Lucas“SHE ESCAPED, ALPHA.”That’s what Beta Sebastian told me when he got back after sending off Iris back to Crescent Moon Pack. At first, I could not believe Sebastian. Iris will not escape from me, she loves me and she promised me that she’ll be back after she accomplished her mission. And that is to find evidence that she is an Alpha’s daughter.However, when I asked a spy to check on her in Cullen's mansion, I saw her kiss the older twin, Felix, her ex-boyfriend. Seeing it in a photo makes me so mad, I cannot believe that she will betray me. After all that I’ve done for her, she chose to be with that boy. Still, I didn’t believe that until I saw it myself. From afar, I saw her smiling at him. She looked so happy with him and it hurts seeing them like that. In the past two weeks, I cannot sleep well. I have to drink liquor just to sleep, however, every midnight, I wake up feeling lost. I missed her by my side, I missed being with her in the bed, I missed her kisses and our love.
“IT MIGHT BE a scam!” Sebastian said as he drove the car on our way to the Crescent Moon Pack.I know that there’s a possibility, but my instinct is telling me the opposite, that I should go there and rescue Iris.Never once did I suspect Sebastian. He's been my best friend since we were kids, and he's the only one I trust the most. I can tell everything about my life to Sebastian, about things I wouldn't even tell my sisters. That's how much I trust him. But after reading the text message I received, I'm not sure if I should still trust him."Iris didn't run away, right?" I asked.Right after my question, I immediately noticed Sebastian's hesitation. Even before he could answer, I already knew it. For a long time that Sebastian and I have been together, I know this kind of reaction from him. I felt that he's been hiding something from me these past few days, ever since Iris ran away just as he said, but I didn't pay attention to it. I thought he was just worried about me."Alpha... w
Iris I WAS SILENT as we drove back to the mansion. Felix sat beside me, but he didn't say a word, and I had no intention of speaking to him either. Felix was once my boyfriend, and during our relationship, I had always thought he was kind, unlike his brother Asher and his father, who had unpleasant personalities. But I was mistaken because everything Felix showed me seemed to not be true."Did you really love me, Felix?"I couldn't help but ask him as we neared the mansion."It's you I should be asking, Iris. Did you think you could fool me? I know you're just pretending that you still love me, however, I am such a fool to still hope I would see the spark in your eyes again, like when we were still together. But during the days we spent together, I didn’t feel your love for me anymore. Your feelings changed so quickly, what did Lucas do to you that you changed so fast?" he asked. “Was it because he was stronger than me?”“I really once love
LucasAs soon as I entered the mansion, I acted like a normal guard. Walking around the rooms to check if everything is fine. That was what I have been doing. I never thought that the mansion has a lot of rooms which I ended up roaming around like forever.When I saw that there was no surveillance camera in the area, I quickly hid and took my phone inside of my pocket to send a message to Sebastian. He should be the one who calls me because I might interrupt him in the middle of his conversation with the werewolf Alphas. After sending a message to him, I took an earbud to my right ear before I continued walking my way to the other rooms. I’ve already checked the rooms on the first and second floor. The third floor is suspicious because it has a lock. It seemed like they were hiding something inside. I can’t open it either because the lock used a special feature. Someone could only enter if it was scanned by the owner’s eyes. As I was trying to figure out how I would unlock it, I hea
IrisI HAVE BEEN locked up for two days now and Lucas hasn't come. Thinking that there’s a possibility that he didn’t receive the message or he doesn’t believe the message I sent him made me think of only one thing; my life ends here. I know that Felix won’t kill me because he loves me, but the fact that he will make me his Luna despite that I should be the Alpha instead is making me anxious. How am I going to get out of this mess? Was it my fault for trying to take back my stolen life?As I was sitting on the cold floor behind the cold bars, I heard the door unlocked again. Felix just got here earlier but he quickly left when he received a call. I thought it was just something important but my eyes widened when I saw who’s with him, it was Lucas.My heart skipped a beat just by seeing him. He looked like a mess. The dark circles around his eyes proved that he’s sleep deprived, that he’s stressed. It seemed like he only cut his hair for just a few days and his face looked so dull. I c
IrisEVERYTHING WENT BLACK. That’s the last thing I remembered before I slowly opened my eyes. At first, I was still dizzy and couldn’t understand what was happening around me but then when I noticed something, I finally focused and saw blood splattered everywhere! To my surprise, I quickly sat up on the ground and saw how messy my surroundings were! I was out of the cell, it was completely wrecked! The ground was full of blood then I saw a hand… as I looked at it carefully, my breathing hitch to see Ashton’s naked body full of blood and deep wound! It’s gruesome! I gasped and quickly crawled backwards as I covered my mouth with fear creeping into my chest. I cannot believe it!Did I do this?!“Yes, Iris. You did… this.” A cough made me look up and I saw Felix holding his stomach that had a deep wound. He coughed blood as he stared at me. It seemed like he was trying to heal himself!“What… What happened?” I snapped then I thought of someone. “What about Lucas? Where is he?”Felix
AFTER I CALMED down, Lucas helped me go out of that room and went downstairs. A maidservant approached me and wrapped me in a towel. That’s when I realized I was naked. Maybe my clothes were ripped when I shifted into my wolf earlier. “We should go back to our pack now,” Lucas said. That’s what I really wanted as well. However, as I looked around and saw that everyone was looking at me, I realized I couldn’t leave this pack knowing that the Alphas who stood in this pack were already dead. They need an explanation from all of this.“I have to stay, for now,” I answered.“Iris, you’re tired and you need to rest. I will ask someone else to take care of this pack—”“I did this, so I have to take care of this. Can you at least send someone to our house and pick up the blue book in my room?” “I’ve already sent someone there. Before I came here, I figured out what you said in your text message and sent someone to go there and find the evidence.” Lucas held my hands as he looked up at me.
AFTER I FRESHENED up and put on a new dress, Lucas and I decided to go out of my bedroom to check on what was happening. As I expected, everything is in chaos. Despite that Sebastian attended to some problem, I know it isn’t easy to fix this as everything happened so quickly.As soon as I finally stepped on the ground floor of the mansion, Sebastian approached us. He had this look in his face, he seemed so exhausted.“The Beta and the council of this pack wanted to see you,” Sebastian said. “And also, I brought the book. We found it in your house, specifically in your bedroom just as Alpha Lucas said.”I didn’t say anything to him, I just took the book and opened it to see the inside. To be sure, I checked every important detail to make sure that Sebastian isn’t going to ruin everything again.“I will come to the meeting room,” I answered.I would lie if I say I wasn’t nervous, fact was, my heart was pounding so fast. I’ve never been this nervous in my whole life. Yes, I’ve felt the s
I NEVER THOUGHT about the consequences of marrying an Alpha. I myself was an Alpha and I was also busy with everything around the pack but I never thought that our first week of being married would be this difficult. In the first seven days, we only got to spend only one night together on our honeymoon. The rest was all work for him, and it’s not nice. We planned to spend a week for ourselves before resuming our jobs but Lucas has to take care of something urgent. All I could do was to wait for him to get home…However, the honeymoon week is done and I have to go back to my pack and do my job.“Can’t you go back to your pack once Alpha Lucas gets home?” Rosita asked. She was currently preparing my breakfast this early because I had to go back to the Crescent Moon Pack and do my job as an Alpha. Van called me last night telling me that there are files I should sign by tomorrow.“I can’t. If he has a lot of things to do, I also have files filling up on my desk right now,” I answered.
AFTER LUCAS MADE me reach my peak, he held my hand and lifted me up, making me sit on the bed.“What are we going to do?” I asked.“Ready yourself, Iris,” he answered. His eyes were full of lust when he said that. Then he pecked another kiss on my lips before he knelt in front of me. I swallowed the lump in my throat when I realized what he wanted me to do. Right then, he unbuttoned his slacks and slowly unzipped it before he pushed it down together with his underwear. My mouth dropped upon seeing his huge c0ck in front of me. It isn’t my first time seeing it, but it is my first time that I will do this to him!He held his c0ck and slowly jerked it and the size seemed to double! He is now rock hard and is ready for me. The tip of it was a bit blushing and hard and I think that was the only thing I could put in my mouth.“Open your mouth, Iris,” he said.As I looked up at him, I saw his eyes sparkling in excitement. I shouldn’t disappoint him, so I moved towards it and just as he aske
WHILE THEY WERE getting me ready, I couldn't help but feel nervous. Who wouldn't be nervous in this kind of situation? I couldn't believe that all of this was happening today. I had no idea this would happen because, for the past six months, I had focused on my work as an Alpha to divert my attention. To avoid thinking about the situation between Lucas and me. It turns out, everything I did only helped him hide the surprise he was preparing for me!“You are nervous, Iris!” Taylor went to me after she was done dressing up while I’m still not done with my hair. Taylor is wearing a pink simple gown while her long wavy hair is down on her shoulders. Luckily she was just a girl and they only had to put on a light make-up on her baby face.“Who wouldn’t be nervous about this? Everything went so fast!” I answered, pouting my lips. “Alpha, please don’t move or your hair would be messy,” the hairdresser said.I pouted my lips even more, trying to avoid myself from moving so the hairdresser m
AS SOON AS I heard the news from Claudia, I quickly left the mansion and went to the Silver Moon Pack to check on him. I was so eager to get in there right away that I kept on asking the driver to drive faster. It has been six months since Lucas started fighting for that law to change and up until now, it hasn’t changed. He is the Alpha and I believe if he forces it, he will have the power to do something and change it. But then, it has been over half of a year and he still hasn't changed it! I couldn’t believe that the councils in their pack were so inconsiderate!The drive went fast just as I wanted it to happen. As the driver stopped in front of the castle, I quickly pushed the door open without waiting for the driver to open it for me. Everyone was surprised when I ascended the stairs quickly, even though they were stopping me, asking me to stop rushing or else I might trip and fall downstairs.“Alpha Iris! Stop rushing!” Claudia shouted behind me.“I need to see him right now!”
AFTER THE MAID ran away, I took the bouquet with me and went back inside of the office. I settled down the roses on the sofa before I sat beside it and read the card. Iris,I hope you like the roses. If it’s alright with you, can we talk again? I have important things to tell you.Love, Lucas.I bit my lower lip when I read the word ‘love’ at the end of his letter. Why did he say that word? Now I imagined him saying that! I rolled my eyes and instead of standing up to go outside, I took my phone and dialed his number. However, he’s not answering the call.For the third time that I am calling him, he’s still not answering so I ended up standing up and stomping my feet to go out and walk out of the mansion to get there. Because he wasn’t answering my calls, I had to ask the guards where he was. They said he was in the garden so I went there and saw him sitting on the bench while looking at the sky full of stars.The moon is crescent and bright while the breeze of the air makes the mome
EVER SINCE THAT Lucas left, I kept pacing back and forth inside of my office. I know I had a lot of work today as it was my first day and the pending job from the past Alphas was brought to me, but I really can’t stop overthinking.Hearing Lucas’ explanation about what happened made me think that Samantha spiked Lucas’ drink that night and I also believe that Lucas thought of that as well. I could see in his eyes that it is also what he was thinking however, he refused to say it out loud. The question I have been thinking since then was… does he acknowledge the fact that there must be foul play here? And if he did, then why is he not saying any word about it then?A knock on the door’s office made me stop from walking. As soon as I told him to come, the door opened and Van entered.“Alpha, how was your first day?” he asked. “Well, I never thought it was boring,” I answered. “You haven’t started yet?” He squinted his eyes as if he was suspecting me. And I know that I can’t deny it t
IrisI CLEARLY REMEMBERED that Lucas was the one who carried me from the garden towards my bedroom last night. I found comfort in his arms while he carried me to the point that I tucked him with me even after he laid me on the bed. All my anger towards him suddenly disappeared, all that I think was the fact that he was with me. That he was finally with me in the bed and I don’t want to let him go.Now that I woke up from last night, I was relieved that he wasn’t with me. That it was all just a dream because what am I going to do if I wake up that all of those were real?I sat on the bed as I massaged my temple. At least I don’t have a hangover… As soon as I stood up from the bed, a knock interrupted me. Thinking that it was just a maidservant or Van who’s just going to wake me up, I answered.“Come in.”The door opened and I was surprised who came in. My jaw dropped as soon as I laid my eyes on the man who entered. He was holding a tray with breakfast.“Good morning,” he greeted, the
Lucas“IF SHE TRULY trusts you, she will listen to you. It has been two weeks, I believe her anger subsides and you can explain it to her now,” Taylor said. “I believe she’ll understand you. Iris is an understanding woman.”Just like what Taylor said, it has been two weeks since everything was ruined just because of a single mistake. A mistake that I never thought I would make. I know that I won’t do that to any other woman, especially Samantha. But I couldn’t remember anything. Samantha told me that we did something, that we had sex that night but I don’t remember even kissing her. Something strange because when I woke up the next morning, Samantha and I were both naked on my bed. The councils wanted me to marry Samantha for what we’ve done, they are forcing me. That’s why I’m not coming out of my castle for two weeks now. I don’t want to see anyone from the council and pack elders. I’m still thinking.“Brother, I can’t stand Samantha lurking around the castle again. She acts like s
I DIDN’T KNOW how many times I sighed as I sipped on the wineglass I was holding. Even the hours passed by so quickly that I didn’t notice it was already six in the evening. The guests are starting to leave and I bid them goodbye, thanking them for attending the ceremony.When I thought everyone had already left, I was surprised to see my father… He lowered his head towards me when he noticed I was looking at him.“Father…” I called him.Although he isn’t my real father, I am used to calling him that way. Even though he didn’t treat me better, he’s still the one who raised me.“You can just call me, Henry. I know that it’s hard for you to call me that way even though we both know you are not my daughter,” he said. I nodded. “Yes. That’s true. Do you need anything?”“Nothing…” he answered. “I just want to apologize for what I did to you before. I know that you are a kind girl but I refused to acknowledge you. Simply because you are someone else’s daughter.”“Do you know that I'm Alpha
