Alpha Priam was standing on a veranda with a glass of wine in his hand, when he felt someone’s presence behind him, he knew it was Bryant. “What happened to Rosa?” He asked, three days had passed, and he let his pack peacefully mourn for his death, but he won’t let this pass. “Alpha Primo found out the moment we released Luna Chantal. Rosa even called Luna’s parents whom the Alpha find suspicious.” Bryant replied. “I didn’t think he would have such a brain.” Alpha Priam replied and sipped on his wine. “He killed Rosa in front of everyone, by ripping…her throat out.” Bryant continued. “Are they still set to attack us?” The Alpha asked despite the anger built inside him with how horrendous the woman has been killed. “According to our ally, it has been postponed. The former Alpha Nickolaus and Luna Chandra of the Silver Mist don’t have any travel within this month. They’ll be staying to take care of Luna Chantal.” The Alpha's scarlet eyes glimmered as the sunlight hit them, no emo
‘There’s an idea that knocking in front of his chest but unfortunately, he can’t entertain it, his mind cannot.’Until his eyes settled on the woman carrying a bunch of paper bags among the crowds, and the Alpha of the Silver Mist pack, Primo from a few distant. His reflexes oblige with how his heart tells him to do so.“So who would be the lucky girl tonight that we will serenade huh?”“Here! My friend is interested, here!” It was Britanny’s voice, and it didn’t take him a minute to process what was going to happen next. Good thing he came on time, he grabbed Chandria’s hand before Britanny could even show the public the woman’s face, Chandria was surprised to meet the Alpha’s scarlet eyes who grabbed her hand. It was unexpected, yet there was an unfamiliar sensation within her when their skin touched.Alpha Priam pulled her against his chest. The crowd became silent, and they quickly took the spotlight. Alpha Priam made sure that Chandria’s face was slumped over his chest good enoug
In the Silver Mist pack, Alpha Primo was having his dinner in his office while his eyes were settled on the monitor of his laptop. He still can’t accept that Alpha Priam ruined his plans to attack humans, yet he’s also wondering who the woman he hugged during that time was.He was aware that the Black Stygian pack doesn’t have any Luna so he was curious if that woman would be the next Luna of his pack or the Alpha’s apple of the eye. An evil plan suddenly popped up inside his head, maybe if I could kill Alpha’s beloved then he would surrender his pack, or he will start the war without much thinking. That will lead to their defeat, and the Silver Mist pack will remain the one standing in the end.A couple of knocks break and take him back to reality.Clearing his throat, he uttered, “come in.”It was Arthur who entered his office.“Alpha…” Arthur was wearing his coat, that makes him superior above any other puppet of the Alpha. His hair was fix and firm, and his face was always in a po
“What the f*ck are you staring at?” Eyed widened, I stand up from the bench as he intimidatingly threw me a glare. It seems like he's about to burst out any minute now, his face was too red in frustration though I can't still deny the fact that he's an imitation of the God of the Moon. ‘Should I just run?’ ‘But what if I don’t meet him again?’ ‘What the hell am I thinking?’ ‘Really Cassiopeia, amidst this trouble you’ll think of that. How ridiculous?’ I wanted to slap myself for such thoughts and things happened so fast that I didn’t notice how enraged he was, he kicked the side of his tire again and again. “And what the f*ck did you just say?” He growled. “Do you even know how to fix these f*cking tires huh?” He asked pointing to his car as he moves towards me heavily. “D-Don’t come near me!” I exclaimed frightening, I slowly steps back. “You don’t understand my frustration! I Just f*cking lost a million dollars of investment!” He nagged out, he looks hopeless. I should run,
In a few seconds, he held my life. And it didn’t even take long before he slowly pulled me up, with the strength he has, I won’t doubt anymore, how he was able to do that, without any much drama. “Cassiopeia, are you alright?” My eyes darted at Mr. Smith’s worried face. “I-I’m alright, Sir.” I lied, because at that certain moment, my heart was still hammering fast, and loud. I thought I would really die. When I glance at the guy who was named Ezra, there he has the wide grin on his lips. “T-Thank you.” I managed to say, despite how our first encounter went. “You owe me one, I don’t accept such word. It wasn’t in my vocabulary.” His evil grin faltered and was replace by a cold one before he turns his back and started walking away. “Ezra, let’s talk.” Mr. Smith stops him, yet the latter didn’t bother to shoot a glance. ‘Though I’m still thinking if they were really father and son.’ ‘It was such a small world right?’ “I know I lost the big investment last night, but I won’t be so
“Did you just slap me?” She asked unbelievably with her eyes wide, and anger was clearly visible on it. Even I was suddenly stunned at what I just did, “I-I’m so…” I couldn’t finish my words when she slaps me back, a bit hard that threw my face to the side. I tasted blood on the side of my lips. “How dare you slap me?” Her voice was menacing, and this time my guilt vanished and was replaced by the anger remembering how she insulted me earlier. “I may be a wolf less, but let me remind you again… I have royal blood in me, my father is a former Alpha of the pack, and with that, I could lead the pack as I witness how my father put the pack at the highest spot.” I bravely countered. “Huh, you seemingly forgot to mention how ugly your face was…” She shot back mockingly, as she slowly steps forward, I didn’t move and met her glaring gaze. “That doesn’t have to deal with how I’ll be able to responsibly lead the pack, Calypso,” I replied. “Well, yeah you got a point with that but… will A
Startling at the huge man who suddenly blocked my vision, embarrassment fills my sanity seeing the man I was looking for right in front of me. “Again, why are you following me?” He sternly asked, his blank face remaining as it is, gone is the playful one, and I’d rather see the latter than him being this serious. “I-I wasn’t…” “You can’t fool me.” He quickly cut me off before turning around, not saying a word after that. “H-Hey wait…” ‘Damn Cassiopeia, why did you even call him?’ He didn’t stop walking so I followed him, and exclaimed, the words I hadn’t said that day. Maybe I did, but not a genuine one or it automatically slips from my lips without thinking that he really saved my life. “Thank you, Ezra.” His name was quite strange when it escapes from my lips, and it made him stop moving. “Didn’t I tell you that I don’t accept such words? Time will come that you must give me back that favor.” He started walking out after saying those words. If he says so, then be it. I just
The conversation last night between Calypso and Alpha Baron forbids me to sleep last night after what I heard. I tried to distract myself by packing all my things, but still, Alpha Baron’s words kept repeating at the back of my head. He’s up for my wealth, and in the end, it was Calypso who’ll choose. That was his f*cking plan, and I almost fell on it if I didn’t have the opportunity to eavesdrop on their conversation, then probably I will end up being rejected and killed in the end. But now that I got to know his plans, I will counter them even if the last option I have in mind will put my life at risk. “Cassiopeia, we will be leaving.” A couple of knocks followed by Ben’s voice ruined my thoughts. “I’m ready,” I replied and grab my baggage in my left hand as I head my way out of the room. Alpha Baron, Calypso, Ben, and Draco if I’m not mistaken were already waiting for me in the lobby area. Alpha Baron was seating with a newspaper in his hand, while Calypso drinking wine with a
The Black Stygian packs were in complete serenity as midnight comes, only the sound of the trees crashing to each other as the wind pass by. Everyone was resting aside from Rosa who was looking at the moon brightly.“I thought you’ll be leaving the pack in no time. What happened.” A gorgeous man walks towards her, his scarlet eyes reflected with the help of the light of the moon.It wasn’t a question, but rather a sentence full of doubt, and only a confirmation and explanation from her will ease it.“I changed my mind.” Rosa bit her lip before drinking the wine in her left hand, her trembling numbness didn’t escape from Alpha Priam’s peripheral.“I wonder why. Was it because you don’t have the passport now, and can’t leave the country, as you gave it to her, to escape.”Rosa was stunned but not surprised anymore, the Alpha was smart enough. But she still tried to cover her anxiousness with a fake smile.“What are you talking about Alpha Priam? Of course, it was in my drawer, I just th
“Dad!” I watched Ezra run toward the dead Mr. Smith while I was still stunned and in disbelief at what was happening right before my eyes.People started to get out of their rooms and started feasting on the horrendous scene. Though some tried to call for help using their mobile phones. My eyes then fixed on the man who used to be very tough when I met, the man you won’t expect would shed tears. But right now, all I could see is the man who was a loving son to his father, I know despite those harsh words from him was the fact that he was trying to get his father’s attention. Even though he’s human, I am aware that in their world, if you are wealthy like them, you’ll be deprived of your parent's love since they were busy managing their business. My father told me that, but I’m lucky that my father showered me with his love despite how busy he is as the Alpha of our pack. And speaking of my father…I suddenly remembered that exact day, my twenty-first birthday which turned out to be the
It was like a bomb exploded in front of our faces. Celestine hurriedly down the pack while I was left alone in here, I wanted to run too. I wanted to see her, but my legs won’t let me. Until I just found myself lying on the floor as I stare at the pack and a group of Alpha Priam’s men who carries lifeless bodies. My heart wrenched at the sight, and my body was getting numb. Cries… Agony. The night was filled with it, while I’m here helpless, and can’t do a thing, rather let the tears freely cascade down my cheeks. I still remember how Rosa helps me, how she let me escape this cruel faith of mine. The last time we see each other was when we were in a car that was supposed to be Chantal’s day of the abduction. She let me borrow her identity and live the life that she’s been dreaming of. I stole the time from her, and it’s frustrating to think that she wasn’t able to do what she wants because of me. I closed my eyes, I felt like I lost a mother. It was tormenting. Until sunrise, I di
“O-Oh, that is…” Chantal gave the man a meaningful look, and the latter seemed to understand it. “A-Alpha Primo, you’re back! That is… completely nothing.” The man was the one who continued. “What do you mean nothing? Do you think I’m a fool?” Alpha Primo shot back. He didn’t seem to like how the two were acting. “The thing is, L-Luna Chantal here wants to look for the missing rouges. I stopped her when I saw her almost enter the dangerous forest where the rouges probably went and L-Luna Chantal…”“told me to not tell everyone about it, especially you, because you might be worried,” he continued. “Y-Yeah that’s right, Alpha. And why didn’t you tell me that you'd be back today? You should’ve sent me a message…” “I’ll come back to my pack whenever I want, Luna Chantal.” He replied firmly, completely shutting the conversation. “Y-You should go ahead, your family must be waiting for you.” Chantal shifted her gaze to the man and faked a smile. “I-I’ll be leaving Alpha, Luna.” He bow
Priam? Then he was the one who saved me from those rouges. “He has scarlet eyes…” I couldn’t help but comment. “According to Celestine, there’s a reason why his eye color is like that.” The servant retaliated. “By any chance, is there someone with the same eye color as him in your pack?” “No one, Luna.” “Let’s go, the ceremony will end soon.” She added and gently dragged me out of that place, but my mind was still captivated by the fact that Alpha Primo killed his father. Until we reached the house made of expensive woods and luxurious-looking interior design, my guilt was still haunting me.“Luna Chantal…” I bit my lip as I was called by her name again. “I-I am not…” Not able to finish my words, my eyes slowly widened when three men entered the house. “W-what are you doing? Where are you taking me?” I anxiously asked when they started handcuffing me. Priam came in from the front door with eyes as cold as ice. “Bring her to the center of the training ground.” What? “W-Wh
The heat of the sunlight strikes my face which forces me to open my eyes. The familiar ceiling greeted me, it was my room. Getting up when a couple of images flash back into my memory. ‘Was it all just a dream?’ Wearing my slipper, I hurried to the toilet and look myself in the mirror. My hope slowly dispersed as I saw my scarred face visibly, gone is the beautiful woman I saw last night. Maybe everything was just really a dream. But what bothers me is the fact that Baron and Calypso killed me, was it also just a dream? A nightmare perhaps, it feels real, like everything happened before my eyes. The rebirth thing feels substantial, though does it occur in real life? Damn this is so confusing. I jumped off out of fright when three knocks ruined the silence of the room, taking me back from my thoughts. “W-Who’s there?” I asked as I walk towards the closed door. “The Alpha wants to see you, Cassiopeia.” It was a familiar voice of Matthias. “W-Why?” That’s the only word that came o
But to the Alpha’s surprise, Chandria slowly stands up even though she’s having a hard time walking with her injured left leg. The Alpha tried to maintain his composure and looks unbothered, it took time before Chandria reach her…“What do you think you’re doing…” He wasn’t able to finish his sentence when Chandria started kneeling in front of him, and her tears slowly glistened as it cascades down her cheeks. “P-Please Alpha, d-don’t hurt Chantal.” In the middle of their flight, there’s this woman injured kneeling in front of the Alpha, crying and begging for her sister’s life. “Please leave Chantal alone, you can do anything to me, make me your slave…”“No.” Alpha Priam’s firm voice was in finality. “Can you bring back my father’s life?” The Alpha suddenly asked, and the woman look at him with her pitiful eyes. It was full of concern and fear, based on Alpha’s observation. The woman loves her sister even though the latter treated her badly. “If you can do that… then I’ll spare
The darkroom slowly ate me as they threw me inside. I quickly flinched and tried to talk to them when I heard the sound of the keys locking me up. The greasy bars greeted me, as I watch them walk away, leaving me dumbfounded and clueless about what was happening.“Get me out of here!”“I wanted to talk to Alpha Primo! Please, let me talk to him!”“I-I’m begging you.”Until my voice slowly left me, my knees plunged onto the rough ground, frailed. What just happened?Minutes ago, my heart was full of happiness and hope, having Alpha Primo around me. Thinking that later, I’ll be his chosen Luna, and life will be easier for me, starting that moment. But what’s this? Why is this chaos happening all at once? I never saw this coming. I never see myself behind these bars where criminals end up when I didn’t even do something wrong.Why are they saying that I attempted to kill my twin sister? Where the hell did they get that? Was it even possible on my part?Then, Alpha Primo, why did he act l
Waiting for darkness to fully took the light feels like I’m waiting for the end of the world right now. “If you’re lying then, you deserve the most severe punishment.” I was taken aback when Alpha Killian’s voice interrupted my thoughts. “Death.” I quickly look away and put back my gaze at the sunset. This is my only chance to prove that I was Cassiopeia. As his condition states that he wants to see my face changed. If not, then I’m doomed. And I would lose my chance to get back to my pack or seek help against the Alpha’s plans. It was just the two of us here and it was kinda awkward for both of us. “W-Why didn’t you even let Hera come with us?” I wanted to slap myself for voicing it out, it supposedly stayed in my mind. “So I could kill you if you’re lying.” He quickly retorted making me shiver in fear with how he delivered it. I stand up and walk toward the ocean, like how these waves move back and forth in rhythm, I also hope that this time everything will be on my side. Or a
