"How much does your father owe my brother?" The alpha asked out of the blue, staring into her eyes. "I am willing to pay everything." Ashina was not Impressed with the idea of being tossed between two brothers and she knew the alpha only wanted her because of his selfish desires. But she decided to play along. After being betrayed and killed by her sister Stacy, on her wedding day to the Alpha, princess Shina was reincarnated but in the body of an Omega and commoner who happened to be sold out to the Alpha's ruthless brother. She is determined to get revenge, believing the Alpha betrayed her after finding out he ended up with her sister.

"Congratulations, married woman," Stacy beamed as she walked into the room with two glasses of wine. I rolled my eyes at her. "That is too old-fashioned, Miss," I said, my eyes lingering on her hand. "Is that?" She raised a brow at me. "Or you'd rather be referred to as the great Luna of the Moon stone pack?" She made a light bow and I chucked. "Indeed." Today is the day I finally get married to Lucian, the love of my life and the alpha of my pack. Yes, I would be Luna just like Stacy has rightly said, but I was more excited about being Lucian's wife. "Let's make a toast," Stacy said as she stretched the glass to me. I hesitated. "Mmm...," I hummed. "I don't want to get too drunk, Stacy. It wouldn't be decent. I will have to stand before all the members of the pack, remember?" "Oh come on, it's your big day. Who cares about decency? Besides, it's just one take. You wouldn't be drunk," She pushed and I shrugged, taking it from her. "To a great married life," she said, holding her glass up. I met it with a click. "To a great married life," I smiled and gulped down everything. When I looked up from the glass, there was a satisfied smile on her face which I did not give much meaning to. "So, are you looking forward to your honeymoon," Stacy grinned at me mischievously. "Shut up," I hit her lightly, placing a hand over my lips. "Because that is the only thing you can do, look forward to it," there was a different glint in her eyes. "You will not be alive to witness it." "What...what are you saying, Stacy?" I stuttered, the pain on the sides of my stomach becoming more realistic. I had tried to ignore it. "You thought you were going to marry Adonai while I will be there and just watch? Do you want to be Luna over me? I am your elder sister, Ashina. And I cannot stand you getting married to the alpha and having more authority than me. I cannot allow that." The pain increased, and I held my belly, falling to my knees. Did my sister poison me? No, it's not possible. Stacy would never do anything to hurt me. Yet, the look on her face was more convincing than my hopes. "Yes I poisoned you," Stacy said as if she could read my thoughts. "And when you are gone, I will not have to worry about whether you will be better than me or not. I will have only myself to worry about because you occupy a lot of unnecessary space where I can be. So rest in peace, while I go to announce to everyone that I found you dead in your room." My eyes fell heavy, and I could feel life leaving me as Stacy made to leave the room. "Oops, need to put this away to leave no traces," I heard her say faintly, and with a blurred vision, I saw her take the glasses out with her, and that was the last thing in existence I witnessed. - Luciani- I woke up with a headache and sat up on the bed, groaning. My mind was cloudy, and the thumping in my chest, accompanied by heartache, reminded me that I had just buried my mate, and the pain that followed consumed my entire being. I noticed a movement beside me on the bed and turned round to see a form under the sheets. What is the name of... "Good morning, Alpha," Stacy greeted, and my eyes almost popped out of their sockets. "What the hell are you doing in my room and on my bed?" I half yelled, refusing my brain to think if we had done something with our nakedness. "What?" She looked puzzled that I had asked her such a question. "I came to your room last night to offer you some words of comfort and...and you forced yourself on me. Yet you asked me this morning what I am doing on your bed?" She covered her face and wept. I kept looking on in shame, hating myself. I had too much to drink yesterday and could not even remember what happened. How could I have done such a thing to my late Fiancés sister? "I am so sorry Stacy," I said earnestly. "I had no idea what I was doing, believe me. I did not mean to do it." "What will become of me now? You've robbed me of my pride and dignity," She did not stop weeping, making me feel more guilty. "How do I make it up to you? I have done such a terrible thing." "Make it up to me?" She asked as if she could not believe her ears. "You've ruined my life, Alpha. How do you expect me to go out there and show my face after what we've done? My sister is still fresh in the grave and then this happens?" "Stacy stop it," I frowned disapprovingly. "We did not plan to do this. It was a mistake. I barely recall what happened." "How could you be this heartless? I am your late fiancée's sister!" She cried harder and the more she mentioned Ashina, the more my heart pounded. "I am sorry. But I am not in the right frame of mind right now. Maybe we can talk about this later? Or is there anything we can do?" That seemed to be the most grievous mistake I have made in a while. Stacy suggested I marry her to cover up for everything. It would be more terrible if people found out what had happened between us. I did not love Stacy but it will take me decades to get over Ashina's death. Hell, I might even live forever without another woman, so since Stacy is her sister, maybe that is not a bad idea. So I agreed, and Stacy began the marriage preparations as soon as possible even though I told her to wait for a while till Bella's spirit had rested. I also thought people would talk about us getting married so soon as if we were waiting for Ashina to die. "The earlier the better," she had told me. "What if I get pregnant and people begin to notice before we make any moves? They'll also say you have been cheating on her with me before her death. But it makes better sense if you're just marrying me because I am her only sister, and you want to keep your loyalty in the family.”Chapter 61- Damon -The morning was quite windy and therefore cold. I had to find a jacket to cover myself and remained indoors because I had no pack duties that morning.One of the maids brought my breakfast, and my jaw dropped when I saw what she was wearing.She bent over, exposing most parts of her thighs as she set the breakfast on the table, and she took her time with it.I shook my head, wondering what she was trying to achieve so badly that she dressed so provocatively, even for a maid. When she finished, she looked up at me and smiled when she saw I was looking."Your food is ready, my Lord."I beckoned to her to come closer and she took slow and deliberate steps towards me."I'm here," she said in a soft and seductive tone and I smiled at her."You look very pretty," I said and stood to face her. "And I think I have a liking for you. What's your name?"She frowned a bit, perhaps expecting I knew her name."My Lord you don't know me? You surely do. You have seen me around ma
Chapter 60- Lucian -Damon and the other girl standing with Elena walked away, leaving me with her.She looked upset and I knew it was because of yesterday."You are upset," I stated and she looked at me like she could not believe her ears."I wonder why I should be," she said with mock surprise and I smiled, finding her expression cute."I know. I asked you to come see me yesterday and I could not come," I tried to explain. "I got caught up with something.""Something more important than meeting me of course. I can understand, even though you were the one who asked to see me.""I really could not help it. And I know you must feel bad that I did not show up. For that, I deeply apologise."Her eyes softened and my heart flickered."What was it you wanted us to discuss?" She asked.Well, I did not have anything in particular I wanted to discuss with her.I only wanted to be with her, to hear her speak and to watch her pretty face."You seem to have good knowledge and skill with economi
Chapter 59- Ann -My face brightened into a smile when I saw Damon walking towards me. But it was short-lived when he did not smile back."I would like to have a word with you," he said straightaway as he approached me."Okay..." I said with uncertainty as I wondered what was wrong.He led me to a corner, and my heart skipped a beat at how he looked at me."Damon, what's wrong?" I couldn't wait."Ann I need you to tell me nothing but the truth," he began. "You knew about Elena's scroll, the one she was looking for to appear before the council which you helped her search for.""I do remember searching for a scroll with her but she told me it wasn't something serious," I told him. "She told me it was just a piece she found.""Is that the reason why you decided to hide it? Because she said it was nothing serious?"I shook my head in confusion."I don't understand what you mean by that," I said. "I didn't know anything about the scroll except that I helped her look for it. I haven't even
Chapter 58- Ashina -I anticipated the evening. Patiently waiting for the sun to go down so I could meet Lucian.I told myself that it was not just because I wanted to see him, to be with him.It was because I wanted to hear what he had in mind to discuss with me.When it was time I dressed up and went to the garden.There was no one there. I sat and waited, thinking something had held him for a while.But minutes turned to hours and he was still nowhere to be found.Had he forgotten? But he was the one who asked to see me.I thought of going to meet him in his chambers to see if all was well.I hesitated. He had asked to see me. Why should I be the one to go to him? He asked that we meet here.I didn't want to go, but something in me wanted to confirm that he had reasons, genuine reasons for not being here.But when I was passing through the hallway my eyes caught something I could not believe.Lucian and Stacy were at the dining, having what looked like a dinner date.I could not b
Chapter 57- Ashina -I stood on the stairs and looked down at the beautiful garden, when Lucian walked up to me."Good day, Alpha," I greeted with a bow and he nodded."How are you doing today, Elena?" He asked."I am much better, my Lord.""I can see."He did not say anything more, and I wondered why he was here in the first place."Will you be busy tonight? I would like to have a word with you."I shot my head up. I wasn't expecting that."Is everything okay, Alpha?" I asked. "Did I do anything wrong?""No." He said simply.There was something about the way he looked at me that made me feel so uncomfortable. His eyes seemed to be looking into my soul.It was the way he had always looked at me while I was still here as Princess Ashina. It always made me melt under his gaze. But now I was suspicious. I couldn't trust him anymore."Where do I meet my Lord?" I asked him."Where we met the other night. When the moon is out, I will be expecting you.""But Alpha, you did mention that plac
Chapter 56- Ann -I was sitting with Damon and I laughed heartily at the joke he made.I watched his face as it lit up with his smile.He was an angel. Though he was the Beta yet a very simple and jolly fellow.He has become a very good friend over the days. I have caught my heart warmed up whenever he came around, and I always looked forward to seeing him.But despite the smile, I could sense some worry masked within, and I asked him."Is everything okay? You seem to be worried about something.""Oh, it's nothing serious," he said. "Elena slumped last night and I had to stay up watching her.""Oh my goodness," I sat up. "Is she okay now?""Yes. She's very fine now," he replied.I could not help but notice how he spoke about her with so much concern.I knew they were not in very good times as I barely saw them together, but even with that, he was still there for her.He really cares about her.I felt the jealousy welling up. Even though he's here with me, he'd always be a good friend
