Chapter 11

Alpha Kai's POV

After Ace left, the guard allowed the important members of the pack in. I appointed three of them to deal with some matters regarding the pack and outside the pack, since Ace already has so much work to do and I as the Alpha, can't possibly handle everything on my own.

“Alpha,” they all greet and bow in respect.

I respond to their greeting and lead them toward another room where my office is. I sat behind my huge mahogany desk as they all sat in front of me. “What do you have for me?” I command in my authoritative voice.

“Some men we've identified as part of the green land pack attacked the southern territory and ransacked the warehouses there. Our guards tried to stop them, but members of the green land pack were more in numbers, and they came completely prepared, we lost all the goods and supplies there and a total of ten guards were lost, the rest injured,” one of the men explained.

“What!,” I shouted feeling livid as my fist met with the desk causing a l

    Chapter 12Ace's POV“W…what?” I asked stunned.“Exactly what you heard,” he replies, sipping his whiskey, which he had just served himself.“What do you mean by she does not have a wolf? Is she human?” I ask because that is the only reasonable explanation right now.“She's not human, she's a werewolf who's wolfless,” he says.I took a seat in front of him, trying to absorb the information I just heard. “Is that even possible? How can there be a werewolf who doesn't have a wolf, I mean a wolf is what makes a person a werewolf, right?” I asked baffled.“Well, you just met someone who doesn't have a wolf, your innocent sister-in-law Lexa, so it's very possible,” he mutters sarcastically.“Is that why you've refused to accept her, and you are treating her badly?” I ask.“Should there be a bigger reason than this? She lied to me, she knew about her state all this while, yet she deceived me into performing the mating ceremony, should I be buying her flowers every day and worshiping her aft

Or did he find out about my wolfless state?Ace had helped me after the Alpha mercilessly slapped me. He brought me to the doctor's place and even treated my wounds. Did his brother tell him? Does he hate me now too? I looked into his blue eyes that were filled with questions, I couldn't bare to keep looking at him, so I stared at my fiddling fingers instead. He's going to leave me too, after all, who would want to stay with a burden like me? I will be all alone again.“I…I'm so sorry I lied, I didn't know how to tell you or if it was my place to say anything, I do apologize for deceiving you, I don't even know what to say or how to make you forg...,” I don't even know when I start crying, my swollen cheeks adding to the pain I'm currently feeling.

Is he going to make me like and depend on him, only to leave me hanging in the end? I have trust issues now, you can't blame me, not after all that has happened to me. Good looks won't fool me this time. I have learned my lesson the hard way. I peer into his eyes, trying to find out if he has any other ulterior motive.“Lexa? What are you thinking about?” he asks me, still smiling.“Why do you want to be friends with me?” I questioned him curiously.“Should there be a reason?” he asks meekly, brushing some strands of hair that have fallen on his face away, looking all cute.Nice try, but I won't fall for that easily.I nod my head vigorously, “There should be a reason, you've been very nice and accommodating since you met me,”. He was nice to me even before finding out I was wolfless, so it woul

    Chapter 15Alpha Kai's POVI sit in my office staring at the door Ace just walked out off. He actually dared to walk out on me. Ace has never raised his voice at me before, ever, in his life. I picked out the shards of glass on my skin without flinching, blood pooled on my table, but I didn't care. I didn't feel the pain, since it will heal soon enough.Ace and I had an argument all because of that bitch. Why would he take her side? He should agree with me, taking my side like he always had. Only me! I'm his brother. He even walked out on me. I can't believe this. This is all that girl's fault. She's the reason we argued, she's going to pay for this. I will punish her so badly that she would wish she was never born. Here I was thinking I'd finally found my fated mate, what a joke! The moon goddess must be having the time of her life, laughing at my expense.“Kai!” Ralph, my wolf, growls.“What?” I reply dejectedly.“Why is our mate so weak?

I wasn't expecting that question and to be honest, I didn't understand why I wanted to be close to her too. I looked into her bright hazel eyes, the most beautiful shade I'd ever seen, and I felt enchanted. She was having difficulty trusting me, which made my heart break, but I can understand how she feels.She has built a wall around her heart to prevent herself from being hurt again, and I'm going to slowly break down that wall until she learns to start trusting again. And when she said all those things about herself, It felt like I was getting hurt also. I know about self-pity and loathing and if she continued, it would consume her until she loses herself completely. I had to reassure her to make her have confidence in herself again. She has been through a lot, and Kai was not helping matters at all.He is her mate who was s

I feel instant relief from all that has been going on. I reluctantly get out of the tub after spending a lot of time in it. I slip into a beautiful matching nightgown made of silk. Ace really put a lot of thought into my room. I even have a closet filled with beautiful clothes and pieces of jewelry. I leave my hair down, letting it cascade down my back in waves.I open my windows and the cool breeze cools my skin. It is a windy night and the pack is bustling with activities. There's a half-moon in the sky with plenty of twinkling stars. This pack is indeed a magnificent pack, it even looks better than it sounds in stories. It is easily three times the size of Grey wood pack and surpassed it in terms of beauty and charm. Children were running around and playing outside under the moonlight.A knock on the door makes me leave the window, I tie

I feel completely naked under his gaze and tried to cover myself properly with my robe that has almost fallen off, but he held my hand tightly and stops me. His big hands wrap around my small wrists, and his touch feels extremely cold making goosebumps appear on my exposed skin. I look down and avert my eyes from his, he grabs my chin and raises my head to look up at him. My breath hitches when I look into his dark blue orbs.“And since when has this friendship started?” he asks huskily. His voice laced with arrogance, his lips just an inch away from mine, his warm minty breath fanning my face, my heart starts hammering loudly in my chest, a part of me wants his lips to meet mine, the places he touches me all tingly all over. But a more reasonable, sensible part of me screamed at me to run for the hills for this didn't seem right.I'm surprised at how calm his voice is, doesn't he hate me? Why is he acting

I walk into my room and Kira shut the door behind us. I willed myself not to cry in front of her. “Luna? Let me help you out of your clothes, or you will catch a cold,” she says worriedly.I nod, and she helps me to the bathroom, where I take off my nightgown and change into a new set of red nightwear Kira brought out of my closet for me. She leads me to sit on a chair and used a clean towel to dry my dripping hair. All this while, I just sit and stare into space like a statue.“You look pale, Luna, should I get you a cup of warm tea?” she asks.“No,” I mumbled weakly.

I had brought the best midwives from different packs hoping that would help her deliver faster and easier, but her cries and screams told me otherwise.A midwife runs out of the room with her hands covered in blood. I started to panic out of fear.“Alpha, we need more hot water and towels,” she said hurriedly. I quickly turn around to the maids behind me.“You heard what she said, get it right away!” I bark at them and they scurry away. The midwife tries to go back in, but I step in front of her.“What is going on? Is she okay?” I asked worriedly.“We can't say for now Alpha, the matter is complicated, but we will try our best to make sure the mother and child are okay,” she said.“Ahhhhhhhh!” Alexa screams out in pain again. “Let me in.

This is my life now, a life full of misery and pain.I wipe the tears that are falling down my cheeks with my hands as I sniffle. I can't remember the last time I smiled or laughed. To me, laughing is a luxury I just can't afford anymore. And it's not just me, everyone in the pack house moves around like living corpses. The pack house is now nothing but a shadow of its former self. We are all just pushing and fighting our way forward. There's something missing- a huge gap in everyone's heart that I'm not sure can be filled any longer.

Greywood pack house. The place where I was born and raised. A place filled with love, laughter, pain, misery and the worst of all- betrayal. "Shall we?" Ace asks trying to take my hand. I grab my dress instead and walk away from him towards the house. He follows behind me with his guards. We all walk in and waited in the living room. My hands gently touch the sofa and the walls. I hardly recognize this place, it looks totally different from how it used to be. Uncle Gaius had totally changed the whole place."Alpha Ace," I hear the voice of the man that his betrayal is deeply rooted within me. The start of my miseries and misfortunes."And who might this young lady be?" he asks. My back is turned towards him so he could not see my face."Nice renovation uncle," I said turning towards him.

I gazed at him skeptically, wondering if he didn't hear me very well.“My sweet sweet Lexa,” he smiles, cupping my chin. “You became mine, the second I laid my eyes on you. You don't know how elated I felt when I saw you for the first time standing in the garden as the wind whipped your hair around. My fingers twitched to run my hands through your hair,” he asserts, touching my hair. I swat his hand away.“Do not touch me or else…,” I threaten, my eyes blazing with fury.“I fucking love the fire burning like embers in your hazel eyes right now,” he smirks, coming within close proximity to me.

I won't kill you, but by the time I'm done with you, you will pray for death instead,” he threatens.“What is that supposed to mean?” the Chief asks incredulously.“Carol and Leon. Maybe I should go play with them a bit. What do you think?” he asks, tilting his head thoughtfully. The Chief's face fell.“You are going to use my family as leverage just to make sure I agree to your demands?” he mutters in disbelief.“You left me no other choice. Either you accept to continue being the Chief and your family lives, or you reject, your family dies, and you will continue being Chief,” he shrugs nonchalantly.“You are a psychopath!” he utters with disdain.“I hear that often.

Please tell me that he is alive, and I was just having a bad dream.She sighs. “Alpha Kai died on the battlefield. He has been buried,” she replies.
