“H-How…” “How did I know your name?” She cut me off continuing the question I had in mind. “I just knew.” She winks at me before shifting her gaze at the Alpha. “The Alpha will bring you to your room Cassiopeia.” She added before throwing a firm glare at the man when the latter’s forehead creased in disapproval. “You shouldn’t have acted that way, Alpha Killian. She’s the she-wolf in the prophecy…” Hera whispered yet still loud enough for me to hear. My face crumpled hearing that thing again and again. “We will talk tomorrow Cassiopeia. You should rest.” Hera faced me once again before she bowed her head and leave. Even the Alpha’s men followed her and only Alpha Killian, and me were left. It was an awkward silence for a minute before he decided to break it with a fake cough. “This way.” He calmly leads the way but why do I feel like he’s embarrassed when I witnessed how Hera treated her? But then I just disregard it and followed him. “How did Hera find out about my name?” I
“I said let me go!” I scream at the top of my lungs but this assh*le doesn’t seem to hear my tantrums. Until he finally let go of my hands and I fell onto the floor because I wasn’t prepared for it. I kneeled just to get up but I stopped moving when a pair of shoes stand by in front of me. “We have an intruder, Alpha Killian. I caught her spying on the fight. She’s claiming to be the she-wolf in the prophecy.” The man reported and I only glared at him. When I tried to meet the Alpha’s gaze he was back on his blank face. “Who are you?” He asked. “I am Cassiopeia.” My eyes automatically closed as I heard waves of laughter after saying those words as I had just spit the funniest joke they’d ever heard. Aside from the Alpha, everyone laughed. “Don’t fool me.” The Alpha retorted. “Cassiopeia isn’t in her room Alpha Killian!” One of his men exclaimed as he was chasing his breath to gasp for air. I can’t blame him though, my room was quite far from this training ground. Well, he sho
“Enough!” The tension slowly dies when Hera breaks their conversation. “Alpha Baron, you came here unannounced. I know you are fully aware that there is a rule.” She calmly continued. I couldn’t trace any hint of hearing in her face. “And I’m clear since the beginning of my motive. I’ll bring that woman home.” Alpha Baron replied firmly. “Unfortunately, we let her go this morning because she asks for her freedom. I hope you understand that simple sentence. Even a three-year-old kid would understand that, so please don’t make it complicated for all of us here.” Hera retaliated in full of conviction. She knew that Alpha Killian can’t speak nicely and if she didn’t interrupt their intense conversation then probably a war has occurred already. “I believe that Hera was telling the truth, after all, she’s the most respected member of this pack.” It sounds like an insult to Alpha Killian that’s why when I shift my gaze at him, I notice how Hera was holding his arm tightly. “Well then, I’
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
“I’m here to apologize for my behavior last night, Cassiopeia.” Alpha Killian started walking toward me red-faced.“I just thought you were tricking.” He added before handing me the flowers in his hands.“I’m deeply sorry. I was wrong. I almost kill you. ”I bit my lip, forbidding myself to let out a small smile. Because that’s not my concern right now, I was still stunned to hear Alpha Killian apologize sincerely. In addition to that, he gave me flowers and this is the very first time I receive flowers.“D-Don’t mind it.”“As a peace offering, I have prepared a small welcome party for you tonight.”That made my jaw drop.“Welcome party?”“Yes. I’ve ordered someone to buy you a dress from the market nearby, and she’ll be here soon.”“I mean I don’t think that’s necessary Alpha Killian.” I tried my best not to sound rude or offend him because I could see how guilty he was.“These flowers are already enough Alpha,” I added and smiled.“Are you sure?” He asked worriedly.And I slowly nod
It’s been two days since the night that I’ve been bothered by the probability that Alpha Killian is my mate. I’ve been avoiding him since that day. I mean it’s impossible. I don’t have a wolf yet, how could I feel that string of the mate bond? I was probably assuming things.“Cassiopeia?” Taken aback when I heard Hera’s voice from outside,“C-Come in.” I tried to calm myself and focus on packing my things.“Are you ready? The pack will send you near the Silver Moon’s territory only, no one from your pack should see you being brought by one of us.” Hera uttered as she entered the room.“It’s alright Hera, I knew the forest near our pack well. You don’t have to worry that much.” I replied and gave her an assuring smile.“Can you visit me once a week? I’ll miss you.” She uttered, I pouted and walk towards her. I opened my arms widely and hug her.“Let’s not get too dramatic here, Hera. Don’t worry if there’s a good opportunity to leave the pack without them noticing. I’ll visit you.”“Al
“Perfect then, I’ll bring you two into a business trip in New Orleans in the U.S tomorrow.”“W-What? What’s with the sudden trip? I mean since when our pack will enter the business?” I asked, and I bit my lip when Alpha Baron’s face darkened.“You aren’t my Luna yet but you are asking that much already.” He retaliated.“I-I’m sorry, it’s just that isn’t it a bit risky for our pack…”“Cassiopeia, if you want this pack to remain on top, then you should trust me. We have to take investments from businessmen.”“You mean humans?” “We will socialize with humans?” I asked unbelievably.“Yes, but partly no, there are packs in that country who were as rich as we do. Some were even billionaires, and I couldn’t let our pack be on the last on the list, Cassiopeia. We’ll get there to close deals, and invest. Like how other Alpha’s manage and grow their wealth.” He explained briefly, it sounded good to me. But my father didn’t take that step and didn’t go that far just to be as great as he became
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 why I am
