Chapter 176Writer's POV Emily, seeing everything was turning, began making fireballs with her hand, then proceeded to throw them at Alisha. Though she did it openly, none of them accepted it; Darien, Alisha, and Daniel saw it.Immediately she threw the fire, it ceased on the way; no matter how hard she tried, it still didn't work. Alisha, who was already anticipating the blow, quickly opened her eyes only to see that it was Daniel who was holding it with his eyes.They were shocked but still composed."This old lady here has been the one doing everything that's gone wrong in this pack. Why aren't you all worried about how she still manages to look young even after so many years? Don't you find it suspicious? She looked exactly like this before she died, and look at her today; nothing has changed. Do you think it's because she doesn't age like every other old person in this pack, or is there more to it?" "Don't just keep beating around the bush; tell us what you are trying to say."
Chapter 177"Save whatever you have to say until we have settled everything. Don't add to my stress, please," he left her and stormed in.He tried entering, but the guard at the door stopped him."You can't go in.""Why can't I?""Please don't make things difficult for us; just leave," the guard told him.He reluctantly left.***"If you truly are the alpha's son, then prove it!""I don't need to argue with you! When the time comes, you will get hit really hard!" Darien chuckled.The old lady walked up to Alisha, who was standing not far from her. She tried holding Alisha's hands, but Alisha moved back, and boom, a favor appeared from nowhere and burned her hands. Everyone gasped."What just happened? It just came from Luna! Don't tell me the old lady was right; Luna practices black magic! Look at what she did to the woman; she burned her hand!" Alisha looked at her, but finding the right word to use, that never came from her."I didn't do it! She just came to touch me, and I moved ba
Chapter 178"It's the truth! What makes you believe I will let you rule the pack? Something I've spent my whole life dreaming of? I liked your father, and I was going to do the same with you!"A tear slipped down Henry's cheek as he watched his mom, realizing that the old lady had been leading him astray all along."Why? Why did you treat me this way? I've spent my entire life in sadness. You made me believe I must get the throne regardless of what it takes, so this was it? You are wicked, Mom; you don't deserve to live! You should die!" she yelled, grabbing the necklace around his neck."Please don't cut it; that's my life! If you cut it, then I'm going to get old. I'm way older than you all expected; this necklace has been the thing keeping me young. I'm way older than everyone here. I am old enough to give birth to the old alpha himself. Please don't do it—I’ve done lots of things to be able to achieve this because now I'm only steps away from achieving it. Please don't end me," sh
Chapter 1Alisha's POV"The mateless one!" The words jabbed at my heart like a needle that had been dipped into alcohol. I clenched my clothes, squeezing my chest in the process."Get out, you cursed one, and don't ruin this lively occasion for us!" Someone barked and that was all I needed to hear.I raced outside like a deer that suddenly received a burst of energy. The tears were spilling in massive waves and streaming down my face as I ran. I continued running, even as the tears blurred my vision. I continued running, my heart pounding in my chest. I didn't know where I was running to, I only knew that I needed to get away from the town square and the prying eyes of the people who had watched me break down. I kept running, feeling my blood boil over and over again. I felt an intense hatred towards the moon goddess for making my life so miserable. First I had lost my parents and my best friend, and now I was being tagged mateless for life. I was exhausted and I knew I should sto
Chapter 2Alisha's POVHow did he manage to know my name? What if he was lying? Why would the alpha king be interested in me?"I've told you already that you have the wrong person. You must have mixed up our names. My name is Alisha." I gave them a slight show and started walking away, when he said something that made me stand riveted to a spot."Your stepfather sold you to us." I couldn't believe my ears. My stepfather? Why would he do something like that? I frowned in confusion. "How do you know my stepfather?" I couldn't just believe him so easily.He expelled air from his mouth in frustration as he scratched his head. "Miss Alisha, we really don't have much time here. The alpha king is waiting already. And he hates it when people make him wait. Please, come with us already.""No!" I strongly refused. "I am not going anywhere with you until you tell me what business my stepfather has to do with the alpha king!""Alright, here you go. Your stepfather owes the alpha a lot of money
Chapter 3Alisha's POVI cleared my throat awkwardly, employing my mind for a long search of what to say. My mind had even refused to work properly. Finally, I reckoned I should just greet him and thank him for it earlier."Good afternoon, sir. I was actually----""Who said you could speak!?" He said in a very clipped and cold voice.He doesn't recognize me?I felt a slight chill run down my spine and it became difficult to swallow down my throat. I didn't know I was not expected to greet. I studied his face now and I noticed he looked very different from when I had first seen him.Earlier, even despite the dangerous aura surrounding him, he still had a softness to him. But this new side of his that I was seeing was entirely different. It was terrifying. His eyes were exuding an intense glint of maliciousness. It almost seemed as if he could kill me any moment from now.Both of us didn't speak. He just kept staring at me with disgust written all over his face. I almost forgot to breat
Chapter 4Was it the mate bond he felt? His wolf must have smelt his other half in me.I struggled to speak. "Of course, I'm someone you have met. You saved me earlier in the woods today. That's why I smell familiar." My voice shook as I spoke."Shut your trap!" He yelled.He approached me now and every step he took thundered in my heart. What was he going to do now? I can't let him know he was my mate. I can only imagine what he would do to me if he found out.I quickly stood up and began moving backward until I hit my back against the wall. Now, I was caught between him and the wall. He placed both hands just above my head as he lowered his head towards mine.What was he trying to do?I turned my head to the side, avoiding eye contact with him. My heart was hammering in my ribcage and I felt so suffocated."You, why are you really here!? Who sent you here and why do you have their scent!?" He said through gritted teeth.What the hell was he talking about? Their scent? Whose scent? T
Chapter 5Alisha's POVI trembled in fear at his words. Slash my wrist? Was he really serious? My gaze flickered to his face and I realized that he was dead serious. I didn't even know what these prelims consisted of. What do I do now?I couldn't go back on my words. Either way, He was going to punish me."What are you still waiting for? Get on your feet and start working already!"He sat on the bed and I quickly stood up, trembling like a deer, caught in the headlight. Do I play with his stuff? Was that what the prelim is? Is that how I start?What if I try to do that and he strangles me again?I heard his laughter and my gaze flew to his face. He was amused."Don't tell me little Miss Baby machine doesn't know what the prelim means?"I shook my head. "Why not! I was only getting ready!""You're Alisha, right?" He asked and I nodded."What kind of shitty name is that? Then again, it suits that ugly face of yours!"I let that slide and moved close to him. I placed my hands on his ch

Chapter 175Writer's POV;"After I heard it, I knew the alpha would be helpless if he eventually found out that Darien was not his son, so I decided to help him. I did what I did to save the throne from his lineage; so where did I go wrong?" She battered her lids."One thing I'm trying to get straight is why you've been quiet all these years. Why didn't you come back to lay this claim when he had no heir? Why are you back all of a sudden?" An elder questioned her."It's not that I didn't want to come back, but he threatened my son that he would get rid of her the very day he set foot in this castle.""Then again, why are you with this traitor? Isn't she supposed to be in prison? This can only mean you also have a hand in the supposed death of Luna," a maid said from the back. Though they weren't allowed to speak, at this point, everyone must speak out to prove them wrong."They have no hand in whatever happened to me. I was the one who chose to do it; it was a form of revenge for what
Chapter 174. Writer's POV "Fortunately for me, my wife just died. She used to live with me in the small cottage behind the castle. I had no other way to bury her, so I placed her in the coffin and rescued the queen." "You expect us to believe such a cock-and-bull story? Oh come on; we aren’t kids. Remember, they opened the casket and who we saw was the queen. She was the one in the coffin, not your wife, so butt out!" an elder snapped at the old man. "That's because after I woke up, I made her wear a mask that has exactly my face. That's how everyone came to believe I was the one. I was never dead from the start. Now I'm back to make my son resume his original position because Darien here is not the son of the late Alpha. I have witnessed that." All eyes widened, including Darien's and Alisha's; they didn't see this coming. "What nonsense are you talking about? If we must talk about people who don't belong to the Alpha, then it's your son. Henry is not my brother; I know that so w
Chapter 173One week later*The days went by as if nothing had happened.After they left that day, Darien had to take her to her parents' house to calm her angry brothers.They couldn't be happier. At some point, Daniel had to be proud of the fact that he never once agreed that his mom was no more; he said something inside him was telling him that his mom was very much alive.The news of Luna being alive spread like wildfire in the Greyhound pack, and out of happiness, Darien insisted they celebrate so the villagers who didn't get the chance to see her could come to see her.Michael was heartbroken because he had expected her to move on from Darien once she came back, but she did otherwise by still sticking to him. He couldn't be more heartbroken. Darien noticed it and tried talking to him, but he would just dismiss him, saying they would never be friends no matter what happened.Alisha never once succumbed to the idea; she insisted that it was way too early to celebrate.When they re
Chapter 172"Did anything happen?" She asked, twitching her brow."No not at all, it's just that we've sent two maids already and they both said you didn't open up, they even said it seems you weren't around" Emily replied briskly."Is this how these maids behave? They came here and I was having my bath in the bathroom, I was shouting really hard telling them I was having my bath but they didn't even hear properly instead they went about telling people I wasn't around, oh wow!""It's not like that dear, please don't blame them, we knew you were inside, and they didn't your voice because the room is soundproof""You knew I was Inside then why are you in a hurry? Don't tell me you are suspecting me of something, or rather you do t trust me, it's okay’'"No dear, that's not what I meant, I was only curious when they said you ain't in because you barely left the house, I'm not suspecting or accusing you""Fine, you shouldn't!" With that she banged the door, loudly making sure it sounded o
Chapter 171"Do you mind taking me along? I would also like to watch how he dies in Luna's hands, I can't forget how he causes me to suffer. If he hadn't grabbed my hands that day then I'd still be doing just fine, I wouldn't have lost my job but what did he do? He used me to win her back, do t worry I won't cause a scene""No, you can't come with me, I'm already defiling my mom by telling you this, if she sees you she might just get furious and do something she shouldn't have done, don't worry you will hear from me Even we are done with him" Dora shrugged reluctantly."If you say so, then I won't argue or drag this with you, just make sure to get revenge for me too, he also treated me badly" she blurted."Yeah, I will surely call you to come do it yourself when the time comes""If you say so""I've told you what you asked, didn't you think I need to be rewarded for going against my mom to please you?" He smirked."You deserve a huge reward, and you will get it soon, in a bigger way,
Chapter 170Dora walks out of her home to go meet her guest, earlier she had invited him over just like she had planned with Darien.When Henry was leaving his mom did everything he could to stop him but he just won't listen.He told his mom he was going out to get something."You came? I thought you wouldn't now that you have her In your hold""You know I can never do such a thing, I was only saying those things to please my mom, I used to love Alisha, but not anymore, it's you that I love and I want to spend the rest of my life with you.""Yeah, I know you would come back to Me that's why I called""Are you not mad at me?""Of course not, why should I be? I know you only said that in front of your mom to make her feel good, and besides I'm horny, I'm yearning to have you inside me""You are telling me you ain't mad at me? And do you mean it when you said you would let me have s*x with you?""No, I wasn't joking, You should know I never joke with such a thing, come on let's go in, I'
