Chapter 20
The herb*Xavier drove into the huge moonstones castle and alighted from his car.The castle felt lonely to him all of a sudden, he felt like he was no longer complete. He had returned home but home was no longer home without Adriana."There you go missing her. I already told you to mark her but you didn't. It's your fault" Red said to him.
" Next week is not so far away" Xavier replied even when he knew that next week seemed so far away from him.
He longed for his birthday to arrive, he had never wanted his birthday so much.
*
Aunty Sarah was having a secret meeting with the other elders of the coven."The plan is going to start very soon, I want you all to lay low. Take control of everyone, make sure no one takes a rash decision or makes silly moves" Aunty Sarah said to them.
" Do you mean Adriana is a step closer to the moonstone?" An elder asked.
" Next week, Adriana would go the moonst
Chapter 21A fake mate?*A few days later"Today, we will leave for the moonstones town for the Alpha's birthday. I want you all to be totally composed, no form of trouble, be gentle there, do not reveal any weakness, and remember that the moonstones pack are stronger so do not get into a fight with them, okay?" The alpha of the Night Walker's pack asked."Okay!" Every other wolf chorused.Today was finally the day for Adriana, the day her revenge plan will eventually begin."Can you please think about something else apart from the revenge?" Whix asked." Something else? Such as what?""Such as the fact that you are going to be meeting our mate tonight and you have to dress up sexily so you can get marked!"" C'mon, he likes me this way"" Likes you this way? Go and get dressed up! Do you know how many sexy girls would be in the moonstones town? You want him to feel embarrassed walking with you?"" Oh...
Chapter 22Lucky? Not lucky!*"Father, how can you think of giving me a fake mate?!" Xavier asked, totally shocked."It might be the best thing to do," Stefan said and Xavier looked at him in surprise."You know about this too?" Xavier asked.He was surprised by this act but he knew that he didn't need any fake mate, he had his original mate."I don't want any fake mate from you, I will get my mate today and introduce her to you today!" He replied and walked out.*Alpha Collen shook his head, Xavier had to agree to his wishes, no matter what, he had to.This was for the good of the pack."I will try to talk to Xavier" Stefan said and walked out after Xavier.Alpha Collen admired Stefan, Stefan was ready to do anything for the success of the pack and although Xavier was too, Xavier always wanted to do things differently, Xavier was too soft-hearted.*Adriana ran out of the bus and walked around
Chapter 23I accept the fake mate*Xavier was beyond confused, he still had no idea what he had done wrong but he felt bad that he was the reason behind her tears.He had no idea how him being the alpha Xavier of the moonstones pack hurt her. Every girl wanted him so why was she not happy?!"A... Adriana, what are you saying?!" He asked, his voice getting raised in confusion."Xavier, I thought that we were compatible, I thought... I thought we could be together and have a good life but... But I was wrong, I have been wrong all along!!!" Tears continued to stream down her cheeks and Xavier wanted so desperately to wipe those tears off."Xavier, we... We are not compatible" she said." Wh... What do you mean? You just can't tell me you don't want me anymore!" Xavier replied, tears gradually clouding his own eyes too.This was starting to become real, he so much wanted this to be a birthday prank but it didn't seem like that
Chapter 24Heartbreak*"You accept her?" Alpha Collen asked. He was definitely shocked at the positive response from his son whom he was thinking it was going to be hard for them to convince but here he was gladly accepting."Yes, it is for the success of the pack, I accept her," he affirmed but Alpha Collen knew the success of the pack wasn't just the reason for him to accept her.There was more, but he couldn't get his fingers on what it was."Where is the fake mate?" Xavier asked." I think you should know her, Emilia from the Snowpack," Stefan replied and Xavier almost retracted his earlier words.Emilia was the most clingy and obsessive girl he knew. Xavier knew just how many girls Emilia had bullied and beaten up because they admired him in front of her.Getting Emilia as a mate for him was probably not the best but what could he do? This was his way of getting back Adriana and for her, he could cope with any being.
Chapter 25Stay back at the moonstones?*"Xavier" Emilia called with a weird, cheeky smile and walked up to Xavier seductively."Emilia, cut this off," Xavier said, totally ignoring her advances."But I am now your mate" she pouted in a way that Xavier didn't find cute at all."Fake mate" he corrected."But that's not what others think," she said and tried to sit on his lap but Xavier pushed her to the bed."Listen, Emilia, you know very well that all this is fake. So kindly, respect yourself"Xavier walked out of the room, annoyed by Emilia. This was the reason he never wanted her as his fake mate, she was too annoying."Xavier, are you going to do nothing about our mate?" Red asked as Xavier approached the pool."Red, you know that I love her, and whatever I love, I won't let go easily, I will win her back"" You think making her jealous would work?" Red questioned, a hinge of doubt in his voice.
Chapter 26Making her jealous*Adriana stared blankly at nothing while different thoughts ran through her mind.She didn't want to see Xavier every day but she had to stay at moonstones town."I will stay back" she decided.She could avoid him at work and plan out how to get the moonstone."Really? That means we will be leaving without you?" Jeremy asked, his tone slightly sad."Of course, don't miss me too much" Adriana replied to him and he hugged her."I will miss you bestie""I might miss you too" Adriana replied and Jeremy pulled back from the hug."Might? You are so unloyal!""Surely, I will miss you and Laura so much but this is a golden deal. I bet the pay is going to be high"" Of course, I wonder why I wasn't picked, I am also strong" Jeremy huffed." But I am stronger"" You wish"They heard the sound of the car and Jeremy knew it was time for him to go."Keep
Chapter 27Making her jealous 2*Adriana felt her heart sink at the sight, then she felt her blood boil. She noticed what Emilia was wearing and she was pretty sure that Emilia had seduced him.Adriana frowned deeply and walked off into the kitchen, she wanted to believe that she had sorted out her feelings and that could only be true if she didn't wish she was the one being kissed by Xavier."Focus on the task at hand" she mumbled to herself and walked back to her lodge.*Xavier broke the kiss as soon as Adriana was gone and wiped his lips several but that single act was enough to encourage Emilia.Emilia smiled, touching her lips. He had just kissed her lips and that was a good sign for her, this meant that in a few weeks, Alpha Xavier would have fallen deeply for her.Emilia giggled and stood on her toes to try to kiss him again but Xavier pushed her away gently and walked off.Emilia looked on with pouted li
Chapter 28Are you jealous?*Adriana stared at the couple in front of her with fuelling anger towards them.They could act all lovely but why come into the company to act lovely and still they have to do it right in front of her."With all due respects boss, taking pictures is not part of my job" Adriana finally spoke up, her gaze on the floor."What insolence! Do you realize who you are refusing?! You are refusing Alpha Xavier and his mate!" Emilia blabbed at Adriana and Adriana so much wanted to tell Emilia that she very well knew that Emilia was a fake mate."I dare not refuse the high and honorable Alpha Xavier and his mate, the love of his life but this is...."Xavier could feel the jealousy in those words, the love of his life and he smirked inwardly."Didn't know making her jealous would be this easy Red"" Miss. Adriana. You are my personal assistant so definitely you are going to be breaking boundaries, this i
Chapter 104Finally a happy end*Xavier's eyes widened."I... I am pregnant with our child" Adriana's voice came again, cracking badly."Father, you would not dare to kill her" Xavier said, with more determination in his voice than ever. The fact that his baby was in her fueled his anger against his father.The sword poked Adriana harder and she began to bleed slightly. Without another thought, Xavier grabbed the silver bullet on the floor and a gun that laid carelessly Faraway."I swear father to whatsoever you believe in. I am going to shoot you if you hurt her" Xavier said and instead he laughed, yeah Alpha Collen just laughed."We both know you love your daddy and you would not try to harm me," Alpha Collen said and poked Adriana even harder earning a whimper from her.But then Alpha Collen was wrong, he could try to harm him and that was precisely what Xavier did. Setting apart the love he had for this evil man he had
Chapter 103Xavier, I am pregnant*"Nooooooo!!!!" Adriana screamed as Aunty Sarah's hands dropped."Aunty Sarah!!" She screamed, feeling a deep pain of loss. Xavier had never lost anyone to death before in his family, they were all with him but here she was, she had lost every single person she considered family to Alpha Collen."Aaaaaaaaargh!!" Adriana screamed out loud as her shape shifted into her wolf form, her wolf form seemed to have some protruding parts that made it seem like feathers were attached to her back.Adriana rushed over to Alpha Collen who was trying to pick up the sword and hit him away, she hit him off with her snout and punched hard on him, her four legs landing on his chest harshly making Alpha Collen groan.Adriana hit him away with her snout again and sent him into the walls, shattering the walls behind him as he crashed into them. Adriana was furious and even though Xavier screamed and screamed, begging her to l
Chapter 102Aunty Sarah!*"What? You are shocked, right? You never thought you would see this face, did you? Ugh?!" Adriana yelled and walked over to the wardrobe."You bastard witches! I thought I had taken all of you down!!" Alpha Collen yelled with venom in his voice."You wish!" Aunty Sarah groaned at him."A... Adriana" Xavier called but Adriana squeezed her face into a deep frown, she did not want to talk to him now or in the future, she had betrayed him and she was going to know where she belonged by staying apart from him."Back then everything was so perfect, we were all living together, there was not even a single fight but your lust for power, Collen, you did not want to go with the post of the beta and you used her for it, you used Adriana's mother, my own sister as an excuse!" Aunty Sarah said with bitterness in her voice."Do you know how much... Just how much it hurts to see everyone I was familiar with dying?! And
Chapter 101Daughter of Alpha CarlosAdriana watched the face of her enemy as he frantically stared at the sword in his hands."This is the real sword! And with it, I am going to send you to hell!" He yelled at her and Adriana sighed."Such a pitiful man" Adriana shook her head."Won't you at least want to know who this is before you start killing?" Adriana asked with a faux chuckle."Who are you?!" Alpha Collen yelled at her."Hey no yelling at me""Anyways I am your worst enemy, the one you thought dead, the one you would not love to see, you remember me now? Of course, you don't! You must have done such things to like a thousand people tan you can't remember which am I but do you know the difference between me and the others you have offended? The difference is that I revenge, I do not let go!" Adriana screamed at him."Is that why you came into my son's life?""Of course yes, what else could be the reason? I hat
Chapter 100Check out your sword*Adriana walked down the aisle, staring at Xavier who was smiling at her nonstop in happiness that was clearly written on his face while he waited for her to get to him.Xavier was glad that things were going to go well with his mate, he was already imaginings perfect life with her, she was going to tell him all about her secrets and then they were going to live happily ever after, he thought.Adriana tried her best to keep a smile on her face as she got to Xavier but the smile kept fading each time her mind wandered off. Xavier smiled nonstop at him and Adriana tried her best to return the smiles but it was pretty unsuccessful, Xavier raised a brow noticing her mood along with the fact that he could not feel any sort of happiness from her.He could feel her sadness, Adriana claimed to love him so why would she be unhappy about the marriage."Xavier" Adriana whispered, the priest had asked the questio
Chapter 99Time to leave*Adriana stood right in front of the woods, this was it, she was going to betray Xavier's trust in her.She remembered his words clearly when he had told her that he was trusting her to keep the moonstone safe and within the pack and she was sorry she could not adhere to his words, this was what the moonstone pack deserved for going against her family and the coven, this is what Alpha Collen deserved for killing her family.She walked into the woods and quickly found her way to the location of the moonstone. She passed through each lock with ease and finally she was standing before the moonstone.She gazed at it for a while and sighed.."I love you. I really do love you Xavier but still yet I have to do this to you, I have to betray your trust" Adriana mumbled and it seemed like moonstone shone even brighter for a split second.Adriana reached out for the moonstone and carried it gently in her hands, the stone
Chapter 98Moonstone, here I comeAdriana stealthily walked to the wall and cast the spell."Kistonopil" and in a millisecond, she was at the other side of the room, the mystery of the secret room was being solved.Adriana stared at the very old place she had found herself, who would have thought that Alpha Collen's beautiful room also had this very ugly side to it with perhaps very ugly secrets.Adriana's eyes scanned through the stairs and she seemed to wonder if they would at all be able to hold her weight. She moved onto the stairs and they really did a good job holding her up.As she journeyed through the stairs, she could scent out energy and power, this energy and power did not belong to a werewolf. No! Adriana took in the scent deeply and her eyes shot open."A witch!" She mumbled and increased her pace, getting done with the flight of stairs quickly.And there at the end of the stairs was an old woman, the witch Alpha Coll
Chapter 97The mystery behind the walls*Adriana and Laura finished cooking and both dished out the meals they had made on different trays, Adriana was going to give hers to her mate and Laura would also do the same.The both of them walked up the stairs with smiles on their faces as they stared at the food in their hands, but Adriana knew that her smile was fake again.Adriana pushed the door of Xavier's room open, holding the tray stable in the other hand."What are you guys doing?"Adriana asked, stepping into the room along with Laura."Nothing special and trust me your bestie is as boring as anything" Xavier groaned."Okay, okay. I am here now" Adriana said and brought her food over to Xavier while Laura walked over to Jeremy."Here, that's my food." Adriana said with a smile on her face as Xavier uncovered the food and took in the delicious aroma.Xavier picked up the spoon and was about to scoop some of the mea
Chapter 96Till the last blood in me dries up*Adriana and Laura stood still in the restroom, Adriana felt her head spin, this was not good news."You do not seem too happy" Laura noted out and she was just absolutely right, Adriana was pregnant with the one she was going to go down to war with, how in the world should that possibly be a thing of happiness for her."I... I..." She stuttered, not being able to say anything, she was dumbfounded, she was shocked, her eyes were now getting teary."Alpha Xavier loves you right? And you both are getting married tomorrow, the pregnancy should actually be a thing of joy" Laura said but there was no way Adriana could explain to her that this baby was definitely going to grow up without a father's love cause by the time she would give birth, Xavier would be far away from her, there was no way she would be able to explain to Laura that the baby might even die before she found a way to get rid of him.
