I couldn't believe it had worked. Alpha Kai had made love to me with open arms. From the rump I had, I knew the difference between an Alpha and a Beta. The strength gap was far too wide.
Kai felt guilty for his actions. Taking his son's mate under him was something to be ashamed of. I was sure he couldn't believe it himself, but he had been seduced. It wasn't the first time he'd been seduced, but it was the only time he leaned in for it. I had something special that made him attracted and wanting. I could feel he felt vulnerable and tried to keep away from me. "Good morning, Father,” I bent to greet him, pretending nothing happened the night before. Kai looks at her from head to toe, remembering what he had done. It was pretty hard to forget it. He ruminates around the corners, pretending to be looking for something. "Father?" I pestered him, trying to get a word out of his mouth. "Good morning to you, Lorenzo," he replies, avoiding eye contact. I could sense something fishy in his eye movements and decided to ask what was going on. Kai is still ruminating when I come forward, making him gaze directly at my hips. Stealing a glance at me, he shrieks, moving away. I could feel the heat he was giving off. It was the perfect chance to get back at Teagan, and I wasn't going to miss it. All I needed was for Kai to make me his Luna and make Teagan bow before me, apologizing for his wrong actions of not believing me when I said I didn't sleep with his father. "You know you don't need to be shy with me around. I am here if you need anything. I move towards him, behaving like an obsessed being. My hair was scattered, with my nightgown still on. "Alpha Kai, young master Teagan is here with his new mate to receive your blessings. “A young male omega appears before us. He is swept off his feet when he sees my outfit. "Damn," he blurted out unconsciously. My body was so giving that he didn’t know when he started drooling. “You can leave; I’ll meet him in the living room,” Kai says, walking towards his bedroom. I couldn't help but chuckle seeing Kai and the omega almost falling into a trance. I knew my body was a killing machine that no man could avoid. I turn back in an attempt to enter my room when I bump into something. I looked up to see who had been so reckless and devious to hit me head-on. I stepped back a little, not believing the image my eyes brought up. Right before me was my blood sister, Bridget Nolan. Bridget, my younger sister, is the definition of a hottie. She had the perfect body and curve like her older sister, but this time she was much prettier. Genetic evolution is in play. Bridget wasn't as strong as me and not as fierce as me, being the weak little sister I had always fended for. "What are you doing here?" Bridget asks. "I should be asking you that. Teagan is right outside where you want him, and there you are coming to meet his father in the bedroom," I let out, not letting my emotions get in the way. "Oh, I see what's going on here, “Bridget says, looking at the nightgown I was putting on. "Whatever is going on here is none of your business; after now, you have betrayed me, your blood sister." I stammered as our eyes made contact. "So that's what this is about. You're still angry that Teagan chose me over you." Bridget comes closer, trying to piss me off. "He won't dare choose you over me," I said, throwing back the accusations she laid down. I calmed down, knowing how annoying her younger sister was. I pulled away, moving towards the room Kai had offered. As I am about to open the door, I feel my head hurting. I bring my hands together, positioning them on my head, touching the spot to ascertain what had happened and to relieve the pain a little. Upon bringing my hands back into sight, I spot blood—my blood. "I hope you know what's coming for you,” I let out as my eyes changed color from normal blue to plain white. Unlike other werewolves, I was known as the ghost wolf. The title Ghost Wolf given to me is based on my powerful white eyes and indestructibility in my wolf form. "What do you want to do? Call dear Teagan for me." Bridget growled as her fangs slowly evolved. *Oh, it's on." I move towards Bridget, taking her by the neck and throwing her onto the table. About to hit Bridget in the face, Bridgpushedhes her leg up, throwing me onto the ceiling, I fell right down, hitting my back on the broken table. "He isn't good enough for you, Bridget," I let out, taking Bridget by the neck and pushing her closer. "You're just jealous that he picked me instead of you. It's always like that. You always want the good things in life for yourself without thinking about others," Bridget says, smashing her fist onto my face. "You're wrong. I take control, smashing her into the wall beside them. "You've always been wrong, Bridget. You never know when to start, nor do you know when to stop. You're just the same old geezer that wanted everything I had. I smashed Bridget further into the wall, making her bleed in pain. "What if I am jealous? You've always had it all. Beauty, strength, power, a seductive body, and the perfect mate. Who wouldn't be jealous?" Bridget laughs it up with blood in her mouth. "Maybe I was correct about you. You aren't the younger sister I gave my life to. You're just a jealous young lady," I declared, raising her fist into the air. "So what do you want to do now? Kill me? Eliminate me?" Bridget said, ripping my nightgown apart. "Maybe it's time for you to return home,” I say, clutching my hands in the air and making a perfect fist. "You don't have the guts. You're just that scared sister that acts tough to hide her weakness." A smirk appears on Bridget's lips. "Maybe I am.".Something was restraining my arm from landing the finishing blow on Bridget. Glancing from an angle, I could see another arm holding me down. “Alpha Kai,” I stuttered. I yelped, looking at the fierce-looking figure holding my hand. This isn’t what I thought was going to happen. Apart from killing my younger sister, I expected nothing else. “Get your filthy hands off my girl. Who the hell do you think you are?” Teagan enters the room, throwing me to the ground and helping Bridget up. “Your girl?.” My breathing spiked as I was losing control at a rapid rate. If I continued with a spiked breath, I was sure to wolf out. Kai suddenly held my hands, pulling me up with a smile on his lips. Everyone in the room was stunned. The ruthless Alpha was smiling. What was happening? “Don’t wolf out just yet, Lorenzo. You still have plenty of days left to do that,” Kai urged as he took me in for a hug. Teagan’s jaw dropped as his father’s hands moved towards my waist, hugging me like he was
The room felt less ventilated. No one was settled; everyone had gloomy looks on their faces. Fear spelled itself out clearly in our eyes as we watched Teagan groan in pain. Wolfsbane is also known as a toxic plant that spells death for werewolves. It has the power to prevent them from transforming into their wolf form, weaken them, or, in the extreme, eliminate them. It was the best-known poison that all werewolves ran from. Its power most graciously gave a surprise toxin; none stood before it. "What should we do? Should I call the doctor? Kai trembled, looking at his only son, pleading for his life. He couldn't watch his son gasp for air. It wasn't pleasing to the eye. He couldn't watch his son die. "Calling the doctor is impossible at a time like this. After a few more minutes of watching, he'll be on the brink of death," I spat out, running towards my room. "What should we do?" Bridget asks in fear. She couldn't lose him, either. "Fuck, I forgot my scalpel at the inn." I s
Teagan's POV It was the claiming ceremony day, our claiming ceremony day. It would be best described as her claiming ceremony because she was the one claiming me. I didn't want her but the Moon Goddess had chosen her as my mate. My mate was no other one than the destructive Lorenzo Nolan. She possessed this power that made men tremble in front of her. Though she loved me and she was always fighting for my love no matter what she did, I would never reciprocate her love. I was the mighty Teagan Finn, handsome, wealthy, and the only son of the strongest Alpha Kai. My status as the future Alpha was already sealed. It was undoubted, certain, and irreversible. I was the only guy on this island that all the girls were swooning over. The already mated ones also wanted to have a taste of me. How possible is it that despite how eligible I was, as a bachelor, I would be mated to the scariest woman on the island? Honestly, I couldn't deny her beauty but I wanted a woman I could control
Teagan's POV I was shocked for a moment. I just broke up with her sister that I claimed a few months ago and she wanted me to claim her again. Some girls could be reckless. At the moment, I couldn't go against her order. I accepted like an obedient dog and put my hand under her dress to lift them off her legs. She held my hand again, her power wasn't enough to deter me but due to some things that were not even clear to me, I stopped immediately. "You have to make it public. You must take me to Alpha Kai, he must endorse our union," she gave another condition but it didn't feel like something that I couldn't provide. "Of course, who will be the first to know about it? We are going to him right away." I caressed her cheek to put her in the mood. "Once we have finished this great task in front of us!" I added seductively. She hesitated for a while before crawling out from underneath me. I became weak, I thought she was going away. I was sad but I wasn't going to force her. Sh
Bridget's POV My stomach grumbled as Lorenzo walked into the yard in her flowing gown. I felt like exploding. It was Lorenzo's claiming ceremony. She was mated to Teagan, the future Alpha. She was also the destroyer with the strange power. It was always her. She always got everything. She was a cheat, a backstabber, and a wicked sister. I was going to stop her. I wanted to become the Luna and when I had achieved that, I would make her bow in front of me and lick my foot. And then, I, Luna Bridget, would make her life nothing but hell. I was jolted back into consciousness by the sudden uproar of the crowd. They were cheering as Lorenzo lifted her veil, an act that she should be condemned for. Instead, they were commending her. Lorenzo bowed before Alpha Kai. "I greet you, Father," she said with humility and Alpha Kai sprang up from his throne seat to hug her. I knew I had no chance of dragging Alpha Kai's favor with Lorenzo. Alpha Kai was so proud of her. He already took h
Alpha Kai's POV In the Crescent Moon Pack which I lorded over as the Alpha, Lorenzo Nolan was my most beloved member of the pack. She had everything in the right proportion. She was powerful, beautiful and humble. She commanded a fair share of fear and affection in the minds of the people. She deserved more from this pack as she had done a lot for us. Despite how she was not appreciated enough, she didn't react poorly. As luck would have it, she was the mate to my only son and future Alpha, Teagan Finn. I should be happy that my son got a great woman as her mate but I wasn't. Instead, I felt bad for Lorenzo. Teagan was not enough for her. She deserved better. My son was the unappreciative kind. I always feared that his reign might be short-lived as many might decide to dethrone him due to his careless and reckless behavior. He was the man of the girls. Almost all the young girls in the pack want a taste and he took that opportunity, using most of them beyond redemption. He had
Lorenzo's POV I was a kid at that time, the last time when the palace yard was filled to the brim like this. Since it had been announced that a new Luna would be unveiled, the anticipation of the members of the pack was massive and unbearable. Personally, I had mixed feeling. I was afraid that the members wouldn't be in support of my status as the Luna. I was too fearful. Secondly, I got claimed by Teagan, few months ago. Won't that act affect the nobility of the Luna and the reputation of the Crescent Moon Pack? I watched from the high window that stood over the yard. I wouldn't go there until I had been invited. My thoughts were racing. I was thinking of what I could do if the pack rejected me as the Luna. Alpha Kai wouldn't take it but it would be shameful for me. The merriments died down as Alpha Kai rose to address the crowd. He jumped down from the high podium where the special seats were and walked slowly into the arena where all the entertainers had been performing, wi
Teagan's POV I couldn't believe my ears when I heard the words. Alpha Kai was even signaling to me to sit down. We were at the yard for the celebration and unveiling of the Luna. That's what we were told by my tricky father, only to be met with the formation of a council named Council of Protectors. Ashamed, I sat down back burying my head. I had never felt so ashamed in my life and it happened in the presence of this mammoth crowd. My face was instantly consumed by a dark cold expression. "I, Alpha Kai Finn, am the commander and the fifth member of the Council of Protectors," Alpha Kai concluded and my ear twitched. I started breathing heavily. It felt like I was having a bad dream. The crowd's jeering went up after the announcement. It felt like it was purposely done to mock me. Later, some fools came into the arena to entertain the crowd for a while and all their acts were nothing but portrayals of my humiliation. "Now that the mother of the palace has arrived. She will b
Lorenzo's pov I watched in horror, as Bridget trembling in the ground, her soul slowly slipping out of her body. I screamed and tears blurred my eyes as I cradled my sister's lifeless body, this is the second person I will be losing to Teagan today. Anger surged in me at the thought of it, he's going to pay for their lives. I stood up and gave a fierce roar and raced into the palace to find Teagan. I must find him, I vowed, and when I do he's going to pay for the lives he took. As I ran, my heart was heavy with rage and grief at the same time, I could feel the rage surging through me. Teagan will pay for what he has done. He has awakened a beast. My feet echoed off as I pounded down the palace corridor, my eyes blazing with fury. I could smell Teagan, a faint scent but unmistakable, it led me deeper into the palace walls. My power surged through me, fueling my strength and speed as his scent grew thicker. Then I hear footsteps ahead growing fainter. I followed the soun
Teagan's pov I snarled as I charged towards my father, I knew I was in for the fight of my life. Our blades clashed, sparks flew as we exchanged blow after blow I knew I was no match for him but I was not going to give up either. "I don't understand why you won't die at once, why must you come back" I said to him as our swords clashed. He landed a solid kick to my stomach and I fell and rolled on the ground. "You are no match for me, Teagan," he said and spat "You are meant to be the Alpha it's your birthright but sending people to kill your own father so you can be the Alpha is something else, you are just so desperate". I grunted, and quickly stood back up," My birthright?, oh you think I don't know how you and that bitch Lorenzo have been planning to give that birthright away". Our swords clashed, "First you stole my mate, I let that slide and you still expect me to sit while you take my birthright". He gave me a hard punch to my jaw, which made me stumble back, "stol
Lorenzo's pov The night we've been nervously waiting for has arrived, the moon was shining bright in the sky as we prepared to move to the palm tree to wait for Rizzo as planned. As we were waiting for Rizzo's arrival, I was lost in my thoughts, I stared at my barely visible baby bump and thought about everything that led us here. I thought about everything that I'd gone through and wondered what the outcome of this battle was going to be and what the future holds for us. I have always been confident about my fighting skills but suddenly felt scared about this battle. I looked at Kai, Vera, and Alex and I could see they were lost in thoughts also. Not so long after that Rizzo finally made his way towards us. "Ready?", I asked Rizzo my voice barely audible, after waiting for him for what seemed like an eternity. He nodded in response "Let's move out" then signaled to his men hiding in the nearby bushes. I Ied my team to the east gate, our sword drawn. We had to move fast
Kai's pov The following night, Vera and Alex met Rizzo, Lorenzo, and I met up again in Rizzo's living room to go over the plan but this time around with a sense of urgency and focus. "Okay let's go over this again," Alex said with a sharp voice. "Alpha Kai's team will take out the guards at the main entrance of the palace. Lorenzo's team will make an entrance through the east gate and take all the guards there down. After the guards are clear then I and my team will come in". We all nodded in response, our face set with determination and passion. What's the timeline? Vera asked "The feast is starting at night and I will have to be there" Rizzo replied "Once is midnight I will sneak out of the feast and meet you guys at the old palm tree and from there we will move into positions, and then we will make our moves". We went over the plan a few more times making sure everyone took note of their move and timing. As we finished the meeting, I felt fulfilled and grateful to m
Kai's pov We moved swiftly through the shadows, the moon cast its glow over the pack territory. I scanned the surroundings it was just how I remembered. The air was thick with a familiar scent, I felt a thrill of mixed feelings as Lorenzo and I slipped past the guards and made our way into the pack disguised as traders. I scanned everywhere to look for Alex then suddenly a dark figure emerged from the darkness. It was Alex, "I've been waiting for you" his voice was low and urgent", there's been a last-minute change of plan, Meet us at Rizzo's place" and with that he walked away. My heart skipped a beat this was unexpected, we had planned to make move tonight, I looked at Lorenzo and she rolled her eyeball. My mind was racing with different questions, why weren't they sticking with the original plan, why the last-minute change? As we walked to Rizzo's place "I hope Rizzo isn't trying to back out now cause I don't trust him" Lorenzo mumbled Our senses were on high alert as
Lorenzo's pov "Lorenzo, Alpha Kai" Vera said with her eyes widened and she covered her mouth with her hands. Tears gathered at the corner of her eyes," I knew it, I knew you were still alive, I could still feel you around" she said with a low steady voice "I miss you witch", I said laughing, "I was so glad I was still able to reach you through this portal "I waited, days, weeks, months for you to reach out to me through it but later gave up since I saw no message," Vera said still shocked. She kept exchanging gazes between Kai and me as if to confirm if it wasn't a dream. I gave her details about everything that happened to us, from meeting Tina to Kai finding me, and the attack in the forest, I told her everything without missing any details. "Vera, we need your help, Kai and I want to come back to take our place, but we want to know the situation over there and make a proper plan before doing that," I said with my voice barely audible. Kai nodded in agreement"We want
Lorenzo's pov My eyes were on Alpha Kai as he sat on a chair sitting strong and composed, it was a sight I thought I would never see again. It's been weeks since I ran with Alpha Kai on my back to Tina's cottage to ask for her help, my heart aches anytime I remember the state I brought him in. But now he's recovering all thanks to Tina's help and care, and his broad shoulders and chest are once more radiant, I still find it hard to believe that someone I met randomly while running away from my mate could play a big role in my life. I smiled as I stirred the pot of soup I was cooking in the kitchen, I couldn't help but I felt relieved and peaceful, I had forgotten all about why I was running from Alpha Kai that day, and all the resentment had now vanished, I even blame myself for the attack in the forest because if I wasn't running away they won't have gotten the chance to attack us. Tina smiled at Alpha Kai as she came into the cottage, wrinkles formed at the corner of her eyes
Bridget pov "OMG, Teagan is going crazy there's nothing anybody can tell me," I said to myself pacing back and front in my chamber "How could he do something like that to Carmen, she helped his sorry life". I went to the throne room to patiently wait for him till he came back. My eyes narrowed at Teagan as he walked inside the throne room, fuming the anger I started shouting at him "You are the most ungrateful person I've ever met in my life, you are the betrayal here, you betrayed someone that helped you, without her I'm sure you won't be here" I said nodding towards the throne "yet you killed her you ungrateful bastard". "She is a spy, don't you know what that means, everything she did for me was also part of their plan, they will eventually kill me the same way they killed my father. She's a threat to our pack" Teagan said justifying his actions. My eyes twisted in anger" You are the most selfish person ever, you counted her as a threat and you decided to eliminate her".
Teagan's pov I stood on the podium in the middle of the town, I could see everyone crumbled in the square, the sun cast a golden glow over the town, the air was thick with tension, my eyes were cold and stern, the executioner, Rizzo, and the elders of the clan were standing beside me. A loud murmur erupted from the crowd as they paved to make way for the guards bringing Carmen bound with heavy chains, her eyes heavy, full of unspoken words as she was led to the podium. The guards halted at the front of the podium and Carmen was forced to her knees before me, her eyes tried to hide her emotions but I could see the fear behind them. "Carmen Eudora, a spy from Sliver Moon Park" Rizzo announced his voice ringing out across the town's square " you took our pack's kindness for granted, you've been found guilty of treason against the crescent moon pack, and by the order of the Alpha you have been sentenced to death by beheading". A loud noise came from the crowd immediately after Riz
