UNLOVING THE ALPHA 25
KEIRA There was no point in explaining. No matter what I say, Lennox would never see he was at fault last night. I heaved a sigh, looked away, and played with my hands. “Forget what I said, Lennox. Pretend it didn't happen.”"You're fond of walking out, are you? That is not something good to do, Keira. You'll get used to it."He was excellent in giving suggestions, yet cannot do it to himself. "Not your concern anymore, Lennox," I muttered under my breath. I must admit that taking a distance from him allowed me to think and pacify my anger momentarily. "Keira. Will you look at me when you talk? If you're my other person, I would punish you for that."Lennox hated it the most when the one whom he was talking to was not looking at him. "Keira."I felt his gaze lingering on me and gathered my courage to look at him. He stared at me for a long time and said, “This issue will not be settled if we continue evading this. If you continued avoiding me. Tell me how I hurt you, Keira beca

KEIRA“Keira? I hoped something good happened last night?” Alpha John asked again when Lennox and I could not answer right away. I felt my hands run cold.Good? The only good thing that happened was my going back to my room and being able to spend some time there. And clean, by the way.There was nothing good that happened. But then again, I cannot tell him that, right? But how could I tell the alpha that? He would be very disheartening and that was not something I should boast about.“You haven’t consummated our marriage? You will not give me a grandchild at that rate, son,” Alpha John said with a disappointed look. My breath hitched.‘Do not panic,’ Alpha Lennox said in my mind. Do not panic? I was starting to hyperventilate crying out loud!‘Alpha John will catch us. He will know we are lying from the beginning! Do you know what will happen next? He will die because of this!’‘Breathe, Keira.’‘How could you say that? I’m panicking!’‘Do not panic. If Dad will know…”“Is there

'What are you talking about, Lennox?' I asked the alpha through the mind link. Honeymoon? As if I would offer my body to someone who cannot even forget his ex-girlfriend even for a moment. 'You will not help at all. Bringing empty words will only make the old man cling to our words. You are creating more sins.''Dad will not stop unless we give him what he wants. Until he hears what he wants.'I stared at him with a horrified look. 'Shit. I never told you I will be giving you a child. That is not part of our plan, alright? Sex is not part of our agreement.'I may have loved him, but there was no way I would be giving my body to him.I stiffened beside him but was careful not to show it right away. Alpha John was looking at us. Observing us. A single mistake and he would know we were lying straight to him. I did not know what kind of plan was running through the alpha's mind, but he suddenly snaked his arms around my waist, bringing me closer to his body.I felt him sniffing on my ha

Alpha Lennox and I hurriedly went to the packhouse’s garage while the man continued muttering something incoherent. “Instead of talking to yourself, why don’t you share it with me?” I stated when I got tired of his mumbling.My eyes went wide at the display of luxury. Different expensive cars totaled almost fifteen cars. A few years ago, the pack had only five cars and I was also the one who was cleaning them.“Who owned all of these?” I asked the alpha.“Some of them are my babies. Some were the beta and the others were from the pack members. It’s not only mine. Dad was always displeased when I bought a car saying I still had one with me. Functional one.”“Oh. These are all beautiful.” I wished I owned even one. Then, I could go to whatever places I wanted. “I know. They are my babies.”“Who is cleaning them?”“Me sometimes. Sometimes the omega.”“They must be scared of scratching your car. Did you give them punishment if they committed a mistake of dirtying your babies?”The alph

"I might be seeing Zoe. I need to see her. I have to see her. Is that…okay with you?" Alpha Lennox asked, hesitating. His brows formed a straight line. “Keira. If you are not comfortable with you, I can…” he said, trailing off.“You will what?”“I can postpone it. I am not that kind of asshole.”I let out a nervous laugh. “You are seriously asking for my opinion.”“Yes.”“Why?”He shrugged and turned left. “I thought you would be affected.”“Why would I be affected if you will see Zoe? I…don’t love you. I don’t like you at all.”I should tell myself those words over and over again until my heart will finally listen.“I know and I am thankful. I’m forever indebted to you and hurting you is the last thing I want to do during the duration of our agreement, Keira.”Oh, I see."You want to see her?”But you said we will be quick.His expression softened. "I want to see Zoe and talk to her. She's not responding anymore to my messages. I can't help but think she does not want me anymore.""

“Why are you being like this?” I asked when I could no longer keep the thoughts to myself. He was excellent at confusing my feelings. Sometimes, he was a jerk, but the next time, he was being kind to me. I loathed the emotions he was awakening without even trying. “W-why are you acting as if you are good?”Lennox’s brows furrowed. “What are you talking about?” he asked and rummaged through my belongings. “I did not say I am a saint, Keira. I am far from being good. Rejecting you. Not accepting you before is not the deed of a good man. I am far from being good.”I inhaled deeply.He was right. I was wrong. Always wrong. Alpha Lennox continued touching my things without asking my permission. It was fine with me. There was nothing expensive here.“What do you want, Keira?” he asked again when I did not answer anymore. “Time is running out. Someone might be spying on us. And that old man. Seeing him made my blood boil. You should learn how to identify good and evil people.”I played with

I was a fool. I knew. My level of foolishness was at the highest level. I mean who in their right mind would go with someone knowing you will be hurt in the end? The fool was me."So…am I allowed to go with you?"I had no idea how I gathered the courage to ask him that imagining the thought of seeing the two of them while laughing was like a stab in my chest. “I…don't think that’s a good idea, Keira.”Hope bloomed in my chest.Was he considering my feelings now? What if there was a chance between us? That I did not have to unlove him? That I will be free from loving him? "W-why? Is that because—""Keira," he muttered instead. Tell me you don't want to hurt me. That you also value my feelings and this fake marriage.Or maybe…“Why? Are you scared Zoe will get ideas?” Alpha Lennox exhaled. “I am scared of her reaction.”You know the feeling that you finally hoped that something good will happen, but then reality slapped you hard? That was what I felt right now. I clenched my fist.

Alpha Lennox’s brows furrowed. “Why are you laughing? Is there something wrong with what I say?” “You’re seriously giving me away to some random people I barely know?” I retorted, drying up the tears on my tears on the corner of my eyes. “You really wanted to ditch me that fast? In a hurry?”“Love. That’s not what I want. It’s just that…maybe you want to meet other people whom you want to spend the rest of your life with? That is only a suggestion, love.”It's you who I wanted to spend the rest of my life with, Lennox. No other men.I heaved a sigh and showed him a forced smile. “No, I am good. I don’t need men in my life. Do I look desperate to you to have a husband?”"We are talking about bachelor billionaires, love. Maybe one of them will catch your attention. I personally know all of them. They are also alpha's and beta's from a strong pack."Why can't he push me towards him? It was him who I liked. So much."And now you think I am a gold digger. Is that the best thing you know a

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
