THE ALPHA'S DOWNFALL [24]
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:Why was I begging for something which I deserve in the first place?"If you will not punish me for failing to work and help the other slaves in cleaning the Great Hall, let me excuse myself, Alpha Hugh."He raised an eyebrow. "Are you in a hurry that you cannot spare the alpha your time? Why? You're going to meet your boyfriend?" he mocked. “Remember what I told you? I will kill your man.”If he was the beta, maybe he would push me to be with the other man. Unlike the alpha. I did not get him at all. He was unpredictable. "If you want to put it that way, my imaginary boyfriend, yes. I am going to meet him."“You’re pushing me to my limits, Autumn. Just because I am treating you nice does not mean that you can do whatever you want. I am your alpha. I am your mate as long as I do not reject you.”“As long as I did not reject you, too.”“Can you?”I averted my gaze. My wolf was still bound to follow him since he was my alpha. Nibbling my bottom lip, I said, “Fine. What do you

AUTUMN:I gave in to the temptations, I muttered to myself as I settled next to the beta. Of all the men who could accompany me to the alpha's house, it had to be the beta!We sat on the passenger's seat while someone was driving. No one would be able to hear our conversation since the beta was careful enough to lift up the sound proof window.Damn it! Who would say no to opportunities like that? Despite knowing the real reason behind asking me to live with them and be the alpha and beta’s personal maid, I still give it a go. If I will just suffer, I will suffer while earning cash at the same time. The alpha said that I could have whatever I wanted. And I will have it. I will buy my freedom and will be the one to reject him in the end. ‘You still have the chance to back out now,’ Trisha said. ‘No way. I will stick to my decision,’ I responded. I will make sure that I will use this opportunity to my advantage. I admitted that doubling my salary or tripling it was the one thing tha

AUTUMN:My heart raced. With our faces only inches apart and Beta Maddox’s hands wrapped around my waist, my mind could no longer think carefully. How could I when he is this close?The beta suddenly checked my body, looking for some wounds. Which was an exaggeration since we did not hit something. The diver just pulled into a stop. I was not able to brace for impact and that was it.“Are you okay? Is there some pain you felt?” he asked once more. He was seriously concerned about me. Why? “Careful when you drive!” he demanded. This kind of concern was melting my heart. My heart raced. “I’m okay. W-will you please stop touching me, Beta Maddox?” I asked. “M-move aside. I don't like you being this near to me.”Confusion passed in his eyes. As if realizing only now our situation, he let me go and averted his gaze. “Don’t think of anything that happened.”“I’m not,” I answered and straightened myself. “Next time, don’t pretend as if you are concerned about me, because we all know that

AUTUMN:What was happening to me? I should not even say anything to Beta Maddox or share anything like that. Nothing changed between us. He was my enemy. I hated him for rejecting me and I should not forget about that.I cleared my throat. “Forget about what I said.”“You can still go to school if you want. I heard that you have already finished your senior high. In the past. There were a lot of people out there who finished school even if they are old. Age should always be a number.”Was this man seriously giving me advice? From the beta who never failed to show that I was undeserving? I smirked as I continued to follow him. The alpha’s house was really massive and if I was the only one here, then it would take me a long time before I could finish this one. “You seemed to be updated about my life.” Did he ask someone? Or did he check my record? When? Why did he do that? What did it mean? “It flattered me that you are also curious about my life, Beta Maddox.”He was not really sayin

AUTUMN:The beta was freaking kissing me! The beta who never failed to let me know how much he hated me was kissing me?My head spun as I tried to understand what he was doing.Even my wolf did not know how to react. Nevertheless, his lips were as soft as a cotton candy. Which reminded me of our history as childhood best friends. He would give me one when his family would go out for a family outing. The beta pressed himself against me and kissed me deeply. He nibbled on my lips while his hands were busy roaming around my body.He was hard as rock, which contradicts my body.Sparks flew between us, and for a moment, I saw my wolf suddenly gave me some reaction— she sighed. Noticing that I was watching her reaction, she suddenly vanished in my head.Beta Maddox pressed his body against mine. His hands finally rested on my waist. His hands were warm just like his lips. I loved the feeling of his rocked hard body. He had done a lot of working out. Maybe he went to the gym with the al

AUTUMN:“Do I look like this is my child?” Beta Maddox asked. “Seriously?” My eyes darted to Beta Maddox and the child who was now glaring at me. They were not alike. I did not see any resemblance which only meant one thing. This child was the alpha. I was sure of it. But the way the child acted was more like the beta.Did Beta Maddox somewhat influence the child’s behavior? That could be the case if the two kept on being with each other. What was puzzling was the fact that the alpha was able to hide this boy from us. What was his reason or reasons? The pack did not know he had a son. Even rumors about him fathering a child was unheard off. “You two were nothing alike,” I whispered. Excluding the behavior. “I have a hunch who is the father of this child.”Until now, I could not believe that the alpha had a child. “Who is she, Uncle Maddox?” Uncle Maddox. That confirmed my hunch. The child was handsome. He had tantalizing eyes. Those eyes also showed a lot of maturity as if he h

THE ALPHA'S DOWNFALL [53]
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.
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. S
THE ALPHA'S DOWNFALL [48]
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
