RJ CrossHi, my lovely readers. I know this cost a lot of coins. My apologies *bows teary-eyed.* Shorter chapters in the next episodes. Please bear with me this time.

UNLOVING THE ALPHA 17. Will You Marry Me?
“Are you done talking about your wedding for tomorrow?” Alpha John continued when Lennox and I could not respond. “Are there problems? Tell me, and I will help you solve it. Son, do not cancel your wedding. I will be sad if you do that. Unless it is a valid excuse.”I gulped. Lennox and I shared a look, confused about how I will tell Alpha John the news—that I had no plans of marrying his son.I stiffened when I felt a slight push on my mind. Suddenly, the alpha’s voice rang in my mind. ‘If you can stomach breaking Father’s heart, do it,’ Lennox muttered, using our mind links. ‘Tell him you change your mind, Keira.’ I gasped. I never experienced being called through our links. I was always set aside. ‘Don’t make him wait.’ It was a plain statement. No threat. No urgency. All the werewolves in a pack were connected to their alphas. It was also a convenient way of communicating within the pack. I had no real explanation of how it worked. It just worked that way.“Well? Will nobody

Wait. Wait. Wait. What the heck was happening here? Why did he ask for my hand? This was fake. Everything was fake. It was not necessary to give me anything. I pulled my hand away, but Alpha Lennox won't let me. "I'm asking, Keira," he whispered softly. "This is for formality.""Are you okay, Alpha?" I asked. "I don't understand what you are doing right now." But it did make my heart beat wildly against my ribcage. I was elated at his gesture and it would be more memorable if this was all real. My toes curled under the blanket.Why did he have to make everything difficult for me to forget my feelings about him? If only.I glanced at the alpha and saw his cheeks go scarlet. "You don't have to ask everything I did. Just answer, okay?""You don't have to be angry about it. I am curious. You are not usually like this.""Again. For formality. Someone might ask us how I ask for your hand."I scratched my brow. "This is not romantic, Lennox." It was. Boy, it was. "You're not exerting any

Out of habit, I stepped back. But I realized what I had done. Now, Alpha John and the rest of the guests were looking at me with weird looks.I felt the world spin. My head felt light. 'What's horrifying with a kiss, Keira? It will only be a simple kiss. If you want, you can think it is the beta kissing you,' Alpha Lennox taunted. 'You badly wanted him, right?'What's horrifying? The mere fact that kissing him affected me is the reason for crying out loud! Of course, I would be expecting more from the alpha. That Alpha Lennox might love me in the end. That there might be a chance between us. 'I did not allow anyone to kiss me. Not even Tate. But if he is the only man in this world, I would be willing to kiss him.'''Really? It does not show. You were willing to dance in the strip club, yet you cannot kiss me? Keira. The others might think that something is wrong. They are waiting. Kiss me or I will be the one to kiss you. And when I do, I will make it the most memorable kiss of you

The alpha's eyes bulged and then anger marred his handsome face. He leaned in closer to me, our lips nearly touching each other. "You cannot back out now. I'm afraid you lost that option a moment ago. Remember, Keira. You are now my wife now. This is no longer a game. We already started and backing out is no longer available."“Seeing them only brought nothing but the unfortunate painful past.”"I know. But you must be strong.""I wanted to castigate them," I mumbled, as I imagined how I could punish them. The way I will punish Arturo Salvacion. My jaw clenched. "I want to hurt them to make them realize the hurtful things they did to me.""You can do that."I looked at him with disbelief. "I can? A-are you saying this because you don't want me to back out?"Alpha Lennox held both of my shoulders. "You are temporarily the Luna now. You can do anything you want. Is that enough to reassure you? Keira. Let's continue this pretense, okay? Father will have a heart attack if we suddenly te

"Y-you know? H-how did you find out?"Was I vocal about it through my actions? I was very careful about it for fear that Lennox would only mock me. How can I face him now as if nothing had happened? I was not planning on telling him anything, but let these feelings die.Alpha Lennox's face turned serious. "I know what? Are we thinking the same? Oh, are you saying it was about me saying I like you? That was a joke, Keira. Why would you like someone who rejected you a few years ago? Believe me. I am not worth it."You are worth it, I wanted to say but stopped myself.Yes. Why would I continue liking him? Only a fool would still want the person who hurt her. That dupe was none other than me. But my foolish heart would not listen to me. The alpha touched his forehead and thought for a second. "You like me?"I faked a horrified look. "What the fuck? I would never like a bastard like you, Alpha Lennox.""Bastard?""I mean…someone like you.""O-okay. I thought you seriously like me. That s

Behind the door, I heard Alpha Lennox calling my name, but he did not even open the door and chase me. Instead, he continued bossing me around, ordering me to go back and continue our conversation.Conversation my foot!Like hell as if I would go back. What for? He totally ruined everything. I thought I could sleep well after the long day, but no. He started acting like a jerk again!Damn him!My feet started to move on their own accord. Oh, God. Where to go now? The hall looked empty. Seemed like everyone already retired to their quarters after a long day while I? Here I still have the time to roam around. I cannot just change my mind, go back and sleep next to that bastard and pretend nothing had happened right? Heck, no!My pride won't accept that. I may be an ex-omega, but I still had some pride left. 'Come back here,' Alpha Lennox ordered, using our mind link. 'Keira. Dad might see you. They believed we were already on our honeymoon.'I felt my cheeks flash. 'Stop saying no

ALPHA LENNOXDid I fucking do the right thing? I asked my mind a couple of times. I was still in bed and I had been staring at the ceiling for almost five hours (perhaps), while silently waiting for Keira to come back to my room. No. Our room.Sharing my room with someone else aside from Zoe was…how do I say this? Uncomfortable. I hated it. But if Dad finds out Keira was sleeping in another room or me in the other room, he will bombard me with questions. Endless questions.So I had to share this room with her. Temporarily.I could do that. My gaze shifted to the door. When will she return? It's been three o'clock in the morning. Still no sign of her. 'Find her,' my beast urged. He was an enormous huge wolf. A dominant one who thought he could do whatever he wanted and thought I should always follow him. 'No. She knows how to step outside. She knows how to return.'That was my principle. It was not me who will always chase a woman. Another woman unless it was Zoe. 'Are you not

ALPHA LENNOXI shook my head as I looked around, looking for any traces of my beloved wife Keira. She really had no plans of returning to my room. I should respect her decisions, but then again, if Dad happened to look for her, which he usually does through a mind link, I did not know what I would tell him.Why are you causing problems at the beginning of our marriage, my dear little Keira? I have no time to play with you. Now, where will I start?The pack house was housing some of my men and their family, Dad, and some servants. The place was huge and my sense of smell would not be effective today. Already checked Dad’s room to check if Keira was there. Found she was not there. Which brought me to the hallway, specifically to the servant’s wing. I specifically told myself I won't be going after Keira. That I should sleep and if she does not return, that will be the time when I will be looking for her. My pride told me she was the one who left first, so she should have the initiati

KEIRA:I was taken aback by Lennox’s honesty. He rarely showed his emotions to me. And when he did, it was the most tender expression I witnessed.My heart fell for him.I was about to console him when hurried footsteps were heard.The back of my hair stood as if it could sense an enemy. "Alpha Lennox!" It was Alpha Bryan together with his daughter beside him. His eyes darted at our joined hands. "What is the meaning of this?"Lennox put me on his back, protecting me from Alpha Bryan's murderous look."It is what it is, Alpha Bryan."His eyes narrowed into thin slits. "Are you forgetting what we had agreed? The wedding will happen next week!""The wedding won't happen. My apologies, Carmela."The woman secretly sighed in relief without her father knowing. Wait. She did not like Lennox? Why?Do you have to know? Not all women liked an alpha like him. It's good for you, Keira. Less competition in yourself. You can focus on the problem at hand— Alpha Bryan. "You know what will happen
UNLOVING THE ALPHA LOVING THE LUNA: [Chapter 27]
KEIRA:I knew it would be difficult for Lennox to answer my call for help. So it was no longer a surprise when he said, “I cannot.”Right then, I realized he no longer cared about me. His words and actions no longer matched. I gave up. Letting go was much easier than clinging to him. ‘Okay. I understand your decision, Lennox.’Did I? I could not.But what choice did I have? I had to return my focus to Ace. My eyes went back to the fight when the crowd cheered. The fight had already begun and I didn't even notice it. It was only a few minutes of talking to Lennox but Ace was already losing. He was bloody and beaten to a pulp by his brother Kent. “You said you trained him!” I cried out.“I did, Miss Keira. But Kent is stronger than his brother. He had already trained since he was a child. Among the sons, Alpha Bryan had high regard for him,” he growled. I covered my mouth to stop the sob from escaping my mouth.I cannot watch Ace like this. He was only a boy who was forced to honor
UNLOVING THE ALPHA LOVING THE LUNA: [Chapter 26]
KEIRA:My heart was pounding loudly against my ribcage as I waited for the match to start. The rest of the batches had already started and winners were already declared. Except for Ace. His name wasn’t called yet. I squeezed my sweaty palm now and then. It felt like I was also part of the match. I did not know what I should be feeling right now.I wanted to stop the match while Ace was not yet in the arena. But how? That man had already made up his mind. We were in the oval-shaped arena and the crowd was already thick. It was a ten-minute break before the next match. Was Ace okay there? The guards did not allow us to see him for the last time. No matter how much we tried to change his mind, he would not escape. Until I gave up and turned my attention to looking for Lennox. But I failed to find him. Was it only me or he was evading my presence?Why? He was not yet prepared to face me? He looked like he was indeed guilty. Solomon tried to look for him, but he could not find him. O
UNLOVING THE ALPHA LOVING THE LUNA: [Chapter 25]
KEIRA:Ace automatically hides me on his back, protecting me from his father. He snarled at him as if he would fight the alpha if worse came to worst. Solomon was on high alert as if he would fight hand in hand with Ace. "Son!"Solomon was now beside me. "Are you two starting to fight against me?"The tension escalated, swallowing me whole. The air was so thick that breathing was hard. Peeping in front of me, I can verify that Ace was a photocopy of his father. Their eyes. Mouth. Nose. And everything looked alike. They could pass as twins if not for the fine lines on the alpha’s forehead and around his eyes. Aside from that, they looked like they were sewn in the same cloth. “You!" he started, pointing his hands at me. "How did that woman enter my territory?” the alpha growled, snarling. The two guards behind him shifted their weight from foot to foot. The blood on their faces drained while their knees trembled in fear. All of us will die here if nothing is done. "Solomon!""Yes
UNLOVING THE ALPHA LOVING THE LUNA: [Chapter 24]
KEIRA:The tension inside the room thickened. Ace's jealousy was like poison, making me gag. This was supposed to be a normal reunion. But after those baseless allegations of coming here because of Lennox which I didn't even know he was here was low.Lennox will deal accordingly. Not now. I will find him later. And also his woman. I will ask him if he wants her or not. I wanted to ask him where I belonged in his heart. Did he still love me or not?“That’s so mature, Ace,” I commented. “Did I look like the only person that mattered to me was Lennox? You think lowly of me.”There was a slight sting in my chest. I thought Ace would be happy that we were trying our best to save him. But because of Lennox, everything was turning in the opposite direction. I badly wanted to ask him about Lennox. But asking it right now will only make things worse. That can wait. I felt Solomon's gaze burning a hole in my forehead as well as Ace's. He was silent. Maybe waiting for the right opportunity
UNLOVING THE ALPHA LOVING THE LUNA: [Chapter 23]
KEIRA:I think I will die of boredom. A few hours had already passed since Solomon left me. But he had not returned yet. I already asked the staff of the resort if they had seen him, but they shook their heads and said Solomon would return even if it would take him long hours to. It was not new, but they put their trust in the man and the man never failed them. First, it was Ace. Now, it was Solomon.I bit my fingernails. What if he was hit by a truck while he was in his wolf form? Or what if someone shot him a tranquilizer thinking he was some wild beast?Now, I was already worried for two people. I paced back and forth, barefoot. I stayed at the swimming pool area, hoping the water would clear my mind at the moment, but it did not. The pacing did not help free my mind from worrying about the two. Damn it.I felt hopeless and felt like I was a damsel in distress waiting for her knight-in-shining armor.I glanced at the clock on one of the cottages.Past six o’clock in the even

ACE:A backhanded slap with the alpha wearing his ring and bony hands was one of the worst punishments he could give. I felt his ring slicing my skin, sniffing the blood from it. My ears felt like it was ringing, after the alpha's slap. It was more humiliating because that's how he slapped his wife and mistresses. I shook off the feeling of dizziness. "I don't have a coward son! Don't you dare run with tails behind your legs, son. Do not bring any more disgrace in my name."Raw anger emerged like a roaring lion as I tasted the metallic taste of blood in my mouth. Spitting on the floor, and staring him in the eyes, I exclaimed, "Why don't you appoint your eldest son as the alpha? That's how it works, Dad. Aren't you even worried your son will die because of that match?"He pushed me off the wall and cornered me. Pointing his fingers on my chest, he whispered, "The weak should die. I don't feel any sorry if they die during the competition. As long as they did not cower in fear."
UNLOVING THE ALPHA LOVING THE LUNA: [Chapter 21]
ACE:My heart pounded like crazy. After a few years of evading this place, I was able to return to Blackriver Pack, the place where I was born. All the alpha's women gave birth here. It was one of the laws of the alpha to his pregnant women before he would sign the certificates signifying he was the father of the children. The pack were looking at me with a weird expression on their faces. Bastard or the bitch's child. The illegitimate child. The kept woman's child and a lot more to tell. The people became imaginative as I grew up. That was the name they called us. Without the alpha's knowing. My stomach knotted. My legs trembled, but I tried to act calm, especially with the guards beside me. They would laugh at me, thinking how could a powerful alpha like Alpha Bryan have a cowardly son. And then they would add, "It's because he is the son of the mistress. Illegitimate children are all weak. Why did the alpha acknowledge them?"In this pack, only the legal sons and daughters o
UNLOVING THE ALPHA LOVING THE LUNA: [Chapter 20]
KEIRA:The sun had already risen when I woke up. Rubbing my eyes, I looked at the clock on the bedside table. Ten o'clock in the morning. Damn.I overslept because I was too comfortable at this place. Maybe it was also because of the ambiance of the place and the sounds of the waves lulling me to sleep.My stomach growled. I need to eat. Ace. Where was that man?I looked for my shoes only to remember that I was barefooted when I checked who had entered my apartment.Checking if there were some spare slippers, I found them under the bed. Sprinting towards the door and looking for Ace, I found him on the beach, sitting on the sand facing the shore while sipping the juice of a coconut.Sensing my presence, he glanced over his shoulder and saw me, leaving the coconut on the sand, and sauntered towards me. "Hey. Did you sleep well? I asked someone to check if you already woke up, but the helper said you’re sleeping soundly."Surprisingly, I did. Maybe it was because I dreamed about L
