Luna's PovAlpha Carlos stood up, running after Alpha Thorn as I ran after both of them. Alpha Thorn's men had grabbed Billy, and they were dragging her against her will towards the van he came with. I watched in astonishment as Billy beat up two strongmen before the rest came at her.Carlosgrabbed Alpha Thorn by the hand, Anger flashing in the faces of both Alpha's. "How dare you hold me back?" Thorn shouted at my husband. "You can't come into my house and lord over me. You might be the Alpha of Alpha's, but don't forget you are in my kingdom, and I won't allow you to walk over me!" Carlos yelled at Alpha Thorn, his eyes revealing his inner wolf. "Calm down, Thorn. You don't need to get angry. Let's just be civilised about all of this and ask for his daughter's hand in marriage." Bradley said he was trying to calm him down, but Thorn was ready for war. Each time he stared at Billy, he felt intimidated. He was going to show her he was the alpha, and no one dared mess with him. "Oh,
Lyla's Pov Was I cursed? Or was this what the moon goddess wanted for me once more? To be alone, at the mercy of Alpha Thorn once again. I remembered how I had pleaded for him to spare my life. I was once at his mercy again. I felt pained, responsible for the annihilation of the crescent pack. Billy's father had tried to protect me, or should I say my father now, after all, I was in his daughter's body. I watched Luna's eyes stare at me with sadness. She had chosen to die with her husband, her Alpha, on the same day. I was alone once more. I wanted to cry, but I couldn't. Everything was happening so fast that I didn't know if I was dreaming or was awake. "Grab her!" I heard Alpha Thorn give the order once more, and I felt my wolf come alive. "We are kicking his ass." Violet said with anger, although she didn't want to. I jumped high into the sky with Thorn looking at me with disbelief. He had never seen a werewolf jump that high before, but I wasn't just any werewolf. I was the s
Georgina's pov"Oh my god! You should have seen the looks on their faces. I love it," I said majestically, entering the grand hall. I looked at Alpha Thorn as he wanted to talk, but my hand majestically waved in the air and his mouth was shut. I saw the look on Billy's eyes. She had the same expression Lyla had when I chopped her head off, or should I say when I made Thorn chop her head off. I myself didn't know I was gifted. My father had waited for me to wolf out when I was nineteen, but I didn't. I was the black sheep for the family. A disgrace, but my father had made sure to protect my secret. He had me bitten to turn me into a wolf. My powers started to manifest on the day Lyla was to be betrothed to Thorn. I had believed Thorn was going to be my mate, but I think his father found out that I wasn't a real wolf and had me sidelined for another. "That foolish orphan girl. Killing her was easy, or should I say killing the Alpha was easy." I smiled and chucked at his face when I h
Alpha Thorn's pov"I must have seen it wrong. Can she do what she did?"I soliloquy as I walked around my room. Georgina had never demonstrated her powers right in front of me. She had always used her wolf powers. I tried to recall when she had always behaved abnormally, but there was none. Or was I not observant enough?"I told you, I just don't like her." Bradley said it out loud. "You have never liked her, Bradley, but she has been my friend ever since we were kids." I replied Bradley as I settled into the chair right before me. "You started to misbehave the day you had sex with her, if you could remember that." Bradley immediately pointed out when I should have noticed Georgina was acting weird. "That was infatuation, Brad. We both are adults." I replied, trying to hide my inner thoughts from my inner wolf. " Infatuation? You call a woman sucking your balls infatuation? Oh my god! I can't believe you said that out loud." Bradley groaned. "What were you expecting me to say?" I s
Lyla's Pov I felt no ounce of pity for him. He was not only Billy's parents killer, but he was my killer too. Funny enough, I felt my inner wolf drawn to him. "You should make sure he is fine." Violet said slowly. Her voice is calm. "And why would I do that to someone who killed me in my past life?" If I had my way, he would be dead by now." I said silently as I watched Alpha Thorn wriggled in pain. A part of me wanted to know what was going on with him, but why should I be bothered? I would be relieved he was even dead, but the thought of killing him with my bare hands was something I wanted. One of the guards heard him groaning and rushed inside. "What did you do to him?" He shouted at me, and I quickly moved back into the corner I was in before. Alpha Thorn was carried off the ground, and the door was closed right behind me. I needed to find a way out of here. There was a change of game play. Something that I had never anticipated. Georgina was a witch and not only a witch but
Lyla's PovI felt enraged by the alterations coming out of Georgina's mouth. I was no longer scared of her. I knew she was evil, and a woman like her wants nothing but power. "If you think I am going to go easily like Lyla, then you must be wrong!" I shouted with anger. Georgina looked at me and back at Thorn, who was equally surprised by what I said. I knew I shouldn't have said it, but it just came out of my mouth. "What do you mean by that?" Alpha Thorn shouted at me, his gaze changing slowly. "Lyla was innocent, but yet you killed her anyway." I replied, meeting his sharp gaze. "Are you saying a woman who killed my father is innocent?" Alpha Thorn asked, his voice showing he was mad with anger. I looked at him, and for a moment, I didn't think Georgina was the one controlling him. "She deserves to be killed if she is in support of what Lyla did to your family." Georgina said with vermin in her voice. Keira looked at me, giving me a signal to stop, but I was angry. It was high
Alpha Thorn's pov The words of Georgina were all I could hear in my ears. "You can fight it, Thorn." Bradley shouted each time, trying to bring me back to my senses, but it wasn't as easy as it seems. I was slowly losing myself to her will. Her magic was powerful. What do I do to break free from this curse, from Georgina's grip? "Call the council meeting at once," I ordered Ryker. "Are you sure about this?" Ryker asked, seeing what just unfolded right before his eyes. Georgina immediately cast another spell, and Ryker walked away without saying another word. Georgina looked at Kiera and wondered how she wasn't bewitched by her magic. "What are you?" She asked, staring at her face. "Let's just say I am immune to your petty magic. You might need powerful, but I am way above your leagues." Kiera replied, tugging her back to walk out, but Georgina was faster. She immediately rushed towards Kiera and placed a pendant around her neck. Keira stood still; her eyes glowed with a dark force
Lyla's pov I looked around as I was dragged into the council hall. Everyone turned to meet my stern gaze. I looked up to see Georgina and Kiera flagged beside Alpha Thron. What is going on with her? I felt a part of me disconnected from Kiera. Her gaze was cold, and her gaze was not the soft one I knew before. I was thrown to the front of the crowd. Alpha Thorn stood up and walked towards me. "Since you don't want to be my breeder, I am just going to have to kill you," he said coldly. What?"Does this mean I am going to die the same way I had died in my first life?" I winced. I looked at my wrist, and it hurt. My gaze cut with Georgina, and I saw her laugh just the same way she had laughed when my head was chopped off. I needed to find a way out of this mess. "Moon goddess, I need your help." I said silently. Alpha Thorn walked away from me. "Like I said earlier, I am getting married today, and we also need to discuss who will be the new Alpha of the Crescent pack." My eyes roll
Alpha Thorn's POV I felt restless as I anticipated the news of Billy's return. The kingdom felt hollow, and everyone was scared. I could see the looks on the elders faces. Most of the pack members were leaving the pack only to be taken captive by Derek's men. The door opened, waking me up from my thoughts. "Is there any news?" I looked at the guard. "None, Alpha Thorn. There is no news from Billy yet." I watched anxiously as the door shut in my face. This was getting out of hand. I needed to show my people I was not scared of Derek, but any wrong move might result in a dilemma I was not prepared or ready for. I landed back on my chair. As the thought of what could happen to me and my kingdom engulfed me. All of this happened because I refused to take Lyla as my mate. At least that was what I thought. I remember the look in my best friend's eyes as his head was chopped off. "Maybe I deserve everything that was happening to me." The word slowly left my lips as I closed my eyes.
Alpha Derek's POV I looked at Georgina, and I felt elated. She had not only saved me from Diana's clutches, but she was even more powerful. I knew attacking the Silver Moon Pack would be easy. I looked at her as she sat across the table from me. "What do you think? Why don't we attack now when they least expect us to?" I looked up to meet her gaze. Georgina's hair had also changed color. I remembered when Diana first merged. She was having this fierce look that made me scared of her. "I told you already, Derek. We are not destroying that pack. I need Alpha Thorn as my slave. That is all that mattered!" Georgina snapped. I looked at her, and I could see the wickedness in them. The venom, I knew making her angry was going to be a mistake. "So what about me? I get the fact that you are trying to take the kingdom from Thorn. What do I stand to gain from all of this?" L asked expectantly. "A lot, Derek." I said with a smile on my face. "You have always enslaved the neighboring
Lyla's POVI opened the door to meet each elder with their gazes falling on me. They all looked at me and wondered how I could have been the Alpha spoken of. Beta Cedric and Keira flanked my side as we approached the little gathering of the elders. "Here is Billy; I believe you all know who she is." Elder Pontius looked at their faces. "So, you are the Alpha that was spoken of." Elder Zeus said with a voice dripping with anger. "Why should we believe you? You had your parents killed due to your foolishness. We wouldn't have gone through any of this if you had accepted the bargain and become Alpha Thorn's Luna. We would have control and power, but no, you decided to shove the offer back in his face, and your parents or Alpha paid the price, and now you want to lead us." Zeus shook his head and looked away. "Can you just calm yourself and listen to her? I don't see us having any chance if we don't listen to her. Besides, do you think Derek would stop after conquering Silver Pack? We
Elder Pontius Pov "I can't believe this. This is truly amazing. With this, we can't turn the people around to hate and make sure Alpha Hardy leaves this throne, but then we need to make sure the news of this doesn't get to his hearing. This could backfire on me." I said quickly, looking at Beta Cedric and his companions. "I know the risk you are taking on, old friend, but we can't just sit back and watch the pack get divided. Alpha Derek would stop at nothing to see all of this crumble. All he cared about was ruling the packs." Beta Cedric looked at me. "Well, there is still work to be done. There is another meeting coming up this week. We are currently discussing joining forces with the Scorpion pack. Alpha Derek is launching an assault on the Silver pack." I said, raising my eyebrows to look at their faces. "Can't you stop that?" Lyla asked in Billy's voice. "We came to stop that firm happening. That is why we are here." "That is where you come in." I said, immediately balancin
Beta Cedric's POV I looked at Elder Pontius and didn't know where to begin or what to say. "What are you here for, Cedric?" Pontius asked, ignoring Lyla and Keira on the seat. "We need to stop them, and I cannot do it without your help. Alpha Derek and his witch are too powerful; think of the evil and harm they will unleash on the packs if they manage to gain control of the silver pack. You do know the silver pack is the heart of the kingdom?"Pontius looked at me. "Haven't you noticed? The power has been broken, and Georgina's father has taken full control. He has killed most of the elders that refuse to bend to his will, and he has even made a pact with the scorpion pack. I think it is best we forget this topic. Why do you think I can do something to stop him?" "We just need the people to turn on him.". I said slowly, trying to be reasonable. "Turn on him? Have you seen the people on your way into the kingdom? They are starving and hungry. They would do anything to eat two square
Lyla's pov As we journeyed back to the Crescent pack, I could remember the last time we went. The argument, the fight I had with Alpha Carlos and Luna. I had wanted to make Alpha Thorn pay in my own ways without thinking about the consequences. The look on my face showed how bad and horrible I felt. I was the cause of their untimely death.I felt a hand on my shoulder, and Keira looked into my eyes. "You need to stop blaming yourself for their death. I think it was meant to happen anyway." She shrugged, looking at my face. "Do you think the elders would want to listen to a woman who had her parents killed?" I stared at her. "I think they would be more willing to hear what the true Alpha would say. Am alpha that would liberate them from the clutches of Alpha Hardy." Beta Cedric said slowly, walking closer to us. "You think so?" I asked, shifting my gaze from Keira to him. "I have heard your story, Billy, and trust me, you have the time to make things right. I think your people need
Georgina Pov I stood as my heart thudded. I was finally at peace when I heard Diana's words. She had followed my plans, and everything was going the way I had wanted. All I needed now was to make Alpha Derek see why she had to be killed, cast aside, or thrown out. But first, I need to undo the magic she has over him. I need to wait and bide my time, or else I am going to fall in the course of trying to bring Diana down. I need to be more about it all. As the day wears on, I manage to stay out of sight. I was about to go to Alpha Derek's room when Diana stopped me. "What are you doing?" She asked, staring at my face. "Nothing," I replied, trying to hide my sweaty palms. "And why is your heartbeat racing this fast?" Diana asked, staring at me. "Maybe because you are scaring the hell out of me." I replied with my gaze fixed on her. I was smart enough to know Diana has the power to read thoughts and emotions. She wanted to place her hands on me, and I dodged it. "Don't worry. I wi
GEORGINA'S POVI was glad when I heard the news. It worked; I had managed to have Thern killed, and when I learned that he has magic, I barely believed it. He was dead, but I couldn't absorb his magic. Diana had taught me everything I needed to know on how to absorb another person's magical powers, but Thern had managed to escape that night. He had come to get a rare flower in the kingdom, and I knew it was for Billy. The thought of having Thern's powers combined with mine was everything I could think about. "I could be more powerful just by absorbing Diana's powers too, and no one will ever look down on me again." I said to myself, But first I need to have Alpha Derek under my control. That was the only way, my ticket to greatness and power. I was now fond of going to meet him in bed. After our first encounter, Alpha Derek wanted me more, and I was also giving him the best. He wanted sex, and I wanted real power. I lackey that would do my bidding and even hang himself when I asked
Lyla's PovThe power Thern had given to me made me feel extraordinary. I could sense my wolf powers in a different way I had never felt before. My sense of hearing was super fast, and I could move things before I could talk. I like what I am now.I stood in front of the full-length mirror and looked at my hair, which was now gray. Thern's power has made it just the way I had wanted it. My eyes also were changed with a touch of purple on my iris. I heard a knock on the door, and Beta Cedric walked in. He looked at me and was short of words. "You look." The words were stuck on his throat. " Different? Yes, but there is still a lot I need to know and master. With great power comes a great responsibility. I am willing to prove myself a good and rightful leader, but first we need to take down Alpha Derek." "We can do that by sending some of my spies. I will have them infiltrate the kingdom and see how strong the armies are, and we need to know more about Diana. She doesn't seem like any
