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
“I’m sorry about that Celeste, it’s just that Calypso was my right hands’ daughter, Matthias. He requested me personally to take care of her.” Alpha Baron apologized in a low voice the moment they entered the guest room where Cassiopeia will sleep. “It’s fine Alpha, I mean I understand what you said. She’s just longing for her mother, and you’re doing her a favor. It wasn’t your fault that you have a soft heart for someone like her.” Cassiopeia shot back, she wanted to puke, she completely sounded like a fool. “Thank you for understanding my Celeste, but like what I’ve said. She won’t sleep in my room anymore, and if you want you may replace…” “I think I’ll stay here for the mean time Alpha Baron; I mean isn’t it wrong in the eyes of the pack if we will share one room? I’m not your Luna.” “Yet.” The Alpha was the one who continued. “But you will be, soon, my beautiful Celeste.” He added as he slowly removes the cloth that covers her face. Her perfect visuals greeted the Alpha, as
“W-What are you doing here Alpha?” I asked. It took him a couple of seconds to answer as he walked toward me slowly. “I’ve followed those two rouges who attack you earlier.” “Oh…” He probably saw and heard everything. “I was wondering if you mean everything you say?” He asked which made me look away. I don’t have anything to be ashamed of him right? “You should go home,” I replied instead. “So you like him?” My forehead creased, ‘why is he suddenly being like this?’ “You exactly know why am I doing this Alpha Killian, you’ve heard Hera and my conversation before right? You even said that you’ll cooperate once I’ve proven to you that I own this face. Do you remember?” I asked. Are we arguing? Really? In the middle of this dark forest, and at midnight? “Right. I should’ve kept that in mind.” He slowly nods before turning his back. I don’t know why I followed him when I should go back to the Silver Moon pack. Alpha Baron was probably in his room already, and it was a good opp
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.
