“Ok fine. Let’s go.” I agreed and got up from my chair.
His face curved into a smile and he flee from there happily.
I walked outside and took my feet toward her room, which was situated in the left wing of my mansion.
My packhouse encompasses a large area of our pack.
I don’t live here alone.
Most of my ranked members share this mansion with me, or you can say I let them stay here to give respect.
But I have my personal area where no one can enter without my permission.
My Luna stayed on the left wings of the mansion where I cover the main building of the mansion.
None of my Luna has got a place in this main compound as I have kept it exclusively for my personal use and I only intend to share it with my mate.
Even if my life remained cursed and I could never find her, I will let no one taint her place in my life let alone in my mansion.
It will only belong to her.
Whenever I will find her, I will let her arrange her house as she wants.
But one thing I was very sure of. I won’t let her go away from me ever as my Luna left me.
I will try my best to protect her.
If I will have to fight with the entire world, even if with my fate I will die while keeping her alive.
My life, my Alpha hierarchy nothing matters in front of her.
When I reached her room, the maid opened the door for me.
Rose was lying there in her bed like a lifeless person.
Her face was pale white like paper, her beautiful brown hair has lost its life even her skin has lost its luster and glow.
She has lost a good amount of weight in these few days.
I am seeing her after months and her facial beauty was not there anymore.
She has transformed from a graceful lady to a person I barely could recognize.
Her face has got wrinkles like an old lady there were dark circles below her eyes and her lips were dry.
Though I was angry with her because she pulled such a disgraceful stunt looking at her lying like this makes me feel pity for her.
“Alpha.” She called me in her low voice and only uttering this short word makes her cough violently.
I looked at the maid, frowning, and she ran to offer her water.
She sipped a little and the maid help her sit up, leaning her back on the headboard.
Settling her properly the maid left, giving us privacy.
“You wanted to see me for the last time?” I asked, standing in the middle of the room.
When she noticed I was not going to approach her, her eyes dimmed.
Yet she tried to take a chance and call me close with her hand forwarding her hand.
Though I was not willing to show her any affection, I agreed to give her a chance, and I walked toward her and sat in a chair that was kept along her bed.
She must have ordered the maid to arrange it for me.
After all, she expected I would hear her for the last time.
“Alpha, I know you were angry because I took that step. But I was helpless.” She explained, looking away from me.
Her gaze was distant, and it looked like she was in great pain.
But I was not a little interested in her explanation because I was angry with her.
When we agreed to this companionship, she knew what was my thought about this bond.
She came here as my Luna and I have promised nothing that can give her hope that I will love her.
I thought she agreed with this deal and was happy living here.
She was getting provided with every necessary thing and I never mistreated them though I have never taken them as my mate.
So why did she need to take a drastic step and humiliate me?
I had taken her responsibility and I would have provided her with everything even if I would find my mate in the future.
Then why did she need to do this?
“You knew I would never fall for you. I have cleared this matter even before I mated with you. Then why you are expecting me to change?” I expressed my frustration.
Though I knew I have done nothing wrong, her step make me feel inferior.
It looked like I was bullying her.
Which was not the truth.
This feeling was not only bitter about our relationship I despised her.
That’s why I never came to meet her in these few months.
“Alpha, you won’t understand. You knew my mate died before I met you. That’s why my dad wanted to secure my future. Because I lost my hope of living life.” She said.
I know her mate died in a war, and I have accepted her only because of that reason.
I never wanted to come between mate bonds.
The bond is too sacred for someone to mess with.
Even my previous mate Maria and Rim were mateless.
“But you didn’t know why I agreed to this proposal.” She said, and that makes me look at her with a surprised expression.
We have never talked like this and tried to search our hearts as our relationship was only based on needs and benefits.
“Why?” I asked curiously.
“Because I fall for you at first sight.” She confessed, but her confession was a great shock for me.
We were together for almost three years, but I never know she had this type of thought about me.
“I thought I would make you fall for me. I was beautiful, graceful, and soft and I love you with all my heart. I thought you will move someday.” She sighed in defeat and a tear rolled down her eyes.
“But I was stupid. Neither I could move your heart nor god bless us with our pup. So instead of getting close, we fall apart. But after these three years, the situation made me realize how wrong I was. This thing was killing me from the inside. And that day, those feelings get over me and I couldn’t control my emotion.” She admitted, and I noticed a hint of guilt in her eyes.
“I thought maybe it was better to end my life than live in this despair.” Her eyes held truth and though I sympathized with her I would never want to change our life.
I am committed to my mate, and this was the only truth of my life.
Nothing can change this commitment.
I know she has tried everything to move my heart. But it only craved for my mate. No other girl could ever get a place here because this heart inside my heart has never beat for anyone.
With them, my relationship was only physical. My heart never agreed with all this.
If I was not desperate for an heir and not wanted to strengthen my pack, I would have never taken them as my Luna, even if I had to spend my life alone.
I was sad for her, but I was always loyal to my emotion. I can’t help her with this.
“You know, love can’t be forced,” I said, and she gave me a smile that was laced with pain.
I know she was suffering, but I was suffering too.
I was waiting for someone whom I don’t even know.
My only hope was to keep my heartbeat and with this empty heart how can I love someone?
“I know. That’s why I took my step back. But can I ask something from you? I won’t ask for anything more.” She added the last part hurriedly with fear. I won’t agree.
I have always tried my best to fulfill their wish, and this time was no different, too.
“If it’s not my heart, everything in this pack is yours,” I said, and she gave a self-mocking smile.
“But I wanted only that. What an irony.” Another tear slipped from her eyes.
Her tears were making me sad, but I didn’t stop them. I know that somehow I was involved in making her cry.
I couldn’t give her what she wanted. I have no power over that.
So I don’t deserve to take away her right of crying too.
“Don’t worry I won’t want that today. But can you stay the night with me? I want to sleep in your arm for the last time.” She asked me.
I know she won’t be alive for long and it won’t be the first time we will share intimacy.
Still, this time her word made me hesitate.
It felt like I would betray my mate if I do this.
This is not the first time I have felt that.
I have felt that every time whenever I have spent private moments with my Luna.
Because this was the right of my mate, which I was giving to them because of my duty toward my pack.
But I couldn’t make my heart deny her last wish. I took a deep breath to calm my mind and nodded. I weak smile formed on her face and how her eyes lit up I know it meant the world to her. “Let me change and I will join you in bed, we can sleep together,” I said and get up without giving her any time to respond. I called a maid and ordered her to prepare Rose for bed and then return to my room. I strip off my clothes and stand below the shower. I close my eyes, holding the shower wall for support, and let the water slide down my naked body. I didn’t know why, but I was not liking this thing. Though I was angry with rose her sad and frail face was coming in front of my eyes, making me feel guilty. Did I do wrong while pulling them into my mess? If I wouldn’t take them as my Luna and wait for my mate, was it the right thing to do? Though I have nothing to do with their death somehow the curse was responsible for taking their life, which I was unaware of. Though I have nothing
Lilia’s P.O.V. I woke up in my lavish bed in a very lavish room of the Blood Stone pack. I was living here for the last four years, but this place never felt like home. It can never be because I was living like a cannery in a golden cage. My pack Rocky Heels was attacked by the alpha of the Blood Stone pack four years back. We thought we will lose everything in his war, but the alpha’s eyes fell on me, and he wanted me for himself. He offered my dad to hand me over to him and he would let him remain alpha in return but under his guidance. My dad thought it would be great as he won’t have to sacrifice his pack and title of alpha. So he sacrificed me. I also didn’t object because as a daughter of the alpha I had some duty toward my pack. And I would be glad to sacrifice my life for the sake of my pack. But the alpha kept me locked in the packhouse of Blood Stone pack as I was still underage. I was fourteen years then and now I will be eighteen in two days. Alpha Ezekiel, th
“Luna, Alpha is waiting for you downstairs. Guests have arrived and the auspicious time will start soon.” One of my personal maids came to inform me. Hearing her word, my heart skipped a beat, and it felt like my life is close to its ending. I wanted to turn around and flee from this place, but I was helpless. “Give me some minutes. I will be there.” I said, and she left after bowing to me. In an hour, the moon will be at its highest point and then they will perform the ceremony. My Luna ceremony. Which will bind me to this pack and also to Ezekiel. It will wipe away the power of my mate bond and will bind me with Ezekiel forever. If I would have been an alpha, this bond wouldn’t be able weak my mate bond. But Ezekiel’s power is more than mine, so his aura will dominate the aura of my wolf. I took a deep breath and get up from my seat. I looked at myself in the mirror for the last time. From now onwards I won’t be Lilia. I will be someone’s mate and Luna of this pack. My
“Alpha Damien, we used to be friends. Don’t ruin this thing by making some stupid mistake. Your action will spoil not our friendship but our pack’s peace too.” Ezekiel Threatened him. But my mate was looking at me unfazed and it felt like he can’t see anything other than me.He was looking at me like I was so treasureI can feel the atmosphere changing as the happy moment is changing into something ugly and I know this thing will get nasty soon.“Do you think I care? I have waited for my mate for twenty-five years of my life. Nothing is more important than her.” He says, and I look down.I couldn’t look into his eyes as I was guilty.I know he is here to claim what is his, and I didn’t have any right to stop him.I was fated to be his.But my fate has played a cruel game with me.My fate has bound me with Ezekiel.Even if I want to wrap my body with his scent and curl
I was waiting for too long, closing my eyes for his dreadful announcement.Tears were rolling down my eyes continuously.“Lilia,” he called me, but I didn’t open my eyes.I can’t face him anymore.I have disappointed him.I have failed our bond. I couldn’t give him what he deserved.“Look at me,” he said sternly, placing his hand on my cheek and I open my eyes and look at him with an apologetic gaze.“I, Damien, Alpha of the Moon Flower pack won’t accept your rejection. You are my mate and will always be, I would never accept it till my last breath.” He said lovingly.His face held a smile but his eyes are red with tears.But he was holding it inside.I felt guilty seeing her pained expression.“No, you can’t do that. She has rejected you. You can’t reject her rejection.” I hear Ezekiel growl.He was act
Damien’s P.O.V.It has been a month since Rose left our life.I thought I wouldn’t be affected.But her last words left a deep impact on my sanity.How couldn’t I notice she loved me so much?When she died, I was feeling guilty about her.But there was not an ounce of love.I was just regretting taking her as my mate and ruining her life.I was so lost in my sadness that I couldn’t realize that she was suffering, too.I wanted to provide her with a place where she can live happily and peacefully.But I didn’t know this palace became a cage for her and she wanted her freedom.I was happy that she got her peace.But I feel guilty thinking about how I am the reason for her suffering.Her last word still rings in my ear.“But I hope this time you find your other part of the soul. Your mate.”How could someone love another person with so much
When I got in my car and Peter started the car and we drove away from his pack, leaving my mate with that asshole.My wolf came to the surface and started to yell at me.“How could you leave her alone? She needs us. She needed to be protected.” My wolf, Chaos, was angry. He wanted to protect her keep her close and comfort her.Leaving her with someone else was making him unsettled.He was constantly complaining in my head, and that was causing me a headache.“Shut up.” I berated him and he whimpered sadly.I rarely become angry with him because most of the time he acts calmly.But today he was not thinking as I think.We can’t act on impulse today.This matter is complicated.“Do you want our mate to hate us?” I asked, and he shook his head.He was scared because I scolded him so loudly, but he was not thinking sanely about what I could do.“Have you not noticed how his word was making her submit to him? He has something in his hand which was making our mate helpless. He was using her
Lilia’s P.O.V.The next morning when I woke up the sun was shining brightly.I look at the clock, and it was hitting twelve.I become shocked thinking I slept till noon.I tried to get up, but I hiss in pain.My whole body was sore as I was sleeping on the floor and my feet were paining as I left my wound untreated.My head was also aching badly.And I was feeling dizzy too.I had nothing after lunch on the last day, so maybe that’s why I was feeling weak.I got up and knock on the door to take a chance, but like last night no one bothered to open it.I thought Ezekiel’s anger must have calmed down after the passing night.But when I remember how angry he wasThe room was a disaster, so I slowly got up and walked toward the bed.Though I didn’t want to share the bed that Ezekiel used my body was retaliating.I needed to lie down before I fall unconscious againSo I walked toward the bed and lean on the headboard tiredly.A few minutes later, someone opened the door, and a maid entered
