VIOLET

Today, I resumed school at Equinox Academy—against my will. My father sent me here for selfish reasons; to forge alliances with the other Alpha Kings. In our realm, there were four Alpha Kings—ruling the North, South, West, and East. My father was the Southern Alpha King, and the Eastern Alpha King owned this school. According to him, the academy was established to promote unity among the kingdoms and to train young wolves in harnessing their strengths. Even witches were welcome here.

For years, my father refused to let me attend this school. Then suddenly, without warning, he forced me to enroll—for his own gain—and in my senior year, no less! No amount of protesting could change his mind. He made it clear the decision was final. Oh, I hated that man! He never listened to anyone—not even my mother, the Luna—which made me wonder why she hadn’t rejected him yet. Their relationship wasn’t the greatest. In fact, I had never seen them act like a couple; their marriage seemed more like a business arrangement.

After a long journey, we finally arrived at the famed Equinox Academy. The school was massive, with beautiful architecture and meticulous design. After the necessary check-ins with the school authority, my parents dropped me off at my dorm and offered the most basic advice every parent gives their children. Be a good girl and focus on your studies. I couldn’t help but roll my eyes. As if I’d ever been a “bad girl.”

“Get ready for tonight, darling. Look beautiful,” were my father’s parting words before driving away. Tonight marked the beginning of my obligations—the reason he had dragged me here. Ugh, I hated this!

Arriving at the dorm room assigned to me with my single suitcase, I pushed the door open to find an unexpected scene. Loud music blared through the room as a girl danced wildly, lost in her own world. She seemed to be younger than me, with brown hair and a youthful, pretty face. I stood there and watched for another minute before she finally noticed me. Her eyes widened in shock before she quickly turned off the music.

Her cheeks flushed with embarrassment as she turned back to face me. “Hello! I’m Daisy. Are you my new roommate?”

I nodded slowly. “Yes.”

Daisy quickly trotted over, grabbing my suitcase and dragging it inside. “Come on in! What’s your name?”

“Violet,” I replied quietly, looking around and scanning the room. It was clear she had a thing for pink—nearly everything she owned was in varying shades of it.

“Violet,” she repeated, nodding. Her cheeks flushed again. “I’m so sorry you had to see that. I usually—”

“It’s fine,” I quickly cut her off with a smile on my lips. “You don’t need to be embarrassed. Everyone performs mini-concerts when they’re alone. It’s a great way to relieve stress.”

A wide smile spread across her lips. “I love you already!”

I chuckled softly. “I’m flattered.”

One of my biggest fears about coming here—getting stuck with an unpleasant roommate—had been put to rest. Daisy seemed sweet, though I knew it would take some time to adjust to sharing a room. I’d always had a room to myself.

Daisy helped me settle in, chatting excitedly about the school and spilling all sorts of juicy gossip. Once we were done, she clapped her hands together.

“I need to head out. There’s somewhere I have to be. Want to come with me?”

I raised a brow. “Where?”

“The lacrosse team has a game. I want to watch,” she replied.

My eyes lit up with excitement. “Oh my goodness, they play lacrosse at this school?”

I loved that sport, but my father never allowed me to play because, apparently, I was a princess.

She nodded, looking at me closely. “Do you want to come?”

“Absolutely,” I beamed. I could also use the opportunity to get accustomed to the school environment.

After changing into more suitable clothes, we headed to the arena. Along the way, Daisy pointed out various school landmarks and explained how things worked. By the time we reached the arena, the stands were packed with excited spectators.

“Let’s get popcorn,” Daisy suggested, dragging me to a concession stand and placing our orders.

As we waited, I glanced around, taking in the surroundings. My attention was drawn to a particular scene, and I couldn’t help but frown at how pathetic it looked. A tall, strikingly handsome guy stood surrounded by a gaggle of girls swooning over him as if he were a god. He had the looks—fine brown hair, a face to die for, and an outstandingly toned body. But seeing them swoon over him like that was just pathetic, and the way he stood there, entertaining their ridiculousness, was nauseating.

“Who is that?” I asked Daisy, nodding towards him.

“Oh, that—” she beamed, “that is the hottest guy in the whole of Equinox Academy. None other than Axel Northwood.”

My gaze snapped to her, blinking. “The most powerful Alpha?”

She nodded. “Yes, yes.”

The famous Alpha prince of the North. It was no surprise that all the girls were swooning over him like flies. He was born to a mother wolf, and according to history, a child born to a mother wolf would eventually become the most powerful Alpha in one thousand years. This particular one’s news had traveled far and wide. Rumor has it that he had psychic abilities. I wondered why he was ever admitted to this school, knowing he could control anyone and make them do whatever he wanted.

As I glanced back at him, our eyes met, and my heart skipped a beat. Embarrassed, I quickly looked away.

“Is it true that he can read and control minds?” I asked Daisy.

“Yes. But he isn’t allowed to do that here. Can you excuse me, please? I’ll be right back,” she said urgently before quickly dashing off.

Suddenly, a voice spoke behind me. “You know, if you admire me that much, you could just come over and say hi instead of staring from a distance.”

Startled, I whipped around—only to collide with a solid chest. I hadn’t realized he’d gotten so close.

“Excuse me?” I snapped, stepping back. He smelled... delicious. Annoyingly so.

Up close, he was even more attractive, with piercing brown eyes and a smug grin.

“New student?” he asked.

I rolled my eyes and did what I knew how to do best—ignore him. Just because he was who he was didn’t mean I’d lick his feet. I didn’t give a damn about him, handsome or not, powerful or not.

“What’s your name?” he pressed.

I rolled my eyes again, looking everywhere but in his direction. Where was Daisy?

“Ah, playing hard to get,” he said, smirking. “I have to go. I’ll see you around.”

With that, he walked away, his retreating footsteps echoing in my ears. What the hell was that?

Daisy reappeared almost immediately, just as our popcorn was ready.

“Sorry for keeping you waiting. The game’s about to start,” she said as she handed me a box of popcorn.

“That Axel guy,” I muttered as we made our way inside. “His audacity is infuriating.”

Daisy laughed. “Axel can be... a lot.”

I shook my head. I’d make it a point to avoid him throughout my stay at this school. I hated him already.

As we found our seats, the commentators announced the start of the game, and the players jogged onto the field.

“Wait, what?” My eyes widened in shock when I saw him leading the team. The crowd erupted, chanting his name. “Is that him?”

Daisy nodded, laughing at my reaction. “He’s the captain.”

I shook my head, frustrated at how I’d have to endure sixty minutes of watching him. I just hoped he wouldn’t make me hate the sport.

“His birthday is tonight. You’re going, right?” Daisy asked curiously.

I popped a piece of popcorn into my mouth, slouching in my seat. “Unfortunately, yes.”

His freaking eighteenth birthday was the reason my father had insisted I start school today. He wanted to take that opportunity to meet the Northern Alpha King, Axel’s father, his greatest enemy, for whatever reason. And I painfully had to be there.

“I wonder who his mate will be,” Daisy mused.

“I pity her already,” I scoffed, genuinely meaning my words.

As if he knew we were talking about him, he turned and looked directly at me, his damn piercing brown eyes meeting mine. Tell me why my heart pattered to an uneven beat.

    AXEL That girl—there was something strange about her. In all my eighteen years, I had never seen anything like it. I was born with special gifts; the ability to read and control minds. But those gifts were as much a curse as they were a blessing because sometimes, I knew things I’d rather not. Yet no matter how much I tried, I couldn’t read her mind. She was a mystery, and I hated mysteries. She intrigued me, made me curious, made me want to get close to her. No girl had ever rejected me the way she did, and that bruised my ego. Brutally. Every girl wanted me; they all wanted to be in my bed—except her. And that, I decided, would change. I was going to make her want me, even if it meant dumping her afterward. Standing in front of the mirror in my dorm room, I checked my reflection one last time. My eighteenth birthday party was tonight, and everything needed to be perfect. Tonight, I’d meet my wolf for the first time, and the thought of that made me a little nervous, different scena

    VIOLET My parents picked me up from my dorm room and drove me to the hall where the birthday party was being held—the very last place I wanted to be. “Violet, darling. How is your first day at school so far?” my mother asked on our way, looking at me expectantly. “Good,” I simply replied. She raised her brow. “And your roommate?” “She’s perfect,” I told her, looking away and peering through the window, hoping she’d drop the conversation. I wasn’t interested in small talk at the moment. I still hated that I had to come to this school and was being forced to attend the birthday party of that boy! “I trust you’ll blend in perfectly,” Father added. “Sure.” We arrived at the venue, and they positioned me between them as we entered. The hall was so huge, filled with overdressed students and their equally overdressed parents, all wearing the same plastic smiles as they mingled. I hated going to functions like this, and I specifically hated being at this particular one. As we ventured

    VIOLET My alarm buzzed incessantly, its shrill sound piercing the peaceful silence of my room. Subconsciously, I reached out and snoozed it, not wanting to wake up yet. But it kept buzzing, frustrating the living hell out of me. I groaned, squirming on the bed in frustration. “Wakie wakie!” Daisy’s voice suddenly screeched in my ears, and the next thing I knew, she yanked the duvet off me, exposing me to the chilly morning air and forcing me to open my eyes. I glared at her, though she seemed entirely unfazed. “It’s time to get ready for your first day in school,” she said with a giggle as she sauntered to the window. She threw open the blinds, allowing the bright morning sunlight to stream in. I winced, quickly averting my gaze from the harsh light. I groaned loudly, stretching lazily. “Do we really have to do this? Classes?” “Hmm-hmm!” she replied with a nod. “We have to. I’m heading out now. There’s something I need to check at the library before class starts. Make sure you ge

    VIOLETWhat was I thinking when I agreed to manage the lacrosse team? I shook my head, disappointed in myself. Now I’d have to deal with him for as long as I managed them. Thankfully, he was on suspension and wouldn’t be around until next week. Small mercies.By 4:30 PM, I was already at the stadium, navigating its maze-like halls in search of the team’s locker room. Once I found it, I cautiously stepped inside, announcing my entrance loud enough to avoid any unwanted surprises. The last thing I wanted was to stumble upon a half-naked player on this sweltering afternoon.“You made it!” Ms. Zara greeted me with a wide smile, pulling me into a warm hug. “Welcome to the team. Fair warning, these boys can be a handful.”Shrugging, I said. “I’ll figure out how to manage them.”She burst out laughing. “That’s what the last manager said. She didn’t even last a day.”Before I could respond, one of the players suddenly appeared in front of us, wearing only briefs.“Who’s the new girl?” he aske

How could I possibly be attracted to that arrogant excuse of an Alpha?When I reached the field, the players were warming up, and I quickly joined Zara, who stood on the sidelines, observing them.“Hi,” I greeted her, offering a small, awkward smile.She turned to face me, smiling sweetly. “Where have you been? I was about to come looking for you.”I nervously scratched the back of my neck, thinking of what to say to her. I couldn’t possibly tell her that Axel had cornered me in the locker room to announce, once again, that he was my mate.“I had to take a pee,” I decided to lie.She raised a skeptical brow and stared at me for a few seconds before nodding. “Okay.”It was clear she didn’t believe me, but I was glad she respected boundaries and didn’t push further.Together, we continued observing the players, and when they were done warming up, Zara clapped her hands to

Summoning every ounce of willpower, I pushed him away.“What do you want from me?” I groaned as I flipped around to glare at him. “What part of ‘stay away from me’ don’t you understand? You still had to stalk me here and put your stinking lips on my neck.”His lips curled into a smug smile. “I wasn’t stalking. In fact, I believe you were the one stalking. I was here first.”“What?” My mouth opened in disbelief, and I quickly went into defensive mode. “I was here first. You just came. Why would I stalk you?”“I swim here. A lot. And I was swimming before I took a quick stroll into the woods, and when I came back, I saw you here,” he replied nonchalantly.“Whatever.” I snorted as I swam toward the edge. Getting out of the water, I picked up my dress, and wore it as I stormed out of that place. He was just so infuriating.I stomped through the forest, muttering cur

He is the son of my enemy. The man I hate with everything in me. Treat him like one. Nothing can happen between the both of you. Do you understand? Nothing!”Not wanting to argue with him anymore, I responded, “Nothing will happen between us.”“Good. I shouldn’t hear of such anymore. The both of you must not be in the same space at the same time. You must not breathe the same air!” he pressed.“Understood,” I said with a sharp breath.Without uttering another word, he ended the call.

I usually go there when I want to take some heat off my chest.”I knew following her into the forest like this was not right, but my curiosity got the better of me. I wanted to see what she was talking about. Maybe whatever she wanted to show me could help ease the turmoil swirling in my chest.We continued walking, walking, and walking until we arrived at a cliff, and that was when she finally stopped.I looked at her, confusion crossing my features. “This is it? This is what helps you relieve stress?”She nodded. “Yep.”“What part of this is stress-relieving?” I asked, confused, as I peeped over to see the beautiful waves of water flowing beneath the cliff. “Okay, maybe this is soothing,” I concluded as I continued staring at the water.“Told you,” she replied weakly.I turned to look at her. “You love swimming too?”She rolled her eyes. “That’s none

I gasped as I landed on my back, pain shooting through my body.“Oops.” She pulled an exaggeratedly apologetic expression. “Didn’t mean for that to happen.”I quickly stood up and tried to punch her again, but before I could reach her, she disappeared into thin air, only to reappear behind me.“Nice try.” She chuckled.I flipped around, feeling intense rage and hatred consuming me. She was the menace we had been looking for all these while, and I couldn’t let her go. I had to find a way to trap her. But there was so little I could do when I was alone and she was more powerful than I was. “Where are the girls?!” I growled. “Damn!” Her face twisted into a frown. “Why does everyone keep accusing me?”“Don’t even attempt to lie to me.” I retorted. “All evidence points to you.”“Really?” She folded her arms across her chest, pinning her gaze on me. “What evid

    VIOLETI opened my eyes, feeling how weak my muscles were. This was so frustrating. I woke up every time, not knowing the next time my temperature would rise and make me faint again. I couldn’t continue living this way. I was on the verge of losing my sanity. My father wouldn’t tell me why the witches’ clan leader hexed me, and he wouldn’t succumb to his demands either. That showed how little he cared about me and my heart ached at that.Groaning in pain, I reached for my phone on the nightstand to call Daisy. He was her grandfather so she might have some idea.“Violet!” She beamed from the other end of the call when she picked up. “I had tried your line several times but it wasn’t going through.”The pain was so much that I forgot I had a phone. It was not until this evening that I asked my mom for it and she gave it to me. “There’s been a lot going on.” I told her with a tired sigh.“How are you? You don’t sound well. I thought you would have recovered.” She asked, sounding worr

I even sighted a group of children practicing their magic by trying to revive a withering flower. Finally, one of them did it and they all jumped up in excitement with echoes of their giggles spreading around the area. It was beautiful and heart-warming.This place was so different from all the werewolf kingdoms I had been to.At the centre of the town, was a giant castle which I believed the clan elder resided in. “Is that where the clan elder live?” I decided to ask Aunt Amelia.“Yes, that’s where I live too.” She glanced at me and winked. “You know, since I am the princess.”“Can I see inside?” I asked.“Let’s show you the surrounding first before—““I am really curious to see what it looks like.

I found him and the others—uncle Lucius, Kade and Tom, in the hallway leading to the hall where the meeting was held. Their voices were hushed while discussing something I presumed they didn’t want anyone else to hear, but when my Dad saw me, he paused, casting a disapproving look my way. “Where have you been?” He groaned. “I brought you here for a reason.”“I am sorry, I had to go and ease myself and I got lost.” I let the lie slip off my tongue. The look on his face showed that he didn’t believe me, but he decided to let it go anyway. “The meeting is done. We are heading back now.” I nodded. “Okay.”On our way to the car, I moved closer to Uncle Lucius, lowering my voice as I asked curiously. “What’s the conclusion on Lila?” “If you wanted to know, you should’ve stayed for the meeting, but...” He leaned closer and reduced his voice to a level only I could hear.

I was so happy and relieved that Axel was here, even though I still held a bit of resentment due to his betrayal.“You don’t look good.” Axel said, worries flooding his face as he sat on my bed and held my hand in his. “What is wrong?”“My Dad said a witch had hexed me.” I told him.“What? Why?” He asked, confusion saturating his features. That, I didn’t know either as my dad had refused to give me the full details. He always hid things from me, even though it concerned my health.I shook my head. “I don’t know either. But he mentioned that it was the Witches’ clan leader’s doing.”“Kaelin?” He said, confusion evident in his face. “Why would he hex you?”“I don’t know either.” I sighed. “I guess my dad got on his wrong side.”“And he wouldn’t say what it is that is between them.

Now, I was in the dark about her health status and nothing could be more frustrating than that.

That was my opportunity to check up on my mate.As planned, I was picked up from school and joined them as we travelled to the south. Uncle Lucius, kade and Tom were also with us. We arrived at the south and we were led to a grand hall where other Alpha Kings with their Betas and Gammas also joined us. “I welcome you all and thank you for honouring this invitation.” Silas said, darting his gaze between everyone in the room. “What I have called you here for is really important.” “It

Using all the strength I could gather, I pushed her away and made for the door. But before I could reach it, she cast a spell and used magic to hold me in place.I had almost forgotten that she was a witch.“Daisy, let me go now!
