Felxa pov..

“ You clearly heard what I said, Love!” A cruel smirk appeared on his devilishly handsome face and iam having a conflict with my head, heart and body.

Am I shameless and cruel for finding him attractive even though he is ruining my one chance at happiness! Something is clearly wrong with my head and my wolf, who is suddenly giving him eyes.

“ No, I'm not going to do what you are asking. I'd rather die than reject my MATE.” I gritted out the last word putting emphasis on it.

“ Do you think you have any say in this! You are going to do exactly what I am saying, Felza!” A warning growl rumbled through his chest and went straight to my core.

What the fudge! Something is not right! Is there any witch near me? Who is blowing her magic my way! 

“ No! I'm not going to reject my Mate and I am canceling this stupid wedding.” Everyone gasped around me like how dare I stand up against the big bad Alpha without any fear.

I can feel pity, bewilderment, Surprise and shock from the people around me. 

They probably have never heard or seen someone stand up to Rhys Blackford.

“ You are going to regret that, Love!” His signature cruel smirk appeared once again shaking the butterflies in my stomach to wreak havoc.

I should be ashamed but I'm not! 

“ Maybe, Maybe not but what I know is that I don't want to lose my mate.” I may look like a sacrificial goat ready to be sacrificed but I don't care because I want to have my mate and that's the only thing I know right now other than the consequences which come for standing up against Rhys.

He moved even more closer to me than before, crowding my personal space and not leaving any room to breathe normal air without getting a whiff of his scent which is delicious and mouth-watering.

“ Do you want to get blood on your hands?” His question knocked the air out of me and the fear and terror started gripping me tightly. 

“ W…What do you mean?” I asked, i am trying to be brave and not show him that whatever he is saying is affecting me but the smirk on his face told me that he is very well aware of my fear and he is loving the way he is making me feel.

“ I Am going to kill every single one of them. You heard about my reputation right? I don't  disappoint.” His threat spread like a wildfire making everyone panic as well as some people try to run but Rhys's men surrounded everyone, closing all the exits and locking everyone inside like prisoners.

“ You wouldn't.” I said, disbelief and panic spreading through my body making me nauseous. If I don't run away from here I'm gonna puke my guts out or pass out from the nerves.

“ Try me, Love!” His chuckle vibrated through my body making me shiver even if it's blazing hot around me.

“ Don't you dare touch any of the people here. I will slit your throat before you harm my people.” My wolf pushed me back, taking full control of my body. She loves her pack and people, she doesn't tolerate it if someone threatens her pack.

“ If you don't want any bloody mess then it's better to reject him and move to the altar, Felza!” My name came out of his mouth on a growl. His eyes are shining gold and returning back to their original color.

He is pushing back his wolf, being an Alpha comes with control and domination and here I am standing up to him and saying no. I Am not being in control so his wolf is not liking that and taking me as a challenge.

“ No, I'm not going to change my mind just because you are threatening us.” I may be dumb for saying things which will come to bite me but I'm not going to cower in front of him. 

My wolf agreed with me and she is ready to fight this stupid, Stubborn and handsome Alpha. 

He narrowed his eyes and clicked his finger making me snap my eyebrows together in confusion as to why he did that but when a scream pierced around me I got to know that he signaled his men to hurt anyone from the guests to prove a point. 

“ No, Stop!” The screams of a man echoing around the old church made my stomach flip upside down. I don't want to look at the scene, I can't handle the cruelty he is bestowing upon the people.

“ Why! You clearly don't care about anyone other than yourself. Let me do what I'm doing and you do what you want to.” He is mocking me, belittling me and showing me that I have no power against him.

“Stop! I….I will do what you want.” I gritted out the words. Tears burning behind my eyes and my heart breaking piece by piece,I can feel my heartbreak physically.

“ See! How easy is that? Come, let's get it over already.” He is throwing the words so carelessly like he doesn't value the bonds Moon goddess has blessed. He truly is a monster with black heart.

“ What is your name!” He demanded my mate, who stood there like a statue gritting his teeth but not standing up for his mate.

I should be the one standing up for our bond but my hands are tied because he seems like a low ranking wolf and he can't stand a chance in front of this monster.

“ Chris Ashford.” His name came out of his mouth begrudgingly tearing my heart even more.

“ You heard him right? Proceed.” He demanded, his eyes shining cruelty and he is standing there like he is bored with this.

“ I, Felza Rose Winters, R…Reject Chris Ashford as My fated mate.” If I want to be not stomped upon by this heartless monster then I need to be strong and always raise my head even in the situations which are killing me.

“ Great! Now it's your turn.” he growled at the last part, startling me as well as my ex-mate.

“ I, Chris Ashford, accept Felza Rose Winters Rejection.”  A pain like no other pierced through my heart making me clutch it and my knees buckle making me kneel on the ground. 

“ It's not the time to cry, Love! We are already behind the times. Let's go.” He didn't even let me grieve my bond for a second before he was occupying my space and head with his presence and touch.

He took my body in his arms in bridal style and took me to the altar where the priest was waiting for us. I feel numb, tears streaming down my face but I don't care about anything right now. 

Grunts of pain from my mate can be heard but there is no bond buzzing between us now, it's gone. There is nothing but an empty void inside me. 

I don't know how i'm going to survive this but i am going to do whatever it takes to survive this like the Alpha female iam.

    Felza’s POVI knew how much effort I had already put in to stop the wedding and be with my true mate Chris Ashford, but Rhys was too strong and worst of all, he remained charming in the midst of this chaos. Somehow we were meant to be together but how could I willingly accept a man so devious and ruthless to be my mate! To be the father of my pups! To lead my people. I really needed the alpha female in me to stir up now because it was a now-or-never situation at the moment. “If you are thinking of doing something stupid right now, I suggest you come off it cause the life of everyone in this is at stake right now.” Rhys said as he turned to look at the terrified crowd gathered in utter shock at the turn of the events in the wedding. Even the priest saying the prayers and rites was terrified at how aggressive Rhys had been and how spontaneous he was, to act in very ruthless ways. The situation had clearly grown out of hand. With the men of Rhys surrounding the hall, the terrified look

    Felza's POV Sitting in the peace of our new rooms, I still felt the sting from the slap I left o Rhys's cheek. The echo of my smack appeared to mix with the weight of my sadness in my head. Rhys's estate was beautiful and opulent. The surroundings was filled with beautiful flowers and plants yet the loneliness and quietness of the place made it very cold and unwelcoming.It felt to many of Rhys people that I was the heartbeat of a wealthy Alpha who was also very handsome and most of the girls dream man, but though all I got was the stifling quiet of betrayal and hopelessness, I had hoped for comfort or warmth. My own thoughts returned to my people, my clan. The people that watched and protected me while I was growing. Helped and teamed to evade external attacks many years ago and sustain the clan from external aggression. Their faces in the throng caught me as frozen in agony, disbelief and disappointment. Their exchanges of eyes suggested sadness. Watching me wed someone they kne

    Felza's POVFor a moment I paused and all I could think of was to take a breath. I stood within the confines of the mansion and my gaze darted to Rhys's men who had cold expressions on their faces. 'Trying to get past these men is going to be a waste of time,’ I thought to myself and voluntarily returned back into the house.I tried to stay calm and allowed my mind work its wonder. “What if Victoria was right and my stiffness and reluctance puts me in a lot of mess in the nearest future? What if my clan and people were forever captured and their lands and spoils forever transcended to the hands of Rhys and his allies and the end of my root is me?”“what if I could build an alliance with Victoria and manage to convince my father to take a chunk of his time to plot with the valiant warriors left in our clan and secure a tight and fortified front for us to hold Rhys's allies and himself hostage or possibly ambush them. Because in the long run the people dear to me and all the glory of th

    Rhys's POV. The night felt shorter than day lately and the weight of the heavy fog accompanying the sun as it was about rising felt very amazing. It was a calming scene to watch.Perched near the window, I saw the first rays of dawn break across the horizon. There was no peace even if the sky was a light grey with a shade of pink.I kept going back over the events of the previous evening in my brain, growing more and more annoyed with every second. Felza had tested me in a way none else had ever done. Her ego and will to give in infuriated me, but at the same time I felt an odd excitement. She needed to understand she belongs to me. I had been very liberal and too gentle on myself. I had already shown her last night the cost of disobedience. I thought of it as such. But as I watched her now, still on my bed, a persistent discomfort crept into my chest.Felza's soft breathing rising and falling dominated the still room. She had been unconscious and I had personally brought her here si

    Felza’s POVEverything was moving so fast. I couldn’t make sense of what had happened. It was very strange and concerning. I squeezed my face hard and sat there, lost in my own thoughts. Rhys had attacked me, bruising and pummelling me. My heart felt worse; my body hurt. When he told me we had consummated our marriage, I felt like I was drowning in a sea of hopelessness. I had woken up in his bed and the scent of his perfume choked me. His terrible eyes seared into my head, and I could hardly look at him without feeling queasy.There was a time when this same chambers felt like a display of the authority I shared with Rhys, now it felt nothing like that but a hell hole. It felt like a prison, a jail! And I had to breakaway as quickly as possible. Chris showed up just as promised. I felt a flutter of optimism when I saw him standing at the brink of the trees close to the packhouse. His eyes reflected worry, and for a moment I felt safe. We both knew, though, we had time to waste. W

    Rhys’ POV I could still taste the blood in my tongue. The night was far from done, and the shadows of the trees seemed to be closing in on me as I dashed across the dark forest.Not only from the effort, but from the idea of what I could discover when I came up to them— Felza and Chris, in the hands of that damned enemy pack. My heart hammered in my chest.My wolf roaring inside me, wanting to take control, my breath was labrous. Still, I had remain under control and think clearly. Losing Felza was not anything to consider. Bound to me by fate, she was mine and nobody was going to take her from me. Not Chris, and most definitely not Marcus, the savage leader of this competing pack.My blood went cold when I at last came to the clearing. On their knees surrounded by Marcus and his wolves were Felza and Chris. Marcus was towering, his eyes flashing with a mix of triumph and something worse. More seasoned, he was older than me and had a reputation for ruthlessness that matched my own.

    Rhys's POV Usually in sync, my wolf and I reflected each other, but today there was a divide in our relationship. I felt as though I was disintegrating, the gloom invading areas I had never even realised existed. I refused to stand there and do nothing. I had to track her back-off and make sure she knew she belonged to me. But as I turned to follow the road she had chosen, a voice, this time inside my head stalled me cold. "Rhys, you're not ready." Though I owned the words, they were not mine. They came from a side of myself I had buried after years of neglecting. The part that worried about what I may become if I really let the beast inside loose. "You're not strong enough yet to face Marcus and his pack.” The idea made me furious. How could I not be sufficient? Alpha of one of the most potent packs in existence.Through blood and sweat, I had battled and crawled my way to the top to earn my place. Still, down deep I knew the truth. Marcus was not any average opponent. He was uniqu

    Rhys POV. I found myself thinking about her non stop. Every instant she was absent seemed like an eternity, chewing at my core. I let Felza go, to not fight for her right now, makes me feel like a coward, a loser. I ought to have taken action. Anything. I didn't, though, and now she's with Marcus, probably bombarding her mind with lies, turning her against me. I rushed towards my chambers in search of Eric. As I enter the chamber, my heart races; the familiar smell of pine and earth does nothing to quiet the tempest within me.He wasn't in sight. I turned around and walked in another direction. I caught a glimpse of my servants who were engrossed in a discussion but paused abruptly after seeing me. Their eyes showed clearly the discomfort, as if a dense fog of anxiety permeated the air. I hated it since they fear me. For so long I reigned with an iron grip, yet what has it brought me? A mate gone and a pack that worries about me.“Eric," I yelled, my voice resonating across the co

    Eric’s POV. The following morning after the incident felt eerily serene, the sort of serenity that caused the hairs on my rear of the neck to rise up. Though the sun was just starting to rise and the castle grounds was covered in a faint glow, the coolness in the air was obvious. I hadn't slept a wink; my thoughts kept repeating the events of the previous evening. It tormented me the sound of broken bones and the sight of blood gathering on the floor. I heard the disturbance while in the courtyard attempting to clear my brain. Near the castle gates, a small gathering had assembled; their whispers got louder every second. I initially couldn't understand what they were saying, but then I heard it—a name whispered among them, a word that made my blood stop. Good. My heart thumping in my chest, I shoved my way through the throng. She was doing what exactly here? She was with Marcus, so I knew, but to show up like this thus shortly following the attack? It lacked logic. When I got to

    Eric’s POV. When we got to Rhys location, we explained all that we where encountering and he decides on our next course of actions. It seemed Rhys had fought a thousand wars from the confidence he portrays and emotionlessness on his face. Tension permeated the air as we headed under darkness towards Marcus's estate. While the other three assassins—Keno, Brant, and Saul—trailed behind, their motions quiet but lethal, Pamel strolled next to me, his eyes sharp and concentrated. The scheme was straightforward but brutal: attack Marcus's family to leave an indelible scar he would never forget. But I felt the weight of what we were going to do more the closer we got. We arrived at the outside edge and slid past the security with trained simplicity. Though Marcus had a sizable estate, we knew just where to go for our targets. Nestled at the rear and encircled by huge, gnarled trees creating lengthy shadows in the dark, was the house his mother and sister inhabited. Just before we arrive

This made me feel pissed and spiteful as I couldn’t stand having my masters name and repute discussed by commoners as mere trivialities. As I stood close to the main hall door, attempting to interpret the increasing discomfort among the pack, I heard Marcus's haughty and conceited voice. I froze, listening to him spew hateful comments in a tone full of derision and contempt. "Rhys is nothing but a coward!" Marcus bellowed, his voice like a blade piercing the darkness. “Too feeble, too brittle to confront me. Being aware of his incapacity to face a genuine challenge, he retreats behind his ostensibly 'loyal' supporters.” Marcus spat. “ Not to mention his two tiny "hoes," Gloria and Felza. He's only useful for having them by his side to stroke his wounded pride." Marcus went on to trash Rhys until my blood

    Rhys’ POV. Quietly and peacefully, I stood in my quarters and looked out over the pack's territory; the night air was heavy with anxiety. The moon was low in the sky, giving the surroundings a spooky glow. I was aware that the choices I had made today would affect our pack's destinyThere was no room for failure as the enemies to our pack was closer now more than ever. Cench and Pamel had jumped right into their task. They started their preparations a few hours after our encounter. They were the ideal leaders I required because of their silent strength; they would protect our pack and neutralise any dangers before they could get to our door. Eric had informed me of their developments. I was informed of every action they took and every new hire they brought on board. Word quickly got out among the wolves that a new assassination gang dedicated just to me and our cause was emerging. Whispers, anxiety, and anticipation filled the group. By morning on the second day, Cench and Pamel h

    Rhys POV. I was pacing my quarters, mulling about everything. Based on Elder Davis's tenacity in trying to call off the war, I felt the seniors were organising something. He had never been one to back down from a disagreement, hence his sudden change of heart unnerved me. The man was hiding something, hence I was not going to ignore that. Elder Davis lost my trust, and that was a mistake on his behalf. You couldn afford to start to lose faith in my surroundings. Stopped pacing, I looked out the window with hands balled into fists. The pack's future was in jeopardy, and I couldn't let anyone discredit all I had laboriously gone to accomplish—not even Davis. One heard a door knock. I yelled out, staring towards the dark forest that surrounded our house. " Come in." Eric came in and softly closed the door behind him. " You wanted to see me, Rhys?" I turned to face him, a sharp grimace on my lips. "Davis is currently a major problem." Eric arched an eyebrow and stepped forward. "I fe

    Gloria POV. After the roasting had subsided, and the air was eerily silent. Glancing at Rhys, who stood motionless, his face set in hard lines, my heart was thumping. Something about that sound had unnerved him, even though he was typically powerful and in charge. His eyes narrowed as if they were attempting to break through the darkness outside, and his jaw tightened—I could see it. I shifted nervously, feeling as though everything was bearing down on me. Already, the impending battle with Marcus loomed large over us, a confrontation that might turn everything around. And suddenly there was this weird, unnerving sound, like a dreadful omen. Rhys looked at Damien and Eric, who were also tense. With a strong and low voice, he stated, "We need to figure out what that was." "We can't afford to ignore it if it's related to Marcus." They nodded, but I felt a wave of panic come over me as they started to depart. Rhys needed to be distracted, so I had to keep him close. I couldn't allow a

    The only sound accompanying me as I strolled across the Bluemoon pack's home was the echo of my feet on the chilly marble flooring. The seniors had called me, and every step seemed weightier than the next. I knew they were unhappy with me; their annoyance had been growing. My attempts to get Felza back and my recent behaviour had not only stoked their mistrust but also spawned rumours about my possible overthrow. The meeting room was tight, a far cry from the normal friendliness I knew in my own pack. Seated in a semicircle, the elderly had austere, uncompromising looks. Their keen, penetrating looks followed me as I came in. "Rhys," Elder Noran remarked, his voice a deep rumble that seemed to weigh many millennia. "You have been called here because of mounting questions about your leadership and recent behaviour." Breathing deeply, I tried to calm my nerves. "I understand," my voice calm. "I am doing everything I can to correct mistakes I know I have made." Often the most vocifer

    Rhys' POV.. After Tito left, the palace appeared colder and darker. The image of his damaged eyes stayed with me, along with the pain in his words. The suffering and treachery felt like a vice surrounding me.Lost in my thoughts, my mind whirling from the events of the evening, I wandered the poorly lit halls. Tito's face flashed in my head as I rounded a bend, the way he had stared at me with incredulity and grief. My heart hammered, guilt and rage seething inside me.I had to clear my thoughts and find some sort of control amidst the turmoil I had caused. Then I heard a freezing noise, soft and muted like the scrape of a sword against stone. I whirled around, instincts driving me forward. At the end of the hall, I caught sight of Tito's shadow.Panic tore through me. Could he have come back? Was this some kind of sick joke? I grabbed the sharp knife I always carried at hand in a flash of pure panic and desperation. As I approached the shadow, my breath came quick and jagged. I rais

    Rhys POV. The grass's great expanse was strangely quiet, broken only by tree rustling. Frayed and tired, I peered into the night. Every attempt to recover Felza had come up short. Marcus was relentless; the messengers returned with just more challenges. It's odd how someone may feel so alone even in a crowd. Though their attendance felt hollow, my pack members had been trying to express support. Though they could not fill the gap Felza left, they could feel my hopelessness. Though within I was disintegrating while trying to keep the picture of power and control. Footsteps behind me, I turned to find Gloria approaching me. Her dress more exposed than usual, hung to her curves. She sported a light-hearted, nearly mocking smile. I had tried to retain some degree of decency and distance. My efforts were running thin, though. Every interaction with her served as a reminder of the void Felza left behind, and Gloria's presence merely made me feel empty. Gloria whispered, "Rhys," gently
