"Don't ever in your miserable life say that again! What power do you have to make me Alpha? With your weakling powerless wolf, that's almost nonexistent?" Thomas laughed harshly, as he looked down on me, where I lay on the ground. *** Knowing her lover and friend is her mate, was meant to be the best day of Leah's life, but instead, it turned into a bad memory filled with betrayal, hurt, and anger. And having the unfortunate knowledge of black magic has done more harm to her. Her inner wolf is dying as a result of the spells she practiced and only the presence of her true mate can revive it, but there is no mate. So, when Leah helps a stranger and becomes a secret substitute mate to the cold cruel Rogue Alpha, Damian, she finds out he is who she has always needed. But her secrets both past and present are threatening to rip this newfound happiness from her. Will she let it?
View MoreLeah POV Everything seemed to happen so fast. I saw my father claw at Thomas’s chest and I saw a very angry Damian on top of him. “Damian!” I yelled and tried to run to him to stop him but I was too late. He tore out Thomas’ throat. It was so deep that his bone was visible and I watched as he bled out, leaving me scared out of my senses. It felt like everything happened only yesterday but it’s been three months now.Damian professed his love to me once again, Lucia left without a trace, and Evelyn, Connor, and I finally went back to being friends. I apologized to Connor and he also apologized for seeing all that Steph did and keeping quiet about it.Today was a day to celebrate. I had on my head a crown made with beautiful wild flowers and my dress was very beautiful as well.There was going to be another mating ceremony, my first real mating ceremony as Leah Grey Ortega who would now become Luna Leah Ortega Leroy; The Luna of the Silverback pack, which began to progress again aft
Thomas POV My guards, both betas and omegas were already prepared for the war. All I needed was to get Alpha Elijah’s full support so we could finally take Damian down, and then I'd end the King's life as well.There was no time for sentiments. All that mattered to me was to end all this soon. I stepped outside. Damian and Anne have been away since yesterday already. Well, I didn't care. Nothing would change. Stephanie told me she had taken care of Anne, so there was no need to worry. I realized after a while that Lucia was not around. “Where could she have gone?” I thought but then later dismissed it. I went by my day doing every other thing and trying to get my head together. I was supposed to be in a meeting with the head of my werewolf troupes. Just then, the door to the room opened and Lucia walked in. “Where have you been?” I asked her. The sun had risen in the sky and was hot on all our skin.“You’re late,” I chastised.“I’m sorry, I just had somewhere to be,” She said
Leah POV My head hurt so much and my eyes stung from the light that penetrated the room. Everywhere ached so badly. I could still feel the stinging sensation on my cheeks as a result of the hard slaps the Alpha King landed on my face during his interrogation. I didn't blame him entirely though, he was just scared and was only acting like a father. The only one to be blamed was Thomas. He was the two-time conniving schemer that made all this happen.I winced as I tried to sit properly. I felt a hand on my shoulder. “It’s alright darling, you can go lie back down,” I looked sideways to see a female omega dressed in white.She was definitely one of those weird ones who stuck that sharp thing in my arm. I flinched from her touch. “An Alpha was here to see you earlier. You didn't wake up when you were supposed to but the moment he stepped in, you moved. But he has gone back outside now,” She added. “An Alpha?” I tried to think.Could it be Damian? Just then, the door burst open, and
Alpha Elijah POVI went back to my study and just lowered myself on the seat. My hands were shaking a lot. I had a secret I had kept for a long time and looking into her eyes now, it seemed like that secret was about to be exposed. I never thought that in my wildest dreams I’d ever be able to see her again or hear of her again but now, everything was about to change. John came into my study, “Alpha Elijah, why did you suddenly call for the doctors?” He asked. I looked at him not knowing what to say.He had stayed in the pack the longest and though there were times when we had our squabbles and all, I still thought very highly of him and he's been with me through the toughest of times. It was why I entrusted Anne to him and sent him off to the Silverback pack in case something were to happen to her because of Damian’s reputation. “She might be the child I've been looking for all these while,” I said to him. The look on his face said it all. He was so shocked. “That can’t be. We
Leah POV When I woke up, my whole body hurt from being moved around a lot and my head was basically splitting. I tried to stand up and move but my hands and legs were chained.“Silver chains!” I exclaimed. It basically weakened a werewolf and left them defenseless. How was the Alpha able to get something like this unless he didn’t just mine lead alone? I thought.Looking around, it was so dark and the floor was so solid that its sharp rocky parts pierced my skin. I also felt very different. My wolf was more active which only meant one thing, I was back to being Leah.“Oh no!” I exclaimed. Just then I heard the screeching sounds of a gate being moved over a very hard floor. “Who is there?” I asked. Just then, two male wolves walked in. One of them wore a large flowing garment on his body and walked majestically. Alpha Elijah. There was also someone I knew next to him. “John the blacksmith.” My brows creased in confusion. I was not at the Silverback pack but at the Risenmoon
Stephanie POV I walked angrily and banged the door to his room. Damian was a lost cause now. Thomas was right, I should just punish them both. Damian would never again love me like he used to. He just said it himself and I would never forget it or forgive him. I decided to go for a run. As I walked out of the main gates, ready to sprint forward, my eyes caught the movement of something in the dark or rather, someone. The silhouette was running fast towards the gates. I felt anger course through me. It must be Leah. I ran towards her and then tackled her to the ground.“Please, don’t kill me,” She shouted.“What?” I couldn't understand that. Leah would have definitely fought back and why would she run back if she knew that her life was in danger? This couldn't be right. I was sitting over her, so I moved back and really looked her in the face. She looked like Anne, the daughter of Alpha Elijah but didn’t behave like Leah. “Who are you?” I asked her still sitting on top of her.
Damian POV“But Alpha Damian, how could you have let this happen to us? An imposter right under our noses and you have been having an affair with her!” One of the council of werewolf members shouted. My blood was hot with anger. They had no right to talk about her in that manner. She had been nothing but kind to them and if she had any ulterior motive, she wouldn't have stayed for as long as she stayed despite knowing the kind of danger she would be in once the truth came out about her real identity. “You have forgotten so easily everything she put in to make us what we are. We owe her some of our wealth because of her intricate designs on the gems that helped us make very good deals with neighboring territories,” I pointed out. “Those gems were stolen.” One spat. “But now, they have been recovered,” I threw at him. I watched Connor from the corner of my eyes. He was silent. He did not utter a word or say anything and it annoyed me so much. They all weren’t seeing things from my
Leah POV My heart was pounding heavily and my eyes were misty and blinded by the tears that were glistening in them. I heard those words from his mouth directly that the imposter must be killed. I had waited all these days for his return so that I could tell him the truth, but I was too late. I used my hands to cover the sobs that threatened to escape my mouth. I had to leave immediately because I knew that if I didn’t, then I would be caught and killed.The wolf criers all began to howl. It was a signal that a general meeting was to be held and every werewolf had to be available and present for the meeting. No one was excluded.“It would be dangerous if I attended the meeting because they would find out about me and have me killed.” I thought. I ran back to my room and packed only a few things. My potions, since the book was stolen, and a few of my clothes. Just two sets, then I packed my hair to a tight up-do and then I sneaked out of the room. While everyone would be busy and
Thomas POV “I have done what needs to be done,” Alpha Elijah said to me, a solemn expression on his face. “It’s all good, your majesty. It’s all for the best. War and death is the only way we can punish such a crime. He wants to usurp your power and you must not turn a blind eye to it,” I said. “Well, that is indeed true, but what now do I do about my daughter?” He asked.That was what worried him the most at the moment. Where his daughter Anne was and what could have happened to her? I could sense it. I also had a plan for that of course. I place my hands on his shoulder, “Do not worry about that now, it is a piece of cake. I promise to help you in this war and also to help return your daughter to you, safe and sound,” I promised him.He looked a bit relieved after my reassurances, but I knew he was definitely not going to sit still and wait for me to return his daughter to him. So I changed tactics. “You don't need to worry too much about anything except your daughter. You can
Leah Pov"Thomas, Leah!" The priest announced suddenly, and I quickly swallowed the shriek of joy that almost erupted from my mouth. I knew it! Had always known it. Thomas was my mate! I almost did a happy dance as I stepped out towards the priest for the moon goddess's blessings, expecting Thomas to follow me, but instead, all I heard were shocked murmurs. Confused, I glanced back, only to see Thomas step out, a blonde female's hand clasped in his. What the heck was going on? I looked on in confusion, till Thomas and the female came to stand next to me in front of the priest. I recognized the female. She was Lucia Welling, the beautiful and well-respected granddaughter of one of the powerful elders in Dark water pack. She had gotten mated last year, but her mate had died in a rival pack attack a day after their claiming. "Your Holiness," Thomas bowed slightly in respect. "This is my mate and the new Luna of Darkwater pack" He announced, wrapping an arm around Lucia's slight s
