Chapter TwentyDasha's POVI don't know why I woke up in the middle of the night, I suddenly felt restless, whereas before I was always sound asleep.I went to the kitchen to get something to drink. But just as I was concentrating on sipping the water, I heard heavy voices interrupting each other.The door to Rachel's room was slightly open and it was clear that the sound was coming from her room, so I went to check and was about to close the door.I immediately opened my eyes, it hurt like hell. My chest felt like it had been hit by a sharp object, and even my body seemed to be frozen stiff, making it difficult to move."What are they doing?" I muttered to myself.It seemed that Alpha Edmon and Rachel were in heat. It was obvious how the girl was enjoying the treatment of Alpha Edmon who was on top of her body. I also clearly saw the two of them without any clothes on.Without realizing it, the glass I was holding broke and fell to the floor. This startled Rachel and Alpha Edmon, who
Alpha Edmon POVI squirmed and blinked on the bed, which felt soft and fluffy.Slowly, my eyes opened to a shocking sight. A girl was sleeping beside me, and I could see her bare shoulders. She also looked very tired."Rachel?" I muttered.Just to be sure, I took a closer look. Sure enough, it was Rachel - the girl who had gone out with me last night. Then why were we in the same bed?Wasn't my plan with her last night to have a quick dinner at a restaurant near my apartment?My eyes widened as I saw the blanket wrapped around her body lifted. I saw her body not covered with a single thread.The girl also began to writhe and slowly opened her eyes."Rachel, what happened?" I asked immediately. Of course, I was also very panicked.Her eyes looked at me, and she looked confused. Probably because she had just woken up, her consciousness hadn't fully regained either."Alpha Edmon, good morning, my dear!" she murmured in her typical waking voice.I realized that something was wrong with al
Dasha's POV"Why don't you listen to me, Dasha?" asked my mother."Really, I didn't do anything more than what Rachel accused me of, Mom!" I replied hoarsely and tearfully.Now, I felt like I was on trial. Mum seemed like an unwise judge, very different from the one I knew.She didn't want to hear what I had to say. Right, she must be defending her real daughter, Rachel."Then why did you secretly meet with Alpha Edmon, did you deliberately want to destroy your sister's marriage?" My mother explained again.I looked at my father, looking for a defense from him, who I knew was wiser than my mother."I have to finish my housework pile," Dad said as he left the room."Is that a sign that you don't trust me either?" I asked him. Walking towards the exit, Dad turned to me, "I think I have always believed in you or Rachel, but this time I am disappointed in you, Dasha."I immediately relaxed. No one in this house believed me."You're trying to twist the facts? You deliberately picked a fig
Alpha Edmon's POVAs Rachel's words replayed, I snorted in annoyance and anger, finally forcing me to think about it. I never thought that Rachel would go so far as to threaten me.On the phone, she threatened to make Dasha even more unseen and outcast. I could have defended her, but the risk to my upcoming wedding was too great."If you ever come to Dasha's defense again, I swear I'll kick her out of the Blue Diamond Pack completely!" That's what Rachel said when she contacted me.Although I was at a loss how to respond to all her threats. I could only give in for the time being.After all, Rachel and I were getting married in two days. I had to keep the situation under control and keep Dasha safe."Be patient, Edmon." I muttered to myself.Then, I exhaled slowly to neutralize this feeling of anger mixed with annoyance. Then I walked over to the bed and tried to think of something else that wouldn't give me a headache.However, as I lay on the bed, a plan came to me before my marriag
Dasha's POVAlpha Edmon's face was very close to mine when I opened my eyes. Our foreheads finally met, and our eyes stared at each other for a long time. I could feel the rush of his warm breath on my face, causing a strange buzzing in my body. Is this what they call a mate bond? I couldn't help the turmoil his gentle touch caused me, nor could Alpha Edmon, who seemed overwhelmed by the need to control the heat within him. I could tell from his almost closed eyes what Alpha Edmon wanted. So when Alpha Edmon's broad hand gently pulled at my neck to bring us closer, I looked up to meet his lips. At that moment, I surrender and close my eyes as Alpha Edmon begins to crush and wet those lips. The turmoil in my chest intensified as his wet lips met mine, and Alpha Edmon won the game. We clutched each other in silence to fulfil our desires. I closed my eyes, and so did Alpha Edmon. I felt like my body was floating as Alpha Edmon caressed me gently. However, a few moments later, he beg
Alpha Edmon's POV"Rules are rules!" snapped Alpha Felix.I looked down as the loud voice said something that made me realize something. I realized my mistake last night when I met Dasha without their agreement.I was now in Rachel's house, like in an interrogation in front of Alpha Felix and Luna Yelena.I heard that Dasha had been punished for being caught meeting me, including the discovery that she and I had made out. I could only look down because of my actions, Dasha had to accept the consequences.I heard Dasha was locked up in the House Pack prison for a week. The confinement was only a light punishment and a form of punishment that would have a deterrent effect.Of course, not only did Dasha receive the punishment, but I did. The Elder of the Nightfall Pack also reprimanded me when he heard about my mistake in meeting Dasha."The marriage will be hastened. Whether you like it or not, you have to marry Rachel tomorrow," the Elder of Nightfall Pack told me.Yes, this time, I ca
DASHA'S POVI still couldn't accept Edmon and Rachel's marriage. It had been two days since their wedding, and I was still behind bars with mixed feelings.I wondered what Edmon and Rachel's married life would be like. While behind bars, I thought about my time with Alpha Edmon last night.Since then, I realized that my feelings for Edmon were powerful. I missed the warmth of his touch. On the other hand, I had to admit I couldn't be with Edmon.The more I thought about it, the more I felt crushed. I couldn't be there for Edmon and Rachel's wedding. But I was also relieved I wouldn't have to witness their happiness."Dasha," someone's voice suddenly called out to me.I cornered and suddenly looked up at the person calling me. I was surprised to see Nicholas's arrival, who smiled at me."Nicholas?" I asked in a low voice.Nicholas was waiting outside the bars of the prison I was in. I watched as he waited for the pack of warriors to open the bars and allow Nicholas to step through."Wh
NICHOLAS' POV"Did you just visit Dasha at the pack prison?" I was surprised to hear this question from my father, Gerald, a Beta in the Blue Diamond Pack. I stopped my steps and stiffened where I was standing. A few seconds ago, I had just left the Pack Prison after visiting Dasha. I had secretly visited Dasha's prison cell. I deliberately sneaked around and took advantage of the moment when Beta Gerald, my father, didn't know of my existence. But I wonder how Beta Gerald could realize I had come to the pack prison not far from the house but underground. A moment ago, I confirmed that Beta Gerald had no idea. "Nicholas, answer my question," my father said again, scolding me. I closed my eyes in horror. I did not know how to answer my father. But soon, I looked back, trying not to make any gesture of lying. "I didn't visit Dasha in the dungeon, Dad," I lied. Beta Gerald approached me with a very intense look. After taking two steps before me, he stopped and looked at me for a
Dasha's POVI had asked for a normal burial for Nicho, but Beta Gerald asked for his son's body to be cremated instead, he wanted to keep Nicholas' ashes in his room."I'm sorry, Dasha. I hurt you once and it made Nicholas feel hurt too." Beta Gerald said to me after the ashes were scattered.I rubbed Beta Gerald's shoulder and smiled, "He was a very devoted and loving son to his parents. There's nothing wrong with wanting to do your best. Thanks to your upbringing, Nicholas has become like a brother and best friend to me.""Nicholas was never wrong to choose you, I should have realized that earlier and made his life happy. I didn't expect his life to be so short," Beta Gerald said, crying again. I tried to calm him down.I remembered the beautiful childhood with Nicholas, the adolescence and adulthood that became more memorable. His silly behavior and laughter will always remain in my mind. This time, I couldn't lean on his shoulder to relieve my tiredness and sadness.It was too pai
Dasha's POV"Dasha, open the door quickly!" My mother said in a quiet voice.I quickly opened the door and asked what had happened."Nicholas died in the living room of his house. He was lying on the floor foaming at the mouth. Someone poisoned him, Dasha." My mother said.I immediately dropped the cell phone I was holding on the floor. The joy of reading Alpha Edmon's message had instantly turned to sadness.Without thinking, I immediately ran to Nicholas' house. I wanted to make sure he was okay. I was so unwilling to lose him, he was half of my life even though he was not the partner I wanted.Sure enough, the moment I arrived at Nicholas' residence. Beta Gerald was crying hysterically and Nicho's body was being tended to by some healers. My body fainted, I hadn't even had a chance to thank him for his kindness all this time. Even last night, I seemed to be making a face at him. Perhaps last night was the last time I saw Nicholas smile happily. I couldn't stop myself from crying.
Dasha's POV The next day. After the drama that happened yesterday. Rachel finally received her father's punishment. She was exiled to a house of contemplation near the edge of a lake not far from the pack house.Meanwhile afterward the atmosphere returned to normal, the activities in the house pack went on as usual. However, I saw from my bedroom window that Mother was often sitting silently on the balcony of her room, I knew she was saddened by Rachel's behavior and certainly pitying.“Helen, do you think I should comfort mom right now?” I asked the wolf in me suddenly as I looked into the mirror.“I think so too, it could be time for you to earn your mother's trust back, Dasha.” “All right. But Helen, I want to ask you again. Do you think there is still a chance for me to get back together with Alpha Edmon?” I asked the wolf in me.“Didn't your Dad disagree, especially now that he hates and cut off cooperation with the Nightfall pack last night.”“But Helen, I'm basically free to
Rachel's POV "Alpha Edmon, I'm going to make you regret making me so painful and rejecting me!" I scolded the man who was no longer my husband.I groaned in pain in front of my parents and the members of the Blue Moon Pack. Including the one person who was probably happy to see my suffering this time, Dasha.The problem was that the man had just taken Dasha somewhere, but not long after, Dasha returned to my presence."How could you, Dasha. Are you happy enough to see my suffering?" I asked.Dasha just looked at me sharply, as if she now dared to defend herself."I felt sorry for you from the beginning. Because you should be happy with all the life in the Blue Moon Pack. I don't want us to be swapped, I apologize for the mistakes Victoria and Jacob, my parents made," Dasha said."You know that, but why don't you just let me be happy and enjoy my current life, huh?" I snapped at her."Honestly, Rachel. I don't care about the luxurious life in the Blue Moon Pack. What made me sick in t
Alpha Edmon's POVI smiled at Dasha, whose figure now looked braver and less weak.“You've always been the best in my eyes, Dasha.” I muttered to myself.Despite the fact that with everything that happened, I was really frantic when Rachel and Dasha were arguing with each other. Although I trusted Dasha, my heart was sure that she couldn't possibly have any ill intentions towards my household.I then made a final decision that I would indeed reject Rachel. Her mistake could no longer be tolerated. “I can't live with a broken woman,” I spoke to the wolf in me.I also took a deep breath, after silently listening to the arguments of the people before me right now.“Enough! There's nothing to argue about anymore. Because I believe in Dasha more,” I said out loud. It didn't matter what people thought of me for believing in her more than I believed in my own wife.What I say is what I believe. Rachel looked at me with an annoyed and disappointed look on her face, but I ignored her.“What i
Dasha's POV"Of course I have proof, you won't be able to keep evading and maintaining your lies, Rachel!" I said.I was trying to do everything I could to stop Rachel from winning her goal. She had been caught lying, but she was still doing all kinds of things to deny it. She was so smart and cunning, it took a lot to bring her down secretly.Don't let what I'm trying to do to show the truth be defeated by her cunning ways. I racked my brain, if Rachel could deny, I couldn't lose.Nicholas looked at me convinced. The next day, after last night, Father asked us all to pause the matter at hand and told us to rest and discuss it the next day."You should have let us unpack everything last night," I said to Nicholas."No Dasha, last night the situation and conditions escalated. It's better this way, so we have time to strategize how to unpack everything in the right way."I sighed and said, "What else am I going to use to bring Rachel down, Nicholas? She seems like a tough one," I asked
Rachel's POVI felt more and more desperate, I couldn't do anything anymore. I was also embarrassed to show my face in front of my family and my husband. It was all because of William. If I could go back in time, I would think twice before doing anything.I stared sadly at Alpha Edmon, who was beginning to disregard my existence here. Aside from the bed separation, Alpha Edmon also seemed disgusted when I was around him.I tried to approach Alpha Edmon, sitting under the carpet and looking down."Alpha Edmon, please... forgive me. I promise I won't make this mistake again. Speak up, Alpha Edmon, don't be silent," I said softly. I hadn't heard Alpha Edmon speak all day.He, who was about to drink, abandoned his intention and put the glass down rudely on the table out of annoyance."I told you, I don't believe a word you say anymore. Shut up before I make you speechless," Alpha Edmon snapped, grabbing my jaw and making me grimace in pain.When I felt the grip on my jaw, I rebelled and a
Rachel's POV"Damn it! So this is all true? You and that idiot are in a relationship?" Dad got angry again.William's explanation made Dad angry. I hadn't expected him to attack me either, how sneaky and what's the point?)"Cheater! How dare he play with me?" I muttered to myself, trying to control my anger."That's right, we're both having an affair, Rachel and I are buddies, and isn't it only natural that we're in heat?" replied William, deliberately making things worse.I walked over and slapped him hard in annoyance. What I had ordered did not match the explanation William had given."Why do you say that, William? Tell them the truth!" I snapped. Furious, he didn't keep his end of the bargain.William's lips formed a smirk, his eyes piercing with warning. "What do I have to explain? Isn't that what really happened, Rachel? You and I...""Dad, don't listen to him! She's lying!" I said, trying to defend myself.I grunted in annoyance, even more embarrassed in front of my family and
Rachel's POVNo doubt my parents were furious when they found out that their daughter had betrayed them. My father didn't even hesitate to use harsh words.Of course, I was surprised because it was the first time I saw my father lose control and even play with my hands. "You went too far, Rachel! You've embarrassed me in front of this pack, you know I'm very disappointed, even more disappointed than Da_," my father said, immediately stopping his words."Dasha, you mean? I know, you just see her for the kindness, not me." I said with Sarcasm.I knew he was going to say Dasha's name. Comparing me to her."I'm sorry, Dad, Mom. Please give me a chance to make up for all my mistakes," I begged.Alpha Felix snorted in annoyance and looked at me reluctantly as I begged for his forgiveness. "How are you going to break through? You've already betrayed an Alpha behind his back and you know the worst consequences, right?" He explained again.He seemed to have guessed that an Alpha would only g
