Amalthea’s POV

“What do you think?” She asked, popping the cork off right after she threw the super vague question at me.

I had no idea what exactly she was referring to. The stubborn cricket that won't stop catcalling, the cool night breeze, or the simmering lake dusted with pale moonlight lit across the surface. “I like the peace.” I summed up my environment. Peaceful was definitely the word for every kind of feeling I was having at the moment. There was a look of satisfaction in her eyes as she threw some of the content into her mouth, handing the bottle to me.

“I think I have had enough for the night.” I declined her offer, making sure to put on a polite smile so she didn't think of me as rude. She popped her right eyebrow at me, the same look she gave me earlier when I had told her I wasn't staring at the wine bottle earlier. And just like she did before, she shrugged and continued going at it. I kept glancing sideways at her from time to time because I thought she was lowkey

  • Luna To Breeder   Chapter 30

    Amalthea’s POV “What?!” I exclaimed into the night, my eyes wide with shock from what she had just said. “I am referring to all the alpha's who have lived in the house before my brother became an alpha.” She pushed me a little by the shoulder, chuckling. “What did you think I was talking about?” She asked me, giving me a sideways glance. “Oh nothing, I didn't just get what you meant initially.” I explained to her adjusting on the log. She sighed. “Have you guys done it?” She inquired with a sneaky voice. I didn't need a soothsayer to tell me what she meant by that. She wanted to know if I had had sex with the Alpha. I honestly didn't know if that was ever going to happen anytime soon but I was invested in everything about it. I wanted it to happen. It was just obvious I wasn't Nicholson's type of cup of tea. I didn't say this to her of course. I held off from the entire feeling and drowned myself in my hands. Then I sighed heavily, looking up at the sky through the branches of the

  • Luna To Breeder   Chapter 1

    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

    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

    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

    Amalthea'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

    Amalthea's POV I was still trying to decide what to do when I felt a cold hand grab me from behind. “Gotcha!” My body stiffened. I slowly turned my head and my eyes landed on one of the werebears. He has a sinister smile that sent a chill down my spine. “Hello beautiful,” he purred, tightening his grip around my arm as he pulled me closer. “Get away from me!” I screamed in terror, years burning my vision as I tried freeing myself from his grip. “Please,” I choked out, still struggling to set myself free. “”Please just let me go.” “Sure thing beautiful,” he let got of me, his eyes watching me like a hawk as he trailed his fingers reached out to caress my cheeks, making my skin crawl “Don't touch me!” My voice came out harsher than I intended as I jerked my head back. “Feisty, huh?” He gave me a sinister smile, and was about to touch my cheeks again when I sank my teeth between his thumb and his index finger, biting down hard till the metallic taste of blood filled my mouth.

    Amalthea's POV The air in the room suddenly felt suffocating, and I didn't need a soothsayer to tell me that the Lycan King just stepped in.Slowly I turned around, and saw a tall figure with an imposing presence at the door. I couldn't make out his face completely, but I could tell he was watching me intently.Bam! He banged the door behind him, making me flinch and I instinctively tightened my hand around the alarm clock.“D–don’t come any closer,” I stuttered as he took a step forward. I raised the alarm clock, positioning it like a weapon. Even though it was laughable that I'm holding up an alarm clock as a defense against the Lycan king, I still needed to defend myself.“What do you think you're doing?” He asked, in a voice that sounded all too familiar.I decided not to ponder on the familiarity of the voice and just focused on fighting him off in whatever way I can.My heart skipped a beat as he took a step forward…then another, and another…and with each step my hand tightened

    Amalthea’s POVKing Nicholson? Have I heard correctly? My brain is paralyzed by the shock as I keep tracing red lines on the dashboard in my mind. The voice, the build, the same pair of gray eyes. They all matched the same person. It was always the damn mask from the start that misled me. My eyes widened as it finally clicked. If this was the Lycan king, then the person I brought me here was the Lycan king himself!Oh goddess! That was why he mocked me last night when I attempted to throw a damn clock at his head! Why did he have to put on a mask? Worse still, why did he pretend to be Beta Callum? What was his motive behind doing that? Different thoughts raced through my mind all at once.Other trainees around me at this point had long fallen silent and were bowing their heads in the direction of the Lycan king while I was already grazing the floor of the training ground. His cold stare was unwavering as he peered down at me, whipping at his nostril before spitting somewhere close

  • Luna To Breeder   Chapter 28

    Amalthea’s POV “Come with me. And leave the plates on the floor.”Certainly, she was crazy. What the hell did she mean by dropping the plates on the floor? Was she aware that they were breakables and I wasn't exactly in the place to replace them. “What if they break?? Someone could kick them—” “Oh please, plates break, life goes on. We both don't know where the damn kitchen is and I am tipsy and feeling lakey, so why don't we abandon this and find the lake instead, what do you say??” She seemed super excited for the lake adventure for someone I expected to give snide remarks about not knowing where the kitchen was as the alpha's breeder. Turns out she actually also didn't know where it was and from her pattern of speech, the chances that she was actually tipsy were high. Still, I had my doubts. The serene evening deserved exploring, but at what cost? With a stranger I have only met today. I realized from her expectant look that she was still waiting for an answer from me. “I actu

  • Luna To Breeder   Chapter 27

    Amalthea’s POV “And Manila, please go easy on her.” Nicholson cautioned before leaving the room with Mikayla following behind closely along with Beta Callum. It was hard not to acknowledge her presence as I felt her eyes on me. I kept mine focused on the leftover wine bottle at the center of the table. For some reason, they didn't drink all of it and I wondered if that's how it always was or if someone was going to come from the kitchen to take it away. “You can have it if you want…” Her voice was soft and clear. I turned to her, “Huh??” I muttered in confusion even though I heard her perfectly. I didn't question myself too much on the fact that she read my mind quite easily. I mean, even I wasn't exactly being subtle too. I didn't know what to say after that. “I saw you staring at the wine so longingly. I know my brother can be so hard and principled especially when it comes to strength and excellence. I just wanted to say, it doesn't really matter, you know? You can have the wi

  • Luna To Breeder   Chapter 26

    Amalthea’s POV “Sorry, I am late. I had to get some things done.” Mikayla walked into the room. Her eyes held mine and for a second, I could see surprise in her eyes to see me seated at the table. I was going to say a whole lot of me too. I couldn't exactly phantom my use at the table. I was supposed to be a breeder and that was it. Just a simple breeder who did her training and got by. “Hey Amalthea, you did good at training today. I can see you are starting to pick up the ropes.” She complimented, taking off her coat and hanging it on a structure that up until she hung her coat, I thought it was just some tacky sculpture that was supposed to be abstract. “Thank you.” I did a little head bow, even though I was in a sitting position. I didn't know what else to do anyways. I touched the back of my hair to scratch an itch that was so deep inside the mass of my hair, I ended up snapping the hair clip out of place and that brought my hair down. I heard a gasp from Manila. By the time

  • Luna To Breeder   Chapter 25

    Amalthea’s POV “That was the former Alpha before he passed on.” A male voice said behind me. It wasn't a voice I recognized, so I turned in the direction of the voice to see a man in a bird-like mask, similar to the mask Alpha Nicholson wore the first day I saw him. The man in the mask also had a slightly similar build as Alpha Nicholson.“I wasn't aware…” My voice trailed off after he drew away from me and walked around the table of six. Two on each side of the rectangular table and one on both ends. It was the typical table of six you would expect. “You must be Amalthea,” the masked man said with a smile, which immediately put me at ease as I could tell they were genuine. “I’m Callum, the Pack’s Beta,” he introduced himself with a handshake and an even wider smile.Then I suddenly understood why Alpha Nicholson wore a mask–he was impersonating his Beta. Is that a regular occurrence between them?“Ahem,” Beta Callum cleared his throat and I realized I left his hand hanging.“I’

    Amalthea’s POV “What style of hair would you like?” Rose inquired.“Just something simple,” I replied. “I wouldn’t want to draw attention to myself.”“While I understand that you do not want the attention, remember you are the only newcomer at the table. All the attention will unintentionally be on you. If you know you are going to be the center of attention, then it's best I try to make you look the best you can.” She said with little persuasion in her voice. “A good first impression goes a long way.”“Alright, if you say so,” I muttered in agreement, and went to sit by the dresser.Rose started off by brushing my hair. She stopped halfway through and began applying some makeup. While she was busy with my makeup, an omega came to deliver a silver dinner gown, according to her, Alpha Nicholson sent it across.“This is lovely,” Rose beamed. “It would suit your hair perfectly.”I just smiled in response, not knowing what to make of all that’s happening. A few hours ago, I felt like I

    Amalthea’s POV The next few hours after Alpha Nicholson left my room went by in a blur. I laid in bed, tossing and turning all through until it was almost time for dinner.A knock came on the door, making my heart skip a beat, as I feared that Alpha Nicholson was back.I got out of bed, and opened the door with bated breath.“Good evening,” an omega greeted.“Good evening,” I breathed out in relief.The omega’s eyes twitched like she wanted to say something, but decided against it at the last minute.“ Alpha Nicholson asked me to inform you that you’ll be having dinner with him tonight.”“What?!” I gasped, and the omega stared at me in confusion. I slapped my hand over my mouth before I would say something I'd regret. “Why?” I managed to ask in a much calmer voice.“I have no idea, Ms.,” she answered. “My job is to pass the information across.”“Alright,thank you,” I muttered, and then closed the door behind me as soon as she left.Exhaling sharply, I headed to the bathroom for a qui

    `Nicholson's POV My conversation with Amalthea didn’t exactly go as expected. At first I thought she was hiding something due to the fact that her ear was beating twice as fast when I told her she had visitors. But, as soon as I cut to the chase about the werebears, she seemed genuinely confused, or maybe she was just a really good actor.But whichever the case maybe, something is definitely going on, and until I get to the bottom of it, I won’t rest.Grrrrrrr…The sound of my alarm going off pulled me out of my thoughts. I looked over at my phone screen and realized it was time to go pick up my cousin, Manila from the airport.I leaned back into my chair, and gently massaged my temples.I had more important things to worry about at the moment, but if I ditch picking her up from the airport like I promised, I’ll never hear the end of her whining non stop about me being a horrible brother.Manila is the only living family member I had left. Ever since we both lost our parents–under
