After finally convincing her father to give her a year of freedom before she takes on the alpha position, her father allows her to celebrate in a club with her best friend, Dex. With him nowhere to be found and a persistent bloke named Ryker sniffing around her ass, the last man on earth she'd expected to save her was Alpha Kaden Kyson, whom her father loathes with every drop of his blood. She wakes up in Kaden's bed and instantly realizes she made her biggest mistake. She rejects him, only to go home finding his mark on her neck, leaving her in shock, about to beg her father on her knees when he says the last thing she expected of him. As it turns out, her father holds very strong principles on the mate bond. To him, it's the most precious, sacred bond to a wolf and one must not break it. So, he breaks his longest-time rivalry with Alpha Kaden for sake of his daughter, and arranges an alliance between the packs through marriage. Eloise is relieved of her father's decisions and gives the bond a chance. All seems to be going well, when on one fateful day, she announces her pregnancy to her father first out of excitement. But before she got to tell Kaden, pictures of her naked with another man flooded the news, bringing shame to her family and most of all, breaking her father's trust. The marriage is called off, and he announces her unfit to rule the pack and she never will. What breaks Eloise's heart even more is that her father starts beating her. Kaden refuses to see her or answer her calls. Desperate, she seeks Dex who helps her escape her father undetected, chasing that sliver of hope for new beginnings.

“I don’t want to be Alpha.”
There. I said it. My father freezes instantly, his one hand up in mid-air as he had been keeping me up to teach me all about the basics and whatnot on becoming his pack’s Alpha. “I beg your pardon?” He raises an eyebrow. “For the last time, Dad. Can’t I enjoy my youth far away from here before you hand me over the title?” I sigh, sitting down on his fancy leather couch. I folded my arms across my chest. “I want to travel, see the world, maybe even go to university. Dad, you know I always wanted to be a teacher.” I hear Dad sigh, heavy footsteps coming to me before the couch dips as he takes a seat beside me. “I know that. You told me a thousand times.” He chuckles. I pout. “But we’re talking about the pack.” He says. “Of course. More important than your own daughter.” I mumble. I know I was being a bitch. Yet, sometimes I just wanted my father to listen. My father, Alpha Viktor Sage, is the present Alpha of Heaven Moon Pack. I’m the only daughter, which means I’m the only heir to take up the position when he retires. To be honest, I can’t believe he’s even thought of retiring. I mean look at him. The man hasn’t aged a day after at least twenty-five. He’s perfectly fit, healthy, and capable of running the pack for at least a year. He hasn’t even hit forty yet. “Give me a year, Dad. That’s all I’m asking.” All my life, my father has drilled the importance of my Alpha blood deep into my head. Let’s say since I was around five. He would take me to his meetings, talk to me about some private pack matters that did not matter to me at the age of six. I was what they call, normal. Normal for wanting to play around and not bother myself constantly with matters of the pack. I thank Goddess for my mom who knocked some sense into my father for attempting to train me when I was five. Imagine picking up an axe or a knife at that age and trying not to be afraid when your opponent is the hulk. My father always said that someday, the people of this pack will respect me, and so will he. But I made up my mind. I want to go abroad for at least a year first before taking up the alpha position. So, here I am, trying to convince my Dad, the great ol’ mighty Alpha, to hold his horses until I return. “If you think about it, you can also benefit a lot from—" “Fine.” He cuts me off. “Ah, I knew you’d say that. So I prepared this sp—wait, what?” “I said fine. I can wait.” My father says. My eyes go wide and I squeal my excitement. I knew then there’s only one thing left to do. I hugged my Dad, who chuckled before hugging me back. “Oh, by the way,” I jumped back and Dad gives me a ‘what now?’ look. “Since I’m basically eighteen now, can I go to the party with Dex?” His brows scrunch hearing his name. He never liked Dex from the beginning, I could never understand why. Hell, I could never understand men and their games of pride and prejudice. “Please, please, please, pleeaaaassseeeeee?” I clasp my hands together, pout, and give him the big, round, puppy eyes he used to give into. I call it the ‘Puppy Move’. I mentally chuckle to myself when I hear him sigh. “Alright. Just because you’re turning eighteen at midnight.” He grumbles. “Yes!” I scream and do a victory dance in front of him before I realize what I’m doing. My father looks at me, appalled, making me freeze on the last step and clear my throat. I hug him for the last time, kissing him in the cheek. I could hear his sigh turn into a chuckle as I leave his office and dash towards my room to change. It’s my 18th birthday coming up. All I know is I’m going to have a blast.Dex met me at the club that night. My father didn’t want him parading his mustang around the house, taking him as an arrogant douche who like to wave his money around. I shake my head, trying to get rid of negative thoughts before my birthday. My father finally said yes to my proposal. It’s a miracle he even let me go to the club. So, I plan to make the most of it.
“Hey,” Dex walks up to me in his party clothes. I rolled my eyes at his choice of clothing. Did he have to pick a jacket covered in pecks of sparkling diamonds?
“Hey to you, too.” I scrunched my face. “What? You don’t like my panache?” He smirks, and I roll my eyes. “Whatever.” His eyes scan me head to toe. “You look hot.” “Thanks.” I shrug, locking arms with his as we enter the club.The club was buzzing with the pounding beat of the music, making me bob my head, feeling the vibes. Dex got me something to drink while I hit the dance floor without him, swaying my hips and rocking my body to the music.
I could feel several eyes pinned on me but I didn’t care. This was my night. I’m going to enjoy it as much as I can. I got a few drinks in me and my feet stumbled lightly, feeling a little tipsy. “Hi,” I swivel my hips around, feeling a hard chest and a dick lingering way closer to my ass than I would like. “Yes?” I smirk up at a tall, blonde man, yet slightly shorter than Dex by an inch. His pale blue eyes look me up and down even as I continue to dance. I smirk. He’s handsome, too, just not my type. “Can I just say, in behalf of every man here, that you’re absolutely gorgeous?” I roll my eyes, waving him off. I don’t have plans on meeting a man tonight. I just wanted to get wasted and go home. The blonde bloke still won’t stop talking to me. Ryker, he kept saying his name was. It’s starting to get annoying so I squeezed my way out of the dance floor to look for Dex when he grabbed my wrist. “Let go,” I growl. “Come on, don’t act like you don’t want me.” He smirks and I scrunch my face up in disgust. “Go away.” Yet he laughs and tugs on my wrist, everyone around me oblivious to what he was doing. I was going to look for Dex. He was just here before this Ryker guy showed up. “F*ck off.” Suddenly, a dark and dominating aura swooshed behind me. The air instantly fell into dead silence, although the music went on. Slowly, I turn around, and I gasp in sheer horror as I stare at the man with jet black hair, broad shoulders, and a frame that towered over me. My round eyes gawked at the man, seeing as this is not just any Alpha but Alpha Kaden Kyson of the Blood Walkers Pack. My father’s biggest archenemy and he’s hell bent on taking him down.Yet, my wolf sniffs the air. Her ears perking up in attention.
Mate!
Kaden’s POV:I wipe the tears from her eyes. The hurt flashing across them tells me I may not be the only one who feels regret. We both made mistakes. But now, all I want is to gain her full trust. I want to show her I can be her mate, to support her, protect her, and love her all the days of my life. I want to give my life to her and our pups if that means keeping them safe.“I will protect you, protect our pups.” I say with determination and promise, “That is,” I lean down and move closer until our foreheads press together, “If you let me?”Eloise slowly lifts her head, staring up at me and searching for even the slightest hesitation in my eyes. But I could feel her own fade away as she bit her lip, and damn, did I want to crash mine against hers.“Okay,” she finally says.One word. Soft. Fragile. But it shatters me inside out like a damn grenade.I exhale shakily, pressing my forehead harder against hers, memorizing this moment because I know it’s everything. It’s Eloise, my Eloise
151Eloise’s POV:The sight of him being vulnerable, losing control beside me makes my heart clench. As I watch his lower lip tremble, I couldn’t help but feel guilty. It felt like stealing a part of his life. One I can never give back.A lump forms in my throat. I swallow, instantly feeling the dryness of it in my tongue as I drown in my own guilt.“They’re beautiful,” he says finally, his voice hoarse. “F*cking beautiful,” he chuckles, wiping the tears off his face as if to get a grip.I nod, “They are,”Kaden takes his eyes off the screen for a minute and looks at me. I bite the inside of my cheeks, holding his gaze. There is an intensity in it that made knots in my stomach. For a moment, I forgot how to breathe.Until he rips his gaze away and I let out a breath.“Are there more?” he asks, in a gut-wrenchingly polite way. His eyes move between our triplets back and forth.I press my lips in a line, and we both focus on the screen before I show him other pictures of them growing up
Eloise’s POV:We make our way back to the grounds. I’m relieved Kaden at least saw through the wolf for who he is. A man, and for years, he’d been lost after losing his mate and unborn pup. I couldn’t even begin to imagine how he felt that day, when the rogues clamped their teeth around her belly and ripped it out of her. Even now, outside that memory, I can see it. All the blood, and his hands covered in Maya’s blood and his unborn pup’s, makes my heart break.I couldn’t imagine my life without my pups. They are everything, and I would give my last breath for them in a blink.Still, the anguish and excruciating pain he felt was devastating. He lost everything, and I couldn’t help but feel, in some way, how it must have felt for Kaden.I glance at Kaden walking by my side. He had been awful silent for a while ever since Walter shifted. I noted the shock on his face, but his lips had been sealed shut.Logan left to run some errands, but before he left he winked at me and smiled, earnin
Kaden’s POV:Eloise’s body is flush against mine. I could feel Logan’s piercing gaze glare holes into the back of my head, but he’s the last thing I should worry about right now. I’ve just witnessed my mate search through a rogue’s memory, which is near to impossible, unheard of. I can tell by the way her eyes rolled to the back of her head. Also by the way the wolf whimpered and his eyes flicker like his life had flashed before him. And also because Rictus told me.But how could this be? Even Rictus have no idea. But something else stirs inside me, unsettled.Eloise sobs into my chest. Her body shaking uncontrollably.I lift her chin with my finger, whispering sweet nothings into her ear before she lifts her eyes, locking onto mine.“Tell me,” I rasp, “What did you see?”Her bottom lip quivers before she finally speaks, and proceeds to tell me everything. Apparently, this wolf right here is beta to some unknown pack. And her pregnant mate was attacked by rogues who had the unquenchab
Eloise's POV:Kaden slits his eyes and looks at me, "Eloise," "No." I glue my feet to the ground, letting him know I am not going anywhere until he listens.Why does he want me to leave so bad?"You have to listen,"Kaden moves his gaze between me and Logan who tosses a knowing smirk my way.Kaden sighs, "Fine." He grunts.Logan gives me a nod, and I turn back to the wolf, Walter.I extend my hand, slipping it between the bars which inevitably elicits a growl from Kaden. I shoot him a glare and he does not move, but his eyes are glued to my hand, preparing for the worst.Before I can place my hand on the wolf's fur, he leaned forward, pushing his forehead onto my hand instead. The moment my fingertips brushed his fur, my eyes roll to the back of my head as I am transported to a place where my feet is rooted to the grass. I felt my soul leave my body as visions began to flash before my eyes in nanoseconds, but I feel as if I am right there.I blink, opening my eyes slowly. When I look
Eloise’s POV:The cells is probably the filthiest place in the pack house. While everything above these old cages are filled with luxurious pieces from floor to the damn ceiling, everything down here gathers dust and filth. What’s more, I feel like the prisoners here were plucked and tossed into the pit of the abyss, never to be seen or heard from again. And it reeks of blood and feces that can never be seen clearly as not a single ray of sunlight touches these dark cells.Is this what the rumors were all about when they labeled Kaden as the notorious, merciless alpha ever known?I can’t believe this. I can’t believe him.I step towards the cell Logan has brought me to see, and I duck my head to see the same wolf who took my side unexpectedly that day I was attacked in the forest.“Hello,” I speak out, trying to reach him. He was still in wolf form, curled up facing the far wall.“Can I talk to you just for a second?” As my eyes focus on his form, I furrow my brows when I see blood co
146Eloise’s POV:Shaking my head, I hold back angry tears before they rise to the surface. The hallway is wrapped in suffocating silence, which also means he did not follow after me.Good. If he really wants my trust, he would let me wallow in my regret for ever coming back here in the first place. I swallow the lump in my throat, and walk faster before turning around the corner.The next moment, I slam into a hard chest that has me stumbling backwards, and I lose balance. I brace myself for the fall as I feel my body leaning back. I squeeze my eyes shut knowing this has got to hurt but surprise fills me when a hand wraps around my waist and my back hits something hard. And that is not the cold, tiled floor of this ridiculous mansion of a pack house.“Look who finally woke up,” a deep chuckle resounded in my ear, and I blink my eyes open.“Logan,” He flashes me his handsome smile and places me gently back on my feet.“You scared the shit out of me,” I chuckle, unable to hide the ne
Eloise's POV:I groan, blinking rapidly. My mind is in a whirlwind of complicated emotions as I try to figure out where the hell I am. The last thing I remember was the sound of growling and snarling as a fight breaks loose all around me. Rogues. And one I couldn't seem to get off my pounding head.The wolf with blue eyes.He helped me. My head whips up so fast and I gasp when I remembered everything that had happened so far.And that scent that engulfed me while my body felt like it was flying in the air, lingered close. Logan.He saved me, didn't he?"You're awake." My head snaps to my right as a shiver snakes down my throbbing, aching pussy. It hurts so bad. And I'm not even exaggerating it.The voice had broken out so close right next to me, before I was even aware of his dark figure leaning against the wall and his arms crossed against his chest."Kaden," I blow out a breath as I take him all in. His hair sat a sexy mess on top of his head, looking like he'd run his fingers thr
Kaden’s POV:‘Alpha, we found her.’ The pack link split through my head. The words sending an instant relief through me and I come to a screeching halt after running for miles for hours. If I were being honest, the run was driving me crazy.Eloise isn’t in any condition to be wandering around outside the pack house. Hell, she shouldn’t even be one foot away from her bed.Everyone knows that she-wolves mated to Alphas turn extremely weak after their Alpha mate successfully broke their heat. Eloise does not just happen to be my mate, but she is also Alpha by blood. In terms of sex drive, Alpha females are on par, or they might even exceed an Alpha’s sex drive. She may not remember everything from the past three days she had gone into extreme heat, but I had kept my eye on her and could say she had the drive of two she-wolves combined. Her wolf took that opportunity and dominated me in every way and I let her. And fuck, did I relish every singly moment of it.She was beautiful as when sh
