Ruby:I was dragged through the familiar hallways of the pack house, and the memories of my haunting happy moments resurfaced with each reluctant step I took. "Please, I beg you, take the child and let me be. Take the girl, take the money, take the glory, but set me free." I pleaded, shouting desperately, for the rude man to hear me and spare me from facing Liam.A sense of dread washed over me, remembering the pain he had caused me in the past. I was done playing Super Hero. I was no super hero."There's no escaping from this now." The man barks back as he carries the little girl. Out of shame, I couldn't meet her eyes.Just as I prepared myself for the worst, the scent of authority lingered in the air as we approached the alpha's office, a place I never wished to revisit. The men pushed open the grand brown door, revealing the imposing figure of a person who was seated backwards behind an ornate desk.However, anger replaced my fear when the seat slowly turned around, revealing a w

Ruby"How dare you mutt! Do you know who I am? How dare you treat me like this?" Lilith's yelled. Her enraged scream pierced the air as she glared at me, hardly demanding release from the inexplicable force that held her captive.I stood frozen, and my eyes widened in shock as I watched her, unable to control her own body. There's no way I could be the one actually doing this.Deep down, I knew I was weak and vulnerable, and fear swept over me, unable to comprehend or control the newfound power that bound her.My heart was pounding in my chest as confusion set in to consume me. If I had this power, then where had it been in me all this time?I had so many questions swimming through my head, and as Lilith's red eyes bore into mine with a mixture of anger and desperation flickering across her face, I knew I had to figure out how to stop it.But how? When it wasn't like I was expecting this sort of miracle that would come with a manual of its operation?"Don't make me repeat myself. Let

Ruby:The heavy thud of the closing door sealed me within a chaotic whirlwind of emotions, triggered by the unexpected arrival of a man who I had never expected to meet—not in this life or next—and who was supposedly my second chance mate.Why moon goddess? Why.Memories of my past experience surged forth, stirring a maelstrom of conflicting feelings I had long buried and reminding me of the need to prepare myself for a second rejection and heartache of betrayal.It was inevitable.My heart raced erratically, torn between disbelief and a bizarre sense of recognition evoked by this unexpected alpha's presence, and I was taken aback trying to process everything that happened. His scent carried an unfamiliar twist, stirring restlessness within my wolf, a yearning for an unexplainable connection that now seemed to make sense.I didn't know when I had held the door in hopes for him to come back and take me along with me, but I was certain that my wolf had taken advantage of my vulnerabilit

Ruby:"Ruby, are you okay?" He asked in a voice laced with worry, ignoring my harshness and my demands as he moved closer to my cell.Do I look okay, you fool?Liam, on the other hand, looks so different now, which took me by surprise as I observed him in his full form. It seemed like time had left its mark on him as lines appeared on his face, showing the years he had lived through. His once lively features were now weighed down by experiences, and he had a weary look of regret in his eyes.Pathetic.His once vibrant hair now held traces of silver, evidence of the burdens he carried as alpha since we were last together. The passing years had transformed him, shaping him into a man marked by the consequences of our shared past and the choices that drove us apart. But seriously, why was he looking so old? Like all his energy and life had been sucked out of him."Go ask my replacement and get the hell out of my life." I spat, feeling uneasy at the fact that I was actually talking to my

Ruby"Wait. I thought my punishment was scheduled for tomorrow." I asked in confusion."Well, our Luna got impatient and wanted to deliver justice as soon as possible. You should be happy you aren't getting stoned to death, which is what you deserved, and only getting flogged while naked." He spat, pulling me roughly by the hair, and I struggled to my feet, my weakened legs barely supporting me.Lilith wouldn't be that cruel to strip me of the remaining dignity I had left, right?"Take it easy with her." Liam glared at Ben, who ignored him. He was really trying so hard to be a superhero in my life—at the wrong time."Stop being a weak bitch and move," Ben sneered, enjoying my evident suffering, and led me through the dimly lit corridor. The stench of decay and despair clung to the air, making each step feel heavier than the last.As we walked, I couldn't help but wonder what awaited me. The dread settled deep within my chest, but I refused to show any weakness. I had endured enough, a

Ruby:"You disobeyed me, Lilith," Damian growled, his voice laced with a stern authority that sent a visible electric shock down Lilith's spine.There was a different aura around Damian, and maybe it was because he was my supposed mate; that's why I could figure it out, but one thing was certain: Damian was more than a werewolf.A lycan? Probably? If that was it, then Damian was a dangerous being, and I was sure it was a secret he wanted to carry to his grave."I thought this was what you wanted. I am only helping to deliver justice for the sake of your precious daughter," Lilith stammered, attempting to justify her actions with a shaky resolve.The lies of her words hung in the air; everyone present knew she only wanted to use the opportunity to punish me; she didn't give two flying fucks about his daughter, and from the deadly look in Damian's blue eyes, I was sure he was aware and could sniff out her lies.I was thankful he wasn't an idiot like Liam.Lilith stood up from her chair

Ruby"Of course, Alpha Damian,they have no problem swearing under the pot of thunder. These people are my pack members and highly trustworthy compared to the lowlife omega over there," Lilith said, urging them on as they remained unmoving."Come on, it's just a little oath. It's for the greater good, isn't it?" Lilith pressed, her voice laced with a hint of irritation.Benjamin, the woman, and the other man exchanged uneasy glances but eventually nodded, understanding the weight of their decision, and stepped forward."Beta James, bring forth the Pot of Thunder." Alpha Damian's voice cut through the tension, authoritative and unwavering.Why was he going this far just to help me? Is he doing all this because he has recognised me as his mate, or did he find out the truth from his daughter and just want to return the favour?A man with golden hair, whom I assumed was his beta, swiftly moved, retrieving a mysterious and ornate pot, intricately adorned with symbols that seemed to pulsate

Ruby"Aren't you feeling pain?" I heard the voice of Damian call after me. Right, I was supposed to be feeling pains all over my body, but they seemed to have suddenly disappeared. I guess my wolf was happy and had extra energy today.I turned back shyly to gaze at him, uncertainty clouding my expression. I wanted to go as far away from him as possible and not give in to the mate bond one bit, but he was making everything difficult for me.He approached with a softness in his eyes that contradicted the fierce alpha I saw moments ago, and a part of me was curious to explore and find out every damn thing about him, from his fears to his dislikes and who he loves.And the mother of his daughter?"You endured a lot back there. Let me check if you're hurt." I hesitated for a moment, not used to someone caring for my well-being, especially an alpha of his ranking."I'm fine, Damian. Just a few bruises." I said calmly, putting some distance between us, but his concern persisted. I could call

Adrian;A year laterI stirred awake, smiling sheepishly as the early morning sun streamed through the curtains, casting a gentle glow on my beautiful mate's face. She was cuddled up against me, her warmth bringing me sparks, tingles, and comfort.I grinned as I savoured the peaceful moment, but my tranquilly was short-lived as Hazal began shaking me gently."Adrian," she whispered into my ear, "I need to pee, and we need to get up. We have to be ready for your coronation. You can't be late again."I grumbled, trying to pull her closer. "Can't we just stay here? I can call my parents and have them postpone it."She sighed, clearly exasperated. "This is the third time we've postponed it. Get your lazy ass up.""Five more minutes," I muttered, burying my face in her neck. I started peppering her face with sweet kisses, hoping to distract her. "Just five more minutes."She giggled, trying to squirm away. "Adrian, stop it! We really need to get ready."Ignoring her protests, I continued m

Hazal. "I thought I would die, Luna. I was so scared," I sobbed, tears streaming down my face as I collapsed into her arms, unable to hold back my emotions.Luna Ruby held me tightly, sensing I was on the verge of breaking. Her embrace felt so motherly and warm, reminding me of my own mother when she was alive."It's okay, Hazal. You're safe now," she said in a soothing voice."I can't move," I whispered, my body trembling with pain. Every muscle ached, and the bruises from Anna's assault throbbed with each breath.Her eyes softened as she gazed at me, and then she began muttering words in a language I couldn't understand. I'd heard rumours about her being a powerful half-witch or werewolf—some called her a hybrid—but I never believed them. However, seeing her hands glow with a warm, healing light that sent comforting warmth through my body, I couldn't help but believe those rumours had some truth.Slowly, the pain began to fade, and the bruises on my skin disappeared, leaving no tra

Hazal:I was fast asleep in my bedroom, dreaming about my failed life, when the door burst open and warm hands shook me awake."Hazal, Hazal! Miss Anna is calling for you again." Emily yelled, and I groggily opened my eyes, disoriented."What? Where?""I don't know, Hazel. She's not in her room. She's waiting for you in the basement," Emily replied worriedly. I sat up, my heart racing."The basement? Why would she want to meet me there?" I questioned, and Emily hesitated."She said something about her apologising for taking your dress and offering you another one."My eyes widened in surprise. "Another dress? Why would she do that?"What did Anna want from me now? And why was she being so nice all of a sudden? Emily shrugged. "I don't know, Hazal. But be careful, okay?"I nodded slowly, threw off my covers, and followed Emily out of my room, my senses on high alert.As we walked, I couldn't help but notice how beautiful she looked in her dress for the mating ball. "Emily, your dress

RubyStanding in front of my mate, Damian, I skillfully adjusted his tie. It was a small act of intimacy I had performed for the past twenty years of our life together. My fingers brushed against his chest, sending a flutter through my heart, while his arms encircled my waist, pulling me close as I worked. I felt safe and loved in his embrace."Perfect," I said, stepping back to admire my handiwork.Damian's eyes crinkled at the corners as he smiled. "You always make me look my best, Ruby."I smiled back, but my mind was elsewhere. I could feel the tension between Anna and me escalating; all her threats kept playing in my head, and I feared it would come to a head at the mating ball.Damian's gaze narrowed, his eyes piercing mine. "What's wrong, my love? You're stressed about something."I sighed, my shoulders sagging. "Damian, I'm worried about Anna's behaviour," I said, my voice low and concerned. "She's been treating the omega, Hazel, with such disdain. And now, she's become overco

HazalI passed by Adrian's room on an errand, and I overheard my name mentioned between Luna Ruby and Anna, making me feel like an outsider. The tension between them was overwhelming, and knowing I was partly the reason for their argument filled me with distress.If I had to choose sides, even without knowing the full story, I would always stand by Luna Ruby. She had always been kind and warm, treating everyone with respect, regardless of their rank, but Miss Anna, on the other hand, was harsh, cruel, and unforgiving.Returning to the kitchen, my thoughts wandered back to Adrian. His mother seemed to believe there was something special between us, but I wasn’t so sure. Adrian was kind and handsome, but he was an alpha, and I was just an omega. Could we ever really be compatible?I remembered the kiss we shared, absentmindedly placing my hand on my lips as I recalled the subtle sparks that had flown between us.What happens next?Before I could delve deeper into my thoughts, I felt a p

Adrian's Pov:"Adrian, where have you been all day?" my mother asked as I walked into the house with Hazel trailing awkwardly behind me. She was seated on the couch, her face lighting up with surprise when she saw me. She rose to her feet; her eyes then shifted to Hazel, and her surprise deepened."Oh, Hazel, hi there.""Mum, I’m not a child. I'm a twenty-year-old adult who can take care of himself," I hissed in irritation, feeling my earlier anger build up. But then I felt a soft hand touch mine and met Hazel's eyes. The rage within me died down instantly.My mother's gaze shifted to Hazel’s hand holding mine, and she raised an eyebrow. Hazel noticed my mom's gaze and blushed, quickly removing her hand from mine as if it had burned her."Luna, you asked me to take Alpha Adrian to the tailor shop, remember?" She muttered shyly, and my mother nodded with a large smile on her lips."Yes, I remember. Thank you, Hazel. And while you're at it, make sure you get a dress for yourself as well

Adrian-I pushed away my disappointment in Anna and forced a fake smile as I descended the stairs. At the bottom, I spotted Hazel standing awkwardly, and my smile immediately turned genuine as I secretly admired her cuteness."Hey," I said, and she lifted her face, meeting my eyes."H-hey," she stammered, shifting from one foot to another. Together, we walked out of the house. I could feel my palms getting sweaty from the anticipation and nervousness about the upcoming mating ball, a significant event. The thought of Hazel assisting me with my suit fitting added to my nervousness for some reason."So, do you know much about suits?" I asked, trying to lighten the mood as we made our way to the tailor shop."A bit," she replied, her voice still a little shaky. "I’ve helped with fittings before.""Good to know," I said, offering her a reassuring smile. "I appreciate the help."We walked in comfortable silence for a while, the tension from earlier slowly dissipating. I realised this might

Adrian The next day, the sun was barely up when I headed to the training grounds with my friends. We were sparring, honing our skills, and pushing each other to our limits. In the midst of a particularly intense training session, our pack beta, Daniel, joined us and signalled for us to form our usual circle."Adrian, Jake, step forward. It’s time to test your fighting skills," Beta Daniel said. Jake shot me a smirk as we moved to the centre of the training grounds.Jake was always a bit of a jerk, constantly boasting about his strength and making snide remarks about how I was only in my position because I was the alpha’s son. His words often grated on my nerves, but as usual, I did my best to ignore him.I don't like boasting or displaying my full strength, regardless of my alpha lineage, because I possess inherent strength that surpasses everyone on the training ground, owing to the chief spirit judge residing within me. This spirit enables me to perform supernatural feats. I consci

Adrian;"Anna, wait!" I called out, jogging after her, hoping she would slow down and listen to me, but she didn’t. Instead, she quickened her pace, her shoulders tense with anger and frustration.This wasn't the first time I found myself running after her, especially after she had a heated conversation with my mother, and I knew it wouldn't be the last. For some unknown reason, she deeply loathed my mom, which made me uncomfortable since I cared about them both.What made everything more frustrating was that neither my parents nor Anna ever explained the reason behind her anger. Whenever I asked, they would all change the subject, which I found slightly annoying.Using my advanced werewolf speed, I quickly closed the distance between us, seeing the determination in her stride."Anna, please stop!" I called again, louder this time. She halted reluctantly when we reached the front of the house, aware that I would follow her even into her room, invading her privacy. She hated that.She
