"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."
"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
••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
••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••"Alexandra, you wench! What the hell do you think you’re doing?"My mother's words are as harsh as the slap landed on my cheek."You can’t even clean a room properly? Look at this dirty water everywhere, you fool!" she hissed with disgust, but it's her who kicked the bucket of water accidentally, still I can't speak it out, she yanked my hair, "Guests will be arriving soon for your sister’s birthday week celebration, and you can’t manage this simple task? Useless!" I flinched in pain but didn't dare to make a sound, though the pain made my eyes fill with tears, still I kept my head down, focusing on the ground."Mom," The word slipped out before I could stop myself, but as soon as I said it, I knew it was a grave mistake. Another slap. Harder than earlier. "I told you never to call me that!" she pushed me hard enough making me fall on the floor. "You're not allowed to call me mom, you wretched girl. You will address me as Luna even if it is just two of us, do you
"Mate?" I uttered, the word filled with a mix of disbelief and confusion, is he my mate? Who is he?Before I could even respond, he fiercely took his hand back from me causing me to end up on the floor once again, a commotion began around us. Selene’s frustration ran mercilessly in disdain not bothering about my despair. "What kind of trouble have you caused now, Alexandra? Can't you stay out of trouble at least for one day?"My mother’s arrival isn't any less cruel than Selene's. She stormed in, with a furious face, "Look at the mess you’ve made! Who allowed this idiot here?" she sighed while fanning her face with her hand, "Is this how you present yourself in front of all the guests? How long are you planning on making a fool of our family? You, useless wench!" I wanted to disappear if possible. The weight of their words were unbearable. I tried to gather all the strength to stand, but their harsh words crushed me more further. I felt my heart would shatter with every angry word th
"Luna, Alexandra has been burning up a high temperature from last night. She’s sick! Please show mercy on her,"Clara stepped forward, blocking my mother’s path for the sake of me.A harsh slap landed on Clara's cheek for blocking my mother's way. The sound of the slap echoes through the room, "how dare you to block my way? If you dare to repeat it again you'll be whipped by a silver whip a thousand times." Clara stumbled back, her corner of the lip started bleeding already, but she didn't cry out. She just looked at me, with fear and helplessness in her eyes."Drag her to the extraction cellar immediately," my mother sighed, turning away from Clara as if she was nothing. Four maids held me roughly. I struggled, but they’re too strong for me to escape. Before I could even resist, I was dragged to the extraction cellar forcefully by those maids, "Luna, I can’t do this today, I'm really sick," I begged her with a trembling voice hoping she would show some mercy, "please Luna." But I'
I couldn't help but to step back out of fear hearing to his voice. Beta Karlos, the most notorious person stood there, with an intimidating aura almost wanting to kill me, "Why did you and Clara try to escape?" he demanded with a cold voice passing chills throughout my body.Clara and I exchanged a glance, but neither of us dared to speak, we just prepared to leave but never prepared an answer about what to say if we were caught. The truth of our plan is too dangerous to reveal, and our silence can be the only thing that can save us for the time being.Karlos face stiffened with anger as he became impatient by our silence. "So, you choose silence? Very well." He signalled for the guards, who held us forcefully following Karlos.We were dragged through to the dungeon where my mom is waiting, her face is masked with fury. Karlos reported our attempted escape. My mother’s eyes reddened in anger as if fire igniting in her eyes, the moment she slapped me across the face, the force of her s

••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
