Kayla’s POV“But sir,” I said to him. “I haven’t done anything wrong to him. I’ve been very…”“I don’t care about what you’ve done or haven’t done, when I say you aren’t good for my boy I know you aren’t good and that’s that.”“But you don’t know me!” I retorted. He was judging me without even meeting me even when he was the terrible one who had cut my mothers life short.“I don’t want to know you!” He yelled back. “You think I give a shit about every girl I meet in this pack? I have seen people come and go and you are not even worth a grain of salt to them. You are not fit to be a Luna. You have been sullied.”I was taken aback by those words. They were the same words being used by the market people in the pack. Was he the one who had spread the rumor or he was talking based on what he had heard.“Just because I am pregnant does not mean that I have been sullied,” I said through gritted teeth. Now I was getting on the defensive. He dared not call me that in this place. Not in my hous
Kayla’s POV“Excuse me?!” I yelled in shock. “Are you being serious?”“I’m as serious as they come,” he smiled. “Very simple right? And you get all these benefits just for rejecting him. Oh and you have to leave for another pack.”“No!” I yelled.“No what?” He said with raised brows.“No, I refuse to be swayed by your words. I will not do it.”He scoffed at my confidence and looked me in the eyes.“My son arranged a date for your mating ceremony with him, did you know that?”I did. I had seen the mail and ignored it for the bad eyes I was getting from the people were too much.“Now if you don’t reject him, he will go ahead to get mated with you which I do not want to happen. Now be a good girl and reject him for me or your family gets it.”“They won’t,” I said with a smile. I had confidence in myself and Zack. This man was not going to do anything to someone who was willing to risk everything to be a Luna. If I was a Luna I would have my revenge against him. He would regret what he ha
Kayla’s POV“Who I choose to be with should not be up for a debate.” I said with a stern tone. “You all should be on my side and should help me fight the threats I’m facing. It’s not that hard.”I could not believe my own family would not be of help to me.“K, sweetie, you know I’d love to be your friend and confidant in this but you have to understand that the former alpha used to be an alpha for a reason. You are going up against a powerful wolf. You will lose.”I could not believe Willow at this point.“You’re supposed to have my back on this one!” I yelled to the table.“For the moon's sake will you stop yelling and just listen to us!” The old man on the table yelled, using a hand to rub around his temple like he was frustrated. “Listen, as much as I would really like to be on your side, I want you to know that your mother died at the order of that man. He killed your mother. My wife. “He didn’t even blink when she was being killed. Now why would you think you can go up against h
Kayla’s POVEven when I had been approached by the old Alpha to leave his son, I had not been disrespected like this. Everything I had done had not been to piss anyone off. I just wanted to be with the man I loved and suddenly I was stepping on toes.“With all due respect sir,” I said with my breathing increasing gradually as I tried to hold myself back from doing anything harsh. “But I won’t leave the alpha for anyone. It’s very clear the alpha likes me.”“He doesn’t know what he likes because you have brainwashed him!” The man yelled in anger.“If brainwashing people with love gets you loved then I think that is how it should be,” my answer had him reeling backwards in shock. He was mad at me. “Fiona should be having him all to herself if she was loved the way I am loved by the alpha. Instead I’m having all of you come one after the other to tell me to back off. “How do you think the alpha would react when he knows respectable men like you are bribing me with things that are petty.
Zach’s POVI looked at the man before me and the elders who were behind him as I had the urge to reject his request.He was my father. I had to be careful. With a nod, I accepted as we walked away from the elders and took a stroll to the edge of the garden when we looked at the large mountains in the distance.“What are you doing?” He asked. “This isn’t you. This is madness I tell you. You can’t keep acting out in this manner. Those are elders.”“Didn’t you see them coming after me like a pack of wolves after prey?” I called the old man’s attention to it. “Dad, I tried my best to be calm but they are getting on my nerves.”“How about you listen to what they want you to do?” The man asked. “They just want what is best for the pack. You don’t need to be aggressive.”Now I knew he was not going to be on my side.“I’m done with this conversation,” I said with a sigh as I started for the castle. It was time to cool off.I was going to spar with a guard.When I got to the castle, I pointed
Zach’s POV“Your father chooses to speak with you,” she muttered meekly.I nodded before shoving the robot back to give me some space.With each blow I delivered, the robot staggered, its mechanical form showing signs of strain. My wolf strength proved to be an overwhelming force, granting me an advantage over the relentless automaton. The clash between my supernatural might and the cold, calculating precision of the robot created a spectacle of power and resilience.I could see the scientists cheering for their robot but it was still not enough to make it win.Though thoughts of Kayla’s acceptance continued to linger, the battle became too intense to even think anymore. Each strike served as a metaphorical blow against the doubts that plagued my mind. The robot, as I could see in my mind was a representation of the external challenges I was facing.I immediately saw the robot as the elders who were coming after me which had me groaning as I decided to unleash my supernatural strengt
Mateo’s POVI was confused when the door opened up and it was the woman I had longed to see for weeks standing before me.This was a surprising turn of events.The alpha could not make it so he had told me to meet with his about-to-be mate.“Hi,” I smiled at her while drinking in her body. She was just as beautiful as I had seen her before.Her beautiful eyes held so many secrets as before I was sure I had fallen in love again while looking at her.How was someone so beautiful yet so intrinsically different from the rest of the women around the pack?There was something about her that I found interesting. I wanted her to be mine even when it seemed like she would say no.Besides, what was she doing in the future Luna's house?”“You’re that lady I met at the gaming center,” I smiled as she nodded.“And you’re the man I met there,” she said with a chuckle. I nodded while shaking her hand. I could feel how silky and smooth her hand was. It was oddly comfortable to hold her.An awkward s
Mateo’s POVI knew why the old men didn’t like her. She was not the occasional snub I saw around the pack who were preparing themselves to be Luna's. This one was different.She smiled more and she had a wonderful personality. Maybe it had to do with her upbringing. I didn’t know her history but she seemed like a very nice person. I was sure her family was as good as she was.Zach’s fiancée was a total disaster. All she wanted was to live in the latest moment and not care about how her workers were treated.She was terrible to those around her. I had seen how she treated others. That was not how to treat anybody. She was supposed to be a human being and not a terrible jerk, but that was not how she treated others.I didn’t like Fiona one bit. I had interacted with her a couple of times but she had eyes only for Zach. At the time I had wanted to complain to him about her character, I had held myself due to how he was having sex with her on a regular basis. Since I didn’t have a partn
