Chapter 53 We were both engulfed in silence. As his gaze waited for an answer, I could feel my heart breaking. I lowered my gaze and diverted his gaze. Maybe it's also my responsibility that he suspects me like this. Maybe it's also my fault that he doesn't believe me right away. But... I never expected it to turn out this way."I didn't know it was Beta Miguel's room, Alpha Greyson," I admitted bluntly. I could hear him sigh with relief."Then, what are you doing there?" he inquired. My jaw clenched. He grabbed both of my hands, but I managed to dodge him. His gaze was fixed on mine."I... went to Mrs. Clea's office to visit her. I Just sneaked out so the only choice I had was to hide from you. I know you won't let me go to Mrs. Clea's office because I was alone, so I was able to do it," I answered coldly."Why do you have to go there by yourself? You can be accompanied by the guards.""And I don't like it, Alpha Greyson; I'm used to being alone," I said, my tone chilly. "I'm going
Chapter 54 There will be no more squandered time. When I entered the library, I quickly took out the book that Mrs. Clea had taken from the North Pack. I must be prepared. I have to be prepared for anything. I need to get ahead of Beta Miguel before he can carry out his evil plan.As my fingers grabbed the old book cover, I gazed at the ring on my finger. As I recall our wedding day, I bite my bottom lip. Alpha Greyson and I didn't get off to a good start, so I'll make sure everything works out in the end.The title of the book was the first thing that caught my attention when I opened it. The Sacred List of North Pack. I'm not sure why I'm so nervous when I open the book. The book's vintage was clear because practically every page was torn open, so I was cautious. The names of renowned people who became the Alpha of the North Pack are included on each page.Many Alphas have been through the North Pack, and they are all well-known and have made significant contributions to the North
Chapter 55This isn't possible... no... Is this a dream? Am I having nightmares? As Dylan's son, Beta Miguel's real name is Phillip, and... his... mate is... Shena? My long-lost friend? My dearest friend! My friend I've been looking for a long time!My palm trembled when I held my friend's portrait. I can tell she's changed a lot in this picture. She looks stunning. She looks so perfect. She smiles as if everything is fine as if everything will be all right in the end. It was like the last time I saw her smile before we parted ways. As I glanced at the portrait of my good friend, tears streamed down my cheeks... It's almost like having a genuine sister.Is this really true?I was staring at the portrait when something fell from behind it. I stopped after picking up a piece of paper. I read the paper.Philip,How are you doing? We haven't seen each other in ages. I will turn eighteen a month from now and I can't hide my excitement because I know when I reach the right age, I know you a
Chapter 56When Alpha Greyson came up and silently joined Elder Mateo, my heart skipped a beat. I'm unable to speak. What's happening? Mrs. Clea spread the rumors about me? My chest constricted. Mrs. Clea can't do that! I know this is a setup!I instantly sprang up, but Kylie and Rose approached me and said, "Luna Amara, you need to rest. You can't get up yet," Kylie said, I shook my head. "I need to go out," I insisted, standing up and hastily leaving the room. The guards were startled when I left the room, but they couldn't stop me when I ran away to the housekeeper's hall."You also have the audacity to spread false accusations against Queen Luna, Mrs. Clea," Elder Mateo stated harshly as Mrs. Clea knelt in front of them all. Behind her were two guards aiming long swords at her. My knees shook at the sight. It's like ripping my heart open."That's not true! I was not the one who spread the false accusations against Luna Amara!" exclaimed Mrs. Clea. I turned to Alpha Greyson, who wa
Chapter 57 I didn't say anything to Alpha Greyson all day, despite his attempts to approach me. I can't talk to him. Every time I see him, my chest tightens and becomes heavier. I love him and am terrified that I may destroy myself because of my feelings for him. With each passing hour, my understanding of Alpha Greyson's cause grew wider and I was afraid of it.I'm scared I'll forgive him too quickly and ignore Mrs. Clea's plight. According to Alpha Greyson's earlier statement, he only wished to shield me from people who would think negatively of me. I know that the entire kingdom is important to him, and his subjects are wary of our future children. I know everything that is important to him. Also... This is not his only problem.We must not lose sight of the fact that we still have a problem with Dylan... I'm sure even Alpha Greyson is unsure of what to do initially. That is why I will save Mrs. Clea in my own unique way. I will not allow all of Beta Miguel's terrible schemes to b
Chapter 58 When I returned to the room, Alpha Greyson was seated on the couch, appearing as if he was expecting my return. We both exchanged glances. His broad eyes were drawn to me right away. I can't stop crying. Everything that is going on is causing me great pain. Everything I enjoy in life seems to be slipping away from me.When he spotted my tears, he stood up and came over to me. He drew me in for a bear hug. When he locked me in his chest, I burst into tears. He stroked my back and kissed the top of my head as I sobbed against his chest."W-Why is this happening to me? At first, it was my father... then Shena... then Mrs. Vikki... and now it's Mrs. Clea!" my voice trembled while speaking, and I could feel my heart breaking and my tears not stopping all night."Shh... please... Stop crying..." Alpha Greyson softly whispered against my ear. I hugged him tightly because I felt like I had no strength left and he would be my only support. Alpha Greyson accompanied me all night as
Chapter 59 Memories of when my biological father was still living returned to me. Back when I was still an Evans. I was the Rema Kingdom's princess. Prince Henry's only daughter, the Alpha King's only niece, I was Princess Harper Evans. Everything was easy back then. Prince Henry was an excellent father. He always smiles and sings me my favorite song before I go to bed. He often told me how much he loved my mother, but she died shortly after giving birth to me.I remembered playing with my cousin all the time. He was the Alpha King's son and the Crown Prince of the Rema Kingdom. He is nearly the same age as Alpha Greyson and a few years older than me, so he considers me his younger sister. I had no idea at the moment that I would be separated from my biological family. And I had no idea that the day would come when I would meet an Alpha King named Greyson Ruiz. And I also did not expect my intense love for him.But as time and seasons pass, I gradually realize that love is not always
Chapter 60 As Alpha Greyson informed me all that had transpired, my heart broke even more."After the Rogues attacked the South White Pack, I began investigating the people around me because it was unusual for Rogues to attack the pack without the guards noticing them, so from that event, I know that someone is betraying me, but my attention is diverted when you come along. I found my mate, and it was what the entire kingdom has been wishing for since I sat on my throne, but everyone suspects you as the Rema Kingdom's spy because of your features. I... I had the same thought... I had no idea you could be Princess Harper of the Rema Kingdom, which I had saved years ago. I only recently discovered that you are Princess Harper after having investigated and discovered that you have amnesia. I chose to keep it that way, but Dylan... returned and attempted to murder you. That's when I recognized something was wrong with Beta Miguel..." he played with my fingers while telling me everything
Epilogue I found her in the town of Tyreese. Miguel helped me in locating her. I still don't totally trust Miguel, but I need his knowledge at this point. The officials assumed Miguel was dead, so he remained dead for everyone. I'm the only one who knows he's alive, and he's discreetly helping me in finding Amara. According to his narrative, a human couple took her there and treated her as if she were their own daughter. I was relieved to learn that she was still alive. I had almost given up hope for over two years, but when I found out she was still alive, I couldn't help but meet her immediately and clasp her in my arms. But my sense of hope was dashed when Miguel revealed more facts about her. "While investigating her traces... I discovered that the human couple had taken her to the hospital for humans, so I went there to inquire about Amara's medical information and found that... she couldn't remember anything from her past," Miguel continued, making me stand up in irritation.
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 10) But things became much more complicated when Elder Mateo accused Mrs. Clea of spreading the accusations against Amara. It greatly affects Amara. Mrs. Clea is her friend; therefore, I understand her emotions."What should we do, your Majesty?" Elder Raymond worriedly questioned as I considered the plan."Everyone will believe you're on the wrong side if you try to protect Mrs. Clea. They could use this as an excuse to dethrone you! Perhaps we should just let it all go and wait for the appropriate moment to strike!" Elder Raymond proposed. My jaw clenched."I can't let Amara... get into this," I replied quietly. If I take it any longer, Amara will get angrier with me. Damn it!"But..." I sprang up and prepared to respond before he could speak. I went downstairs in stealth to see Mrs. Clea. As I saw them torment Mrs. Clea, I couldn't help but feel enraged. I just stopped when Miguel spoke."What are we going to do if she doesn't confess?" Miguel asked Mateo."Tha
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 9)I focused on finding Dylan. I'm not going to let him hurt Amara again. I'm not going to let him touch Amara again. I will go to whatever length to remove him from this world. But every time I fail to find him, I am filled with rage and restraint."Someone is betraying you, your Majesty," Elder Raymond warned me when I saw the survivor of the troops. I sent a group to look for Dylan, but they failed like any other squad. It seemed as if someone was watching our movements and calculating our intentions before we could attack. That's when I realized something wasn't right. I knew something was wrong the moment Prince Henry died. I was so preoccupied with Amara these days that I forgot to focus on that part."I know," I grumbled. Elder Raymond fixed his gaze on me."And do you know who that is?" he wondered. My jaw clenched. I already feel about the Elders, but I'm not sure who I'm thinking of. And the thought of his becoming a traitor enraged me.But despite the pr
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 8) I convinced myself that I felt all of this for Amara because she was what the Moon Goddess desired for me. Because if I don't, I might fall into a trap. I don't know her. I knew nothing about her and couldn't believe the Moon Goddess had chosen her to be my mate. What if Miguel really is right and she is Rema's spy? That's why, even though my emotions keep hammering inside me, I'm doing everything I can to put up a barrier between us. It was like a protective mechanism. I don't want her to cause me any more misery than I already have.That's why when she told me that she loved me before our wedding day, I couldn't deny that I almost believed her. What if this is really her plan to make me fall for her and then hurt me? That bothers me. I don't want that. That's why I kept my distance from her. But before the ceremony of our wedding, Miguel reported something to me."There's a chance she's Princess Harper, your Majesty," he said. I clenched my teeth. Really? Is
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 7)"Her name is Amara Brooks, and she is an orphan from the Western Regions. She is not a member of any packs, and... There's not much information about her," Miguel informed me. I stared at that girl's documents, in her photo, and the more I stared at her picture, the more I noticed resembles between her and the Princess of Rema Kingdom."I want you to investigate further," I said, and Miguel quickly nodded and left my office. If she is the Princess of Rema Kingdom, why couldn't she mention anything about me? Her eyes are screaming with indifference, which means she doesn't remember me or anything. Or maybe I was wrong? Maybe I was just thinking too much?But, if she is the Princess, why couldn't I find her while she was just in the Western Regions?I took a deep breath and everything was decided. I couldn't wait any longer for Miguel's investigation to be completed. I want to get to know her right away. So, I appointed her as my personal servant. If she is not ne
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 6)"We need to find your mate now, your Majesty, to reassure our people," Elder Mateo remarked as we sat in this conference room for our meeting. I've had enough of our present issue for quite some time. We just ended our kingdom meeting and are now coming down to do this. The topic about my mate."I told you; I couldn't feel anything or anyone inside the palace, or even the Kingdom," I grumbled."Then, your Majesty, we must throw a party in the palace and invite every woman living inside or outside our lands to find your mate," Elder Samuel advised. I clenched my teeth. That's how the meeting concluded. I was opposed to us throwing a party, but they thought it was a wonderful idea.I'm not very interested in finding a mate. I was preoccupied with being the Alpha King. And I was busy searching for someone...When I heard a knock on my office door, it brought my thoughts to a halt."Come in," I invited. Miguel walked into my office. I locked my gaze on him. I'd noti
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 5) It's not the time to slack off. The Princess has gone missing, and I can't even find her scent! The Rogues' attack killed the couple I had asked to watch after her. After the attack, the Rogues fled, and now I can't find Princess Harper!"We can't find her scent, your Highness; perhaps she's left the North Snow lands," Miguel stated to me. I clenched my hand and gritted my jaw. This is not a good sign. The Princess has been missing for two days."Then searched for her outside the lands!" I grumbled."But... your father will notice us—""I don't fucking care! Just find her!" I yelled angrily. Miguel stopped speaking and quickly obeyed my orders. I gritted my teeth as I stared at my wine flute. As time went on, my anger toward Dylan grew stronger. I don't care why he does all of this. All I want is to kill him and put an end to his craziness.Just like Miguel said, my father immediately noticed the entry and exit of my men."What have you been up to, Greyson? Som
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 4) I prepared my men to find Rema's princess. It's a covert mission. I didn't tell the Rema Kingdom about the reason behind my actions. I also know that the people of Rema may be skeptical of our actions because they are beginning to despise us as a result of the war between the kingdoms. That is why I need to do this in private.Miguel accompanied me as we strolled through the forest. It was strongly snowing. Miguel and my men have both transformed into wolves. Miguel is older than I am, thus he can already turn into a wolf. I clenched my teeth as I recalled my father's words. Even without my wolf, I know I can do it. But I'm sure it will be difficult for me however, I am confident in my sword skills, but I am also aware that our opponents are stronger, especially in wolf form.Nevertheless, I am still unable to turn into my wolf. I am still unable to awaken it. I just know I'm far too young for it."Is this the right way?" Miguel said over our mind link. I gave
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 3) As the Rema rogues thrashed me with a steel bar, pain radiated throughout my entire body. Their nasty chuckles could be heard. As one of them burned the skin on my back, I screamed in pain. I clenched my teeth and balled my fist in an attempt to bear the pain. When I closed my eyes, an image of a girl went into my head. Those emerald eyes…"Sun meets the ocean... ocean meets the sun... stars scatter across the midnight sky..." that sweet and calming voice. Everything is fresh in my mind now. Those torturous nights were over. Someone saw me after they dropped me somewhere. It was that girl…I rapidly arose from my supine position. As I gazed around, sweat beads dripped down my brow. My heart was pounding in my chest. I was having a nightmare. I gulped hard and realized I was in a nipa hut. When I felt something fall off my body, I looked down. The herbal that covered my body had fallen off. Someone... cleaned me up. Herbs and bandages were used to hide the injur
