Not Today, Alphas! Too Late
Chapter 16: Too LateEris~I didn’t care anymore. The weight of the curse, Kaya, the wedding—was crushing me from the inside out. My hands trembled as I pulled harder at the window latch. The Fae. If I could just reach him, talk to him, maybe… maybe I could undo all of this.‘Eris, stop! Please!’ Seven’s voice panicked in my head, her anxiety was eating my bones. 'You need to be careful. You’ll hurt yourself, or worse—'“I don’t care!” I hissed under my breath, feeling the sharp edge of the window on my skin. My fingers slipped, but I kept pulling. The window creaked, and a tiny crack splintered across the glass.Seven was practically screaming at me now. 'Please, Eris! You have to stop, they’ll hear us! Kaya will—'“I don’t care about Kaya!” The words came out louder than I intended, my heart was beating faster in my chest. “I can’t do this anymore, Seven. I can’t. I need this curse gone. I need to be free from this torture.”The window finally gave way, shuddering open with a lou
Not Today, Alphas! Fitting The Bride
Chapter 17: Fitting The BrideThe sun was barely peeking through the thick curtains when the maids rushed in, breaking the suffocating silence of the night. I hadn’t slept. My eyes were swollen, my thoughts circled around the shattered window and the disappearing Fae. My last hope had slipped through my fingers, and now, it was too late. The door creaked open, and the head maid entered with an airy laugh. "Good morning, Lady Eris," she said as if today was just any other day. But it wasn’t. It was my wedding day.Other maids followed her, bustling around me with fabrics, laces, and pins. They murdered over the white silk dress that had been laid out on the chair near my bed. It shimmered in the morning light, the fabric so smooth it looked like water. The dress was long, far too long for someone like me, and the veil even longer, falling behind like the weight of the curse itself. The maids tugged me out. , guiding me toward the gown, “Here, miss…”I stood there, motionless, as
Not Today, Alphas! The Wolf And The Alpha
Chapter 18: The Wolf and the AlphaKaya~I left Eris standing by the window, her back to me, staring at the garden below. I wanted to stay, to comfort her, to somehow make her believe that everything would be alright. But the words wouldn’t come. It felt like anything I said would just push her further away. So, I did the only thing I could—I left.The door clicked softly behind me, and I leaned against the wall for a moment, rubbing my face with my hands. My heart was drowning in the ocean. I knew Eris didn’t want this. I knew she felt trapped, and I hated it. But what could I do? This was the path laid out for us. For her. For me.I walked down the long hallway, trying to clear my head. The grand hall wasn’t far, and I knew Leina would be there, overseeing the wedding preparations. She was always there, making sure everything was perfect.As I entered, I spotted her immediately. Leina, my mother, stood at the center of the activity, her hands glowed softly as she summoned more of th
Not Today, Alphas! The Silent Walk
Chapter 19: The Silent WalkThe maids came for me again, this time with more glowing faces than before. They looked happy that a wedding was happening today. I was sure many expected me to yell and shout, try to escape which I did, but it was completely useless in the end. I didn’t say anything. I just couldn’t. My body was already heavy in the dress, the pearls in my hair were weighing me down even more. It was a tradition for the maids to lead the bride, and for Luna—Leina, in this case—to follow behind. I didn’t know why, and I didn’t care to ask. I just moved when they told me to, my steps were quiet as I followed them down the hall.They murmured among themselves with their soft voices. "The pearls match her hair perfectly," one of them whispered."So beautiful," said another. "Like she was born to wear them."I kept my eyes on the floor, my heart a cold, numb thing in my chest. Seven didn’t say a word. She was quiet, like the rest of me, though I could feel her stirring, re
Not Today, Alphas! They Are Both My Mates?!
Chapter 20: They’re Both My Mates?!And just like that, a loud voice cut through the fight. "STOP IT!!!"Leina’s voice was like a clap of thunder. The entire room went dead silent. Kaya froze, his jaws still latched onto the black wolf's fur. The black wolf, mid-lunge, dropped to the floor with a thud. Both of them, bleeding from their necks, ears pinned back like scolded puppies. I blinked. Did she just... tame them with her voice?The two massive wolves whined like they were being told off for chewing up the furniture.Kaya released the black wolf’s neck and a pitiful little whimper escaped his bloody snout. I couldn't believe it. These were supposed to be fierce wolves, ready to rip each other apart—and now they looked like guilty pups caught with their paws in the cookie jar. "Turn back. Now," Leina said in a strict yet somehow calm tone.Without hesitation, both wolves shifted back into human form, still bleeding from their necks and shoulders. I had to stifle a laugh. Ther
Not Today, Alphas! Ancient Law: Pick Me!
Chapter 21 : Ancient Law: Pick me!Kaya~I sat in my chambers, barely holding on to the edge of my sanity. My fists were clenched so tight my knuckles turned white, and all I could feel was the electricity flowing through me. Kai wasn’t any better. ‘This is insane,’ Kai growled in the back of my mind. ‘We were so close. All that, and now we’re stuck because of some ancient law?’“I know,” I muttered aloud, running a hand through my hair. “A trial... and she has to choose. It’s absurd.”The door creaked open behind me, and I didn’t even need to turn to know who it was. Leina always had that soft, careful presence. She walked in slowly, as if not wanting to scare me, but the truth was, I was already at the edge.“Kaya,” she said softly, sitting down beside me. Her voice had that familiar calmness and gentleness, but today it couldn’t soothe me. “I know...”I stared at the floor, unable to meet her eyes. “This law... it’s going to ruin everything.”Leina was quiet for a moment, then r
Not Today, Alphas! To Tell You The Truth
Chapter 22: To Tell You The TruthSamuel ~My life wasn’t the glory I once imagined. Many times, I felt alone, fighting my own battles. My father never cared for me, and I grew up without knowing love. The only person who showed me kindness was Kaya. He was there for me, especially after my mother died giving birth to me.Kaya’s father came to mourn with us. My mother was known for her beauty, and her loss hit hard. After that, my father decided to use Kaya’s family for a political alliance. Kaya and I grew up like brothers, and his mother, Leina, loved me as her own.But now, everything was at risk. We both marked the same mate.Eris…The moment I saw her, something deep inside me lit up, like a shining star in my chest. She was beautiful, and my wolf, Drax, felt the same. He was calm and different to my feelings. Drax saw her wolf, too. She was just as stunning, with a look that took my breath away.Luna Leina told me to stay away from Eris. But how could I? I needed to know if s
Not Today, Alphas! Mother…
Chapter 23: Mother…Eris ~I couldn't breathe. The words blurred together as I stared down at the letter in my hands, my chest tightened. My legs gave out beneath me, and I collapsed to the floor, knees hit the cold stone. It should've hurt, but the pain inside was louder-crushing, drowning out everything else.I didn't even realise I was crying until I felt the tears, like tiny pearls slipped down my face and splashed onto the letter. My fingers trembled as I read and reread the words, as if somehow they'd change."Augustin is dead. Your mother will be next if you don't return. War is coming."My heart shattered. I could see them-the images so clear. My mother, my pack, all destroyed. Darius had killed Alpha Augustin. He'd killed my mother too, or he would, if I didn't do what he wanted. His threat hung in the air like poison, choking me deeply with his strong hairy hands.Seven stirred and paced, she was growling deeply and feral, pushing at the edges of my mind.‘Let me out,’ she
