THE ALPHA'S DOWNFALL [13]
AUTUMN:Alpha Hugh kept on staring at me as if I was some fine specimen under the microscope. Back then, his gaze was full of innocence and warmth, but right now, it seemed as if he was stripping me of the clothes I wore. My breathing labored. I was the one who suggested this place, knowing no one would be allowed to come here. In fact, only a few people (slaves) were allowed to come in this place to clean. Strictly. “Why did you give me this dress?” I asked instead. There was no way that he would know that we were mates. We no longer were children who wanted to be each other's mates. His forehead formed a knot. “Dress? Do you think I would waste my time buying an omega a dress?”My mouth opened and closed. After a couple of seconds, I found myself asking, “You did not buy this for me?”“Why would I?”My eyebrows furrowed. Did the beta lie? Then, who gave me this dress? “He said…”“Who?”“The beta.” “Maddox.” He threw back his head and laughed. “Why would he lie about that? I

AUTUMN:The alpha was lying, right? Maybe he was back to his games. He loved pranks in the past. He must be because why would he accept someone like me? The beta rejected me so I did not think he would do the opposite to me. ‘Why are you not even thankful? Someone finally wanted us and did not consider rejecting us,’ Trisha muttered. Clenching my fist, I answered my wolf, ‘Do I have to say that I was thankful to him for not rejecting us? Don't you think the end game of this is just another rejection? If it's the same ending, I would rather want this to end right now. The alpha is toying with our emotions. There is no way he would accept us. He will only make us his plaything.’I folded my arms in front of my chest and returned the same intensity of gaze to him. He cocked his eyebrows. “When I heard you want to talk to me in private, you got me excited there for a bit, Autumn.”“Why? You believed I will fuck you?”He laughed. “Where was the innocent Autumn in the past? It looked lik

AUTUMN:This woman got to be kidding me. To say that I was one of the alpha’s women was something I did not expect. I was nothing compared to them. They all came from good families and backgrounds. While me? What could I be proud of? Being the cursed one of the pack?Alpha Hugh stared at me for a few minutes and responded to the woman, “You don't have to be jealous. This woman is my…” he trailed while wearing a smirk on his face.My grip on the glass tightened. He was clearly toying with me. I was about to respond, to correct the woman, but bit the inside of my cheeks to stop me from saying anything. It will never help. I should keep my mouth shut. Slaves like me did not have to defend oneself. The woman glared at me. I could smell her intense jealousy as the alpha continued his silence. “You’re what? Your friend? Don't use that alibi, Alpha Hugh. I won't ever buy that one. You never had a woman friend. All the women around you were either your girlfriends or fuck buddy. This w

AUTUMN:Beta Maddox.When we were children, he and the alpha were already fond of asking questions. If they were curious about something, they will make sure to know why it happened or why it worked like that. Until now, he was carrying that attitude. Lifting my chin, I asked back, "Why are you curious?" Which reminded me that I had not asked him about the dress. Who gave the dress if it was not the alpha?He gave me a half-shrug. "The people were whispering. They believed you would be his next whore given the past that the three of us had." Whore. "Why would I whore myself to him?""What do you think, Autumn? What else? So that you will start brand new. If you becomes the alpha's woman, you will never be branded as the cursed one of the pack. Everything would be to your advantage.""I would rather die than fuck the alpha." I would rather die than give myself to a man who did not even see my worth as a woman. I would rather give myself to someone who sees me as a woman. He looke

AUTUMN:If looks could kill, Sabrina would kill us right now. She was glaring at us and it looked like she would pounce any minute. The worst thing that this woman could do was create a scandal and pull my hair in front of the public.It was because of the beta. Him approaching me would only attract a lot of chaos from this woman. “It’s time for you to run away, Beta Maddox. Your mate will kill me. See how her nostrils flared?” Sabrina clenched her fist as if she was promising herself that she would punish me if she ever reached us.I was not scared of her. At all. What I was worried about was Trisha— my wolf and what she would do. “She’s not my mate,” he corrected, as if there was a need to do so. Which he did not have to. “What's going on between us is complicated,” he continued. There's no need for you to explain! You really did not have to! Don't you dare confuse me as if you’re going to accept me if Sabrina is out of the equation. “She is your mate,” I corrected. “You had cho

AUTUMN:Beta Maddox personally chose the dress for me. Those words had been ringing non stop in my mind for a couple of minutes until I was able to give him a reply. Yes. It took me longer than that. “But you did not give it to me? I mean…you did not buy it for me? You did not spend your money on this dress?”It was only a dress, Autumn. Why can’t you let it go?It might only be a dress, but it meant a lot if that person had given it out of good will. That he had given it because he wanted to. And that no one was forcing him, too. After my family's death, I had been living alone, trying to survive even if I did not deserve to live. And this dress…I was already getting emotional. Damn it. Beta Maddox averted his gaze for a couple of minutes, before he said, “The owner said that I could not divulge the identity of him. He wanted it to remain that way.”Cannot? Or he did not want to?“Whatever. Save it to yourself. I don't care about it, anyway. I only wanted to know if it was real

AUTUMN:Like a child, Sabrina stomped her foot and held her ground, refusing to listen to the beta. “She’s the one who started it! She wants to take you away from me! This bitch. I don't know how she remained alive after what she did to her family. She does not deserve to live!”My inside shook upon hearing my family on his lips. I clenched my fist and tried to stop myself from slapping her. How dare she mention my family with her mouth. Although she was also right. I did not deserve to live after everything. “Sabrina. That's not something that you would say in public,” the beta warned.The woman slapped his hands away. Now, we finally grabbed almost everyone’s attention. I just wanted to disappear. A slave fighting with a free she-wolf, especially the woman of the second most powerful person in the pack, was not something that would be taken lightly. I could be punished for this or may attract a lot of enemies.Damn it. Talking about my family was not something I took lightly.

AUTUMN:“It was the beta who wanted this party,” Alpha Hugh insisted. A lie.There was no way he was telling the truth. Why would he when he was facing an omega? An omega who was his mate?Men were full of lies and I hated how I was seeing one. They lie just to get what they want. And right now, even if I could not explain it, I could feel that the alpha was lying straight at my face.“Oh, please, Alpha Hugh. You don’t have to tell me that shit. I also don’t care if you were the one behind this party or not. That’s not what I wanted from you. I want your rejection. I wanted to be free from you and from any man that ever existed.” “I’m not lying to you, Autumn. It was the beta.”“Oh, please. What a load of crap. You enjoyed your time with that woman. You went out with her.”“I did, but I….” He stopped, and after realizing something, shook his head. “Never mind. Your face tells me you will not believe anything I said. Jealousy is written all over your face, Autumn.” He smirked.“I’m

AUTUMN:The three men continued to give me disapproving looks as if they were against my relationship with Eric. Wasn’t it funny? Nothing was going on between me and him, yet here they were, already showing their disapproval. Especially Maddox. I could see that he was not satisfied at all. Was he freaking jealous?Or maybe he was angry that I found someone as good looking as Eric?I mentally shook my head. He was the most difficult to read. He rarely spoke of his feelings, unlike when we were children. He was always vocal when he was around me while Hugh was the serious type. “My first mate does not want me, so it’s fine,” I announced. Little by little, it seemed as if my wolf had started to accept the pain of the rejection. Did the pain disappear? It did not, but it was slowly disappearing. I was hopeful that one day…it will fade away. And when that happens, I will stick my tongue at Maddox. “What about your second chance mate?” Cedric pressed.This was acting as if we were al
THE ALPHA'S DOWNFALL [57]
AUTUMN:What the heck was wrong with Maddox? Was this because he wanted to punish me for how I talked to him this past few days or what? When I finally had someone who was brave enough to confess he liked me, he would start to ruin everything? "Why would you do that?""I'm just doing my job when the alpha is not here. I will be the head of this house. Do not think that there is some ulterior motive behind. There is not, Autumn.”There was not when he clearly showed that he was against me going on a date with Eric? My gaze shifted to Eric. He never loses his cool despite what the beta had said. How did his Dad raise him again? It was unlike men to be this calm and always smiling. Going out with Eric would be nice. It would be like breathing fresh air where I could not see him for a while.Eric smiled again, showing me his dimples. "It's fine, Autumn. I respect the beta's decision. I will just wait for the alpha until he gets here.""He won't be coming here. He has a lot of things to
THE ALPHA'S DOWNFALL [56]
AUTUMN:There were a lot of things I wanted to tell Beta Maddox. A lot of words which then again would only turn into something useless and a waste of my time.“You're giving too much energy you hate, " he commented.“I don't fucking care at all,” I said, and walked passed ahead of him until I reached the gate.I was right. It was not the alpha, but Eric, bringing another bouquet of flowers which I told him did not matter at all.He scratched his neck seeing me. “Hi?” he regretted not being sure at all.“Eric.”“Autumn…” he said with a longing expression on his face. As if we had been separated for a long time. “I missed you already.”Opening the gate, I let him in while the beta was watching my every move.‘Can you at least go farther away?’ I asked inside his mind. I did not know if he would answer me or not. As long as he knew that I did not appreciate his presence.‘Why would you drive me away?’ he responded inside my head. ‘We need privacy. It's like peeing, Beta Maddox. We w
THE ALPHA'S DOWNFALL [55]
AUTUMN: Before I knew Beta Maddox's response, he suddenly kicked me out of his mind. He was territorial even if in his mind. “You have nothing to do with it,” he said. Cedric raised his eyebrows and stared at us while holding the kid's hand. “You’re still not yet done?” “About what?”“About your tiny argument?” he said, quoting the air when he uttered the word tiny. Fighting is bad. It’s not a good thing if the kid will be able to witness you fight.”Forcing a smile and showing that it was not true, I said, “We are not fighting. Why would we?”“Daddy said that only married couples fight.”“That’s not true. Friends also fight.” I remembered when the three of us had our pity fighters over some apple. I wanted the apple to be peeled. But the two did not want to. And in the end, the day of our supposed to be eventful picnic was ruined because I stormed out all because of that damned apple. “They fight and they become friends again,” Beta Maddox stated. Did we make up after that fi
THE ALPHA'S DOWNFALL [54]
AUTUMN:Beta Maddox growled at me while Cedric was watching our engagement. “You’re so sweet,” he commented. “Is this how you show your affections towards each other?”“We’re not sweet!” the beta and I said at the same time. I scoffed at him and he glared at me. The only thing that he was good at was glare at me. “I hate him,” I exclaimed. “I don’t care if you tell the alpha about our connection. I don’t care at all.”“You don’t care because you already told the alpha about it,” Maddox said. I did. What can you do right now, Maddox? No matter what you do, I will never tell you the truth. Overthink. Worry. That's what I wanted you to do. “Whoa. You two are different.”“We can never be the same, Cedric. I hate his guts. And I was glad we are no longer bound to each other.”“So you two rejected each other.”“We did and that was one of the best decisions I made in my entire life,” I commented. "You're not the only one," Maddox seconded.Cedric chuckled and flinched when he felt the

AUTUMN:Hot tears rolled down from my eyes while glaring at Beta Maddox. I was the one who slapped him, but I was the one who was crying right now. My hands shook. “Are you done ruining my confidence? Are you happy, Maddox?”I never bothered to hide how much I hated him. Let him know that he was not the only one who did not like being paired with him.He faced me. There was an imprint of my hands on his cheeks. Good. I wanted to add another hand imprint on the other side of his cheeks. “Do you even think I like you even? I would rather die alone than being paired with you. Seeing you makes me sick, Maddox. Why are you even proud of yourself? Without your family's name, you are nothing. Without Hugh, you are nothing.” He did not know it, but I was there when his Dad told him to befriend the alpha. He added that having Hugh by his side would be beneficial for them and that Maddox would be able to use it when the right time comes. The right was when they both became an adult and b
THE ALPHA'S DOWNFALL [52]
AUTUMN:I was expecting that it would take a long time before Hugh and Maddox arrived in the house since it was a long drive from the pack and here, but it only took an hour before they arrived. "Where is your man?" Hugh asked the moment he arrived. He was not listening. "I don't have a man. What the heck are you talking about? Why would I have a man? I did not slave myself in taking care of your son and asked someone to come here and do whatever you were imaging right now in your head." Seeing how he had reacted, I was certain he was imagining the worst. Could I slap him for once? I was not that kind of woman for crying out loud!"You said a man is sleeping in your room.""Yes, I did. He is currently in the living room. I wanted to drag him to the second floor to the guest house but he was too heavy. I also cleaned the blood on the floor. See the blood on my shirt? This came from the man. You can thank me later. You are welcome.""Blood? Is there a fight? Are you okay?" Hugh asked
THE ALPHA'S DOWNFALL [51]
ALPHA HUGH:I grabbed my jacket and put it on after dropping the call from Autumn's link. She was with a man while taking care of my son? How could she do it? Maddox raised his eyebrows and asked, “Where are you going? Can’t you see there’s a lot of documents that need your attention? Plus there’s an incoming war where we might be involved. Hugh. I do understand that you wanted to see Gabby, but now is not the right time for that. It can wait.”“A war will never take place. I will do my best not to get involved.” It was an ongoing rift between the neighboring pack and mine. It started from Dad’s time and until now, it had never been solved. As the time went by, the conflict turned even worse. “There should never be a war. We cannot afford to lose innocent lives, Maddox.”“Right. I’m glad that you know it. Where are you again?”“Home.”“Home? Why? Did something happen to Gabby?” He rose from his seat and grabbed his coat, too. When it comes to my son, he will leave all the th
THE ALPHA'S DOWNFALL [50]
AUTUMN:My heart hammered against my chest. I wanted to go to my room and grab some knives. If things get worse, at least I have something to defend myself. But it would only be a waste of time. With calculated steps, I went downstairs, tiptoeing. Was I stupid for walking downstairs like this without any weapon in my hand? Yes, I was. I should lock the door and wait until the thief steals everything. This was not my house. I did not care anything about the objects inside. Besides, the alpha was already filthy rich. He could buy and replace anything that would be stolen. But my life? It will never be replaced. There was only one foolish Autumn who died from fighting off the thief whom she did not know if she could handle or not. But no. I had to play a hero for the kid and go after the culprit.I might die because of this. But at least, I will die of a noble death. What will you do if you're already six feet below the ground?Dang.I never dreamed of dying and becoming a hero.
