GEORGINA'S POV"What was that all about?" I looked at Keira as I drove along the bush street. "Is there something you are not telling me? something you are hiding from me." I asked and looked at her face, but I noticed she had the same look on her face the day I had brought her to my house. Kiera was unmoved by the way I behaved. I expect her to be scared and beg each time I send her on a dangerous mission but all she ever did was nodded and go like some zombie. "What are you talking about?" She asked back looking outside the car. "You want to tell me you didn't know?" I asked back. " Know? know what?" Kiera replied Her answers were beginning to irritate me, so I stopped the car. "Are you saying you don't know she was an Alpha all this time you served beside her?" " I didn't. Why are we talking about her? How is Billy being an Alpha and hindrance to you being the Luna and taking over the kingdom?" Keira looked at me "Do you think I am a fool? An alpha doesn't need to fight for
Keira's povI felt my lungs burn from the portion I had drunk. I felt compelled too, and my wolf for the first time in a long time communicated with me. "This is different? What did you do?" Celine said with anger. "How am I supposed to know?" I replied, not sure what to say. My heart thud gently, and I knew I couldn't control my hands. It was almost like Georgina was in control of my wrist and my mind. I could hear her chant her mantra each time, and I could feel her inside my head. I was supposed to kill my Alpha. I knew it wasn't going to be easy. Alpha's are the strongest werewolves in the packs. Then we have the Lycan's, which are ferocious and strong. My heart thud as I thought of ways to kill Lyla. Like I said, I don't have control anymore. One thing was certain: I could claim the power of a true Alpha once I kill my Alpha. I had read the book somewhere, but my loyalty to Billy when she was alive made me never think of killing her. But now that she is dead, I don't see any
Lyla's Pov Something doesn't feel right?For some reason, Violet is restless, and I could sense it. "What is wrong?" I asked, but Violet wouldn't say a word. She was silent for the first time. After feeding her, I believe she was tired and wanted to just rest. Walking past the palace hallway, I wondered why I haven't seen Alpha Thorn and Thern. I looked at the servants as they pointed at me and whispered. Honestly, I wasn't bothered by what they were saying. My focus was on defeating Georgina. I needed her to fear me and whisper my name in fear and not the other way around. Walking closer to my room, I felt a kind of electric jolt run down my body. This was the second time I was feeling that way. As I pushed the door open, I was met with a dagger in my belly. I looked up and was surprised to see who it was. "Keira." I called silently as I felt the blade in my stomach. "Why?" I asked in pain. I know that look, It was the same Thern had immediately drank that potion. Keira was hav
Kiera's PovI walked into the servants quarters to wash the blood off my hands. Some of the servants looked at me and avoided me like some plagues. " Weirdo." I heard one of them say it with a disdainful voice. I was in control of my senses, and I knew what I had done, but I didn't feel remorse. My inner wolf was still silent, and I don't know why. As I scrubbed my hand, I stared at myself in the glassy mirror right in front of me.The face of Billy flashed each time I stared at the mirror. I shut my eyes and quickly walked out of the bathroom. I heard a loud noise coming from Lyla's quarters, and I know what has happened. I killed her. I quickly found my way out of the kingdom and was soon on my way to Georgina's mansion. I still wonder what she wanted; her father was now the Alpha of the crescent moon pack. Her father is now an Alpha, making her entitled to the crescent moon pack. Why does she want to rule the silver moon pack? That was something I couldn't understand. The fight
Georgina's Pov My eyes were laced with fury as my finger snapped and Kiera fell down to the floor numb. I can't kill her now. I need to conclude my coronation as the Luna of the kingdom, which I felt was going to be possible as soon as I made sure Alpha Thorn and Thern were still under my influence. "You stupid girl!" I shouted with anger. I looked at the brunt book and bit my lips. That was the only copy I was having. I need a proper witch who is going to teach me how to harvest my power. I looked at Kiera, and the look on her face showed that she was scared. "You are going to take the fall for this. I am going to enjoy killing you. You should have just sided with me. Billy is dead, and soon you will go off to join her since you are in a hurry to join her, by the way." I said locking the door behind her. My heart thought, Why was all of this happening? The portion had worked for Keira to kill Billy, so what happened? Was there a part of her fighting the magic, or was I doing some
Alpha Thorn's pov The news of Billy's death came as a shock to me. I didn't want to kill her. She was my mate after all. I looked at her body lying on the bed before me and was shocked. "What happened?" I looked at the head of security."She was stabbed. I think someone meant to kill her." The man replied I looked back, and Georgina walked in. I could see the smile on her face, but I wasn't bothered. Billy meant nothing to me, by the way. All that mattered was Georgina loving me the way I have loved her. "Let the dead be buried. I have a wedding to prepare." I said immediately storming out of the morgue. "You don't seem surprised by her death." I said, looking at Georgina. "Why should I be? She was dragging my place with me in your heart," she replied coldly. "No one will ever replace you. We have been friends for how long now?" I stopped and looked at her face. " Friends? Is that all I have been to you all this while?" Georgina asked. "Well, yes. I just felt like you understood m
Alpha Thorn's pov I looked at Ryker and said, "Are you sure about this?" I asked with a serious look on my face, and he nodded. The door opened. Georgina walked in. She noticed the tense atmosphere. "Is everything alright?" she asked, walking closer to me. " perfect. We should be at the altar in a couple of hours." I replied to her and kissed her by the cheek. Ryker walked out of the room and left us alone. "Are you really sure you want to be with me?" I asked, looking at Georgina, who seemed quite happy. "I have waited for this all my life. I am sure I want to be with you," she replied. I walked closer to Georgina and had her face cupped in my hand. I was about to kiss her when we heard a knock at the door. "We are ready to host you, sir," the voice said from behind the door. "I guess it is now or never." I said quickly. "I will see you at the altar." Georgina looked at me and walked out of the room. As soon as she left, I began to wonder how I was going to deal with the afterm
Lyla's pov The loud murmur of the people and gasps reached my ears as I walked boldly towards the council hall where the wedding was taking place. I walked into the hall, and another noise erupted from the crowd. I saw the look on Georgina's face. She couldn't believe it. " You! You were supposed to be dead!" she shouted with anger. I looked at Thern, who was on his knees with a ring trusted out of his hands. "Well, here I am in flesh and blood. Do you honestly think you can kill me, witch?" I asked with a fierce gaze. "You have to kill her, Thorn. She is here to disrupt the marriage." Georgina looked at Thorn's face. "Can you get up and stop embarrassing yourself? She is my Luna now, and there is nothing you or anybody can do about it." I shouted at Thern, but Bradley was happy the moment Lyla entered. "Did you pretend to be dead?" Alpha Thorn looked at me. "I had too; she wanted me dead, as usual." I replied and walked into the midst of the elders and those present for the wed
Alpha Derek's pov [ ON THE BATTLE FIELD] Everything was happening so fast. The battle to Tae over the silver moon pack. I could not think, I was not myself. The continuous words of Georgina echoed in my head telling what to do.I looked around and I could see that most of my men were tired. The loud shout of battle cry could be heard across the field as man fell. My vision felt blurry and tiring. I looked beside me and saw one of the silver moon army coming right towards me. I wasted no time in clawing out his throat. The loud pitch of his cry echoed into my ears as I watched life slowly fade out of him. Where is she? Where is Georgina? This was not the plan and for some reason I was going against everything I had promised my men. Everything I had planned. I rushed towards the Georgina side and drew her away from the front battle, " This was not what you promised me!" I said in anger."Look around you, My men are dying by their thousands and what have you been able to do abou
Georgina's pov [ A DAY BEFORE THE BATTLE ] I had anticipated that Bily would be ready to thwart my plan. I don't understand what her drift was and why she was going this far to make sure I failed. I walked into Alpha Derek's room and saw him almost naked. He had his pants on and his broad chest was alluring and tempting. I bit my lower lips as I walked in. " Georgina." Alpha Derek said, meeting my gaze. " I wasn't expecting you." He said grabbing his robe. I looked at him as the robe hugged his broad chest and muscular arms. " You looked trouble." He said looking at me. " Talk to me. Is anything the matter?" " I was thinking, why don't we attack the Silver moon pack? They won't expect us to attack them." I said looking at him.Alpha Derek went to his seat, he grabbed his jar of wine and drank directly from it. A tug smile forming on his face. " What is in it for me? it is clear that I love you but I feel like you are not showing me all the pieces on the chess board." Alpha Der
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
