Alpha NiyolThat moment that I kissed her in her dazed state this morning felt normal like every other morning. But that would now be one of my most cherished moments ever. It kept replaying all over my mind.There wasn't a single life in her. The only woman I loved my entire life was gone right before my eyes and I couldn't protect her. Feeling frustrated, I growled loudly in anger.Though I held back the tears, the pain was eating me up. My growl was so heartbreaking that I know the pack members within the palace must have felt it.She was supposed to be my mate and I was to be her shield. I was supposed to be her umbrella in times of rain. Her rock and her shield. And yet… yet, I had missed the signs. We slept together almost every night making love and feeling our hearts. Growing fonder each day yet, I still missed all the signs.How could I be so careless?It's been five years since we got married. Although we had been trying to bear a child, just for the sake of the throne, I n
NIYOL'S POV Staring at my mother with eyes as dark as the night, I tried very hard to control my emotions from going berserk. "What…did you just say?" I asked with fire in my heart. "It's true. Why would she…" My mother started, but I cut her off with a murderous glare. "How could you say that about your daughter in-law? I thought you once took her as your daughter?" "I did, but that was before all this started." "Mother… it wasn't not her fault. Do you know if the fault came from me?" "I know you will come to her defense. But she is dead already, Niyol." "Even if she is dead, it doesn't make you disrespect her!" "It's the bitter truth, Niyol. Do you know how much your father and I had to endure from the people around?" "And do you know how much she had to endure these five years?" "What did she have to endure?" My mother scoffed. "She had to endure being called names by her fellow women and mothers like you. She cried every single day and at night I had to he
BETA CHESTER POVIf anyone could describe the pain that Alpha Niyol was passing through, I would be the right person. I knew how much Luna Erika meant to him.We grew up together and I watched as their friendship blossomed into an undying love after they discovered they were fated to be mates.They loved each other selflessly. There was no day they won't be seen cuddling or strolling together with their hands wrapped tightly. The alpha lived for his Luna. Every second of his life, he always included a thought for her.I am not just his Beta but I am also his friend and confidant. I listened to how he talked about Luna Erika's grief and how he wished he could find a solution. The insults were becoming increasingly unbearable.I could also see the reason why the Luna Queen decided to end her own life. The anger and whispers were long overdue in her chest. The depression was eating her up gradually until it swallowed her sanity.Maybe she was tired of the whispers and curses. She must be
KOKO'S POVI opened my eyes slowly to the blinding effect of light piercing through my face. I quickly shut it back, but I was brought back to reality, by the slight pain on my shoulder.My head was wrapped around a thick bandage even though my left arm was left out. Though the pains weren't severe, I still couldn't recall what really happened to me.Where was I? Why am I lying on the bed with a bandaged head? I asked a series of questions in my head without getting a reply.The last thing I remembered was being hit by a force and I fell to the ground before losing consciousness. I looked around the room I was in and I could tell it was a hospital ward.As I battled with my thoughts, the door was flung open and a man with white overall coat walked in with two slightly chubby women. I assume he must be the doctor."You are finally awake. That's good because we were about to take off the bandages. Nurse, go on." the man said, giving the women a signal.I waited patiently as they removed
GAD'S POVI watched as my beloved girlfriend's body, was lowered down into the cold lonely grave. I couldn't believe I finally lost Hanola to the cold hands of death. I let my tears drop on my cheek, not minding the people around. This wasn't supposed to be Hanola. She wasn't supposed to die.How could death snatch the only thing that kept,e me breathing away? How could death be so cruel to me? I looked around and saw Hanola's mother crying uncontrollably. I watched as many people gathered around to mourn her. She was supposed to be my Luna. They were supposed to come and celebrate with me, not mourn!My anger was rising so high that I felt like killing someone. Not just anyone, but that ugly bitch! How could she run away? How could she leave Hanola to die?Where was she? If I ever caught her, I wouldn't let her off! She must pay for the death of Hanola! After the funeral service, I was so broken that I decided to rest for a few days.I was thinking of the past one week that we look
DONNA'S POVI tried holding back my rage, but I just couldn't. I wished I had just killed her with my bare hands when I just gave birth to her. At least I wouldn't be having this pain and disgrace of being the mother to an ugly cursed girl.As much I tried to reject her, I can't change the blood flowing through our veins. I was her mother and she would always be my daughter even if I rejected her.Koko would always be the curse I had to bear all the days of my life. She would always remind me of that reckless night I had with her father, Miko Magnus.As I wept uncontrollably on the floor, my mind lingered back to when all of this started. I never wanted this. This wasn't the life I wanted for myself but the Moon goddess had it planned otherwise.I was amongst the most beautiful girls as at the time of Gad's father, Alpha Jace Brown. All the girls dreamt of being his mate and I was no exception. I was full of pride and was very sure that he would definitely be my mate.Afterall, we are
Donna's POVI widened my eyes in shock at the trick of the Moon goddess. What was the fucking meaning of this? I was so angry that I refused to utter the word that I was supposed to.My eyes darted to where Alpha Brown was and I saw a sight that got my heart crashing into pieces. This can't be true! Maybe I should close my eyes again!I closed my eyes and opened it, but it was still the same thing! I was totally broken and angry. How could the moon goddess do this to me?How could she mate Alpha Jace Brown to Sophia? How could she disappoint me! All my longings were in vain. And to punish me further, she paired me with the lowly Gamma!How could she pair me with such ugly thing? I don't want anyone but the alpha! I was so enraged that I left the village square without waiting for the other entertainment.I cried in the house for more than a week. My parents had to force me to eat, but I refused. I knew it wouldn't make any difference, but I was hoping to see a miracle. On a particula
DONNA'S POVWhen the drunk woman looked up, she saw a man brutally breaking the bones of those thugs that wanted to take advantage of her. Although she was drunk, somehow, she trusted the man. She felt safe and calm within.Donna watched as the man broke the arms of each and every one of them before they quickly fled from him. Her beautiful eyes looking at him as a hero. Drawing closer to him, she noticed the face was a little blurry but still smiled broadly at him. Clasping his arms, Donna drew him closer to herself."You…are…very strong! You beat up…all those stupid…foolish people! Come, I will reward you…" Donna told him, bringing him closer for a kiss.Knowing that she was drunk, he gently evaded her touch. He didn't want her to misunderstand him. But Donna wasn't happy to be rejected. She was so pissed off by his behavior."Hey! Don't you like…me? I thought you wanted me as your mate? Why are you avoiding now? Ha! You don't love me too?" Donna said, slurring in her words. "It's
