Hello, beloved readers! In the past few weeks, I couldn't update due to my health issues and I apologize for keeping you waiting... Enjoy reading and guessing how this battle will end... I would love to read your comments and have your support❤ Yours, Edwards
NoelAfter finding our mate, Luca was hell-bent on making our presence known and helping the Crimson Moon pack. His excitement was obvious since I had never let him give a chance to find our mate since I…“Alpha, the warriors are prepared, our Gamma Thomas and his team have handled everything efficiently. They are just waiting for your order to depart for the Crimson Moon pack and salvage our Luna,” Jasper informed me as soon as I left the hall and witnessed how Ralph dared to offend my mate and the Alpha King declared a war among all the packs' Alphas.“Are you kidding me?” I looked at him with my blazing eyes. “How could you give them hope of having a Luna when I haven’t met my mate yet? Do you think that a princess will accept me?” I couldn’t hide the trails of anger in my voice.Her rejection won’t surprise me because it was inevitable. No sane princess would ever accept me as her mate when she could have a better second chance mate.“The mating bond isn’t a joke, she’ll accept yo
ElaraLucy and I went to all the pack members’ houses and gathered all the women and children in the hall of our mansion. If I would have known that my eighteenth birthday would turn out this way, I would never have dressed up like a doll. At least, casual attire wouldn’t have bothered me in walking and running in this calamity. “Honey, go and get changed,” my mom suggested, her eyes twinkling with pity. “I had thought of a different scenario on your eighteenth birthday," she muttered with a sad smile on her face and cupped my cheeks before looking away from my eyes. "You would find your mate and will become the Alpha Queen but nothing went like that,” she paused and held my hands in hers and stroked the back of my hands gently. “I’m sorry, my sweetheart.”I couldn’t condone seeing the tears in her beautiful hazel eyes, my fists clenched firmly as I restrained my anger. The urge to find that bastard Ezra and his father and shred their limbs got triggered when I felt her tears on the
Noel The Alpha King didn’t hinder me and I felt at ease as he bobbed his head slightly when our eyes met. His men arranged the bonfire and I prayed to the Moon Goddess for her pack’s safety before standing next to the bonfire so did Ralph. “I, Noel Wolf, take the pledge to fight while following the rules and if I win the duel, I’ll take the responsibility for the Silver Shadow pack and treat each pack member the same as my current pack members, and if Alpha Ralph yields, I’ll leave him and not kill him. I’ll end the war right then,” I pledged, keeping my right hand on the left side of my chest and holding my head high to the sky to face the full moon. Ralph took the same pledge, finishing the ritual whilst his pack members stood behind him with thunderstruck faces. Perhaps it was Alpha Ralph’s first duel because he won all the battles by deceiving the others and there was no way one could defraud in a duel. “In the name of the Holy Moon Goddess, I, the Alpha King, Arthur Alinsky,
Elara“I’m sorry, dad,” I mumbled and lowered my head, feeling utterly guilty for taking action before knowing the whole thing.“Such irresponsible behavior from the future Alpha Queen isn’t acceptable,” he uttered, feeling disappointed in me, and shifted his gaze back to the duel.‘You didn’t tell my father about me coming there?’ I asked Aiden, knowing all too well that Klaus would have somehow persuaded him to hide it from my father.‘Nope, my dear princess. You deserved to be reprimanded, this time. Thanks to your mate’s Gamma and warriors, we were able to kill all the poachers and keep the women and children of
NoelLuca was getting restless in my mind and mad at me for telling the truth to our mate in our first meeting. How could I hide the truth when I knew that she was going to hate me when she would get to know the truth later? I was pacing here and there outside of her room, waiting for the outcome of their pack doctor’s examination. Her mother and friend arrived at the borders at the time she fainted, they helped her to get dressed and I carried her to the mansion in my arms.Luckily Jasper had again managed my clothes so I didn’t have to feel embarrassed in front of the Luna Queen and her friends for roaming around with my naked ass. I had asked my Gamma Thomas and the other warriors to return to my pack while Jasper stayed with me.The Alpha King arrived and cleared his throat before standing beside me, his hands twisted behind his waist. “The Crimson Moon pack is grateful for your help. If you don’t mind, I would like to have a private conversation with you” he suggested, eyeing Ja
ElaraHe threw me against the door before grumbling in my ear, “no one can touch my mate. You’re fu-king mine.” His lips aggressively moved against mine, awakening the butterflies in my stomach whose existence I was unaware of until he savored my lips as if it was his favorite candy.My veins shuddered under his sudden kiss and the way his hands cupped my cheeks along with my neck, the hair on my neck rose and my whole body was showering in sensations. Tears threatened to roll down my cheeks as something in me stirred and wanted nothing but to kiss him back with the same passion.Though it was our first kiss, it felt nothing like that. The sweetness of his lips and his touch and the sparks that danced in my body were so familiar that I couldn’t decipher how our mating bond could be this strong to make me feel at home in just our first meeting, the very first kiss.He deepened the kiss with every second passing by. Liv wanted me to eat him up which I found absurd and alluring at the sa
Noel‘You didn’t do this, tell me that it’s a dream,’ Luca pounced in my mind, overreacting as always. Ignoring his ranting, I left her room without even taking a last glance at her though my heart was succumbing to having one last more look at her whilst I acted so cold to her.‘How could you hurt her like this, motherfu-ker? You shouldn’t have left her alone after being intimate with her. You’re breaking her heart, you’re being so cruel,’ my wolf pointed out as if I didn’t know and it didn’t hurt me.‘Aren’t you my wolf? Aren’t you supposed to share and understand my pain?’ I glared back at Luca who puffed his cheeks. ‘Didn’t you see how she was ready to reject me without even knowing me? She’ll never want a rogue mate and she’ll never love us. I saw hate in her eyes when she uttered those words of rejection but I got deviated when her mother struck her and my possessive side took control over my mind.’ I shrugged and mind-linked my beta to know where he was, ignoring Luca’s braggi
ElaraThat was the same window from which I had fantasized my mate would break into my room and surprise me and now, after meeting my mate, I was going to see this window for the last time. My stupid fantasies, I thought and sighed helplessly.Goddess knew when I would be able to come back home.“Elle, babe, I have packed your bags as your mom had asked,” said Lucy gloomily before sitting on the bed beside me. “I’ll miss you,” she pouted and I smiled though my heart had a storm going on.Unfortunately, it wasn’t a storm of butterflies like last time. It was the storm of emotions, the way his condition hurt my pride and morals. Noel was both my pain and pleasure. I couldn’t deny the attraction and my body aching for his touch again since he left my room but he had to kill the butterflies and give my heart a wound in front of the council."You're destined to be the Alpha Queen despite your capability but I won't let injustice happen to my pack so you'll have to prove your worth to be m
NoelPreparing a hot bath for my gorgeous mate, I sat on the bed and stared at her content face. A smile tugged my lips as I looked at her beautiful smile, she seemed so adorable in the bed. ‘Alpha, someone tried to intrude our borders last night. Pack doctor instructed that Luna needed you so I didn’t disturb you,’ Gamma Thomas sent the mind-link and I was too startled to respond.No one had ever tried to attack our pack, we didn’t exist for the other packs and we were happy with that. ‘Who dared to do so? I’m coming right now, I want you to prepare an emergency meeting in my office,’ I contacted Gamma Thomas via mind-link. I couldn’t wait more to know who that new enemy was.Pecking a kiss on Elara’s forehead, I tucked a loose strand of her hair behind her hair. “I’ll be back soon, baby.”“Hmm…,” she moaned in sleep, leaning her face into my palm and smiling happily. My heart didn’t want to leave her alone after our first mating and during her first heating but I was an Alpha and
Elara“You’re not mine,” I said in between moans. “You belong to someone else, your hands have touched someone else.”He snapped back at me, “so what? What am I supposed to do now? Leave them alone and be with someone who hates me just because I’m a rogue and not a real Alpha?”His face had no trace of emotion that he had when he pretended to care about me. All he cared about was just his wife and his son. His family. It was right because he was married and he had a family then, why did it seem so wrong to my heart?!Why was my heart not accepting that he had someone else in his life already and I was too late?“You have a family so of course, you’ll care about them. I’m nobody to you,” I retorted, stealing his gaze. My body was craving his touch but my pride wasn’t letting me give in to my needs. I couldn’t allow myself to fall for someone who had no respect or love for me.“You’re not nobody, Elara. You’re my mate and I’m trying my best not to hurt you. You mean so much to me,” his
Noel “Don’t you dare touch me,” she warned me, taking a sharp breath in to calm herself down. “Fu-k the doctor and my heat. I’ll bear it alone, it’s my pain and my problem.” I huffed and tried to approach her again. “Don’t be dramatic, Elle. You know very well that you need me and it’s my duty as your mate to help you.” She rose from the bed with wobbling legs and pointed a finger at me. “It’s not Elle for you and I’m not gonna give up my pride for the sake of this heat. I'd rather die than be fuc-ed by you just because the doctor said that it’s necessary for my heat.” “Do you hate me that much?” I couldn’t help but feel hurt and disheartened by her response. Didn’t she feel the same bond which was bringing us closer to each other? Elara scoffed, “do you have any idea how much pain you have been causing me since I came to your pack?” She tore her off-shoulder floral top and removed her jeans and turned to the mirror. Her whole body had bruises and marks as if someone had beat he
Elara“Alright, Elara Alinsky. You got distracted by his sexy body and alluring scent but now,” I mumbled to myself, looking at my shadow in the mirror. “You have to get your sh-t together and not forget the purpose of coming here.”‘Think clearly for once, Elle. You can’t be that cruel,’ Liv scowled, getting on my nerves already.‘I have to make him reject me, Liv. I can’t live like this. Have you ever thought about me? How does it feel when I sleep in my bed and imagine my mate being in another woman’s bed?’ I inhaled a breath sharply, taking the support of the dressing table to stand steadily.‘I’m your wolf counterpart so you’re not alone who is feeling this pain and jealousy.’ she retorted to me gloomily. ‘But I want to get rid of that Kathy, not our mate.’‘It’s not her fault. If my mate goes to another woman, I won’t go around making that woman’s life hard. I’ll just blame my mate for cheating on me, for not thinking of me,’ I shouted at Liv before blocking her.The weight on m
NoelShe was threatening that rogue with such a grace that made my chest swell with pride. Her eyes were still on me and mine were talking with the fire in those pretty blue eyes which seemed cold as ice due to that rogue.‘Our mate did better than any of you guys,’ Luca started praising her and I ignored his comments.Before she came into the dungeon, we were torturing him in the dark way which no women should have seen or known but her stiff voice was enough to make him shiver from fear. “I…I’ll tell you everything,” that rogue finally gave in. “I beg you, please, don’t kill me.”Elara looked into his eyes coldly and muttered, “depends on the time and your honesty. I’m not fond of patience or lies.” Her eyebrows shot up, challenging him and she pulled the knife closer to his stomach but with a swift move, she threw the knife at the hanging rope and he fell on the ground.“We don’t have any leader. Someone was giving us money to attack the pack and he never showed his face. He just
Elara‘You’re the princess. The clothes should be the last thing that would stop you from shifting,’ Liv snickered. ‘As if you can kill those rogues,’ said I, feeling unsure about letting my wolf fight because it would be her first fight. All the werewolves got training in their wolf forms as well but I moved to my mate’s house so my training was incomplete and I couldn’t ask my ars-hole mate to arrange that for me.‘I’m dying to fight alongside my mate and you’re being skeptical about my strengths,’ Liv growled in my mind, making me feel pain in my head and a bit dizzy. ‘It’s not my first battle, Elara, so you better shift or you’ll feel more pain if I take control over you against your choice,’ she ordered me like a Queen and I was too amazed to respond.“Feeling scared or not able to shift again?” Noel’s voice startled me as he returned from the entrance of the pack.As I turned back to see him, my heart dropped in my stomach, seeing him getting naked to shift. When his eyes bored
Noel “It’s certainly not fair to her, brother,” Olivia burst into my room. “If you wouldn’t have forced me to promise you to keep the truth from her, I would have told her the truth. She is hurting everyday here, seeing Kathy and Jon living with you as your family.” Exhaling loudly, I shrugged and looked at her frenzied face. “I didn’t force her to come with me, she can leave anytime she wants.” “Cut the crap, Noel. I can see it in your eyes that you’re falling for her which is natural as she’s your mate but why are you fighting so much with what your heart wants and she deserves…?” My sister asked before sitting in the armchair. “You know the reason very well, Olivia. I’m married and I never wanted a mate to complicate my or her life,” stated I as the matter of fact and strolled to the window to see the clouds passing around the moon. “She isn’t someone who needs me either. All she wants is the power and being the Luna of a rogue pack isn’t something an Alpha Queen would want.” O
Elara I stood in front of the mirror to observe the marks on my back. As soon as I returned from the training, I heard Kathy and Noel talking about something but I didn’t bother myself to hear their conversation but as I entered the room, I felt my back burning and then, my cheeks burned as the tears reached them. It was the sign that my mate was getting involved physically with someone else and now, I didn’t need to hear their conversation because it might not be a conversation at all but just moans. Fuc-ing his wife in the office might be his hobby. Why was I getting punished for his infidelity? What was my mistake if he couldn’t wait to find his mate and marry someone else and even have a son? The strong princess collapsed on the floor of the bathroom because I was alone here so I didn’t have to keep the strong and firm image of their princess. I never allowed someone to see my weakness or pain because I wanted to win everyone’s trust that I could run not only my pack but also
Noel“Let’s see your strength, princess,” I scoffed and stood in front of my pack whilst all the pack members gathered on the ground, ready to hear my instruction. “Today, we’ll combat in human forms so everyone, pair with your partners and try to win against your partner.”As soon as I finished my instructions, I turned my behind to find Elara smirking and Kathy stepping ahead to approach me as she was my partner before but I had to test my Luna myself. “Kathy, pair up with Olivia from now on.”I could see her face turning down but I had to choose my mate now. I neither could give her more pain nor more loneliness. She was still new in the pack and she knew no one but me, I could feel her pain as I was her mate.I had no idea why she was fighting with this pain and still staying here though I betrayed her and she would never be able to be my wife.“Are you ready to lose, the future Alpha Queen?” I challenged her and she took her position in fighting and with her four fingers, she mot
