"YOU!"
It was none other than Ryan Iversen. I felt disgusted. He had only recently returned to this pack and was already making out with girls!
He arched an eyebrow and replied,
"Yeah, it's me, and for your kind information, it's my party, baby."
I got angry when he addressed me as "Baby".
My phone kept ringing, so I ignored him and continued walking. I came to a stop a short distance away and received the call.
"Dad"
"Where are you, Allison?"
"W-Well Dad, I came to a party."
"A party? What party?"
My father's voice came out desperately. He always cared about me a lot. Since I was an Omega, he and my mother cared about my safety.
"My school's party. I came here with Teresa. So don't worry, Dad. She will drop me off at home."
"That's a relief. You were not receiving calls, so your mom got worried."
"Tell her that I will come back soon."
"Okay, take care and come back safely."
"Yes, Dad."
He hung up the call, and I sighed. I did not tell him that I was in a club. I was not a kid anymore. So they did not need to worry about me.
I turned around to go back to Teresa.
But the moment I turned, I gasped.
"Done talking?"
I glared at Ryan. "You almost scared me to death."
The left corner of his lips lifted slightly. "Well, most of the girls died on my handsome face, baby."
He winked at me and chuckled after seeing my stunned reaction.
He did not look like someone I could mess with. His black clothing gave him a dark aura.
I did not tell him who I was. He might not recognize me, just like I didn't when I first saw him.
I took a step to pass by his side, but he stopped me.
"Where are you going?"
"Let me go," I said with a cold tone.
"Tsk. What about the damage you caused?"
When I heard his words, I looked up at him. He was very tall. He was indeed handsome, but it did not grab my attention. He was not a good boy.
"What damage are you talking about?" I asked.
"You just ruined my sweet time with a beauty. Now who will pay the compensation?"
I was confused. What exactly was he talking about?
He took a step closer to me, and I was startled.
The buttons on his shirt were undone. Under the dim light from behind me, I could see his chest.
“Esto quod es”
It was written across the right side of his ribcage. It was almost six inches high, wrapping around the majority of his side, and it was hard to miss.
Before his body almost touched mine, I pushed his chest hard with my hands.
"Stay away from me."
I rushed out of the corner but bumped into another person.
'How come I keep bumping into people today?' I sighed and grumbled.
Unfortunately, it was Ethan. When he noticed me coming around the corner, he grimaced. When he peered behind me, his expression became solemn.
Ryan appeared around the corner as I turned my head. He smirked at Ethan when he spotted him.
I returned my gaze to Ethan.
"Excuse me."
I moved away from Ethan and reached the dance floor.
Teresa was nowhere to be found. I started to look for her.
To locate Teresa, I continued lightly pushing people on the dance floor.
A hand grabbed my hand and drew me away from the crowd.
"Here you are! Where were you? When I came back to the barside, I could not find you." Teresa said while huffing.
"Dad called me, so I went to take his call."
"I thought I lost you at the club," Teresa said and hugged me.
"Let's go back," I murmured.
She nodded at me, and we went out of the club.
I took a deep breath as the fresh air reached my face.
I felt smothered on the inside until I got out and felt alive.
Partying was definitely not my thing. Clubs were not my place. I was happy with a simple life. These people were not like me. Their lives were drastically different from mine.
We walked to Teresa's car and got in. Teresa started the car.
"Where were you, by the way? I looked for you in almost the whole club."
"I was in a corner."
"Oh. I didn't search the corners. My bad."
"Hmm." I glanced outside.
"Why is your mood off?"
"I met the most ridiculous man I have ever seen."
"Who?"
"Someone who only knows how to disturb girls."
I heard the sound of a chuckle. I turned my head toward Teresa.
"What?" I asked.
"You look irritated. Who made my bestie angry?"
"That Ryan Iversen." I muttered.
"WHAT?" She shouted.
"Hey, stop shouting. Focus on the road. I don't want to die."
"Allison, what did he do?"
"Nothing. I ruined his lovely time, so he asked for a substitute."
"What the hell!"
"Yeah, exactly. I pushed him hard before he could get close to me."
"That bastard!"
I exhaled when Teresa started to curse Ryan.
"Allison, stay away from Ryan. I got to know many things about him. He was a playboy at his last school. Everyone from the outside knows him, especially girls. He is very popular among girls. He does not date but only fu-"
"OKAY OKAY STOP IT."
I shouted and stopped her from telling me more.
"I don't want to hear those stupid things."
"Okay." Teresa shut her mouth and kept driving quietly.
We reached my home. I got out of the car. "Thanks, Teresa."
"I should not have asked you to go with me. I only made you feel bored."
"No, I enjoyed the moment with you. So thanks again. It was a new experience."
Teresa nodded and smiled, then she drove away.
I entered my house and saw my parents waiting for me.
We had dinner together, then I went to sleep.
The next morning, I woke up early.
After I had finished getting dressed for school, my mother insisted that I eat breakfast before leaving the house.
My father chuckled,
"What's the hurry?"
"Dad, I will be late."
"Tell them your father took your time, so you became late."
I shook my head. "Dad, no one knows that I am the beta's daughter."
"Why?"
"I don't want to grab any attention. They will start to treat me differently, which I don't want. Just like they treat Ethan."
My mother spoke out,
"Ryan is also going to join your school."
I nodded and kept eating.
"Luna Ella told me to tell you if you could show him around since he is new."
I paused and thought,
'Yeah, he is new and has started to make out with girls already.'
Suddenly, my father shook his head.
"No, he is not like Ethan. You can be friends with Ethan, but not Ryan. I don't want you to be around him, okay?"
I looked at my father with confused eyes, but then I realized that everyone knew about Ryan's personality. So it was good to be far away from him.
"Don't worry, Dad. I will stay away from him."
My mother did not say anything. We had breakfast silently after that.
I caught a bus to go to school. When I arrived at my school, I noticed that the girls were in a variety of moods. Some of them appeared pleased, while others were depressed.
I was strolling through the hallway. My gaze was drawn to Ethan. Julie was there with him. Their arms were locked, and they headed to a class.
'Did they patch up last night?' I wondered. I felt heartbroken.
I turned aside and went to the locker room. I unlocked my locker but was taken aback when someone slammed the door and stood behind me.
In shock, I turned around.
"What made you think I could not recognize you, Allison Clark?"
I stared at Ryan. There was an amazement in his eyes as if he had just caught me red-handed. He raised a brow. "What?"I averted my gaze from him and looked around to see if anyone had heard him. Everyone was looking at us while whispering to each other.He was not loud enough to be heard. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.I opened my eyes and looked up at him."Can you just move?""Why?""What do you want, Ryan?""Why didn't you tell me about yourself when I asked you who you were?"I rolled my eyes. "I didn't find it important to tell you about myself. And we are not that close anyway."He was silent. I glanced at him, thinking I might be a little bit rude.But I was so wrong! He was smirking. I wanted to smack his smirk."Ryan, what are you doing with her?" I heard a voice and looked behind him. It was Sophia. She was our pack's Delta's daughter. Everyone knew about her identity, and that was why she roamed around our school like a queen. Her first target was Ethan; however
It had been one week since I started to avoid Ethan. That day, I did not reply to his brother, Ryan. He said I was in love with Ethan. I was surprised at first, but then I realized he could read my eyes when I was looking at his brother.After that day, he did not come to bother me again. He became very popular in our school. As Teresa said, he did not date. I only saw him with different girls each time. Ethan also looked strange whenever he was around me. I did not know why. Since I was avoiding him, I should not think about it either."My honey's birthday is tomorrow. I am so excited."I heard Teresa cheer up about my birthday.It was going to be my eighteenth birthday. I somehow felt nervous. It was the time when werewolves found their mates. If before that someone marked me, I could be his mate. But I had not mated with someone yet, so I would get someone as my mate."What are you thinking?" Teresa patted my shoulder.I shook my head. "Nothing.""Are you still thinking about Eth
"Allison, my dear, everyone is waiting for you downstairs. Come fast." My mother shouted from downstairs. I was in a daze when my mother left my room. She told me that Alpha Neil's family had come. That meant Ethan also came here. I shook my head. 'No, no. I can not think about him anymore,' I told myself. I glanced at myself in the mirror. I was in a long brown dress. It was a simple yet pretty dress. My mother chose it for me. It was my birthday gift from her. I was not particularly eager to put on much makeup, so I only applied mascara and light pink lipstick. I left my room and went downstairs. I was stunned when I saw the decorations in my own house. It appeared to be rather fascinating. There were so many flowers everywhere, and the fragrance of roses tickled my nostrils. 'When did they do all of these?' I thought. I smiled and went to the living room. The moment I entered, a pair of arms wrapped around my body and hugged me. "You look so pretty." I smiled at my
"MATE?"His eyes were gazing into mine. I could not describe how I felt at that time. In fact, I could not believe it.'Ethan is my mate?'It was like a dream I had been dreaming of for a long time came true.I loved him from my childhood days. We were kids. He always played with me, and we became playmates. But then he started to go to training to become an Alpha and I was busy with my studies.However, I was in the same middle school as him. My eyes always followed him wherever he went. One day, I was going back home alone; that night, I was trapped in danger. A few hooligans were passing the road and saw me. They tried to molest me, but in that hazardous moment, Ethan saved me. He did not even think about himself and protected me.Only Alpha and my father knew about this incident. They didn't tell Luna and my mother about it. They did not want to make them worry.However, after that night, my love for Ethan turned deep. I could not think of anyone else in my life except him.I cou
Third POV ..."I, Alpha Ethan, reject you, Omega Allison as my mate."Allison immediately grabbed her heart. She felt a loud noise in both of her ears. It did not come from outside but inside of her.She could see Ethan leaving her alone in the forest. She tried her best to stand straight until he left. The moment he left, she fell to the ground and screamed in pain."Aaaaahh!"She clutched her clothes, and almost pierced her nails in her palms. Why was the pain unbearable? What was happening to her? Would she die?Her head was burning like hell. Her wolf started to howl inside. She was whimpering in pain. How could he do that to her? Did he not know that by rejecting his mate, she could die too? "Please help me, Moon Goddess."She begged the moon goddess. Though she knew there was no way to save from this intolerable pain.It was nature's law. If anyone broke it, they had to bear the consequences. However, the law was one-sided. Only the wolf who got rejected could feel the pa
"Then let me have her."Hearing that Ethan sneered at Ryan. "She knows you are a playboy. Do you think you can actually have her?"Ryan shrugged his shoulders. "There is nothing in this world that Ryan Iversen can't have.""Don't forget who her father is. She is Beta Glen's daughter. He will kill you.""The one who rejected his daughter talking about his capability to me. Funny isn't it?"Ethan averted his gaze from Ryan. He tilted his neck. His bruised cheek by Ryan's punch was also healed in a few minutes."What if your impressed dad will get to know about his son's action? What will happen to your name in his good books huh?" Ryan said to him and raised a brow.His eyes turned dark. "If you want to tell him, you can. I am no one to stop you.""Are you serious? A coward like you who could not dare to accept an omega, talk like this?"Ethan turned around. "I am already messed up. Just leave me alone."Ryan nodded his head. "Looks like you are not happy after rejecting her. Why?"He s
Everyone was worried for Allison. Teresa just left the house after assuring Allison's mother that she would be okay.Beta Glen and his wife Joey left Allison's room half an hour ago. They would check on her in the morning. All of a sudden they heard Allison's scream."NO!"Beta Glen looked at Joey, she also looked at her husband. "Allison!"They let out and went on upstairs. They opened the door and saw Allison crying."What happened, my princess?" Beta Glen asked and hugged her.Joey started to cry when she saw Allison crying. What happened to her daughter? Allison shook her head when she realized that her parents came to see her. She wiped her tears and replied,"Nothing, Mom and Dad."They looked at her carefully. "Why are you crying?" Joey asked.Allison was silent. "It's okay if you don't want to say anything." Beta Glen said.Allison shook her head. Her voice was hoarse. She replied with that broken voice."I just had a nightmare."Beta Glen and Joey felt relieved when they
Allison POVI was flabbergasted when I heard Doctor Linus. 'What is he saying? A powerful high ranked wolf can only do that? If it's true then how did I survive? It is indeed questionable.' I thought.Doctor Linus patted my head when he saw me lost in some thoughts. "Don't think too much. We all are moon children. You may get some blessings. That's why you are totally fine. However, it could take your wolf's or your life too."I smiled at him sadly. I wanted to laugh at myself. How foolish I was! Loving someone who did not love you back was undoubtedly a wrong decision.I made the worst choice to break my heart. If my mate was someone I did not know then I would think less, but it was the same man I loved. "Who is he?"I heard Doctor Linus. I looked at him with my glossy eyes. "Who is he, Allison? I promise I won't tell anyone. You can trust me."I lowered my head. "It's your Alpha Ethan."He gasped. He could not believe what I had just said to him.Ethan was the soon to be head
Allison gave Teresa a nod and went inside the salon. Elora and Teresa both joined her behind. Their bodyguards got out of the cars, opened the trunk of Allison's car, and took out the stuff from inside before entering the salon.A beautiful woman came up to Allison and respectfully bowed to her."Welcome, Luna. Long time, no see."Allison smiled at her and replied,"Selena Harris, how are you?""I was fine, Luna. But after hearing from you and being given such a significant opportunity, I am more thrilled than I could have ever imagined."Allison talked to her for some time and introduced Elora and Teresa to her.Selena and her staff prepared everything for Elora first because Allison said she and Teresa would get ready later, after Elora.The whole day went there. It was evening. Allison gave the phone a quick check and saw that Ryan had called. She paid it no attention and instead concentrated on her makeup.After she had finished getting ready, she stood in front of the mirror to ex
ONE YEAR LATERA woman came out of the bathroom while rubbing her wet hair with a white towel. She was dressed in a royal green gown. After tossing the towel on the couch, she lifted her hand and stroked a wolf necklace that was hanging around her neck.Her eyes landed on the man who was sleeping on the bed."Ryan, wake up. You know Ethan will get angry at you." She said and walked to the door.She opened the door to leave the bedroom but paused and turned to the man, who did not open his eyes or move at all.She heaved a sigh before shutting the door. She turned around and walked to the bed.She sat on the edge beside him and observed his handsome face."Hey! I know you are not sleeping."He did not give her a response. She let out a chuckle as she ruffled his face with her damp hair and chuckled.He opened his eyes and grabbed her waist."I knew it!" She exclaimed when she noticed him looking at her."How can you decide to go out without giving me a morning kiss, hmm?" He asked whil
Allison tried to hide the redness in her cheeks by placing her hands over her face. However, he took hold of her wrists and climbed on top of her.She breathed in when his lower part touched hers over her clothes. She could feel the bulge.He started to kiss her. The kiss turned wilder when he began to grind their lower parts together. She moaned in the kiss as she started to feel a sensation in her body.He unhooked the top piece and threw it somewhere."Ah! Ryan!"She bit her bottom lips when he fastened his motion. When his lips brushed over her breasts, it caused her to jerk her entire body. It was an excessive amount of pleasure for her."I haven't even let my beast out of its cage yet. If you can't handle this pleasure, then what will you feel when I am inside you?" He asked while gazing at her.She looked at him, and he did not break eye contact. He shucked her bare breasts and twisted her buds in order to bring her greater pleasure.His hands moved to her bottom piece. He pull
"So beautiful!"Allison caught herself concentrating on the details of the home's interior. Scented candles provided illumination throughout the entire house, which was decorated with the petals of roses.Her sense of smell was fascinated by the aroma of those candles and roses, which gave off a scent that was reminiscent of paradise."You liked it?" She heard Ryan's whispers in her ear.She turned around with a bright smile and replied,"Ryan, it's so beautiful. You planned all of this for me? Why didn't you tell me?"He wrapped his arms around her waist and smiled at her."It was a surprise, baby."She took a few moments to take in her surroundings before saying,"Then I should also give you some surprises."He moved his head down while he was pulling her closer to him. He nuzzled her nose with his."You don't have to give me any surprises, my love. Because you are a present to me from the Moon Goddess. I don't want anything in my life except you. I don't care about anything else in
All of the people in the hall could hear Ryan's words. All the Alphas of different packs came to attend the wedding; they also heard it and felt fear inside, as if Ryan said it out loud to make them hear it.Both Glen and Joey appeared content with the response that was given. On the other hand, Allison was taken aback.How was it possible for someone to love another person so deeply?He started to proceed with her to the center of the stage.She was stunned when she noticed something in his hand. He was wearing the watch she gave him on his birthday. She was shocked that he still kept it with him and did not break it in anger when all of these things happened in the past.Allison looked at his face, which looked delighted as if he was the happiest person in the world.She felt lucky to have him in her life. She made a promise to herself that she would never stop loving this man and that she would always be by his side.They came to a halt in the center. "You are the most stunning wo
The Wedding Day"I have never seen such a beautiful bride before!"The other ladies in the room nodded their heads in agreement."I can't believe what will happen to our Alpha today. He will be blown away by your beauty." Teresa spoke out once again while looking at the woman, who was staring at herself in the mirror."Allison, say something." She said to her.Allison couldn't help but crack a smile as she continued to listen to her best friend lavish praise onto her.It was time for the wedding, and she was prepared. All the A-class makeup artists were arranged for her.Indeed, she possessed a stunning appearance.She lowered her head and gently stroked the white bridal gown that she was wearing, which had been designed by the most talented designer in their pack.Ryan arranged everything best for her. She was delighted that she was going to spend the rest of her life with the person who loved her the most, cared for her the most, could not bear to see her upset, and would do everyth
Everyone was surprised after hearing Ryan. Ethan was stunned by it.Ryan walked to him and patted his shoulder. "That's your pack. I just helped to win it because your wolf was not reacting at that time. But your wolf will get back to you soon. So I want you to take back your pack, which I was just protecting for a few days."Alpha Neil could not believe his son could be this great. He won the pack, yet he was giving it back to his brother.Neil felt emotional about it. He could not help but think,'Brother, see my two sons. They are together and standing for each other. We are all happy. Hope you can see this.'Ethan stared at Ryan for a minute. They were waiting for his response. But nothing came out of his mouth.Suddenly, he hugged Ryan. Everyone felt blissful looking at them."Thank you." Ethan muttered.Ryan hugged him back. He patted his back and said,"It's okay. Don't become emotional like that night. It's your pack. There is nothing to be thankful about."Ethan broke the hug
"Max, drive the car."As Teresa saw Allison and Ryan make their way to a car, she turned to Max and told him to drive. Because Ryan had sustained an injury to his right arm, he could not drive the car.Max smiled at Teresa and nodded his head before walking up to the car. Max interrupted Ryan just as he was about to open the front door for Allison by stating,"I will drive the car. You both can sit in the back seat.""No, I can drive," Ryan said to him.Allison held Ryan's hand and said, "No, you can't. Let's sit in the back."Ryan gave her a thoughtful look and drew closer to whisper in her ear. "Why do you think I can't drive? Did you forget how I drove the car with one hand when you were sleeping in my arms?"Allison blushed at hearing his words. She recalled about that evening. She bit her bottom lip to control her smile while thinking about that time.Max patted Ryan's shoulder and asked,"If you two have your moments done, then let's go?"Allison requested Ryan, "Please, let Max
Allison was shocked. Ryan had just gotten a shot on his right arm. She turned her head and saw Alpha Charles standing with a gun. He was about to shoot once again, but Max ran to him and kicked both of his legs. He fell on his knees. The gun fell to the ground as well.Allison turned her attention to Ryan, who showed no sign of discomfort despite the wound. He was observing Charles as he kneeled on the ground.Allison cast her gaze back to his arm once more. She was seething with rage. When her wolf saw that her mate had been hurt by another person, she went completely insane.As a result, she retreated before hurriedly making her way to Alpha Charles. Because she was so quick, Alpha Charles did not have time to move or grab the gun again.Allison growled at him while running. She bit his right arm, which caused it to become detached from the rest of his body.Alpha Charles let out a piercing scream. He could not believe that he had lost his arm. A pool of blood gushed from his body.
