Alexa’s POV...
“I will try, forgiveness is a process, and with time, I will try to forgive you,” I replied. Logan moved closer to me, sitting close to me and caressing my hair, I looked straight into his eyes, and I could see the regret in them. He clearly was feeling remorse for how he treated me. Even if I was willing to forgive him at that spot, I was filled with doubt about things that could go south if I let my guard down so easily. Logan sat beside me for the first time in a long time as we both looked into each other’s eyes, and my heart pounded severely as our gazes locked. Logan leaned in and gave me a faint kiss. My heart dived into my stomach as I tried to resist the urge to kiss him more aggressively. “I think we should not be….” I tried to resist before he shut me up with another kiss which felt even more intense than the first time. The warmtAlexa's POV...It was morning already. Yesterday night was wild, Logan slept in my room, and we both fell asleep naked after so many rounds. I was unwilling to wake up early because of how my body hurt. Even when Logan got up, I remained in bed, partially conscious.Logan kissed my forehead and caressed my hair, "good morning, my love. I have to go and attend to some things now, but I will keep to the promises I made to you. There'll be a surprise waiting for you when you get up."He must have thought I was fully awake because of how I tossed and turned, but I wasn't. I could hear him, but I was too tired to respond, so all I let out was, "hmmm..." before I turned in another direction.He smiled, giving me another kiss before leaving the room.Last night seemed so strange to me. I still wondered his reason for coming to apologize to me all of a sudden. I still wondered why he wished to make amends.Not long
Alexa's POV...I thought about all the things Selena had said concerning the elders being obsessed with making Kara their Luna. If they keep mounting the pressure on Logan, it won't be long until he capitulates to their request. He will be forced to lock me up all over again. Is it just me, or have we been going in circles? I shook my head; no, not this time, I am going to make the first move, and I won't be a pun in this game."What did Logan say about their request?" I asked inquisitively."He asked the elders to give him more time before he has to make his decision," Selena responded. Now it all makes sense. Logan feels guilty about having to marry Kara, and he knows he does not have much time left, so he decides to come to make peace with me. Selena noticed how my mood changed immediately after telling me about the elders' ambition to force Logan's hand into marrying Kara."What is the problem? You have been
Logan's POV...I thought it best to make things right and be at peace with the people who meant the most to me. I started by settling my differences with Alexa, and finally, we are on the same page once again, so this leaves me with Simon. He is mad at me cause of my poor judgement, and how it had affected Selena, someone Simon really cared about. I don't blame him; I would react the same way, too, if it were me, who would not?I walked to Simon's chambers and knocked on the door, still unsure about what I was going to say to him, but I still proceeded. I guess I hoped I would put my words together in the heat of the moment."Who is there?" Simon asked."Hey bro, it's me," I replied. This was the only answer my brain could come up with at the moment.I walked into the room, and I found Simon sitting. He tried not to pay any attention to me."What do you want, Logan?" Simon grumbled.
Author's POV...With the expectation that Kara would become queen, Alexa's disappearance was no longer a shock in the pack. However, this got the elders wondering who could have helped her escape. They decided to find out how and the reason behind her escape."Who could have helped Alexa escape?" elder Marcus asked."We are all surprised as you are," elder Daniel replied."We need not worry. The Alpha will be the best person to give us a better answer," Albert, the eldest of all the elders, replied."Also, the Alpha hasn't given us a reply about making Kara his Luna," elder Daniel reminded."I am sure he has his reasons," elder Albert said."What reasons? He is well aware of the pack's traditions; every Alpha needs a Luna for himself. Without a Luna, he is incomplete." elder Daniel stated.All elders had agreed and picked Kara to be the next Luna of the pack. Despite her attitude, they all saw her fit. They all felt the pack woul
Logan's POV...I got back to my quarters to relax after the meeting. The next couple of days would be stressful, no doubt, so I had to prepare myself for it. I sighed at the thought of what I was about to do, something I thought I would never do in all my years of being an Alpha; turn against Kara. I had avoided doing this for so long, but I had no choice at this point. I sure as hell didn't want to marry that witch, and I'd already lost Alexa. I couldn't lose Simon too. Regarding settling the elders' complaints, I have pondered and contemplated it for the past few days; the only way to resolve this without giving them what they want would be if the elders rejected Kara themselves. I have to make them see her in a bad light. They would never force me to marry her if they knew who she was. Exposing Kara was the last resolve, and I had only three days to do it, so I had to act fast. Alexa or not, I never wanted Kara to be my Luna. She was evil. I had tried to explain this to Simon be
Author's POV...Upon letting Kara know his intentions, Logan wasted no time. Before she retaliated, he called some trusted guards in the corridor near her room. "Yes sir," three of them answered. "None of you should dare to disobey me. I will chop off your heads if you do. Am I clear?" Logan said. "Yes, Alpha," they chorused. "She is there now. Go in and take her to one of the secret cells. No one will be able to see or hear her there, and you must do everything possible to ensure that the news of her arrest does not spread. Apart from us, no one must know, especially the elders," Logan instructed. After giving his command, he stood by the side, watching them enter the room to retrieve a screaming Kara. Her mouth was hurriedly covered, and she was forced to inhale from a white handkerchief to be sedated. This was all to ensure she didn't make a sound. Alpha nodded as the guards lifted her body and carried her through a small passage he had intentionally cleared to ensure no one
Author's POV...Diana was dragged forcefully into the prison where Kara was. The mistress, who had woken up, was shocked to see her but didn't care.The guards pushed Diana inside the prison, laughing. She felt hurt. She started to regret why Caleb could do such a thing to her."How could I be such a fool?" She cried out. She suddenly turned around to realize she was in the same prison as Kara. She hurried to meet her."My lady, I was so worried that you got into prison. I wanted to help you get out. But it seems the Alpha knew my plans, and the guards got me arrested.""How could you be such a fool?" Kara asked angrily.This attitude shocked Diana as she was always used to Kara talking calmly to her like a sister."My hopes were on you to get me out of here, but it seems you decided to be a fool as always!" Kara spat.Diana wondered what she had done to receive such insult. She had always been Kara's best friend, and her mistress hardly insulted her as she did the other maids. Hiss
Author's POV...It had been two days since Kara was arrested, and she needed to get herself out since her maid couldn't. She had sleepless nights, nearly running mad as she tried to figure out how to get out of prison and away from the pack, all to no avail.Since she couldn't do anything, she hoped the news of her kidnapping would reach the elders' ears. They were the only people she could rely on to get her out. But after two days, her hopes dropped. She needed to do this alone. She toiled around the prison room, pondering on what to do.A guard came to serve her her meal. She observed him and realized he was the same guard who had helped her once. She remembered how he had helped her call Diana the last time she was locked up. Thank her stars that this guard was sent to serve her food today. Her mood lightened as she got an idea of how to use the guard she knew to escape prison.It won't be difficult, Kara thought.She ate her launch carefully and watched how Diana did the same. S
"I used to be the well-respected Lady Kara. Everyone feared me! No one beneath me dared to so much as look me in the eye or remain sitting whenever I walked into a room, but now, I've lost everything! My life, my status, my man, all gone! I've become a nobody all because of that bitch who suddenly came and stole everything from me. I hate her so much!!!" It seems the battle she fought so hard for had been lost by Omega Kara, and she is now left to rot and suffer in a cruel world full of people just like her former self. But does the goddess give second chances? Is it possible for the darkest and evilest of hearts to turn a new leaf and become pure and white as snow? With all of her past behaviours, Kara was deemed the devil herself; now it's time for her to pay for her crimes and receive her dose of the same pain and suffering she caused others. But what will happen when the moon goddess decides not just to give her another chance to mend her ways but also an unexpected mate? The m
Alexa's POV…Logan was reluctant, but after pleading, he decided to trust me as much as he did before. After he ordered his men to leave the room, I turned from him to Kara."You can have anything you want, Kara. You want Logan. Fine. I will leave this pack with Alvin and never return. You can have him then, your queenship, your Luna title and everything else I took from you, I'll give it back. Please, just spare the child.""You must think I am a fool, Alexa. You think I don't know what Logan will do to me the minute this child is in safety. Besides, I know he doesn't want me anymore. So, thank you for your offer, but no. I'm not interested. Killing Alvin will be more satisfying because I know it's more realistic than getting married to Logan.""You might not have the Luna position or all you desired any longer, Kara, but that still doesn't mean your life won't be meaningful. I know things didn't go as planned for you
Alexa's POV…The day ended with Alpha Carl apologizing to Logan and I for the intended attack. He also wished us the best in our union before retreating with the Crescent Moon soldiers. Logan had a short meeting with the elders where they planned Vader's execution date and also agreed to free the soldiers who confessed and send them back to the Blue Scorpion pack. There was not enough time to discuss much, so we fixed another meeting, but for the first time I'd been in this pack, the elder's faces weren't filled with scowls as they saw me. Instead, I saw glints of pride and happiness on their faces. They were happy because I averted the war, and it made them change their perceptions of me. The short meeting ended with Elder Andrew saying. "We will have to pause here, it's been a long day, and since we've discussed the basics, we will arrange another meeting to give honour to whom it is due." He passed a warm smile in my direction, and so did the other elders before they got up and le
Alexa’s POV…I looked over at Logan; he was standing right there with Simon, giving me an assuring look that said he trusted me, so he let me handle it. Another person I was glad to see was Kara. She was on the other side of the terrain with Vader and Carl. No doubt, they’d been working together. If only she and Carl knew who they’d been working with. My vision gave Carl the reaction I expected. He was beginning to falter in his resolve to trust Vader fully. I continued with what I had in mind. “I know you’re still pondering what to do, Alpha Carl, but let me ask you this question. How long have you known Vader? I’m guessing it’s only been for a few months. I have known him for the greater part of my life, and I have always known that he is up to no good. The Vader I know never likes to serve under anyone. He always wants all the power for himself, and he had planned to kill Alpha Danister before Logan’s attack.” “Enough!” Vader growled. “There are many things I will tolerate, but
Alexa's POV..."Carl, I implore you to listen to me. Vader has never been one to serve under anyone. He craves power and control for himself and will stop at nothing to achieve it. He orchestrated the plan to kill Danister before Logan's attack, and he's manipulating you into trusting him." I persisted. "I'm getting tired of your accusations, Alexa. Vader has proven his loyalty time and again. I will not allow you to tarnish his reputation with your baseless claims." Alpha Carl said. "I understand that it's difficult to accept, Carl. But the evidence is there if you're willing to look. Vader's desire for power has always been evident. He thrives on manipulation and deceit. If you continue to trust him blindly, he will lead you down a treacherous path." "Enough of this nonsense, Alexa! Your attempts to tarnish my name are pathetic. Alpha Carl, do not be swayed by her lies. She is desperate and will say anything to undermine our unity." Vader interrupts. "Vader, your attempts to sil
Alexa's POV... The tension in the air was palpable as the two werewolf armies stood opposite each other. The moon hung high in the dark sky, casting an eerie glow on the battlefield. The growls and snarls of the werewolves filled the night, echoing through the surrounding forest. On one side, a pack of fierce, muscular werewolves with dark, matted fur and glowing yellow eyes awaited their adversaries. A notorious group known for their cunning strategies and ruthless nature. Led by their alpha, a massive and imposing figure with a silver-streaked mane, they were determined to claim victory. Before they could charge at each other, I appeared at the forefront, ready to end this madness and try to stop this battle without losing so many lives. I had a plan, I didn't know if it could work, but I had to at least try. I directed my attention towards the orchestrator. I already knew what to say. "Carl, listen carefully. Vader, your right-hand man, is a treacherous snake. He orchestrated
Alexa's POV...But the peace and quiet were not to last. Now officially married, although in secrecy, I could feel some form of bond with Logan. Yes, we had always been mates, but it seemed like the moment I said I do, I could feel a stronger, almost permanent bond with him. It seemed like our promise to each other over a year ago had been officially sealed; I was now forever his life mate.Each night, in each other's arms, felt different; the feel of his arms around me felt different nowadays. I could tell when he was angry, moody, sad, frightened. It was as if I could clearly read his emotions.The past few days were just like the last week, with the men and trained guards working extra hard in training and mastering new weapons and skills. Simon had once come to me and told me of his plan to convince Logan to go out and try to find out who had attacked them and why.I knew it was a waste of time; I knew Vader well enough to know that he cou
Alexa's POV...For the first twenty seconds, it seemed like all I could do was simply stare at Logan. Not only was I very shocked, but I could feel the uncertainty creeping in. Was this a joke? Was Selena somewhere in the background waiting to jump out and mock me? Was this some prank to ease off the tension created by the attack for the past few days?Logan had once or twice made too good a joke out of me. He might not have been the funniest of persons, but he sure could pull off a good prank.I shook my head involuntarily, wishing he could tell me it was all a prank. But no, there he was, still on his knee, a diamond ring still pointing towards me.Logan must have misinterpreted my silence because the next thing he did was get on his feet, tuck the ring into his back pocket, and then try to hold me. "I know these past few days have been horrible for you, and this is quite possibly the worst time on earth to bring up a topic like this; you know wha
Logan's POV...I honestly could not tell why I picked the garden. Maybe it was the many lovely memories I had of the spot with Kara when I still loved her and saw a future with her.On the other hand, Alexa seemed like a blessing in the embodiment of an angel. She was my fated mate, she bore me a child, and she still managed to make my heart skip each time I heard her time talk less of seeing her.I did not need extra time to know I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her. The signs were pretty clear; she was undoubtedly the one for me.Vader was the name of the man she said she knew. I had sent out some men to dig up what else they could dig up about the man. Still, it seemed that after the blue scorpions were captured, he was nowhere to be seen until that attack on the red lotus. I had to give it to him; he was pretty good at hiding. He hid so well that he left no trail, and even after the attack, it was as if he simply evaporated or disappea
