“Are you going to refuse Max or not!”
“Answer me!”
Bam!
I stumbled down, absorbing the trauma and swallowing the pain.
‘Elaina was beating me more harshly than yesterday.’
“Fuck! You have a mouth to answer me, Elizabeth! Should I rip that off too!”
Even if I have a mouth, I wasn’t given a chance to say what my heart desires and claim what’s mine.
Elaina always took everything from me, and I let her do whatever she wanted. But this time, I cannot give in to her request.
She cannot steal my mate from me. Never!
“Please, Elaina! I can give you everything! Food, clothes, and even this frail body. I was willing to sacrifice it for you, sister. But Max? My mate? I can’t give it to you!”
With one swift move, I felt the pain in my ribcage. Elaina kicked me in the stomach.
“Ugh!”
I took a deep breath; it brought a pang in my lungs. I felt my stomach tighten as I threw up blood, which hurt my ribs some more.
“Listen, you despicable lowly being!” Elizabeth remarked while pointing at me. “Max likes no one but me. I just realized that I am also in love with him. Are you really going to ruin our relationship just because he is your fucking mate?!”
‘Just?’
I’ve been waiting for this my whole life! To escape from my abusive stepmother and stepsister, and live happily with my mate!
This is my dream and Elaina would like to steal it from me!
Groaning, I looked back at my stepsister and cried out loud.
“I know that you are only doing this because you hate me, Elaina. Please! I am begging you! Just leave me and Max alone! Once we get married, I will leave the house and never bother you again!”
Elaina looked down at me before a smile full of malice appeared. She stepped on my legs, causing me to shriek in pain.
“Ahhh!”
“Listen, you ugly bitch,” she uttered while pressing my thighs with her heels. “Max is an Alpha. Did you hear that? Someone like you who is ugly, skinny, and worthless isn’t fit to be his Luna! Have you ever seen a Luna who is as ugly as you! Huh!”
“Ahhh! E-Elaina! Don’t do this! I…”
A tingling pain swept across my cheek. Elaina slapped me in the face, which she rarely does because she avoided hitting me in a place where other members may see.
“Shameless bitch,” she murmured.
I swallowed the pain.
‘Pain was just an illusory sensation that my mind could shut down if it needed to,’ I said to myself because I don’t want to give up Max.
“Let’s have a deal,” Elaina said while brushing her bangs upwards.
“R-Really?” I asked, kneeling down.
“What will you do if Max hates you and rejects you?”
My head swam at her question. ‘What will I do?’
It will be hard to accept it but…
“If that happens,” I mumbled in the voice of someone who was about to break down. “Then I will leave him alone and won’t bother him anymore.”
“All right,” Elaina uttered, chuckling. “Stay here and wait. I will bring Max and let him reject you himself.”
Elaina turned around. Her dress fluttered and I saw it dancing in the air with my peripheral vision. My hands clenched as I sat up.
I wanted to believe my mate.
But at the same time, I was scared.
I was scared to be abandoned like a useless rag by my own mate.
Yet, I waited like a fool.
“Argh! Ahhhh!”
“Elizabeth! Elizabeth! What’s happening?!”
My head was swaying like a winder horse. I inched my arms under me and pushed myself up. But it was futile. My whole body felt so sore as if I was burning alive in the pit of fire.
“Take Elizabeth to the hospital! Quick!”
“No!”
Catching my breath, I looked at the people in the pack who were looking over me.
“Are you insane?” Georgina, my dead mother’s friend, asked me while on the verge of crying. “You’ll die! I promised your mother that I will protect you!”
Even if everyone was begging me to go to the hospital, I shook my head.
“I need to… wait,” I said, growling in pain. “Max will come. He will… prove that Elaina was wrong. So please, let me stay and wait.”
I endured the pain that seemed everlasting. When the pain subsided, I lost all of my strength and fell asleep.
‘It’s okay. Once I wake up, Max will be here.’
Or so I thought.
“Hey, you! Wake up! Wake up you shit!”
My thighs hurt like a rotten tomato. I opened my eyes and saw my stepsister, Elaina.
‘She’s back!’
The first thing that came to my mind was to look for Max. But I didn’t see him. Elaina came back alone.
“W-Where is Max?” I mumbled.
Elaina showed a menacing beam and laughed so hard.
“Max won’t come.”
“H-He won’t?”
Why?
I am his mate. Why?!
“He said that he doesn’t like you. Your face disgusts him and you don’t deserve to be his Luna.”
No. I don’t believe that. This is just one of Elaina’s evil schemes!
“That’s not true!” I shouted, tears flowing from my eyes.
“You don’t believe it?”
“Yes. I would not believe it, not until I heard it from him!”
“Then, what about this?”
Elaina grabbed her phone and showed it to me. When I looked at the screen, my eyes widened and my heart squeezed in terror.
[“I don’t like Elizabeth. She’s too frail and skinny. Compared to your sexy body, she’s nothing but a stick! There’s only you in my life, Elaina. I only love you.”]
It was a video of Max confessing her feelings to Elaina while they were hugging tightly; there was no space between their bodies.
Badump!
I pressed my chest which was pounding like a hummingbird’s wings.
‘Elaina was right. My mate… hates me. My mate loves her!’
“Now, can you believe it? Max would choose me rather than his own mate?” Elaina boasted. “Do you know why? BECAUSE THERE WAS NO ROOM FOR AN UGLY BEAST LIKE YOU, ELIZABETH.”
Unable to say anything, I grabbed her phone and looked closely at the video. My hands trembled as my whole world fell apart. And then, tears kept rolling down my cheek like water gushing from a broken dam.
“See that? You should have believed me,” Elaina said before she snatched her phone back.
I stayed on the ground and was in total paralysis.
‘Elaina won. She stole everything from me, even my own mate.’
“Since we made a deal, it’s your turn, Elizabeth. Reject Max as your mate.”
My lips detached.
“I refused Max as…” I shut my eyes tightly before continuing, “As my mate.”
“Hah!” Elaina scoffed. “That is not the right way, you idiot. Do it right!”
She forged a cough and uttered.
“I, Elizabeth from the Black Lake pack, rejected Max as my mate. Say it.”
My fists clenched into cannonballs. But my mouth was hypnotized by the heartache Max caused me. And they moved on their own.
“I, Elizabeth from the Black Lake pack, rejected Max as my mate.”
“Do it again.”
“I, Elizabeth from the Black Lake pack, rejected Max as my mate.”
“Again.”
“I, Elizabeth from the Black Lake pack, rejected Max as my mate.”
“AGAIN!”
“I, Elizabeth from the Black Lake pack, rejected Max as my mate.”
“Good! I recorded it!”
Hearing the last three words Elaina had said, my body fell to the ground and everything went black.

I woke up in the small room and looked around. Elaina and Max aren’t here. But the bruises on my thighs were evidence of a memory that I had forgotten for a moment.‘Wasn’t it just a dream?’ “Did you wake up?”I looked up and saw Georgina. She went inside with a bowl of water and a clean towel. Georgina sat down.“Elaina did a lot today, didn’t she?”She did. My stepsister beat me more than the last time.“I am sorry, Elizabeth,” Georgina said. Tears welled up in her eyes. “If only I am strong enough to save you, I will.”“Georgina.”“Yes?”“Did Max and Elaina come back?”Her eyes widened and subsided.“You didn’t remember? Elaina came back.”“Alone?”“No. She came back and you…”The sound of her melancholy voice gave me an ominous feeling.“I did what?” I asked, holding her arms.She peered straight into my eyes and uttered, “You rejected Max, Elizabeth. You said it yourself.”In a second I sank into the deep sea and the whole world suddenly disappeared. Now that Georgina told me wh

I’ve been pursuing Elaina’s body for years, and yet, she never agreed despite my effort.‘But she’s taking the initiative to come to me today with that fucking gorgeous body?’ Licking the corner of my lips, I sneered at her.“What’s up, Elaina?

Hogan’s POV As I walked in the middle of the forest, the sound of shattered glass emphasized the leaves being crunched under my feet. Tonight, I will go and report the border security situation to Philip, the Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack. I always travel alone on the way to Philip’s house. But tonight, I felt lonelier than before. The forest has dark shadows of the voluminous trees and puzzled bushes. When I looked up, I saw the moon in the sky. It was so beautiful, a headlifter and an enchanter. But the beautiful moon, which was the core of life for werewolves like me, wasn’t enough to ease my sorrow. In times like this, I remembered certain people, who were huge parts of my life. Yet guilt, disappointment, and hatred filled the void of our histories. The longing to see them again was like a bitter pill that was hard to swallow. Mainly because I was the one to blame for it. 'It was my fault.' My friends died because of my curse. This loneliness and deep hatred to myself w

Elizabeth’s POV Slowly and reluctantly, I opened my eyes. I blinked several times to clear the hazy vision as I scrutinized my surroundings in confusion. Then, I found myself in an unfamiliar dim place. The moonlight shone through the window, brightening the room. And when I looked in front of me, bells rang inside my head. In front of me, I saw a tall man with black hair, tanned skin, and sharp eyes. He was so handsome that I caught myself in awe. Thanks to his strong aura, I snapped myself. I crawled backward and protected my body with all my might. “W-Who are you? W-Where am I?” He opened his lips and answered my question right away. “My name is Hogan. You are in the Black Lake Pack.” As soon as he said those, I remembered the last thing I heard from Elaina before I lost consciousness. [“Hurry up, Max. The Blood Moon Pack people are here. We need to send this bitch as soon as possible.”] If he is Hogan and I am in the Blood Moon Pack, then… “B-Black Lake P-Pack? And yo

I woke up after losing consciousness for the second time. And the experience was awful. Elaina and Betty used to beat me whenever they liked. But today, the torture felt longer than before. My mate, Max, rejected me. Elaina and Max forced me to go to the Blood Moon Pack. I tried to escape but met three rogues in the middle of the dark forest. And now… “Now, I am…” I sat up and looked around. ‘I am back at Hogan’s house.’ I tried to move. When I stepped onto the wooden floor, my eyes went to my legs. There was a bandage wrapped around my leg and a stick to support my recent injury. The only one who would treat this is the person who brought me here. “Hogan.” Everything was vivid in my memories. Hogan came to save me from the rogues. Even if I bit his arm, he took me back and treated my wounds. ‘Why would he do all of these?’ “Did he really save me or just like those bastards, he wanted my body?” Remembering the last thoughts I had before I lost consciousness, I recalled

“Do you want to eat this?” I looked at the deer leg which was tantalizing me to grab and eat it. What stopped me from doing so was Hogan himself. Even if he seems harmless right now, it was tough for me to forget the blood he smeared on his hands when he killed the rogues. “N-No. I am fine. I don’t need it.” Hogan blinked a few times. He then withdrew his hand and placed the deer leg back on the plate. Regret came after I avoided his gaze. Is it really because I fear him? Or is it because of the trauma that my stepmother and stepsister clawed at me? Whatever the answer, lamenting was futile. I already refused to eat the meat. And now, Hogan probably ate everyt… No. When I looked back, Hogan was gone. But there are still remaining pieces of meat on the plate he left. My eyes cored at meat. It invited me to come closer and have a bite. My mind opposed the idea, but my feet walked forward anyway. Shortly, I arrived near the table and in front of the tempting food. ‘Hogan won’t

Elizabeth’s POV I was ready to spend a sleepless night. But when I woke up, I felt betrayed by my expectations. “I… I fell asleep.” Saying it once doesn’t feel enough, so I repeated it again. “I. FELL. ASLEEP.” My first night inside the cursed man’s house was long. I thought it would be impossible for me to sleep since Hogan was with me under the same roof. But to my surprise, it wasn’t scary at all. The birds chirped. My eyes looked at the window, gazing upon the blue sky of the clear morning. The sun was out long before. I guess it is already 9 in the morning. “That was a long sleep.” If I ever woke up this late in our house, Betty would nag at me, saying that I should move my lazy ass up. I would start preparing breakfast and cleaning around while my stepsister was still in her sleeping beauty mode. I lived like “Cindeluna”, a werewolf children’s story where the female lead served her stepmother and stepsisters as a maid. ‘I am not in our house. I should stop thinking abou

Hogan, Elizabeth, and Klide finished their dinner together. Klide went to sleep, and the couple went to take a bath together, to release the fatigue of today’s activities. Hogan cautiously put Elizabeth, with her clothes still on, down in the bathtub filled with warm water, looking anxiously into her. “Did you meet with Regis?” Afraid that her meeting with Regis would spike up her husband’s jealousy, Elizabeth quickly explained, “Yes. He came to wish me a good life. And bid his goodbye.” Hogan, who knew so well why Regis finally met his wife, only nodded his head. Actually, he was happy for Regis to sort out his feelings. And he wasn’t really scared that he would lose Elizabeth. No matter what happened, Elizabeth would remain on his side. Thinking that, he looked at his wife. The moonlight that melted into the thick darkness was seeping through the window. And Elizabeth was right under it. Lips that smiled at him and a cute nose bridge. Even her green eyes shone softly.

Elizabeth’s POV It was a very emotional reunion for me. Although Regis and Hogan became close friends during the years they worked together, I did not have the chance to meet Regis alone and talk to him. It was as if he purposely avoided me for a reason that I did not know. Now, we’re sitting along the riverbanks. “The sun will go down, but I haven’t caught anything for our dinner,” I complained. “Thanks to the guy who stole my arrow.” Regis showed me his deep and sincere smile as he laughed. “Don’t worry. I caught a boar in advance.” Regis then pointed to the dead boar from afar, which he probably caught before meeting me. “And that’s the reason why I was complaining,” I said. “I noticed the boar and prayed you would give that in exchange.” We chuckled together before our eyes caught the beautiful sunset. “I heard that Elaina is dead,” Regis started. “Yes. She came into the King’s castle and even tried to kill me. Hogan and I sorted it out.” “As expected to the King.” “

Elizabeth’s POV Deep in the woods lies a log cabin where Hogan and I built our memories. Even if years pass by, the cabin has its natural beauty lit up by happiness. It was a place that many rogues avoided because of the curse, but for me, it glows even miles away. After Elaina died in public, Hogan and I finally went on vacation with our son, Klide. We will stay here for maybe a month. Being the Alpha King and the Queen of the Lunas came with huge responsibilities. And so, Hogan and I really prayed that no problem would arise during our stay in our cozy home. Inside the cabin, we were in front of the fireplace. We set a bed covered with soft cotton sheets, that would invite us to rest in our contentment. Lying on the bed together with Klide in our center, our kid began to ask us questions. “So, Mom and Dad met in this place?” I met Hogan’s red eyes before answering our son’s question. “Yes, Klide. Your dad and I first met here.” Klide looked up to his father and tossed ano

The next morning… As soon as the darkness was lifted and the sun rose, a guillotine was set up in front of the Alpha King’s castle. Those who heard the news gathered in a hurry as they wanted to witness the death of the Alpha King’s mate who tried to kill the Queen of the Lunas. The execution was so sudden that not all Alphas were present. It was partly due to the fact that it was no longer a serious issue. It was the execution of a rogue she-wolf, and no one cared about Elaina. Even so, the lady was related to Elizabeth, and many respected the Luna and showed kindness sitting in the seats next to the execution table, and onlookers who would enjoy others’ misfortunes and deaths for entertainment filled the area. Elizabeth also waited for Elaina, preparing to let go of the terrible past. Soon, Elaina appeared with chains around her wrists. She had a dazed look than Elizabeth had expected. “Get down!” Elaina was pulled by the coercive power of he-wolf and she was dragged onto t

Third Person’s POV It was after dark that Elaina woke up. Elaina opened her eyes in the black darkness because they had blocked all the windows and did not come in a single light, and she stared blankly at the darkness for a moment. Then suddenly, she heard the sound of a chain outside her room as if someone was opening a door that was locked using a chain. “You were awake. Tie her up!” Suddenly, several werewolf soldiers came into the room, and began to tie her up. “Let me go!” She shouted, but they only added strength to their hands, saying that she was making a noise. “No, set me free!” “Shut up! You’re a sinner. How dare you!” “You can’t do this to me! I am the King’s mate!” “The King’s mate! You are so shameless!” The soldiers seemed to have a lot of bad feelings toward Elaina, who had tried to kill the Alpha King, who had shown mercy on her. “How do you still have the nerve to say that you are Hogan’s mate after what you’ve done?” “I’ve seen so many sinners, but I’ve

Elizabeth’s POV Before going to the garden where my husband asked me to have tea with him, I asked him, “Why did you only invite me?” Hogan looked my way. “Kilde might want to join us too.” “He should not,” Hogan said before intertwining his hands in mine. “There are people and things I don’t want our kid to witness. And what might happen today will hurt Klide. So, I only took you.” Hogan stopped walking and held both of my shoulders. His expression was sweet, but his eyes were a bit sad and apologetic. “Elizabeth, I really wanted to act on my own and avenge all the bad things you had experienced in the past. But in this case, I knew that I should let you decide what to do.” I couldn’t understand what he was saying, not until I saw Elaina waiting for us in the garden. ‘So, this is what Hogan wanted to tell me. He wanted me to punish Elaina with my own hands.’ Just like how he punished Philip before. “Elizabeth, it’s been years since all the mess we faced before. I was kicke

Elaina’s POV A time for me to exact my revenge came. Once I succeeded in killing Elizabeth, I will comfort the King and treat their child as my own. And what will happen after that? Of course, as the King’s original mate, Hogan will fall in love with me, and I will be the new Queen of the Lunas. But before that, I have to make a plan on how to kill Elizabeth. I heard that b*tch is a Gypsy. I can’t attack her right away and stab her with a knife. ‘Hogan will kill me for sure.’ If I use poison, her power as a Gypsy will heal her either way. ‘Think Elaina. Think of a way to kill that annoying b*tch.’ “What are you holding?” While washing the dishes, I turned my head and looked at the other maids conversing here in the kitchen. “This is a Gabro Poison. I used this to poison the rat in the castle. There are many of them recently.” “Are you nuts? Why are you using Gabro? The Alpha King banned using that since last month.” “Really? I did not know. Why?” “It seemed that the Lun

Elaina’s cheek reddened because of the maid’s slap. “Did… Did you just… raise your hand on me?” dumbfounded, Elaina asked. “You are so shameless. You don’t even know it gets dirty every time you walk.” Elaina, accustomed to the compliments given to her before, trembled with shame at the maids’ one-sided insults. “You b*tches. I’ve been so annoyed that you talked down to me. I am the King’s guest. You’ll definitely be punished if Hogan knows of this!” She shouted as if she was above the maids, and the maids hardened like ice water in the bathroom for a while. Elaina calmed herself as if she thought she had given a fatal blow at them and regained her lofty look, which did not suit her appearance. But she was mistaken. The maids looked at each other and soon laughed as if it was ridiculous. “Did you hear that? Oh my god, she must be crazy.” “Did she say she is the Alpha King’s guest?” “You’re saying that with that dirty, miserable appearance. Excuse me, Miss, you are just a lowl

Third Person’s POV Elaina was brought into a dark and cold room. ‘Even if he knew that I was his mate, he gave me a cold room!’ Cursing inwardly, Elaina crouched roundly as it was hard to overcome the cold, worry, and fear. As soon as her face was buried in the arms on her crouched knees, she waited for anything that would lead her to Elizabeth. ‘I need to see you. And once I do, I will kill you, Elizabeth. Hogan will be mine.’ Suddenly, the tough footsteps gradually came to Elaina, and shortly afterward, the footsteps stopped in front of her room. “Come one.” Elaina looked up at her head in a flash, as she heard a voice. It was one of the guards Hogan asked to look over her. The guard opened the door and his furrowed forehead glanced over Elaina’s shabby and miserable appearance. “Come out. Quick.” “Y-Yeah. Wait a minute.” Elaina, who was known for her beauty back in the Black Lake pack, stood up pathetically. She gave her feet full of power and got out of her small room.
