Alpha Lowell pov

Submerged in a sea of fury, I felt the sting of fresh wounds in my chest, each breath a laborious task. Power was all I craved—was it such an outrageous desire? Was I not deemed worthy? If the goddess would not grant me the mantle of moon guardian, then I would seize it by any means necessary, even if it meant embracing the flames. After all, my rise to Alpha was no stroke of luck; I was always destined for greatness, deserving of all that is good. I demand subservience, the world at my feet. Yet, as the morning sunlight kissed my face, lying in my bed of opulence, I knew that satisfaction was a sign of weakness.

"Good morning, my love," Luna Desi's voice broke through my reverie.

"Good morning, beautiful," I replied, my tone softer than I felt, and she disappeared into the bathroom.

A knock at the door jolted me. "Who the hell is that?" I barked.

"You have a visitor, my alpha," the guard informed me.

At this ungodly hour? Did they not fear me as their Alpha? "Tell wh

    Alpha lowell povI sat at the dining table, the soft clinking of cutlery and murmur of conversation around me doing little to penetrate the fog in my mind. The food on my plate remained untouched, its once-appetizing aroma now repulsive. My thoughts spiraled, tangled in a web of fear and frustration. How could I possibly get Norella? Each day, the reality of her situation with King Jason loomed larger, his power a formidable barrier I saw no way to breach. I gripped the edge of the table, my knuckles white, the weight of the dilemma pressing down on me like a physical force.Luna Desi's voice sliced through my turbulent thoughts, clear and sharp. "Why haven't you touched your food, darling?" Her words pulled me from my reverie, and I forced a smile, though it felt as thin and brittle as glass."Oh, I'm fine, just not very hungry tonight."She looked at me, concern etched on her face.

    Alpha lowell pov The shadows deepened as I approached Strengha's hideout, the thick canopy above blocking out the moonlight and casting the forest in an oppressive gloom. The air was thick with an eerie silence, broken only by the distant hoot of an owl. Two of Strengha's men materialized from the darkness, their figures stiff and wary. Their eyes darted towards me, a brief flash of hesitation betraying their fear. They weren't as confident as they tried to appear."Who the hell are you?" one of them growled, his voice rough and edged with suspicion. He took a step forward, trying to mask his unease with bravado."I want to see your leader," I said, keeping my tone calm and controlled. My eyes locked onto his, challenging him silently to test my resolve."That's not the answer to my question," he snapped, stepping closer until we were almost nose to nose. The smell of sweat and fear rolled off him in waves."Tell him Alpha Lowell wants to see him," I repeated, my patience fraying at

    Norella Pov Today's the big day—my eighteenth birthday and the ball. It's the day I've been waiting for, the day I finally break free from being treated like a maid, or worse, a slave. The dress on my lap might be simple, but it's beautiful, a blue that matches my eyes. Running my fingers over the fabric, I think about how long I've saved up for it. It's not fancy or expensive, but it's mine, and tonight, I won't be the 'worthless omega' everyone calls me.Madame Maggie's been my lifeline, slipping me money when she can. Without her, I couldn't have even dreamed of buying this dress, let alone the heels to go with it. "You should be getting ready now, Norella," she says, peeking in from the doorway. She's been there for a bit, I guess. I was lost in my thoughts. "I will," I tell her, heading to the bathroom. "I'm heading out now," she says, leaving the room.Madame Maggie's more than just the head maid here; she's been like a mom to me since I lost mine. She's the only one who doesn'

    Norella Pov I was all set to dash towards her when I heard Luna desi familiar voice, "What's going on?" she asked. I quickly pulled myself together as she glided gracefully toward us, repeating, "Seriously, what's happening here?" By then, I was already trembling uncontrollably, unsure why fear gripped me so tightly. Myra then filled Luna desi in on the situation. "There's a fancy dress in my room for you. I didn't know your dad had already gotten you one. Hurry, go change before the ball kicks off." Luna desi said, and Myra happily trotted off, while Luna desi followed her, barely acknowledging my presence.Then, out of the blue, Luna turned to me. "Why are you standing there like a lost pup?" she snapped. I managed to stutter, "My dress..." but before I could finish, she cut me off, saying, "I don't have time for your petty concerns. Besides, it suits you, so you're wearing it to the ball.""I can't," I protested. What did I expect, a new dress? Definitely not. I had to figure some

    Norella Pov Three days have passed since the rejection, yet the ache lingers, unyielding and ever-present. Ama, my wolf, is wounded deeply, her silence a testament to the pain we share. I let the tears fall, a silent river, as I scrub the dishes, my thoughts as fragmented as my dreams of escape.Was this my fate? To be mateless, to endure this torment indefinitely? The goddess's whims seemed cruel, unjust. But I refuse to crumble, to let my spirit shatter like delicate glass. I must leave, find solace away from this place that has always been a prison.Madame Maggie's voice cuts through my reverie, "The alpha wants to see you." Her words, likely a message from the alpha himself, send a shiver down my spine. He didn't reach out to me directly, convinced I've lost all connection to our kind.With a heavy heart, I abandon the soapy water and make my way to the alpha's office. Fear gnaws at me with each step. He'll question me about my wolf, no doubt. It's the only reason he ever summons

  • The Omega's Fate    back to hell

    Norella Pov I blinked open my eyes, and for a fleeting moment, it felt like a mere second had passed. But the familiar surroundings told a different tale. How could it be? The walls of Madame Maggie's room closed in around me, a stark reminder that I was back in the pack. No, no, this couldn't be happening. How was I supposed to make sense of this?. Panic surged through me as I leapt from the bed. I was dead, wasn't I? Yet here I was, trapped in this infernal place, and I knew the torment awaiting me would be far worse than any hell I'd imagined. A swift end, that's what I yearned for—to be freed from this cruel world with the quickness of a falling guillotine.Frantically, I rifled through the drawers, searching for anything that could grant me escape. I'd rather embrace death than continue in this pack, especially when my connection to my wolf is so weak. The room yielded nothing, fueling my desperation.I needed to act before anyone would come in. Weakness gripped me, dizziness c

    Norella Pov King Jason's voice cut through the tension, "What's so urgent?"Alpha Lowell's reply was laced with a feigned concern that didn't sit right with me. "It's about Norella. I know she might have said some things, but I want you to be aware of her condition, Your Majesty.""Somethings like what?" King Jason's tone was sharp, demanding.I strained to hear more, my heart pounding against my chest. What was Lowell plotting now? The urge to burst out and reveal everything to King Jason was overwhelming, but fear rooted me to the spot. Would he cast me aside, leaving me to the mercy of this pack?Their voices became distant murmurs, my imperfect hearing betraying me. Then, Lowell's voice pierced through, clear and cold. "It's not possible; she can't be your mate. She has mental issues ever since her parents died. She's so aggressive we have to feed her wolfsbane so she wouldn't be harmful. Think about it, she could even kill the pups she will bear."His lies stung like venom. How

As I settled into the seat, Alpha Lowell emerged, his voice laced with caution. “Think about what you’re about to do, Your Majesty,” he implored King Jason. But Jason might as well have been alone for all the attention he paid, sliding into the driver’s seat, igniting the engine, and accelerating away with a determination that rendered the world outside a blur The drive was a silent movie, with me playing the mute damsel in distress. Words failed me, lodged in my throat by the intensity of his gaze—so stern, so unyielding. It was a look that spoke of storms and battles, of a man who had seen too much yet dared to hope. His belief in me was a novel sensation, a fragile gift no one had ever bestowed upon me before. My gaze was drawn to the trees whipping past, their forms melding into a green streak as we sped on. The urge to plead with him to ease his pace was there, but fear he

    Alpha Lowell's POV:The room felt too small to contain my anger. "How could King Jason ruin everything I've worked for, just like that?" I muttered under my breath. Years of planning, gone in an instant because he believes in some 'fated mate.' If only he knew the storm he's inviting right over his head. And then there's Maggie. It's a hard lesson; being good to people doesn't always pay off. After everything I've done for her, she still didn't do the one thing I asked. She didn't give Norella the wolfsbane when she was in this pack.I could feel the heat of my anger as I spoke to Desi. "She's going to regret it," I said firmly. "We'll see what happens when she comes back. I don't make plans that fail. They're going to pay for their mistakes, my alpha," Desi reassured me. But deep down, I knew it wasn't going to be that easy. If it were any other alpha, I wouldn't worry. But the Alpha King? I need to be more than prepared. I can't just challenge him; he's too powerful.The glass of wi

    norella pov"Someone is here to see you," Jane's voice cut through the stillness, a note of mystery in her tone. "She said she's an old friend," she added, as if sensing the whirlwind of questions in my mind."An old friend?" I echoed, skepticism lacing my words. The concept felt foreign; in the Blue Moon Pack, friendship was a luxury I couldn't afford, a dream tethered by the chains of my servitude. I probed Jane's thoughts, seeking the truth, but found only sincerity. She was unaware of the visitor's identity, just as I was.With a mixture of trepidation and curiosity, I rose and made my way to the visitor, Jane trailing behind me. Entering the room, I was met with the sight of Jason conversing with a woman whose back was turned to me. As she rotated, time seemed to stand still. It was Madame Margret."Greetings, my lady," she said, her voice a familiar melody from a forgotten song.Words failed me. Instead, I leapt into her arms, our embrace a silent testament to the years that had

"We'll be fine," Ama assured me, her voice a soft echo in the vastness of my room."Yeah, we will," I replied, more to myself than to her, as I crossed the threshold and let the comfort of my bed envelop me in its embrace. Sleep came as a merciful oblivion, a brief respite from the turmoil of my heart.**The next morning...**Sunlight streamed in, chasing away the shadows of the night as Jane flung the curtains wide. "Good morning, my lady," she chimed, her voice a familiar melody in the dawn chorus."Good morning, Jane," I greeted back, the lines between maid and friend long since blurred. She had seen the worst of what life had to offer, just as I had, and I could no more treat her as a servant than I could forget my own past."I've prepared hot water for your bath," she informed me, her thoughtfulness a balm to my weary soul."Thank you," I said, grateful for the simple kindne

"Jarl?" I called out, but there was no answer, no familiar presence to ease the growing tension."Guards!" My voice rose, seeking the reassurance of their response, but again, there was only silence. "Marcos!" I called for my right-hand guard, but the void returned no reply.I hurried to the upper floor, my heart pounding with each step. The corridors were deserted, the absence of life unnerving. A glimpse of a figure turned a corner, and I chased after it. "Norella, Norella!" I shouted, hope flaring briefly, but when I reached the spot, it was empty.Norella's door stood ajar, an invitation or a taunt, I couldn't tell. I rushed in, but she wasn't there. The room was immaculate, untouched, as if waiting for her return. I searched frantically, but there was no sign of intrusion, no hint of her pres

"What are we to do?"Ama's presence was a gentle caress against the turmoil in my soul. "Norella," she soothed, her voice a balm to my frayed nerves, "he is our destined mate. Our paths are entwined, whether we will it or not."I was on the cusp of baring my soul to her when a faint noise at the door snagged my attention. My heart stuttered, caught between the echoes of the past and the fear of the unknown. The knock came again, a soft but determined sound that seemed to resonate with the beating of my heart.With trepidation lacing my steps, I moved toward the door. The peephole revealed Jason's form. My breath hitched, desire and dread warring within me."Are you there?" His hushed tone was a caress against the wood, a sound that made my skin tingle.
