Violet

Calm down.

Calm down.

I didn’t know how long I’d been repeating those words to myself. It wasn’t like it alleviated the matter or slowed down my breathing in anyway.

For a split second, I lost awareness of my surrounding, only acutely aware of the fact that I was on the verge of passing out.

The more I sought to bite down the panic, the more it threatened to consume me whole. Just when it was all becoming too much to bear, I felt a warm hand on my shoulder. When I turned, Zayn’s eyes were fixed on my figure.

“Just calm down. I’m going to need you to breathe for me, Violet. Just breathe.” He stared deeply at me while he said those words.

I nodded my head before facing forward, trying to follow his instructions. My eyes shut close as I took in a deep breath before counting to four and then letting it out. I repeated this small action a couple more times until my breathing became steady again.

A small breath escaped my lips as I opened my eyes to face Zayn. He was still staring at

  • Revenge on The Alpha Who Rejected Me   Chapter 10 Cog in The Machine

    VioletBy the time we reached the house, the sun had already set and darkness was slowly closing in. Zayn unbuckled his seat belt and I did the same before getting out of the car. I let out a small breath, my gaze slowly drifting to the main house.How long had it been since I got here? Since the trajectory of my life took such a dramatic change.Even at evening time, it was still very a beauty to look at. I couldn’t help but marvel at it, mentally comparing it to that of my previous pack.A small chuckle left my lips. Trying to compare it would be a downgrade. Dark Moon was on another different level compared to them. If that one had been big, this one was grand in comparison. I was still staring at the building when Zayn tapped my shoulder softly.“Shall we?” He said, the smile never leaving his face.I hummed in response before nodding my head. It marveled me how much he was always smiling. I had initially sworn he had a resting bitch face the day we first met. Now it seemed he was

  • Revenge on The Alpha Who Rejected Me   Chapter 11 A Prelude To Chaos

    LUCIANThere were a lot of things I personally hated. People who wouldn’t get straight to the point, two-faced betrayers, broccoli, and people who thought they could get away with challenging me without any form of repercussions. “I’m sorry sir.”The man cowered before me, his whole body shaking as he trembled like a leaf. His whole body was on the ground as he bowed before my feet, lying at the mercy of my wrath.I had ordered that the man be brought to my office. Two guards manned the door to prevent anyone else from interfering in what would ensue.Turns out the man had been slacking off in his patrol duties. It irritated me that he probably thought he could do that without getting any repercussions for that act. I would teach him a very big lesson for that. One he would be sure not to forget.“Rafe.” I said in a calm tone.“Y—Yes Alpha.” The man stuttered, his beady eyes wide with fear and apprehension.“You still haven’t explained yourself. Did you think you could just do whateve

    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

    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

    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“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

    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,

    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 20

    LUCIANSpending 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

  • Revenge on The Alpha Who Rejected Me   Chapter 19 Solidarity

    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

    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
