The next day, I woke up early to get ready to go to the packhouse. I was dressed in high-waisted plaid ankle pants, and a matching jacket, I wore my black high heels and looked into the mirror, a smile crossed my face. This is exactly how I wanted to look. Sophisticated and hot, I feel and look sexy, like a boss. ' A Queen!' Kira squealed, and I nodded in agreement. I carried the handbag Mila bought for me and went downstairs. I found Azriel in the salon, drinking something in a glass, " Isn't it too early to be drinking, that?" I frowned. He finally lifted his eyes to look at me and his jaw almost dropped to the floor. I spread out my hands and twirled. " Do I look right?" I asked. His mouth parted and closed, I watched him intently as he was failing to produce any words. He only nodded and gulped the contents of his glass. " I'm coming with you," he said. We were about to leave when I held his arm, and he looked at me. " Can I have whatever you were drinking, just to help c
We went into his office, but this time, with only alpha Mars, beta Steven, and Grayson, I felt his eyes on me but I didn't look at him. We got situated in the large office and Alpha Mars smiled at me, all this was weird and I didn't want to get familiar with any of them after how shitty they treated me in the past so I didn't smile back. " So, how may we assist you, Luna Adira?" " My parents, I want all records of them," I said. That was the last thing he was thinking I'd ask clearly as his eyes widened a little. My ears perked up and I heard the beta's heart pound against his chest. He was worried. " Well, your parents were private people and I knew nothing about them," he shrugged, getting comfortable in his chair. I exhaled and looked him dead in the eyes. " You can't know nothing, you're the alpha of this pack and must know everyone," I gritted my teeth. " Well, we don't know much about them," Beta Steven said in the corner he was standing in and I glared at him, making
Fur appeared on the beta's skin and before he could shift, I grabbed his neck and threw him towards the door, breaking it. The noise alerted the members and they all came running out. Beta Steven was holding his face, trying to get up but I kicked him again in the stomach. He let out an angry growl and he kicked me in the gut, making me fly and hit against the wall. I grunted in pain and stood up quickly but he had fully shifted and he lunged at me, I felt a sharp pain in my stomach, and my vision was blurry. There was a lot of noise, it was so loud. I shook my head and as my vision came back, I found myself in the large courtyard. " Adira, are you alright?" Azriel cupped my face. I blinked severally and stood up, facing the brown wolf as he approached me. " Leave," I said in a quiet stable tone. Azriel wasn't going to leave me to face this wolf alone so I had to command him. " Leave, Azriel," he still shook his head. I inhaled and looked at him gently. " I need to do this
" Yes, you are giving your parents the justice they deserve," Azriel said. I exhaled and ran a hand through my hair." I'll make sure someone keeps an eye on them. So, how do you want it to be done?" he asked seriously. " I don't know," I choked. " We can torture them first and then you can kill them," he suggested and I shook my head. I wasn't a killer and those two wouldn't make me one. " I don't care how, but I'm not lying my hands on them," he said. " Well, are you coming to watch?" he asked. " Azriel! Please stop!" I screamed, tears rolling down my face. " Geez, relax just wanted to let you in on the fun but It's fine, I'll do it," he snarled and left. I stared at him in disbelief, he was enjoying this too much. I took a calming breath, counting until I was stable now. 'Oops, here comes the ex,' Kira sang. I felt his presence before he could appear in my line of vision. " Don't you think it's extreme," Grayson said, walking over to me. I watched him with bored eyes. "
Grayson's eyes bulged in surprise and he kept opening his mouth, sweat was running down his temple. " Adira, it- it's not... My father is dead," he stammers. I only carried my bag and looked back at him over my shoulder. " You owe me no explanation, we all have different ways to mourn. By the way, I need to talk to you once you're done in here," I glanced at the omega wolf before leaving the room and going to the garden. This pack still needed a leader and Grayson was trained his whole life for the position. I may not like him but I had to do what's right by these people. I removed my phone from my pocket and read messages from Wyatt, he called a few times too. Grayson joined me in the garden half an hour later, he was fully dressed and his eyes were red like he was crying. " Hello," " How can you be so calm when you ordered two deaths? Adira, that man was my father," he growled. " Watch your tone if you don't want to join them," I warned. He looked shocked by this but I
Azriel This woman was absolutely breathtaking! Her smile was mesmerizing. Even after knowing her for months now, her beauty still amazed me. She talked about the food on the table while I watched her, I didn't like it as much but I pretended to because it made her so happy. When we were almost done with the meal, a middle-aged woman came to our table, a huge smile plastered on her lips. " The unruly child! " she clapped, smiling from ear to ear. " Mrs. Li," Adira didn't seem enthusiastic to see the woman. She stood up and crossed her arms against her chest, waiting for the woman to speak. " Luna, I was so happy when I heard you came to my restaurant," Mrs Li beamed. " Oh really?" she said. " Yes, news of your arrival spread, and what happened, don't worry, we support you and your new position," Even I was impressed by the way she dealt with Mars and Steven. She was so powerful at that moment and so damn sexy. I tuned them out and continued to eat my food. Mrs Li left and
I opened my eyes a few minutes later to a ringing in my headache. I touched the area where I felt the most pain with my fingers and there was a large piece of glass stuck in my stomach. I pulled it out as a muffled scream escaped my lips. It took a few minutes for my eyes to fully open. " Azriel," I croaked. He wasn't next to me. I unbuckled my belt and kicked the door open before going out. My legs were wobbly at first as I looked around for Azriel but as soon as my wolf made an appearance, I got my strength back. " Azriel!" I shouted and ran to him, he was hurt and bleeding. I got to my knees and lifted his shirt. Gently, I touched his torso and concentrated on healing him, and just like before, his wounds slowly began to close and he stirred, groaning. " Stop that," he grumbled, pushing me away. " Are you alright?" he asked, worried. I nodded and he wiped the blood on my forehead with his fingers gently. ' What happened- " " Impressive," We froze at the voice, it was that
Zion's POV A few weeks ago I discreetly went into the Diamond city. I needed to see for myself how everything was and indeed, as my men reported, the king was a vigilante. I wouldn't have made it in or out without the help of my sorcery. On my way out of the palace, I met someone I didn't know I would. At first, I thought it was my love, Meryl but when I looked closely, I knew it wasn't her, those eyes that belonged to the man I loathed more than anything. Benedict Wade Lafayette, my flesh, and blood. Benedict and I grew up as antagonists, just like our fathers, the original Lafayette brothers. They both wanted to be the alpha of our pack but my grandfather chose my uncle for that because he had a pure heart, and in retaliation, my father became a devoted follower of the dark king in hopes to take revenge on his pack but that didn't work out after that fucker Wyatt killed them. Years later, a few devoted members of the Dark King approached me, they selected me as their leader. We
