Asher"Who are you, Alessia?" I asked with a cold look on my face. My voice was laced with pain and sadness. I didn't want to believe that she was the princess of the Grey Moon pack even though I'd seen the mark on her neck. I didn't want to ask her but I felt there was no need to beat around the bush since I'd seen the mark on her. "What's wrong with you? Why are you asking me this question?" She asked with a confused look on her face as she stood up from the bed. Her nakedness was always hard for me to resist, not until I found the sacred birthmark on her neck. "Answer my damn question, Alessia," I yelled out with an angry look on my face. "Okay fine," she took a deep breath and stared at me skeptically. "My name is Alessia Brown. I'm the princess of the Grey Moon pack. Like I'd told you earlier, I left because Xavier betrayed me," she muttered with a sad look on her face but I wasn't concerned about that side of the story. I took a deep breath, trying to control the emotion
Alessia"Asher!" I called out worriedly with my heart beating rapidly against its cage. I was sad and heartbroken after he left me without turning back. He didn't even bother to wait for me to apologize to him before he left. What could I do about him?I felt bad and regretful for hiding the secret about my identity from him. It was not really my fault. I didn't want him to change toward me because I was from the opposition pack. That was why I had to hide my identity from him and lie about it to him. It was until then that I wished I never hid my identity from him. I was sure he wasn't happy with me. What was wrong with him? I asked myself but I couldn't get an answer to it. I felt something was wrong with him earlier. He suddenly withdrew himself while we were having sex and he stared at me intensely as though he had done something wrong whereas I was enjoying his touch. His next was what actually shocked me. Why did he suddenly ask me for my identity? Why was he anxious? And ev
Alessia"Huh?" I looked up with a confused look. I had conflicted feelings. My heart skipped in fear as different negative thoughts crossed my mind as I remembered how cold and fierce he sounded. Why did he seem so indifferent? Why didn't he want me to see him? Was it because of what I did to him? Was he still angry at me? I asked myself but I couldn't get an answer to it. "Why should I leave, huh? Why are you doing this to me?" I asked with my voice laced with pain and sadness. I knew I had offended him by lying about my identity to him but I didn't expect him to still be angry at me. I felt there was more to his indifference toward me. If he was truly angry at me, he wouldn't bring me back to the pack even though he had changed my chamber for the reasons best known to him. I didn't know what to do about him. His cold voice rang loudly and brought me out of my train of thought. "That's because I don't want to see you." His words broke and tore my heart into pieces, and it hurt li
Asher"I'm sorry," I muttered with a sad look on my face. She moved backward with an angry look on her face. I gulped down into nothing as she glared at me darkly. Her expression and demeanor changed quickly. She didn't stare at me with those same loving and caring eyes, her expression was replaced with darkness and hatred. Her expression was hard to read. I couldn't read what was going on in her mind. This was what I was trying to avoid. How did she find out that I was the murderer of her parents? Who told her? I asked myself but I couldn't get an answer to it. That wasn't my problem. I needed to let her know that I didn't mean to hide the truth from her like she thought I did. But what would I do? It seemed she wasn't ready to listen to me. She looked cold and fierce, unwilling to listen to me. Why should she listen to me? I killed her parents. "I'm sorry, please forgive me. I didn't mean to kill them but I was…" I took a deep breath and glanced at her, unaware of what to say.
AsherWhat! A soft gasp escaped my lips, and I felt sweat begin forming on my forehead. My eyes turned red as I turned to Derek with my heart burning with rage and anger."What did you do to her? How did she manage to leave the pack?" I asked with a weak and faint tone, and he laughed. The southeast was a very dangerous place which was crowded with outcasts, rogues, and deadly creatures. They kill anyone who trespasses the boundary to their land. A lot of Alphas have tried severally to take over the land but they couldn't. How could she go to such a dangerous place? Is that how desperate she was to leave me? I felt bad and heartbroken as these thoughts crossed my mind. "I didn't do anything to her. I was only helping her. She asked me to help her get out of your pack, and I did. How is it my fault?" He asked and chuckled darkly. I kicked him, and he fell on his stomach groaning in pain. "Why did you send her there, huh? Don't you know that she's going to die?" I asked and clenched
AsherWhat's wrong with me? I squeezed my face and bit on my lower lips as my stomach ached in pain. I staggered backward and grunted out, unable to bear the excruciating pain which burned my stomach. I crashed hard on the floor with a heavy thud as my legs failed me. I found it hard to feel and move my limbs. Unexpectedly and surprisingly, I becameweak and exhausted with pain burning through every single fiber of my body. I looked up at Derek, who stared at me with a smirk on his face. He knew about what was happening to me. "What's wrong, bro?" He asked and smiled. "Do you feel like you can't muster your internal energy and you can't even connect with your wolf as well?" He asked and laughed wickedly, and I stared at him with a surprised look. How did he manage to know about it? Truly, I found it hard to move my limbs. I couldn't connect to my wolf, Adolph, as well. I felt weak and powerless. "What did you do to me?" I asked in a weak tone and spat out a mouthful of blood. "
Alessia"How do I get out of here without being caught?" I asked in a cold tone as I turned to Derek, who was staring at me with a naughty smile on his face. "Why are you impatient?" He asked, and I sighed trying to control my anger. "Answer my question..""You don't need to be scared. I'm the new Alpha of the pack so no one can go against me," he said, and I scoffed. "You're yet to answer my question," I persisted, and he turned to me with a surprised look on his face. "And that's because I don't want you to go. I would provide you with whatever you want," he said but my stance remained. "I thought I told you that I can't stay in this pack. Do you want to go back on your words?""You said I'll be free once I get rid of my mate which I did so why are you hesitant to let me leave?" I asked, and he turned to me with a cute smile on his face. "That's because I'm in love with you. Nonetheless, I won't stop you from leaving if that's what you want.""And you didn't kill Asher because
Alessia"Are you Asher's mate?" One of them asked, and I nodded my head subconsciously. Their gaze tightened as they turned to me with an angry look on their faces. They stared at me as though they wanted to devour me. It seemed Asher had a blood feud with them. I was not surprised because someone as powerful and ruthless as him must have had a lot of enemies who wished to kill him.What do I do? How would I survive? When would this suffering end? I asked myself with a frustrated look on my face. I whined and bit on my lower lips as a whip landed on my shoulder, opening the wound that was healing. I tried as much as possible not to show my weakness, not to cry. I knew if the whipping continued, I wouldn't be able to hold it for long because my back was aching in pain. I believed that I wasn't going to die even though I was at the point of death. "She's our enemy mate.""Let's kill her. She doesn't deserve to live anyway.""Let's tear her body into shreds and send them to Asher as
EPILOGUEThird POV“It's time,” Asher said and kissed Alessia on her forehead. She looked away and wished for a flushed face before kissing him back. She wiped the beads of tears that rolled down from my eyes as she watched her twin sister being dragged to the execution ground. Maybe triplet sister. Not long after her parents returned, she found out that Alyssa whom she used to hate but protect was her sister and they were triplets. She thought she would be glad to watch her wicked sister die but she couldn't bear it. But her sister still deserved it. She tried to kill her and made her lose her first pregnancy. Asher's supposed heir. “You'll be fine,” Asher muttered and stroked her hair. Of course, they tried to forgive Amelia and redeem her but she claimed to be irredeemable. She wanted to die and pass on to the other side to meet her mate, Xavier. “I'm sorry,” he muttered and hugged her as she watched her sister's head roll down on the execution ground. Finally, everywhere wa
Alessia"When I opened my eyes, I was confused. Everything was blurry and I felt disoriented. I didn't know where I was or what had happened. I tried to sit up, but my body felt weak and sluggish. As my vision began to clear, I realized that I was in a hospital room. There were beeping machines and tubes and wires attached to me. The last thing I remembered was my sister stabbing me, but I couldn't recall anything after that.That's true. How did I manage to come back to life? I asked myself but I couldn't get an answer to it. I couldn't forget the unbearable pain that I felt when she stabbed me with the silver dagger on her right palm. I couldn't forget how blood rushed out of my vagina and stomach. Just as I was wondering how long I'd been in the hospital room, the door creaked open and Asher walked in. “Alessia,” he called out with a surprised look on his face and rushed toward me with his face filled with concerns. “You're finally awake. Wonderful,” he hurled out with exciteme
AlessiaI grunted out as I woke up from my slumber. I opened my eyes and rubbed my hand on my eyes as the rays of the sun pierced into my eyes. I whined as my head ached in pain. I arched my eyebrows and looked around with a confused look as I met myself in a different place and room. Without a second thought, I knew where I was. I was back to his pack, the place where I ran away after I found out that he killed my parents, the people I loved sincerely. “You're awake.”“How are you?” I looked up as I heard his calm yet cute voice in the background. I swallowed hard and bit on my lower lips as my gaze landed on him.“Why do you care to know? And why are you here?” I asked in a cold tone and he shook his head.“I care because you're my mate. This is my room, mate,” he said and I growled. Somehow, the word 'Mate' hit a vulnerable spot in my heart even though I wouldn't admit it. “And maybe I should just leave,” I said and tried to stand up from the bed. I whined in pain and fell on
Alessia“You're not allowed to go out, my lady,” I arched my eyebrows as I glared at the guards, who stood in my way. He was assigned to keep me at bay so I wouldn't be able to leave the house. And for the past few minutes, I have been asking why but he wouldn't give me a sincere reason. “But why?” I asked myself but I couldn't get an answer to it. I decided to force the answer out of him because I feel something bad is about to end. And whatever that happens, it wouldn't be good. “I need your help,” I said as I mind-linked to my mystical wolf, Kai. “What's that?” He asked even though he could read my mind and know what I was thinking. “I want you to help me compel the question out of him,” I said and he smiled. “It's simple. I belong to you and you belong to me so just do it without disturbing me,” he said and the connection went off. I grunted and stood up from the chair. I whined in pain and pretended to fall on the floor with a heavy thud so I could lure him inside. “What
Asher“How may we help you, Alpha?” I looked up as the door creaked open and the Blood Triplets walked in with their suppressing auras. Dean, Damon, and David. I stood up from the chair and stroked my chin gently as I raised my face to look up at them. “I want you to track my mate down. She's in the Red Moon pack,” I said. “The Red Moon pack?”I squeezed out a smile as I watched them hesitate for a second. “Yes, I'll do it if all of you are scared to,” I said and they shook their heads negatively. “No, we'll do it, Alpha. What's the plan?” Dean, who seemed to be the bolder one, asked, and I smirked discreetly. “That's a good question. Once you know where she is hiding, let me know. Don't let her know you're spying on her because I think she's hiding her identity,” I said and they nodded their heads in response. “You'll get a report from us in the next three hours,” David said and I agreed to his statement. “I'll be waiting. Good luck,” I said and they left the chamber. I looked
AsherI closed my eyes as I tried to open my eyes which were heavy and red. I managed to open my eyes after much trial. I was surprised to find myself in a little room that looked like a cell with no Illumination. It was dark and void. What happened to me? That was the first question that came to my mind after I regained consciousness and discovered that I was no longer with Lennox. It was then I realized that I was backstabbed by my childhood. How could he do this to me? Why? Maybe I shouldn't have trusted him. Although he didn't seem to be a bad person when he was young, it seemed he'd become fierce and ruthless just like me, or more than that. But why did he lock me up? He should have killed me. Maybe he needed something from me. I would make sure he doesn't get whatever he needs easily. “Hey. Bring me your Alpha. Tell him that I'm awake,” I yelled and shook the cell vigorously but I got no response. “What's wrong?” I asked myself. “No one is going to hear you so you'd bette
Xavier“Where is she?” I asked and the guard looked up instantly. “She's in the Crystal River,” he responded and I bit on my lower lips. I clenched my fist with an angry look on my face. How dare she leave our pack to our sworn enemy pack? I asked myself but I couldn't get an answer to it. For the past decade, the Red Moon pack has had a blood feud with the Crystal River pack.It came as a surprise that she could go to such a place despite knowing that her life could be endangered. Maybe because she thinks I wouldn't be able to go there to attack them.Well, she's right. I'll do anything even if it's to break down the mountains to bring her back. I wouldn't hesitate to eliminate their family members. “You know what? Bring the Alpha and beta troops to the battlefield. We're heading to the Crystal River pack to bring back my mate,” I ordered the commander, who hurriedly left my throne room. I stood up from the throne room and walked into my chamber. I pulled the wardrobe open and c
AlessiaWhat!A soft gasp escaped from my lips immediately after he uttered the word ‘Strip’. Stripping for him? No, that's not possible. I couldn't imagine myself having sex with the man who stripped me of everything.Not only did he humiliate me in the presence of the pack members but he also wanted to have sex with me. I wouldn't let that happen even if I had to lose my life to it in the process. I won't let him have his way with me. “Pervert,” I wanted to reveal myself badly as I thrust a sword into his heart but I knew it would be too reckless. He had become more powerful than I could think. What am I going to do? If I want to succeed with my mission, I would have to let him have his way with me because there's no way I can sneak attack him. But that's not a good thing. Am I ready to sacrifice myself to have sex with me? Wouldn't it be worth it? I have come a long way and I wouldn't want to lose everything that I'd worked for. “Alyssa,” he called and I looked up. “Why ha
Xavier“What!” A soft gasp left my lips after I heard the revelation. It came as a huge shock to me that I felt a cold shiver run down my spine. However, I didn't believe them. “How is that possible? And what woman were you talking about?” I asked with a cold look on my face. “Don't tell me that you don't know that woman you betrayed, Alpha,” I looked up with a cold look as I heard the voice of the pack witch. She walked into the house with a creepy smile beaming on her face. The room fell silent as she walked in with her powerful auras. “Good day, Alpha,” she greeted me and I nodded my head. “Can you explain what's happening?” I asked and she nodded her head. “Yes. The oracle said that you offended and betrayed a beautiful young lady a few months ago. She's supposed to be your soulmate but you pushed her away with your betrayal.”“Read my lips, Alpha. You won't be able to impregnate any lady apart from her. She's the only one who's capable of giving birth to you,” she said and
