Once a proud Luna of a thriving Pack, Amalthea's life went up in a flame of lies, when she was framed for a crime she didn't commit– Adultery. Betrayed by those she trusted, Amalthea is stripped of her title, her dignity, and forced into the hands of the Lycan King as nothing but a tool to secure his bloodline. The Lycan Kingdom has no place for weaklings, and being wolfless puts her at a disadvantage. In this new world, friends aren't really friends, and foes may not be foes. Can she rise above all this and prove that she can be more? Or will she get consumed by the forces at play here?
View MoreAmalthea's POVThe masked man didn't say a word, and walked past me without much of a glance as he walked out the door.What the hell just happened? One minute I thought he was going to touch me inappropriately or worse still kill me, and now, he was covering me up?What in the world is happening?“You got lucky,” the gruff man that brought me here muttered darkly. “If he didn't like you, you'd have begged for death–and it wouldn't come.”A shiver ran down my spine as his words sank in. I'm I really lucky as he said? Or would death have been a better option.I barely had time to process all that just happened when a knock came on the door, and Lara stepped in, her eyes buried to the ground as if afraid to meet my gaze.“These are for you,” Lara quietly handed me leggings, a plain top, boots and a jacket.I stared at the clothes for a few minutes, tempted to ask Lara questions, she looks like she'll have an idea of what I'm getting into, but with the way her eyes were on anywhere but o
Nicholson's POV“You bought me a what?!” I roared, my eyes locked on my Beta Callum who was standing across from me. How could he think– how could he dare?“A breeder,” he repeated calmly as if that was supposed to soothe me.“I think you're tired of living, Callum,” I glared at him.“Alpha, just hear me out,” Callum said quickly, holding up his hands. “I was just thinking about you.”“Thinking about me? How does getting me a breeder fit into that equation?!” I spat.Callum sighed, rubbing the back of his head. “I know this isn't what you want–”“You're damn right it's not what I want!” I snapped, pushing away from my desk, and pacing around the room.“You've got less than two years before the curse activates,” he said softly. “Less than two years to–”“I know!” I cut him off, not wanting to talk about the curse. I hated thinking about it, hated thinking about the dark shadow over my life.“I understand you are holding out for your fated mate–”“Yet here you are planning on bringing
Present DayAmalthea's POV"We're gathered here today to bear witness to the trial of Amalthea Crawford,” Elder Charles's voice rang through the general Pack hall, pulling me out of my thoughts. “Luna..," He paused and glared at me with open contempt. "...ex Luna of Blackfangs Pack, on the grounds of Adultery," he continued and looked over at the Pack members who were all seated in the general Pack hall. Slowly, murmurs began to ripple through the crowd.“Order in the court,” Allen commanded and the murmurs gradually died down."How do you plead, Amalthea ?" Elder Charles asked, in a cold and unforgiving voice."Not guilty," I replied in a steady voiceElder Charles scoffed. "Alright then. We'll start by hearing the witnesses' testimonies, and all supporting documents,” he announced. “After that, the Pack's council would decide your verdict,” he looked over at me, and I could tell all this was just for formality's sake and my fate had already been sealed. “May the first witness ple
Amalthea's POV Whoosh! A bucket of ice cold water was poured on my already freezing body, making my lungs seize as I gasped sharply, and jerked upright, coughing and trembling.“Get up!” The guard barked, as he stepped into my cell. “It's judgement day.”A bitter smile spread across my lips.“Psycho,” the guard muttered and dragged me to my feet, my bones screaming in protest.I bit back a groan, and he pushed me out of the cell.“Move!” He ordered, and I began walking like my limbs don’t really belong to me and each step is a negotiation rather than an order.I blinked a few times trying to adjust to the brightness of the sun, as we got outside. I hadn't felt the warmth of the sun in weeks, and I must say it felt heavenly.A car pulled up in front of us seconds later. I got in, and was driven straight to the general Pack hall.I stumbled as the guard kept shoving me forward through the hall. The Pack members whispered amongst themselves, and I could tell they have no idea what's go
