I Am the Gamma’s Daughter

last update Last Updated: 2025-01-06 00:10:52

The hall shimmered with golden chandeliers and the chatter of high-ranking officials. Their laughter and celebratory toasts filled the air, drowning out the memories of blood and battle. I stood at the entrance, cradling my swollen belly, my eyes hollow and dark. A blood-stained necklace dangled from my hand, the cold metal biting into my palm.

“I am the Gamma’s daughter,” I whispered, my voice barely audible over the clinking of glasses. My shaky body moved forward, through the crowd, the cold path beneath my feet leading me to the man at the center, laughing with pride and ego.

My voice grew louder with each step. “A frontliner, a commander, and the daughter of Gamma Celeriac, who gave his life protecting this pack!”

The room fell silent. All eyes turned to me, the Luna of the Moonlit Silver Wolf Pack. I could see the concern in their eyes as they took in my appearance, the once adored Luna now in her worst situation.

“Elysia,” Alpha Jonathan Hornet called, his voice laced with feigned concern. He pushed his way through the crowd, his handsome face twisted into an expression of mock sincerity. “What’s wrong? You’re distressed. Let me help you.”

I scoffed, narrowing my eyes at the man I had once loved. “Don’t pretend to care. Not tonight.” My voice cracked, but I refused to let it break me. “I gave you everything, Jonathan. My loyalty. My love. My soul. And for what?”

He hesitated, his eyes darting nervously around the crowd as they began to take notice. “Elysia, please. Your father’s sacrifice wasn’t in vain. He died so we could have a future—so our child could have a future.”

The mention of my father ignited a fire within me. “Sacrifice?” I spat, stepping closer. “Don’t you dare use that word. He didn’t sacrifice himself. You killed him!”

Gasps rippled through the room. Jonathan’s mask of concern slipped, and I saw the cold, calculating man beneath. “Watch your tongue, Luna,” he hissed, his voice low and dangerous. “You’re speaking nonsense.”

I trembled with fury, but I stood my ground, pointing a finger at him. “Don’t lie to me. There are warriors who saw you—who heard you give the order.”

The crowd murmured, their unease growing. Jonathan’s jaw tightened, his eyes narrowing. " Don't accuse me of something nonsense like this, Luna. I don't want to go hard on you!" His voice was filled with fury and disappointment. " I loved him like I did you. He was the father I never had! You knew how much I respected him!"

I couldn't help but laugh at this point. How could he lie through his teeth like it was nothing? I never knew that he was such a good actor. How did I not see him through? He was always a good actor.

" Jonathan! Do you take me as a stupid!!?" I retorted, exhaustion and heartbreak weighing over my shoulders. I knew there was no going back,

" Sir Vale!" I turned, calling a man, my father's loyal, " Please tell me what he did to my father!"

Sir Vale lowered his gaze. " Sorry, Luna! I don't know what you are talking about!" He rose his eyes, looking at me with an uncertain gaze, " Sir Celeriac died with respect. He protected us-!"

" Commander Vale!!!" I snarled, " You of all people - Don't betray me and my Dad!" My heart shattered into pieces. Suddenly I realized that I was standing all alone against him, Jonathan, the cruel, selfish man.

" I am sorry but this is the truth!" Vale said, walking out of the Hall room immediately. Hah! So they were betraying me!

“Luna! You should calm down!" Jonathan tried to touch me.

"Your father was a liability. He was weak. This pack needed strength, not sentimentality. But we respect him and his sacrifice!”

Weak? The word burned through my veins, but my anger kept me steady. “He protected you when no one else would. He trained you, trusted you, and you repaid him with betrayal!”

Jonathan took a step forward, his voice lowering to a venomous whisper. “Enough of this drama. Go to your room and calm yourself. If something happens to my son because of your hysteria—”

I let out a laugh, sharp and unhinged. “Your son? You mean the child you forced me to carry because your mistress couldn’t give you an heir?”

The room froze, the color draining from Jonathan’s face. He started stammering, noticing the judgmental gazes falling upon him.

“Another woman?" The whispers were clear and loud. Having a mistress was a disgusting act of a Man.

“Enough! It’s just a misunderstanding!” Jonathan snapped, his voice shaking with anger.

“You think I didn’t know?” I continued, my voice rising with each word. “You think I didn’t notice the nights you disappeared, the scent of another woman on you? You’re a coward, Jonathan. A liar and a murderer.”

His rage boiled over. “Shut up!” he roared. “You’ve always been unstable, obsessed with your father. It’s unnatural, disgusting! Now you are acting like a total nuts”

His words hit me like a slap, but I refused to falter. “How dare you?” I whispered, fury trembling in my voice. “My father was the only person who ever truly loved me. And you—”

“You are being too much! Don’t force me to go hard on you!” Jonathan shouted, raising his hand.

Before he could strike, I caught his wrist with an iron grip, my gaze icy. “You don’t scare me anymore,” I growled.

I let go of his wrist, stepping back. My hands trembled as they moved to my belly, the weight of my actions settling upon me.

“Elysia, stop!” Jonathan shouted, panic creeping into his voice as I raised a blade. The room erupted into chaos, but no one dared to approach.

I pressed the knife against my stomach, my eyes locking with his. “I am the Gamma’s daughter. And I won’t let my child grow up under your shadow.”

" Wh-What are doing? Take it down! Don't hurt my child!"

He approached me, worried crept in his eyes. I knew his obsession over this child.

But he never knew that it was stupid to mess with Gamma's daughter. Even if the world went against us, I would take revenge for my father.

“Elysia, no!” he cried, reaching for me, thinking I would stab myself. But why would I sacrifice my last remaining family for him?

My voice was barely a whisper now, each word drenched in pain. “I loved you. I gave you everything. And you destroyed me. But-”

Before his hand reached me, I shoved the knife into his chest. Like he dug my father's heart out, I wanted to tear his black heart into pieces.

The silence fell through the room. Jonathan was too stunned to react before he grabbed my hands, " You Bitch! How could you -!"

I tried to take it out and stab for second time. However, a sharp pain and a metal edge cut through my body. I looked down at my stomach, bleeding out.

" Who-?" My voice barely could escape from my mouth as another stab came from the left side of my belly.

My knees buckled, and I collapsed onto the red-stained carpet. The crowd moved forward, and Jonathan held up a trembling hand, trying to stop fhem. " Stop My son!" He was wailing...

My breaths came in shallow gasps. The pain was fading, replaced by a strange numbness. I looked up at Jonathan, my vision blurring.

Who were they? Who was behind me? Another betrayal?

“I curse you,” I whispered, barely able to speak. “You will never know the joy of being a father. You will never find peace. I curse you all.”

My head tilted back, my eyes staring at the ceiling as my world darkened.

---

I opened my eyes to a strange, soft light. The pain was gone, replaced by a sense of weightlessness. A gentle hand caressed my cheek, and I turned to see a figure bathed in silver light.

“Who are you?” I asked, my voice trembling.

The figure smiled. “I am the Moon Goddess.”

My breath hitched. “Why are you here? Am I dead?”

“Not yet,” the Goddess replied. “You have suffered greatly, Elysia. More than you deserved. I made a mistake in letting your path unfold this way.”

Tears welled in my eyes. “It’s too late. I’ve lost everything. My father, my child, my mate…”

The Goddess knelt beside me, taking my hand. “What if I gave you a second chance? To protect your father, to make different choices. Would you accept it?”

My heart ached with longing. “A second chance?”

“Yes,” the Goddess said. “But it will not be easy. You will face the same challenges, the same betrayals. Only your choices will determine the outcome.”

I closed my eyes, the weight of my regrets pressing down on me. “I’ll do it,” I whispered. “I’ll protect him this time. I’ll make things right.”

The Goddess smiled, her light growing brighter. “Then live well, Elysia Celeriac. Remember who you are—the Gamma’s daughter.”

The light enveloped me, and I felt myself falling, my body jolting as if awakening from a nightmare.

“Elysia!” a familiar voice shouted, pulling me back to reality. I gasped, my eyes snapping open to see my father standing before me, his expression stern but filled with love.

My burning pain in my shoulder completely threw me out of my daze, as a sharp blade ran its edge on my flesh.

“Focus!” he barked. “We’re not here to play games!”

    At the age of 12, I was blessed with my Wolf, unlike most kids. At 13, I held my claws against the Commander's neck. By 16, I had already graduated early from College in defense and was promoted to a Warrior in my father's team. At 18, I was a commander, frontliner, and healer with my Wolf.At 19, I had yet to meet my mate. For seven years, I waited for him, but I didn’t find him. Before my 20th birthday, I was invited to the Late Alpha's birthday banquet as an honorable guest, and there I met Jonathan, the man who was a heartthrob to every woman in our pack.From that day on, my life revolved around him. I was assigned as his personal assistant, mostly like a Beta, helping him with everything. Since my father, Gamma Celeriac, was leading the wars and other military matters, I was asked by Alpha to accompany the soon-to-be Alpha in making every important decision.My love for him grew, and so did my blindness. There were red flags about him that made me uncomfortable—his obsession wit

    In my memories, he was perfect, always the one who couldn't do anything wrong. I was so blinded by his perfect manipulation and fake love that his words became my command. When it came to someone he deemed an opponent, I was his sword. Whatever he did became, in my eyes, an example of a great ruler. I was like a child captivated by a poorly written book, drawn to the thrill it offered. However... "The morning is beautiful! How long has it been since I last saw the morning sun at my childhood home?" The rays slipped off my fingers, reaching the part of my bed. I missed this summer. Now, the blindness was gone, replaced by revenge and the thought of making things right. I had no courage to face my mate, the one I killed during the war. I wouldn't pursue him either. In our past life, I betrayed him, killed him with my own hands as if it meant nothing. Turning to him now, just because I had chosen the wrong person, would be purely selfish. I didn’t want to be selfish again. As

  • THE GAMMA'S DAUGHTER    Unexpected Meeting

    She was beautiful… Even at her worst, the woman looked so eye-catching. Crouching down, I checked her purse. She was unconscious and had lost a significant amount of blood. It seemed like she had been fighting against something—or someone. “Where is your pup?” I muttered, carrying her toward the river. Ella loved fishing for two reasons: one, I loved fish, and two, the river on this mountain had healing powers. It was filled with herbs and aquatic plants containing antidotes for various poisons. Soaking her halfway in the water, I turned toward the source of the blood. Ella could smell it from at least two kilometers away. “Find the pups first!” I commanded Ella while approaching the first traces of her blood. “She gave birth!” Ella murmured, “She was right when she said pups. They’re in wolf form!” “That’s rare,” I muttered. Only in rare cases did she-wolves give birth to their children in wolf form. During this process, they couldn’t return to their human form until they ha

    How could he be here? My mind raced as his touch sent an electric shock through my body. I felt my skin burning up. I had found him—my mate, the man I killed with my own hands. "Thanks for helping my sister, but I'll handle the rest." He released my wrist, grabbed the man by the collar, and punched him hard in the stomach, rendering him comatose. His towering figure made me feel small as he turned toward us. "Thank you!" he said curtly, gathering the pups into his arms, completely ignoring me. Or perhaps he didn’t want to acknowledge me as his mate. I didn’t know, and I had no answers. That familiar voice echoed in my ears. When I rejected him back then, he only asked me one question: "Won't you regret it?" I didn’t respond. At the time, I didn’t think he deserved even a second of my attention. But seeing him now—unbothered by my presence despite being my mate—I felt both relieved and regretful. Someone like me didn’t deserve him. He deserved someone better. I watched

    Because of my Wolf, who was as strong as I was, I could count every single heartbeat of the guards around the cottage. The presence of people from different packs should have made Alpha alert us. However, Alpha's silence confirmed my doubts—he wasn't going to do anything about it.It wouldn't take long for him to know that I was the one who invaded their plans. Alpha wouldn't let them kill that woman without any witnesses.So, when I was trying to protect the kids, there might have been someone watching us."I will be called soon!" The words remained on my lips when I heard my father's voice."Elysia! Return home immediately."So here we were. Dad never used the Mindlink unless it was an emergency. That meant it *was* an emergency."Grandma!" I called out to her.She turned, her sharp eyes reading mine. "Go! They will be fine with me!"Oh! I had entirely forgotten. Alpha hated Grandma Aurora for some reason. His people wouldn't dare attack her or the children if they were with her.Wi

    "So, Alpha ordered them?" Dad asked, his expression grim and cold. "Yes. I heard them," I responded while heading to my room. I needed to change before leaving for the cottage. "It makes sense now. Otherwise, how would he know that you were there, saving the woman he asked to kill?" He pressed his forehead, deep in thought. "Dad!" I turned, taking off my uniform. "Don't forget to put the CCTV camera in that place I asked you to, and—!" I stopped, staring at him, my eyes glossing with tears. "Don’t put a blindfold on your eyes. Remember, whatever happens, there are always two sides to the story!" In my previous life, we were indeed under the influence of the Protector of Leaders. My dad and I never left the Alpha's side, no matter what. We believed that someone had to dirty their hands, and we decided to do anything— dirtying ours or giving our lives for them. We didn’t even investigate further into the matter with the Black Shadow Wolf Pack and blindly believed that they wante

    "Have I been dreaming?" I muttered under my breath as I found myself in the exact same place—right where I was after my death. However, a gentle caress on my head pulled me from my thoughts. "No, child. You haven’t," came the soft yet firm reply. I scrambled to my feet, stepping away from the lap I had unknowingly rested on, only to find myself staring at the Moon Goddess. My heart raced. Why was I here again if it wasn’t a dream? Confused and on edge, I stood frozen, my expression unreadable. "Sit down, child," she said, her voice warm but commanding. "Let’s have some tea. I apologize for this sudden visit!" "But why am I here?" I asked, unable to keep the confusion from my tone. The Moon Goddess, with her shimmering silver hair cascading down her back like liquid starlight, grinned playfully before lightly smacking my head. "Stop overthinking! I chose you and gave you another chance. That’s all there is to it—no need to complicate things." She placed a steaming cup of

    What the hell is happening? I sighed internally. Here I was, being escorted by my mate—a man who seemed completely oblivious to the bond we shared. Or maybe he was acknowledging it and just… ignoring it?"Thank you for helping my sister," Hades said, his tone cold but sincere."You’ve thanked me a thousand times already," I shrugged, attempting nonchalance.He stopped walking and turned to me. "I owe you a proper introduction. It was rude of me not to introduce myself earlier."Straightening his posture, he continued, "I’m Hades Wraithborn, son of Alpha Wraithborn, of the Black Shadow Wolf Pack. It’s a pleasure to meet you.""Elysia," I said quickly. Then, before I could stop myself, I added, "You can call me Ellie.""Ellie?" he echoed, his deep voice sending a shiver down my spine.Oops. I clamped a hand over my mouth. Did I really just tell him to call me that? What was wrong with me?"No! Just Elysia. Don’t mind that," I laughed nervously, quickening my pace. What had possessed me

    Hades, Her pulse It thrummed beneath her delicate skin, a steady rhythm that sent shockwaves through my body. Each beat echoed in my skull, syncing with my own erratic heartbeat. The scent of her blood curled through the air, sweet and intoxicating, igniting a hunger so raw that it clawed at my throat. A primal need crashed over me. Instinct. Hunger. Desire. It overrode everything. I forgot that I wasn't only a werewolf, I was something else too. Something dangerous. Ruby stiffened beside her mother, her sharp instincts picking up on the change. Her bright eyes flickered to me, widening slightly, cautious and wary. Elysia, however, remained unaware. She reached out, her fingers grazing my shoulder, her eyes filled with pure concern and worry— But I snapped, “Don’t touch me!” The words ripped from my throat, harsher than I intended. I jerked away from her touch as if burned, my entire body rigid with restraint. Elysia blinked in surprise, confusion flickering acr

    Hades,"Master!" Dallas stormed into the room, his face burned and his body tense. He looked around, scanning for threats or disapproval, but his discomfort was obvious. At the low table, Ruby had been occupied with her crayons, coloring something with deep focus. At his sudden entrance, she froze mid-stroke. Her wide, bright eyes landed on him, flickering with curiosity for only a brief moment—before twisting into rage. "You evil woman!" Her tiny voice rang out like a battle cry. The air around her crackled, and without warning, a small burst of fire shot from her mouth, aimed directly at Dallas. Dallas barely had time to react. He flinched, stumbling back in surprise and immediately darted behind me for protection. Elysia let out an amused chuckle but moved quickly, wrapping her arms around Ruby and pulling her close. "Calm down, Cupcake," she murmured, pressing a reassuring kiss to the top of her head. "It’s not the bad woman. It’s your brother, Dallas." Ruby blinked

    Elysia,The city lights flickered beyond the tall windows, their glow casting elongated shadows across the room. I lay in bed, my body burning with fever, every limb aching from the poison coursing through my veins. The dull roar of the bustling streets below felt distant, almost like a memory I couldn’t quite grasp. Beside me, Ruby slept peacefully, her tiny chest rising and falling in steady rhythm. It was astonishing how much power she wielded. To have taken down a female beta wolf without a single scratch was something even seasoned warriors couldn’t claim. And the teleportation—swift and precise—was proof of her immense strength. I should have expected nothing less, but even so, her abilities left me in awe. Yet, despite all that had happened, a nagging question remained in my mind. How had they found us? Hades had been tending to that woman since earlier. I had never seen her before, nor did I care to know her, but she was clearly of some importance. I could only assume sh

    I ran as fast as my small legs could carry me, the weight of my mission clear in my mind. The woman had hurt my Mommy. She was so strong, so terrifying, yet now, she would face me, Ruby—the little dragon who would protect my mother at any cost. Mommy… She was in danger, but I was going to save her. "Mommy!" I called out. I burst into the room, my eyes frantically searching for her. And then, there she was. Mommy’s eyes fluttered open as soon as I entered, her gaze filled with emotions I couldn’t quite read at first. But there was something warm, something deep in her eyes that made the world feel right again, something that softened the ache in my heart. “Ruby!” she whispered, her voice weak, but full of love. “My star…” Her arms reached out toward me, trembling, but they were still strong, still loving, even though she was in pain. I rushed to her, my little body colliding with hers as I wrapped my arms around her, pressing my face against her chest. “Mommy! Are you okay? A

    Ruby,I followed the scent, my tiny steps quick and purposeful. It was faint, but unmistakable—the lingering trace of the woman who had dared to hurt my Mommy. My tiny fists clenched, my heart pounding with fury. I would find her. I would make her pay.The night was still, the usual sounds of nature silent as if the world itself was holding its breath. But not me. I was too angry, too determined to be still.As I ran, my feet barely touching the ground, my mind was clear. No distractions. No thoughts except the image of my Mommy, weak and helpless and covered with blood. It burned in my chest.The scent led me further into the forest, and after what felt like an eternity, I caught sight of her. The woman was walking slowly, unaware of the danger behind her. She was in her human body. Perfect for me.I crouched low, just out of sight, my heart pounding in anticipation. She was mine.Stealthily, I approached, moving swiftly through the trees.

    Dallas, The earliest memory I had was standing on the riverbank, watching my siblings transform into fish. Their bodies shimmered under the morning sun as they disappeared beneath the surface, their movements seamless, as if they belonged to the water itself. I didn’t know how to do it. My sister, whose face I could no longer recall, grabbed my arm. Her touch was firm, her voice insistent. "Concentrate," she urged. "Think of yourself as a fish." I tried. I truly did. But all I remembered was the overwhelming rush of water engulfing me. I was swept away, tumbling, drowning, falling into something unknown. When I woke up, I was no longer myself. I didn’t recognize my form. My body felt foreign, my limbs unfamiliar. I couldn't remember what I had been before. I only knew one thing—I could change. Into anything. Into anyone. That was how my life began. Then, I met her. She kept me in a vast room, a library filled with endless books. Shelves stretched high, packed with stori

    Elysia,The distinct bitterness of oleander still lingered in my mouth, coating my senses with its deadly essence. It was the second poison I had recognized, almost immediately after the first. Oleander was ruthless—it weakened the heart, slowly breaking down its strength until it faltered completely. Heart attacks, heart failure, an excruciating end that left no room for recovery. Yet, I was still here. Maybe my father had been right when he claimed we were immortal, something beyond the reach of death’s cruel grasp. But I didn’t feel that way. I could sense it in my chest—the way my heart struggled, the faint numbness creeping through my veins. I felt weaker, more fragile than ever before. But I wasn’t afraid. Hades knelt beside me, his hands steady but his expression filled with concern as he finished treating my wound. He was a strong healer, one of the best, and I could no longer feel the sharp sting in my stomach. The pain had disappeared under his careful touch, leaving b

    Ruby,Dragons are intelligent creatures. Mommy told me that. Our brains develop faster than any other species. We learn things quickly—how to speak, how to understand, how to protect. But the most important thing dragons know is that we must do anything to protect our mothers and children. Mommy said I was born six months ago, but I was with my birth mother for a long time before that. My brain grew faster than my body, but I was still a baby. I was studying every day to understand my Mommy better. Mommy said studying would help me grow up faster, and I wanted to grow up soon. I wanted to be big and strong so I could protect Mommy forever. Today, a lady came to our house. She talked a lot, too much. Mommy looked uncomfortable with her. She didn’t like the lady, but she was kind. She listened and stayed patient. Mommy was a good Mommy.

    The moment the burning pain seared through my neck, I knew something had happened to Elysia. It wasn’t a normal discomfort—it was a visceral, gut-wrenching sensation, like something had ripped through the bond that connected us. My chest tightened as my instincts roared in warning. I turned sharply to the shape-shifter, who was still staring at me with wide, confused eyes. "Follow me. Now." My voice left no room for hesitation. He nodded quickly, sensing the urgency in my tone. I didn’t spare Claire another glance. She might have been lying about her identity, but right now, she was the least of my concerns. Without wasting another second, I summoned my powers, reaching into the void of darkness. The air around me crackled as shadows coiled at my feet, stretching and twisting like living entities. Then, with a sharp command, the shadows expanded, engulfing both me and the shape-shifter. The world around us blurred. Then, in a heartbeat, we were gone. ---The moment I mater
