All Chapters of An Alpha’s Loss, Another’s Gain: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Mellissa's PovI woke up today with a knot in my stomach and feeling extremely tired, which is quite unusual for someone who got proposed to yesterday. Glancing over at the clock on my bedside stool I realized I had overslept, the time was past 8 am. I stood up from bed abruptly as I knew I was in deep trouble, Mrs. Ironheart the head omega won't spare me for waking up late, when I have chores to do. I wonder why she hasn't barged into my room yet and given me an earful already, most times she'll even pour water on my bed, and I'll have to sleep on the floor until my bed gets dried.I quickly washed my face with cold water, and brushed my teeths, bathing can wait a little longer, but Mrs. Ironheart's wrath won't. As soon as I stepped out of my room in the omega quarters, I saw Mrs. Ironheart addressing the omega's.I tiptoed towards them and tried sneaking in to join the meeting without being noticed."Welcome, Queen of Queens," Mrs. Ironheart said mockingly, and all eyes were suddenl

Melissa's Pov It's been over four days since Alfredo said those cruel words to me. Every time I hear footsteps in the dungeon I keep on hoping that it was Alfredo, maybe he has come back to his senses and was ready to apologize, but each time my hopes keep getting shattered. My tears had run dry and all I do all day since then is just lay on the cold harsh floor dejected and wallowing in self pity. By this time tomorrow all my pains and sufferings would be over, as judgment would be passed upon me on the grounds of theft. It was obvious I'd be executed so I just closed my eyes and got consumed by my nightmares, at least it's better than the emotional nightmare I'm going through."Melissa!" I heard my name in a hushed whisper. "Melissa, you've got to wake up!"Slowly opening my eyes, I saw Sarah, Alfredo's Beta."Here, there's no time," she threw a bunch of keys to me. "You need to leave immediately!""What's happening?" I stuttered, sitting up.I couldn't understand what was going o

Melissa’s Pov“Take her to the dungeon,” His order rang in my ears like steel bells with his unnerving gaze on me.I moved away from his grip, scared out of my wits. There was no way I escaped a dungeon to end up in another one. Blue eyes that stared at me under the faint glow of the moonlight were no longer enticing and mysterious, having lost all of their allure to a coldness I couldn’t fathom.“No, please. Don’t do this to me,” I pleaded, stepping backward with every word I said to gain distance from the men in front of me.“Do you know where you are, spy?” He said the word with venom under his tongue. His word rang through the woods and sent birds fluttering into the night.“I’m not a spy, I beg of you. If only you would let me pass and I’ll be on my way,” I continued with my pleas, but none of the men before me looked touched by my words as fangs reflected silver under the moon’s glow. Bloodthirst filled the air from their bodies and auras.The man named Alpha Farell stood as his

Alfredo’s Pov A groan escaped my lips as sleep evaded me from the knock on the door. I trudged to the door, aching to sleep with some hours left before I would do anything.“What’s it?” I asked as I opened the door to see the face of my mother’s Beta, dressed in white clothes tucked neatly into a black skirt that fitted her shape.“Your mother wants you to know your fiance is ready to leave,” she said without batting an eyelid.I covered my mouth as I made to yawn, closing the door on her. “Tell her I’ll be on my way soon.”She put her leg in between the space before I could close it shut. “She said right now.” Her eyes burned almost the same way my mother’s eyes would burn when she needed your attention.“Let me clean up and I’ll be with her,” I said to pacify the beta. She nodded as she removed her foot. The sound of her heel clicking to the ground echoed around the hall. I sighed as I shut the door, moving past the furniture and to the bathroom.I stood in front of the mirror, sta

Princess Sheila’s POV The journey home was quieter than I expected. Lisa remained quiet the whole time, refusing to tell me the details of what transpired between her and Alfredo’s wolf.“What did he ask of you?” I asked the wolf that had turned mute with me, hoping to get a glimpse of their discussion if not all of it.“He did what we discussed last night,” Lisa said. Her answer sounded like she didn’t want me to ask about it.I agreed with my thought as I stared through the tinted glass. The blue sky was tinted ash by the dark windows, to white fluffy clouds. With a low bow, a guard opened the door for me when we got home. My heels clicked on the ground as I stepped on the mosaic of a rose in front of our house.My father stood, a smile on his face as he welcomed me home. He still looked young with his stubble of almost golden beards on his chin. I wondered why I never got his genes for his golden hair, instead, it was my mother’s silky, black hair.“How did it go?” He asked as he
