Margareth was shocked after she found out that her chosen mate, Xavier, flirted with his mistress at their party. However when she confronted him, Xavier refused to admit it! He also didn't want to reject Margareth as his mate. Frustrated and hurt, Margareth didn't know what to do until Alpha Bastian, the renowned and intimidating leader of the Red Iris Pack, stepped in. He proposed a bet: if Xavier's mistress was pregnant within a month, Xavier would be forced to reject Margareth as his mate. The stakes were high, but Margareth, desperate to escape the humiliation, agreed. Even though, she need her pack to join Bastian's!

I, as the Luna of Brown Iris Pack, never imagined that my pack would be a host of the yearly party. The idea ran through my mind since the pack that I took care of was not a top-tier one like the Apollo Pack. As I got ready with a dark blue denim dress, I went down the stairs with white high heels. Subsequently, I heard the voice of the beta of the pack, Blake, "Good morning, my Luna. Here are the details that we have got for the yearly party."
"Morning too, Blake. Thanks for delivering the list," I replied with a gentle smile as my grey eyes observed the stuff written on the paper.
Observing for a while, I said, "I guess we need more stocks for wines and chairs. I hear that the witches will also attend the party. Even, we need some of them to help the front guards if there is a danger coming."
"All right. Later, I'll update the info on the event service." Blake nodded and said.
"Okay. And then, I think we need .." I delayed the words when I saw that the decoration needed to improve. "More flowers near the throne place where I sit next to Alpha Xavier," I continued resolutely.
With the words uttered, Beta Blake stared at me with a wondering look in his brown eyes and asked, "Didn't Alpha Xavier tell you that the decoration near the throne will only be the brown curtain?"
"No, he didn't. Even, since last night, I can't contact him through the mind-link." I clarified with a shocked expression.
At the same moment, my wolf, Emma, suggested, "You must look for him soon, Margie. I believe that he is not busy with this yearly party thing. What a lazy Alpha!"
Then, I replied to Emma, "I know he lacks responsibility, but you can't always judge him as a bad person, Em."
"I bet for it!" Emma kept believing by whispering in my mind.
At that point, Blake said, "I think it is better to discuss the decoration for the throne with Alpha Xavier to avoid misunderstanding, my Luna."
"Well, let me contact him through mind-link once again," I said.
As I focused on contacting Xavier, I felt that he was unreachable even though I called his name a few times or I stated my reasons to him. There were no replies from him. It was like he was far away from this palace. It was very unusual for him to be like this. Then, I remarked, "He doesn't reply to me seriously. I need to meet him!"
Blake just frowned and referred, "If I'm not mistaken, I saw him at the horse stable. He was chatting with Aiden about horse racing."
"Okay, Blake. Thanks for the information." I nodded whenever I started walking and left the palace.
During the time that my high heels touched the ground and the fresh morning air enters my nostrils, my grey eyes look around the yard where some people walked and passed through. Even, a few of them greeted and smiled at me politely. However, my mind was full of the alpha and why he can't be called. Was he ignoring my connection?
Whenever I walked through the yard and almost left the castle area, I heard the husky familiar voice which was owned by the stable master, Aiden. "Good Morning, Luna Margareth. It seems that you are looking up for someone." He uttered.
"Um, yeah. I'm looking for Alpha Xavier. Didn't you talk with him a few minutes ago?" I retorted honestly.
"Yes, I was, and he said that he was quite stressed regarding the yearly party preparation," Aiden said with his irresolute gaze.
"All right. I think I know where he is now. Thank you for the assistance," I replied immediately while he walked passed through.
"My pleasure, Luna Margareth," Aiden waved his right hand as he walked further.

With the golf cart ridden by a driver, I sat with uneasy thoughts running in my mind. It was caused by Xavier being unable to be reached through mind-link. It was not like the usual thing for me whenever I tried to reach him, but it failed. Then, a couple of minutes forward, the cart stopped, and I stepped on the stony grounds, which was a part of the pathway to Aventia Castle.
Once, I unlocked the door with the backup key that I always carried, I entered the castle and looked for the tall and handsome figure. However, there was none of his existence on the first floor. As my heels tapped on the floors gradually, I then checked if he was in the reading room. Nonetheless, whenever the door was opened, he was not there. Being worried and inquisitive at the same time, I kept looking for him while stepping on the stairs that led me to the second floor.
"What makes you disappear all of a sudden?? I truly depend on your help in this annual party, Xavier." I said in my mind while doing mind-link, but it failed. He was seriously unreachable.
While I walked around the hall where the guest rooms were located, I heard the noises from one of them. I directly walked towards the middle door and I heard a woman's voice. "Uh, ehm, yessh, Xa-vier. Spank meh!" I blinked a bit when I heard the name of my beloved Alpha mentioned in the moans.
At this time, I realized something that I had never imagined before. The Alpha whom I cherished the most had a mistress. He, who had a strong will to marry me from the start, played with fire. The tears also ran down my eyes since I felt hurt and disappointed all at once. However, after I brushed away the tears, I gathered my bravery to open the door that wasn't locked coincidentally.
Once the wooden door was opened, the view of the steamy love-making was seen clearly. Again, my tears came out as I glanced towards the man who surprisingly stared at me and tried to stop his penetrating activity. "M-Margie?! I-I.." He stuttered.
"Am I bothering your business?? I’m sorry, then." I started as I wiped the tears on my tiny face. As the tears streamed down my face, my heart was shattered into pieces. My expectation about him being loyal and caring to me was vanished immediately. Moreover, I began to doubt about myself and love towards him. Wasn’t I loyal enough to him? Weren’t the deeds I do to comfort him more than enough? Was I worthless to be loved genuinely?

Selena POV After I left Brown Iris Castle, I resolved to go to the Black Fur Pack by bus. The journey might be around one and a quarter hour, but it was finer than staying in the castle and bickering with the dumbest husband and Alpha. I knew I ever fell for him, and so he did. However, it seemed that I only wanted him for a short time being. From the recent perspective, I realized that I just obsessed with him since he had greater status than mine, as an omega, previously. In contrast to my feelings to Richard, I felt more open to him although he was just a Gamma of Black Fur Pack, my origin pack before I resided and got married to Xavier. Moreover, I could be myself more around him. I didn't have to show my sexiness too much, unlike when I was with Xavier. As I seated myself on the bus, the slight cold air from the air conditioner on the top kissed the tip of my head. At this point, I also noticed that the bus was not really crowded. There were so many empty seats around,
Xavier POV "CLING!" The little noise of the padlock hitting the steel bars of the cell was apprehended. Then, I put the key in my pocket and sneered at Margie, "Enjoy yourself behind this luxurious cage. I'll release you when you change your mind and decide to return to me and this pack." She stared at me flatly and responded sarcastically, "Thank you for letting me stay here. No matter how long I will be alive, I choose to die instead of returning to you and fall into your love trap. That's the silliest thing I really regret and do!" Feeling the fury of anger heating my heart, I could only inhale gradually. I tried to manage myself to her mind game. I understood why she did the sarcasm. She was so eager to rise my blood pressure. Whenever I really got mad, she would be happier, feeling that she had knocked me down mentally. After staring at her for a moment, I decided
Bastian POV With the deal we made, we all agreed not to use our off-roaders to trespass the area we were running on. Based on our own efforts, we all, in our wolf forms, ran and followed the guidance of the monkey leader. The noise of our feet swinging accompanied our journey to the witch's place. Even, the slides of the fallen leaves were clearly heard while I ran along with Carter and Dave. They were also in their wolf forms. However, I felt a bit distinct although I was also in my wolf form. The reason was I was in a maroon hoodie as I ran and passed the area, while Dave and Carter let their wolves naked and show the divine abs. They looked more like the natural shifters than me. I was like a pet with a fancy piece of clothes. For some moments onwards, the monkey leader stopped in front of the tree-style castle and said, "We've arrived." "Is this the place?!" Dave running after me and Carter reached as he inquired to the monkey. "Yes, it is. It is finished to show y
On another circumstance, Margie was sitting on the garden bench. She let the sunlight kissed her fairy skin although her cheeks were red like tomatoes. Yet, it did not distract her attention because her hatred feeling to Xavier was bigger. There were a few causes of why she pursed her lips with her sharp stares. However, among the troubles, she felt so done with him, the only beef she was resentful of was how Xavier treated him. The ex-husband whom she ever loved acted as if he was genuine and sincere to get back together. Besides that, what really annoyed her was his sudden announcement about Luna Margareth's return. "D*mmit! He gets more disgusting day by day! He should never make a silly announcement about me. The strong reason is I'll never get back to him. No matter how good he treats me, I won't return to his embrace. He doesn't deserve the second chance!" Margie spoke in her mind. At that ti
Bastian POV When the sky was still dark and the time in my watch was around 02.10AM, we arrived at the Silver Fur Pack Palace. With the travel bags I pulled and the backpack hanging on my shoulders, I got off from the jeep car and followed Dave and Carter to enter the luxurious palace. It was as big as my mansion, but the inner view inside of the building was actually small. It was not really spacious either due to the placement of the certain furnitures and antiques. Carter loved collecting antique vases and renaissance pictures. "Matt!" Carter shouted as his orbs explored the first floor, trying to find the owner of the name. I knew who he meant by because I ever stayed in the palace twice. If this moment was included, it was considered as the third time. In less than few seconds, the man with a hundred and seventy centimeters appeared in the formal white shirt and black pants. "What's the matter, Alpha Carter?" He inquired carefully. It seemed that he was so obedient wit
The next two days, on Saturday in October, Bastian in his wolf form was picked up by Carter and Dave. The three Alphas decided to find Margie together with the help of Marina, the witch staying in the middle of Archipellago forest. With the dark blue Jeep Wrangler, they were on their way which took around two and a half hours to reach the destination. During that time, the Alphas exchanged the story and words. At first, it was done by Carter and Dave for casting the uneasiness feelings in Bastian's heart. However, as the minutes passed, Bastian joined the conversation. He did it because of the reminder of Doctor Carson to always maintain his stress level in the stable state. If he didn't do it, he might overthink each tragedy or hard situation, and he would not be able to shift into the human form. In the middle of discussion, Carter suddenly changed the topic by asking Dave, "Anyway, how is your little sister? Is she still hopeless romantic?" "Not anymore. She finally deci
Margareth POV "Are you challenging me, my ex-wife?" the male figure with his undercut hairstyle inquired as his orbs observed the details of my face carefully. To be frank, his stares were my favorite thing about him, especially when our mate bonds were still intact. I always made an eye contact with him whenever he teased me. It was lovely and cute before I witnessed his adultery by my own orbs. In contrast, his stares for me this time felt insincere. What I found mostly through his brown orbs were ego and lusts. Then, I rolled my eyes and replied, "Let's consider it as yes. I challenge you, so that you could not mess up with me anymore." In a split second, his widened gentle smile changed into the mean one, the sign that there was an ulterior motive of him for kidnapping me. "It seems that you are braver than I ever know. Does the royal Alpha teach you to be a badass she-wolf?" He sneered. I then smirked, squinted my eyes, and replied, "No. I'm actually fearless, but I h
Beta Asthon POV In an hour forward, after Gamma Cole helped me to move the Alpha in his room, I dialed Doctor Carson directly. Through the speaker, the waiting tones greeted me, expecting me to wait although I knew there would be a chance for the important figure not to answer the call. "Come on! Just answer the call, Doc!" I muttered as I looked at the Alpha being fastened on the bed like a patient with mental illness. While Gamma Cole decided to prepare the mini medical drawers, the place which was used by the Alpha for placing the pills and other ointments. Then, in a split second, the call was connected. "Good Day. How can I help you?" Doctor Carson opened the conversation. "Doc, this is me Beta Ashton of Red Iris Pack. My Alpha has shifted into the wolf form. Can you please come over for the medical check-up?" I mentioned the summary while expecting the doctor's positive a
Margareth POV Reacting to my question with a crafty smile, his phone buzzing distracted his attention. "Wait for a moment." He uttered while answering the call with the ear buds plugged on his ears. "Yeah, Sellie? Have you arrived?" He uttered casually while driving and passing the rows of vehicle in the street. "Yes, babe. I just arrive. Now, Nathan is practising on how to float." The she-wolf voice was heard a bit from the phone speaker. I was not eavesdropping, but that was how I apprehended the sound. "Have fun with him and always put your eyes on." He reminded her. It was like he wanted to make me jealous for being attentive to her. Yet, it did not work on me because my feelings to him had died long time ago. In less than five minutes, the call was ended. Then, his tenor v
