LUPE'S POV

"Yes!" Leah, my wolf answered with so much excitement.

I felt a mental connection to him instantly, my insides felt warm. A kind of comfort came over me just by seeing him. His face had a gentle, yet sharp edge to it. His eyes were deep brown, bringing to it a warmth that threatens to draw you in until you get lost in them. Dark, full eyebrows accentuated his face, lashes as long as that of a woman. His lips were full and dark pink in color. Unfamiliar sparks and an electric jolted me back to reality. My eyes widened as I saw that he was directly before me, and in fact, touched my head. The contact made me crave his touch more, the urge to lay in his thick arms for eternity, gripped me. 

My palm got clammy at how intense his gaze was on me. He leaned closer, "Hey, beauty." His deep, masculine voice met my ear. It was smooth as though he had nurtured the voice to make anyone drool over it.

"Hi." I mumbled lowly. I could barely recognize my own voice as it came out.

"I'm Beta Garrett." He said, and my silly wolf stirred again at his name. 

"Lupe…. I’m Lupe." I said, smiling uneasily. Suddenly conscious of what I wore or, if my smiling was awkward or, I wasn’t what he excepted because, I have heard of 

"You're really beautiful. Can I touch you?" He asked, his deep brown orbs melted into my blue ones.

"Yes." I muttered.

He grabbed my hands in his left hand, the other one stroking my cheek. Sparks ignited everywhere he touched. More of a constant reminder of the bond between us. The contact was the closest thing I've gotten from a male since my father died. 

"Lupe?" I snapped out of the reverie I was lost in with Garrett and looked back, attempting to take off my hand from Garrett but the growl that escaped his lips halted me.

It was my mother and Doctor Archer was beside her.

"Who is this?" A frown etched into her face as she looked at Garret in confusion before her eyes went down to our locked hands.

"Mom, meet my mate. He's Garret. Garrett, my mom." I answered excitedly.

A bright smile came up on her face, like she was anticipating the news. She looked even more happy than I do.

"You must be Beta Garrett, from Black Moon pack. I've waited so long for the day Lupe would meet her mate…. It fills my heart to see you both in love already." She exclaimed, smiling at him.

"Yes Ma'am. I arrived few minutes ago." He replied and mum clapped her hands in excitement. Her expression and actions mirrored that of an excited teenage girl whom her crush just complimented.

"I'll leave you two alone now. See you later, Garrett." She walked off with Doctor Archer who hadn't uttered a word since they reached, he only had a gentle smile on his face.

"How did she know I'm the Beta who was meant to come?" Garrett asked.

"She's Luna. She must have discussed it with the Alpha." I answered.

"That makes you the alpha's daughter then." He uttered excitedly.

"Yeah, somehow." I mumbled with a slight frown.

"Is there anywhere private we can go? People have been peeking from behind that big tree. I need a private spot with you." He said, gesturing towards the tree not too far from us and I nodded.

A place came to mind, I've never taken anyone there before, not even my best friend who knows everything about me. I only went there when needed to get away from everything and everyone.

"Of course. I know a place." I replied.

We walked towards the direction of the woods. His hand locked with mine in a firm grip. I led him to the concealed lake in the woods. Only few people know about the place since it's covered with leaves that are so close that you wouldn't make out anything behind them.

Gentle breeze blew, giving it an even more peaceful feel.

"Wow!" Garrett exclaimed, looking around the lake. His eyes wandered around until they came back on me.

Maybe him too was praying secretly to meet his mate.

"Beautiful, right?" I chuckled. 

"Yes, you are. I've always wondered what my mate would look like. Pictured how she would talk too and her features were etched into my brain in illusion. I never knew the moon goddess had a better one for me. The one who surpasses my imagination in multiple folds. I've not known you for long but tell me why I'm helplessly in love with you, already?" He said in a so romantic tone. 

Ohhhh… That was a good one.

I wanted to talk, but nothing reasonable came to my mind. I'm an ardent believer of love at first sight, especially with mates because of the tons of books I've read. I've only known him for minutes, yet my whole body jolts to life at a mere stare from him. His lips were the next thing I felt on mine.

    LUPE'S POVLaughter rippled out of my mouth as Garrett tickled my sides out of the blues. It's been two days since we met and it's safe to say that it has been blissful. He was given a suite in the pack house since he came to the pack on an official business pending the time that he was here.He'll still be here until we finish the mating ritual. It's traditional that it's performed in the female's pack, especially if she is one of the alpha's blood. Although Garrett now knows that I'm not the alpha’s biological daughter, he agreed that we do the ceremony here since my mother is Luna. I still find it hard to tell him about the Lycan king which I needed to do before the mating ceremony. I can't leave such important information out, it was even still fresh to be brushed aside, he deserves to know. The Lycan king niche had died down, Mom said the king wouldn’t want to take me as his breeder seeing as I've met my mate already. And I couldn’t wait until Garrett and I become one fully. Bo

I peeped from time to time, checking if Garrett would seek in to see me before the ritual like agreed but, nothing.Honestly, I was stunned by the number of people who came for my mating ceremony. Might be because Garrett was a Beta. If just me, no one would have come to the mating ceremony because, I’m a mere omega but, they had no idea I wasn’t ordinary… a rare wolf.Mum later explained the reason I was considered a rare wolf. I never heard of the purple moon until of recent. Only a few, knows the legendary tales.However, I was dressed in an evening gown which had a low neckline to give Garrett easy access to marking me.Finally getting mated.

I saw darkness with tiny shiny stars. It almost looked real until, it started to fade as the pain of the slap reduced. “You don’t talk to me in such a manner. Or do you have a death wish?” He asked with a raised brow.My anger were bubbling in my blood as I bit my lower lip, trying to suppress the urge to cry as tears welled up in my eyes, blurring my sight. No one has ever dared to slap me since I was the step daughter to the Alpha of my pack. “Let me go!” I muttered.Overlooking what I said, he took a few steps backwards and uttered with a mischievous smile, “You are beautiful. I hope that is how you are on the inside. The bastard of a mate hasn’t touched you, right? Guess he planned to do that tonight but, he I am to help him out on that.”My heart bleed knowing it was supposed to be my

    LUPE'S POV"You are a beast!" I yelled, my voice quivering with rage and terror. My words kept lingering in the air, but the Lycan King literally ignored me. He was acting very calmly, as if he was the only breathing life in the room or maybe my defiance were only but a noise from a distant breeze.I sat at the extreme end of the bed, my body shaking not just in fear but to the fact that the sight of him was really disgusting. I held my arms tightly around my body, as if I was trying to protect the little pride left in me. I was too scared to dare to stand or try to make any rash movement. That very moment my mind was really racing with desperate thoughts."Lupe you can escape! Run! Just leave everything behind and run for your dear life."But even as those thoughts kept lingering in my head. I knew it was a very bad idea, clearly impossible. Even if I manage to sneak out of the room, there would be guards stationed at every angle of the house. I'm sure they are guards standing outsid

My nose were overwhelmed with the pungent smell of smoke, and my ears were filled with people's frantic screams. Flames licked at the sky as I staggered forward, my feet crunching on the charred ground. Everywhere around me was hot and it seemed like the whole world was on fire. Cries and shouts radiated from all directions, combining to create an overwhelming clamor. Some wolves in human form were pulling others who were barely able to keep up as they rushed by me, their fur burning as they ran in utter despair. The pack village I had known my whole life was turning to ash, and children were screaming for their moms. It was an unbearable sight.My pulse was racing as I spun around in panic, trying to figure out what was going on. With every second that went by, the flames grew louder, mercilessly consu

A woman in her early fifties stood in front of me, with her rude face and evil eyes that seemed to cut straight through me.They called her "Sarah the slasher," though I don't know why everyone in the pack house refer to her as that.Her eyes moved over me, from my bare feet to the tangled mess of hair that fell around my shoulders, and she made no effort to conceal her contempt. I could clearly notice the slight curvature of her lips in disgust."What took you so long to open the damn door?" she whispered, barely audible but loud enough for me to hear.In the back of my mind, my wolf Leah growled, and I tensed up. Leah hissed, "She's making fun of us."I ignored Sarah without even looking straight to her eyes.Then after a while I turned my attention away from leah and towards Sarah, who stood up straight and arched an eyebrow.

The sunshine pouring in through the tall windows made the floor so shiny. I felt a tiny twinge of pride at the work I'd done, even though my arms hurt from the scraping and I could still perceive some pungent cleaning solution. I gave myself a little moment of satisfaction because it was uncommon for me to feel like I had done anything here.After gathering the cleaning items, I put the mop back in its proper place in the corner and wrapped the rags with care. I was about to go to my room when I heard footsteps approaching behind me. I didn't even turn back before my stomach fell.I knew it was Kyan again. Who else could it be if not her?"What the fuck do you think you are doing?" She said in a very harsh, disrespectful tone. 'Why won't this b*tch leave me alone?'

I've not seen her behave this inhumane to anyone before." A girl said from behind.I cleaned my tears and continued, giving no room for chats."I'm Ariel, what's yours?" The girl who is obviously a maid too, asked.She bent and helped in packing the dirts on the floor so, it would be easier for me to mop."Thank you." I said instead of telling her my name."Since you are still in a bad mood, I will finish this and maybe later." She said and I didn't answer. She did as she said and left me alone.Quickly, I finished up and rushed to my room. It was my only safe shelter. Once I leave that room, something would surely bring tears to my eyes.My room's small windows let in the early light, which left the walls in deep shadows.

I tried to raise him up but it was futile, he was way bigger than I was, his hands alone were too big for me to lift. I tried to think fast, even if I managed to lift him up, I will have to answer to the guards, they might think I tried to kill him. I couldn't leave him like this, I would not forgive myself. But he deserves it. A voice that wasn't Leah said. "I still don't have the courage to do that." I replied."His friend." Leah said calmly."Does he even have one?" I asked shaking my head at his sorry state."He might not look like, but he does." Leah answered. "Who on earth would even want to be his friend?" I asked feeling all the emotions he made me feel come back all at once. The pains, the hate, the sadness, I wanted nothing more than to see him broken but now that I was looking at him, I couldn't leave him like that."The Beta, I believe they are friends." She replied."How can I find him

It was late at night yet here I was instead of sleeping, I was thinking about the same man who had brutally rejected me. "What the fuck is wrong with me?" I groaned closing my eyes as I rolled on the bed."I have no idea, but I can totally relate to how you're feeling." She replied. "That's because you're my wolf and you're a part of me." I said in reply. "Maybe." She was quiet for a while. "What's Sebastian's deal?" She asked. I shook my head, "I have no idea, he keeps popping up when he shouldn't. I told him that his proposal was not acknowledged because I belonged to the King but he refused to give up." "Do you think he's telling the truth?" She asked. "I have no idea, talking about this made me remember the day Kyna caught me in the bush with him." "If it wasn't for Dave, you would ha

I laughed, "of course, they think this would bring me down?" I shook my head. "I'm stronger than that." She nodded, "I'm glad, I was scared that you might be hiding in your bedroom away from everyone." I sent her a look."I'm sorry about your loss your highness." She placed her hand on mine, for a moment, I wanted to accept her condolences but I snatched my hand away from her hold. "Thank you." I said taking another swing.She held two cups, "You might want to use these instead." I placed the bottle on the table while she picked it ip serving the drinks. "You mentioned a certain they, what do you mean?" She asked. "Was she killed on purpose?" She asked offering me a glass.I emptied it's contents down my throat. "I don't want to talk about it."

I moved away from her gasp as Cenat stood before me proactively."Why are you here?" He asked in a more aggravated tone. "I came to see my brother.""Who is your brother? Does he work here?" Cenat asked. "L.. Leo, I heard he was framed for the murder of the King's maiden." She said."Framed?" I scoffed. "Who told you that?" Cenat asked. "Ethan, he stopped by my house earlier." She said with teary eyes."Ethan? A guard here too?" Cenat asked."Yes, he's Leo's friend." Cenat laughed, "he stood against him today telling hin to face the music of his punishment." Her face fell, "N.. no! Ethan loves Leo, they have been friends since childhood." Cenat and I exchanged a glance. "Please your majesty, Leo would never hurt anyone, he hates the smell of blood. He would not be so stupid to kill the King's beloved." The image of Kyna's bleeding body flash

He replied. "I'm sorry for what happened to Kyna." He apologized staring at me."Hmm." I muttered staring into space. "How about the council?" "I made sure they were kept in the dark." He replied. "Good." We sat in silence for sometime, each of us lost in our own thoughts. "Do you really think he did it?" I asked suddenly. Cenat glanced at me in shock, "You don't?" He asked in return.I shook my head."Why do you think so," he asked. "An expert with knives can easily tell that those marks were caused by deep resentment." I stared at Cenat, "What happened between them was not enough for such resentment." "He was in love with her yet she was with you." He said, "love can make anyone go crazy." "I don't think a man would hurt a woman he loved like that." I said getting up."Is that the act

"Let's find somewhere to sit." He held my hand leading me to a log of wood. I settled in closing my eyes. "Are you okay?" He asked. "Not after seeing Kyna like that." I replied, my stomach sent another signal. "She must have been scared." He leaned into the tree's bark. I imagined Kyna's once proud and fearless face turn into one of fear, her pretty face filled with lines of etched by dread. I could almost see her pleading for her life. I bit back the bile in my throat."I know Kyna can be annoying sometimes, but I can't help but wonder just how much she had offended the killer to have met such fate." I said.Dave wrapped his arm around my shoulders. "People are the most scariest creatures. Killing her was enough, but doing that to her body was just pure evil, only a wicked witch woul

    Adrian's POV I stared at her lips, they were turning purple but I couldn't bring myself to let go. For some reason, I kept recalling her smiling face. She had wanted to speak to me, but foolishly I didn't give her chance to. Was it possible that she knew her killer? Had she been feeling threatened before we met last night?I was so stupid for ignoring her. My hands shook, her eyes were wide open but unstaring. They looked scared. "I'm so sorry Kyna." I whispered closing her eyes with my hands. "All you did was love me and that has caused this to you." I felt as though a part of me was broken. Ignoring the blood that left my clothes drenched, I pulled her to my chest."My Lord." Cenat cleared his throat, he had left earlier. "I think it's time we put her to rest, her wounds are severe." "No.. she's a strong girl, she might heal..." my eyes widened, "hurry Cenat, call a healer, she might still live." Her laughter kept ringing in my ears. He walked closer, "My Lord, she's gone w

I sent her a lazy smile.She rolled her eyes, "I get that you love me so much, but I am starting to think you enjoy sex with me rather than my company." I grabbed her waist pulling her close, "I can't help the fact that you're so beautiful and the mere thought of you is enough to make me hard." Her melodious laughter made me smile. "Did you see the things I sent to you?" I asked planting a kiss on her neck as she snuggled against me."I did, I was here earlier to express how grateful I am but you were in a meeting with Beta Cenat." She said playing with the hem of her robe. "You can expressed your gratitude now." I said with heat in my eyes. She smiled as her fingers trailed lazily up my thigh till they were dancing dangerously close to my dick."You are playing with the King's meat Kyna." I muttered, need

Sarah asked gripping Mira's hands, "That silliness will get you killed in no time." Mira's face was red, she had snot runnung down her nose. "I really wish that is the case, but it's not." Sarah slapped her on the arm, "The King will have your head if you keep saying that." She snapped.I glanced at Sarah, her hands were trembling, she was in denial even when she knew that Mira might be telling the truth. "Tell us what happened." I said sitting on a stool, for some reasons my hands were trembling. I never liked Kyna, and she hated me too but hearing the sudden news of her death was enough to overwhelm me. Mira slumped to the ground, her shoulders jerking in rhythm of her throaty cries. "You're joking right?" Sarah asked, this time she was calmer, her eyes were wide in shock. "T.. they just found her body dangling on a pole by the gate." Mira choked.
