ADAIRA

~

I walked with a smile on my face between my parents as they led me back to the pack square. My parents stood on either side of me like they were afraid I would run at the slightest opportunity. I wanted to, but I stayed for their sake. Even if it felt like my heart was being torn to shreds, I wouldn’t be selfish, they’ve given up so much for me, this was the least I could do to give them a better life. I would smile and pretend to be happy, I would mate Tyler even if he loathed my existence.

It was a full moon, that was the only time this kind of ceremony could be held. Fated mates could have their mating ceremonies at any time, but those like me and Tyler that weren’t fated but decided to choose each other had to mate on the night of a full moon. It was a symbolism of getting the moon Goddess’ blessing for the union.

The light of the moon always gave me comfort, and tonight was no different. I prayed to the moon Goddess for the strength to go through with this and what I would have to live through from now on. Tyler would continue to pretend that he was in love with me, but I would know that it was all lies, and that would hurt so much more. I wish I had never heard his conversation with his father. I preferred to continue living in blissful ignorance, but it was too late to make that wish.

Tyler was already at the centre of the gathering waiting. I tried to put on my best smile as I walked to him. My parents moved away from my side because this part of the ceremony required just me and Tyler. Our parents would bless our union after we had taken our blood oath and bound our souls together as mates. Tyler’s face was clear of any emotion as he watched me and it made my heart break even more. If I didn’t already know that he doesn’t want me, I would have told myself that he was just nervous.

But now, the veil of ignorance had been removed from my eyes and I could now see all the things that just didn’t add up. My smile didn’t falter till he smiled, but then I realised that he wasn’t smiling at me but at someone behind me. I turned and saw Chantel walking behind me dressed in the most beautiful gown I had ever seen. One look at her eyes and the way Tyler looked at her, I just knew, she and Tyler were mates, true mates.

Tyler walked past me to meet her and held her hand.

“This sham of a mating ceremony is off, I already have a mate.” Tyler announced to everyone.

There were gasps of surprise and murmurs erupted among the others but my eyes were glued to Chantel’s neck. There was no mistaking what I was looking at, it was a mating mark. Tyler ripped off the sweater he wore atop his shirt and I saw that he had a matching mark, they had already claimed each other, no one could separate them again, not even his father, they were bonded now.

“Tyler.” I called him and he turned to me with a look of pure hatred.

No one had ever looked at me like that before, and it shocked me to the bone.

“You’re the reason I was apart from her for so long. I don’t know how you could even believe that I wanted you, look at yourself. Everyone keeps adoing you because you have a white wolf, but you’re nothing but a weak, worthless Omega and that is all you’ll ever be.”

I didn’t realise I had taken a step back till I bumped into someone behind me. For the first time in my life, I was afraid of Tyler, he looked like he wanted to hurt me.

“Tyler!” Our Alpha bellowed and Tyler turned to face his father.

“I’m tired of you giving me stupid orders, father. I challenge you to a duel right now, it’s my time to lead.” Tyler growled.

Everyone was paralyzed with shock. An Alpha challenge was a fight to the death.

“No!” It was Tyler’s mum that spoke after several seconds of tense silence.

No matter the outcome, she would lose someone, her mate or her son. An Alpha challenge could not be rescinded, we all knew the rules. She screamed as Tyler and his father lunged at each other, transforming to their wolves in mid air before they clashed. Everyone stepped back to give them room to battle.

“This is all your fault.” Pain splintered up my arm as Chantel grabbed it and dug her nails into it.

“Everything is your fault and if Tyler dies, I will kill you too.”

“Let me go, Chantel.” I said weakly.

I couldn’t even meet her eyes, Tyler was right, I was weak, so weak.

She let me go and I went to find my parents among the crowd. I needed the comfort of my mother’s arms. As I walked, I was sneered at by different pack members. Some were bold enough to shove me, and others openly blamed me for the fight they were all witnessing. These were the same people that were bowing and smiling at me just a few minutes ago.

I found my mother and she embraced me but my father pulled me away from her.

“Don’t coddle her. She failed.” He said with a sneer.

“Papa, it wasn’t my fault, I…”

“Whose fault is it then? Mine? If only you had listened to me and got him to mate with you long ago, all this wouldn’t have happened. You’re useless. Leave here, you disgust me.”

I didn’t wait to watch the fight to the end, I ran. Tears streamed down my face and I stumbled so many times, even fell and scraped my knees once but I didn’t stop running. All I heard was Tyler’s voice, my father’s voice, telling me how worthless I am, how weak, how useless. I fell again when I got to the pack boundary, my whole body ached and my wolf form took over to save me from dying of exhaustion.

I howled to the full moon with every bit of pain in my heart, then I left my pack. There was nothing there for me anymore.

I was too distracted to notice the flare of light that moved from my body to the ground, or the rumble deep in the earth that seemed to be calling out to me, and the foreboding presence that reached out but was too far to touch me... for now

  • ALPHA GAVRAEL   EPILOGUE

    EPILOGUE ~ Using up so much power drained both me and Gavrael, and we both passed out almost immediately after. We didn’t wake up till after two whole days because our bodies shut down to heal and recuperate. When we finally woke up, we discovered that using so much power had broken the hold of the third souls we each had. I no longer possessed Selene’s soul and Gavrael no longer possessed the soul of the demon king. Their essence had returned to the volcano realm after their souls split from ours. They couldn’t be killed, she was a goddess and he was a god, but it would take a long time for them to recreate a physical form. For now, I was just happy that we would no longer be the victims of an age long war. Then came another problem, the issue of Gavrael’s possessiveness. He was no longer under the control of the demon king, but now that he knew I was pregnant, his wolf was just as easily pissed off as he was before. It was usual for the mates of pregnant females to become very ter

  • ALPHA GAVRAEL   FINAL BATTLE

    GAVRAEL ~ He calls himself Zephyr, and seeing him manhandle my mate made me angry. But my anger wasn’t enough to break myself from his hold and regain control of my body. “Kill them all, I’ll deal with her. I could only watch as he took Adaira away from the battlefield, knowing that she was their only hope to win the battle against his beasts. “How does it feel having so much power but being unable to use it? You trapped me for centuries, took my memories, took my powers, kept me in this mortal body. This is just a slight taste of that. So tell me how it feels to hate what’s happening but not be able to do anything about it?” I could feel his amusement as she tried in vain to free herself from his grip. He was enjoying her struggles and her helplessness. I couldn’t even reach out to her to at least let her know that despite everything, I was still in here even if I’ve been pushed so far deep in my subconscious that I didn’t know the way out. But he had put an impenetrable barrie

  • ALPHA GAVRAEL   NEW LIFE

    ADAIRA ~ Gavrael is gone and there is no way for me to get to him. I wanted to use my powers to get across to the nether realm but Theia warned me not to do so because I would never be able to defeat him in his realm, he was stronger there. Our best chance of winning this battle is here in this realm, which means we have to wait for Gavrael’s return. By the looks of things, he would not be returning as my mate but as the demon king, with an army meant to obliterate us all. “There has to be something else we can do.” I said to Theia after waiting for an hour with no sign of Gavrael or any danger. My wolf was restless because my bond to Gavrael was so faint now that I had to search deep before I could feel it. I was terrified. What if the demon king somehow finds a way to sever our bond, how would I be able to reach my mate and bring him back? “You need to calm down. Your restlessness is affecting your pack. They’re already dreading the fight we all have coming, and they only stayed

  • ALPHA GAVRAEL   RETURN TO THE NETHER REALM

    GAVRAEL ~Heat, rage and pain. Those were the only emotions flowing through me at this moment. It was like my blood had been exchanged with lava and my head was being drilled open by a thousand nails. I felt the power of the full blood moon before it even rose and cast its reddish hue over the earth. This past week, I had to stay away from everyone except Adaira because I was losing my temper at the slightest provocation. I knew it was just because of what was coming that my restraint was shitty but at the same time, I couldn’t control myself which led to my isolation in order to protect everyone from me. Adaira was the only one whose presence I could tolerate even in those moments. And the second those rays of light from the full blood moon touched the earth, everything became worse.Heat, rage, pain. Nothing else mattered but these, and the demon whose soul was bound to me feasted on them delightfully. He was much stronger now and he was actively fighting me for control of my body.

  • ALPHA GAVRAEL   HE LEFT

    ADAIRA~I was eating more than normal out of anxiety. It was still better than worrying myself to death and overthinking everything though. My sleeping schedule was also wack but that was understandable. The full blood moon would rise tomorrow night and I just couldn’t bring myself to sleep even if it still was hours away. My wolf on the other hand was calm and mostly silent. After the night of the pack bonding ceremony where we all shifted to wolf form and ran as one pack to strengthen the pack bonds, she hadn’t made a push to be set free which was unusual. Usually, if I stayed for more than two days without shifting, she would be angsty and restless, whining to be set free, and I would have to shift and run even if for a few minutes. But it’s been days without shifting and she was still calm, I had no idea why and I was too preoccupied with everything else happening to try and figure it out. Maybe she understood the complexity of the situation we were in and was just trying to help

  • ALPHA GAVRAEL   PREPARATION; COUNTDOWN TO THE END

    ADAIRA ~ It took two days of mating almost all round the clock for my heat to die down and for the both of us to regain our senses. And as this problem was solved, another problem presented itself, our lives were just a myriad of problems nowadays but who’s counting. When we returned to the pack after my heat passed, almost all the other packs had come to join us, just two were left and they were expected to arrive in a few hours. But as I passed through the crowd, all the males were still attuned to my scent even though I was no longer in heat. Females were also drawn to my scent but it didn’t make them lust after me like it was confusing the males. It was a big problem because it was causing chaos and it was making everyone restless, and I had no idea why it was happening. In fact, it seemed to be even worse now than when I was actually in heat. Sage wolves had also been arriving from the human towns close by. They were wary but they were all put together in one house to await my
