Prologue

( 19 years old Dana and Adria)

“ My heart is for him.”Adria said cheerily.“ I mean the way he looks at me each time is just so…” She placed her palm on her chest, heaving a dramatic sigh.

“ What about Damon?.” Dana questioned, altering Adria’s stance.

“ Tsk.. I’m not into him anymore. ” Adria said, scrunching her nose in disgust.

“ I thought you wanted to spend the rest of your life with him,” Dana said, twitching her lips sideways, raising her brows.

“ That was then … when I was blind in love, Now I can see that my heart is for Alden, soon-to-be the Alpha.” Adria smiled, a dreamy look on her face.

Dana’s heart flinched a bit, what if she told her Alden’s Heart was for someone else? Alden had told her they were meant for each other and yet here is Adria, her best friend believing Alden is hers. Is something wrong somewhere? Could it be that she was mistaken?

Well, Alden had told me he loves and I love him too, I can’t give up my heart for my friend, she thought.

“What if his heart is for someone else… you know you can’t force fate.” Dana shrugged.

“ Fate?.” Adria scoffed.

“I know you care about me Dana, but don’t worry this is my destiny and I will do anything to fulfill it,” Adria said with so much confidence.

Dana tried not to laugh“ You’re just being delusional.” she rolled her eyes.

Adria stopped walking and stared at Dana“What do you mean? don’t be a hater.” She said, frowning.

Dana raised her hands in mock surrender“Okay… I’m sorry, I’m not hating.”

Adria returned to smiling, clasping her hands together“I can’t wait for the moonlight feast. Alden will be there and he’s going to look at me in my pretty dress.. that will be perfect.” She giggled

She turned to look at Dana “ Who knows if the moon goddess might give us a sign.”

Dana rolled her eyes“The feast isn’t about that. The moon goddess doesn’t give mating signs at the feast Adria.”

Adria scrunched her nose.

“ I can’t wait for when we will be mated and we will become couples.” Adria giggled as she clasped her hands together spinning around like a girl in a fairy tale.

“ You know that’s for the moon goddess to decide right?.” Dana said.

“ I don’t care about what the moon goddess decides, Alden is mine and mine alone and I won’t let anyone take him away from me,” Adria said, her voice dropping lower, her tone cold and sharp.

“Well… let’s see then.”Dana shrugged trying to keep her voice calm but her mind was racing.

There was awkward silence between them for a moment, before Adria’s voice broke the silence, maintaining a cheerful tone again.

“ Come on…let’s head back, we shouldn’t be late for the Moonlight feast, we need to go dress up fast.” She said, dragging Dana’s hand away.

“ Alden needs to see in my pretty dress.” She giggled.
