"Shh, Alpha Kieran, your wife might hear us and we'll be in so much trouble," whispered Astoria as Kieran shoved her against the wall, his hands slowly gliding up her smooth thighs. Their lips were barely apart, his breath brushing against her face. "Don't care," he growled. "All I want right now is you and you alone." Growing up in the Winter Moon Pack, Astoria faced relentless mistreatment but couldn't help falling for Kieran, the indifferent yet charismatic son of the Alpha. One night, a single encounter between them left Astoria with a life-altering secret. Years later, Kieran returns to claim his position as Alpha, only to find there's a condition he must meet to lead the pack. Astoria now finds herself in a complicated and dangerous situation that could change everything.
View MoreTRIGGER WARNING:- VIOLENCE AND ABUSE I made my way over to Kieran's room, walking slowly down the corridor, my mind racing with a series of thoughts. What could Kieran possibly want from me? And how far would the Queen go to make me suffer now that she had exposed such a deep secret and her plans had fallen apart? My heart pounded nervously in my chest as I gulped, determined to face my challenges head-on, no matter how difficult or terrifying it might be.Suddenly, a sharp slap to my face snapped me out of my thoughts. The blow was so powerful that it sent me crashing into the nearby wall. I clutched my stinging cheek, my eyes shimmering with unshed tears. My attacker was none other than the Queen herself, glaring down at me with fury. I knew she was ready to kill me now, to waste no time in making my life a living hell. There would be no mercy—of that, I was certain."You bloody witch!" she sneered, yanking me up by the arm and delivering another brutal slap to my face. I collapsed
I struggled to process everything unfolding before my eyes; none of it felt real at that moment. How could I, of all people, be the daughter of the late Alpha Jacob? Where did this connection even come from? And had I really borne a child with my own brother? I forced myself to stop panicking, clinging to the hope that the queen was just trying to prevent me from marrying her son. That was the only explanation that made any sense."What are you talking about, woman?" the councilman's voice boomed through the room, a frown etched on his face. Even he was repulsed by the queen's words—who wouldn't be? She had just uttered something truly revolting. I took a deep breath and looked at Kieran, who met my eyes with surprise before quickly breaking eye contact, turning instead toward his mother. "Can you prove the legitimacy of these claims? The old alpha was many things, but infidelity was never one of them," he added.The queen frantically looked around for something. Her eyes landed on on
" Are you going to stay in my arms forever?" He asked. At that very moment, I immediately snapped back to reality as his grip on me loosened. I got out of his arms, immediately looked down and tucked my hair behind my ears. It was a crime for a lowlife servant like me to stare into the eyes of royalty, and I had just been in his arms. It was a relief the queen was not nearby to witness this, or things could have been worse. "Oh my, did you fall from there?" The woman I had just discovered was his wife asked with a concerned look on her face. I felt uncomfortable, realizing that Kieran still had his eyes on me. This was the longest he had ever stared at me, and at that moment, I wanted to move as far away from him as possible, but I couldn't."You shouldn't really worry about what happens to the servant," a voice said, shocking me. I quickly bowed my head as the queen joined us. I didn't want to be around her because I knew she particularly despised me and would do anything to ensure
I sat in the cold, dark dungeon, half naked, my body freezing as my teeth clenched together. I had shed so much tears it was hard to summon another. I had little to no choice but to lay there in silence, curled into a ball. The only sound I could hear was the chattering of my teeth. The next thing I heard was the dungeon door opening behind me, followed by the voice of my nine-year-old boy as he ran in, calling out, "Mother!" I quickly sat up, shivering, and hugged him tightly, and he returned the embrace without hesitation. He came with a blanket, quickly breaking the hug to wrap it around me. I curled into it immediately, seeking warmth. "Are you alright? Are you fine?" my son asked, concern on his face. I nodded weakly, too drained to speak, but relieved to see him again after two days in that cold, foodless, and waterless dungeon. "They didn't allow me to see you." "Shhh," I hushed him, placing a finger over my lips, glancing at the head maid standing beside the guard with a
ASTORIA POINT OF VIEW "You should be the one to go in, Senora," said Kana, an omega with long black hair. "Why don't you go in, Kana?" Senora, the blonde, argued back. They both stood at the entrance of Prince Kieran's chambers, each terrified of being the first to enter. I stood there with a broom in my hands, watching them argue. I had just finished sweeping the entire palace when I caught sight of their disagreement. Pushing the long black hair that danced across my face to the side, I tried to sneak away before they noticed me. But with my luck and clumsiness, I tripped and let out a small scream as I fell to the ground. I could tell their attention was already on me when I overheard one of them muttering, "I can't believe we have to rely on this useless servant," as if they were not servants like me. Gathering myself, I stood up and quickly dusted off the dirt clinging to my dress. I pushed my hair to the side and lifted my head to look them in the eyes. "You, servant
