AlessiaHuh?I turned to him with a confused look on my face, trying to mask my expression which he must have already read through. He stared at me emotionlessly with a cold and murderous gaze. He wasn't ready for any joke or child play. "I made it specially for you so I don't think it's appropriate to drink with you," I said and smiled awkwardly, trying to ease the tense atmosphere. "Are you sure you don't want to drink with me because you made the coffee especially for me?" He asked as he caressed the mug with a cold look on his face. I nodded my head quickly and said in a cold tone. "Yeah. Or do you have a problem with that? If you don't want it, I can take it away."I approached him and reached out to the mug that was in his left hand. He moved his hand sideways, and I missed. He glared at me with a cold look on his face. "Not so fast. Why are you in a hurry? Are you scared that you're not safe?" He asked and giggled. I couldn't afford to drink the coffee because I knew how s
AlessiaI whined in pain as I lay on the wet floor of the dungeon. I stood up from the floor, unable to sleep on it because my body was filled with bruises and blood. My head banged with pain, and my entire body burned with excruciating pain. Every part of my body was filled with bruises. I wish I could do something about my miserable life. I shook my head with a sigh as I stared at my stomach which grumbled loudly. I haven't eaten anything or drunk anything after I was caught and brought to this dungeon. I have stayed in the dungeon for as long as I can remember. I wasn't allowed to leave the dungeon like the other prisoners, who had the privilege to exercise in the dungeon field. I knew I was going to die of hunger and thirst if they refused to kill me. They have been coming regularly to torture me. I looked up and listened to the discussion that the guards on duty were having outside my dungeon. "That girl has been in that dungeon for the past seven days and she hasn't died de
LennoxWhat!I exclaimed and stared at her in disbelief when I heard her last statement. The Beta of the pack? That was impossible. How could she ask for such a prestigious and important post in the pack? I asked myself but I couldn't get an answer to it. I clenched my fist with an angry look on my face. "How dare you ask for such an important post?" I asked and my voice trembled in anger. "Please take care, Alpha," two guards and Gideon rushed toward me after I coughed out, unable to soothe the anger that surged through my veins. I glared at them with a cold look on my face. "Stay away. I'm fine," I said even though I wasn't. I knew I was going to die if I didn't get the antidote as soon as possible. I hated to be weak or vulnerable, it made me look useless and powerless. "What do you say?" She asked in a cold tone. "I hope you aren't relying on your inner wolf power. In the next five hours, your wolf would have a heart attack and die, then you'll suffer miserably before dying,"
Alessia"Please don't take me away. The antidote is real. Please be patient. You'll be fine," I pleaded desperately after hearing his declaration. I was going to be thrown into the dungeon that was filled with evil enchanted bears. The enchanted bears were known for their evil and ruthlessness. And they were bloodthirsty animals. There was no way I would be able to survive if I was taken to that dungeon. I knew I was going to die for real but I didn't want that to happen. There were a lot of things that I was yet to achieve so I didn't think I was ready to die. I was yet to make the brutal comeback that I promised them after they broke my heart. He stared at me blankly, not ready to listen to my pleas. He must have believed that I poisoned him again. I wished he could believe me but he was blinded by anger and vengeance. I hoped he didn't regret his action later. I didn't want to die but I knew I was going to die if I was taken to that dungeon. I pushed the guards away, rushed int
LennoxWhat's happening to me? I asked myself with a confused look on my face as I felt another surge of energy flow through my veins, renewing the energy and strength that I'd lost. I screamed out in pain as my bone cracked and my stomach burned with excruciating pain. I placed my hand on my stomach and clutched it tightly until the pain subdued and died down like nothing ever happened. I staggered back to my feet and held my stomach. Surprisingly, I didn't feel any pain in my abdomen. It seemed the poison had been erased from my stomach, and that meant only one thing, what Alessia did was right. She didn't poison me. My heart skipped in fear as these thoughts crossed my mind. "Gideon," I called in a cold and fierce tone. The door pulled open with a creak sound and Gideon rushed into the room. "What's wrong, Alpha?" He asked worriedly. "Your body… the poison?""Yeah. I'm fine. It has been erased by that antidote," I said, and he stared at me with a surprised look. He was unable
Alessia"The powder you made for me worked effectively. I love it. How did you make it?" Alpha Lennox asked as he stood up from the bed in a red robe. "That's my little secret. You don't need to know," I said and stood up from the couch. "I'll take my leave," I muttered and bowed my head, heading to the door when I heard a voice from behind. "Where are you going?" He asked in a cold tone, and I turned to him. "I'm leaving," I arched my eyebrows and replied to him casually. "How would you leave without doing the work you're required to do?" He asked, and I stared at him with a confused look. What did he mean by that? I was done with the paperwork he asked me to do, right?After only two days working as the Beta, he had been giving me a lot of jobs and paperwork for me to execute and work on. He made sure I made no mistake. "What work? I thought I was done with the job, right?" I asked, and he shook his head in response. My heart skipped a million beats after he winked and smiled
Alessia Crime? "What have I done?" I asked with a confused look on my face, and he looked away. "That question is not for me to answer. You'll find out when you get to the Alpha's throne room," he said, and I gulped down into nothing. Somehow, I was scared despite not knowing what I'd done. I didn't want to be framed like the other time that I was thrown into a dungeon where I was almost killed by enchanted bears but fortunately, I got saved by my blood that strangely turned into a red pearl. This time, I might not be able to be saved so I was scared and concerned. "You should be on your way by now," he said in a cold tone, bringing me out of my world of thought that I didn't know I was drowned in. "Fine," I said and followed the path that he took to get to Lennox's office. Getting to his house, I took a deep breath and hesitated to knock on the door. I didn't know if I wanted to meet him or not. Even though I knew I shouldn't be scared of him as his Beta, I couldn't hel
LennoxI smiled in satisfaction and stroked my chin gently as I watched Alessia leave my room. Surprisingly, I had grown fond of her without noticing it. She was indeed a good person to play and flirt with, and I enjoyed it. The mission I gave to her was indeed a deadly mission but she didn't know. I did that to test her ability. I was sure she was going to loathe me when she got there and met the Frost Dragon. I didn't send her there to kill her because I couldn't afford any danger to her. "Alpha," I snapped out of my thoughts and looked up as Gideon called out to me. I looked up and turned to him, swirling the swivel chair to the left where he was. He came closer to me and bowed his head respectfully. "I want you to protect Alessia at all costs and make sure nothing happens to her. If anything happens to her, I won't hesitate to kill you so do your best to protect her.""We both know that the Dynasty Frost mountain is dangerous and not for someone like her to stay longer so you
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
