Adrian's POV

I just knew I had to save her, as soon as I saw her my wolf became really restless and this hasn't happened to me in a while now.

She was the one, the person has been looking for, for many years now and now I found her but she was on the verge of death "could the moon goddess be more cruel?" I asked myself.

"So how is she now?" I asked the pack doctor for the thousandth time.

"She's is still unconscious alpha, she is not responding to treatment. It's as if she is holding herself back from waking up" the pack doctor replied me with a calm expression on his face.

Looking at the face of this lady, she had a calm expression on her face even though it was a bit pale, her raven dark hair which was so long spread on the bed giving of her surreal beauty.

"How did your life get to this?" I asked no one in particular staring at the clear space.

My mind drifted off back to three days ago when I was having my crazy episode.

**FLASHBACK**

"It's the full moon tonight hope everything has been prepared" Kyle my beta and adopted brother asked the maids while I sat down in my desk working on some documents.

"Yes sir, I have prepared the Alpha's special room for him, I've made sure that the curtains are black as you requested and the other maids are going to stay away  from there" she replied him sounding a bit worried.

"You don't have to banter her with so much questions Kyle, she has been working with us for years and she knows the rules" I said with a frown on my face.

Kyle has always been so protective of my safety and it's becoming a bit annoying.

"I already know that Adrian but you know how you become on this night and I don't want anyone going around spreading false news about you" he replied waving the maid off as she left with a bow.

"There's no need to worry, just ensure that you take all the safety measures and don't let me out of the room no matter what" I said to him finally looking up from what I was doing.

"You know Adrian all of your suffering would end if we can get hold of that woman and break your curse" he said with a concern expression in his face.

"I'm not sure such a woman existed or I would have found her long ago, let's not talk about this anymore I have a meeting with the elders the afternoon" I said dismissively making kyle frown a bit before he spoke.

"You are not suppose to be going out too much today, you can continue that tomorrow" he said.

"Well this is important" I said before walking out of the room leaving him alone.

I got to the meeting room where the elders where, I didn't want the meeting to take long or consumed much of my time so I asked the elders to go straight to the point.

One of the elder was busy ready the letter sent to us by another kingdom when I suddenly started getting hot, I looked through the window only to see the moon was already half way out.

I stood up from my chair, my wolf was already getting restless. The meeting with the elders had been a blur, my mind preoccupied with the full moon rising that night. I couldn't shake off the feeling that something was off tonight, it as if my  wolf was trying to break free, as if it was sensing danger closeby.

I excused myself from the meeting and walked into my special room, a place where I could let my wolf run free without causing harm to anyone.

As soon as I stepped inside, the pain hit me hard making me growling in pain.

My wolf was clawing to get out, to run free under the light of the full moon.

I screamed in agony, sweat pouring down my face as I tried to contain the beast within me. But it was no use. The pain was too much, and I felt like my wolf was going to rip out of my body.

Just as I thought I was going to lose control, a bright light filled the room. I shielded my eyes, and when I opened them again, the moon goddess stood before me.

Her silver hair cascaded down her back like a river of moonlight, and her silver dress was shining lighting up everything around us.

"Adrian," she said, her voice like music. "The one you seek is close by. Leave your pack and go to the waterfalls. You will find who you want there."

Before I could talk she had already disappeared leaving me a bit confused, thinking about what she said I didn't hesitate.

I let my wolf take over, and we sprinted to the waterfalls in full speed. When I arrived, I saw her. She was half-dead, floating in the water. I pulled her to my arms, and she muttered a single word: "Mate."

I felt calm and relief, she was still breathing, I felt a sense of belonging. She was really the one I had been searching for all these years.

I felt her stir touching my arm gently. She was finally awake, and I could see the fear in her eyes. I knew I had to keep her safe and protected at all costs.

I leaned forward, trying to calm her down. "It's okay," I said softly. "You're safe now. I'm not going to hurt you."

She kept screaming not listening to what I had to say, she was suffering from a panic attack. She thinks I'm her enemy, I knew I had to calm her down.

"You are getting really better than I expected Elysia" a familiar voice said during my training making me and adrain stop in our tracks. "What are you doing here?" Adrain asked looking really angry while he looked at alpha Tyler. I was short of words I can't believe that this man would have to guys to come here talk more of see me. "I was having a meeting nearby and I decided to pay a visit to the king and his would be queen" Tyler said looking at me wearily.

    Elysia's POV I walked into my room thinking about what the alpha had said, he confirmed that he killed someone but the alpha didn't seem like the one who could do such a thing without a reason. Sarah came in with smiles on her face "what are you doing here my lady I thought you would be training with the king now" she asked me looking a bit surprised. "The alpha has been caught up with something he needs to attend to something, he will be back later" I replied her. Trying to change the topic I asked "why are you looking all smilingly and giggling?" She looked away shyly not wanting to answer me. "It's not my lady" she said playing with the knot of her dress. "Then tell me about it" I pressed. "It's just that kings beta Kyle, I think he is really handsome and calm" she said. I had noticed her staring at him at the party last night and he also was staring at her looking away when she turned. "Do we have someone in love her" I said teasing her harder. "No my lady, what are

    Elysia's POV I felt something was wrong with the way he left the dance floor, was something really wrong or was he hiding something from me. Those thoughts filled my mind making me unable to concentrate on anything till the party ended. Going back to my chambers I sat down in front of the mirror while Sarah helped me clean off my make up, I was drained and stressed out. My mind wandered to what happened when I was in the restroom. A old woman came to meet me looking all tattered and unkempt. "You think you are getting married to a good man but did you know about his past?" she asked me making me dumbfounded. "Ask him... Ask him about my daughter Mia, ask him what he did to her" she said glaring at me angrily confusing me. I was so sure that I had never met her any where before yet she came to me accusing the alpha of things that I don't get "Ask him why he took her, ask him why he did after he claimed to love her, ask him why he...." She was about to say something but the guard

    Adrain's POV I was so surprised by the guts of Tyler and Alicia, he had come here to take my bride away from me that would never happen, after all what he had to to her he thinks he still has a chance with her. "So what are you planning to do now?" I asked her trying to know her decision. "I'm not ready to get married now but I would be happy if you could engage me right now so the people won't question our relationship" she said looking apologetic. I felt a bit hurt by her words but I brushed it off, I knew it wasn't easy for her to accept all the changes that happened in her life. She needs time to be able to adjust to all the things that happened and the ways of my pack."If that's what you want, I would readily accept it" I replied her watching the way she smiled. It felt like the world melted around me after her smile. It was the forced one she gave when she first came here but a genuine and cool smile that enhance her beauty. "You look more beautiful with this smile on" I

    Elysia's pov. The room went still after Alpha Adrian made the announcement. I could feel My heart beating fast in my chest, I hadn't expected it at all. Right now, the music has stopped, the air felt heavy, everyone was staring at us, alpha Adrian and I. “This is not a decision made lightly,” Adrian said. “And though she has not yet given me her final answer, I will wait, for as long as she needs.”His eyes met mine. “I’ll wait,” he repeated, softer this time. I looked out at the crowd, there were so many faces, so many eyes. But then my eyes landed on Tyler. His face was full of confusion, anger... and something else. Regret, maybe.Alicia on the other hand looked like she had swallowed something bitter.I stood taller, my shoulders raised high, this was what I wanted, for them to see that I was no longer the same person they knew. “Thank you,” I said, loud enough for everyone to hear. “Thank you for believing in me.”The applause began again, louder this time. The music picke

    Elysia's pov. The grand hall sparkled with golden lights as music played softly in the background while warriors and nobles filled the space, laughing, drinking, and dancing. I could perceive the sweet smell in the air, it smelled of wine, roasted meat and something else, something sweet but I just couldn't seem to recall the name. Everything about tonight screamed celebration, but inside, my heart beat like a drum, not because of the celebration, but because of the fact that Adrian had also invited Tyler and Alicia. Those bastards. Sarah's words rang in my head as I stood near the center of the hall, my gown flowing around my legs like water. It was deep red, hugging my body and showing my bare shoulders, I didn't need to be told how pretty I was. My hair had been twisted into curls and pinned up with silver pieces shaped like tiny stars. Sarah had specifically helped with this, even after telling her not to worry, that it was the job of the maids, she had insisted. And righ
