Chapter 4

Hazel's Point of View

'I am aware of that father." I said, trying my best to sound firmly and not stutter 

"That's good then, I need to wipe off the rogues so they will stop bothering the pack. And there is no way I can do that alone. I need a stronger pack to help me in doing that." He said and I nodded in agreement. Though this matter has nothing to do with me I still decided to play along with his talk.

"I sought an alliance from the Alpha of the Dark Knight pack. You know the Alpha is the king among all Alphas and his pack is the biggest and strongest " He paused and I nodded again.

I don't even know what is going on anymore. I want him to stop beating around the bush and go straight to the point. I need to know why I was being summoned here because everything he has been saying so far has nothing to do with me.

"The Alpha promised to help us but ...only on ... one condition." His voice trailed off.

For some unknown reason. My begins to beat rapidly I'm sure nothing good will come out of it especially when a condition is attached to it. But still, I want him to land first.

"So what is the condition father ". I said with a nervous smile on my lips. Trying my best not to stutter.

"He said he would help us if only I let him marry one of the princesses." He finished his word.

My heart dropped instantly. I can hear the sound of my heart slamming against my chest. No wonder I have a bad feeling about this. No wonder they have been treating me so nicely. So I was also a princess when it got to this point. So they remembered they had another daughter when it got to this point. I could feel anger rising within me. I've never been this angry in my life. I was betrayed in the end. After getting my hopes high, only to be crumbled in the next second. I felt nothing at that moment but anger. I clenched my fist tightly to suppress my anger. I've heard Ophelia talk about how cruel the Alpha of Dark Knight is. He was feared by everyone. So how am I supposed to marry that kind of man? I felt betrayed and hurt at that moment. 

I suck in a deep breath to calm myself because it looks like I will explode at any moment.

"But father..." I paused. I despised calling a man like him my father. He doesn't deserve to be called that. That goes for my so-called mother too. Who only pretended to love me when I would soon be able to help them.

"Alpha " I corrected myself. I should just address him as everyone also addresses him "How did he know that you have two daughters.". I said through my gritted teeth. Trying my best to hide the fury in my eyes.

"I don't know how he knows that. But he is the Alpha king anyway, so I don't think anything will be hard for him to know." My father replied with a nonchalant look on his face.

A soft chuckle suddenly forced itself out of my throat "Since the Alpha only said he will choose one of us and not the two of us. I think Ella is the best candidate for this. She is older than me and is even more mature. You have to teach her how to be a great Luna and she can also fight well. I think she's the one you should give the Alpha." I said with a small smile 

"What the fuck are you telling me. Are you crazy? There is no way I will marry who people call the devil. You must be out of your mind for you to think that I am the best candidate fit for this. You might as well marry him. You both fit for each other anyway. You are the only weird girl in our pack. It would be nice if you married that devil." Ella yelled at me angrily.

"Both of you enough " My father yelled angrily and we kept shut immediately. My father had the king's aura around him, no one dared to defy him whenever he used his Alpha tone on anyone.

"Why are you both bantering when you are not a kid." He said with a low growl and there was a pin drop silent in the room afterward. He directed his gaze at me.

"The thing here is that you will be the one to marry the Alpha. Though he will have to choose between you two, but you know you are very eye-catching. Your hair might be a little annoying but it's fine as long as you cover it with a veil." I heard my mother's voice beside me and I directed my gaze to her. She might sound well to others but to me, she sounded like an idiot. 

I'm afraid I will soon explode in anger. She is telling me pure nonsense which I don't like. I should be the one to marry the devil because I am eye-catching. So they know now that I am. eye-catching. This seems like a dream to me. An annoying dream I wanted to wake up from immediately. I'm so pissed off and I'm afraid I will burst in anger.

I suck in a deep breath and directed my gaze to my so-called Father. I flashed him a smile but the smile didn't reach my eyes.

"Alpha, Luna." I quickly changed from calling them father and mother "Though I did not know who the Alpha would choose between me and sister. But if he chooses me." I paused for a while "I will not marry him." I said calmly.

There was a pin drop silent in the room and I could hear how my heart was beating softly
