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.

    "Fuck you!" I answered directly and stood. I had no plans on dealing with a madman. Got tired of all of them.I was trying to spend my time here. But this bastard came and ruined my mood and everything.The stranger burst into laughter without having a damn if people would look at him or not.“I-Im just kidding,” he replied, laughing.I glared at him, but he did not see it since he had the best day of his life teasing me. What was this bastard's deal? Was this some sort of prank? But I did not see any hidden cameras installed.Or was he looking for a hook-up? At this place? Wow. This bastard did not know how to choose a place for his next target. I sniffed the air.It was faint because of the other human's scent, but I could definitely smell that he was a male werewolf. And he looked strong and powerful despite the hoodie he was wearing which partly hid some of his face. Was he an alpha or a beta? But why did he approach me? Something was fishy here.What if instead of looking

    “Why are you here, Malik?” Zoe asked her so-called brother when Alpha Lennox did not answer. So, they had each other's back?Sweet.Alpha Lennox was still silent as if he did not want to commit a mistake. "Is that really a question, Zoe?" Malik retorted as if challenging his sibling.Gone was his playful aura which was replaced with a serious tone. Zoe folded her arms in front of her chest.She's so beautiful and sexy. I looked like a servant when I stood next to her. Looking at her awakened the insecurities I had been hiding for so long. “Oh, great. Do not tell me you stalk me, brother. That’s sick.”Malik lifted the hood covering his head and I could now see his face clearly.Damn. He sure was cute and looked nice. "Who stalks who? Don't say nonsense. We both know who stalks who.""Remember what we talked about earlier?"What did these two talk about?“I just looked at the car and saw this familiar woman and I followed her instead of wasting my time doing nothing inside the car.

  • UNLOVING THE ALPHA   35. We Just Talked

    Alpha Lennox looked at me in the eyes and saw I was not kidding. I will definitely leave him. Cheating in this sham marriage was my limit. That was non-negotiable.But does emotionally loving Zoe not cheating at all?I still had an ounce of self-respect. The only thing that was left was me. "Don't just look at me with those puppy dog eyes, because right now, you don't look like a puppy to me but a jerk. I want to slap you, right now, Lennox, but doing it will make us catch a lot of attention."He tried to touch me but slapped his hand away. He put his hands at his side. Bruises started to come out from his face, but it seemed like he was unaware of it. "That was what I was talking about earlier, love. We can talk about it later. This is not the right place.""Right place, huh? You will invite me inside your favorite restaurant and talk about it?" I hate how my eyes easily watered because of this asshole! "How could you, Lennox?! Don't you dare touch me or I will punch you in your

    “This was all your fault, Lennox,” I muttered while fastening my seatbelt. “If you did not talk to your Zoe that long, we would never be caught by Salvacion’s men,” I blamed.“Yes, yes. Everything is my fault, okay? I admit it. So, please stop replying to those words and let me focus on the road.” Still eyes on the road, Alpha Lennox answered, “Blaming me will not help anything at all, love. The damage has been done.”His face darkened. His eyes were full of concentration.I chewed on my bottom lip.My body was cold and it had nothing to do with the air-conditioned car. “At least be sorry about it!” I hissed. “What if they catch us? What if they will kill us? Oh, no. I haven’t even been given the chance to see my family again. If we die, imagine what will happen to Alpha John!”“I know, Keira. Be calm. Panicking will not help us. This is what I will assure you. No one will die tonight. I promise you.”I punched his shoulder. “If I die, I will bring you with me!” I growled. Alpha Len

    I froze when a twig snapped in a near distance.I whipped my head to the source and scanned my surroundings. Sniffing the air was futile. The strong smell of leaking gasoline mixed with the pollution messed with my sense of smell."Who's there?"I held my breath, trying to find the cause of the sound. Have you ever watched a movie in which stupid protagonists usually die because they had the guts to ask questions instead of running away the moment they realized something is not right? That was what I was doing right now.Stupid.“Who sent you to do this kind of evil thing?” I ordered my feet to move, but they would never move. At this moment, my feet were rooted to the ground."Come out from the shadows I dare you! Don’t be a coward."I felt someone’s eyes watching in my direction. But who was it? Stop acting like the protagonist and run, Keira. This is not something you can do on your own. "Doll?"I stilled and realized the voice was familiar. “Tate? Tate? Is that truly you?"A

    KEIRA: Upon hearing those words, hope blossomed in my heart. Alpha Lennox could be alive! And that's the thing that I must find out now! "Where is he?" I asked, my heart beating wildly against my ribcage. There were a lot of questions I wanted to ask but stopped myself. We would only be wasting a lot of time. The queries could wait, but seeing Alpha Lennox and checking if he was fine or not could not. I hope he is okay. The warrior looked at me with worry. "Luna. I did not want to get your hopes high. That could be another man. This place is also where salvage victims are thrown. It's too early to get your hopes high." I grit my teeth and wanted to punch the warrior talking to me. How could he be cruel? That little flicker of hope was what I was holding right now before I would snap. My lips pressed into a thin line. “Are you implying that Lennox is dead?” Seeing the trembling of my hands, Tate stepped in. "Doll, that's not what we are talking about." "No! All of you are s

  • UNLOVING THE ALPHA   39. Wake Up, Lennox!

    I bit my fingernails. Alpha John was looking for the two of us and if he found out that Alpha Lennox was brought to the hospital, he would be the second one to be hospitalized. He would hate me for all his remaining life and would blame me for everything. I was kind of expecting the blame thingy, but if his condition got worse because of that, I would much rather die than hurt him–emotionally.I slapped my forehead. A couple of times. But not that hard. Enough to inflict some pain. Idiot.It is my fault, to begin with! I should be the one in the bed unconscious! My life was meaningless compared to Alpha Lennox. A lot of people were depending on him while I? No one cared whether I was breathing or not. I was only fighting for myself. No one else. Tate grabbed my hand and stopped me. His expressions softened and muttered, “Doll. Stop hurting yourself. It’s not funny to look at.”“Tate.”“Shsss. I got you, okay? I won’t let anyone blame you for what occurred. Someone was behind this

  • UNLOVING THE ALPHA   40. He Changed His Mind

    As fast as my feet would carry me, I sprinted to Alpha Lennox's room while my heart beat wildly against my ribcage. The people were looking at me with confused expressions. Don’t care as long as I will be seeing Lennox!He's awake now! Lennox is awake!My heart jumped with joy as I grinned from ear to ear. Finally. All my tiredness went away. After all those sleepless nights of guarding him and taking care of him, I would be able to see him. From the outside, I could hear them laughing. Tate and the alpha. It was true.Lennox was back!My eyes watered.I thought we would lose him!I halted abruptly and nearly bumped into the wall. Luckily the guards stopped me before I could hurt myself. Uttering my thanks, I pulled myself together. Relax, Keira. Don’t get too excited.I wiped the tears from my forehead and controlled the fast beating of my heart. Must not show them that I was super duper excited. Alpha Lennox would think negatively about it and would detect I was hiding my feelin

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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."

    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

    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
