**Estelle's POV**
Finally, Alpha Cedric knew Scarlett's rottenness! Finally, he knew how mean she was all this time to me!
My face must have looked like an idiot by now especially knowing how mad he was at Scarlett.
Scarlett stuttered, struggling to dodge it. I wanted to say to her, "I always find a way to beat you." But this was not the right time for that.
"Alpha." Her voice screeched. "You must know what I mean to do that to her." She grimaced horribly.
I turned quickly to Alpha Cedric, hoping he didn't trust her so easily.
“I guess. Considering that you must know that Estelle just had a bad day today, then saw you kick and almost slap her, I'm sure you want to hurt her.”
Roland followed behind. His body was covered in blood and I wondered why. After I noticed Alpha Cedric was in the same conditi
**Alpha Cedric's POV**I avoided Estelle who kept crying at my feet. She would not get what she wanted. I was determined to kill Vera or at least imprison her to death.Fighting an Alpha by hurting his mate was the most heinous crime. It entered a rebellion. The rebels must be slaughtered!But she persisted by hugging my legs even tighter. The soldiers that I previously commanded are now being intercepted by Roland who heard my instructions.“Don't argue with me, Estelle! I'm doing this to clean up the mess you caused!” My anger had accumulated again because of her defiance. I just wanted to trim the pests one by one, killed them, and solved the problem.A war could happen. But who had the right to do so? Mord's family was part of the pack. They should know the rules they had to obey.“You know I have to accomplish a lot becaus
**Estelle's POV**Blood gushed to all over my body, seeping up to my face and making my cheeks red and hot. I couldn't control my breath as I saw him kneeling above me, between my split.The air was getting hot suddenly, like a summer hell. Every corner of the room seemed to be burning together with the flames inside me.I wasn't sure what he was going to do because he froze as he looked into my nervously wandering eyes. What was on his mind? I was curious about it.My mind was busy with many things. My wolf encouraged me to be more aggressive. I rejected that ridiculous suggestion because it might make Alpha Cedric rage at me even more, and it would hurt us.I almost saw him lose control because I maintained my innocence after the incident that happened today. He almost locked me in my room and probably wouldn't feed me.But my wo
**Alpha Cedric's POV**I couldn't stop myself to bump Estelle from the back. Hearing her whining in enjoyment made me jolt myself harder. I would do anything as long as she would promise me never to interact with Prince again. I wanted her to only have me as a man in her life.“Tell me, Estelle! I know you like it!” I held her arms as she bent herself against me. "I will make you happy as long as you promise to stay away from Prince! Say it, Estelle! Tell me!"The thing that I hated the most and had always wanted to avoid is fighting with my mate just because of another man. I couldn't know myself well when it came to romance because I was not experienced in this.All the girls around me like and adore me. But no one is strong enough to break my aura shield. They will bounce, hurt, and hurt.Apart from that, nothing caught my attention. The
**Estelle's POV**I tidied myself when suddenly someone banged on my bedroom door. Wiping my inner thigh, I tried to open the door. But damn it! It was locked!So, I banged on it to signal that I didn't open it. Did Alpha Cedric do it? Yes, he definitely did.“Estelle! It's me Roland! I wanted to talk to you but Alpha Cedric looks really mad at you. Reflect on your mistakes first. I will try to persuade him. Don't do stupid things!” And then he left.I banged on the door again to call Roland. But not even his scent could be smelled anymore. He was gone!My body swayed and hit the bed with messy sheets. My eyes stared at the ceiling of the room.It was so intense and we had never even been like that. I mean, me and Alpha Cedric.Every time we slept, he only focused on growling, as if this was just a formality betw
**Estelle's POV**I was so nervous after Roland told me a way to get Alpha Cedric to forgive me.It was a great idea and I liked it but I was not sure it worked. I was worried that this would infuriate Alpha Cedric even worse.I went to his office after tidying up my appearance. Roland sprayed some perfume on me and cheered me up nicely."I know you will succeed! This is the only chance you have!” He smiled and let me go, like a father who releases his daughter to marry.Taking a deep breath, I knocked on Alpha Cedric's study door, waiting nervously."Come in!" His low, raspy voice filled my ears.The only thing I was thankful for after living in this palace was that I was only mute, not deaf. Because if not, maybe I wouldn't be able to hear his very beautiful voice.I entered in disb
**Estelle's POV**Now full moon. I and Alpha Cedric were in heat.His fingers spread across my face, reaching for my red hair. We kissed very intensely even to the point of making us insane.I looked up to get his tongue better. He swept across my cavity, pressing down to my throat.I moaned, feeling a hitch on the tip of my neck. His warm breath fanning on my ears. He bite them and slurped in heat.He lifted m then flung m on the bed. All of his muscles were exposed when he tossed his sutures to the side. I gasped waiting for him, arching my back when he mastered my body.His eyes widened when he stared at m exposed skin, at every inch that always hitches. He fingered me, down to reach all the hidden curves.“Estelle,” he whispered in my ear. "Do you think this will be an interesting deal for us?"
**Estelle's POV**"Tch, I never assume your type is so yuks, Prince!" Vera clenched her fists accompanied by her blushing face. “You like trash! Are you one of them?"I could see Prince holding his temper pretty well. Although at some point he seemed to almost lose control. He should have known that Vera liked him.“I'm trash depending on who looks at me. But I heard many great people complimented and treated me well.” Prince glared at the crowd of trainees who were eavesdropping on their conversation. He managed to drive them away letting only Vera's friends around. He didn't see me hiding in a corner. “If you see me as trash, I will question how you lived all this time!”"Maybe I'm too holy." Vera sighed, not to be outdone."A holy person wouldn't trap another and nearly injure her." Prince pointed at Vera's nose. "You e
**Estelle's POV**Valerie clawed at me until my arm bled.Vera laughed when I screamed. “Hahaha, kill her, Valerie! She was the reason why Hugo was dying right now. Don't let her go!” She gathered with her friends, crossing her arms and grinning happily.My body hit the edge of the table, roaring from the sharp surface. Valerie lost her control, now jumped with her body covered in fur, and was hideous.The only thing I was sure she was Valeri was because she had a mole on her forehead and her very unique eyes.Valerie's fangs almost dug into my back, but I dodged them.“Valerie!” My pitiful voice leaked out of my throat. My shaking knees tried to get up to avoid Valerie who was now tearing the wooden table to pieces.Vera was furious because I always managed to dodge. So, she grabb
**Estelle's POV**Someone came to celebrate me and Alpha Cedric's arrival. And she was Scarlett.She came with flowers as if she cared about me. She handed it over to me but her gaze seemed to hate me so much. “Welcome, Estelle! I heard cheers along the way when I was at home. And it turns out you've come back. So, how's your treatment going?"I was sure she thought my therapy was a failure because I came home before my pre-arranged schedule.Alpha Cedric grabbed my hand so I didn't have time to answer him. He whispered, “Ignore her! Come on!"So, I obeyed his orders. As my feet moved away, Scarlett chuckled, "Why are you avoiding me as if I'm a threat to you?"Alpha Cedric frowned. He must have thought Scarlett was crazy. No one here considered her a threat. She was just a useless louse.She walked
**Estelle's POV**“Alpha, why didn't you answer me? You're free from the curse, right?" I was worried when I asked that question, worried that I might end up getting an answer I didn't expect.Oh, we'd found the one who cursed us. Alpha Cedric had beaten them. In the classic case, our curse should have disappeared right? So why didn't he answer me loudly and confidently? He just looked down, looking very sad."You make me think that the curse hasn't been removed from your body." I wanted to cry when he finally looked up and held my fingers as if giving an instant answer.Doctor Gordon left us for a while. He reasoned that he wanted to get drinking water from his earthen jug, which was placed in the kitchen. It gave me time with Alpha Cedric. I thought he did that on purpose so Alpha Cedric could talk to me freely.Alpha Cedric looked me straight
**Alpha Cedric's POV**We were cornered because of the many hybrids surrounding us. And if we sprayed them with a paralytic potion, it might not work completely.Our backs were pressed against each other, keeping no gaps for the enemies.“Alpha, do you think we’re going to die?” he asked. He didn't sound scared at all, instead, he sounded very gentle and calm.I wouldn't believe it if I didn't hear it with my ears."We will not die!" I dodged when a hybrid tried to spit at me. "We will definitely win." I whistled. It echoed across the walls of the cave and must have been heard by all of our soldiers.Soon they appeared, hanging in various places. The cave had holes so they could slip in between. While a few of them charged through the entrance."Attack them!" The Gammas shouted. They sprayed t
**Alpha Cedric's POV**Alpha Daren was standing behind the gate, waiting for Prince and me. Did they already know what I mean? I didn’t think so."Welcome, Alpha," said Alpha Daren welcomingly. He let me in.I got out of the car and followed Alpha Daren. He led me to the guest hall. I was not sure why Prince accompanied him.“Please sit down, Alpha!”I nodded and sat down in a comfortable chair. As usual in front of me was always filled with delicious and fresh food. A pitcher filled with very fresh water. I chugged it all and wiped my mouth."It's amazing that you came without making an appointment, Alpha. Is there a serious problem going on?” he asked.Without responding, I pulled out a report document to him and handed it over. I glanced at Prince, giving him information signals. But
**Alpha Cedric's POV**“Damn Scarlett! I will kill her!” Roland couldn't contain his anger. He had wanted to go to Scarlett's house to slap her.But I endured him. "Don't let her know anything about my mission, Roland!" I said, staring at him seriously.He groaned because he knew there was no way to refute me. “But she almost killed Estelle, Alpha. Are you going to let her do this?” He pointed at the letter in my hand.“She failed to do so.” Although I was also very angry. “If we get too hasty, I'm afraid she might just mess things up. You know I've worked hard to get to this point, right?" And I thought again of Estelle.Finally, Roland gave up. He rubbed his forehead roughly then forgot the letter I had received from Estelle. He packed a few more things and tried to ignore me. It didn't take long before he st
**Estelle's POV**A man emerged from the darkness of the forest with a head full of blood!I suddenly trembled as I wondered who that man was. Two of Doctor Gordon's students grabbed the firewood in each hand. They were agile enough to deal with dangerous situations, indicating that this was not the first time."Go!" snapped Doctor Gordon. His booming voice made the two soldiers who were supposed to be guarding me suddenly startled.Then they turned to Doctor Gordon, turning in the direction where Doctor Gordon was looking. Immediately they knew what we were dealing with.They raised their swords respectively, dashing to approach the bloodied man, probably about to draw their swords to death.But Doctor Gordon forbade them to hurt him. “Bring him here alive! I will ask him something!”Doctor Gordon'
**Estelle's POV**"Why is it interfering with my therapy, Doctor?" I got so nervous when I imagine bad things. Was Doctor Gordon going somewhere that I had to stop getting therapy? Or would this research process injure him so he would have to pause until he recovered?My wolf matched my worries. It even cried when imagining our bleak days back. My ever-growing voice seemed meaningless to it."Are you going to stop doing therapy on Estelle?" It was Alpha Cedric who was most definitely against the idea. I could understand it. He paid for all of this. Besides that, I was sure he hoped I could quickly return to the pack.Doctor Gordon shook his head and denied our worries. "I'm not going to stop the therapy. I'd still do it but maybe some of my therapy schedules would be reduced. I should spend more time on the research I'm doing. This is in the common interest.”
**Estelle's POV**I studied Alpha Cedric's hands. They looked fine, didn't even have a single scratch.Then I turned to Doctor Gordon, trying to come up with an answer."This is very strange." He rubbed his chin occasionally, still studying Alpha Cedric's hands. "Where did you get the poison?""Here." Alpha Cedric pointed at an area in his right hand.I was not very a good observer. But I watched that point with focus. And still, I found nothing. Was he lying? I was sure he was not lying.“You should have been seriously injured from that poison. And even though you won't die, since they've been crippled, at least your hands will leave scars.”Alpha Cedric frowned in surprise. "Really?" He checked his hands. "But it's fine.""Yeah, and that's what confused me."
**Alpha Cedric's POV**Tens of footsteps surrounded us, surrounding us from all directions!The leaves of the gigantic plants blocking the sunlight light us up nicely. It was still the middle of the day, but it felt like we were exploring in the late afternoon.Prince drew his sword and shouted at his members, “Prepare your weapons! Maybe it's the hybrids!”I could see the fear on the members' faces, as well as mine. But I assured them that there was nothing to be afraid of.“Have you guys forgotten that I carry the strongest weapon?” I said to my members. We stood in a circular formation, back to each other. While the footsteps were getting closer, more and more.I looked around warily, trying to find the nearest enemy position. Now neither of us was cutting down those gigantic plants. We focused on saving ourselves.
