ALISHA’S POV “Do you still love me?”It had to be the most ridiculous question I’d heard in forever. Lucien was asking me if I still loved him.The man who killed me in my previous life had the audacity to ask me if I still loved him.Had he lost his mind? Cause that had to be the only logical explaination for whatever made him feel I would still have the tiniest ounce of feelings towards him after every single thing he had put me through.I looked up at him and smirked, noticing how he stared at me with curious eyes. Like a fool, he was obviously impatiently waiting for an answer from me. And I wasn’t going to satisfy that burning curiosity of his by answering him.“Do I still love you?” I repeated his question with laughter. “Why don’t you try to figure that out yourself? Guess. Guess and try to figure out if I still love you or not.”Immediately, his expression changed, the look of curiosity on his face quickly twisting into one of anger. I could hear him let out a groan then ball
ALISHA’S POV “Alisha, are you sure about this?”I let out a deep exhale as I heard my wolf whisper her concern to me. I didn’t need to ask- I could already tell what was running though her mind. She was worried about my rather sudden decision.“Isn’t denoting Lucien to Omega a rash decision?” She continued. “I really think this would cause dissatisfaction among the pack members. You know how they all feel towards the Luna. They respect the Luna so much so hearing she has suddenly been demoted to Omega would only provoke them more and cause them to be even more dissatisfied with the Alpha. We don’t want that, do we?”“I know,” I replied her with a sigh. “I know this would make them only despise the Alpha more but it needs to be done. I have to show Lucien the lives of the omegas and the warriors. I need to show him the mistakes he had made in his previous life and change it. But first, I need him to experience it all firsthand so it can serve as a reminder for him.”“But the Pack memb
ALISHA’S POVKane’s eyes widened in horror as what could be his new reality quickly flashed in front of his eyes.He had talked so much about how the Luna deserved such a lowly position and how horrible her life was going to be as an Omega. And suddenly, I was letting him know his life could be just like that if he dared to utter another word.“A-Alpha Lucien,” his expression had completely changed now. Compared to before, every bit of excitement had vanished from his face, leaving buds of anxiety and nervousness. “I’m sorry. I didn’t know you were in a bad mood. I’m sorry for saying- I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have.”I let out a hiss and shook my head. He was unbelievable. But at tat moment, Lucien was even more unbelievable to me.“Actually, I came here for a reason,” he went on. “I wanted to ask you something else.”Taking my silence as a cue, he went on. “When would you strip Calum of his title? He has been Beta for so long now, don’t you think?”I felt a fresh wave of anger making it
LUCIEN’S POVWith every single second that passed with me in Alisha’s body, I was only getting angrier and in more awe over how she really could be.Her confidence was baffling. The fact that she knew who I truly was and yet, didn’t hesitate to treat me so poorly. She didn’t even care that I was in her body. She didn’t care about how all her cruel actions towards me were going to have indirect consequences on her own body and yet, treated me so lowly.For the first time in literally forever, I was treated without the respect I naturally deserved. I was grabbed by guards and was dragged out of my office.Just the thought was infuriating and I immediately turned to face the guards who had their grip on me. If only they knew who they were holding, they wouldn’t dare to lay even a single finger on me.“Let-“Just as I was about to yell at them in an attempt to get them to loosen their grip around me and stop treating me like a prisoner, I felt their grip loosening, the two guards quickly
ALISHA’S POVI knitted my eyebrows as I watched Calum walk up to me, boiling in anger. I could finally understand what was going on. His anger was directed towards me, the Alpha and not Lucien, the Luna he could see.“What is this about, Alpha Lucien?” He immediately demanded as he walked up to me. “I heard you punished the Luna by demoting her to Omega. Alpha Lucien, regardless of what she might have done, don’t you think that’s too harsh of a punishment? She is the Luna and even if she wasn’t the luna, think about our family’s long standing history. It is unfair and a taboo for us to be treated like this without any ounce of respect. I’ll like you to reconsider your decision and have that punishment revoked.”My heart softened as I listened to him patiently. He was still my brother after all and despite all that had happened, he hadn’t lost the compassion he had and felt towards me.“Is that all you have to say?” I asked him calmly. I didn’t want to interrupt him and would only want
ALISHA’S POVI immediately took a staggered step backwards, sending my gaze to the floor so Calum wouldn’t notice how shocked I was.He wasn’t a fool and had never been one. He was always quick to catch up on things but never did I imagine he’ll be able to guess I wasn’t the Alpha.“What?” I looked up at him, trying my best to keep a neutral expression on. I was suddenly conflicted- stuck between acting surprised and clueless. “What do you mean by that? Of course, I am your Alpha. I mean, why would you even think I’m not the Alpha?”“Because the Alpha I know,” he went straight to the point. “Is nothing like this. He’s an undeserving and insensitive person and that’s not who I am seeing right now.”I was supposed to get mad and take offense at his words but I couldn’t. He was completely right.“You see what I’m talking about?” He spoke up again, this time with a scoff. “The Alpha I know would never remain silent after I uttered such words. He would flare up and because of his ego, woul
LUCIEN’S POVMy mood had been revolving around constant displease for days now so I should have at least gotten used to it.But I refused to. Especially when I was welcomed to a new disrespecting or annoying situation every single day, pushing me to be even angrier than I was the previous day.My eyebrows were permanently knitted, my blood boiling in and I was doing a terrible job at hiding my emotions. Not like I was trying to hide it anyways- I had no reason to pretend I didn’t hate the situation I was in.No one could pretend they didn’t hate the situation I was in. After all, it was far from being fair.It was the weekend and i was spending it in the Omega’s camp, working like my life depended on it. Under normal circumstances, it had to be the most bizarre thing ever but Alisha had instructed the Omega Consul to ensure I worked like a lunatic. Too terrified to even dare to refuse the Alpha’s orders, he was left with no choice than to let me work, annoying me even more with every
LUCIEN’S POVThe rest of the day went smoothly and it was finally time for me to return to my room.I was able to stomach all of the insults and comments about the Alpha from the rest of the Omegas and in return, remained on their good side. Indeed, they greatly cared about Alisha and didn’t fail to show it.“Luna Alisha,” I stopped in my tracks as I was about to head out of the Omega camp, hearing a now familiar voice. “Wait.”“Here,” one of the omegas than had been really friendly towards me said, handing a pastry over to me. “I made it and wanted you to have some. I hope you like it.”“Oh,” surpised by her kind gesture, I collected the pastry from her slowly. “Thank you, Bella. I would enjoy it.”“You don’t have to thank me,” Bella smiled at me. “It’s the least I could do for you in gratitude. You’re the reason me and Maya are no longer quarreling. If not for your intervention, things between us would probably still be so bad so I’m very grateful towards you.” “Oh?” Again, I was c
