"Don’t act like you never knew my true intentions for your daughter." It was then that Charles didn’t hold back either. I met another shock when I heard him confess that my mother, too, knew about his dirty actions.I still gave her the benefit of the doubt, thinking maybe she just feared he looked at her daughter differently."I ---- yet you did this to me. I let you touch her. I even let you enter her room after she turned 18. It is not my fault that she struggled and fought you off. You promised if I let you have fun with her, you will marry me." The way my mother was talking about her daughter as if she were some sort of toy that she gave to Charles, made me throw up in my mouth."That was when she turned 18. I believe the very next night. You should have drugged her, but you couldn’t control her. Besides, I realized I wanted her to be my mate. However, I am not denying leaving you. We can carry on behind the scenes---," that discussion was churning. I wanted to get in there and b
"Hey!" I heard Reynard yelling when he spotted me sitting on the edge of the bridge and crying in my hands. I got up the instant I saw him approaching me. He had parked his car a little farther away so that he could look for me.I rushed towards him and landed in his arms. He was wearing a long black overcoat that he took off and wrapped around my body while hugging me tightly.I didn’t raise my face from his chest, and neither did I utter a word to him. I was in a lot of pain, crying, and traumatized."Hey! hey!" As he stroked his hand up and down my back, I sank deeper into his strong and comforting arms. His scent and mild heartbeat were able to soothe my soul."I am here now. Nothing and nobody will harm you," he whispered, tightening his arms around my body.After I stayed in his arms for a few more minutes and calmed down, he walked me to his car. I was in the passenger seat as he drove the car. I was defeatedly just looking at the road while resting my head back and letting sil
"Tell me everything," Lady Greta had sat me down, and after feeding me food and juices, she decided to have a detailed discussion with me.We were in their sunroom. She said I need to go outside the closed walls or I will fall into a depression. Little did she know I was already depressed."My uncle spoke to the council and gave them a report on my character and actions. They decided it is a good idea that I get married to someone who can control me and prevent me from making mistakes or whatever nonsense they think I will do if they don’t clip my wings," I said without displaying any emotions. I was still hurting and just lost who to cry for anymore."That is foolishness. They cannot marry you off to someone unless they get your permission," Reynard said, straightening his back in the seat. I raised my face just to watch him and then immediately looked down because it hurt.I foolishly fell in love with him.Now what? He is in love with Arlene. He has no idea I am not the one he is i
"I am so---rry!" He stepped back in hesitation and rubbed his hands over his face, looking all guilty. I couldn’t even process the whole situation for a moment. "I will grab my stuff." I rushed ahead to the lockers after excusing myself from him and he didn’t stop me either.He said Serena!Was he in love with Serena before or now?If so, then why did he want to be with Arlene?I was lost, feeling clueless, and betrayed. I grabbed whatever I could from the lockers and marched past him in a hurry. He followed me to the car, and soon we hit the road back to his mansion. I had a lot going on in my head, and since he too didn’t utter a word, I couldn’t figure out the truth about them."Oh! You two came back already." I heard Greta call for us from the sunroom. She must have been waiting for us, so we rushed to the room to hear the next part of her plan.Things were a bit awkward between Reynard and me this time. We've also been stealing each other's gaze."So, what to do next?" Reynard as
We had to sit them down in the living room to have a word with them. Mr. Valdman looked very angry and frustrated with me. I knew he was not too fond of me, and now that he had caught me with the alpha king when they were planning my wedding, that had upset him even more."You need to listen to the girl when she says she doesn’t want to get married to that old man," Greta raised her voice as she was done hearing Valdman talk about how inappropriate it was for me to come stay here when my soon-to-be husband was looking everywhere for me.Daxon had been clenching his jaw and probably finding ways he was going to murder me when they took me home."It is about the rules. She is going to marry Charles because he seems to be the only one who can control her." Lady Vivian cleared her throat before she spoke very elegantly. I didn’t like their stiff postures and self-righteous tones."She is not a dog that needs controlling. You treat her well and she will respond nicely," Greta shook her hea
Once at home, that’s when the actual battle started. Uncle Charles hadn’t stopped pacing around while they sat me down in the living room to have a word with me. I could tell they were going to do their best to make me reject Reynard."I can’t believe this. How could he feel a mate bond with her when she doesn’t even have a wolf?" My mother complained, watching Charles pace around in agitation. They didn’t let Serena join the so-called family meeting.I didn’t want her to find out about Reynard through them. I had prepared an entire speech to convince her to let Reynard know the truth after I tell her how her plan of exchanging our lives helped me find a better mate.Daxon was sitting on the couch, puffing hot air out of his nostrils, and constantly grunting. It was so hard sitting here and watching my mom. Her sight disgusted me, and I bet even she noticed it."So she is going to be the Luna Queen now?" my mom commented while tears formed in her eyes. I have never heard of a mother b
I was in shock after being put into my body again without my knowledge. Things didn’t add up anymore. If my sister had planned to return me to my body, she would have told me anything and not made plans to meet me on the rooftop. That’s when I finally jumped out of bed and realized how light and featherlike my body was. There were no scars and bruises on my body, unlike my poor sister’s.I had to simply stand on my feet and think through a little before I walked out of the room to see what the whole commotion even was about.I found the omegas to scatter away as if the show had ended. I couldn’t help but wonder what happened when I watched my mom and uncle go missing while Daxon and my aunt stood outside Arlene’s bedroom.Everybody looked sad as if somebody had died. That’s when my heart skipped a beat."No! That can’t be." I shook my head in fright and bolted in the direction of my sister’s room.Aunt Marrisa and Daxon walked into the room after me to let me be aware of the whole sit
After the doctor told us that Arlene tried ending her life, we were left speechless. Things didn’t add up because I could tell 100% that she didn’t take the poison. I would have known since I was in her body.We had taken her home on a ventilator, but everybody has already lost hope. Or should I say, their plan was working fine? They wanted to get rid of us. At least they took care of one.I watched them all around me, one by one, some genuinely sad, some angry, and some just pretending to be sad. Daxon’s anger was at the news because he had so much planned with her. Uncle Charles was sad because he wanted her for himself, and my mother was just pretending because she didn’t care at all. Aunt Marrisa seemed neutral and genuinely sad, but only to a limit.One of them has to be the one who gave her poison. I just needed to first get out of this pain of watching my sister suffer and then figure out a way to find her culprit and mend everything that has been broken."I don’t believe she d
Last Chapter:"I, Alpha King Reynard, accept Serena Majestic as my mate and wife," Reynard smiled, holding my hands."I, Serena Majestic, accept you as my mate," I giggled, barely able to look him in the eyes because I was blushing so hard."I, Alpha Kai, accept Arlene as my mate," Kai said, looking happier than he had ever been."I, Arlene Majestic, accept you as my mate," Arlene said, and she instantly started making out with him. Everybody giggled, and soon we were asked to mark each other. Reynard pulled me closer and gently tucked my hair to the side, burying his face in my neck. I felt his tongue moisten the area before he dug his teeth into my skin. He pulled back, and I aimed for his neck. But every time I reached for him, he would pull away, and everybody would start laughing."You don’t want me to mark you in bed, do you?" I teased, "I will be rough," I mimicked a tougher tone, and he smiled.I finally buried my face in his neck and sucked his skin before piercing my teeth t
"Say it again," she demanded, facing me."I love him, Arlene. He is my mate," I repeated myself, hoping she would not disappoint me. Reynard stepped away from her and then smiled."Then go for it," Arlene stepped back and smiled as well, making me wonder what was going on."What is going on?" I asked in a whisper.Reynard was watching my face with such a huge smile and satisfaction, while Arlene didn’t look upset either."I don’t get it," I wiped my tears clean, as I could tell they planned this."You stupid Serena! You thought I would steal your mate from you after you gave me my whole life back?" She let out a laugh while tearing up."What?" I gasped."He is not my mate, you idiot," she started laughing when rushing over and hugging me."But you said---" I was still at a loss for words.She was hugging me and jumping up and down. Reynard gently touched his ears and mouthed an apology."I still don’t know what is going on. I need someone to explain this madness to me," I shook my hea
"Congratulations,"A councilor shook hands with Arlene as he headed to the food court. She looked like a true princess in that blue gown, wearing the alpha crown on her head. It’s been a week since that trial of Daxon, and we have all come to the conclusion that Arlene will be a better fit as the alpha of this pack.She was truly shocked in the beginning and hesitant too, but I told her I had faith in her. I knew if anyone could take care of this pack, it had to be her. She had faced a lot; she will not shy away from helping out her pack."I am so hungry," Arlene complained as she rubbed her hand over her stomach and kept looking at everyone eating their food.The coronation had reached the point where everyone was just eating dinner now. Arlene had to stand and watch everyone, but I think everyone had already met her, so she could relax now."Let’s go take a seat with them," I said, and she excitedly clapped her hands. The red gown I was wearing was what Reynard had selected for me.
The gunshot deafened us and silenced the others. Everybody stopped on their feet and stared at the mess my mother had created one last time.The guards knocked her down and handcuffed her behind her back while she screamed and cried. Vivian was still in shock because she knew the bullet would have hit her, but Arlene pushed her aside and saved her life.It was all happening so fast that I lost myself for a moment."Oh, my God!" Vivian gasped as she hugged herself. Valdman rushed down to check up on her before he glared at my mother."I should have aborted you two," my mom was screaming and crying, "You two are the reason my life is ruined," her yelling was so bad that many young mothers had covered their ears. "Take that bitch away and give her hell," he shouted angrily. Reynard had rushed to our side to see if I was doing fine while Kai had sneaked up beside Arlene."She saved my life," Vivian said, freeing herself from everyone’s grasp, who were checking on her to address what Arle
"Eh!" The first thing I heard was Daxon groan and move in the bed when his alarm rang like crazy.He was probably still very drowsy but was in the process of waking up.I was lying beside him under the blanket with no clothes on. After meeting up with Reynard and Arlene, we discussed the plan, and Reynard was a little upset that I didn’t include him before taking such a huge step.I understand he was worried that if Daxon had refused to drink, I’d have landed in trouble. But after calming him down and putting Arlene to bed because she was exhausted, we made out and then made the whole plane for the next day.Just before his alarm rang, I had slipped in bed with Daxon to make it look like we slept together after doing it."Ahhh!" Daxon groaned again and shifted his side to face me. I instantly shut my eyes tight and made it seem like I was still asleep. I noticed a little freeze in his body movement before I heard him grunt out a complaint."What the fuck!" he groaned, "I slept with he
"Fine, I accept your apology," he said as he finally stopped laughing and put his phone in his pocket."Why did you do all that?" I asked while sitting on my knees."Did what?" he asked, dragging a chair to place it before me and sitting down, acting like the fucking Alpha King that he will never be."Why did you force my sister?" I asked him, watching him smirk at the memory of it. Such a disgusting man."Because it was fun," he shrugged."I honestly don’t remember any other reason. Yeah! It is true that I wanted her to be my mate because she could make a better bitch, but then I got over her. Aren’t you happy that I am over her for you? I like you more. You should be thankful for me and not make these ugly faces," he said, shaking his foot while talking nonchalantly."Where does this stop?" I asked with teary eyes."Get over this whole Arlene and make her life a better thing. Sleep with me, and it will be over," he shrugged, as if that was all that was needed to be done."That’s it?
"Oh!" I blushed hard this time, thinking how weird it is that even I saw it, then how did Arlene not see it? That’s when another horror struck me. If it was that obvious, then Daxon must have noticed it too. Is that why he was hurrying up for the wedding?"Where did you get lost?" Kai asked."I am here. Actually, it is not about their wedding," I said while checking the door to make sure Daxon was not around."Oh, thank goodness—I mean, okay, then what is it?" Kai must have bitten his tongue, because I heard him let out a little yelp before talking again."She got her wolf," I said, with a bright smile covering my lips."What? really? Oh my goodness! That’s such good news," he started getting excited, making me realize how perfect he was for Arlene."But we are not telling anyone yet," I made sure he understood me, or else we will get into a huge mess."Oh okay! I get it," he nodded to himself as he promised not to tell anyone. We talked about the whole incident in school once again i
"I can’t believe I am finally having my wolf," Arlene had been pretty excited all this time. But we knew we had to take her to the woods for her first transformation. I just couldn’t define in words how happy this news made me. For her to finally get here wolf and also be this close to getting justice from almost everyone was just amazing. Reynard had been driving like crazy to reach the woods while Arlene was constantly babbling in the backseat of the car with her hands constantly rubbing her elbows as the pain kept intensifying."Argh!" she let out a little complaint, and then I heard a crack."Umm! Reynard!" I called for him while rubbing her back, "I heard a crack," I said in a terrified tone. The issue was that her wolf was waking for the first time after being tormented a lot. We had a feeling that if she transitioned with people around her, she would go crazy and probably hurt someone.So we must take her to the woods and let her transform alone in peace."We are almost there,"
Max looked irritated at my arrival because he wanted Arlene to be left alone. He must have gotten the instructions from Daxon and knew already that I would defend Arlene."Walk away, Serena!" Max voiced, making sure they didn’t break the circle and keep Arlene trapped."And why would I do that?" I asked, taking steps to reach them. The others shared a glance and smirked, probably wanting to bully me as well."And why not? This isn’t the sister you would want to protect. Did you forget how she used to make your life a living hell?" Max tried his best to pin me against her, but I have lived her life, so I am aware of everything.I noticed Arlene standing up and rushing to the corner, looking angry and probably frustrated with herself for not having a wolf."She is not the one at fault," I said, "My sister is innocent. Whoever told you all these stories is the real culprit," I was not shying away from defending her anymore."Oh, come on, don’t believe anything she tells you," he rolled h
