Scott takes the ring from Alpha Kelvin, which symbolizes the power and title of Alpha, indicating that today, he will officially become the Alpha of our Blue Amber Pack, before he swears in his young but powerful voice.
“I solemnly swear that I will protect and lead this pack with all my might and do everything in my power to assure the members of this pack a safe and comfortable life.”
If he has shifted and is about to take his position as the new Alpha, it means that he would have been able to find his mate.
Finishing his long speech about his duties, the elder turns towards the crowd with spread arms, “Members of the Blue Amber Pack, please bow down to your new Alpha.”
The crowd gasps in unison as the bond snaps into place, Scott clenching his jaw before he flashes the crowd another one of his gorgeous smiles. We all bow deeply, baring our necks in respect.
“Are you ready to tell us who your Luna is?” the elder asks, turning towards Scott and making my heart still in my chest.
Scott nods, his gaze meeting mine. I feel everyone's gaze on me, my heart racing in my chest as my nervousness expands in my chest.
A special connection seems to link Scott and me, which leaves me a little confused, because it is not my birthday today, and there are still months left until I will shift, so I shouldn't be able to feel the mate bond.
An invisible force like a wave brings me closer to Scott's spirit, and I feel happy about the connection, as it can only mean one thing: I am Scott's mate.
He holds our eye contact for a long moment before he lifts it, holding out his hand to someone in the back of the crowd. And not me.
My blood turns cold. Why does he ignore the connection between us?
Am I hallucinating?
“Hailey,” his deep baritone voice rumbles through the air, shattering my heart in a million pieces as I turn around to look at Hailey smiling back happily at him.
I can't believe how everything I just felt crumbles into nothingness.
My thoughts spiral as the crowd cheers in joy, and she lifts her long skirt to join her mate on the stage while my eyes well up with tears.
Hailey is a new member of our pack. She is popular among our male members because of her beauty, and it is not something that should be blamed or discussed.
But I have seen her other female followers treat girls who can't match with their group in a awful way. Hailey never does this with her own hands, but she watches the bullying with a playful expression.
And my disruption of their activities just made them hate me more.
I force down the urge to let emotions overwhelm me in front of everyone, breathing slowly to calm my racing heart.
I act as if nothing happened, forcing up a smile and clapping my hands as Hailey bumps into me.
“Oh, April. Sorry, I’m being so nervous that I get clumsy,” Hailey giggles in her high-pitched voice.
“Don’t worry,” I smile sadly, taking another step out of her way.
She tilts her head at me and I feel the soil tremble as Scott must have jumped down the stage to reach us.
“Don’t you want to congratulate me? I just got proclaimed your Luna!” She smiles mockingly, my heart twisting at the desperation I am feeling at this outrageous situation and his scent enveloping me.
“April, don’t act like this!” Scott reprimands me in an annoyed tone.
“Don’t ruin this special day for everyone.”
“Of course not,” I say, hating how my eyes well up with tears.
“Congratulations, Hailey.”
“Oh, please call me Luna!” she giggles again, making me feel even more humiliated.
“Congratulations, my Luna,” I say through gritted teeth, my voice shaking because of the sobs fighting their way up my throat.
Hailey smiles happily and passes me without even sparing me another glance.
Feeling paralyzed with shock, I watch Hailey reach Scott and greet him with a kiss. He takes her hand, and together they get back up onto the stage.
Under the pitiful looks of the people around me, I excuse myself and walk away.
I know exactly that this is highly disrespectful behavior and that I would have probably been punished for it by the new Alpha and Luna, but at this moment I couldn’t care less.
As soon as I’m far enough from the crowd, I start running, holding up the skirt of my long gown to prevent me from stumbling over it. I feel stupid as I made my mother buy it for this occasion, only to look good for him.
Reaching a small cage, I don’t care about how I would ruin the dress as I crawl into the narrow space.
I sit at the end of the cave, burying my head into my arms as I pull my legs closer and cry my heart out.
My heart hurts so much and I feel so incredibly stupid. I don’t even notice how the hours go by as my tears finally stop falling.
Wiping the tears from my cheeks, I take a deep breath and decide to rot in this small cave forever as I hear a giggle outside.
“Hailey?” I whisper to myself, and groan, really not wanting to find my crush making out with that stupid girl.
It is quite a secluded place out here, and I don’t know many people, besides my pathetic ass, who would come out here.
As soon as I’ve crawled out of the cave, I spot Hailey right away.
But she is alone.
I lift a brow and scurry after her, just to see her walking towards the pack’s borders.
“Hailey!” I shout, wanting to stop her. “Wait, it’s dangerous over there.”
Lifting my gown slightly, I run in her direction, looking around constantly to find someone from the border patrol.
‘Where are they?’ I ask myself as I pick up my speed to reach her.
“Hailey!” I call again, but she doesn’t seem to be able to hear me.
“Hailey, the pack’s territory ends there. Do not cross the border!”
She looks back at me from a distance but doesn't stop.
Just as I’m getting closer to her, I hear a rustling in the trees and I stop to lift my gaze, turning around to spot who it might be.
A scream resounds from the direction in which Hailey went and I turn my head panicky just to see a shadow in the corner of my eyes.
I don’t even get to react in time as I get tackled out of nowhere and hit my head as I fall onto the ground. With a groan, I try to get up, but my body gives out, and I get enveloped in darkness.

ScottI drive the truck and search for Hailey's body all night. I can't let my mate die like this.The headlights of our pack’s search team illuminate all the nearby roads and hills.But we find nothing.I am so angry but I have no place to vent. In the dim morning light, I return home and sit alone in my study.“This can’t be real,” I say to myself as I stare into the void, my hands crossed against my lips. “I must be dreaming.”Taking a sip from my glass filled with bourbon, I let the burning sensation stream from my throat into my body without getting myself to wake up.I close my eyes, taking a deep breath. “This is it. It is just a stupid nightmare, and I’ll wake up any moment.”Maybe there is another explanation to it, maybe it is all just a bad joke.A very bad one.Grabbing the glass with the amber liquid standing on my desk, I catapult it against the wall, making it shatter into thousands of pieces.I roar as my heart squeezes painfully, the pain over Hailey’s disappearance t

AprilFlashbackI lift part of my T-shirt, see the blue bruises on my skin, and groan in pain.In today's training session, I fought hard with a big guy, Taylor. He was muscular and almost twice my height, but I won. His jaw must have been dislocated.Now I’m hiding here, in a small warehouse, with my wound medicine to medicate myself. I’m very skilled at this, at least as long as no one comes to disturb me.After a few minutes, I’m finished and I grab the door handle to get out, but the door doesn’t not open.I tsk, cussing the pranks of those over-energetic boys. Such things are normal to happen in werewolf packs, so I could never complain to the Alpha or my mother about this.Taking a deep breath, I kick the door hard, wanting to break the door lock with brute force to get out. As I’m continuing to attack the door, I don't realize how the piled building materials in this small room are already shaking.One more kick and there is a loud bang. I get buried under several tons of mater

AprilThe low roaring of the engine wakes me softly.Opening my eyes, I recognize that I’m sitting in my mom’s truck, tucked in a warm blanket, about to leave the pack in which I grew up, fell in love and was betrayed by it.I push out a shaky breath just as we pass the statue of my father’s wolf, which was erected to honor my father’s sacrifice for the pack and his Alpha. Touching my chest, I press onto my skin above my heart as it twists painfully in my chest at seeing that it has been completely destroyed. As we pass it with the car, I sit up to look back at the pieces of it shattered on the floor, and my mother sighs sadly.“This was just mean,” she whispers as she has her eyes still set on the road before us. “And unnecessary. There was no need to drag him into this situation after what he did.”I blink repeatedly, looking up at her with a heartbroken expression. “I’m so sorry, Mom. Please forgive me.”If it wasn’t for me, she wouldn’t be banished.My mother shakes her head, shus

AprilI breathe heavily as it rings, and my heart sinks deeper and deeper into my stomach with every ring that resounds,He isn’t picking up.He hates you, remember?And he doesn’t care if you die.My mother fights hard, but soon enough she gets outnumbered, her stamina decreasing as they recharge between their attacks but not granting her the same opportunity.Her light brown slowly changes color, staining itself with her blood as they keep landing hits, sinking their fangs into her side and neck.“Mom!” Desperation ripples through me, and I try my best to push myself from the ground, only to slump back down. I claw onto the floor, clasping the wet soil in my fists as I clench my eyes closed.Even if my body keeps refusing to move as I want to, I can’t give up as she is all I have left. She has already given up her pack for me and I would never survive the thought that she lost her life because of me too.Even if I won’t be able to cry about it long enough.Clenching my teeth, I stan

Scott“I can’t believe you did this to April and her mother,” my father mumbles as I pace back and forth in front of him. “And I can’t believe you convinced me not to execute a death sentence for her. She killed my Luna, I should have executed them both,” I shout, growling as I try to keep my wolf from pushing forward. “All it took you was her mother to show up at your door. I wonder what her striking arguments were.” “Don’t vent your frustration on me, son,” my father growls, obviously offended. “There is nothing going on between Hazel and me, but April is like a daughter to me, and Hazel was my best friend’s mate. I know that you are grieving, but we still don’t know what happened and I’m still convinced that April has nothing to do with it.” I scoff, letting myself slump into my office chair. “How can you be so sure of this? We have Ana and Joey who witnessed them walk together to the spot where we found Hailey’s clothes and blood spilt on the ground. My wolf can’t feel Hailey an

AprilThe white light envelopes my mother, making me look at the scene unfolding in front of my eyes with wide eyes. I see the wounds on her body heal quickly, the life returning into her body as she recovers slowly. Happiness streams through me at the thought that she is regaining her senses and I won’t lose her. "Why hasn't she woken up yet?" I ask my wolf, getting her to react at my words with a comforting purr. A calming sensation she must be triggering in me streams through me, causing me to feel better already. "Don't worry, she just consumed too much energy, and she will wake up after a bit of sleep.""Do you know why we are a healing white wolf?" I ask my wolf. I‘m still confused about all the changes that are occurring around me, my heart squeezing in my chest as dread expands into my throat. She will surely know something as my power comes from her. Convinced that my wolf will be able to clear my confusion, I’m a bit disappointed at her answer."I think our ancestors mig

Scott My leg jumps nervously as I’m sitting in one of the cold chairs made of plastic which are affixed to the wall. The sterile hallway of the hospital is full of scurrying nurses, stalking doctors, people visiting with sorrowful expressions hidden behind forced smiles, and patients trying to get a few steps taken carefully as they spend too much time in bed. And still, it seems so lonely. Leaning my head back against the wall, I take a deep breath and close my eyes. My father is the strongest wolf I know, and due to that perception, I always imagined him to be indestructible. Even after Jax’s death, which he encountered while saving my father’s life, my heart still repudiated the thought that my father could have left us as well. It seemed so far-fetched to me as he was invincible for me. I suppose that I never lost the childish admiration for him that a son has for his father naturally when he is an important and strong figure in your life. “Alpha,” a calm voice disrupts my

ScottThe next morning I wake up feeling the worst.Between the pain radiating from my heart and the thoughts twirling in my mind, I didn’t get a second of sleep.Every time I closed my eyes, the images of Hailey’s blood splattered over the dirty floor of the forest and April continuing to lie to me flashed in front of my inner eye, making my heart squeeze and my blood boil.I’m sipping my coffee absentmindedly while staring into the void, contemplating about how I would need something stronger, as Liam barges into the kitchen. “Any news?” I ask him as he reaches me with hurried steps.He shakes his head, making my heart drop. “Not really. The search patrol didn’t find any of the two bodies but they collected everything they were able to find.”I grunt in disappointment, my thoughts swirling around the fact that I need the bodies to be sure that they are in fact dead and that they didn’t stage all of this with their accomplice to get away.They could even plan another attack on the p

April ‘Gotta love a jealous Alpha,’ my wolf giggles, making me groan internally. ‘He should just fuck off,’ I groan back, pulling my blanket closer as I snuggle back in. “I am having a headache, and he wanted to go fetch Amber for me to bring me a painkiller.” Sighing, I close my eyes again, wanting to blend out how he distorts his face in disgust. But it’s more difficult than I thought. “Why? Something the matter?” I ask him, pushing out an exhausted breath. “You could have asked one of the Omegas to bring you something,” he grumbles, stepping closer. Does he really want to reprimand me? “Sure,” I scoff, squinting my eyes at him. “Next time, I will ask one of the Omegas, who can’t wait to bring me a painkiller drenched in arsenic.” “Don’t be silly,” he retorts angrily, letting himself fall into the armchair Daisy was just sitting in a few seconds ago. “As if you were that important that they would risk a war between packs and be executed by an insignificant Alpha like Noah.”
My Doctor True Mate 50
April Opening my eyes, I find myself lying in an amazingly cozy bed. “Goddess, am I dead?” I whisper, and I doubt my own question even before I hear Daisy’s whimper as my mouth feels dry as hell. And I guess I would feel better if I were dead. No one would have to face the Moon Goddess with a dry mouth. “April,” Daisy whisper-squeals. “Oh, my Goddess, how are you feeling?” I groan, pressing my palm against my hammering head as I sit up. “Everything is alright. What happened?” “You fainted,” Beta Daniel says, and I lift my head to see him leaning against the wall. “It must have been too much for you. Returning to this pack, seeing Alpha Scott, and the wolf who attacked you. As soon as the threat was removed, your body must have given up.” Taking a deep breath, I close my eyes, letting myself fall back into the bed. “Could you ask Amber to bring me an analgesic, please? My head is killing me.” “Sure,” Beta Daniel loosens his crossed arms and leaves the bedroom to go lo

April Time slows down, my surroundings only moving in slow motion as I try to think about a way not to die. The screams around me get drowned out by the loud sound of the blood rushing through my ears, and I can recognize the warriors and Beta Daniel moving from the corner of my eyes. But they are too slow, and I can’t shift without risking endanger Uncle Kane. I take a deep breath, closing my eyes and cowering in the hopes to protect my vital points and survive as long as it takes for the warriors and Beta Danile to get the wolf off me. ‘And the Alpha,’ my wolf says, gritting her teeth as she is preparing for the impact as much as I am. I laugh bitterly, hoping the feeble protection shield she is fighting to get up, will at least fend off a few blows and shield my skin from his sharp fangs. ‘I guess he will rather join his pack member.’ Sighing sadly, I step as much away from Uncle Kane’s bed as I can manage before he can reach me to prevent the attack from accidentally involv
My Doctor True Mate 48
April I watch the warriors of my pack bring in my instruments after I had asked every one of Alpha Scott’s pack to leave the room in order to be able to work in peace. I had already received enough dirty looks just from the few people who had seen me since I entered the pack grounds, and I was tired of being observed like I was trying to kill one of their strongest warriors. As if I would travel hours and a shit load of miles to do something that stupid. But I guess I will always be their Luna’s murderer, so what can I even expect? Uncle Kane has still not answered me properly, continuing to gush about me being alive and me being a doctor. I still didn’t tell him that I was the miracle doctor who saved his and his colleagues' lives, and every time he asked about my mother, I just smiled, telling him about how we had been living happily and without any problems. “In a pretty small home on the grounds of another pack,” I explain to him as I set the syringe to draw another
My Doctor True Mate 47
April I chuckle, shaking my head as he puts on a shy smile. “I am going to do the check-up, Uncle Kane.”Moving my fingers towards the doctor, I gesture to him to hand over the patient’s file, and I clear my throat as he scurries over to give it to me with his head lowered. As if he was intruding… I like this kind of power. “Impossible,” Kane whispers, closing his eyes to take a deep breath. He must be exhausted, and for a moment, I am preoccupied with the thought that he stopped breathing, and I crane my neck to check him out. It looks like he isn’t breathing anymore, and panic expands in my chest, getting my heart to beat faster, but just as I hold out my hand to feel his pulse, he inhales a lot of air and reopens his eyes. I slump back into my seat as he turns his head towards me, smiling. “So, you are a doctor. I always knew that you were a very special one.” Redirecting his eyes to the ceiling, he sighs, “Really intelligent.” His voice is barely a whisper, and I look int
My Doctor True Mate 46
April Kane’s eyes widen as I step in behind the doctor who had once refused to treat me but acted so worried for his head warrior’s health condition. Gulping down my hatred to be able to focus on Kane, I take another step forward, triggering him to rub his eyes in shock. “April,” he repeats over and over again, getting a smile to appear on my face.And for the first time since I stepped over the pack borders, it is a sincere one. “Hey, Uncle Kane.” I walk around the bed to reach him, his big eyes following me as if he were seeing a ghost. “Oh, my Goddess. April, is this really you?” I know that he must have problems to really recognizing me as April, as I have grown quite a bit since he last saw me, but my heart sings that he got it right away. “Yes, Uncle Kane. What are you doing? What happened?” He stares up at me, his mouth open. With a groan, he tries to push himself up into a sitting position, making me react immediately. I put my hands on his shoulders, pushing him back
My Doctor True Mate 45
April I feel like I am trapped in a bad movie as I get escorted to Alpha Scott’s office. The pack house is just like I remember it. Luxurious but lovingly furnished as the touch of the former Luna, Scott’s mom and mate to former Alpha Kelvin, still present. I gulp down the memory of me and how I spent my time here in the long past days. Beta Daniel is walking a few steps before me, trying to chat leisurely with Alpha Scott while I concentrate on my breathing pattern, afraid that I will just stop breathing and collapse at one point. Arriving at the office, I perceive my surroundings as if I were trapped in an aquarium and everything around me is muffled by the water I am immersed in. My view blurs and refocuses as I watch Alpha Scott’s lips move, gesturing for me to go into the office. It’s only as I enter into the snobbishly styled room that I recognize that I am apparently stepping into the office alone, my heart halting in my chest as I turn around. I look at Beta Dani
My Doctor True Mate 44
April Our convoy slows down just as it passes the borders to the Blue Amber Pack, but my heartbeat increases inversely proportional nearly breaking out of my ribcage. I see the wolves staring at us from behind the trees, their hate for me crystal clear, even on their shifted faces. I guess that I can be thankful that I’m here to save the life of an important pack member as any of them must be asking themselves if it would be worth the risk to lose their position as a guard in their pack and attack us. Or even risk a war just to satisfy that itching desire to sink their claws into my throat. Daisy lays her hand on mine, squeezing it soothingly and making me jump out of my thoughts. “Are you okay?” she whispers, and I nod, fighting to keep back my tears. I hate the fact that the landscape, the people staring, and the buildings passing by my window don’t stir any other emotion in me than sadness and resentment. I used to love it here and I loved growing up in this pack. Man

April “Angel,” I pick up the phone, Alpha Noah looking up and separating the pen he was chewing on from his lips to look at me questioningly. “You wish,” Liam barks out a laugh, making me roll my eyes. “What do you want, Beta Liam?” I ask, trying to keep my voice from shaking and adjusting my tone in the middle of the phrase, addressing him with his correct title. We don’t want to trigger a war, do we? My wolf mewls in my head, and I pull at my shirt, suddenly feeling uncomfortable in my clothes, my white coat weighing on my shoulders. “Something bad must have happened for you to call me on my direct number.” I clear my throat as Beta Liam starts talking, and I shrug in the direction of Alpha Noah as he cranes his neck as if it would allow him to hear the conversation better this way. “We have a problem, you are totally right. A member of our pack, one of our head warriors, collapsed during training. And I’m just calling because my Alpha asked me to. If it were for me, I would
