There was no sword or scythe in his hand, like a replica of the god of death that our pack believed in. The naked hand that was so depressed was desperate, dragging my body that was twice as big as his."Hang on! Are you with me? Hang on a little longer!" the figure said. Such a gentle voice, was she my mother? No. My mother never acknowledged me as her son, knowing she gave birth to a useless Alpha who ended up in the prison of his power.The figure that dragged my body along with my back and repeatedly screamed in exhaustion is the only reason my eyes are still open now. Gradually, her loneliness resulted in another presence.Just as slowly, I felt my strength flowing back. From the blood flowing from my fangs, my eyes opened to realize I was biting something so soft and cold."Don't let it go! Swallow it all!" The voice screeched again.I didn't understand. My power was rushing, and I could hear Darwin's voice. It was just that as if the chain holding my body and soul together had
Rosie, what did she just say? Her heart? Even an Alpha wouldn’t be able to survive if someone took her heart. While she easily gave it up? Was someone controlling her mind?“Do...n’t.” My consciousness may not have recovered, but I still had a little bit of strength left from Darwin who was still alive. I tried my best to reach one of them, even though my eyes couldn’t see anything at all.“Luna, Alpha Charles doesn’t seem to agree with your decision, and so do the rest of us. The wisest decision must be made based on an order. Elder Arthur is someone we must trust his words.”Good, keep doing that, slaves. Don’t make Rosie give me her heart. Don’t forget that I still can’t accept her in this castle, which is trying to replace Delancy as my eternal Luna.Don’t think that I am willing to live with a heart given by a weak Luna like her.“You are all the same!”Everyone screamed. Only a scream could I hear. A scream that covered up a big event that I couldn’t see with these eyes. Don't t
“Prince Charles.” Arthur’s voice began to rise. There was no room in hish voice for me to find a defense. The sword was in the form of a disappointed gaze that pierced me at this time, making me only able to hug Rosie's body which was getting colder. Without any resistance.“This time, your coronation will be postponed with great reluctance,” he said. The steps faded before I saw his hand raised. An order to his subordinates, the same as he did when ordering a prison for a criminal.“You will be detained indefinitely. Your mistake this time, we cannot let it go. While we find a way so that the Moon Goddess will not be even more angry with you, until that time comes, we will lock your power.”My head shook at his unreasonable words. “You didn’t even ask why I was here! And you just locked me up like that!? Has age made your head go blank!?”“Watch what you say to the Great Elder!” Arthur’s guard who was of a caste far below me, dared to press my head to the floor to block my resistance
“Forget about me, you have to chase Rosie! Go now before they take her too far!”He slapped my hand away hard and snapped, “You don’t have time to think about others, Your Highness. The one who should be leaving now is you, run away!”What exactly happened? My head suddenly hurt so much. Everything happened in front of me and at the same time passed from my sight. I was there, at the scene, when everything flowed as my life was almost at stake.Something like I had missed in the split second my consciousness went up and down. But wait, could it be that I had fainted for a long time without realizing it?“Your Highness,” Hesse snapped me out of my reverie. My hand had been forcibly pulled by him for some time, dragged to be exact. “Postpone your reverie until after you get on the train. Now, gather your strength and run away as far as you can.”“What the hell happened here!?” I snapped. Unable to bear it, I pulled my hand back until his expression showed annoyance.“They’re going to ki
“Don’t waste your energy just to stop me. Help me or leave, choose one.”“Your Highness!” Hesse ran after me who almost lost track of him. This palace was too quiet, I didn’t see anyone when I walked down the stairs.“Where did all the servants go?” I said. There were only my footsteps and Hesse’s noise behind. A castle this big suddenly became very quiet without anyone guarding it.“They… They were ordered by the Great Elder to take care of the transfer of power to the Great Castle,” Hesse replied. He was still running behind, making me have to turn my head to find him.“With that Alpha?” I asked. I hope he understands who I’m asking now. After being cruel to his own family, don’t expect me to consider that one devil as a brother.“If you mean Prince William, he is with Luna Rosie.” Hesse took out a paper from behind the bamboo bag on his back. “This is a map of Prince William’s secret castle that has been hidden all this time. If my vision is correct, they will take Luna there.”“Yo
Rosie's POV(Time setting: moments before William & Prince Charles' argument)"Luna! You have to get out of here! My brother can't control his powers!" That's what the Alpha said, Alpha Charles, realizing I was starting to become the first witness to their fight.It didn't start this way. My intention was just to straighten out the problems and misunderstandings with Prince Charles. As a result of something I couldn't avoid, this quarrel made the bones in my body magically disappear.The air in front of me was red. It was hot, boiling around an Alpha whose eyelids had turned white. 'Is this what an Alpha's raid looks like?' was my first thought.Putting aside the horror, I could feel how irregular the flow of magic on his body was. This kind of thing can't be allowed, he could be hurt by his power. And what is William doing here!? He kept quiet even though his only brother was being tormented."Luna. If you stay here, you'll get hurt," he said. In front of me, he stood blocking my vis
'No. It's not my blood!'Suddenly, my face turned upwards. A long, sharp sword, out of sight, pierced right through the heart of the Alpha in my arms."Argh!" my scream reflexively went into the air. My head couldn't think straight at the moment. What had happened? Since when? Why didn't I see anyone coming!?"Ah, too bad. The direction of the stab wasn't right." A voice, sitting beside me, right beside me. His existence seemed so invisible that I realized it was him only after he made a sound."Alpha William!?" I hope that I am currently misjudging a hue of reality. It could be that right now the one beside me was just a villain who was able to create illusionary magic, making his face look like an Alpha I knew.Right, that makes more sense. Because it was even more unlikely that Alpha William stabbed his sister in the heart."Luna, I don't want to do this. But, can you let him go?" he spoke. To me, he was pensive as if he had just been captured by a reaper."And don't even think abo
But now I can finally understand it. A situation where there's no one to give you a helping hand, a condition that leaves you with nothing but have nothing else to do but sacrifice the only thing you have.“You realize what you're doing, don't you?” The voice came again. Liliana. After disappearing after the storm of Alpha William's illusions, she again sabotaged my magic control at her whim.“Even a Luna would be in a deadly condition if her heart is missing,” she snapped.“Don't try to stop me,” I said, ignoring his words. “Unless you intend to help. Or, is there nothing else you cando other than interfere with my plans?”“Arrogant girl. How dare you. Don't forget that without my services, you wouldn't have survived all the misfortunes that have been have bound you since birth.”It's not often that the two of us fight like this, let alone in a deadly precarious situation. No matter what, I had to be able to untie Liliana's bonds that were blocking my hands now.“A Luna can still liv
Rosie's POVPrince Charles is just using me? Just because my face is similar to that Luna, he mated with me? Just because he wants to make me his replacement Luna? Luna Delancy, she has a very similar face to me. No wonder when I first met her back then, I felt like I saw myself in her.'Could it be that long ago, Prince Charles had it all planned out? There's no way he brought me to this castle without planning it from the start. If so, is the reason he agreed to my revenge agreement because my face resembles Luna Delancy?' My head was spinning thinking about this.I know what I'm witnessing now is just a dream. I realize this isn't real. But a Luna never really just sees a dream without any meaning in it. The dream I see now, too, is part of my successor's past. In other words, the Moon Goddess wanted to show me something.The screeching sound of the horse-drawn carriage tires fighting against the steepness of the broken road woke me up from the darkness of the nightmare abyss. My e
Rosie’s POVLike being pulled into a different dimension, for several moments, my body remained rooted to the spot where I stood with my eyes fixed on Luna standing with Prince Charles in front of me.It was like I was watching a show in which there was a story about a Luna who looked exactly like me, let alone a face that was so similar and almost gapless, it was exactly like mine!In fact, I was so similar to her that I felt as if I was watching my own story from a different world. Because if she really was Prince Charles' fiancée five years ago, that means that Luna no longer exists in my world today.There, I saw Prince Charles who was spending time with Luna in a park in the afternoon. They were both watching the spring flowers fall, occasionally the flowers would fall and hit them. It was like being in a play and they were the main actors, of course there would be a trumpet filled with small colorful paper that would fly up and fall on them when the play finished satisfactorily.
Rosie’s POVThe sound of the horse-drawn carriage running on this uneven road made me feel even more disturbed, its loud sound piercing into my eardrums and making me feel even more annoyed. It was as if something was telling me to get off this horse-drawn carriage immediately, even though I knew for sure that wouldn't be possible.“Stop this carriage, put me down!” Ever since I was forcibly taken by them on this horse, I've always tried to rebel and put up a small fight so that they would stop the horse-drawn carriage that I was currently riding.I didn't want to leave, so I tried my best to make the carriage stop running. At least until I get the chance to get off and escape from here, or until I have the chance to go back and refuse to get on this carriage.But my words were just taken for granted, everyone was still busy with their respective tasks. They were actually doing what Prince Charles ordered to take me away from his palace, no matter if they had to coerce me like this.“
Alexa’s POV'Prince Wiliam, I can hardly believe it was you who did all this to me. If it hadn't been for me experiencing it myself, I might not have believed that you would be so heartless to an omega that you didn't want,' I thought while staring sadly at the Alpha who walked away from my original position, a prince who apparently didn't have the attitude of a knight.Someone who didn't show the slightest compassion even though he knew what I was going to do had a lot of risks, but he stuck with his decision.I know I'm the one who made it all happen in the first place, but doesn't he have a better solution than forcing me to face a fear I've never imagined before?Doesn't he have a better solution without having to humiliate me like this?Really, even crying won't heal the shame inside me. If I could, I would probably prefer to drown or disappear right now, but unfortunately I can't do that at all.These eyes then fell on Prince William who stepped away to leave me in the medical r
Alexa’s POVThe sound of Prince William's punch rang out loudly in the medical room, obviously because he hit me so hard that I fell to the ground in a terrible heap.‘Oh my god, that hurts! I didn't expect Prince William to be able to do this to me, I thought he would never dare to do violence to me because I was a woman here. I didn't expect that he could do that too,'’ I thought.I thought Prince William would feel pity and compassion for me who had gone through so much grief, grief that wasn't just ordinary grief, but I really felt sad and was afraid that I would have problems with the surgery.I was really afraid that if I were to die during the surgery, what would happen to me next? I was afraid of all the bad things that could happen to me now or in the future, but why did Prince William not want to understand my fears at all?Is my life so insignificant to him that he can even ignore these heart-wrenching cries?Not only that, but Prince William was also really so heartless t
William’s POVThe roar of my breath was getting worse as my ears continued to hear what Alexa said, it felt like all my struggles to hold back the turmoil of anger that had infiltrated my heart and head felt increasingly doused with oil to make me even more furious, if only it could be described, this anger must have made my head smoke because it was too long to hold it.I had been trying so hard to hold back my anger so as not to hurt Alexa who was testing my patience so much, but I couldn't hold back any longer. Even my hands were itching not to hurt her, Alexa was really testing my patience and kept provoking my emotions until I couldn't hold it in anymore.Slap!rgh!'' Alexa winced in pain as I unhesitatingly slapped her on the left cheek, furious that the omega kept begging me to save the baby inside her, annoyed that Alexa kept begging me to let the baby grow and be born into the world.Does she want to cause trouble for me and create trouble for herself?That omega really could
William’s POVDozens of times I had asked Alexa what made her choose to keep the pregnancy and hide it from me, ignoring my orders to terminate the pregnancy.But unfortunately Alexa was not at all willing to open her mouth and answer the questions I gave her, she remained silent and closed her mouth tightly.Obviously this made me even angrier at her and made the embers of anger inside me burn even more fiercely, it was only a matter of time before it could come out and burn Alexa without residue.''Alexa, I'm still waiting for an answer from that mouth of yours. You better say it now before I do something to you, you do know that I never play around with what I say, right?'' It was useless, no matter how many times I asked.Alexa would still close her mouth and not be willing to open it to say a word from her mouth. That obviously made me even more angry with what Alexa was doing, her silent action made me even more fed up with the drama she was creating.Alexa acted like I had no r
William’s POV''I really can't wrap my mind around that! How could you choose to keep that baby, when you already know that its presence is very dangerous for our future lives. I really can't digest that. Your decision really can't reach my mind right now, you're so naïve and so stubborn!''''It wasn't just once or twice that I told you to terminate the pregnancy, but why did you insist on keeping it?! Did you not use your brain to think clearly before making that decision!?''''How did you think that through! How could you choose to keep the pregnancy and let the baby continue to grow there until it got that big,'' I scolded Alexa in front of me, not caring about her who was already looking sad and was starting to get confused about what to say in response to my words.''All this time, I've known many other omegas who were far beneath you! But I've never found an omega dumber than you in the entire pack, you don't even have a fraction of the intelligence of those omegas who are far s
William’s POVSeeing how I stared at her and looked at her belly which was different from her normal size, alexa also seemed to be silent and mute. No longer daring to speak or move rebelliously like just a moment ago, she was completely silent with a very clear look of fear in her eyes.It's possible that she realized that she was caught red-handed by me and might not have a chance to escape or make excuses and deflect in front of me, I'm certainly not someone who is very easy to trick.Was it perhaps because of all that that he preferred to keep quiet and shut his mouth tightly?That Omega even just stood still without looking at me at all, he looked like someone who was frightened by the thought of something that he thought he could hide from me all this time but in the end had to be exposed so easily.''Alexa, tell me something. Don't you want to explain anything to me?'' I said, trying to provoke Alexa into talking, even though it all seemed useless. Alexa remained silent without
