-Asher-

I was devastated, too devastated for words by the betrayal.

"Derick how could you," the words barely escaped my lips. "You are my most trusted."

"Alpha, it's not what you think," he said earnestly, his eyes pleading. "I have never thought of betraying you. All my life, I have been faithful to you and the pack. I was lured."

I paid no heed to all he was saying. I turned to Crystal who kept gathering the sheets to cover her body.

"For how long has this been going on?" I asked.

"Asher please don't be mad," she stuttered.

"Answer the damn question, woman," I yelled at her, and she shrieked in fright.

"For months now," she said and I chuckled painfully.

"For months now," I repeated. "So under my roof, right under my nose, my supposed wife and trusted man whom I took as a friend have been sleeping with each other. Wow."

"Asher, I promise you...," Derick was saying, but the emotions I felt overwhelmed me, and not knowing what I was doing, I blindly gripped the swords of one of the g

    -Asher- The odds were all against us; we could not afford a fight with the Moonwalker pack, so while we waited for positive feedback, I prayed earnestly within.The sudden uproar from a distance made my heart jump with expectation. I already knew what was coming on us, and that there was only but a slim chance of getting away with Adonai.One of them we had sent to meet Adonai on the way with treaties returned, mauled and bloody. He staggered in and we all cornered him."What's happened," someone asked an obvious question that we all were asking."Adonai," he managed to say, spitting out blood. I waited impatiently. "He did not even let us speak when we reached them. He's coming for all of us, with rage."Those were his last words before he went limp, dead. This has just confirmed what I feared."What do we do now?" The people around look from the still body on the ground to face anxiously."Get into defense immediately," I told them, trying as much as possible to hide the fear in my

    -Aria- I was sending a signal, trusting just the connection I had felt between me and Adonai. I was not sure, deliberately did not want to agree yet that it was because he is my mate...for now.I could hear Asher pleading by my side, but I did not feel sorry for him. I have not waited all these months, enduring all I had to in Moonwalker pack, disguised as a Princess whom everyone wants dead and the risk of being dead again, just to melt at the sight of Asher begging for his life.That was all I ever lived for in this second life, and wanted.It worked, the signal. It got to Adonai and he found me. There was indeed a connection. And it was real. I decided not to dwell on that but the man looking at me now.When our eyes met, his balls shook and for a split second, our eyes seemed to be locked together and we were alone in the world.I was the first to get out of it, remembering I had a mission at hand. I immediately got into character, looking as scared as possible. Asher seemed fasc

    -Aria- I was not prepared as to what to expect when I returned to Moonwalker with Adonai. Yes, I have completed my mission of revenge successfully and even got on with my feelings for Adonai, but I had to face all the other people I had left behind who had thought I was Jasmine.I did not know if they would accept me or not, and the pack as well, as their Luna.As we approached the Pack, Adonai slipped his hand softly into mine and gave me a gentle squeeze.I looked up at him and he nodded at me assuringly as if he could sense my unrest.I took a deep breath and gave him a small smile.I was welcomed back into the palace in a quiet and unceremonious manner with eyes boring deep into my skin.I tried to ignore them all and focus on the fact that Adonai was there with me, holding my hands protectively.I avoided looking into the faces of anyone, my head lowered a bit and my gaze mostly on the floor till I got back to my room.Adonai had followed me till there and closed the door behind

    -Dante- I did not even know what to think or how to react to what's happened recently. Asher's pack had been wiped and he was one of my accomplices.I could not help wondering that he might have felt I betrayed him because I had joined in the fight.I couldn't avoid it, less be seen as a traitor. Adonai had given instructions to march on them, all because of one woman.I hissed angrily. Wiping an entire pack because of a woman? Adonai is a fool. I did not know he could be a weakling as much as this.If I were the one, I would have let it slide. No woman is worth all that. We would have channeled that war and all the resources to more better things in the economy and politics.If he badly wanted her, just go get her, what the hell?I was more pained because yet again, my plans have been ruined because of the same woman.Now it made more sense why she woke up one day and decided she did not love me anymore because the Jasmine I knew was madly in love with me.This was a different perso

    Aria- I was relieved when Dante walked away. That was another problem there. Ever since I had rejected him, he had been rudely cold and I knew he wouldn't hesitate to get rid of me, especially now that everyone knew I was not Jasmine.And also for the fact that I had tried exposing him. I had no doubts now that he was the traitor.I could only watch and listen while he accused Zafa, knowing that he was the real traitor here. I had seen him with Asher, plotting on how to take Adonai down.But I could not tell Adonai because the last time I did, he did not believe me, and he thought I was only doing that because I had other personal issues with his brother.I would have to figure out a way to protect not only myself but Adonai as well. Or at least, get him aware of the green snake in green grass who was his brother.I will have to carefully tread on that. With all I have been able to gather about Dante, he was a very cunning man who tends to get away with stuff, and I cannot afford to

    -Aria- Something was missing...there was someone I had not seen since I returned to Moonwalker, and that person was Prisca. I am sure, with the way news flies around here, that she has heard about my arrival. What I could not understand, was why she had not come to see me.We did not have any fight before I left and...Oh!Could it be that she was staying away because I am not Jasmine?I had to ask Maria if she had been seeing her around and if she was fine."I have seen her once or twice but not in the palace," Maria told me, her expression thoughtful. "If there was another person who was devastated at the news of you not being Jasmine, it would be her. You know she and Jasmine had been friends since childhood. It would be difficult for her to take it."Everything Maria had said was the truth and I should have considered that. However, while Prisca stayed with me thinking I was Jasmine, I took her as a friend, as Aria. I told Maria my thoughts. She became my friend over time while I

    -Aria-I took a deep breath as our eyes locked and walked in slowly."Where are you coming from?" He asked in a deep, commanding masculine voice casually picking stops from the dressing table and dropping them."I am not a possession which you control," I said even though my insides knew how much I loved that he did. "You don't have to know where I went to."He sighed tiredly and looked at me straight."Who would be accountable for anything that happens to you? You know how delicate things are at the moment," he pointed out reasonably. I crossed my arms over my chest, willing myself to defy him, only because I wanted to, and for the fun of it."So what now? Do you think I need your protection? I can take care of myself.""Indeed," he snorted and returned to the stuff on my table. And even that gentle movements of his were so fucking hot. How can one man be effortlessly attractive?I waited for him to say more but he remained quiet."What is your stress anyway? I am here aren't I?" I p

    -Adonai-I held Aria in my arms and felt a sense of fulfilment, holding the woman whom I Loved and who was carrying my baby.We remained in each other's embrace for a few minutes in silence, in the dark, while I stroked her hair gently."Thank you, Aria," I spoke, breaking the silence. She chuckled"And why, if I may ask? For the sex? I hope not. I'm not any one of your mistresses any more."I found that funny."Should I thank even a mistress for sex?" I asked her with creased brows."Oh right, remind me again. You are Adonai after all, the great alpha who has everyone on his beck and call. You wouldn't thank anyone because you feel entitled."I did not know if she was speaking from a heart that held a grudge or playfully, but I decided to take it as the second. Her hand was still resting on my chest when she spoke."Well that was not what I wanted to thank you for," I stated. "You are everything I needed not just in a woman but in life. Not only have you won my heart, you have broken

    -Loveth-I watched Zafa's face and it seemed what I had said was getting to him."You are right," he said and I smiled within me. "This indeed makes me look like I have placed myself in second place in Aria's life and makes you think I am fine with it, and that's because of the way I have been acting with her," he adjusted and continued. "But you are wrong to think I am doing this because I helplessly have feelings for her."My face fell at his denial."Isn't it obvious?" I pointed out. He took a few steps closer."There is something I have not told you all this while and I think it is high time you know," he said slowly in the manner that suggest he was about to reveal a secret. I looked up at him and waited expectantly. He sighed before he continued. "Aria is the chosen one. She is the one the prophecy speaks of reuniting the werewolves Kingdom and under her reign as Luna, our existence will no longer be hidden because she will find us a voice and right amongst all these packs."I b

    -Zafa-"Why haven't you taken your breakfast?" I asked Aria with a light frown when I walked into the room and realised she had not eaten her food."You lied to me," she crossed her arms across her chest. "This is a drug and not tea.""Well, would you have taken it without any stress if he had told you what it is? Besides, it's a dried herb used for tea.""It's bitter," she complained."Just a bit. Stop complaining and take it now," I picked up the cup and stretched it towards her. "You need it to enhance your health.""I'm much better now," she said stubbornly."Only I get to decide that. I am the doctor here," I pressed and she grudgingly took it.I sat on a stool and watched her. She rested back on the bed when she was done drinking."So..." I said in a bit to start a conversation."So this is your place," she commented, looking around."My humble abode. You are welcome," I said with a small smile on my face."You made me believe you were the only one of your lineage so I did not e

    - Prisca-"You...you followed me?" I stuttered. He stood up from the bed and walked towards me slowly. I moved back instinctively."Yes I did," he said casually. "I came to your house, but you were nowhere to be found, so I sat and waited for you. Where have you been?"For a brief moment, life left my body. I thought he followed me to the hideout and knew everything.Oh shit...I let out a deep breath of relief. Thank goodness."Uh...uhm," I swallowed hard. "I was just around, you know. The pack. I needed some fresh air so I went for a stroll.""So why didn't you return to the palace?" He asked further and I quickly thought of what I could say."Well," I chuckled nervously. "Just trying to escape from the tension in the palace. I mean, so much has happened in just one day so..."Adonai grunted and his eyes scrutinised me, perhaps trying to see if he could believe me or not."I had to come here because we needed to talk," he finally said. "About what's happened earlier. We are married b

    -Prisca- "Who are they?" I asked them, trying hard to keep calm."We don't know Prisca," one shrugged. "But they did not look anything like us. They looked different. Maybe werewolves from another pack."What business does Aria have with other werewolves that they came for her? Or has she been having contact outside our pack all this while? That bitch, I cursed under my breath. She always manages to escape my hands.Gosh, I hit my fist against my palm. And I was this close to getting rid of her this time. I hissed and made for the door when the men called my attention."What do we do now?" They asked and I scowled at them."Get your failure asses back home. What else is left to be done when you have lost her?""Then what about our payment?"I turned round in disbelief to face them. Had they the nerve to ask me that?"What payment?" I scoffed."For the work we did for you. You haven't paid us.""You bunch of losers are expecting payment?" I asked."We had a deal. You cannot just send

    -Prisca- Yes! My plan has finally worked. I am going to exchange marital vows with Adonai and legally be his wife.It does not count that I am impersonating Aria. He is not going to be tied to Aria in reality but to me.I sat beside him, before the crowd with my face veiled and a sly smile across my face which no one could see.A few people had suggested I take off the veil so they could behold my face but Adonai politely declined. No one pushed it, and I successfully got tied to Adonai.I had feared that Dante would have wanted to expose me because he didn't seem pleased with the plan, but he didn't.I was led to Adonai's room while the party continued in the hall. There I took off my veil and sat comfortably on his bed.He was not here yet, for he was still having some drinks with his visitors. I chuckled happily. Alas, my dream has come to pass.The door opened and I quickly adjusted. I hissed when I saw it was Ariel."What are you doing here?" I asked sharply. She did not reply b

    -Adonai-It took a while before what she said registered in my head."Are you insane?" I retorted, placing a finger on the side of my head."No, I am not," she responded confidently."How then can you say such a thing?""I am only trying to help you, alpha," she said. "Think of what the people at the table will say when you return there without a bride.""And have you thought about what it would be when they also realize that you are not Aria?""They wouldn't have to know. A bride can be veiled. You are not under any law to reveal your face to anyone. I believe that they might think that is what you want and they will respect it."I hesitated, trying hard to think about what Prisca had said. She was right. I would be seen as a fool if I returned to the people with the news of Aria eloping with another man and there would be no wedding.It would be the second time I gathered people and something ruined the ceremony."You know what, you are right. But this is just for the ceremony. You

    -Adonai- I took in a deep breath to steady myself when Maria approached me, her face strained with worry and told me Aria was nowhere to be found.I had asked her to go get her since the ceremony was about to start."What do you mean by she is nowhere to be found," I asked, my voice in a low whisper so the people at my table would not hear."Even I don't understand myself," Maria said. "But she is not in her room and no one seems to have seen her."No, this cannot be happening now. I braced myself and tried to remain calm."Uhm, gentlemen, I will be right back," I addressed the men at my table."Is everything fine?" Dominick asked as I excused myself and I told him all was well. All was not well at all. A few minutes to the start of my wedding the bride is nowhere to be found.I walked with long strides towards Aria's room with Maria following steadily behind me."I was wondering if she had to quickly do something outside the palace because it doesn't seem like she..." Maria trailed

    -Aria- I groaned in pain as I opened my eyes. I tried to move but discovered I couldn't, I was tied firmly to something I could not see, a pole or something.What's going on? I tried to think. The last thing I remembered was being prepared for my wedding and then strange faces appeared in my room.I looked up sharply when I realised what had happened. I was in an empty room that was void of anything normal in a location I could not fathom.I recognised the faces in the room as the ones who had walked in on me."Who are you and why did you kidnap me?" My throat was dry, as well as my voice. None of them bothered to give me an answer."Hey, say something. Who sent you?" I pushed."Keep it down Aria," a very familiar voice said. "This is not the palace where you speak anyhow you like and everyone is answerable to you.""Prisca?" I muttered under my breath but she heard."Tis me, yes," she stretched her hands out in a show of dignity. "Flesh and blood."I looked on in shock. Is this a dr

    -Aria- I was being dressed by the maids for the wedding when Adonai walked in, and they all trooped out to give us a moment."Is anything the matter?" I asked, searching his face."Not really," he replied with a small smile on his face. "I just wanted to see you."I rolled my eyes at him."You see me every day," I pointed out."Yeah," he replied with a sigh as he walked to a stool and sat in front of me, his eyes watched me tenderly."What?" I shook my head with a chuckle."You know, there is this old story we heard while growing up," he said."Okay?""That you become too excited and overwhelmed about someone or something because you are about to lose it.""Hmm." I breathed out. "Never heard about that before. But why are you talking about that? Are you thinking I might leave you?""No. I am relating it to how excited I am about getting married to you," he said and took my hand in his. "Are you ready to become Mrs. Adonai and Luna of this pack?""You think I am ready?" I threw back a
