••ALEXANDRA POV••"We're not ready to reject you," David said, his tone firm yet unreadable, but his voice brought me back to my senses.Damien nodded, agreeing with his brother, "He is right, we have no intentions of rejecting you, atleast we aren't as foolish as your ex-mate who rejected you." "We respect the moon goddess blessings," Dylan muttered joining his two brothers.I stared at them with a surprised face, and my head started spinning because of their words, what exactly they meant by not wanting to reject me? Do they have feelings for me? No...no, it's not possible, what am I even thinking?"At the same time, we can’t accept you as our mate," Damien finished with a cool voice giving a clarity.I couldn't understand what exactly they meant by? I can't come to the conclusion whether they're confused or I'm the one who is confused, one second they refuse to reject me, the next they refuse to accept me. So, what exactly am I supposed to do now?"We know you’re confused, but bef
••DAVID POV••"Come on, speak," Damien growled being impatient because of her calmness, his hand locked tightly around her throat as if he wanted to choke her to death. Alexa’s body trembled in fear, she is so fragile that I feared what might happen if he tightened his grip even slightly."Brother," I called softly, trying to calm him down, as I don't want him to scare her.With a sharp exhale, he released her with force, she stumbled back in my arms, Damien glanced at her with a smirk, "a woman who is so eager to run away from us, do you think we can believe you after knowing your intentions?"I know he is just trying to test her, that's why I was calm, because none of us have intentions of letting her go.As he walked away, getting up from the bed, she ran behind him with that weak body, "My Lord!" I laughed at her clumsiness, she couldn't even walk properly, and about to get tripped, but Dylan is quick enough to hold her, "you'll break all your bones if you keep running like this
••DAMIEN POV••"Did you say, next plan?" I smirked, shrugging casually. "Who needs a plan? Let's see where things take us."David and Dylan exchanged uneasy glances, clearly not thrilled by my unpredictable approach, but they knew apart from following me they can't do anything as I didn't make it clear about my next step.Looking at them signalling each other to talk with me, I smiled inwardly and ignored them, and went straight towards Alpha Kelvin's chambers. Reluctantly, they came right behind me, and the guards, sensing our presence, stepped aside to let us through without a word.As expected, Kelvin greeted us with his usual, cunning charm, as if he isn't aware of anything happening within his place, "Hail, the Alpha Kings," he said, with an overly pleasant tone.I raised an eyebrow, noticing the frown on his face, "Seems like you’re not in a good mood today, Alpha Kelvin, is everything okay?" I made sure my voice to be calm yet mocking about his situation, the forced smile he ga
••DAMIEN POV••"My Lord, I... I don’t understand what you’re trying to say," Kelvin stammered, his voice unsteady as David’s trick clearly set him up in trap, "if not this daughter of mine, who must've saved you?" This man, does he even remember about having another daughter? What exactly did she do to deserve this kind of treatment from her own family?I glanced at Dylan who is clearly infuriated, "Bring her here."Dylan raised a brow, pointing to himself, "Me?" I nodded with a smile, "you only."With a reluctant sigh, he stood and walked out of the room, this brat! He is an Alpha king, no longer the kid we pampered still he forgets everything and acts childish as if he couldn't come out of that phase.I shifted my attention back to Kelvin, offering a slight smile, gesturing him and his family to be seated, "Don’t worry, Alpha Kelvin, looks like you're clearly in a stressful situation because of all the events, even if you confused, I'll make sure to clear everything now for you."
••ALEXANDRA POV••"Why don’t you give her to us?" Damien’s voice was sharp and commanding cutting through the silence. My heart almost skipped a beat hearing to him. Until now, I wasn’t sure how they planned to take me away from this hell, but his words sparked a small hope within me. Maybe, just maybe, they’d find a way to get me away from this place.Though it's just a wishful thinking, still I want to believe in them, I know they're not either good people or people with good intentions, they just want to use me, but anything is okay, as long as I can escape from this hell.The room fell into stunned silence because of Damien's words.My parents and Selene stared at him as if he’d just proposed something unthinkable or impossible. My father was the first to recover from the shock. "Give her to you?" he repeated with a voice full of disbelief.Damien nodded, gently patting on my head, which I quite liked and felt comforting, "Since you don’t care about her, treating her worse than a
••ALEXANDRA POV••"Come on, Alexa," David smiled, with a gentle yet commanding voice. "Say your answer, do you choose them or us?" I froze for a minute as I can feel my family’s piercing gazes are fixed on me, their expressions a mixture of fury and anxiety as they're not sure what I'm going to say. They were expecting me to be a fool, and choose them even after all the cruelty they had done to me, but for the first time, I realized that I no longer have to go through all that again.The faint glimmer of hope in David’s eyes gave me courage to speak, my heart racing so hard, but I tried my best to keep my voice steady to deliver the answer I'm intended to. "I’ll go with you," I said, each word breaking a chain that had held me captive for so long in this so-called pack as a shadow to my twin sister.The three brothers looked satisfied while my family was extremely stunned by my answer."Alexandra!" My mother’s voice is sharper than a whip. "How dare you say that?"I flinched invol
••NO POV••"Of course," Damien said, wrapping his arm around Alexandra’s shoulder, giving her assurance that they'll not let her go no matter what happens, "once if I say she belongs to us, that means it's final, she belongs to us and none can take her away from us." His tone was light, but there was an unspoken threat in it, Kelvin frowned, crossing his arms. "I feel like you'll regret this decision of yours," he said, with a low yet sharp voice.David's gaze hardened, as he glanced at Kelvin, "If we're talking about regret, you might regret saying something like this to us," he warned without breaking the eyecontact with Kelvin.Dylan sighed heavily, pinching the bridge of his nose. "Enough with this foolish talk. Let’s go, I'm tired already," he said, breaking the conversation, and holding Alexandra's hand, he pulled her away from there."I don't understand how many we have to go through because of you," Dylan became furious at Alexandra, looking at her flinching in fear, Dylan fe
••NO POV••"I'm leaving," Alexandra said firmly, pulling her hand away from Selene.Selene’s voice trembled with desperation. "If you leave, I'll die. You know that, don't you? Still, do you wanna leave? Do you want to see me dead?" Alexandra’s lips curved into a faint, yet bittersweet smile hearing to desperation Selene had just to live longer. "You knew if this continued, I’d die too, did you ever care about that?"Selene didn’t respond, her face stony and calm, as if Alexandra’s words held no weight.Taking a deep breath, Alexandra added coldly, "Then I don't care either, whether you live or die, it’s not my concern anymore.""You can't!" Selene snapped, her composure breaking, as she can't let Alexandra to leave. "You're allowed to live only to keep me alive, you can’t just walk away! Your life or death, it depends on me, you're born for this, did you forget?" Alexandra’s eyes darkened, and she shoved Selene back. "Wake up from your delusions Selene, I wasn’t born to be your lif
••ALEXANDRA POV••"You've the same eyes as your mother, you've to live well," He said looking in my direction.My blood turned to ice in surprise.I turned my head slightly, my voice barely a whisper. "Who is this man? What does he meant by I've my mother's eyes? I don't look like any of them." My father turned around, his sharp eyes scanning the room, my heart pressed against my ribs as I hid behind the wall, praying he wouldn’t see me."Who are you talking to?" My father demanded.The man chuckled weakly, his voice dripping with bitterness. "No one, just ghosts, since heaven never heard my prayers, I'm happy that at least the ghost heard my prayers Kelvin, the past and your sins going to hunt you, the so-called Alpha position, you conspired a lot to get that, it'll be never yours!" My father kicked the man, "He finally went crazy, lock him up and starve him, but don't let him die." Taking this opportunity, I rushed away from there, making sure my footsteps are silent not disturbi
••ALEXANDRA POV••"This feels so good," I can't help but grin sitting on the soft mattress, finally they agreed with all my demands, I got the best room to stay and serving good food, after what happened happened with Faria, no maids dared to look down on me or hurt me.The cool evening air brushed against my skin as I stepped into the beautiful garden. I adjusted the shawl draped over my shoulders, the fabric trying to shield me from the cold chills.It feels so refreshing and relaxing to step outside after being confined within walls, but the weight of Selene’s presence irritated me.I glanced back at the guard staring at me like a shadow. Silent and stern, Just as Selene had said.Her words from earlier echoed in my mind, "Don't get too comfortable, Alexandra, he is here to make sure you behave well, and don't even think about going near the northern path, you know what'll happen if Theon or dad sees you, so just be here nearby." She had stood there observing carefully, her ha
"You people?" Clara even in that pain recognised those people, they're none other than the guards who torments her in the cell.Her fear and words, made one of them to laugh mockingly, "Yes, it's us only, from the day you've entered the palace, we laid our eyes on you, during that torment, we thought you'll give yourself to us in return, but instead that little bitch helped you to escape, because of you, we are punished by the Alpha Kings, now let's see who'll come to save you." Clara crawled back on the ground, "If Alpha kings get to know these, you will be dead," rather than being scared of them, instead they laughed, "Alpha kings? Do you even know about their truth? They're nothing but puppets under our Lord, sooner or later, they'll die!""What the!" Clara was taken aback after hearing to their words, yanking her hair, a man asked, "Do you know why your friend ran away?" Clara flinched in fear and pain, the man said, "She is pregnant, and Alpha Kings doesn't want that child, in
"How ca...can you be so heartless?" Faria shouted, Alexandra rolled her eyes bending down to see Faria in closeup, "Heartless, and ruthless, these are something I learned from you and your master, so stop acting as if you're innocent."Pushing her aside, Alexandra stood up, "if you're done here, just get lost from here." Faria stood from the ground but when she almost left the room, Alexandra stopped her, "Ahhh, one more thing." Faria turned around, Alexandra said, "I can't sleep on the ground even if it is for tonight, tell your Luna to prepare a good bed for me here." "A bed?" Faria repeated, Alexandra nodded, "Yes, a bed, don't tell me you're expecting me to sleep on the ground, are you?"Faria shook her head, "No...no, I'll immediately tell Luna about this," saying that Faria ran out of the room, Alexandra clapped her hands and laughed wholeheartedly, "Finally, I did it, I managed to do it, for years they threatened me and made me scared but look at them now, it's so amazing."
••NO POV••"You will not leave the estate grounds, you will not speak to anyone, you've to hide your face, and if you do anything such as giving a hint of truth to Theon or anyone else, you’ll regret it," Britney gave list of instructions Alexandra was supposed to follow if she wants the freedom she is looking for.Alexandra hearing to everything thought to herself, "Why would I even waste my time by hinting people about their fake pregnancy rumors? All I want is a single opportunity to leave this place." Alexandra let out a smug smile as she is happy that everything is going in a way she expected, "Of course I'll do just as you wanted, don't worry Luna, I'm not stupid enough to slip the truth out easily, I know how to keep my mouth shut, as long as I get what I want." Selene stared at her mother in disbelief. "You can’t be serious mom, you can't let her be out of this place, what if she uses this for her own advantage?" "Do you have any other alternatives?" Britney snapped at her
••NO POV••"This celebration is for princess Selene's pregnancy," the loud cheers and soft of him filled faintly through the grand halls of the pack house.Outside, the pack feasted and danced under the moonlight with joyous news of Selene's pregnancy.Inside, however, in the dimly corridors, near the secluded room, Selene paced back and forth, her delicate fingers trembling as they clutched a silver goblet of wine. Her elegant frock to show off her fabricated pregnancy with a fake bump, moved with each step of her.Her face, normally a mask of angelic and smile, was replaced with anxiety.From behind the locked door, Alexandra’s relentless banging continued. "Selene! Open this damn door, or I swear, I’ll scream loud enough for your precious husband to come running! If you dare to ignore me, I'll let the entire pack to hear my screams about your fake pregnancy." Selene froze, her heart almost jumped out of the chest, immediately she turned to Britney who was standing beside her, eve
••NO POV••The tension in the pack of Alpha Kings escalated to dangerous levels as Dylan, Damien and David tore through their territory just to search for Alexandra.The initial desperation to find Alexandra morphed into pure rage and their pack was feeling the effects. Guards, servants, even high ranking pack members were all subjected to relentless questioning and everything is related to Alexandra."Did you find her?" Dylan barked as he pushed a guard to the wall in rage. "You must have found something right, where is she?" Dylan yanked on the guard’s coat, causing him to stumble backwards. Sweat was pouring down his face and he stammered, "I s-swear my Lord I haven’t seen her! I don’t know anything! I'm still looking for her." Dylan dropped him to the ground. "You all are useless, you can't even a find little girl, what kind of wolves are you?" Damien, on the other hand, was scouring the training grounds, his eagle eyes darting all around him as he snapped orders at warriors.
••NO POV••"I know that you all are suspicious of me, but Alexa is my one and only best friend, even if there is a single chance to find her and bring her back, I'll do it, because she is someone so important to me," Clara cried hoping them to believe in her.Damien looked at Dylan who appeared doubtful, then they both turned towards David, who didn’t say anything for some time."You may go," David straightened himself. "However, if you think you can find her, all I can say is only one thing, if you were to leave now, it's better if you don’t come back without Alexa." Clara felt her heart drop and jump out on fear, but she nodded her head, "I understand my Lord, thank you for giving me this chance." Dylan’s gaze was relentless. "Don’t mistake this lenience of ours as trust only, no matter where you go, you'll be under our surveillance, if you dare to think about escaping, don't blame us for being cruel," he threatened her with a serious tone."I won’t escape, my Lord," Her voice did
••NO POV••"I know we are making this decision for the best reasons only," David said looking at Damien and Dylan, "But that baby solely doesn't belong to us, it belongs to her also." Dylan crossed his arms, "What are you trying to say David." "I think it's better if we talk to Alexa," David finally expressed his opinion, "She also has a right on that baby, why don't we explain it to her and listen to her before we make a decision about the termination of her pregnancy?" Damien spared a glance at David, "Do you even think that she would consider having a child with us? To her, we didn't brought her as a mate to make her our queen, so, I don't think she would even think of carrying our child." "All she want is freedom, she is so eager to leave us brother," Dylan said bitterly, "A woman who has no desire to live with us, why would she even want our child?" David shook his head, as no matter what they said, he still couldn't ready to accept it, "If it is anyone else, I would think t
