Alexa

Two years ago…

I opened my eyes and saw the high white ceiling, the white walls, and the small bed. Ah, I must have been in the hospital. I recognized this room from how often I had been treated here since I was a child.

I raised both my hands, and they were back to normal. I forced myself to sit up. My finger clutched the hospital gown that had been put on me. I peeked through it. My brows furrowed, as there were no bruise marks at all. All the scars from training had disappeared.

The moonlight waned, reflecting from the gaps in the window. When I glanced at the clock, it was already three in the morning. No, it wasn’t a dream. It had been a week since my dad passed away, but I still couldn’t call on my wolf.

Why I couldn’t shift to my wolf's form, just like other kids? Why didn’t I remember any of it? My ritual must have miserably failed.

The door to the room opened, making a small cre

    AlexaI stood frozen as I watched Lorraine. She was furious with her lips pressed together. Her breath was heavy, and she focused on my reddened eyes.“I knew you were eavesdropping. Shocking, isn’t it?” She threw a document with a hospital discharge form at me.‘Oh wow, we’re screwed.’My lips opened and closed, searching for an excuse to say so she might forgive me. But in reality, no sentence could form to cover up what I had done.“How was it? You must have been laughing at me behind my back.”“No!” I defended myself.“Yes, you did. Isn’t that what you’ve always done?” She narrowed her eyes.“I never...” I shook my head.She scrutinized every corner of my face. Her jaw was still tight, as if holding back anger she couldn’t express. Then, her fingers lifted and twisted a few strands of hair at the side of my

    Alexa“You ignored me when I was dragged away by the debt collectors. You sent Harlow in to save me alone,” I grumbled.“Why? Were you afraid a single hair on your head would be harmed because of me?” My voice was quick, spoken in one breath.“It’s not like that, Alexa. Alpha Alastair’s defenses were tight. Only Harlow was skilled enough to find a hidden way into Blood Moon Pack territory and sneak in. All the guards would have sounded the alarm if they saw me,” Alpha Gabriel explained in a low voice.“What about yesterday? You spread a bounty across the entire land to capture me. Don’t deny it—I saw the announcement myself.” My index finger lifted in front of his face, stopping him just as he was about to open his mouth.“Alexa, honey, that’s because I’ve been looking for you for the past two years. The Moon Goddess told Mrs. Geeny that I would find you this week if I put in all my effort,” he gave yet another unreasonable excuse.“Don’t honey me! I’m not a bee,” I barked at him.“Fi

    AlexaMy heart sank upon hearing that threat. My eyes widened, and my breath hitched as I listened to how he planned to kill the people who meant so much to me.‘How dare he!’ Mythril growled in displeasure at my mind.“You can’t do that, Gabriel,” I said, emphasizing his name.I called him by his first name, without the honorific Alpha. Even if it was just a small gesture, I clung to the hope that he would see himself as my childhood friend again—rather than the cold-blooded killer disguised as the Alpha he becomes.I narrowed my eyes at him, but he didn’t flinch. His jaw was tense, and he glared back at me.“Yes, I can. I am the Alpha,” he said, stepping closer to me.Hearing his arrogant words, I scoffed. “If being an Alpha makes you this cruel, you should have failed the test back then.”My words popped his patience. In the next second, he gripped my throat. Without realizing it, I was backed against the window, my head pressing against the glass. My airway was blocked by his fing

    Harlow‘What?!’ Eldritch was shocked in sync with Alexa’s words through our mind link. ‘Have you gone mad?’Yeah, maybe I was insane. I told the only mate I found, the one I cherished, to accept another man’s proposal.I should have realized it earlier—our statuses were worlds apart. Alexa had always been rumored to become Luna since she was the only woman of pure alpha blood at the right age. Not to mention, everyone in the pack knew about the deep bond between Alexa and Gabriel since childhood.To me, she was off-limits. Even though my heart throb in pain, crushing the last fragment of my feelings, Alexa was his all along. Hell, Alexa even only noticed my existence when I helped her escape from Blood Moon’s prison. And that was only because Alpha Gabriel asked for my help.‘What do you mean, Harlow? Tell me it’s not true that you just told me to accept Gabriel.’ Even though Alexa’s roar echoed in my head, I remained silent. I swallowed, trying to moisten my throat, which turned dry

    HarlowI roared as I rose to my feet, ready to strike down those weak guards. My fists clenched, and I could have transformed into my Lycan form in an instant. Alpha Gabriel, however, merely shook his head. He clicked his tongue, unfazed by my presence.“I wouldn’t fight if I were you. I can order the guards to beat Jack instead. Mrs. Geeny and Alexa are also under my watch,” he said, tapping his temple.Yes, he had a special privilege as an Alpha to mind link with any pack member at will. Not long after, two more guards arrived and stood in front of Alexa’s cell. His way of asserting his dominance as alpha in this territory made me sick.My eyes darted to Alexa, who was also clenching her jaw in frustration. Alpha Gabriel and I locked gazes in an intense battle with our wolf auras. I could have overpowered him physically and even with my aura, but I once again remembered Jack, whose whereabouts were still unknown.I couldn’t sense him or hear his usual chatter from the next cell.

    AlexaI wanted to protect the people I loved. Even though that person abandoned me and insisted on protecting me in their own way, I would also protect them in any way I could. Including sacrificing myself to save them.When Gabriel ordered the guards to beat Harlow, I couldn’t bear it. Didn’t Harlow know it was breaking my heart? Even though I was sure his physical wounds would heal by tomorrow, I didn’t want him to be hurt.No one should hurt him anymore. He was my true mate.My hand clutched at my chest, trying to hold back the pain. Even Harlow openly refused to acknowledge the fact that we were mates. If that was what he wanted, I would not hesitate to grant his request last night.‘I can’t watch it anymore, Alexa.’ Mythril groaned as he watched Harlow endure the punches and kicks.“Stop, Alpha Gabriel. I will accept it,” my voice trembled.***Throughout the journey to my home, Gabriel occasionally talked to me, showing how happy he was that I would become Luna. I mumbled and ga

    Alexa“Nonsense! What treatment?” I groaned. My forehead creased after hearing the lawyer’s absurd statement.“She claimed she went back and forth to hospitals abroad because of bone and joint pain,” said Mr. Pascoe.“Plastic surgery, you mean? That woman wasn’t sick at all. How could you let her use up all the money?” I asked the man in a sharp tone.“I’m sorry, Alexa. She was your guardian, while you weren’t ready to take over your family’s wealth. According to our law, she had the right to hold that bank account for your needs and the heir’s needs.” Mr. Pascoe shook his head.“My needs? For Goddess’ sake! She sold me, Mr. Pascoe!”My breath came in ragged gasps. I felt like I was about to explode with frustration at the corrupt law so highly praised by the elders. A ridiculous law that made me a victim of Lady Gertrude’s greed.“She sold me to cover her debts so I wouldn’t meet you and claim my father’s inheritance. She had no right to a single cent of that money.” My body trembled

    Alexa“Tomorrow?” My forehead furrowed. “Yes, tomorrow. Is there a problem?” he asked with a low growl. I considered the things that could happen by tomorrow. Even though Mythril seemed quite enthusiastic about the idea. “Aren’t you rushing things? I haven’t even had the chance to sleep in this room again,” I said as my hand opened the three-door white wardrobe. The wardrobe was now filled with clothes I had never seen or worn before. They were smaller than my size, so I assumed they all actually belonged to Lorraine. Expensive dresses, thick warm sweaters, and bags in various colors seemed like props meant only to please the Alpha. There was nothing I could wear. “For what? Besides, if we get married, you won’t be staying here anymore,” Gabriel shrugged. “What about Harlow? And Jack?” I asked as I closed the wardrobe door.I examined my horrible appearance in the mirror. My hair tangled, dark spot of dirt, and oily face looked back at me with a scrunch on my nose. ‘Oh, my Godd

    AlexaHarlow’s eyes burned every inch of my skin. It was crazy because I should be wet with cold. Contrary to outward appearances, I was instead agitated by the heat that ignited the fire inside me.His hand grabbed my hand that was covering my chest. He pulled me with a gentle tug close to his body. Like invisible magic, I obeyed with small steps until I was now in his arms.“Is this real?” he asked as his thumb brushed my cheek.The scent of his body enveloped the surrounding air. Mint and pine, a scent I’d never forget. Mythril had now turned into a fiery energy that coursed through my veins with great anticipation.“What’s real?” I asked as I raised my head to him.“You. Us. Here, together with no barriers anymore. Free. It’s too good to be true.” Harlow frowned.There was a gleam of fear in his dark eyes. The sudden heavy rain in spring made me worry too. It was as if we could be separated again at any time. Somehow, I felt that there was something dark still stalking us. But I c

    AlexaIt took two days for Lorraine and Mrs. Gertrude to move. They left the Dawson family home and returned to the Oswald family home on the outskirts of the village. To avoid unwanted drama, the guards escorted them during their return.There was actually a slight sense of pity for them. In the past, when they acted arrogantly towards me, I hated them so much. But seeing them in such a miserable state now, I couldn’t help but feel sorry for them.‘Ugh, can’t you make up your mind?’ Mythril sounded displeased with the pity settling on my chest.‘I can’t help it. They look miserable. They said Mrs. Gertrude cried endlessly.’ I thought while gazing at the tip of the Dawson family home’s roof from my bedroom window in Gabriel’s house.‘At least they weren’t executed,’ Mythril snorted.On the third day, Mr. Pascoe and Harlow came to pick me up. I descended to the ground floor in an emerald green dress and a small bag of clothes. Gabriel was already waiting for me downstairs.“Are you rea

    Alexa“I, Alexa Dawson, from Silver Moon Pack, rejected you, Gabriel Scott. I hoped you found solace and peace upon you from Moon Goddess.” My hand squeezed Gabriel’s, which felt damp with sweat.As soon as I finished saying that, my heart pounded. As if my heart was about to burst out of my ribcage. My emotions were the same as when I jumped off a cliff. My chest burned like fire, spreading lava throughout my veins.Gabriel groaned like me. One of my hands clutched at my chest, while my fist pressed against it, hoping to lessen the pain.The veins on his neck and temples bulged. I didn’t know this could be physically dangerous for us. The pain made it difficult to breathe, as if I were drowning in a bottomless ocean.Tears streamed down my cheeks even though I tried to hold them back. Even Gabriel showed the same symptoms. We cried and howled. Zeev echoed a wave of pain that was met with the same energy from Mythril.Our two energies then displayed a silvery light so thin it was almo

    AlexaI sat beside Gabriel’s bed, lost in thought. The blonde man still had his eyelids closed, his breathing steady. Two days had passed since that cursed wedding day, yet he had not regained consciousness. The wound from Harlow’s attack had a severe impact on him.It was understandable, since Harlow had torn through a vital point in his neck. If Mrs. Geeny had been late to help with the regenerative ritual, Gabriel might have died. Fortunately, he survived enough to go to the hospital.I gazed out the window into the dark night. The night had grown late, and the time showed exactly eight in the evening. I had been here for thirty minutes, observing his unchanged condition. Regardless, my bond with him compelled me to ensure his safety, even if I was slightly reluctant.While Gabriel and Harlow’s case was being discussed, Mr. Pascoe took over as acting Alpha. Until the matter of succession settled and punishment decided, nothing was certain. Even my house had to wait for the elders’

    Romero“Alpha Romero, with all due respect, why were you so sure that all this was not a fabrication by two female witches?” asked Mr. Darius, still with his false bow.I reconsidered everything they had shown me during my time here. This Silver Moon Pack could be an unfriendly environment, especially for the Omegas. These elders—I didn’t know what authority they had. But judging by their behavior, they were merely old people who interfered too much in the governance.My eyelids closed as I recalled all the memories of that wolf-head necklace. A precious heirloom from my father, now completely gone after revealing the memories it saw in silence. The necklace, passed down from my grandfather to my father, was given to a woman named Diana instead of my mother.The story of a true mate who ran away from my father, driving him mad. It turned out that the woman was the sister of the elder in the Silver Moon Pack.Was that why the Moon Goddess had destined me to meet Alexa? This was a golde

    AlexaI was still watching the two young girls. Invisible, I saw everything that happened about the necklace. Everything related to the wolf-head pendant and Harlow unfolded one by one.“I know, I know. This is too much to ask, I know, but I don’t have a choice. I’m dying, Trudy.” Diana’s hands gripped Gertrude’s arms. “I don’t have time.” Diana’s tears fell, and she struggled to form words.“They banished me. My parents, they didn’t want anything from me or my son. They said I was a disgrace to them.” She sobbed.“Oh no, Diana. Maybe it was only temporary. They are respected nobles in the pack, and I had worked as their servant for five years. Not once did they ever hit me,” Gertrude tried to reassure her. “Besides, you are their blood relative. There’s no way they can abandon their child and grandchild.”“No, Trudy. This was real. They wouldn’t listen to me.” Diana lowered her tear-streaked face.“I need to save this child. I would do anything for him, but I’m dying, Trudy. Please,

    AlexaHarlow now stood beside me. He had replaced Lorraine, who had now sat back in her original seat. In his hand, a silver necklace with a wolf-head pendant reflected a soft light on his face. Harlow turned to me, seeking support.‘It’s okay, Harlow. Let’s do this.’ I nodded at him while voicing my conviction.He nodded in return. I looked at the brass cauldron. The silver water had been replaced with fresh liquid. The servants and Mrs. Geeny cleansed it back to its pure state.During the re-cleansing of the cauldron, people used the time to take a quick break. At least the reception food wasn’t wasted, and the guests ate until nothing was left.During the break, to avoid unpleasant remarks, I checked on Alpha Gabriel’s condition. He was still unconscious from the sedative. I didn’t know what would happen when he woke up, but he would be shocked.There was a slight feeling of pity for him. Of course, this mate bond couldn’t disappear until we performed the rejection ritual. After th

    AlexaI was still standing in the view of Lorraine’s memory. The memory fog made me experience firsthand what happened in the past as Lorraine. From the memory in October 2022, anyone affected by the memory fog would understand what Alpha Gabriel did to cheat in the alpha trial.Harlow became the victim. He would also be considered as an accomplice who helped Gabriel in the test. Yet, Harlow was not the only one who would be accused, but also the woman in front of me.“Do you hear me?” asked Mrs. Gertrude to Lorraine.“Sorry, Mama. What was that?” Lorraine asked Mrs. Gertrude.The woman groaned while rolling her eyes upward. “I said, have you given that cake to Beta Drake?”“Oh, not yet,” Lorraine replied, while tucking strands of her hair behind her ear. The next second, Lorraine picked up a transparent nail polish from the table. She ignored Mrs. Gertrude.“Why not

    AlexaEveryone in the ballroom shook their heads. Their voices sounded like the buzzing of a swarm of bees rather than the howling of wolves. No one believed Lorraine’s words.“Ms. Lorraine, if Alpha Gabriel cheated during the alpha trial, why did you stay silent even though you knew? You even worked in the secretariat office as the alpha’s assistant.” Mr. Pascoe asked Lorraine, his eyes widening.“He was still the best candidate for alpha.” Lorraine answered with difficulty, her voice hoarse.“Did I hear that correctly? It’s not up to you to decide. There’s a reason we determine the alpha through a series of trials.” Mr. Pascoe’s forehead furrowed. He showed his disapproval of Lorraine’s blind devotion displayed in public.“Now, after the duel challenge, Alpha Gabriel lost to his opponent in the final alpha trial.
