JANA'S POV
Did I just hear that the Alpha King wants me? This was impossible to believe, it felt as if I heard wrong. Why would the Alpha King want me?
He looked at me as my mouth went agape, still trying to process what I had just heard. Then he stood up and walked towards me, I wondered why he walked towards me slowly, with his face, showing no expression.
"You are my mate and I want you to be mine." He said, with a slight smile on his face.
"I....I...I?" I asked, in shock.
"Yes."
~
I had agreed to be his mate and had followed him to the palace, where I began to live in. I was his mate for now, but when the crowning takes place, I would become the Luna.
It was only a few days I had spent, but Stefan had showed me love that I never even knew, existed. I walked out of my quarters on a sunny day, it was a busy place as a few maids were all over the compound, taking care of the flowers, garden and other things.
As I stepped out, the maids were trembling, but were still trying to continue their work, even as they were using their side eye to watch me. They had once witnessed a time when I was having a hard time controlling the dangerous wolf in me and that made them fear and despise me.
"Watch out for any sign of change in her, so you don't end up getting devoured by your kind." One of them whispered to a maid that was near me at that moment.
I tried not to get annoyed, so as to not give the dark wolf in me, space to surface. Then Stefan appeared out of nowhere and was walking towards me, with a smile on his face. I was relieved, at least, those maids wouldn't dare talk, now that he was here.
"How about you have a shower, there is somewhere I would like to take you to." He said, pushing me lightly to change into something else.
Despite the fact that he knew how dangerous my wolf could be, he still preferred to be with me. Stefan was everything I wished for in a man and he did all the things I wished I experienced in a relationship. He had even taken me to his vampire kingdom as well, where I got to know of different abilities they had, which most of them was similar to ours, but we were much stronger in strength.
After I had a shower and wore another cloth, he took me to a restaurant where we dined and he made me smile often. I was happy right now and feeling on top of the world, but this didn't last long as I began to feel weird, it was my wolf awakening again.
I began to sweat in fear that it would ruin the moment.
"Are you okay? You do not seem fine." Stefan asked, worriedly.
"I'm fine."
"I'll be right back. I'm going to the restroom." Stefan said as he stood up to leave for the restroom.
I didn't know if i should over look the feeling of my wolf awakening, probably it won't come up or I should just end our meeting now, to avoid any problem. But before I could decide, my wolf began to growl lightly.
"This is a nice view, people are here." My wolf said in a raspy voice.
"Don't do this, please. Allow me have this time to myself." I pleaded, talking lightly.
Then I decided to leave, since it seemed as if my wolf was going to cause a disaster. But before I could leave, my wolf took control. It made me run towards a family and I slashed the whole family to death. Everyone ran for their dear life and I was left with blood, trickling down my claws. Then Stefan came out, looking shocked at what had just happened.

STEFAN'S POV
I went to the restroom to ease myself, although, I was hoping that Jana was really fine as she claimed to be. Suddenly, I started hearing screams and in no time, it had reduced as if the restaurant was deserted already.
I went outside of the restroom, and to my horror, I saw Jana, stained with blood and her claws which just went in, blood was trickling down from it.
"What just happened?" I ran to her, trying to be certain that she was fine.
I looked towards the direction she was now looking at, she had killed a whole family. She was trembling and tears strolled down her cheeks as she looked like she had just murdered her family.
I held her hand and led her back to the palace. Instead of taking her to her quarters, I took her to mine.
"Go to the bathroom to have your bath, Jana." I said, looking at her with a warm expression on my face.
I didn't want her to feel bad as I knew none of this was her fault. After she had a shower, she came back to the room, with her eyes lowered and she was fiddling with her fingers.
"I... I murdered a whole family." She said, looking lost.
"Jana, it wasn't you and you can still do your best to try to keep it under control." I said, although, I was beginning to see how hard things have been with her.
Then my beta came over to me.
"Alpha, the council of elders have asked to see you." He informed, lowering his eyes.
I knew that it was regarding Jana that they called me. To murder was an offense, but she was off the hook, because they knew it wasn't her. I got to the meeting hall and I noticed that they weren't looking pleased.
"Alpha, we still stand against her being the Luna of this kingdom. Is this how she would murder us one by one, because of her curse?" Elder Neon asked, looking worried.
"Yes. We don't feel safe with her here. A family died, the people would be too frightened to continue with their daily life in dread that the Luna to be could pounce on them from anywhere." Elder Gustav added, looking displeased.
With all the words that was said during the meeting, I began to doubt if I could still keep her safe. The elders were trying to make me know that I couldn't handle this, would I have to listen to them?
JANA’S POVI was still feeling shocked over what had happened. It was certain that it was the council of elders who called him over.“How does it feel to be feared even by the council of elders?” My wolf asked, and chuckled.“Get the hell out of me and stop disturbing me.” I shouted with hot tears rolling down my cheeks.“Never!” My wolf declared, with a raspy voice.~STEFAN’S POVDespite the fact that I was worried if this was how things were going to continue, I still had that feeling that I needed to keep trying my best over her. I walked back home and to my quarters.“Are you hungry? Would you like me to get something for you?” I asked, looking concerned.“N…no. I don’t feel hungry at the moment.” She replied, with a slight smile.“Alright. Let’s talk. Sit.” She sat down, with her eyes showing she was inquisitive at the moment. “Is there a particular time that this dangerous wolf comes out of you? So, we would know the time you’ll be out and the time you won’t.” I asked, inquis
STEFAN’S POVI couldn’t believe my ears. Jana is gone? I killed her with my own hands. I fell to my knees with an indescribable pain in my hear.“No!” I shouted as my fangs came out and I growled out loud in pain of my lost loved one. A few days later, I was still devastated as expected. I didn’t go out, neither did I eat. The reality of losing Jana was causing me a lot of pain that no pain reliever could relieve me of. I heard a knock on my door and knew it was my beta. He had been coming consecutively to check up on me and that was getting on my nerves.“What do you have to say this time?” I asked, without looking at him.“Alpha, you have not eaten for the past three days and it would affect you if you continue this way. Please eat something. I know that if there was a way you can bring her back, you would have done so.” He said, looking concerned.As he finished his sentence, my brain jolted and I remembered the witches whom we do not relate with. They would be able to bring back m
STEFAN’S POVI was exiled and the only place I could go to was the human world to stay hidden from the supernatural world. I, King Stefan, who was once revered was now exiled from my kingdoms. I entered the portal, with determination to start a new life.~A few years later…“Boss, your schedule for today is a bit hectic. You have a meeting with Mr. Greenfield, Mrs. Walter and you have a golf date with Miss Jenny.” My secretary informed me as he held the document.“Cancel them all.” I instructed, without looking up at him.“S…sir? There is still more.” He said as he bent his head to me.“I said, cancel them all!” I slammed my fist on the table which made a few breakable things on my table to roll of the table and break.“o…okay sir.” He stuttered and left my office.Since I lost Jana, I had become a cold-hearted freak and was used to being alone. I detested having meetings with any of them as we were bound from interacting with humans to the extent of them finding out who we really ar
STEFAN’S POV.“Excuse me sir, did you just say I should hire her? They have not compared her to anyone yet.” My secretary said, bulging his eyes out.“Inform those who are applying for the same position as hers, that we have found someone for the job.” I instructed him as I kept looking at Jana.“Alright sir.” My secretary said as he made to leave.“Wait. What position is she applying for?” I asked, out of curiosity.“A fashion designer and we have only one slot left.” He replied, respectfully.“Alright. You can leave.”I took a last look at her and then went back to my office. I was overjoyed, fate had brought back Jane to me and there was hope for me to get her back. Then I picked up the landline, then called my secretary.“Inform her that she is to start work, tomorrow.” “Alright, sir.”Then I hung up and crossed my legs, then played music. This was the first best day I have ever had since I came to the human world.JANA’S POVI woke up feeling ready to try out Stefan’s Design Co
JANA’S POV“Hello everyone, I am Melissa and I am the new recruit.” I greeted everyone with a bright smile on my face.“You are welcome. I am Dana, the head of this team. We have Alicia, Edward, Corey and Britney who are a part of this team.” Dana introduced them to me and they all came to me to give me a handshake. “So, I am certain you know your work as a fashion designer and that is the same thing we do here, but we have to make sure that we stand out, so that we can beat the other team. And then we would be able to get recognition and be trusted more for trendy outfits, okay?” Dana explained, briefly as she put her hands on her waist.Looking at her, I could tell her that she had a good fashion sense, even if it was not one that made people think she is gifted or sort, but I admired her and the way she spoke. Being in one of the best companies and meeting cool colleagues, got me stoked.“Alicia and Edward are in charge of street wears, and with your portfolio, I can see that you
JANA’S POV.“Who is there?” I asked, with my eyes, looking around in fear.“Sorry, did I scare you?” It was the pervert CEO who had appeared in the restroom with me.“What are you doing here?” I asked as I held myself tight.“I’m not here to hurt you.” He said, looking like he was concerned.“You are in the female’s restroom!” I shouted as I reached the end of the restroom.Then he looked around like he knew nothing about where he was. “Oh, my goodness. I’m sorry.” He apologized, then left the restroom.My heart was still racing and I was clueless on what to do. Was he really a pervert? Why is it me he has his eyes on? I left the restroom and walked quickly to the office where I met the others, waiting for me.“Uhm… Sorry I took time.” I apologized, with my hands, shaking as I picked up my bag.“It’s fine.” Britney said, with a smile on her face and then, she hung her hand around my shoulders.Edward had a car, so we all hopped in and he drove us to the restaurant.~“Cheers!” Ever
STEFAN'S POV.I knew this was going to be a problem, if I let her go with this information. Then I picked her up and she was shivering, in fear.Then I held her tight.“You saw none of my werewolf powers. You only saw how I fought with him with good skills and then he got knocked out.” I said, using my vampire powers to hypnotize her. Then I knocked her out and then lodged her in a hotel room and went back to my house. I removed my tie and sat on the couch, staring into blank space and the first thought that came to my mind was Jana. I needed to be in her life and it just seemed that every way I tried to come closer, was wrong to her.~MELISSA’S POVThe next day, I went to work, ready to take on my project. As I got to work, I greeted everyone, with a smile, and before I could have my seat. That same man who addressed us before the CEO, walked in.“Miss Melissa?” He called my name, then walked out.I looked at my colleagues, then followed the secretary.‘Sorry if you may have found
MELISSA’S POV.“Melissa! Melissa!” I could hear my name, being called, but it wasn’t loud. My eyes began to open little by little. Had I fainted?Edward picked me up gently and I staggered a bit, but he was there to hold me tight. He held me tight and then I rubbed my eyes and opened it, only to find him looking at me, with worry.“Are you sure you are fine? Come, let’s get to the clinic.” He said, with worry, written all over his face.“I’m…I’m fine. I…I can walk on my own.” I said as I tried to walk on my own, but staggered back into his arms.“You see? I do not think you are fine. Let’s get you to the clinic.” Edward said, then drove me to the clinic.~“You are fine. You probably just need rest.” The nurse said, with a smile.I couldn’t explain what had happened to me, neither did I understand what happened. But why did I pass out over that? Something seemed fishy, but I guess I really needed rest just as the nurse said.While Edward was driving me back home, I looked at him. He
MELISSA'S POV.Bonus Chapter.I got out of the swirling portal and wiped my hair to the back as it had scattered due to the wind. Oh, my. It has been a long while since I got here. It feels like second home.I walked out of the woods and then when I got to the road side, I brought out the currency I had kept since I left here and then hailed a cab.“Taxi!” I hailed the cab and got into it. I sat back and exhaled, ready to enjoy the ride.“Where to, ma’am?” He asked, politely.“Stefan’s Design, please.”I wanted to see how Edward was doing after all these months. I was certain he was doing well as he was a good leader and was capable of leading the people well. As soon as I got to the company, I ensured I put on the cap I brought along with me, so I won’t be recognized by anyone here. What explanation would I give them all if they caught sight of me? So, it was best for me to go unnoticed.I walked up to the vending machine and smiled as I recalled beautiful memories here, especial
STEFAN'S POV.It was a bright new day and this day felt different. Of course, it was the day to determine if we were going to win this war or not. But I had faith that our fate had something better in store for us all."It's time, right?" Melissa asked."Yes." Then I turned to the three warriors, Diego and Natasha. "We might face fear, hurdles and problems that seem bigger than us all, but we'll never back out until we win. Are we ready to fight this war!" I voiced out in confidence."Yes, Alpha!" They all chorused and then we headed out of the witches' kingdom back to the woods.While walking in the woods, Diego spoke up."The witches were really selfish this time, apart from giving Luna Jana back to us. If they couldn't fight the war, they could have at least, given us something which could be helpful to us." Diego pouted."It's fine, Diego. I believe we will win this war." "With or without them." Natasha added, with confidence."That's the spirit! It's time to show Valon the grea
MELISSA'S POV.I was in the room which they had kept me in, with my wounds magically healed. I was thankful that the witches had saved me, but I feared that they would be just another enemy whom I had gotten into their hands.Suddenly, the door creaked open and I noticed one of the witches at the door."You need to come out. Our Queen has asked for your presence." She informed me, without a smile."Do you think she wants to strike me dead or so something really nasty to me?" I asked, out of anxiousness."Please come out before things get nasty." She replied.Why were they so uptight here? I guess that's why they still stood strong, because they didn't allow any slight weakness to destroy them. They were queens over their weaknesses.I slowly followed her out to her meeting hall and to my surprise, I noticed Stefan, standing right before her."Melissa." He called out to me, looking touched."Stefan." I called out to him, softly as I covered my mouth with my hand.I couldn't believe it
STEFAN’S POV.It was a new day, and finally, we had gotten to the witches’ kingdom. I was glad that at least up to seven men made it with me and I hoped that what we came here for was going to be successful and not abortive.The witches were hard to please and to plead to them was a really difficult thing to do with a low chance of being helped. I was lucky that I was helped many years ago without too much effort and I hoped it would be the same, this time, because we didn’t have much time to waste anymore.We got to the large gate and we were stopped by two of their female guards. As fragile as they looked, they were really powerful. One could sense power going through their veins and you wouldn’t want to upset them.“Please allow us in. We have an important matter to talk about to your Queen.” I pleaded.“Our Queen do not want us to allow people in, so you have to go back.” One of them said, with a straight face.“Please you have to allow us in. We came all the way here and tried o
STEFAN'S POV.“Holy shit!”I knew that there were different supernatural but I never knew that there was one like this. She charged towards us and in one strike, she killed three men and then slashed Diego’s skin.“Aaargh!” Diego groaned in pain as he dropped down to the floor.“Her slashes are painful. The only way to kill her is to aim our claws at her heart.” Natasha informed me.“Alright, I guess we have to watch her moves closely as she is really fast.”“Exactly!”I nodded and Natasha and I charged towards her and we were able to avoid her claws. We successfully darted our claws at her heart and she became weak and fell to the ground and was dying slowly.“I think we should stop digging into her heart. Probably we can give her a chance or sort. She might agree to join us in our journey.”“No, Stefan. Do not be in a hurry to gain more people to fight with you. Her kind are deceptive in nature and the second chance you give her, she will ensure she kills you and trust me, that sec
MELISSA’S POV.What am I going to do? I began to think hard and it felt as if my heart which was beating fast was too loud for me to hear my thoughts and I almost screamed at this. Then a thought came to me and Immediately, I put in action.Any wrong move or wrong act could take away the bit of trust he had given me today. I quickly sat on his bed and crossed my legs, then I tried to calm myself so I do not look suspicious.“Phew! You can do this.” I sighed and encouraged myself.Then the door creaked open and my chest heaved up, refusing to go down. Valon walked into the room and his expression showed how surprised he was to see me.“What are you doing here, Jana? What do you want or should I say to what pleasure do I owe your presence?” He inquired while he stood, gazing at me.“I came to ask for a favor.”“What favor is that?” He asked, with his furrowed brows, becoming more obvious.“I want a personal guard. In fact, I need a personal guard. Ever since you gave me one just to tes
MELISSA’S POV.I didn’t know if this could be a trap or not and I wouldn’t want to fall into something like this, so I had to carefully choose my words and know the right action to take while in this dungeon.“I guess a lot of things have gotten into your head. Help me check if there is anything like a letter in your cell.” Then he scoffed. “I know about the letter which you are looking for.” He blurted out as he held the bars of his cell.If truly he knew what I was looking for and could say something really informative, it was best to ask him but I needed to try my best not to sound desperate.“You know about the letter, really? Well, if you do, where is it?” I asked, hoping he was going to tell me without I having to go through any sort of stress.“Not so fast, Luna.”“What do you want?” I let out my frustration.“I will tell you all you need to know if you are able to persuade Valon to set me free from the dungeon.”“But you do not deserve to be there. You and I both know that.
STEFAN’S POV.Night had fallen and Natasha, Diego and I, were brought out and the crowd gathered to watch the fight between Theodore and I. Some of them seem excited while some had expressions of dread on their faces.“Now Alpha, it is time for us to have a match. Are you ready or you are still warming up?” Theodore asked, looking down at me.I glanced at Natasha and Diego. Diego was looking angry while Natasha was calm. I also stared at the crowd and I could feel the atmosphere was tense around them as well, then I looked back at Theodore who was acting foolish.To me, he was just like a boy whom I needed to correct and knock some senses into his head.“I know very well that you are mocking me and if I were to look at our age, I am very much older than you. I am not interested in bragging about how I could knock you out in a second.” I said to him and he snickered.Then I turned to the crowd.“You all are wasting the strength and the time that is needed for more important things tha
MELISSA’S POV.I mustered up my courage and walked up to him.“So, you requested to see me. What do you want to see me for? I am all ears.” “I actually agreed at the last minute to do what you wanted me to do back then, but the guard decided not to allow me out of the drum.”I had also planned that I would use the guard’s hatred towards me to my advantage. After all, the wicked go down.“So, what you are saying is that he intentionally left you to die.” Valon tried to make sense of what I had just said to him.“That’s correct.” I affirmed, trying to maintain how fast my heart was beating.I wouldn’t want him to be suspicious of my moves.“Well, I do not believe you. If I have to believe you, then I will need evidence.” He replied as he clasped his fingers and rested his chin on them.“What evidence do you need? Because I am certain that you will get evidence. I know he hates me and wants to get rid of me.”“The only way I can get my evidence of what you claimed is if I make him your
