Elora's POV“I wish to see you alive, Elora. I don’t know why you keep suspecting that I did this!” She said as she went on her knees, thinking she could fool or deceive me.Walking closer to her, I placed my hand on her shoulder. A smile crept across my lips as I stared directly into her eyes.“I never said you did it, Scarlet, so why do you keep begging me when I haven’t said or done anything yet?” I asked with my brows raised in confusion and uncertainty.Immediately, she stormed to her feet, her eyes hovering all over the place as she kept mute for a split second. I could see her fists clench as she stood before us. She definitely didn’t expect me to act this way or speak to her in such a manner.“I just wanted her to speak, to tell me her part of the story. I never said you did it, dear Scarlet!” I smiled as I stared at her.“Now that’s enough. If she won’t speak, then I’ll be forced to call the guards in here,” Alpha Killian, who was becoming impatient, stated, making me snap my
Elora's POV.“We can't live like this, Elora, and you know that!” Alpha Killian declared, a sense of anger and regret in his tone.“Then let me question her myself, Alpha Killian! Is that too much to ask for? I know something is wrong somewhere, and if I don't get to question her, then I think you should just get used to this way of life!” I snapped as I turned around to him.I was so furious that I was certain I could say just anything to make Alpha Killian see that he should have never arrested an innocent lady because of what Scarlet had said to him.“What?” His brows scrunched as he exclaimed, staring at me with a sense of confusion.“You heard me right. Let me question her myself, and this time face to face.” I pressed, but he ended up shaking his head in refusal.The truth was, even if Alpha Killian didn't let me go to the lady to question her now, I was definitely going to sneak into her cell and confront her later, so as it stood, it was best that he gave me his permission.“I
Elora's POV“I am sorry, Luna Elora, but I don't think I can help you with that!” She collapsed on her butt as she crawled backward, her back placed on the cold wall as she tried to stay away from me.“I don't understand, why won't you speak to me? I could help you, and you know that, right? I am here for you!” I pressed as I went closer to her.I swiftly crouched down on my left knee so I could get right into her head, right into her heart. She was innocent, and I knew it. She wouldn't dream of hurting anyone.“I … I just…” Just as she was going to speak, I reached for her hand, holding it right in mine, and squeezed it gently, a smile forming on my lips as I stared at her without looking away.“I'm begging you right now, on my knees… Please tell me what happened. It's clear that someone wants me dead, and if … if I don't find them this time, I might get killed without knowing who did it.” I pleaded, my hand reaching for her hair as I caressed it gently.“Please tell me everything yo
Elora's POV**Judgement Day**With a smile curling up on my lips and my heart rushing with a thrill knowing that Scarlet was going to leave the mansion today, I couldn't help but feel like the happiest woman in the pack as it stood.Alpha Killian was going to do the right thing, and I was certain about that fact.“Let's see what you have today, Scarlet!” I mumbled as I picked up my dress that was already placed on the couch for me. I had it put on, and staring at myself in the mirror, I couldn't help but admire every single bit of the gown.It was a red gown with black crystal-like stones on it. It signified judgement, and anyone that was guilty would definitely face nothing but the wrath of the pack.Just as I kept staring at myself in the mirror, a sudden knock came at the door.“Come in!” I commanded, knowing who it was. A maid younger than I was came into the room with a pillow in her hand and my necklace on it.I picked it up and had it placed around my neck and took my earrings.
Elora's POV.Chief Han's chair scraped harshly against the wooden floor as he stood, his fist slamming down on the table in front of him. The loud bang echoed through the room showing his sudden fury and rage."You have no right to question her, Elora, and you know it!" he roared, his eyes blazing with anger.I could feel my own fury rising to meet him. My jaw tightened, and I clenched my teeth, refusing to back down. I couldn't let him see me weak, it'd only make him want to act like he was the boss which he definitely wasn't."Don't I? I am the Luna who almost got killed! Poisoned! I can question anyone… anyone at all!" My voice was sharp, each word edged with the bitterness of his disgust.I turned to face Scarlet. Her expression was sinister as always, a smirk playing at the corners of her mouth. She didn't care about what I thought or felt. She only wanted to see me brought low, humiliated in front of everyone. The sight of her smug face only fueled my anger to make her pay de
Elora's POV. I was expecting to find the maid walking into the throne chamber on her feets but the second the doors were pushed open, I found a body on a stretcher pushed into the place by the guard whom I had ordered to go get her. I froze for a second, my heart racing with nothing but shock and disbelief as I stood up from the chair and climbed down to the middle of the place. “Where is the maid I asked you to bring in here?” I asked, my focus fixed on him as I waited for a response from him. “She is here, Luna .. it happened she died before I got to her!” I couldn't believe what I was hearing. "Dead? No! That's impossible! She isn't dead! She can't be dead!" I declared, shaking my head in disbelief. The room seemed to close in around me, my thoughts racing. How could she be dead? I had just seen her last night, alive and well.The guard, looking visibly shaken, tried to speak. "I'm sorry I got there late, Luna... I didn't..." His voice faltered, and I could see the guilt and
Elora's POV.“No! She is dead…” Scarlet shook her head as she just couldn't accept what was right before her. “Well, she isn't, Scarlet… sorry to disappoint you!” I emitted bluntly, clearly making a mockery of her right before everyone. “If she isn't dead as you say, then where is she?” Just as Scarlet questioned, the door to the hall creaked open, followed by intense footsteps and just then, she surfaced. “I am right here, Scarlet!” She sneered, staring at Scarlet. Everyone began to mumble amongst themselves again. This time, it was intense. The air was thick with tension, and Scarlet stood in the centre, her face a frozen mask of shock. Her eyes bulged, wide with disbelief, as if she had just seen a ghost."No! You are dead!" she screamed, her voice cracking under the weight of her terror. It was clear she couldn't understand the reality of the maid standing before her, the very maid she believed she had killed.The maid, standing tall and defiant, allowed a smirk to play on h
Elora's POV. Scarlet stood there, looking shocked and scared. She couldn't believe what was happening. Just then, the maid we had called in started to speak. Her voice was a bit shaky, but she finally had the chance to tell her story."My name is Beth," the maid began, her voice getting stronger. "I've worked as a maid in the Backwood pack for years. That morning, I woke up early to prepare breakfast for Alpha Killian and Luna Elora. But when I got to the kitchen, I froze. I saw Scarlet!" Beth's eyes locked onto Scarlet, who turned pale."She was sprinkling something into the drink, and I knew it wasn't good. In Fact, It was poison!" Beth explained, her voice steady now."You are..." Scarlet started to cut in, her voice desperate. But I stepped forward and slapped her hard, shutting her up. The sound echoed in the hall, and Scarlet looked at me with shock and fear.I turned back to Beth. "Go on," I urged.Beth took a deep breath. "I was going to leave and tell Alpha Killian what I

Killian's POV.Without thinking twice, I scooped Elora into my arms and stormed out of the pack's mansion. The guards, seeing that Bryce was dead, now came to obey me as their Alpha.Getting into the car, I turned to Beta Dayton. “Drive faster!” I commanded, and he did so.We headed to the hospital, and after a few minutes on the road, we finally arrived. She was rushed into the emergency unit, and my heart raced as I chased after them.“We'd like you to wait here, Alpha Killian. We'll take over from here,” one of the nurses urged, and I had to stop. I paced around the hallway with Dayton.My mind was restless. I needed to know what was wrong; I needed to find out why she had suddenly collapsed.Seconds turned into minutes and minutes into hours as I paced around the hallway, yet there was nothing. I began to lose patience, but just as I was about to storm into the emergency room, the doors opened, and the doctor walked out with ease.I ran up to him, my heart racing as I stuttered,
Killian's POVA month later...“You can't sit here all day when you know you can take back your pack today, Alpha Killian!” Beta Dayton's voice echoed in the room the second he walked in.I was facing the window with my back turned against him. It was best that way. After escaping death the night my mate was taken, I had felt nothing short of pain, regret, and anger.I wished, for a second, that I had left when Beta Dayton asked me to. Who knows, I might not have inhaled so much poison that could ruin me.Now, after a month of trying to heal myself and regain my abilities as an Alpha, I was met with the news that Elora was getting joined with Bryce at the Blackwood pack's mansion.“Alpha Killian, I know you can hear me. Don't back down today of all days like you used to. Don't make her sacrifice go in vain!” Beta Dayton said, making me furious, but I tried my best to stay calm.“Sacrifice?” I scoffed, trying to hold back tears. The memories of that night only brought back intense pain
Killian's POV.“It is over now, Alpha Killian…” Beta Dayton informed me as he walked closer to where I stood with blood splattered all over my body. I turned around and, seeing most of my pack members and guards on the ground, I couldn't help but feel bitter and angry.I was going to kill anyone who had planned this madness, no matter what. But first, I had to get my mate, Elora.“It isn't over yet, Dayton,” I declared, my voice resounding in the area. “My mate is still out there and close too. I can sense it!”“Luna Elora?” He gasped as he went down on one knee. “What should we do, Alpha Killian?” he asked, his tone urgent and filled with concern.“We find her now!” I commanded, and without hesitation, he nodded. It was just Dayton and me. Most guards were injured, so it was only right for them to stay back.We got into the car and sped away from the pack's mansion. We were heading toward the Ocean pack first when I sensed it—I sensed her inner wolf calling out to me.“Stop, Dayton!”
Elora's POV.As soon as my eyes began to open, I was greeted by a thick, suffocating darkness and the sharp, metallic smell of blood filling the air.I was in a place that felt eerily familiar—where Master Kai had captured me before. But something was different now. Despite the shadows around me, I could still feel my mate nearby.“Where am I?” I whispered weakly. A sudden, sharp pain exploded at the back of my head, making me wince and jerk in agony. The memory came rushing back—how I had tried to return to the Blackwood pack, only to be struck in the head and knocked out.“Alpha Killian!” I gasped as the truth sank in. I tried to stand, but I was held back. I was tied to a chair again, unable to break free.“Who’s here now? Let me go! Please, let me go!” I begged, desperate to rescue Alpha Killian. I needed to save him from the rogues who had attacked our pack.No matter how hard I struggled, the ropes only tightened, and the pain in my head wouldn’t ease. I felt foolish, knowing m
Killian's POVThe priest walked up to me where I stood right beside Scarlet. With an ancient dagger in his grip, he smiled at me. “Your thumb, Alpha Killian,” he requested, and I stretched my hand toward him.He did the same with Scarlet. It was the oath-taking, and we had to merge our bloods to be joined. But one thing Scarlet and Chief Han didn’t know was that if an Alpha’s mind or heart isn’t set on something, it doesn’t go as planned.Standing before everyone and Scarlet, my only desire was to be with Elora, who was in the room. I had a plan—a plan to ruin the oath-taking at the final phase just to be with my dearest Elora.“You may join hands now, Alpha Killian!” The priest commanded, and reluctantly, I turned to meet Scarlet’s gaze.She was definitely happy and excited to finally think she had me in her grip. She stretched out her hand, which was bleeding, and I did the same.But just as we were about to merge the blood, the doors to the hall burst open, drawing our attention im
Elora's POV.Watching Killian walk out of the room was one thing, but knowing that I was going to be locked up and monitored for eternity felt like a gnawing fury on my nerves.My fingers ran through each strand of my hair as I paced around the room. Frustration, depression, and anger gnawed at my insides.“His mate? Was I considered his mate when he agreed to marry Scarlet? What stupidity is this? What reality of pain is this?” I panicked, my lips clenched between my teeth.I wanted to leave. I wanted to run as far away as I could from this madness, away from the scary world, away from the Blackwood pack, away from Killian!As I kept pacing back and forth in the room, my mind consumed with nothing but pain and anger, the sudden loud ringing of the bells caught my attention, making me halt briefly.“It’s happening… they are about to take the oath!” At that moment, my heart felt so heavy, like a burden had fallen on me, and I couldn’t help but feel broken.A heavy gasp of disbelief lef
Elora's POV."I let you out of my sight before, and every day of my life was hell. I am not and never letting you out of my sight this time! Never!" Alpha Killian's words echoed in my mind as I sat on the wooden bed, my eyes welling with tears.What did he mean by that? Was he serious, or was this just another one of his manipulations? My thoughts spiraled into a chaotic mess as I bit my lower lip in frustration. I stood up, pacing around the room, my heart pounding with uncertainty. I had expected something different after his guards took me away—perhaps even my death. But instead, Killian seemed... attached, more so than ever before. Clinging to me and claiming me like I was still his."Could it be that what Bryce told me was a lie? No, there's no way Bryce would lie about something like this, right?" I muttered under my breath, feeling like I was going insane as I continued to pace.Just as I tried to make sense of it all, the door creaked open, and a maid entered, bowing slightl
Killian's POV.“Alpha Killian, you called!” Beta Dayton's voice resonated through the room the second he entered, his head bowed slightly as he showed his respect to me.I paused for a second, my eyes still fixed outside the room as my back was turned to him. I tried my best to hide it, to hide my pain, but it wasn't working. It felt like I was forcing something that wasn't meant to be.Elora never wanted to return to the Blackwood pack, and I forced her to. This broke my heart so deeply, but who wouldn't want to run away after hearing their Mate is getting married to someone else?“Alpha Killian?” Beta Dayton called out again as he took a few steps closer to where I was standing. “Are you okay?” he asked, his tone tinged with concern and worry for me.Swiftly, I turned on my heels, our eyes meeting at that moment. Mine were already red because of the tears I had been holding back as much as I could.“Alpha…” he began, seeing my dead gaze fixed on him, but I cut him off. If there was
