“Nice to meet you, Azren,” she spoke softly, but under the elegant smile and dress, I could see her deceit.“Pleasure to meet you!” I spoke, clenching my teeth, and she pressed my hands while smiling.“Don't cause any trouble!” Kade spoke, looking at me. He banged the cup while Tasha held his hands. Kade noticed my uncomfortableness and held my hands despite Tasha's efforts to stop him.“Ladies and gentlemen, I officially present my Luna!” he spoke with utmost pride.“Which one, Alpha?” a voice echoed in the crowd.Before he could answer, Tasha fell down, drawing all the attention towards her. Kade carried her as anger burned in my soul. I didn't know her, but I certainly knew she was of no good.“I'm coming!” Kade answered, but when he went up, none of us saw him again till the party ended.I wanted to go and bang at the door since jealousy was killing me, but I decided to maintain my position as the Luna and gain the trust of the pack, especially because they all lost in on Kade.Af

With Kael gone, I could no longer control my curiosity. I went outside to meet Kade, who looked sad but still confused.“What truth am I supposed to know?” I asked quietly.“Nothing. Get ready for a party tonight,” he dismissed me, walking in the opposite direction. But I wasn't a quitter. I rushed to block his path.“I guess we're talking about my life, and I want to know exactly what kind of game you forced me to play!” I demanded, shocking even myself with the audacity.“I said there's nothing to say!” he snapped, staring at me through his blindfold like he could actually see me. I turned to walk away.“Let me guess—you’re going to use my blood to cleanse yourself!” I said, sounding like a wounded warrior.“I might be cursed, but I’m not doomed to be a vampire!” he responded without looking back.“Then what sacrifice are you all talking about?” I asked, my voice nearly failing me.“Are you really sure you want to know?” he asked, turning and walking straight toward me with a pace t

He lifted me to the throne room and carefully placed me on his work table. I thought he wanted to consummate, but instead, he reached for my hip.A perfectly drawn black rose petal tattoo emerged. He smiled—the rose tattoo meant I was getting over the fear of him. He leaned in and stole a kiss, his tongue testing every corner of my lips, and I couldn't help but kiss back, rekindling the crush I once had.For the first time, I saw his smile. He was blindfolded, but he acted as if he could see everything happening. He stood a little far off as he unbuttoned his shirt and turned his back to me.“I want you to check slowly on my back for the snake tattoo,” he spoke.“Do not leave out any small detail,” he added.I looked carefully at the snake tattoo, which was very huge, covering his back—but not as before. It was different this time; the color wasn't purely dark but a little faded.“It's faded,” I spoke, not understanding what was going on.For the first time, he smiled, leaning to give

I sat down on my bed, afraid to sleep, for I didn't know if I would wake up the next morning. I dozed off yet fought it, put my legs in cold water, even went to the window, but my fight was nothing.Suddenly, the opened window closed, and it became too windy— a little too windy for my liking. Then I felt it— a sudden shift of air, the spirit of death. Then someone started to sing in the shadows, a lullaby.“Hush little baby, don't you cry, Mama's here, just close your eyes and dream of snow!” the song repeated as sleep became a tough song for me to fight.“Spare me, please!” I spoke defeatedly as sleep covered my eyes.“I thought you were the chosen one?” the spirit whispered as the old woman I saw earlier appeared out of the shadows.As I wiped my eyes to see her clearly, she quickly changed into something dark and tall, looking like a shadow, her claws long enough to pierce a lion.“Alpha Kade doesn't deserve you,” it whispered, shifting position in the room as I struggled not to sl

I looked at him, my mind refusing to believe what just happened, and now he was here in my bedroom to consummate his deed.“Why didn't you bite me?” I asked, hoping to get answers, but instead, he looked at me with no hope.“Go and change,” he said, looking at the black lingerie on the bed, and fear came upon me as I started to tremble, trying to remember the witches' redemption code because I needed it sooner.“I'm… a… virgin,” I said, my teeth clenching against each other.He woke up, but instead of being cold and helping me to remove my stained wedding dress, he leaned forward to remove my necklace. I stepped back, afraid of him. He just chuckled and removed my necklace.He guided me to the bathroom to take my shower, and when I refused to shower, he stepped in. I tried covering up, but he just smiled and shook his head.“I'm your Alpha now, dummy. Besides, no need to hide anything, as you'll be dead soon,” he spoke and reached for the soap, spreading it evenly on my skin. I didn't

I walked down beside him as the people at the party seemed scared that maybe the Alpha had forced them to be here.But for my parents' safety, I had to keep calm as he walked me down the aisle, which scared me since my parents were the ones to be doing that, but I had no option.The moonlight shone on us to symbolize the Moon Goddess' blessings, but I could tell that this wasn't a blessing but a curse. His black eyes stared at me and at everyone.“Do you take me to be your Alpha in death and in the next afterlife?” he spoke, with all the elders fearing him. He had to head over the mating himself.I nodded while tears fell from my eyes. The pack poured black flower petals on me instead of clapping, none of them with a happy face. Since it was mourning my funeral, no one knew if I'd wake up tomorrow alive."I, Alpha Kade, pronounce you as my Luna," he spoke, and those words twisted my intestines, nearly making me vomit.“Bring the cup,” he spoke, and one member walked towards us.He loo
