LUCIAN

Spending the whole night obliging the drinking requests of my pack members was one thing. Waking up with a terrible hangover was another completely different thing.

I winced as I cracked my neck to the side. The sunlight was just about peeking through the curtains, indicating that it was well past daytime.

I got up from the bed, still feeling groggy from the night before. After my talk with Violet, I had left her room and had been cornered by Zayn.

He pretty much dragged me to meet the other guys, and we spent the better part of the night drinking our hearts out.

Now, I was suffering the consequences of it in the form of a splitting headache rocking through my head.

If I closed my eyes, it could feel as if the migraine was getting a bit better. I had two options: stay in bed and let the headache wash through me or get up and look for some Tylenol.

As attractive as the first option sounded, I knew that I had things to do today, so lying around doing nothing wasn’t exactly an opt

    VIOLET“Why not just do the world a favor and die, you ugly bitch!”If I could count the amount of times I had been told that, I’d probably get tired at some point and just call it quits. It was something that all my pack members had never hesitated to repeat over and over again. The man who had pushed me to the wall sent me an ugly sneer before letting out a huff and walking away. I was supposed to have been used to such treatment by now. I shouldn’t be affected by it anymore. Still…I couldn’t fight back the tears that spilled down my cheek.I bit my lip, lowering my head and walking up the flight of stairs. I kept my head down till I reached my room; no point in angering any more pack members. I was lucky to be done with all my work for the day.The main house was already clean and all the house chores had been done. When I shut the door of my room behind me, I let out a sigh I never knew I’d been holding. My whole body ached from working all morning. The sun was already setting whe

    VIOLETThere was no single remorse on his face as he said those words. I wondered how someone could reject you without even looking like he cared at all.My mouth remained open as no words would come out. This couldn’t possibly be happening. Why was he doing this to me? It felt like my heart was being shattered into thousands of pieces and there was nothing I could do about it.“W-What?” The words left my mouth in a stutter.“You heard me. I don’t want you as my mate. The sooner you get that into your head, the better.” He looked at me with disgust, written all over his face.If looks could kill, I’d probably underneath the earth. I wondered why he was looking at me with such hatred in his eyes. Like I was some vermin that had crawled from hell. I felt like collapsing into a puddle. This couldn’t be happening.“You heard what he said.” A voice said from the crowd.I watched as the slut of the pack, Sienna, gingerly walked up to meet us. Tristan’s eyes were set on her, watching her ever

    VIOLETMy eyes fluttered open, the rays of sunlight falling on my face. It made it hard to fall back asleep. It felt like someone had put sandbags on my eyelids. It was so hard getting them to open but eventually I did.It took some time before my eyes finally adjusted to the light. With a groan, I pushed myself up into a sitting position and looked around. I was on the floor outside the main house. I looked back at the tall building that had served as my home and prison for twenty-two years. The torture and torments I had endured in that house wasn’t something I liked thinking about.All of a sudden, memories of the previous night began to flood my mind. I clutched my chest, feeling like my heart was going to give out. It was still hard to believe that all of it had happened. I had been painfully rejected. The worst part was that he had embarrassed and humiliated me before the whole part.I took in a shaky breath and got up to my feet with a few groans. There was no point in hating my

    VIOLET“Fuck my life.”I cursed underneath my breath, scrambling to my feet. If it was truly rogues, then staying there would spell my doom. I didn’t waste any time and began running in the opposite direction from the howls.The cold wind whipped past my face but I didn’t care all too much. All that mattered to me was escaping from them with my life. That was all that was important to me. That was all I cared about. That was all I wanted.My legs ached with each step I took but I knew I couldn’t dare slow down my pace. Any false step would mean my death. I’d suffered and endured so much these past few days. I couldn’t let it all end here. My fingers were clinging hard onto my bag as I sought to quicken my pace.My heart began thumping faster as the howls began getting closer. They’d taken notice of me. It would be better if I could transform now and run but it would only slow me down and give them an advantage over me.I could hear the sound of their growls getting closer and closer. T

    VIOLETWhen I tried pushing my eyes open, it hurt like never before. I couldn’t control the searing pain that filled my head.“Ow.”I clutched my head, as the memories started to flood my head. It was hard opening my eyes but I eventually managed to do so. I squinted my eyes, trying to adjust to the lighting of the room. I looked around the room. It was empty save for a small lightbulb that hung from the ceiling.I tried to move my body but realized my hands had been tied behind my back. Trying to fight out of the ropes was nothing but a futile attempt. I let out a curse under my breath. So much for trying to find Lucian Sinclair.All my plans were going south so far. I had failed to find the one person that was supposed to help me get my revenge. I had no idea where I was being held. Worst of all, I was so fucking hungry.My stomach growled in response and I had to double over to try and placate the pain. Keeping my eyes open required a lot of effort and my breathing was becoming more

    TRISTAN“What did you say?”I wanted her to repeat the words she’d uttered so I’d know what I’d do with her. She still had that look of conviction in her eyes. I hated it. I didn’t like that she felt so sure of herself. I wanted to break her. I wanted her to know that I would be the one in charge, not her.“I can help you destroy Tristan. He’s your longtime rival, isn’t he?” Violet had a knowing look in her eyes.I couldn’t help but chuckle at her words. She really thought she had some sort of power over me. Like she could control me if she wanted to. She had a whole lot coming if that was what she felt she could do.I wasn’t some measly person that she could just try and use as she willed. She must have no clue who I am. Or if she did, she was a very bold woman. Too bad, this would be her last time ever being this bold.Leaning closer to her, I grabbed her chin forcefully, making her squirm in her chair. There was something else in her eyes. Something along the lines of fear. Good. I

    VIOLET“Okay, so what’s the plan?” I started immediately, thinking it better if they went straight to the point.It was great that we were on the same page now. At least we both had a common goal in mind. Taking down West Creak pack once and for all. Lucian would be the perfect person for the job. He probably saw me as just some disposable pawn he could use but I saw him the same way.“Come on.”Lucian gestured for me to follow him. I sent Zayn a quick glance. The beta gave me an encouraging nod. I let out a breath before making my way after Lucian.Lucian lead me into a room that appeared to be his office. It was a well-furnished office that seemed to highlight the Alpha’s taste.He had gone back to seating on his chair and even gestured for me to sit down. I took a quick glance at Zayn. He was no longer standing and had opted for taking a seat. He had an unreadable expression on his face so I couldn’t even try to decipher what he was thinking. Letting out a breath, I took the seat an

Lucian Sinclair had made his mark on me and officially claimed me as his mate.It was something I’d hoped for my entire life. I’d always imagined what it would be like. The room specially decorated with flowers and balloons just for this moment.My mate would look at with love in his eyes, like I was the only thing that mattered in the world. It would be the best moment of her life.

Like nothing had happened at all.Zayn looked oddly preoccupied with staring at his nails. He must have seen the whole thing happen. Perhaps that was his own way of helping me save face.My cheeks warmed with embarrassment at the thought that he had just seen what was meant to be an intimate moment.Given the chance, I would have lov

    VIOLETI tried to maintain my indifferent mask, trying not to let any emotions slip through. I knew a bit about Lucian already. Any slip-ups I made would be used by him to further manipulate me and get what he wanted. I wasn’t about to let that happen.“Oh really?” I folded my arms, eyeing him from head to toe.“Yes really.” He raised an eyebrow. “Unless there’s something else you feel you’re obligated to add to this.”“Let’s be honest,” I let out a laugh. “You’re not just here to check on your mate. What do you really want?”Lucian watched me for a moment before replying. “You know we’re meant to be staying in the same room, right? To make this whole thing more believable?”I was starting to get frustrated by how easily he was just changing topics to avoid answering my question. It was hard enough that he’d just barged into my room. Now it was impossible not to feel swayed by his deep, gruff voice.“Too bad we can’t,” I said, not bothering to match my voice with what I was saying.“T

  • Revenge on The Alpha Who Rejected Me   Chapter 18 Unexpected Visits

    VIOLETIt all seemed like some kind of dream to me. I felt like maybe I would wake up and find myself back in my old pack house. Alone in my room. Wondering why I had even been born in the first place.But it was different now. Every single thing was different, and nothing was like it once was. I was a Luna now.Luna of one of the best packs across the peninsula—the Dark Moon Pack. Feared and respected both in name and prowess. To top it off, I was mated to the Alpha of said pack.I had left the function after a while of greeting and exchanging pleasantries with the pack members. Everybody wanted to get a glimpse of me and at least have a small talk with their new Luna.I had expected such a reaction and had been preparing for it, but it didn’t make it any less nerve-wracking. After a while, it was hard to ignore the growing exhaustion gnawing at my bones.It seemed Lucian had taken note of it and politely excused us from the pack members. He then led me to my room and promptly left w

  • Revenge on The Alpha Who Rejected Me   Chapter 17 To Play A Part

    LUCIANOnce I opened the door, I was met with the sounds of laughter coming from the two women. Violet was seated in a chair, facing the mirror, while Reese was applying makeup to her face.“You’re not actually serious.” Violet sent my sister an incredulous look.“Oh, I’m dead serious.” She replied, eyes wide with a look of certainty in her eyes.They stared at each other for a moment before bursting into laughter again. I couldn’t help but wonder what the topic of their conversation was.Was it me? No. I highly doubt that was the cause of such fit of laughter.Whatever they were laughing about must have been really funny if it got Violet to laugh this much. I had never seen her smile so much. Maybe she was the smiley type—just not with me. It made me wonder what it would feel like if I were able to make her smile like that.I quickly pushed those thoughts back to where they came from. There was no room for such thoughts here. The tenets of our relationship had already been decided fr

  • Revenge on The Alpha Who Rejected Me   Chapter 16 Vulnerability

    LUCIANSo far, so good. I’d seen the days that passed as more or less a success. I was getting updates from Zayn, so I knew Violet was slowly adjusting to life in the pack. Reese was also spending a lot of time with her, so she didn’t feel too lonely. That was at least good.I didn’t need anything that would jeopardize the plan I had worked so hard to build. The plan I had put so much into. I was tolerating Violet only for what she could do for me.I hadn’t started prodding for information just yet, but I knew that would come with time.My hand absentmindedly drifted to the mark on my neck—the mark Violet had made. The mark that sealed the relationship we had with each other. After that day, it was as if I had become acutely more aware of her.It was like I could feel her anywhere and everywhere. I could now pick up her scent whenever I passed by anywhere she had been. It was driving me insane. I felt like breaking something. Or someone. Anyone that would be available.My inner wolf,

    VIOLET“You haven’t answered my question. Why the hell did you just barge into my room like that, huh? What makes you think you have the right to do that?” Lucian asked, his tone sounding angrier than before.If he looked irritated before, he looked furious now. I cleared my throat, wondering if coming here had been a terrible decision on my part.In my defense, I only came here because I was about to go shopping, and I definitely didn’t have any money of my own to spend.Now I was wondering if maybe I should just give up on it and apologize for entering Lucian’s room like that. A part of me wanted to do that and get it over with. Keyword: a part.“Forgive me for barging into your room, Alpha.” I did a mock curtsy.Lucian did not look one bit impressed by it at all, his annoyance seemingly growing more and more.“I just wanted to let you know that I’ll be going shopping with Reese,” I started.Lucian’s frown deepened at the mention of Reese’s name. He probably already knew that we had

    VIOLET“So, how are you liking Dark Moon so far, Sofia?” Reese started. “Well…I’m actually loving it here. Zayn showed me around and told me about different places and spots. I really like it. The restaurants, malls, and everything. This place is amazing. It’s really nice that you have a pack that fosters community and togetherness so much.” Reese nodded her head, listening to everything I was saying. It felt good having someone give me their full undivided attention. It was really nice getting someone to care this way. As good as it felt having someone listen to what I had to say, my guard was still up. I still didn’t know if Reese genuinely wanted to hang out with me or if she wanted to get something out of me. She was Lucian’s sister, after all. Maybe Lucian had sent her here so she could get something out of me. Or maybe she had some ulterior motives. I tried to push those thoughts out of my head. There was no point in starting to overthink. Reese was still here, of her own ac

    VIOLET“I can’t.” Zayn chuckled before speaking again. “Alright then. What do you want to know?” I chugged a glass of orange juice down before speaking. “First things first. Do you have a mate?” That got Zayn to pause mid-bite as he sent me a skeptical look. I felt like slapping myself. What kind of question was that? He probably thought I was trying to make a move on him. “I’m not trying to make a move on you or anything like that, I swear.” I waved my hand frantically. Zayn let out a laugh, unable to hold it in anymore. “I know. I was just messing with you. To answer your question, yes, I do have a mate. You’ll get to meet her soon.” I nodded, taking in all he’d said before focusing back on my breakfast. When we were finished, we pushed our plates aside and turned to each other. “So, what’s on today’s agenda?” I broke the silence first. Zayn hummed, thinking of what to say. Just when he opened his mouth to say something, Lucian walked into the dining room. We both fell silent

    VIOLETThe sunlight peeked from the curtains as day settled in over the night. I tossed and turned in the bed for a while, pulling the blankets over my head to shield me from the annoying rays of sunlight.After some minutes, I peeled the blankets off and opened my eyes. It was already morning. My eyes scoured through the room, taking in everything I was seeing.The room, the blankets, the vase by the window. My eyes lingered on the carnations still in the vase. For some reason, my hands instinctively went to my neck. The mark. Everything that happened yesterday was very much real. It hadn’t been a dream.I was still in Dark Moon pack, mated to their Alpha. In a few days, I would stand before them and be announced as Luna of the pack. My heart started to beat faster as the thought crossed my mind. I would be Luna.It shouldn’t have surprised me that much, seeing that I would have still been Luna if Tristan hadn’t rejected me. My fist tightened at the mere thought of Tristan, the one wh
