Rejected By The Alpha, Cursed By The Moon Goddess Chapter 53
Lyra's POV “Hey, get over here,” I heard a guard yell. “I see something over here,” another yelled. I was glad at how everything turned out, especially when Xavier decided to be a wolf and not a chicken about his decisions. I had done my part, and it was up to Rune to take over the baton. “Do you think you did the right thing?” Selene asked. “What?” I asked, feigning ignorance over the whole matter. “Oh, come on,” she growled. Of course, I did the right thing; I was present the whole time. He was with me, and if there should be alibis or witnesses, I would have stepped out for him. But it turns out that Rune decided not to call for that in court. I did have a job to commit to, no matter how much I hated it. It was a condition for my acceptance into the pack. I had learned the skill long before joining the pack. And I still had to go to the couture; Laila still had no idea of me being promoted. If that can be called a promotion in itself. “Oh, shit,” I mu

Lyra's POVI hated the interruption that Lucas caused, but that was far too little. It was nothing compared to the shock that lay in store for me.After Xavier helped me, I muttered, “What the fuck?”This was the most awkward, funny, and annoying situation I have ever found myself in.We walked all the way to the throne room, where the guests were kept waiting.The doors swung open, and a huge wave of familiarity hit me.I might have fought to forge a lot of things concerning my life before being one with the pack.I might have forgotten some things without even moving a muscle, but I could never forget that insignia.But that was not even the cause of my outburst. It was who came bearing that insignia.Apparently, all wolf packs have their insignia, their symbol that sets them apart from others.“The insignia for the Darkmoon Pack is a symbol of their unity and strength,” Lucas said when I was still studying up on the pack.I still remember the insignia. It features a crescent moon w

Xavier's POVLucas was a pain in the ass. I wondered what made him interrupt such a moment.“This had better be worth it!” I thought.I waited until the door to the entrance of the roof was shut before I turned to her.“Let me see what that is about. It must be important for him to barge in and interrupt us like this.”“Excuse me,” I said as I lifted her slowly and carefully from the edge.I felt her muscles stiffen, but they relaxed as quickly as they had stiffened as I drew her over.“It’s no big deal. I have other things to do,” she said. “I just have to check my schedule and see what fits.”I hated for her to leave the way she did.I had an idea.“Wait, come with me. Let us see what this important person or thing is.”We walked down the stairs and towards the court.I tried to recall if I had any pre-arranged plans to meet anyone, but I could not recall anything.Lyra had been part of me, our souls entwined together as one already.We got into the court, and I could see her reacti

Lyra's POVI have had enough.Enough of everything and everyone.It was one thing being at the receiving end, and it was another thing watching him display his arrogance in all his glory.Truth be told, I was relieved when our time together ended, and it was wonderful.I remember how I watched him in fear.“Luca, what is happening?” I asked.It was something I had never seen before.“Why bother?” he chuckled. “It’s not like you are not with me.”“Huh?”“How don’t you see it, Lyra?” he continued.“You do not know what you are?”“I must be crazy,” I remember saying that night. That was the next logical explanation for what I was going through.I mean, I had a man morph into a wolf right before me.It was something I had read about in books and watched in movies.They were mostly romantic and less scary than it was in real life.Take it from someone who has experienced this firsthand.“You might be scared, traumatized even, but don’t worry. It will make sense soon enough.”“This!” I said

Lyra's POVIt took a while before I opened up to him, and those times seemed to be the happiest of my life.We had our differences, but they never lasted long enough to tear us apart.“What are we doing here?” I remember asking the very first time he took me out.It was a grove with a stream of water running beside it.Basically, when he said he would love to take me out, I had assumed or imagined it being a classic dinner date.To my surprise, he brought me to that grove.“Don't you like it?” he said.But I did, it was not what I expected.“Oh no, it’s wonderful, nice and beautiful even, it’s unlike anything I have ever seen,” I said.“No one has ever done this for me,” I added.The smile he gave added to my joy that day as we spent the whole day in the warm sun and lying on soft flowers.The stream gushed and created calm, soothing sounds that enhanced the serenity of the atmosphere.We had taken out our picnic and spread it on the tablecloth that lay on the floor.“You do know you

Lyra's POVEverything was going well and according to plan. Just like I intended, just like I wanted.Everyone seated at the table took their time to process. I did not expect them to actually remember me or anything about me; after all, I was the rejected mate, with little or no relevance to their lives.Xavier didn’t seem to get it, and I was not ready to explain to anyone. Luca still had his mouth hanging open.“Come on now, dear alpha, you are alpha now, aren’t you?” I asked, putting a stress on the “you are.”“Do you both know each other?” Xavier asked, still looking confused.No one responded. I had said I was not in the mood for explaining anything at all. Xavier’s patience wore off quickly.“Will somebody respond to me and give an answer to my question?” he barked.I was taken aback; probably, that was all I needed to come back to the present. I looked around the table at everyone. I was just noticing the damage I had done. Xavier's voice was strong enough to put Luca back to

Lyra's POV“Yes,” I responded. “Definitely. I just had bad sushi,” I said, hoping he bought it.“Yeah, right. I know how these things can be. I suffer from this occasionally,” he responded.I chuckled. “I leave you to it,” he said. “Get well soon, ma’am,” he added.Merchandise was sold, and he bought it.“What a gentleman, gentle ... wolf, gentle… whatever,” I said, focusing my attention back on Nikolai.“You have a lot of explaining to do, but first, let’s get you out of here,” I said, bending over to help him up.He raised his index finger, signaling me to wait as he bent his head back into the toilet and vomited again.“That’s going to be a problem,” I said.“I do hope you have werewolf strength already,” I said to Selene.“Hold on while I contact customer care to see if you have purchased this package…” she said. “Of course you do. What do you think this is, a video game?”“Apparently, you have learned more from me than cocaine. You’ve learned sarcasm!”“Obviously,” she responded.

Lyra's POVI was still sleepy, but this feeling that I had something important to attend to woke me up.I stared at the ceiling for about an hour, thinking about what it was. It wasn’t until I heard deep breaths from the same room where I was that I realized what it was.Nikolai!!!I jumped out of bed like a triggered frog—an odd illustration, but it’s the truth.I wondered deeply what could have brought him into this state.“God, I wish Rune was here!” I muttered. He always had a way to make things easier, especially things like this.“How did he do last night?” I asked Selene, who had been keeping watch.“Slept soundly, jerked a couple of times, but asides that, all is well.”“That’s wonderful, but he is still unconscious,” I said.His wounds had healed and no longer opened like they did yesterday; his breathing had steadied, and that was wonderful.I turned, sighing. I was tired and couldn’t for the life of me figure out why.“Try cleaning up,” Selene advised.I took that advice an

Lyra's POVThe ground rumbled for a few seconds and opened wide, taking a large part of the rogues inside it. I saw Nikolai's corpse falling in too, but there was nothing that I could do.“Where is he?” I asked without wasting any more time.I turned back and ran, leading Rune to where Xavier lay.The remaining rogues who were there still ran after us, but they were the least of my problems.I just wanted Xavier alive and well.We got to where he was. “Rune? Is that you?” Xavier asked.“Of course, it is me,” Rune called out to him, while his grimoire flew closely.“Lyra, there is a spell here, but the ingredients and the time for this spell are impossible to get and prepare.”“Well, not for me, but given the time and the availability of these materials, I am sorry; there is nothing that we can do!” he said to me.“Do something!”The rogues had already caught up to us and were coming closer and closer.“Hold!” Rune said to me.“That should be able to hold them.” A protective form of li

Lyra's POV“You bastard," I said, slapping him across the face. “You did this. This is all your fault. After all that I have done for you, this is how you decide to pay me back?”“By betraying me? I should take your life right here and now, and there would be nothing that would happen.”“Do that, please,” he said, bleeding seriously from his shoulder; he was not healing.“The poison has got to you badly, has it not?” I asked him, and he shook his head.I thought he had healed from the poison Lucas injected him with, but I was wrong.That bastard strikes and wins again, with Nikolai.“Akira asked me to protect you…”I saw the shock in his eyes. “And that, I swear, I am going to do!”He was teary; his eyes were saddled with regrets. I could see that he was willing to turn back the hands of time just to correct the mistakes he had made before.“That is too late. There is nothing that you can do now. I am still holding on to tell you some things.”“Even if you figure something out, that w

Lyra's POVThere was something uncomfortable on my face. I was too weak to open my eyes, and for some reason, I felt oddly comfortable where I lay. I didn’t want to move a muscle, but the crawling sensation grew worse, becoming unbearable.I tried to brush whatever it was away with my hands, but it was no use. I had to open my eyes. My heart leapt when they finally came into contact with the green leaves hanging and swinging freely above me.The tingling sensation I felt was from a spider trying to weave a web on my face. I remembered why I was here.I could hear thunder and sizzling sounds nearby, and I knew something was happening. Random screams and shouts echoed around me. I realized people were getting hit, and the moment I thought of who might be on the receiving end, I summoned every last bit of strength I had to stand and fight.As I made my way through the bushes, I began to wonder who was fighting. “Nikolai?” I thought in disbelief. There was no way he could have done this.

Xavier's POV“How?” he said, laughing. “I do my study. Not everyone has to tell you everything,” he added with a smirk.“It’s not every day you see a three-tailed wolf laying around at her initiation ceremony.”Pity filled me as I recalled all the times I should have been there for her. But it was too late to turn back now. If I had one wish, it would be to go back and support her then.“Of course, I knew what that meant,” he said, taking a step forward. “I and Lyra have history.”“Remember that one time you subjected me to the human realm, forcing me to live amongst them for over a century? Yes, that one time. I obeyed, and it turned out not to be as bad as I expected.”“It was wonderful. She was one of the reasons—I loved her dearly.”“She didn’t give me a chance anyway, and my punishment was nearing its completion. I was going to make my move until you cut me off.”“I mean, you brought her back to me…”He must have seen the confusion in my eyes. “Oh… I understand how confusing that

Xavier's POVI had heard enough from Rune. I could have found ways to shut him up if this were not true and if he had not just been to hell and back. His explanations gave logical reasons for everything I experienced the very first day I came in contact with Lyra. It could also explain why Ozed was skeptical about me touching her that night and why I felt attracted to her.But there was a catch: if all that Rune had said were true, I was yet to see her as my mate. She was still with her exes, as far as I knew, and I did not want to ruin whatever we had going on between us. I trusted Rune, but this was a significant risk to take. But first, I needed to get to Lyra.He was still speaking when I felt something strange. Whatever it was, I could feel it, and it felt familiar. I needed to get to her.I impulsively entered the bushy road without consulting Rune. This was one of those times I fully trusted my instincts and whatever I felt.“You feel that too?” I asked.He responded in the a

Rune's POVI had been through hell and back, and today felt like the worst of it. I was certain this was the least that could happen to me.I opened my eyes to see Xavier looming over me, his face a mix of concern and confusion. He was calling my name repeatedly, but I was just as lost as I had been moments ago. Where was I? What was happening?As my surroundings came into focus, I realized I was in Kayla's room. I struggled to piece together how I got there, my mind still foggy. Xavier's urgent voice was a constant in my ears, shaking me as if he could rattle the answers out of me.“Rune,” he called again, and I felt a surge of irritation. The pounding in my head was growing unbearable. Just as I was about to respond, an unexpected sneeze overtook me. It felt like a reset button—my heart kicked back to life, and memories flooded my mind.“I remember trying to...” I began, but the thoughts were jumbled, causing a splitting headache. I could barely differentiate between past and presen

Xavier's POVThane quickly noticed my sour mood. “Do not mind me…” I began, but the sounds returned, and this time I was sure something else was in the room with us. I turned to check on Rune and saw he was still asleep. I followed the movement behind the headrest. It was fast—definitely not a rat; they wouldn’t survive long in this meticulously clean manor.The sound moved to the closet. I opened the door and found it—Rune's grimoire. “You sneaky tome!” I chuckled, mentally exhausted. I fell back onto the bed, trying to catch my breath.“Wait…” A bright idea struck me. We didn’t actually need Lyra; I just needed the grimoire.“Your master is sick and not himself,” I told it. The book pulsed with a glow, responding, but I couldn’t understand its message.“Yeah, yeah,” I muttered, still unsure how to communicate. The one who could explain everything was unconscious, and I couldn’t risk waking him without facing repercussions.The grimoire pulsed again. I tore open the bag containin

Xavier's POVI needed to handle this matter wisely. Something was going on, and I had to get to the bottom of it. Rune had become audacious. I knew he was bold, but today felt different. He was embittered, fueled by every negative energy I could think of. This wasn’t the Rune who stood for the right things.I had no one to blame but myself. I left him to whatever had changed him. “Lyra was right,” I sighed. I needed to know what was wrong with Rune and, most importantly, if the one I held in my hands was truly him. This was a serious debate in my mind. Certain signs made me believe this was Rune, while others made me doubt. He had knowledge no one else could have about me. He was my right-hand man for a reason, privy to my deepest fears. He was a magic user, and the spells he cast were ones I had seen him use before. But the fact that he couldn’t heal as quickly as usual threw me off. He was a wolf, after all.“Why do I even bother?” I groaned. “Just don’t let him die. Whoever he

Nikolai's POV“You had better start talking!” Lyra said as she opened the door to her closet.It was a close call.She had been a good host to me all this while.Either she knew what she was up against and didn’t care, or she was just foolish to help me. Whatever the case, I was grateful.Luca came inside and saw me.I pleaded with him to spare my life. “What the hell do you want from me? I’m done with this,” I said.“I’m tired of your control and reign of terror. Have you done enough by taking my sister too?”“Just leave me alone. You have a lot of people under you, yet you cling to me like a plague.”He chuckled. “And there he goes, the little pup has begun to grow teeth and thinks it’s okay to nip at the elder wolf! The audacity,” he said, walking closer to the window.“You know Lyra is a lovely wolf,” he said. I knew he was watching her from the window. My heart skipped a beat.“Do what you want with me, but leave Lyra out of this.”“Really?” He laughed. “You think this is about
