She was betrayed by her fated mate, but claimed by the ruthless Alpha king. **** As the illegitimate young lady of a noble family, Athena has been living lower than a servant. Under her father’s constant neglect, her stepmother’s deliberate abuse and her stepsister’s bullying, she has managed to survive with her sharp wits and feisty nature. If it weren’t for a promise to her dead mother, Athena would have escaped from her father’s cruel family a long time ago. One day, her neglectful father decided to marry her off to an old but wealthy marquess who has more than 10 concubines after his fated mate, for wealth. Her heartless father claimed she was doing their family good. Did Athena accept her father’s arrangement just like that? No! She threw the promise to her late mother out of her mind, and hastened her long-term escape plans with the love of her life, her secret fated mate, Helios. However, Athena did not expect Helios to stab her in the back for her stepsister, claiming they were fated mates. What happens when Athena’s family locked her up in preparation for the marriage? Will Athena succumb to her unfortunate fate as one of the old marquess’ property or does her future hold much more, especially when she unexpectedly catches the eye of the ruthless Alpha King at a royal ball? **** THE SECOND CHOICE SERIES: The Alpha’s replacement mate: Unwanted Luna has a son (Completed) The Alpha King’s Second choice (Ongoing)

THE ALPHA KING'S SECOND CHOICE The ancient oracle (3)
What?I almost stopped breathing, my eyes widening at the ancient oracle’s words.I am the Alpha King’s fated mate?I wondered in disbelief.The new Luna Queen?How could that be?Helios and I have been fated mates. Even if he had betrayed our love, the mate bond I shared with him still existed to this moment and was my unquestionable support before the Alpha King’s claims.And yet, the ancient oracle proclaimed that I was the Alpha king’s fated mate and new Luna Queen? I have never felt the mate bond with the Alpha King in my entire life.Surely, there must be a mistake somewhere.I wanted to speak up and clarify that I already had a fated mate to stop this shocking charade of being the Alpha King’s fated mate, but the ancient oracle’s words had immediately stirred another round of murmurs among the few high ranking nobles.‘’This can’t be....’’ One of them muttered under his breath, but his words were audible enough.‘’You dare doubt her Moon Sovereign?’’ The ancient oracle instantl

Contrary to my unease, there was actually something beyond the endless darkness.The statue of the moon goddess, or rather a fountain with water flowing from her silver lips. I was dipped inside the pool of water bare with my head beneath the stream from the moon goddess’s lips. The servants of the moon murmured incoherent strange words that I couldn’t understand as I remained still in the water.I watched as the servants of the moon lowered themselves on their knees and bowed to the statue three times.‘’Step forth, Athena Lancaster. It is time.’’ One of them said after a moment. The other and two more servants of the moon brought over white garments.That’s right.Two more servants of the moon.They suddenly appeared when I was to take off my brocade gown before stepping under the fountain.My brocade gown was nowhere to be found in the room. Still, my attention didn’t linger on the clothing as discomfort rose in my heart when the servants of the moon began to wear the white garment

Ha!My disgust and hate for this father of mine couldn’t be more deeper as he revealed his plans.Did he assume I would honestly do as he wished? Think of our family? After all my unfortunate mother and I have suffered because of him?!I was glad to have head lowered or else I might not have controlled my deep resentment from showing on my face.‘’If you don’t become his majesty’s fated mate, you might as well become Marchioness Powell.’’ The Countess added softly from the side.‘’......’’I pursed my lips slightly at the mention of the old wealthy marquess. Though I didn’t look up at her voice, I could sense the subtle threat in her voice.Either make the Alpha King fall in love with you or become the Marchioness Powell.‘’Little sister must have been born with a lucky fate to have choices of becoming a Luna Queen or Marchioness.’’ Isabella let out a sigh as if envying my marital choices. Still, there was a slight edge in her tone at the choice of me becoming Luna Queen.‘’With your

‘’Athena, I trust the royal palace treats you well.’’ My father continued as he reached where I was, his smile never fading. ‘’We never expected his majesty to claim you as his fated mate. Your mother and I have been quite worried that your adjustment to the strict protocol of the royal palace might be difficult.’’Worried?With the wide smile and greedy eyes?I stayed silent and did not respond to my father’s acts, despite his warning eyes. The atmosphere around us suddenly turned awkward for a moment and his smile faltered, seeing that I wasn’t going to do the father-daughter act along with him.‘’The relationship between the Second young lady Lancaster and the Lancaster family doesn’t appear harmonious as on the surface.’’‘’What do you expect? All bastards are treated the same way in their families.’’‘’Not all of them...’’‘’No one is a fool to the Earl’s real intentions.’’‘’He was just trading off the Second young lady Lancaster at the royal ball before his majesty’s arrival.’’
