ALEXIS' POV

I stretch with the rest of the girls as we warm up for our match. Our match isn't as official as the one in Redwood team. And neither is our field as greenery and aesthetic as theirs.

We only play for fun here in the slums of Redwood and our pitch is wide and sandy. But we never complain. We have grown to love it. It is what makes us who we are.

"I have a suggestion, guys?" Laila, a short pixie haired girl says. "What about we let our wolves out before the match start. That way, we can put ourselves in high spirit."

The rest of the girls squeal excitedly in support of Laila except me. Because I know that I can not be able to shift with the girls. Grandma Rivera has made me promise never to let the moment cause me to make the biggest mistake of my life.

The girls begin to run into the woods now, readying to shift into their wolve selves.

"Come on, Alex." Aurora pulls me along by the arm but I refuse to budge and I stand rooted to my spot.

"No. I...I can't." My face falls a

    ALEXIS' POVAt the end of the match, my team scores a 3-2 goal against Aurora's team. I admit that at first, I was a little afraid of the fact that I would be going against someone as good as Aurora. When it comes to football, Aurora and I are bulls horn against each other. I would say, my team winning today would be sheer luck. Aurora's speed and wits on the pitch can never be compared to mine.Or maybe I am good enough and it just just my imposter syndrome kicking in."See you in school tommorw, sissy." Aurora pulls me in a quick hug, her body smelling of sweat and sands now."Yea. Stay safe, okay?" I tell her and wave to the other girls. I feel a little jealous that they are all going the same way while I am the only one who is heading my way. Aurora blows me a final kiss and finally leaves with the girls. I turn my back against them and walk the path to my own house too. It is quite dark now but I do not fear. I have always walked this path in light and darkness and I am too used

    ALEXIS' POVI had already knew what would come with my acceptance of coach Ryder's offer. And yet, I had gone ahead to accept it.It was a once in a lifetime opportunity to be a part of the RedWood football team. Anyone would kill for that. Just as I am ready to risk my peace of mind for it.The boys absolutely spite me now. For the rest of the week, my life in school turned a mess. Even messier than the first time they used to bully me. Everyone else in school was more than shocked I was now a part of the school football team. And the boys team for that. Even I felt the yellow and white team Jersey I am now made to wear looks quite awkward on me. Like it didn't fit me.Because I never belonged here in the first place.Donovan too wouldn't spare me a glance. This time, I know we are completely done. First, I hurt his pride by disgracing him on the pitch and now, I am now a part of his team.He would think I am still trying to challenge him. I wish he knows how wrong he is. I wish he k

    DONOVAN'S POV As coach briefs us about the upcoming nationals, I find myself getting distracted by Alexis who is listening to him speak with rapt attention and doesn't take notice of me. She is in her yellow jersey and has her white long hairs plaited in two French braids like she does ever since she started playing with the team. There is no denying how cute and innocent she looks whenever she is in that hairstyle. I still don't understand why I cannot despise her for the events of the past week. How she had humiliated me. An Alpha. I am supposed to punish her. Not admire her."And as always, the Ivory pack will be partaking in the competition. The Coral pack has been banned from this year's tournament due to issues that are of no concern to us. Now, that leaves us to the toughest and strongest elephant of them all. The Ivory pack."Coach continues to talk and once again, my thoughts begin to drift elsewhere. To last week when I had sex with Lori. It was quite crazy that I didn't r

    ALEXIS POVIt is 9pm now and Marie’s is closed for the day. And as always, I do not spare an extra minute, and begin my journey home. I have had a long tiring day, just like every other day before this and right now, what I need to do so badly, is have a nice warm Granda Rivera’s meal and a long peaceful night sleep on my fateful old rickety bed.And pray that Lori gets better and I don't face expulsion tomorrow. In a few minutes, I am in my neighborhood fortress. That old slum neighborhood that housed all the low-class werewolves in Redwood. It is a place where criminals, drug addicts and prostitutes lurk around in every corner, their eyes prying on you. A place I have grown to love. I was born here, Grandma Rivera says. My mother had gotten pregnant for a random stranger during a one-night stand and when mother gave birth to me, she abandoned me at Grandma Rivera’s doorstep a few weeks later and ran away to a place where no one ever got to hear from her again. Whatever had happened

    ALEXIS POVI gently push the door of our small old wooden house open and step in, shutting the decades old door behind me. I give a heavy heave with closed eyes.Home. I am finally home, greeted by the homey smell of baked brownies and freshly cleaned room. And need I mention Grandma Rivera sitting on her old rocky chair, knitting something...a tablecloth, I guess."Alexis, honey." She looks at me as I walk in, a good natured smile on her slightly wrinkled face. "You’re back."I move to her and place a kiss on both of her cheeks."Yes, Grandma Rivera.’‘How did your day go?’ She resumes knitting again, sparing me only a glance."Tiring," I drop my bag on the only and old cushion in our living room. "Hectic," I begin to walk towards the kitchen. "And just the same as every other day. Nothing special about it."The thought of telling her what transpired between me and Lori came to me but I quickly shove it away. I wouldn’t want to give the woman any reason to worry. She heart is already

    ALEXIS POVThe next few days in school were like one hell of a week for me. Everyone were keep a long distance with me, while whispering and pointing accusing fingers at me, behind my back. Although it was a good thing that Lori and her friends avoided me for the rest of the week, I couldn't help but feel bad over her bandaged nose which I had heard had broken from the impact of my fist on her face. Although it was quite funny seeing her a little disfigured, I strained myself a couple of times from laughing whenever she would stare at me with so much hate under her heavily bandaged nose. One thing that killed me most was the fact that Damien began to stare at me with so much distaste and irritation, like I was the filthiest thing he had ever come across. It did hurt me more than ever. But asides that, I had been serving my detention pretty well as the Principal had shown me mercy this time around, even when it was her daughter I had assaulted. Next time, she had warned, I would be

    ALEXIS' POVMy table is literally the worst mess. It has been a few days ago since Mrs Theodora had given us the group project and I had been so busy with work at Macy's to even as little as get started on the assignment. Now, it is just two days away to submission and I have not had even a paragraph of the essay done. And asking my project partner to come help me is something I know I would never do. Not even in the next life. He literally hates me now and I wouldn't like to go any closer to provoke him. Plus, he didn't even try to have the empathy to ask me about the project. He had literally abandoned the entire thing on my head. And now, I am almost choking on it. I cringe visibly as my eyes take in the clutters on my desk. There are stationary and pieces of paper lying everywhere. There is also a half eaten plate of caeser salad on the table and a half drunk mug of coffee that has spilled a little on the surface of my desk. I delegate inwardly between cleaning my space or ignor

    ALEXIS' POVI find it difficult to give my complete attention and concentrate on the note I am making with the way I can feel Donovan's gaze on me, piercing down the nape of my neck and how close we are sitting now. He is currently seated on the chair I was on a few minutes ago while I have moved my notebooks and stationary with me to the bed where I am now working from, lying on my stomach. It is annoying how since he has gotten here all he has done is stay seated majestically like an Alpha that he is while watching me do the entire work all by myself without raising as little as a finger to help.And to think the bloody liar insisted just a while ago that he is here because it is his responsibility to help as my project partner. And what was that when he also mentioned about how I am going to be his luna too?Does he enjoy watching me get confused over his true intentions towards me?"If all else perished, and he remained, I should still continue to be; and if all else remained, a

    ALEXIS' POVFIVE YEARS LATERI sit in the garden, watching from a distance as Randall plays with the butterflies, jumping and throwing himself to the grass excitedly. His pure white furs gleam beautifully under the sunlight. As I watch him play, I rub a hand softly over the large bulge on my belly. I am in my third trimester of pregnancy and I am more than eager to see the second product of me and Donovan's love. With my eyes still on my son playing in the field, I get a flashback of Randall and I smile at his memory. The loyal friend who had lost his life trying to protect his best friend. Trying to protect the girl he loved and who never reciprocated his affection. Sometimes, I hate that life was unfair to him and he had gotten what he did not deserve. Other times like now, I imagine him enjoying eternal bliss in paradise like he deserves. At least, he never has to experience the chaos of this world ever again. Donovan and I had chosen to name our son after him to honor him and pre

The crowd goes crazy, whistling and applauding and we straighten our frame again. There is a big smile on my face as I watch everyone celebrate the coronation of Donovan and I. Donovan gently brings me closer to his body and plants a small kiss on my lips. The crowd goes wild again and I laugh and blush at the same time. I wrap my arms around him in a hug, trying my best not to shed tears of joy. If anyone had told me this day would be mine again, I would have called them a liar. But I guess the gods always have their own plans. One of which is my fate to become Donovan's Luna and rule beside him forever. "Congratulations, my queen." Luna Genevieve walks up to me, a broad congratulatory smile on her

    ALEXIS' POVMy eyes flicker open as I awake and my eyes observe my surroundings as soon as my eyes are properly opened. The room is large and looks familiar with the physician's ward at Redwood castle. I do not get up and instead, I remain in my lying position on the bed. I do not even think about where I am or how I got here. My mind is completely blank save for the image of a dead Donovan replaying over and over again in my head. I feel dead and emotionless without Donovan by my side. If life was a fairytale story and I had one wish, I would wish that life gives us a second chance and my mate be brought back to me alive. The door gently creaks open and a pair of footsteps walk into the room. I lift my eyes uninteresting to catch a glimpse of whoever is walking in and my entire being pauses as Donovan's face smiles back me. He is dressed in his regalia and he has a small tray of tea and herbs in his grips. His messy hair is styled in a different style, slightly wavy and breathtakin

    ALEXIS' POVThe war stops and everyone pauses as they see me walk out of the castle, carrying Donovan and Randall's body on my back. The white mares of my wolf form are smeared with their blood but I did not care. There is nothing I care about anymore. I get on my knees and drop their bodies gently beside me on the ground before shifting back to my human form. The men remain in stiled silence at the sight before them. "Brother! Brother!" Rachel screams in horror and hurries to her brother's body, flinging herself to the ground beside him. She takes his lifeless body into her arm and shakes him vigorously in a lame attempt to wake him up."Randall! Randall, please wake up!" She begins to cry now. I only watch her do so. I cannot cry anymore. I cannot feel anymore. I am too broken, too dead inside to show any emotions anymore. In fact, I feel so empty and dead inside that I could pass on for a walking dead. I died the very moment Donovan died too. "What did they do to you?! What hav

    ALEXIS' POVVera is one person who keeps coming up with a lot of surprises everyday. Her air of mystique and creepy personality and the fact that she is hundreds of years old in such a youthful body. Not to forget that she is the one whom the gods had allegedly revealed the prophecy of the white wolf to. And now, it amazes me to find out that she is a healer wolf too. How much cooler can a person be?"For how long have you been pregnant?" She asks me as she tends to my almost fading wound. The crazy pain I had felt on my shoulder is no longer there. Only a tad little bit of the pain is left, all thanks to Vera. Even the wound is barely even there anymore. "Almost a month now." I answer her, refusing to meet with her piercing creepy blue eyes."Were you a maiden when the Alpha marked you?"Her question causes me to get a little uncomfortable and I shift a little. "Yes." I answer regardless. "Then, the child must be his." She says in a quieter tone, more to herself than to me. "I am

    DONOVAN'S POV"Do you think it's wiser to go in now and attack when they are unguarded or would you rather we keep waiting till they're alerted?" Vera asks. She is standing behind me, as tall and elegant as always and with a sword held in her hand. I glance at our troop. Our armies of wolves are gathered beside us, waiting eagerly for my command to attack. Looking back at Vera again, I wonder for the hundredth time why she had agreed to come with me to this rebellious quest, knowing fully well that I could die and my father would kill her for letting that happen. She notices my stare and looks at me with a raised brow."I have mentioned this many times since yesterday but I am going to go ahead and mention this again. I am not doing this for your mate, dear Alpha. I know that you are hard headed and would go ahead to get her yourself anyway. I wouldn't sit back and let you kill yourself. The least I can do is protect your stubborn ass."A small smile subconsciously plays on my lips
