“W-What?” I asked unbelievably, and Hera glanced at me when my voice rose.“I-I mean…aren’t we clear yet with our plans, Alpha Killian?” This time lowering down my voice. We’re in front of all these delicious dishes yet our conversation doesn’t seem to go along the way.“You sure that we’re clear with our goal in the first place? Or you’re hoping deep inside of that heart of yours that the Alpha would fall in love with you, and so once you became her Luna, you’ll have the happy ending you wanted, and that the pack will treat you nicely this time. That’s it right? It wasn’t all about the future Cassiopeia, who cares about the future? Who cares about the prophecy? You have the face that you wanted now, and you could change your fate if you wanted to …So stop pretending that you care…”SLAP!I didn’t let Alpha Killian finish his sentence as my palms automatically landed on his cheeks. It was an outburst of emotion because I can’t believe he see me that way, and despite all the risky step
Alpha Baron was staring blankly at the moon above, while waiting for the midnight to come. He had a hard time sleeping last night, after he met Celeste, the beautiful woman’s name can’t get rid off of his mind, and even her angelic face. He wants her, no, he needs her by his side.“Alpha Baron? A penny for your thoughts?” Calypso snap her fingers in front of the Alpha just to get his attention.The Alpha throw her a cold glance that made her be seated straight.“W-What’s wrong Alpha?” Calypso asked ignoring the glare that the Alpha was giving her.“The second time you did that, I’ll cut those fingers of yours.” Alpha Baron menaced disregarding Calypso’s questione.“A-Alpha… tomorrow is the proclamation of your chosen Luna.”“Leave, Calypso… I still have a few things to do tonight.”“B-But Alpha….”“Will you leave or I will leave?”Calypso pursed her lips and slowly stands up from the seat. She tried to look the Alpha in his eyes, but she saw nothing, it was pure blank, the opposite of
The fingers of the Alpha have a tight grip on her neck, and Calypso cannot believe that it’s all happening now.“A-Alpha Baron…” Calypso tries to call the Alpha because when the color of the eyes of the Alpha changed, it means he cannot be tamed, and it might be the end of her.But to her surprise, the Alpha slowly loosen the grip and let her fall on the marbled floor, as Calypso tried to gasp for oxygen.“Leave now before my vision gets darkened at you, Calypso.” The Alpha turned his back, giving the woman chance to leave the room.“Alpha Baron, you know that you cannot just lose me, right? We’ve come this far, I even obeyed your orders, even if it involves killing the former Alpha because that’s how I love you, and you promise me that position. My father is your right hand, and you know that he plays a vital part in this pack as he could foresee the prophecy. Don’t tell me that you’ll choose Cassiopeia over me. You’ve been clear the day in Chicago before our flight back here, that y
“W-What? No!” Alpha Baron exclaimed, and he run towards the woman, and wrapped her in his arms, from behind. “She’s just a good acquaintance, Celeste.” He whispered next to her ears. A vicious smile escapes her lips, but that last for a few seconds only. As her tears kept on dripping down her cheeks, it was Cassiopeia’s moment to get the Alpha’s empathy and to see if it will work. So she could do her next step. “I left our home, Alpha Baron.” She utters within her sobs, making it more authentic and sound hurting. “W-What? Why?” “But it’s alright I could take care of you Celeste, you are welcome in my pack.” He shot back. “T-They don’t want me to visit the forest anymore, they thought I’m losing my sanity as I’ve mentioned about you a few times to them, telling me that you’re not existing at all. I told them, that I…like you and I want to be with you.” Cassiopeia’s voice breaks making it more pitiful for the Alpha Baron. “Celeste, you’re making me insane. Did I hear it right? Y-
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 at leas
The pair of crimson eyes were glimmering in darkness as it comes closer to me. And I don’t think I could still run from him because I almost used my energy already. He growled before motioning an attack toward me, and I have left no choice but to close my eyes waiting for the pain to penetrate my skin. But nothing came in, and when I opened my eyes a familiar blank face greeted me. He was on his human form now, and fully naked. I quickly look away, and I could feel my cheeks red. I slowly remove the thin cloth that covers my face and handed it to him. I mean it’s not that big deal to see them naked after their shift, but I wasn’t comfortable with it. “A-Alpha Killian,” I called him. “You may look at me now, Cassiopeia.” Sighing in relief, I move my gaze at him. “You shouldn’t have startled me that way,” I commented. “Where are you currently heading Cassiopeia? It’s too dangerous for you, especially since your scars are gone.” He firmly asked instead. That’s when I remembered w
“Get your hands off her!” Someone from behind suddenly exclaimed that taking both of our attention.And when I shift my gaze at them, there are about ten unfamiliar faces. I noticed the necklace they were wearing, it was a black half moon.“This is none of your business.” Alpha Baron bravely answered as his eyes started to turn golden again. I gulped, don’t tell me he’ll fight this group of werewolves. Even though he was strong, he could be outnumbered by them easily.“It is indeed our business. You’re inside our territory.” A calm baritone voice yet menacing erupted, and a man wearing the same necklace walked in front. But I could sense dominance making him stand out among them. He’s probably the Alpha.But what? This is their territory already? Did I run that far that I didn’t notice the boundary that kept the pack separate from each other?“Leave that girl alone.” He continued.A moment of silence fills the air.And when I glance at Alpha Baron, he was staring at me. Or more of li
A couple of seconds passed by as Cassiopeia waits for the Alpha’s final word. She’s weighing the depth of stares he was giving her. Though she was unsure if the Alpha would agree, but she must take the risk. It’s better this way so she won’t problematize her scars when daylight comes, if ever the Alpha agrees with her rules. Nevertheless, she doesn’t trust him. Not even an inch.“Of course, is that all?” The Alpha suddenly asked and gave her a look that it wasn’t that big deal, very opposite to what she expects he’ll react. “Is that fine with you? Won’t you ask for more information about it?” Cassiopeia asked back toward the man. “Anything for you, Celeste. Despite how curious I was, I won’t asked more until you tell the whole story voluntarily. I respect your privacy.” Alpha Baron replied which made her smirk a little. “I’ll also buy you the most expensive and beautiful mask, appropriate for your gorgeous face.” “So if you’ll let me, I’ll bring you to your new home now.” Alpha Bar
