Axel's POV

The soft echoes of cicadas and the whoosh of leaves rang in my ears, giving me a momentary comfort. My eyes fluttered close as I savored the sweet scent of peace and comfort.

But this peace was short-lived as reality sank in slowly. I clenched my fists slowly, feeling the tangled emotions in my heart.

Exalia's pretty face emerged in my mind, and a complex feeling arose from the bottom of my heart, making me furrow my brows.

Another feeling of dilemma took its place, and I felt as if a heavy stone had been placed on my chest, suffocating me.

The bond I felt with Exalie was anything but ordinary. A mating bond is sacred and pure, a bond that cannot easily be broken.

Yet, this bond weighs heavily on me like shackles.

My past actions seemed to reappear in my eyes once again, a memory that would either break the bond between Exalia and me or strengthen it.

A distant memory suddenly emerged from the back of my mind, and I stiffened.

That particular day, I had been in a bad mood

    Axel's POV“A council meeting?” I muttered to myself in puzzlement before shrugging.Pushing the distracting thoughts to the back of my mind, I made my way back towards my pack. After many trials and stress, I was finally able to merge my pack with the Moon Launch Pack, which was also Kiera's pack.Surprisingly, their Alpha had absconded with his mate even before the battle had started. I snorted when I remembered that memory.I couldn't figure out how that coward became their Alpha, such a wimp.Thankfully, Kiera still cares about this pack; if not, I wouldn't have bothered about the merging.Taking large strides, I finally arrived in the hall and strode in calmly. The noisy hall instantly quietened as I made my way in.Without glancing at any of them, I took my seat on the center chair at the far end of the hall before looking around the hall.The Elders from my pack and the Elders from the Moon launch pack sat on each side.“So, what's this meeting about?” I asked calmly, staring a

     Axel's POV  According to its name, a spiked whip has jagged metal spikes, intricately embedded along its coiled length, with each spike enough to tear through flesh with remarkable ease. No matter how powerful your healing abilities were, you would still feel the excruciating pain of having your flesh torn before it had the time to heal. And it was a process that would repeatedly occur. The handle was carved from sturdy oak, one that wouldn't break so easily and could withstand the tortures of time. One of the Elders instantly retreated, taking one step at a time backward with his gaze darting from my face to the warriors holding one whip in their hands.  “W… What do you plan to do?” He stammered, and I smirked deviously.  “What does it look like? Didn't you want an elevation in your status?” I asked, crossing my arms with a smile that didn't reach the depths of my eyes.  The elder flinched, a

     Axel's POV  My brows shot up in surprise, but apprehension. I stared at the trembling Elders at the center of the hall and couldn't help but to pursue my lips in annoyance.  What would Exalia think if she saw this scene? Looking at the old men groaning in pain, I suddenly felt irritated and angry. I should have eliminated all of them instead of bringing them here. Initially, I brought them here with the mindset that Exalia still feels a touch of belonging to the pack and the people. And I intended to use this to make her accept me, but now I couldn't help but to think that I've made a mistake. Moreover, it wasn't clear to me why Exalia, who had always shown her obvious detest towards me, would want to see me all of a sudden.  Apart from the feeling of having my heart scratched by something, I felt a slight trepidation. Especially when I remembered all I have done to her family members. Could it be that

     Exalia's POV I glanced at the man with complex emotions, but the one that prevailed the most was hatred and a slight disgust.  Back in the Pack, my life couldn't be considered to be smooth sailing, but I had my family with me. Yet now, I have no one, and he even imposes his will on me, forcing me to do things I never wanted to. He wouldn't allow me to live for myself, nor did he give me any leeway. If not for him, the only two family members I had would not be missing by now, and I wouldn't have to worry about them each and every day. Moreover, he claims that I am his mate; I'm very sure he's just trying to force me to be with him. Although I've been rejected, I still feel the broken bond with Jake. It's obvious he's merely lying to have me to himself. “I want to leave.” I repeated when I noticed how silent he had become. With his gaze fixated on me, I stared back, not cowering in the slightest.

    Exalia's POV Axel's lips curled upwards in amusement, “I have what it takes to keep you here forever. If I don't want you to leave, then you won't be able to.” He asserted, staring down at me with that same sickening smile.I glared at me, my boiling anger simmering, and on the verge of erupting. But I held back, my gaze boring at his smug expression.“You can continue pushing your weight around, in due time, Alpha Jake will come back and take me from here. You wouldn't even be able to do anything because he's my true mate. For all your strength, you are just an empty, cold tyrant. Hiding behind your title won't change that!” I spat out maliciously. A flash of something ominous flickered in Axel's eyes instantly, his smile faltered, and the temperature in the room suddenly became lower.A bad foreboding emerged in my heart, but I would rather not show any signs of weakness. I didn't want him to see me as a delicate vase, meant to be kept and confined in a space.“What did you just

Now, I didn't even have the right to walk around, who wouldn't get angry at that?“It's for your own good, believe it or not. Until you star

Temptress!” Each word is more hurtful than the last, and they hurt more than the stones and rotten eggs thrown at me.Initially, due to my father's position in the Pack, they would merely cast scornful and contemptuous gazes at me, but now that I had nobody to defend me, they

They probably didn't recognize Axel, and even though they were fearful of his oppressive aura, they still parted their lips to talk.“Are you also one of the men she seduced? Let me tell you, that woman is a jinx. Nothing good ever comes from interacting with her.” One woman spat out, hatefully.Another chimed in, “She will ruin you, so you better leave her to us before it is too late.” She uttered through gritted teeth, the sound almost palpable.I could feel the slight tremors from Axel's body, and my heart shook; He was angry, furious even.Yet, the women did not stop and continued hurling words of abuse towards me, making me burrow into Axel's embrace unconsciously, to hide.And, when I realized what I had just done, my cheeks burned in embarrassment

I could feel that we would be united and together once more and never to separate again. Saturday went on and throughout the period, my thoughts were a hundred percent with Exalia.All I could think of was the sweet, loving and romantic memories we shared, times when she would kiss me and tell me that she would always be there for me.I could picture her reading my letter, surely she would feel the same mixture of joy and sorrow while she read it.

    Alex’s pov.Alex’s letter.It was Saturday and it was a work and rest day.Also, it was the last Saturday of the month, and that meant that it was the monthly Environmental Sanitation Day.This was a ritual sanitation that was done throughout the whole pack every last Saturday of the month and today was one of such days.I was out early, to oversee the day’s activities and make sure that every region and corner of the pack was taken care of and cleaned, all the dirts and refuse were removed and discarded appropriately.But thinking about it deeply, one could observe and notice that there was something about this work.There was something grounding about watching all members of our pack come together and put in effort for us to achieve a common good goal.I was in the process of organizing a particular group of young lads and girls to clean a river bank that had been dirty for weeks when a sudden commotion from a distance caught my attention instantly.A young lad, apparently a dispatc

    Alex’s pov"Hey Alex, the love my life. How are you doing? Well you know you’re fine but I want to let you know that I’ve missed you so much.” I paused and looked at the letter I was writing, I thought about what next to say, and then I took a deep breath and continued writing.“Staying here has not been easy, I have experienced a lot in the short span of a month but I just got to keep going. As I grow stronger here day by day, I simply realize how much I need your strength, love and support by my side, i must confess that it has not been easy without you. Nevertheless,I am learning so much and that’s on period, Alex, but learning without you by my side to tell me congratulations and cheer me up feels so incomplete. I love you so much Alex, I really do. And I count the moments until I can return home to your arms once more."I paused again and looked at the letter I had just written, then I took a deep breath and read it out again.

    Exalia’s pov It had been almost a month and two weeks since I had left my home pack to the Lunari kingdom.Ever since I got there, I had been receiving intensive training and preparations for the coming rituals ceremony that would crown me as the empress of the Lunari and break the tribe from the curse so that they would be finally free.The training with the Lunari was intensive and very very rigorous,each day it was from training to training and excercise to excercise.They made me push to my limits that I never knew I could even get to. I was taught a lot of things, like the ancient art and skill of harnessing lunar energy, I was taught the art of shifting into werewolf form with both grace and power. I was even taught the secretes of lineage and they flowed into me like a river. I was a fast learner and surely I was learning very fast, Eldric had told me that after my training and the rituals have been performed, I was free to go back to my pack provided i come and visit once

    Alex’s pov.Marcus described the offensive tactics that our military often employed, he detailed vividly, how we would use our terrain and make use of the popularly used element of surprise, together with the combined valour and might of all our military units. “This is great work you have put up Marcus, I’m proud of you.” I said to him and he smiled and said thanks, and he continued his explanation.“If there is an attack, we would envelope the enemy using Skirmishers to flank them while the vanguard will push forward, this would cause great confusion and allow our military to go ahead and exploit the weaknesses in the enemy formation.”I listened attentively to what Marcus had been saying and I could do was smile in pride at the smartness and strength of my military.In my mind's eye, I pictured everything he was saying. “What if we are caught off guard?” I asked in anticipation, and Marcus had the exact answer.“If we are caught off guard, we would fall back to our strong base dow

    Alex’s pov Soon, the meat was on fire and as the aroma of cooking meat started to fill the air, I started feeling a deep sense of contentment and satisfaction. Apparently, this feeling came not just from the hunt or the meal it was going to provide for me, it rather came from the fact that I had renewed my bond with the wild. That was the very essence of being a werewolf and an Alpha for that matter, and I was happy and felt proud of myself.This morning’s feeding was not just my body that I fed,I also fed my spirit. I reconnected with the primal animal instincts, I reconnected with the pack, and most importantly, I reconnected with the land that was ours.This was something I needed to do more often.After breakfast, I commend the cooks for cooking such a beautiful and delicious meal. They blushed and thanked me, with surprise in their faces, it wasn’t all the time I smiled and played with my staff.I walked to the barracks to see what was happening there, a few soldiers were t

    Alex’s pov.After taking another bath, I decided to walk out of my room and go outside to take a stroll. It was definitely something I could do, especially as it was still evening. As I stepped outside my room, I bumped into Marcus, and he was just looking at me.His eyes widened slowly and he stared at me in a way that showed surprise. He had definitely seen the change in me ."Wow Alpha, I almost didn’t recognize you, you look... different," he said, still staring at me, his tone a mix of surprise, awe and curiosity.I smiled as I felt the truth of his observations vibrate through my body.“Marcus, I feel so different. I spent time meditating and focused on enhancing every single aspect of what we are, I feel I have awakened something from within.”Marcus looked at me, smiled and nodded, his gaze started to assess, maybe he was even gauging if I was ready for what was to come. "Alpha Alex, Your aura, it's stronger and very much more vibrant than it used to be. I can feel it."“Wel

    Alex’s pov.“Okay we’re all going to make this our number one priority, I hope that’s clear?“ I said with a tone of command and they both nodded. “One more thing, while we’re at it, I want you guys to provide me with a list of all the local governments and villages that fall within our kingdom and pack.”“Okay?” Lena said, somewhat surprised that I was making such a request. “I want to make sure that they’re all getting the social amenities that they deserve, no one should suffer from lack or underdevelopment.” As they both went to carry out my instructions, I just sat back on my chair, I looked around at the whole bunch of responsibilities before me, it was definitely not easy being an Alpha. Most people would think it was just an easy task but not until they tried it out. This wasn’t just governance, In Fact it was more than just governance, this was about caring for every single pack member and ensuring that they were comfortable and living the best standard.This was my respo

    Alex’s povThe next day, I woke up at the same time with the sun. I was feeling happy and sweet as I had had a wonderful night's rest. The sun’s rays were so sharp and bright that it pierced through the heavy walls and penetrated through the curtains of my chambers. It brought in illumination and a big surge of energy into my room. I felt so happy and alive. Do you know the kind of vigor and joy that comes with knowing you're where you're meant to be, doing what you're meant to do? No, I don’t think anyone knew that feeling except me. I stretched my arms and then after a few seconds, I made my way to the balcony. This was my special balcony and it was located at the topmost floor of the palace, just close to my room. The cool morning air was so refreshing and cold and for a moment, I thought I would catch a cold.From the balcony high above, I looked down below at the pack, to the beautiful sight of our kingdom. The site was so magnificent and beautiful and the grass stretch
