All Chapters of HE'S THE RUTHLESS ALPHA MY HEART WANTS: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

ESMERAY"I pronounce you Alpha and Luna; you may now kiss the bride!" It was the loveliest scene I had ever witnessed. They looked absolutely gorgeous together. Princess Natalie and Alpha Gustavo were the perfect mating bond that the Moon Goddess had ever formed."Now it's time to dance!" the best man echoed, and Natalie and Gustavo, the newlywed couple, made their way down the altar in grand style, with prelude music playing in the background.I took the opportunity to steal her for a moment. "Congratulations, sweetie! I'm so happy for you. But don't think that means I'm not jealous. Hold onto your alpha tightly, or I might just try desperately steal him for myself," I said, chuckling."Thank you so much, Esmeray. And as for stealing my husband, well... That's why I always carry this dagger with me." She stylishly revealed a dagger from under her wedding dress, surprising me. "I'll stab you before you go through with it," she added with a laugh.Whoa, she took the joke a bit too far,

ESMERAYI watched as my father raised his right hand to signal orderliness in the chamber, and everyone became calm.Then afterward, he read the rules that must be followed in the battle of the Alphas on the other side of the wall.I stood beside my father, my arms wrapped around his, wondering who among these Alphas would come out victorious and claim me as his fated mate as my gaze circled the dozens of Alphas.Oh, how long I have longed to meet the one Alpha for me.I couldn't remember the exact day I started yearning for my mate like a breath of life. Although I knew my mother's beautiful story she told me every night when I was much younger about how my father claimed her had a hand in it.I was a bit anxious amidst more than 200 Alphas, and my mate is staring at me right now."What will my mate be thinking of me as he watches me stand right here?" The thought ran freely in my head.My curiosity about that question made me scream joyfully in my belly while I tried to control my e

ESMERAY"Hope I'm not bothering the ladies," he said, a smirk now on his lips.It was Beta Leon of the Blue Rock Pack from the west side, and my heart sank."No, of course not. I was just about to leave," Miriam answered in one breath as she rushed out of the room, leaving me with a mischievous wink for some reason as she shut the door behind her.Leon's parents and mine were allies and good friends to the core.My father had met Leon's dad during the battle of the alphas, although they weren't from this kingdom. Ever since they met, their friendship grew stronger, and of course, it made sense for Leon and me, who were their children, to be close as well.The silence in my room persisted for a while before the handsome Beta standing by my bed broke it."Well, someone has been a crybaby," he said, chuckling as he approached to sit beside me on the bed."Get out." On a regular day, I wouldn't struggle to make that funny, although he chuckled at my words again."I would, but I can't miss

ESMERAYThe first rays of the new dawn felt gentle on my skin through my window, as did the lingering troubles from last night.I took a deep breath and cupped my hands around my face, lazily lying in bed.My fingers tingled around my lips as memories of last night with my friend flashed through my mind, and I was overcome by a wave of surreal emotions.Just as I was lost in thought, the door to my room swung open, and Miriam entered with my breakfast, snapping me back to reality.This morning, I decided to have breakfast in bed because I didn't feel like going downstairs just yet. Plus, I wanted to avoid a certain someone who is probably at the dining table right now."Here's your meal, Esmeray," she said, placing it neatly on the bed and sitting beside me, her eyes fixed on me."What?" I asked, spooning some food into my mouth.She remained silent, rolling her eyes and propping her hands beneath her chin.I put down the spoon and crossed my arms over my chest, still in my nightwear.

ESMERAYTime flew by quickly, and before I knew it, the sunny noon had turned into a dark evening illuminated by the moonlight, creating a fantastic atmosphere.Miriam had witnessed my Alpha kissing me earlier today at the chambers, and surprisingly, it was the first time she had seen his face.Since then, she had been unable to contain her excitement, gushing about how incredibly attractive he is. She also praised me for the success of my plan, which had brought the once ruthless Alpha within my reach.Miriam's decreased worry mirrored my own relief, as things were finally progressing for the better. I couldn't even fathom the thought of things being the opposite of what they are now, as it would devastate me. I expressed my gratitude to the Goddess for answering my prayers.Miriam offered to help me choose an outfit for the evening, and we ended up spending quite some time on it due to her overwhelming enthusiasm for our progress. We ended up trying on almost every item of clothing i
