Selena's POV

I took my time to have my bath in the bathroom because honestly, I was reluctant about going down there for the coronation of Raymond into becoming the new alpha when Alpha was still very alive.

I turned off the shower when I was done having my bath and washing my hair, then I walked to the mirror and stared for a long time as I watched the water that was left on my hair drip down to the floor.

I didn't want to dress up just to look good for Raymond again. I hated the fact that he was the sole reason why I was playing dress up because if I wanted to look good, I wanted to do it on my own volition and not for a man that was a psychopath and was likely going to kill everyone around him one day due to his blind anger that he couldn't control.

Sighing to myself, I took my gaze off the mirror before I took the towel that hung on the wall and I used it to dry my hair before returning to the room.

Lily was holding a dress in her hand as I came out and it was purple in color… I a

    Selena's POVWe walked down the passage that led to the stairs as usual and many guards were situated around the stairs when we got there. I and Lily looked at each other upon seeing them and I kind of figured that it was because of the coronation that they were that many so we didn't need to panic about anything.We walked down the stairs together with Lily in my front and the guards bowed down to me one after the other after the moment they saw me.I could see them giving numerous quick glances at me just to stare at my dress and my new look with the same shock from the previous night on their faces and I met each of their gazes with an icy look that made them look away immediately. I hated the way they all stared at me so I had to make them stop staring. I was the luna and I had the power to do that… With just one look and it was done.“Good job” Lily whispered to me, referring to how I confidently stopped those guards from staring at me by glaring at them, then she walked ahead o

    Selena’s POVThe whole coronation process and rites finally came to an end and I just watched from where I sat, how people cheered and hailed Raymond’s name on and on right after he officially became the new alpha of the star moon pack. It was done and there was no turning back now, the plan was going to be set in full motion with more intensity from now on and there wasn’t going to be a choice of looking back or having second thoughts. Raymond was now the alpha and it wasn’t a dream… I was really going to end the man I was pretending to love.With the weight of my whole thoughts and realization settling on me, I sighed to myself in distress because I was the one heading the whole mission. Lily was just there to cheer me on and tell me what to do and what not to do since she was more experienced but she was still in a disguise while I wasn’t. I had to be extremely careful while carrying out any action that had to do with the mission because unlike Lily and Alpha’s guards, I had my lif

    Selena's POVI finally snapped out my reverie and trance when I realized that I was staring at Raymond way too long for it to just be an act.The crowd was still cheering for us and I quickly put on a smile to cover up my panicked look after realizing that I may or may not be falling for Raymond all over again. I didn't even know if it was all just an act or if it was real anymore but one thing I knew was that I couldn't let Lily know what was running through my mind at the moment because she was only going to panic and it wasn't going to be beneficial for the two of us.I was still sticking to Alpha’s plan because no matter what was going to happen or how complicated my feelings were going to get, I still knew that Alpha was the rightful leader of this pack and Raymond stole it from him by betraying him and the pack members that didn't even know what was going on.Slowly, I took Raymond's hand off my waist and he gave me a questioning look.“I still need to go out for some air” I str

I was staring at him with wide eyes and I was speechless too because I didn't know what to say in response to what he just asked me when Lily suddenly linked our minds and told me to choose a day that wasn't too far. Without thinking, I spoke out immediately and told him I was okay with having it in two days' time, and the grin that appeared on his face immediately, you would think he won a chunk of wealth.I sighed as I sat on my bed and made a face. I was stressed and just wanted to sleep in for the night but I couldn't because I had to be present for the dinner feast that was to be held that same night which was just a few hours away.I should have known this was what I was signing up for when I willingly sacrificed myself for Alpha’s cause so I had no choice but to endure and keep up now. I wasn't used to it though, it was still taking time for me to get used

    Selena's POVMidnight came, and everyone left for their homes so it was just me, Raymond, Lily, and the guards that were left behind in the courtyard. Alpha was gone from the rooftop too and I felt kind of empty due to his absence no matter how I tried to control how I felt. I guessed I was going to keep on being this way as long as he was my mate because the bond alone was enough to make us feel things for each other.His presence alone was enough to lift my mood throughout the night’s feast and the funny thing was, he wasn't even doing anything. He just sat there and stared back at me but I felt much more comfortable than I was beside Raymond. It was at that moment that I knew that I was just confused about Raymond. He may have been the one that I had been dating and believing I loved but weirdly, the feelings I was beginning to grow for Alpha little by little felt more genuine and even though I was scared that he may end up rejecting me after all of this, I liked how I felt about

    Selena’s POVWe remained in that position for quite a while as I stared at Alpha, wondering where he was heading to with the questions he kept throwing at me but a part of me also wanted to let him know that the kiss I shared with Raymond meant nothing and I never even wanted to kiss him in the first place… I just did it to suit the members of the pack. “The kiss was nothing, I just had to play along and you know that” I replied and he growled again before he held my chin higher and I was looking at him directly in the eyes this time.My heart was still beating fast because I didn't know what to expect from Alpha and his questions. The way he looked at me too was setting a fire and butterflies in my stomach and I knew I was already close to losing it if we went on this way. “I don't care if you had to play along Selena, I want to know if you liked it or not,” he asked me again with fiercer eyes and I gulped before I opened my mouth to speak.“I don't know Alpha, I was confused and d

I groaned as I sat up again and glared at

    Selena’s POVIt was hard to make a choice. At the dressmaking place, it was Lily who chose the color, style, and pattern of the dress for me. Now, at the bakery shop for the palace, there were many flavors of cake right in front of me that had been brought for me to make a choice but I still didn't know which to pick out of the numerous choices. It was Laisha who tagged along with me and Lily that did the tasting and at one point, she also got tired of tasting so many flavors that she just advised me to pick simple flavors of my choice that wouldn't put the guest's stomachs in a twist at the wedding.I almost laughed at that but I held myself back… except Lily didn't. She laughed to her content at every funny statement that Laisha made and since Laisha was a funny one, Lily laughed a lot. When the head baker finally brought the last slice of a different flavored cake out, I held her hand to stop her from bringing any more and when she looked at me, I smiled at her.“It's okay Mrs. Mel

Our eyes met and he smiled at me before he wiggled his eyebrows and I couldn’t hold back my laughter at how silly he looked. I couldn’t figure it out, how could he be so calm and relaxed when we were about to do something that would determine if we were going to live or not?“Don’t worry, it will all be fine. It’s just a matter of time and this will all be over, you’re my badass luna so I trust you to bring those men to their knees when we get there” he said before he gently held me by my chin and I nodded after we shared a very intense gaze that said a lot of things.I couldn’t even die when I had him. I was going to bring all those guards down with everything I had because I wanted to be with Alpha and nothing was going to change that. Nothing was going to take him from me.“I’ll be fine too Alpha, and it wil

    Selena’s POVI finally woke up and I found myself in a room that I had never been or seen before. Once I was fully awake after taking in everything around me with my eyes, I sat up with a start while wondering where I was because I couldn't remember coming to such a place and the last thing I could remember was a blurry memory of how I was laying in Alpha’s hands and he looked extremely angry but I wasn’t even sure if that actually happened.Or did Raymond change my room after finding out I passed out? I thought to myself as I sat still in the bed while listening attentively for any sound to know if someone was coming or not.Suddenly, the door went open and I just froze as I stared at the person that opened the door with wide and scared eyes and I watched as his eyes went wide too when he saw I was awake. Then he closed the door again and I heard his footsteps as he ran off to where I didn’t know and I was left more confused as I wondered what was happening.I didn’t know the person

    Selena’s POVIt was a difficult task to have to endure everything that Raymond did to me and on a few occasions, I felt my will breaking but when I remembered that Lily was going to come for me and I was going to be with Alpha soon, my resolve to endure it all only got stronger and I could see the frustration on Raymond’s face, he was getting tired because I wasn’t yielding but then, he should have known that.I’m a soldier or I could say I was a soldier and I will always stick to the rule of secrecy because that’s what we do for our teammates all the time.Raymond stopped electrocuting me for the hundredth time and I couldn’t even feel anything again after the shock died down in my body but my head was still ringing and my nose was bleeding. I was sure that I also had scratches on my face from his punches and slaps to get me to talk and my face stung so bad due to the sweat that kept running down nonstop.“So you aren’t going to say anything Selena?” Raymond asked me as he sat opposi

    Alpha’s POVI wasn’t calm and Lily could see it too. I just kept on pacing to and fro in the room and I couldn’t even bring myself to leave for the night because I was scared that Raymond could do something to Selena by harming her. That was if he hadn’t begun torturing her already and just the thought of that got me more infuriated and scared for her sake.“Damn it Lily, what do we do now? We have to get her out of there before he hurts her beyond her limit. We can’t just leave her there with him to have his way and you know that, she’s my mate and it is my duty to protect her, I can’t just let her remain there for him to have his way with her. He’s going to blame her for these attacks and would want to know everything by forcing her to tell him what she knows. I trust Selena to not say anything but I don’t trust Raymond, that bastard would go to any length to get what he wants and I really hope he doesn’t kill her while doing that” I rambled on and on while Lily just sat down silent

    Selena’s POVWhen I woke up, I was sure that a lot of time had passed and the room was completely dark so I couldn’t even make out or recognize where I was. There was a little stream of light coming through the little window that was up high in the wall though and I could tell from the moon light that it was already night and I wondered if Alpha had gone through with the plan. I wondered if Lily would be able to tell him about my predicament and I couldn’t help but also wonder what he was going to do about it.I hoped that he wasn’t going to lose his cool and do something rash because it could get him caught by Raymond and that was going to be the end of our plan so I only hoped that he was still going to go ahead with the plan without letting his feelings get the best of him while I faced Raymond and whatever he was going to do to me.Then I tried to move from the chair where I sat but I then realized I was tied up and I couldn’t move an inch unless the ropes were loosened.

I was feeling good after seeing the defeated look on Raymond’s face and the want to see him like that the more was just so strong that it was hard for me to fight it.Laisha, who was training with me as I threw punches at the bag that she held suddenly let the bag go before she sat on the floor and she crossed her arms to make an X sign while I looked at her, while wondering why she suddenly stopped.“I get that you’re ecstatic and all Selena, but girl! You’re going to break my arms if you keep on throwing strong punches like that!” she exclaimed and I burst into a loud laughter when she was done speaking because I never expected that would be her reason for stopping the training with me.“But I wasn’t throwing punches that were that hard though” I tried to defend myself with a playful smile on my face and she shook her head immediately before she stopped drinking from the bottle of water in her hand.“I totally disagree.

I know Raymond like the back of my hand and I know he would think whoever the attackers are won’t return

    Selena’s POVI was excited and I couldn’t deny that but a part of me was still anxious and I knew it was because I hadn't seen Alpha yet to be sure that he was completely fine. I still couldn’t stop smiling though and it was because I knew that Alpha succeeded and didn't get hurt in the course of the attack. After all, they didn't get any of them and knowing that he was fine was another reason to be so happy but I still wanted to see him.Also, in a matter of time, it wasn’t going to be too long until we would be able to retrieve the pack from Raymond… Once we had weakened the pack’s security, it was going to be easy to defeat him and it was only a matter of time before that happened, it didn’t seem so far away anymore. Feeling overwhelmed with excitement, I squealed out loud to myself before I fell on the bed and let out a sigh while Laisha and Lily just watched me with smiles on their faces too. We were all happy and it was very obvious, now the next thing was to meet Alpha the nex
