anger towards him, convinced that he had taken away my mate.But now, everything had changed. Selena's confession shattered my beliefs and left me feeling lost and confused. How could she have done something so heinous? Emily didn't even do anything to provoke her!As I tried to process this new information, I couldn't help but feel guilty for all the times I had blamed Alpha Aldric. And also scared.What would become of me now? The punishment for betrayal is usually severe, so did that mean Alpha Aldric would put me on trial now?My thoughts were interrupted as I saw Aria r
