“The sight of you irks me!” He growled in her face, hatred, and desire mixing up to become one single but tormenting emotion. Timidly, she stuttered, “I’ll stay out of sight, My King–” “Did I ask you to do that?” He seethed, closing the small gap between their bodies. “What do you want then!” She retorted, equally frustrated. “I want you dammit!” He roared, grabbing her arms. “I want to hate you and I do hate you but fuck do I want to devour you till you can’t take any more of me.” **************** Haylee Smith, a nineteen-year-old who had never known peace since she was born was given to the cruel Alpha King by her destined mate after he chose, mated, and impregnated her dubious twin sister. Haylee was still bleeding from the wound of betrayal but she was given a second chance mate in the Alpha King. Alpha King Xalen, a ruthless twenty-seven-year-old, was still mourning his late wife and mother of his kids when he found out that the moon goddess had given him another mate– a slave– to be discovered at his beloved wife’s funeral. What a sick game of fate! A new mate at his ex-mate’s funeral! Hell did break loose but so did uncontrollable passion. Find out more in the pages of this book.

I was more than happy to chat with her in bed as I recalled a time when I couldn’t share such moments with her because I thought keeping her away from me was for the best.“She told me that Allison would lose her power because Alpha Richard would cut her off from the source, which I believe is a Red Wolf in capacity,” Haylee added, staring at the ceiling as she lay on her back. “I also read about the first Red Wolf today.”As she told me about the information she gathered, I watched her closely, her voice fading into the background as her beauty and obvious interest captivated me faster than her enchanting voice.“She’s breathtaking.” Even Theo agreed with me.I mean, what on earth is this beauty that Haylee seems to unlock with every passing day? I knew I was in love with her, and love tends to
HAYLEE~~“Give it back, witch!” Allison’s screams kept getting louder, and even though the servants weren’t in my sightline, I could sense their presence as they lurked around to be a part of the drama.Xalen, who had had enough of Allison, seethed, “Witch? We all know you are the witch, and if your witchy powers have somehow disappeared, so be it. Good riddance to bad rubbish. So shut the hell up.”The smile on my face grew bigger as my mate came to my defense, but I was happier because Allison’s face dropped, and I could see just how lost she was without the power she had stolen.“I won’t stand for this! She took my throne. She stole my mate, and now she has taken the only thing that matters to me!” Allison cried out, genuinely disturbed.Rather than calm her down, I breathed with a smirk, “Shouldn’t your baby be the only thing, or in this case, person, that matters to you? I can only imagine what kind of mother you would be, Allison. My heart goes out to your child—”“Don’t you
HAYLEE~~While waiting for my test results and Xalen’s return to the palace, I dug into the one book that seemed to have held on to my attention and mind—Cursed in Crimson. Just like Flavia narrated briefly, the first red wolf was quite phenomenal and pitiful.Reading about her felt like torture because I could have sworn I was transported back in time to the era and place she existed. I could have sworn I felt every whip and lash she had to endure, even though she was powerful enough to destroy the entire realm.“They even formulated a poison just for her,” Liya gritted within me as my eyes caught the name of the poison.“Crimsonbane,” I muttered, letting the name of the deadly potion roll off my tongue.Apparently, that was the only concoction that could harm a red wolf. With the right amount, the first Red Wolf was manipulated, controlled, and forced to commit many evil deeds. Also, with the right amount, her heart stopped right after she laid the Crimson Curse.I also discovered
Princess Allison’s POV~~Shockingly, Benita was right.I had supporters, and I was blown away when I saw just how many people were willing to be on my side.Earlier today, I waited for everyone, including the royal babies, to leave the palace before I called on Benita and asked her to lead me to where my so-called supporters had gathered after Benita reached out to them.Initially, I thought it would be a waste of time, but as soon as I stepped into the abandoned building that used to be the old court of elders, I realized that I was wrong.“Almost a hundred. It’s more than I expected,” even Nala confirmed.And they all bowed as soon as I entered the court. How thrilling! Of course, I yearned to lead the entire realm, but this was a good number to begin with.“Thank you for showing up,” I breathed after I occupied the gigantic seat that had been placed before the small crowd.“It’s our pleasure, Princess Allison,” they all chanted, causing chills to run down my spine.A smile stret
HAYLEE~~Flavia handed my samples to trusted healers before we left the building, heading towards the general library without Sophia and Asher. I would have loved to leave Jodie with the healers as well, but she wouldn’t let them hold her.“I admire you, Haylee. You are one of the strongest people I know, and I hope you get your happy ending because you deserve it,” Flavia said to me as we walked side by side to the general library.My heart swelled, and a big smile found its way to my face as I muttered, “Thank you, Flavia. You don’t know how much that means to me.”She still doesn’t know everything about my past and who I was meant to be, yet she has accepted me wholeheartedly.We continued our walk, and I noticed that the library was in the heart of the pack, where most pack members resided. Although Allison and I stopped chatting as soon as we were allowed into the library, Jodie continued to coo happily, attracting more than a few annoyed eyes.I was about to mutter apologies t
HAYLEE~~I have a lot to do.So much was on my plate, and I was struggling to keep a straight face.Before going to bed last night, Xalen and I concluded that I would begin my physical training today, and after speaking to Aradia, I have added spiritual training, reading books, and finding more clues to the list.I also needed to get myself examined so I could know what poison flowed within me.Training with Xalen and telling him about my time with Aradia was at the top of the list when we woke up this morning, but since Xalen had to meet with the Elders, I decided to get myself examined even though Aradia told me that the poison wasn’t harmful.“Who would think of doing that aside from Allison?” I asked myself and my wolf.Allison was the obvious threat to my life, but even though we lived under the same roof, she wasn’t close to me. The people closest to me were the kids, Xalen, Flavia, Roy, Benita, Maeve, Orla, and Jose.Of course, the last three were more like acquaintances at
ALPHA KING XALEN~~“This better be good.” Theo groaned within me.Although I didn’t growl, I was just as cranky as my wolf. I kept a straight face as I stepped into the throne hall, shifting my gaze from one deposed elder to the other.I was about to enjoy breakfast with my family when I got Evan’s message through the mind link. My beta informed me that my deposed elders had been clamoring to meet with me, and even though he had tried to hinder the inevitable meeting, they had all gathered before my throne.Frankly speaking, I didn’t expect the elders to come to me as a group. I believed they would rat one another out and sneak around just to be in my good books.“Clearly, they are gathered to fight back,” Theo informed me just as I sat on my throne, my eyes piercing through the souls of the old and supposed-to-be-wise wolves before me.They all fell to their knees as soon as I sat on the throne and chanted, “Long live the King.”“You may rise.” I breathed, sighting Wyatt and Evan
HAYLEE~~“You can’t look at me like that, Nerina. You asked me to be honest with you,” Aradia breathed as if she hadn’t just dropped a bomb into my life.She concealed my power and what I knew was an exceptional beauty. I mean, look at her! If I was destined to look anything like her, then I had been robbed greatly.“Your powers and beauty are manifesting thanks to the bond between you and Alpha King Xalen and also the poison you were being fed by those closest to you, Nerina. You don’t have to worry, and I had to do that—”“You seriously had to make me ugly? Do you even know the kind of abuse I had to endure because of how I looked? I get picked out and picked on every day!” I wasn’t sure if anger was what I felt or if I was blown away by the fact that my mother was so powerful.“I suffered, Aradia, so you do not get to casually drop that like it didn’t cost me everything,” I gritted.Aradia nodded and said, “I know, and I am sorry, Nerina, but it would have been much worse if you
HAYLEE~~“Good to see me, huh?” The goddess-like woman before me uttered, beaming as her bright green eyes scanned my body.“You don’t even want to know,” I retorted, resisting the urge to throw myself at her.Was it even possible to touch her? I mean, this realm felt real, but that didn’t change the fact that it wasn’t physical.“Are you excited to see me because you genuinely miss me, or is it because you have more questions, Nerina?” She asked me, her smile still very much wide.If I were to be honest, I would say I missed her and also had questions for her, but it didn’t make sense to miss someone whom I knew nothing about. So instead of giving her all the answers, I chose to give her half, like she seemed to have been doing with me.“I have questions, and I haven’t been able to reach you, even though you claim I am in control of these meetings,” I uttered, and I had to watch her bright smile disappear gradually. To ease the awkwardness that was bound to settle around us, I ask
HAYLEE~~“I’m pregnant with your child, Alpha Jett.” The world as I knew it froze at that moment. My eyes widened and my breaths became shallow as shock and undefinable emotions coursed through my body, replacing the initial excitement and hope that I was feeling.This can’t be h-hapening… This should never happen. Those words shouldn’t be coming out of my sister’s mouth… her eyes shouldn’t be glinting like that for goddess’s sake!She was my twin sister and–“You’ve got to be kidding me.” Alpha Jett’s voice cut through the thick layer of my thoughts.If I weren’t looking at his face, I would think he was mad about my twin sister’s announcement but the twinkle in his eyes. He was happy. My twin sister just announced that she was carrying his child before everyone in the pack during a party meant to celebrate my nineteenth birthday… A party I believed would be used to crown me Luna of Cresent Moon Pack because a year ago, on my eighteenth birthday, I discovered that Alpha Jett was...
