ELARA'S POV 

(Day of Trial)

"Out." The guard said as he opened the cell, with a shaky breath I stood up and walked out of the cell. The cold air made all the hairs on my skin prickled up.

"Let's go." He said, leading me out of the cell, alongside with two other guards behind.

The air in the throne room felt thick like a room trapped of air. I stood in the middle of the throne room, swallowing hard as all eyes stared on me.

On the throne sat The Alpha. Alpha Ronan of the Mountain Dew Pack, His mistress sat opposite him.

"Bring her foward," Alpha Ronan's voice cut through the silence. Just as instructed, the guards pushed me forward further towards him. My stomach knotted, Was I about to get my head chopped off before even given a chance to speak or defend myself?

As I stepped forward, the air that circled around him seemed even more suffocating than the air in the throne. His presence felt like a force of nature - dark, tall. It was overwhelming.

The moment we made eye contact, I instinctively stumbled back, feeling my wolf tremble deep inside me. A pull strange, one that I have felt before... A pull that felt primal.

That strange, electric pull- like an invisible thread slowly pulling me towards him. It was so sudden, I blinked, confused and frustrated.

The Mate Bond.

No- it couldn't be. My eyes widened in realization.

There was no way in hell this man would be my second chance mate!

I look at the Alpha, Alpha Ronan. The moment our eyes met, everything else blurred, I could hear the voices of other people, but it sounded nothing less than background noises. The pull was so strong, I could barely breathe.

His gaze, however, was still unreadable. It felt more like a cold physical touch.

Was this dome sick trick? Really? After Kael, I'm mated to someone else who would never care?

He stood up, walking towards me before starting to walk in circles, as if measuring me up. Could he feel it too?

Suddenly he stopped, standing few feets in front of me.

"State your name."

"Elara,", I blurted out almost immediately.

"Why are you here?"

I sucked in a deep breath, swallowing hard. "I was running... From bad people. I don't have a home, I'm an orphan. With no family or no place to run to, I got lost," I lowered my head, my bottom lips quivering terribly, "I swear I never meant to trespass. I didn't know this was your territory."

"Elana," Ronan's voice boomed through the room, a low rumble that sent shivers down my spine. "Accessed of trespassing on Mountain Dew Pack, a violation against us. Do you deny it?"

"No, Alpha," my voice trembled, "I don't deny it. I just got lost.... I was running.... Trying to get away from someone,"

I could his feel gaze hardened on me, "Running? From what? Fear? Or something more sinister?"

A huge figure stepped forward, one of the guards that captured me, "Sire, We got her when she was almost attacked by some rogues. It was near the border, far from any established path. I'd say she was simply lost, but actually fleeing."

Ronan turned towards the guard, a questionable look in his dark eyes, as if doubting. "Was there anyone else with her?"

"Nothing of any kind, Alpha."

The whispers rippled through the assembled pack members, I could feel their fear and suspicion, it was evident on their features and the death stares they threw at me. I felt like an enemy.

After a moment of silence, Ronan's spike up as he walked back to his throne, "Trespassing is a grave offense."

"I beg of you," the tears began to blur my vision, to be honest. I didn't want to die, neither did I want to go back... "I didn't know."

"Alistair," Ronan spoke up, gesturing across the room, his gaze landed on an elder, whose face was etched with a deep frown as his brows furrowed, "Alistair, What's the customary sentence for trespassing?"

Alistair cleared his throat, "Alpha, for a simple trespass, a whipping and banishment would suffice. However," he paused, glaring at me, "These aren't simple times. A stronger sentence might be necessary.... In order to send a warning to others."

"Perhaps a display of force," Roman's mistress finally spoke up, her voice smooth like silk, yet her eyes held no emotion as it stared at me, her glare reminded me of Seraphine. "An execution would send a better clear message."

I gasped, unable to believe the words that just came out of her lips, do people really just hate me at first sight? I immediately dropped to my knees, the tears now falling to the ground. I only had one option left, to beg for my life. "I BEG OF YOU! I swear I no nothing and I didn't mean to trespass!"

She simply scoffed, "It's your words against our law? Surely you don't think you'd be that lucky? The moon goddess tore her grace from you the moment you set foot here!"

Obviously she wouldn't think an helpless girl like me would be of any harm right?

Well- you are fated to her man. My subconscious kicked in, but I chose to ignore, just the same way I'll ignore the fact that I and Ronan are second chance mates.

"Absolutely fantastic idea!" I heard another voice erupt from the crowd. An elder perhaps. Their voices began to increase almost as if agreeing to seal my fate.

"Maid." A deep voice cut through the room, silencing everyone. I looked up, it was Ronan. "You'll stay here as a maid. And that's final,"

"But-" His mistress tried to speak, but he placed a firm hand on her thigh, he then continued, "However. If you're caught suspicious. I wouldn't hesitate in ordering your death immediately."

I swallowed hard, my heart pounding hard against my rib cage, it pounded so hard I feared it would explode.

"Thank you." I simply said with a bow. I had no other choice, I was trapped. From one chaos to the other.

"The trial is over."

  • Bound by Blood, Fated to the Two Alphas    Chapter 73

    ELARA POVPanic clawed at my throat. I practically sprinted out of my room to Kael's office, the neatly folded letter clutched in my hand like a lifeline, as I entered his office, it was empty. I headed to his chambers, hoping he'd be there, but he wasn't. As I stood in the hallway, lost and confused on what to do, Clara approached."Miss Elara?" She asked as she took a few steps closer to me, her brows etched in confusion. "Are you alright? You look disturbed...""Where's Kael?" I demanded, ignoring her questions and concerns. My impatience was evident in my tone. The second time. The second time I'm getting a blank letter. The pattern was unsettling, the lack of any threat even more so. It was unnerving."The Lycan? I think I saw him outside..." Her words trailed, before she could finish, I was already running towards the exit of the Palace, running past the surprised onlookers.As soon as I stepped out. There he was, Kael, in the courtyard with his beta standing beside him.I ran t

  • Bound by Blood, Fated to the Two Alphas    Chapter 72

    ELARA'S POVI stared at him, utterly stunned. He broke up with her? Just like that?"Why?" The word slipped out before I could stop it. "Why did you do that?"Kael's eyes darkened, his voice low and steady. "Because she was never my choice. I said I was going to make things right. I intend on doing so now, and by starting, I needed to get rid of Seraphina."I blinked, trying to wrap my head around it. "What does that even mean?"He ran a hand through his thick hair, then fixed his eyes on me with a look so serious it made my heart pound. "You know what I mean, Elara. Stop acting as if you don't. Because deep down, I know you understand exactly what I'm trying to say."I opened my mouth, but he cut me off before I could even say a word."Now might not be the prefect time," he said, vis voice rough around the edges. "But Elara, please let me speak. I have to do this, or else I'd keep living with regrets."I swallowed hard and looked away. I knew exactly what he was trying to do, and tha

  • Bound by Blood, Fated to the Two Alphas    Chapter 71

    ELARA'S POVI stared at him, unsure of what to say. Dr. Alen was the last person I wanted to encounter. Memories flooded back, bitter, painful memories of how he'd draw my blood until I nearly passed out, using me like some tool to heal others. A freak, they all called me. And he took the delight in making me suffer further.I swallowed hard as I nodded. "Hello, Dr. Alen. It's been a while.""Indeed, it has," his voice was calm, but there was something cold beneath it. "What brings you to the infirmary?""I came to treat a little boy. He had a scratch."He raised a brow, scanning the whole area. The other healers just ignored us both and continued with whatever they were doing. "What boy?" He asked, his eyes sharp as he stared at me."He just ran off, barely a minute before you entered.""Oh. Figures. I thought you came here yourself." He smirked slightly.Yeah as if. I mentally scoffed to myself. Forcing a smile, I replied. "I have no business here, why would I come?""I don't know,"

  • Bound by Blood, Fated to the Two Alphas    Chapter 70

    ELARA'S POVMy mind raced. "I...I don't know," I mumbled. "I just found it on my table in my room earlier. I thought it might be a misplaced letter or so..."His gaze narrowed. "Who sent it, Elara?"I shook my head. "I have no idea. Clara didn't say anything about a letter, so I'm just as confused as you are. She's the only one who enters my room."He let out a sigh, a weary sound that tugged at my heartstrings. Without a word, he turned and walked towards his desk, the polished wood gleaming under the soft light. Without hesitation, he unfolded the letter.I watched him, my heart pounding in my chest. What if it was a threat? Or worse? Dreadful news?The air seemed to thicken as he stared at the paper, his face slowly draining of color. My breath hitched in my throat as I watched him. "Kael? What is it? What's wrong?"He didn't answer, his gaze still frozen on the letter. I couldn't stand the suspense any longer. I pushed myself forward, stepping around the desk to stand beside him.

  • Bound by Blood, Fated to the Two Alphas    Chapter 69

    ELARA'S POVI sat on the edge of my bed, the worn quilt scratching against my skin. The silence in the room was heavy, broken only by the rhythmic tap of my fingers against the bed frame. I chewed on my bottom lip, a nervous habit I'd never quite managed to shake.Suddenly my eyes landed on a crisp white envelope that laid on the table beside my bed. Hadn't I had noticed this before? How come I'm just seeing this? My heart skipped a beat. I wasn't supposed to receive any letter...not that I was expecting one from anyone. So who could it be from?A shiver of apprehension snakes down my spine. I tried to shrug off the feeling, telling myself it was probably just a misplaced letter. Besides, if it was for me Clara would have notified me of it before she retired for the day.Could someone else had sneaked into my room? I tried to remain positive, but a nagging voice in the back of my mind. It whispered that something more than just an ordinary letter.Hesitantly, I stood up and picked up

  • Bound by Blood, Fated to the Two Alphas    Chapter 68

    ELARA'S POVThe weight of unspoken emotions pressed down on me, a suffocating blanket woven from guilt, fear, a burgeoning affection for Kael, the persistent lingering love for Ronan, and the terrifying secret of my pregnancy. I'd been running ever since I had realized the depth of my feeling for Kael- a frantic, breathless flight from a truth that threatened to shatter the carefully constructed walls I'd built around my heart against Kael.I wanted to hate him, but I couldn't. It wasn't because of the reason why he told me he did what he did. It was because I really liked him, even though I was angry and pained, I still had feelings for him. Although now my feelings for Ronan were stronger than the feelings I had for Kael, I couldn't believe that I loved both men.My stomach suddenly churned. I jolted up from my bed, rubbing my tummy.The morning sickness had now become increasingly difficult to mask. The exhaustion was relentless and even though Kael and Clara tried to support me di
