2024-10-29 19:42:56Daniel’s P.O.V
I couldn't bear to look back. The pain of leaving Linda behind seared through my chest like a hot iron, but I knew I had to do it. My duty to the pack and my responsibility to protect my sister outweighed my desires. It tore me apart to see Linda's tear-stained face, her pleas echoing in my mind as I walked away.I couldn't shake the image of Linda standing there, her hand pressed to her heart. I had always been captivated by her spirit, her fierce determination, but now our love seemed destined to remain a forbidden dream.Since childhood, I had adored her, hoping she would be my destined mate. She was everything I wanted, and the absolute love of my life, my love for her knew no bounds. When I vowed to be with her forever, I meant every word.But reality demanded that I fulfill my role. As an orphan, I had sworn to protect my sister, and now that vow echoed through my mind. The path I had chosen meant sacrificing my own happiness for the sake of my loved ones.Just as I thought i was alone with my thoughts, a familiar voice broke through the stillness. "Daniel! Daniel, wait up!" called out a familiar voice. I turned to see my younger sister, Emily, running towards me, with concern evident on her face.Breathing heavily, Emily caught up to me, her eyes wide with worry. "Daniel, what are you doing? I heard about Linda. Are you okay? Are you in trouble?"I sighed, my gaze filled with both affection and sadness. "Emily, I'm fine. But things have changed. Linda and I... we can't be together."Tears welled up in Emily's eyes as she looked at her brother, her voice trembling. "But why, Daniel? I've seen how much you love her. Is it because of the Alpha? Is he forcing you to give her up?"I gently placed a hand on Emily's shoulder, my voice was filled with a mix of sadness and determination. "It's complicated, Em. The Alpha's claim on Linda is strong, and going against it would put our entire pack at risk. I can't let that happen. I have to protect you."Emily's eyes filled with both understanding and defiance. "But what about your own happiness, Daniel? Don't you deserve love too? Is sacrificing your own feelings the only way?, you are always sacrifice your happiness for mine. When will you be truly happy?.A pained expression crossed my face as i met my sister's gaze. "Sometimes, Em, we have to make difficult choices for the greater good. Love can be a powerful force, but so is duty and responsibility. I can't put our pack or you in danger just to pursue my own happiness. Linda and I have to accept our separate paths."Emily's shoulders slumped, tears streaming down her cheeks. "I hate this, Daniel. I hate that you have to bear this burden. It's not fair, the pack doesn’t care about you neither does the alpha. Ever since mom and dad died, it has been all been work, work, work. Linda was the only one who helped ease the pain. The pack only mourned for few days and forgot about us. Why can’t you fight for her or come up with a plan that could make the alpha reject her. I’m sure the alpha wouldn’t want a troublesome Luna.”I looked into my sister's tear-filled eyes, my heart aching with both love for her and the weight of his responsibility. Emily's words cut through me like a knife, stirring a mix of frustration and longing within me. I understood her pain and her desire for me to fight for my own happiness.“Emily, I wish it were that simple," I said, his voice filled with a heavy sigh. "But the Alpha's claim on Linda is strong, and defying it would have severe consequences for our pack. I can't jeopardize everyone's safety for my own desires."Emily reached out and clasped my hand, her grip warm and supportive. “No matter what choice you make, Daniel, I'll be there for you. Take your time to reflect and reach a final decision. I understand your fear of the alpha, but don't let it rob you of your happiness."“Thank you Em, I love you”, I replied, hugging her briefly.While walking away, my mind raced with conflicting emotions as i contemplated my sister Emily's words. Could there be another way? A plan that would allow me to protect Linda and my love without jeopardizing my sister’s life? The idea began to take hold, and i felt a glimmer of hope amidst the darkness.“I must speak with Linda immediately,” I thought.My heart weighed heavy as I approached Linda's house. The memories of our shared love and the promise of a future together lingered in my mind, but a sense of foreboding crept over me. I had to see Linda, to tell her about Emily's idea and also to find solace in her embrace while praying she isn’t mad about what I said in the forest during our last meeting.However, fate had other plans in store for me. As i reached Linda's doorstep, I lightly knocked on the door. The maid, Sarah answered the door."Daniel," she said softly, her voice tinged with curiosity. "What brings you here by this time of the day? Is something wrong?”“Hello Sarah, is Linda in?,” I asked hurriedly.I'm sorry, but Linda isn't here. She's gone for the day." She answered.My heart sank as disappointment washed over me. “Gone? Where did she go to?"Sarah paused for a moment, her brow furrowing in thought. "I'm not exactly sure, Daniel. She and her parents left the house not long ago. I'm not exactly sure where they went. You can check back later or leave a message, and I'll make sure she gets it, if you don't mind."A mix of concern and curiosity surged through me. “Not to worry Sarah, I’ll come back later. Thank you.” I turned to take my leave, pondering on where they all went to in the middle of the day as I headed back to the palace to carry out my duties.Related chapters

State your business."My father cleared his throat, his voice steady yet tinged with apprehension. "We are here to seek an audience with Alpha Blackwood. It concerns our daughter, Linda."The guard scrutinized us for a moment, then nodded curtly. "Very well. Proceed."With a collective breath, we entered the grand mansion and were led to the meeting hall. Theroom was opulent, adorned with tapestries and intricate carvings.

Meanwhile, my father sat across from my mother, his expression marked by sadness and worry. His eyes met mine, and we shared a moment of understanding. However, I couldn't find it within myself to eat. A knot tightened in my stomach, a physical manifestation of the sadness and anxiety I felt. She pushed her food around her plate, unable to bring herself to take a bite.My father glanced at me, concern etched in his features. "Linda, sweetheart, aren't you hungry? You need to eat something."I mustered a weak smile, my voice laced with sadness. "I'm just not feeling well, Dad. It's hard to eat when my stomach is tied up in knots."My mother, unaware of the inner turmoil I was experiencing, chimed in cheerfully. "Oh, Linda, you're missing out on such a delicious meal! The flavors are exquisite. You should try some."Observing my lack of response, my mother raised her voice s

Daniel’s P.O.VI stormed away from the meeting hall, feeling a mix of sadness and anger. I muttered to myself, frustrated with Linda for not waiting and mad at myself for being too slow to meet her before the ceremony. I blamed myself for asking her to let go when she wanted to fight for our love. Jake, my wolf, shared my frustration. We had loved Linda since childhood, even though she wasn't our destined mate.“Why couldn't she just hold on a little longer?" I growled through gritted teeth, my voice laced with irritation."Daniel, calm down," Jake urged in a soothing tone, its voice resonating in my head. "She made her choice, and we must respect it. Our mate will come when the time is right."I shook my head, stubborn and unwavering. "No! I don’t want anyone else but Linda, Linda is the only woman I’ll ever be able to love. I won't let her slip away."“But going against the alpha alone would be reckless," Jake warned, concerned for their safety. "Think about the consequences. We cou

Linda’s P.O.VAs I gradually regained consciousness, the world around me came into sharper focus. I discovered myself lying in a bed and a room that was unfamiliar to me. Questions swirled in my mind as I tried to piece together how I ended up here and what had transpired the previous night. I sat up, gently rubbing my temples to alleviate the lingering headache that plagued me.“Good morning, Linda," a voice resonated within me, catching me off guard.Surprised, I surveyed the room, searching for the source of the voice. Then it hit me – it was my wolf, the inner essence that had stirred when I fainted."Is that... is that really you?" I whispered, unsure of how to communicate with this newfound presence dwelling inside me."Yes, it's me, your wolf," the voice responded, emanating a mixture of strength and wisdom. "We are now connected, bound together by the mating ceremony. I am a part of you, just as you are a part of me."“Wow," I exclaimed, feeling a surge of excitement at the th
Mated To The Alpha But In love With His Beta Tension Unleashed
Bruno’s P.O.VAs I wearily entered my room, drained after a demanding day, a heavy weariness settled in my bones. The weight of alpha responsibilities took its toll, leaving me exhausted and on the verge of burnout. Letting out a deep sigh, I shed my clothes, each layer coming off with a sense of fatigue.Thoughts of the rogue intrusions we discussed during the meeting crossed my mind. "Is strengthening the security at the southern gate enough?" I wondered. There seemed to be an insider granting easy access to the rogues, someone with significant power. I would discuss this with the beta and gamma for a discreet investigation.Interrupted by soft chuckles from the library, anger flared within me. Who dared invade my private space? The library was off-limits except to me and the maids who occasionally cleaned it.Ignoring my exhaustion, I pushed open the library door with force. The room greeted me with a dim, hushed ambiance, highlighting the shelves filled with my beloved books, each
Mated To The Alpha But In love With His Beta The Confrontation
Linda’s P.O.VAs Bruno left the room, I felt frustrated and angry. He didn't give me a chance to explain or apologize. Camille, the head cook, stepped forward with a stern face and confronted one of the maids saying, “Why did you say such a thing about the Luna? it seems you have forgotten your place in this mansion.”“But I was only telling the truth, did you expect me to lie?” The maid retorted.Before Camille could respond, I interjected. “what did you tell the alpha?”Camille hesitated for a moment, sensing the tension. Finally, she reluctantly replied, “She only said some silly things, Luna. Please don’t pay heed to her.”Her response didn't satisfy me, so I asked again, my frustration mounting. "I won't repeat myself. What did you tell the alpha?" I demanded, feeling increasingly agitated.This time, the maid looked me in the eye defiantly and replied, "I simply told the alpha that no one had given you permission to enter his library."“And you also said that she has been snoopi

Bruno’s P.O.VAs I stood in my room, staring at the strange package on my bed, I felt a mix of curiosity and anger. Who would send me something like this? Who dared to enter my room without my knowledge? I approached the package and untied the ribbon that bound it. I pushed it to the ground, and a dead bird fell out, with a letter tied to its feet. I picked up the letter and read its contents. It had an inscription written in blood, demanding that I surrender my pack and step down, or face the same fate as the bird.“Sick bastard," I hissed through clenched teeth. Anger surged within me, mingling with a growing sense of unease. I searched the room, my eyes darting from corner to corner, seeking any sign of the intruder who dared invade my sanctuary.I immediately mind-linked my beta and gamma and asked them to meet me in my study. I knew I could rely on them for a discreet investigation.Carrying the parcel with the bird and letter, I entered my study where Daniel, my beta, and Marcel

I let out a scream as I stumbled backward, my body collapsing to the ground with trembling hands.A maid rushed in and stood in front of me trying to talk to me, but her voice sounded distant and muffled.Camille's urgent voice cut through the haze. "Call the security," she said, her words barely reaching my ears.Bruno and Marcel entered the kitchen, but their presence felt distant. They looked at the situation and gave instructions, but their words didn't quite register in my mind.A maid guided me back into my room and ran a cold bath for me.As the cold water washed over me, I slowly snapped out of the fog that had enveloped my mind. As I stepped out of the bathroom, entering my room, the maid asked, “Luna, do you want some breakfast? Can I get you something?" her voice filled with concern but my mind was still reeling from the sight of the dead maid. The image flashed thro

Linda’s p.o.vWhen I first opened my eyes, I tried remembering what had happened and why I was feeling this intense pain in my head.

Fear gripped me and all I could do was cry, I couldn’t move any part of my body as I felt very weak.I had tried mind-linking Bruno but I was too weak for it to pull through.

I wanted to squeeze the life out of her the same way she had planned on doing to Linda.How dare she try to harm my mate? How dare she!She held onto my arm, fighting, struggling, and kicking around for her life but I didn’t release my grip on her neck, instead, I tightened it and watched as her face began to turn pale due to lack of air.Marcel left my arm and ran towards Linda's bed. “Alpha, it’s the Luna. Her eyes are opened and she just made a sound,” he said.My rage subsided and I immediately released my grip from Ruby’s neck. In my anger, I had not seen that she had opened her eyes nor did I hear the sound she made.I rushed towards her and took her hand in mine. Peering intently at her.“Linda,
Mated To The Alpha But In love With His Beta The Threat
Bruno’s P.O.VA week had passed since Linda had fallen from the stairs. She had been brought back home from the pack’s clinic after Allen had said she and the baby were out of danger. But she wasn’t opening her eyes, she wasn’t coming back to me and it frustrated me to no end.Allen had said to give her time and to keep monitoring her progress but I was getting more and more worried with each passing day. What if she never returns?A sigh left my lips as I stood up from the chair I had been sitting close to her. I was about to mind-link Camille to come take care of her as I had a meeting to attend in another pack when I heard a knock on the door.“Who is it?” I asked, even though I could tell who it was.“It is Ruby, alpha,” she replied.“Come in,” I said, ushering her in.She pushed the door open and came in. She took long strides towards me and stopped beside me.“Is something wrong?” I asked calmly, wondering what her visit was about.A smile crossed her lips. “No, alpha. I just wa

Bruno’s P.O.VI bolted upright from the bed at Camille's words, my heart pounding with fear and dread. Linda had fallen down the stairs? The thought sent a chill down my spine, and without another word, I dashed out of the room, my mind racing with worry.When I reached the bottom of the stairs, I found Linda lying on the floor, with her eyes glazed over, and surrounded by a few maids. Blood stained the steps, and I felt a wave of nausea wash over me at the sight. I crouched down beside her and held her head in my arms."Linda!" I called out, rushing to her side. "Linda!”I tapped her face gently but she didn’t move an inch. I turned towards the maids, who looked confused and worried. Lifting her up, I mind-linked Allen to come to the mansion immediately. I headed to my bedroom and on getting there, I placed her on the bed. Slowly, I took off her blood-stained clothes and a gasp escaped my lips, as I saw dried blood on the thigh. Shutting my eyes tight, I prayed to the moon goddess t

Bruno’s P.O.VI watched as Linda threw the tray of food on the floor with her eyes shooting daggers at Ruby. I had not wanted to eat the food as I wasn’t hungry but I didn’t want Ruby to pester me so much and I didn’t want to be rude by sending her out of my bedroom.Linda stood in front of Ruby and sized her up and down with anger in her eyes. “Get out of my mate’s room you wench!” She yelled while pointing to the door.I stared at her in surprise wondering why she was calling Ruby a wench, they were as close as blood sisters the last time I checked. What changed? Or did she find out Ruby was the one who told me about her affair with Daniel?Ruby's eyes darted towards me, she stared at me as if waiting for me to counter Linda’s orders.“You can leave Ruby,” I told her and she looked at me in surprise.“But… but alpha, she shouldn’t be here,” she countered, her eyes beaming with malice.“Leave Ruby,” I said again, dismissing her with my hands.She bowed slightly and glared at Linda b

Why are you acting so shocked?”She swallowed visibly and let out an awkward laugh. “Ru..Ruby, I don’t think you understood my question. I think you are mistaken. I was asking if….”I interrupted her before she could complete her words. “I understood your question perfectly Linda. You asked for the truth and I told you nothing but the truth. It’s not my fault if you are too dumb to process it.”Before I could tell what was happening, a slap landed on my cheek and I stared at her in surprise, holding my cheek in anger.“How dare you speak to me this way? I am still your Luna and you would show me respect!” She thundered, her eyes reflecting her wolf.“I took you in when no one wanted to.

His sister, Emily opened the door with tears in her eyes.“Haven't my brother suffered enough for loving you?” Emily asked, her eyes filled with a mix of hate and anger.I stared at her in confusion, wondering what she was on about. “Em, what’s wrong? Did something happen? Where’s Daniel?”She wiped her tears. “All Daniel has ever done is to love you wholeheartedly and this is how you repay him? This is how you thank him for the love he showered on you even when your mate didn’t even want someone useless like you.”I gasped in shock, still confused. “Em, please tell me what’s wrong. I… I do not understand what you are trying to say.”“Your mighty mate sent his gamma and guards to come pick up Daniel a few hours ago,” she replied, her tears streaming down her face once more.“What?

It felt like a dream come true, one I had dreamt of for years.I woke up today intending to go to see my parents. It’s been a long time since I saw them and I missed them very much, I didn’t know how I was going to tell Bruno that because he has been very protective of me ever since I got pregnant.“Good morning Hazel,” Bruno said, pulling me close.“Hmmmn, morning,” I replied, wrapping my hands around him.He grunted, rolling off of the bed. “I need to leave soon. I have got a lot to do today.”I sat up straight, looking in his direction. “Oh alright.
