Emma's POVI was shocked when Alpha Kingsley asked me to marry him. My stance staggered, and I looked at him bewildered. I looked into his eyes, hoping he was joking, but he wasn't. He looked serious, and my heart dropped."I can't marry you, Alpha Kingsley," I said, and he furrowed his brows."Why? Why can't you marry me?" He asked, and I licked my trembling lips."You promised to stay away from me, Alpha Kingsley, so what changed?" I asked and stood up from the floor; even though my legs were trembling, I tried to maintain my stance."I only promised to stay away from you so that you can have time to yourself and heal; I didn't mean I would stay away from you completely," Alpha Kingsley said, and I cackled. I blink several times, trying to control the threatening tears from rolling down my cheeks. I hold my gown tightly, seeping my fingers into my palm covered with my dress."That doesn't mean you should ask such a ridiculous question! Just because I need your help, you can't just a
Lana’s POVMy heart kept beating wildly against my ribcage while I spaced around my room. I have lied and said it was all Emma’s fault, hoping he would stop searching for her and hate her, but no! He wants to wage war on her people and probably bring her back to the pack.Tears welled up in my eyes as the thought of how alpha Lucas was under Emma’s spell baffled me. My plans always ended up backfiring, and now he wants to go to her pack again. What if Emma is truly there, and that means I have lost once again to her?I couldn’t keep calm with my agitating feelings; I need to talk to someone, and I don’t know who is the perfect person to convey everything I am going through. I sighed heavily when I suddenly heard a knock on my door.I furrowed my brows, raising my skirt a bit before walking to the door. I attempted to open the door, but the door opened before I could place my hands on it, which got me riled up with my already agitated state.I was about to lashed out at the person who
Alpha Lucas’s POV"What is going on here?! What is this commotion!"I heard King Edward say as we successfully made it to the pack manor, I raised my hand up to stop my men from fighting any further, but they were standing in attention, waiting for any wrong move, and they will definitely strike again."King Edward," I called, and he moved closer to me. His eyes darted across my men, and I saw fear lingering in the depths of his eyes. Our eyes suddenly locked, and he cleared his throat, looking away immediately."What is going on here, Alpha Lucas? Why will you just attack my people?" he asked, and I cackled at the stupid question he was asking me.Packs from different borders must have heard about me waging war against the dark crescent pack, and now the alpha of the pack wasn’t expecting my men to troupe into his manor and destroying whatever we came across."Don’t ask me any stupid questions after you send your men to attack me in the wild!" I roared, and his brows furrowed in confu
Alpha Lucas’s POVMy eyes darted across everyone, I was shocked to see Emma with alpha Kingsley.“Emma” I called again and her brows creased, tears threatening to fall from her eyes “What are you doing alpha, Lucas? Why are you attacking my people?!”Emma yelled at me and I was baffled, she have never raised her voice at me like that, I saw how Alpha Kingsley held her protectively and that angered me “Come with me, Emma! Come with me and I promise you this war will end right now” I said with pleading eyes, she shook her head fervently moving away from me, her eyes were blurred with tears and she sniffed “No I can’t” she cried out and I saw King Edward step forward “It’s all your fault, Emma! This pack has been in peace for several months after I offered you as a truce but you choose to leave his pack and now he has attacked us again!”King Edward screamed “He banished me from his kingdom, he never believed me and I had no choice but to leave his pack,” Emma said and I felt bad, I c
Emma’s POVI burst into laughter when Alpha Lucas suggested I go back to him. It always baffles me how he commands at every given opportunity and it felt like he wasn’t serious. Was he joking?He doesn’t look remorseful for everything he has done, I saw alpha Kingsley stand up from the floor and spit out blood, he stands beside king Edward and his eyes landed on me, I know he was waiting for me to reply and I am not the type to go back on my promises.“No! That won’t happen” I replied and I saw Alpha Kingsley smirk, it seems he suddenly had a new profound energy and his stance got balanced than the way it was before“What do you mean no?”Alpha Lucas asked his eyes slightly widened with shock, he definitely didn’t expect me to say no to him. I saw him fist his hand into a ball and he hardly cared about his injuries, blood was pouring out of his knees and I have to take my eyes away from them if not I would run over to meet him and take care of him. “I won’t cancel the engagement alph
Alpha Lucas’s POV The pain of coming back to the pack without Emma is indescribable, I have tried my best to lure her back but she blatantly refused and wants to go with alpha Kingsley. The thought of alpha Kingsley did nothing but angered me, I had no choice but to let him be for now without taking any drastic measures.I don’t want to do anything that will make Emma go further away from me, the sun shines its light on my room and I angrily dragged my curtain down, that is not my cause of concern right now. I suddenly heard a knock on my door which angered me, everything act gets me annoyed. The knocking continues and I angrily went over to open the door. “Who is it?”I roared, my furrowed brows suddenly calmed down when I saw my mother standing before me, she gave me a scrutinizing gaze and sigh “Alpha Lucas?” she called but I ignored her and went back to my room, I sat down and she came closer to me. Her mouth was sealed probably calculating the words she wants to say to me. “W
Emma’s POVMy heart feels so heavy and I could barely eat, I pretend to feed when I am with alpha Kingsley so that he won’t get to know what is going wrong with me, I sat down by the window side of my room looking at nature and I tried to find peace within myself which I haven’t been able to find.As each day passes and it gets closer to the wedding ceremony, my heart gets heavier and I wondered if people around me can’t feel it, they are so happy and busy preparing for the grand wedding while the bride to be us withering in pain because I wasn’t with the person I want to be with. I suddenly held a knock on my door jolting me from my reverie, I sluggishly stood up from the stool I was sitting on inside my room, I held my skirt up while I went for the door, I held the doorknob and pushed the door open, I saw one of the servants standing before me.“Good evening lady Emma, Alpha Kingsley seeks your presence in his chambers,” she said and I furrowed my brows immediately, I have always a
Lana’s POV I guess I might be collapsing soon with the state my heart is in. I could not place name on the way I feel with what alpha Lucas said, he wasn’t going to push through the wedding anymore and that meant everything I ever worked so hard for was all going to be in vain I can’t allow that to happen, not after everything I have sacrificed to get to this point, tears clouded my eyes at the thought of why Alpha Lucas can’t accept me the way I am, I sniffed and stepped out of my room, I can’t sit down and let everything I worked for crumble before me.I suddenly heard a knock on my door and I wiped my tears away with the back of my hand, I sniffed and went over to get the door, I met Naomi standing and I quickly arch my back“I’m sorry for interrupting you lady Lana, the council members are all gathered waiting for you,” Naomi said and I nodded I had called for Naomi earlier and asked her to help me gather the council members, I had a skeptical feeling that they won’t honor my i
