Lukas’s POV

I march out of our room towards mine, her words still stabbing at me.

Words that can’t be farther from the truth.

If only she understood what I’ve been through since I was born into this life— this very life that she thinks is a sanctuary filled gold and Honey.

I push my door open, storming inside and settling myself at the edge of my bed.

I exhale, trying to find my calm so I don’t lose my mind.

I wish she were right. I wish being born into the Royal household men’s the freedom and lifestyle everyone around me thought but they had no idea.

They had no idea of the cracks deep within the circle they envied so much.

And I wish I really didn’t know what it felt like to lose someone.

I begin removing the buttons on my shirt hastily but stop halfway as I scoff again.

“I really do wish I didn’t have the memory of someone but I do.” I murmur to myself as I fall back onto my bed.

Memories I had locked away, began flushing into my mind.

The memory of the mask over the alpha king.

  • FATED TO THE ALPHA'S SHADOW   Chapter 25

    Elena’s POVThe moment the alpha King walks out, I run into my room but before I can shut the door, his feet block it and he pushes his way in.I sighed, walking further into the room. “I know you’re the alpha but still, is it right for you to be barging into my room at will like this?”“I’m glad you remember that I’m the alpha, which means you know this room and even the occupant all belong to me.”I roll my eyes, standing in front of the mirror, still plagued by the words of the alpha King.His words are sucking the energy out of me and I just can’t bear the weight of pretense anymore and let the soft graceful Luna mask wear off on its own.After all, we are now behind closed doors and I can manage to get a few words in.“Hmmm.” he crosses his arms over his chest.“So… you’re done acting like a little angel?”I roll my eyes again, making sure he doesn’t see it. “I wasn’t acting like an angel, I was only acting the way I knew you wanted.”His brows furrow. “Wanted? So you’re admitt

    Elena’s POVI turn to him quickly, ready to throw questions about whatever was just whispered to him and I see that he’s expecting it. His side eyes are already looking towards my direction so at the last minute I decide it isn’t worth it.Now isn’t the time.Throwing questions at him won't change the situation; instead, it will only rile him up in public.There were other places and time to do things like that.To be able to get what I want, I need him to have trust in my public behavior.Only when he trusts my public behavior would I get certain rights. I can leave the madness for our private time. I have to seem unproblematic in his eyes— that is the only way I can begin to strategize and get what I want out of him.So I take a sip of water before lifting my fork delicately. “This soup is so tasty.” I say to one of the elder‘s wives sitting beside me who smiles in return.“Oh Absolutely, Luna. Those omegas have something they’re good at after all.”I stiffen but quickly manage to

  • FATED TO THE ALPHA'S SHADOW   Chapter 23

    Elena’s POV The doors open to the council hall and every head turns to me as I take slow steady steps in. Chin up just like he had instructed."This is what makes you the perfect luna,” he had said to me early this morning.I feel his presence even before I set my eyes on him. The alpha energy, heavy and territorial, brushing against my skin like a warning. But I refused to shrink.Today, I play the role he asked for... the role of the perfect luna.The one they all expect. I lift my chain higher, my steps gliding. The silk of my dress whispers as I cross the hall and I can practically feel his eyes tracing every measured movement, possibly looking for any mistakes he can use against me later. But I don't give him any. I spent the last few days, and especially last night, perfecting my walk and behavior around others—something fitting for my new status. The way I hold my shoulders, the softness of my almost non-existent smile and the obedience painted across my face like a mask,

  • FATED TO THE ALPHA'S SHADOW   Chapter 22

    Lukas’s POVI stand watching her carefully.Every movement, every breath, every flicker in her eyes. She’s desperate, I can feel it. Desperate to free her friend from my sharp claws. And I enjoy it. It is a little price to pay for all the unnecessary stress she has put me through in the past.And now… There’s something else.A shift in her posture, a slight sway of her hips and a deliberate, lowered gaze.She wants to offer me something, something that she thinks will make me bend.Or does she.“So you say you know what I want. And what could that be?”She swallows, trying hard to put on that brave face that keeps eluding her.“Yeah, uhm…like I said earlier, I am willing to do whatever you want.” I smirk. “Really?” She nods, without looking at me.“And what is it you think I want?”Her lashes flutter. “Uh—hh, I don’t know but anything will go.”“Hmm.” I step forward.“Are you sure if I name my price, you can pay?”She blinks, walking back and dropping her head to the ground. “Uh

    Elena’s POV“Wait.” I call out, stopping him in his tracks. He stands by the door—arms crossed as if waiting for me to do something.“We need to talk.” I say softly.“Okay, about what again.”I steady myself, my pulse beating so fast, I start thinking my heart will explode into tiny pieces.The memory of the events of the past few minutes didn’t do much to ease the tension.I take a deep breath again, not willing to back down even though he has already shown that he probably won’t change his mind, I’m not ready to back down either. “Uhm, it’s uhm, it’s about Tess.” I began, praying that my voice manages to remain steady.“Mhmm. What about her? I thought we already had this conversation?”“I mean we did.” I move closer but remain careful not to cross a boundary. “But it didn’t quite go well and I believe I’m part to blame for that.”“Really?”“Oh yes, I should never have spoken to you in the way I did. I should never have angered you.”“Okay…”“So—o,” I move closer, each step makin
