~Xander~

I stood by the window, watching the cars that drove in and out of the large gate of the castle.

“Dear,” Mother’s voice piped behind me, and I shifted my attention away from the bustling activities below the castle.

“Are you still drinking?” Mom asked and I glanced at the bottle of liquor on the table.

“You don’t have to worry about me, Mother; I am fine,” I muttered, cupping her cheeks.

She sighed and rubbed my hairy arm.

“The elders are waiting for you in the throne room. It’s been eight years, and you’re yet to find a Luna for the people. Besides, we need an heir, too. Everyone is worried,” Mother muttered, and the smile on my face disappeared.

I narrowed my eyes and pulled my wardrobe open then picked out a shirt.

“I will wait for Elena to return.”

Mother sighed at the words she had been hearing for the past eight years.

“No one survives in that water, you said it yourself. She must be dead, she—”

“I am leaving for the meeting,” I cut her off, slipping on the sh

    ~Louisa~ “Brandon?” I scoffed and turned to take another path but he drew me back, clenching unto my arm. “Hey, let me go!” I yelled. “I have missed you, Luna; let’s get back together again; I promise to be a good boy,” he said, mischief twinkling in his dark eyes. I scowled at him, certain that there was no single ounce of repentance in him. When he didn’t relent to my warnings, I splashed the brandy on his face. The liquid got into his eyes and stung him greatly, forcing him to release me. “You scumbag, don’t you dare show up in front of me again,” I snapped at him and sent my feet into his groin. He cursed loudly and dropped to the ground, his face wrinkling in pain. “That’s for showing your disgusting face in front of me,” I muttered and blessed him with an eye-rolling slap, making him spit out blood. “And that’s for saying shit.” I grabbed a bottle of liquor and cups and went down to the place I had left Nat. As expected, she was waiting patiently for me. “

    ~Louisa~ I pushed Jason away and when I spun around, the stranger was gone. I faced Jason, filled with anger. “Are you crazy?” “Luna—” “I don’t like you!” My outburst made Kayla cringe back in shock. Jason’s lips parted and slammed together. I sighed out, trying to calm down after what he had done. “I’m sorry, Jason, I understand how you feel about me, but I don’t feel the same way for you,” I confessed. Kayla walked up to us and tried to talk me out of what I was saying but I shooed her out, standing on my words. “I don’t love you, Jason. You should find someone who does.” My heart shrank in guilt as disappointment and pain laced across his face. “Thank you for telling me the truth, Louisa,” he replied and walked away, not sparing a glance. Though I was filled with guilt for hurting him I was glad that I told him the truth before his feelings got deeper. I felt like a burden had been taken out of my heart. A hard slam on my head brought me bac

    ~Louisa~ The shrill ringtone of my phone got me groaning as I forcefully snapped my eyes open and reached out for my phone, which had been ringing for half an hour. I gasped out loudly as my mom’s name flashed across the screen. “Hello, mummy,” I muttered, sitting up on the bed. “What took you so long to answer your phone, huh? I’ve been calling for hours; I thought something bad had happened to my sweet baby. You got us all so worried that I thought I would die of heartache. Isn’t the place nice? Do you want to switch—” “Mom, I’m fine!” I snapped, making her stop her endless talk. I heard her sigh in relief. “Why didn’t you pick up your calls? We called for hours.” “I was asleep, and besides, it’s not even up to an hour since I fell asleep,” I replied, narrowing my eyes at the exaggeration she was making. “Whatever, whatever, tell me how that place is, hmm? Do you like it?” “Well…” This is my chance to get away from the weird surroundings that no one loves to come

    ~Louisa~ My lips parted, and I let out a scream that got Kayla running into my room. My door burst open, and I clenched unto Kayla, who rushed to me. “Wolf, wolf!” I exclaimed, pointing at the spot I found it earlier but to my surprise, there was nothing there. Was the wolf gone, or was I hallucinating? “There is nothing there,” Lisa’s annoying voice spoke up. “Tell me what happened, honey, calm down,” Kayla muttered, rubbing my back soothingly. I took in a deep breath and started my explanation. “I saw a wolf, a huge black wolf, standing right there,” I pointed at the spot again. Lisa chuckled in disbelief. I narrowed my eyes at her and faced Kayla. “You need to believe me, Kay, it was standing right there, staring at me with golden eyes. It must have run into the woods when I screamed, I saw it!” I screamed out. My heart sank when I saw the look on Kayla’s face. She doesn’t believe me too, she thought I was making it all up. “I’m not making it up,” I whispered

    ~Xander~ I touched her pale face, tracing her chin with my fingers slowly. She stirred and fluttered her lashes, groaning loudly as her hand flew to her forehead. “Elena?” I called out even if she might decline to be Elena like she did the first time we met. Her eyes snapped open and she sat up on the bed. She glanced around the room and her eyes fell on her parents and sisters. "Mother, father," she gasped out and my brows snapped up in surprise. They gasped out and wrapped their hands around her. "I missed you so much, sister," Areola sobbed and hugged her. Melsa walked closer to Elena and rubbed her cheeks. "You are alive?" she muttered with tears glistening in her eyes. I watched Elena nod her head before burying her head on her shoulder. Elena's father glanced at me and gestured for the others to leave the room with him. I was the last person her eyes fell on and when it did, it widened in shock. “Xander,” the sound of my name from her mouth made me raise my

    ~Elena(Louisa)~ It was hard trying to convince Kayla and my foster parents to let me go, though they had no other choice but to heed my request. I was told that I was found floating on the shore of a beach the day they found me. They took me to the hospital and had me saved but when I woke up, I couldn’t remember anything about myself, not even my name. My foster parents, who had lost their daughter a month before they found me, took me in and named me after her, Louisa Neville. I was given the nickname ‘Luna’ because they thought I had a peculiar scent that didn’t belong to the human race. It was hard being who I wasn’t and leaving who I was but somehow, the cruel fate that separated Xander and I eight years ago was able to bring us back together, this time in a different way, in the best way. I wasn’t a contract Luna, nor Nathan’s mate. I was Alpha Xander’s true Luna, his fated mate. And this time around, nothing will be able to separate me and Xander. “Are you

    ~Elena~I am an Omega, the lowest rank in the wolf packs, the rejected, the despised. I never bother about being an Omega or serving my fellow wolves as long as my family is right beside me.My bed of roses turned into a bed of thorns when I clocked eighteen. I discovered that my mate is the beta, and he has pronounced rejection upon me. My heart is torn and my life has turned complicated. Is this how it feels to be rejected by your mate?~~~~~I trudged slowly to the castle, mincing a determination that I had made earlier. I walked up to the gate and told the guard whom I sought. He scowled at me and turned to open the gate, I made to walk in but got shoved aside roughly.“Fix your ass right there, useless Omega!" He snapped and the Gamma girls behind me laughed mockingly as they flounced into the castle. I got up and flicked the dust away from my clothes.I am used to such humiliation, it starts like a drizzle when you are little and increases to a storm as you increase

    The calm breeze swept my hair across my face, joyfully disarraying it. I brushed it back and glanced at the ferns surrounding the extreme path of the field.That is the path that I have chosen to work, away from the prying and mocking eyes of the Beta.Melsa hobbled up beside me and grimaced.“I don’t feel too good,” she muttered. I nodded understanding her plight, and struck her hair gently. Melsa is my elder sister, she’s 21 yet she doesn’t have a mate. But, aren’t her circumstances better than mine? Isn’t it better to be without a mate than to be rejected by yours?I felt the burning sensation again and knew that the Beta was close by.“The Beta is coming,” Melsa whispered, confirming my suspicion. Melsa slipped away to the spot she came from. I held my head down, eluding the stab of his shadow. I heard his husky voice call my name twice but I didn’t budge, I just couldn’t move my body, I felt paralyzed in depression and anger.“Elena!” It pierced into my eardrum and I finally gave

    ~Louisa~ “One, two, three, go!” We chorused and poured the shots of liquor down our throats. “Oh shit! This burns,” Kayla muttered in a croaky voice. “I’ve got lots of projects this week,” Philo chipped, popping on a bubble gum. “And here you are drinking,” I chuckled. “Come on guys, what’s the motto!” Natasha snapped and we poured another shot and raised it over our head before screaming our absurd motto. “Drink now, study later!” We poured down the shot and slammed the tumblers on the table, coughing and breathing hard in laughter. “We should come here tomorrow, don’t you girls think so?” Natasha said and they all nodded their head in approval. “What about you, Luna?” Natasha asked, their eyes fixed on me. “Me?” I stammered and shook my head, backing out of the plan. “I’ve got work to do.” “Work?” Philo muttered, twitching her lips in disgust. “Community service.
