THE ALPHA'S DOWNFALL [18]
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 difference between the beta and the alpha? They were both clear on what they wanted. The alpha was clear that he wanted me for whatever purposes he had. The beta made sure that I was not the one he needed since he was already betrothed to someone else. What if I told them that both of them were my mates and that the Moon Goddess played a sick prank on the three of us?But one thing was for sure. In the end, Alpha Hugh would only keep me in the pack. Never rejecting me. At least not for now. He would only hide the fact that we were mates to his pack.The beta and both the alpha did not want everyone to know about me. “Are we clear, Autumn?” he growled, when all I did was stare at him. “If I saw you with any man, I would kill you both. I don’t share what’s mine.”His breath fanned against my cheeks, inhaling the smell of the cigarettes on his mouth. His voice seemed like he meant it.“And why would you do that, Alpha Hugh? Why would you kill someone? You did not even lov

AUTUMN:It seemed like the devil was after my life.The incessant knocking on the door was enough to awaken the whole neighborhood. Groaning, I turned to my side while grabbing a pillow and used it to cover my ears. But my sensitive healing was not helping at all. The loud banging continued. It did not help to make my headache disappear. It felt like my head was going to split open.Images of what happened last night resurfaced. The alpha. “You looked gorgeous tonight and the dress fits you well.”Did he think he could sway me with those words? He could not. I wished he would just reject me. At least the beta did. “Open up!”Someone was shouting outside the door, telling me to open it.Forcing my eyes to open once again, the dirty ceiling of my room glared at me. Which reminded me that my room needed some cleaning too. “Open up!” he shouted for the nth time. “You will be punished for not responding!”Punish. Ah, right. They did not know that I was their future Luna. If they did

AUTUMN:Beta Maddox glared at me and if looks could kill, I would be dead by now. It seemed like he was not used to this kind of treatment coming from his subordinates. Too bad. After rejecting me, all my respect towards him was all thrown out the window. Respect begets respect. Lifting my hands, I said, “Okay, okay. I’m just teasing you. You will never feel any envy. You don’t have any feelings for me, that’s why you rejected me right away, Beta Maddox. No hard feelings. Of course you will always choose someone who would benefit you and that’s Sabrina. I got that.”I did not. He was an asshole. “You never tease an alpha or a beta,” he responded with a cold voice. “Know your place, slave.”Slave. What a nice endearment. “Geez. Fine. I was only trying to lighten the mood after what you did to the poor guard. You scared me right there. Imagine if you happened to kill him right in front of my room. Then his soul would keep on lingering here scaring the heck out of me.”I pretended

AUTUMN:Beta Maddox. I did not know what his deal was, but I definitely did not like how he was always emotional when it comes to whatever I say and do.Everything I say, there was always a reaction coming from him. As if he made it his mission to contradict everything that I said. All because I was his ex-mate? Or did he hate me that much?“You fucked someone?” the alpha asked, almost growling. I gave him a half shrug, trying to be indifferent. “Yeah. So what? You're not the only one who has secual needs. I need to do something about it. I have, too.”“Watch your mouth!” the beta snarled.Alpha Hugh stared at me hard as if he was trying to decipher if I was telling the truth or not. If he believed, good. There was no way I would tell him that I slept late because of what he said before we parted ways. It was embarrassing and unnecessary. I could not believe that I was affected by those damn words. “I'm just telling the truth. The alpha wanted the truth from my mouth and I gave

AUTUMN:I sucked a deep breath and faced Alpha Hugh. Was he for real? Was he serious? If he was, he was one scary man. “If you will only kill him, I would rather keep my mouth shut, Alpha Hugh.” I made a mental note to choose my words carefully as it would either endanger the person. “There is no way someone’s life will be at risk because of me.”‘That’s what you get for lying,’ Trisha commented. I bit my lower lip. “A name,” he said in a controlled voice. “If you keep on protecting that bastard, he is not the only one who will be punished. That includes you as well. My beast will not be able to save you if I toss you in the dungeon and put you there for a week.”A week? That was too much.“Now, give me a name, Autumn. If I were you, I would no longer protect him.”Perhaps taunting the alpha was not even a good idea at all. “I won’t give you one.”“And why is that?”“How could I when that man did not even exist?”“Are you messing up with me?” he growled. “Don’t you test my patie

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

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.
THE ALPHA'S DOWNFALL [49]
AUTUMN:Two days had passed since the last time that Eric had visited and he never had visited again. I did not know what had happened to him. Did I miss his presence? Kind of. He broke the monotony of my life. When I was with Eric, I could laugh easily.Still…it did not mean that I missed him. And even if he did not visit this house for a year, it was fine with me since I really did not wait for his presence. Life must go on whether he will come or not.“Are you done coloring the apple?” I asked. We were inside the kid’s room. The room was more spacious than my room at the pack. It was also tidy. There was another room for his playground where there was also a basketball ring.I envied this child. Even if he was still a child, he already experienced luxury, unlike me who already witnessed how difficult it was to live alone without my parents.If you did not only kill your family…I closed my eyes and breathed deeply.That voice would occasionally enter my mind every now and then.

ALPHA HUGH:“You will create a hole on the floor, Alpha Hugh,” Maddox commented. We were already inside the office after I walked Eric to the gate. Gabriel was being taken care of by Autumn. A couple of hours had passed, but my anger had not even subsided. I needed an outlet. Something that would make this anger disappear. Right. I will run later. “Are you perhaps bothered by that man?”I stopped pacing and barked, “Who?”“Eric. You seemed on edge after you had a talk with him.”How about you? Are you not bothered at all? I stared at him, checked for his reaction, and found that he did not feel any sense of jealousy despite Autumn being his mate. Were they mates? Or not. He seemed unaffected by Eric’s presence. Maybe Maddox was the type who could control himself. How pathetic I could be when it comes to self-control? I am an alpha. Self-control should be easy like that. I had not told him that I already knew. He sure did know how to act and pretend as if he did not feel anythi
THE ALPHA'S DOWNFALL [47]
AUTUMN:“What tricks?” I asked, confused. “Eric’s pick up line,” Aloha Hugh growled. “I told you before to be wary of him. He is not the man whom he is portraying. He might be a womanizer given how he looked.” The keyword was might. The alpha did not know for sure. When it comes to convincing someone, he should choose the right words. I snorted. “Now you’re acting as if you cared about me, Alpha Hugh. And you’re acting like a jealous mate. You don’t have the right, okay? You loved your Pamela. You can love her for as long as you want, but leave my love life out of it.”“I am trying to protect you.”“I don’t need your protection, damn it!”His eyes widened. “You think you know him but you don't.”“Stop it,” I warned. “Giving you a flying kiss? Telling sweet words? You have to think of his intention, Autumn. Whether it is pure or not. Think. You got to use your brain. Not your heart. You listen to your wolf. Listen to what name she is whispering in your head.”How dare he give advic
THE ALPHA'S DOWNFALL [46]
AUTUMN:A date, huh. Was Eric certain of inviting me to a date? I never experienced one. All I had were dates with my cleaning materials. I was secretly jealous of women in my pack who would casually buy dresses and make themselves even more gorgeous on their date. They would get excited and even asked me to clean their room after creating a mess. When I watched them in the mirror in awe, I realized I wanted to experience that, too. With my mate. My world and my dreams fell apart when Beta Maddox rejected me. The reality that no one would want to be with a cursed one slapped me. Hard.And here came Eric. There was someone who wanted to date me despite my social status. Someone who made me recall those dreams I had in the past. "Why would you ask me for a date?" I asked, wanting to clarify it. “There is nothing worthwhile in me. I’m boring to talk to. I am always straightforward. I’m not like the other women out there who would laugh at your corny jokes. I never put any makeup o
THE ALPHA'S DOWNFALL [45]
AUTUMN:‘Do what?’ Alpha Hugh asked. ‘Telling me that no one will like someone like me. How could you be so cruel? You’re not the only one who deserved to be happy. I too deserved to be happy! Stop meddling with my life! You’re not my brother! I am not your sister. Back off, Alpha Hugh!’‘I want you to be happy. I only want you to be safe. I don’t want you to get hurt by meeting someone whom you don’t even know.’Using our connection, I made him feel how much I hated him. ‘Again with that bullshit. If I tell you that you are my happiness, what will you do with it?’ I spat. Alpha Hugh was speechless. That was the reaction that I kind of expected. It served him right. He should know here he should stick his fucking nose. He should know that sometimes, his opinion was already unwanted.'Do you desire someone who loves someone else? Someone who could not forgive the mother of his child?' Alpha Hugh commented. 'I don't want to be unfair to you, Autumn,' he explained softly inside my hea
