******Myra's POV******
"Leave this pack, and never dare to come back here again. If you dare return to this pack again and try to jeopardize my reign, rest assured, your death will be swift and merciless." Dorian's words rang in my ears again and again as he turned around and walked out of the garden. I was instantly paralyzed by fear of his threat. He wanted me to leave the pack and never return, which meant that I wasn't allowed to show my face to his parents either. He would kill me if I did. My wolf, phoenix, howled in pain at the rejection that just took place. She was clearly angered as well. "How dare he?!" She growled. I ignored her and just turned to walk back to my bedroom. My heart was heavy with pains and sorrows. I was this close to going nuts from everything that was happening. If I had known that things would turn out this way, I would never have listened to Dorian the first time he asked me to lay with him. Now I was left pregnant and rejected by the same man who promised me the entire world and made me feel special amongst my kind. I heard rumors around the pack that the Alpha was soon going to be mated to the lady from the Blackwood family, Dahlia Blackwood. But I shrugged the news off as just a rumor and went about the pack duties as usual. Each time I got scarred from cleaning and scrubbing the hard floors of the living room, I would come to report to Dorian about it, showing the injuries I got from each task. He would often kiss my hair and tell me to endure for a while. He would tell me that soon, I would become the Luna of the pack and I would punish all the maids who treated me unfairly. I lived with that hope for all these while and just when I thought everything was falling into place for me, Dorian crushed all the hope I held on to like a life line. The heaviness in my heart and the pain I felt was unbearable. The moment I walked into my little bedroom, I collapsed unto my knees and cried my whole heart out. I questioned everyone for how they treated me. My parents abandoned me at the door step of the Wildwood pack, Dorian who gave me hope when I felt all hope was lost, him also coming to crush that little hope he offered, leaving me shattered and a shell of my own self. "Myra don't cry." I heard phoenix say to me, but if I didn't cry, I would never feel better. Well, even if I cried, the pains would never go away. "How could he do this?" I asked her, my voice barely above a whisper. She sighed inwards, not able to give me a firm response. "Myra, he asked us to leave this pack." She said Instead. I hummed in response, shutting my eyes as that particular statement of killing me came back to my mind. "Yes, and that is exactly what i would do." I replied, pulling my knees up. Phoenix snorted, "Definitely not, we're not leaving." She said to my surprise. I frowned at that statement. "What?" "Yes, we're not leaving. He doesn't want his parents to find out that he got you pregnant so that his coronation ceremony would go smoothly, so we should ruin it for him." She reasoned. I replayed her words in my head and for some odd reason, it did make sense to me. Her words made a lot of sense. I knew the Alpha and the Luna to be people who loved fairness. Even though they wouldn’t accept me as their daughter in-law, I would still get a chance to be noticed and I would be offered a good life as well. So it was the best decision to inform them about my pregnancy. "You're so right, Nix." I said as a new ray of light shown in my darkened world. “I would definitely go to inform them about this." I said and stood up from the ground. "That's more like it. They would understand." With determination, I dashed out of the room and straight downstairs to the court yard where I knew the Luna and the Alpha would be present in. Just as I thought, they weren't alone when I arrived. Dorian was present, but he wasn't sitting alone too. My heart clenched when I saw his arms wrapped around a very beautiful looking lady. With smiles on their faces, they spoke to the Luna and the Alpha who were seated opposite them. Seeing me walk in, they all paused the conversation they were having. Dorian's eyes met mine and his eyes went wide in shock. Then his gaze darkened, as if guessing why I was there. I was fidgeting with the hem of my skirt and hurriedly lowered my gaze. Did he think he could just ruin my life and reject me just like that? "Yes, Myra? What is wrong?" The Luna asked me, her gentle voice gave me the confidence I was trying to gather. I looked up at her and into her clear dark eyes that resembled that of Dorian's. A small smile still evident on her lips. "Luna…." I paused, unable to find my voice and the courage I thought I came with. My breath hitched when my gaze shifted to Dorian's hand holding that pretty lady. The nerve of him to hold another woman. "Myra? Are you alright?" The Alpha asked this time, a concerned look in his eyes. I nodded and opened my mouth to speak again. But before i could form words, Dorian beat me to it. "Get lost if you have nothing to say." His words had a hidden meaning to it, one that was particularly directed at me. I clenched my fist, averted my gaze from his and turned back to look at the Alpha and Luna. "Alpha, Luna, I am pregnant for Dorian."******Myra's POV******After I had informed them about my pregnancy and the one responsible for it, the Luna and Alpha brought me over to the Pack's court. Dorian was brought in too and he stood before me as requested by the elders.I saw the anger and hatred he harbored for me in his dark eyes. My confidence faltered at some point when my gaze met his. If given a chance, there was no doubt that he would surely strangle me there and then."Dorian, what do you have to say about her claims, did you have an affair with her?" One of the Elders asked after a comfortable silence had passed.Dorian turned to look at me and glared at me."I'm innocent." He said without doubt and I held my breath.Murmurs filled the entire hall as everyone watched in confusion."But did you ever find out that she was your fated mate?" The elder pressed, waiting patiently for a reply from him.I clenched my fist as tears began to pool up in my eyes. I had no one to stand for me, no one to speak for me and supp
*****Myra's POV*****As I screamed in horror, I begged Dorian for help, but his eyes remained distant and cold.He just stood there, watching as the guards roughly dragged me away. I strained to catch a glimpse of him, but he soon disappeared from my sight.The guards took me straight to the dungeon, dragging me like a rag doll towards the entrance. Once we arrived, they threw me in without a second thought. As I fell onto the cold floor, tears streaming down my face, I could hear Phoenix howling and reassuring me that everything would be alright."Myra, please don't cry, it's going to be fine." Phoenix quipped, trying to make me feel better."Phoenix please stop with the empty reassurances. This will never be fine. I've been proven guilty before the entire court and I was sentenced to death. Phoenix I would be cremated! No, we would be cremated! You will die! I will die and you say it's going to be fine?!" I couldn't help the anger that surged through me as I lashed out. My words hun
*****Myra's POV***** My eyes fluttered open and I groaned, hand going to my head. Seeing the sudden unfamiliar room, I froze.I hurriedly bolted upright in bed, my heart pounding in my chest. Confusion washed over me as I struggled to make sense of my surroundings. Wait? I was alive? Wait, How was I even alive? I vividly remembered the searing pain of being consumed by flames, the scent of burning flesh filling my nostrils. I was certain that I had been cremated, my existence reduced to ashes. Yet here I was, wide awake.Before I could process my disbelief, the door swung open and a maid entered the room. Her eyes widened in surprise as she saw me sitting upright. "Luna Adeline! Oh, thank the goddess you're awake!" she exclaimed, her voice filled with relief and joy. Luna Adeline? Who was that? My name was Myra, or at least, it used to be.Confusion and disbelief mingled within me as I stared at the maid, my eyes searching for answers. Who was this Luna Adeline? And why did everyo
******Myra’s POV****** In order to escape giving an answer to that question, I had pretended to be sleepy and lay back down to make him leave. It worked and he finally left the room.When I opened my eyes again, Lira's amused voice followed next."That was one good way to send him away, but you know you can't keep ignoring him. You have to eventually see and talk to him.""Of course I know, but not now." I sighed. "I'll have to stay in this room for quite some time." I added exhaustedly.Lira protested immediately, "You can't stay in this room and do nothing. You'll have to leave this room to find the old witch!" She reminded me.I remembered in an instant and sighed in defeat."Alright, I'll leave to find her." "And you have to get up now." She added without wasting time. I clenched my fist, trying not to say anything to her. She was a Lycan after all."Lira, it's late already. Can I go tomorrow?" I asked instead. Lira remained quiet for a while before giving a small hum of appro
*****Reign’s POV*****“You escaped before, but not anymore, Adeline,” I said to her, watching as she suddenly tensed up.She stood there, watching me with that same wary look. It made my heart ache.Did she hate me so much?Why did being with me make her so miserable? Even after all these years of being together, she still loathed me to this point.Even after having a child together, she hated both me and her child.I sighed, feeling the heaviness of the situation pressing down on my shoulders. “If being with me is so unbearable, I’ll let you go. I’ll reject you and you can go live happily the way you’ve always wanted.” I said to her, holding her gaze with mine.But as usual, the look I expected to see wasn’t there. Unlike before when she would always have a blank expression, she looked quite sad right now.I smirked, taking two steps back, away from her.She said nothing about my offer, so that meant that she was fine with leaving me and our daughter.I turned around to leave, ready
*****Myra’s POV*****“You won’t find anything here,” Lira said for the untenth time as I kept searching the library for a book that could clearly explain everything to me. “There has to be something. Even as an omega at the Wildwood pack, I also visit the library at any given chance. Though not as often as Luna Adeline.” I said in between my search. Lira scoffed and said, “Snap out of it, only the witch can help you,”I ignored her and continued my search. “I already know, but I need to confirm it.” Just as I finished saying this, I finally found what I was busily searching for. The big book that had the words, “Soul Transfer and Reincarnation,” “This is it, I found it,” I muttered and carried it over to the table in the room. Taking a seat and preparing to read through it.Finding out the answers to my awakening was my only priority.There had to be a reason why I woke up in Luna Adeline’s body.I took a deep breath, steadying myself as I opened the thick, dusty book. The pages c
*****Myra’s POV*****I turned to look at Alpha Reign, who stood behind me with a stern look.I fidgeted with the dress, wanting to come up with a good excuse to dish out to him.“There’s no need to lie, just tell him you’re going to see the witch,” Lira said gently.“I’m off to see the pack’s witch,” I said immediately, panic laced in my tone. Reign gave me a skeptical look, but he nodded after a while.“Alright, go with the guard for your safety sake.” He instructed.I opened my mouth to reject, but Lira beat me to it. “Just accept it. Let’s go with the guard.”With no other choice left, I nodded and turned to leave as fast as possible.Being in Alpha Reign’s presence made me scared that he would see through me and find out the truth.When we were finally out of sight, I released the breath I never knew I was holding.“You have to relax, reign is nice and doesn't bite. Focus on what the witch has to say instead.” She interjected, and I hummed in response.We walked through the bushes
*****Myra’s POV*****Two days after I visited the witch’s cottage, everything seemed fine and normal afterward. I came to terms that I needed to blend into this new life as someone else, someone more powerful than my past self. There was a reason, of rather behind this, so I had to accept what was offered to me. Lira was still very much angered, but I knew she would come around eventually.Today, with the sun setting on the horizon, I decided to make a meal for the Alpha and his daughter whom I was yet to get close to, knowing that the girl’s name was still a mystery to me.I got out of bed, feeling the mix of determination and excitement coursing through me. I made my way to the bathroom, had a bath, and took in deep refreshing breaths as I headed towards the kitchen after stepping out of my bedroom.When I arrived at the kitchen, I was greeted by the maids already preparing to make the meal for the day. “Greetings, Luna Adeline.” A maid whom I suspected was the head maid bowed a
*****Myra’s POV*****My breath hitched as I still lay frozen beneath with his lips on mine. My lips tingled from the unexpected kiss the moment he pulled away. The warmth of his body hovered over me, but it was the feel of his lips on mine that left me frozen in shock. It wasn’t like anything I had ever tasted before. My mind swirled in confusion— this wasn’t supposed to happen. I wasn’t supposed to feel anything, especially not for the man whose wife I was pretending to be. I watched as Alpha Reign pulled back, his eyes still half closed as if savoring the moment. I knew I should have pulled away when his lips crashed on mine, but the witch's words echoed in my mind: “There is a reason why you woke up again, use Reign to complete the task you couldn’t complete.”I gazed at him, never looking away from the shyness from before.My lips parted and closed up again.“I know what you’re thinking, Myra. Please don’t do it. He is someone else’s husband.” Lira tried to stop me and make me u
*****Myra's POV*****I lay on my bed in my room, staring at the white sterile ceiling. The pains from earlier seemed to be gone, and I could finally breathe again. Lira insisting that I visit the witch again was unacceptable. What was I supposed to say to Alpha Reign if he eventually caught me going for the second time? I just couldn't do it, at least not yet. The darkness crept in and fell over the horizon.I slowly got out of bed, walking towards the window to take in some fresh air at least.I always did this back at the Wildwood pack, I would often come to sit by the window of Dorian's bedroom each time I snuck in. The night sky had this refreshing moment attached to it. Unlike Dorian who never liked darkness, I liked the darkness more than anything else. Just then, I heard the sound of clinking swords. Someone else was awake at this time? At the Wildwood pack, once it was dark, there would be stillness and silence till the sun rose again. But in this pack, someone was still
