Chapter 6

Author: Seven Sevens
Chad trembled at Vivian's words, then gave a bitter smile and nodded.

"Yes, the ones who hurt Tessa were always just me and Maddox. We're two fools, alright."

But then, a sudden fierceness flashed in his eyes. "Even so, I'll make sure you—the true culprits—pay the heaviest price for what you've done!"

Dwight did nothing to stop him. With a simple wave of his hand, the pack guards stepped forward and dragged the still-screaming Yelena and Vivian into the dungeon.

Half a year later, I stood upon the stargazing terrace of Crescora, quietly learning from the royal seer how to channel the power of the stars.

When the day's training was done and I returned to my chamber, the Alpha King's chief advisor was already waiting for me.

"Your Majesty," he greeted with a respectful bow. "Have you grown accustomed to life here in Crescora?"

I removed the arm guards I wore during training and let out a soft laugh. "Very well. Better than ever before."

"I'm glad to hear it," the advisor repl

  • The Alpha Refused to Claim Me, but the Alpha King Did   Chapter 8

    Three years later, in Crescora, I stood as the Luna Queen alongside my mate—the Alpha King, Caleb Findsor—presiding over The Grand Gathering of the Packs.Dressed in the silver-white robes of the royal house, I received the homage and reverence of the pack leaders from across the continent.My mind force now easily blanketed the entire royal city, soothing the surging emotions of tens of thousands of werewolves stirred by the celebration.I was no longer the she-wolf who needed a prophecy to define her, nor one who had to cling to an Alpha to survive.By the time the celebration ended, it was already deep into the night.I walked back to my chamber alone, only to find a lone figure sitting desolately on the steps at the entrance. Instinctively, my hand tightened around the sword at my waist.Years of tempering in Crescora had long since stripped away my naïvety, leaving me ever vigilant.Perhaps stirred by the sound of my footsteps, the moonstone lamps along the path flared to l

  • The Alpha Refused to Claim Me, but the Alpha King Did   Chapter 7

    Just that single sentence drained all color from Maddox's face. His whole body trembled as he collapsed to the ground, his sunken eyes filled only with despair and regret.As if clutching at his last straw, he reached out to grab the hem of my dress, only to grasp at empty air.I didn't spare him another glance and turned to walk out along the narrow path of the valley.Behind me came his desperate, broken vow."It's okay, Tess. You don't have to forgive me. I'll keep protecting you, even if it costs me my life."His tone was the same as when he once swore to protect Yelena.It was a pity I had long since grown tired of hearing empty promises.My steps didn't falter, and soon I reached the mouth of the valley where a familiar figure clad in silver armor was leaning quietly against a tree, waiting for me. It was Ella, the Alpha King's general.When she saw me approach, she straightened at once and bowed.Then, she offered me a waterskin. "Your Majesty, His Majesty wasn't comfor

    The wolf fang pendant?Chad instinctively reached for his chest, where a small wolf fang pendant had once hung.I had stood on tiptoe and placed it there herself during his coming-of-age ceremony. It was given as our mating arrangement token, a promise that I would always protect him.I had also told him it was the first fang I had shed.The words "Luna Queen" completely unraveled his thoughts. He staggered back a step, his face drained of color."No, that's impossible. How could she agree to be Luna Queen?"The guard regarded his dazed state and replied in a calm and detached voice, "I don't have much time. Hand over the pendant."Chad was jolted back to his senses by those words. His hand trembled as he reached for the pendant at his chest, only to clutch at empty air.He had personally removed that pendant on the day he chose to take Yelena as his mate.The guard noticed his discomfort and gave a slight nod. "Seems like the pendant isn't here. In that case, I'll be leaving

    After that day, Chad never reached out to me again, nor did he ever come to see me.In his mind, I must have been throwing a tantrum. That soon, like so many times before, I would swallow my hurt. And once I healed, I would willingly serve as Yelena's maid.He even began posting more frequently on the pack's intranet, flaunting his intimacy with Yelena. There were photos of them picking out a cradle for their pup and decorating the nursery together.I scrolled past the images with a blank expression, feeling nothing. What did any of this have to do with me anymore? Nothing. So, I ignored it all.Outside, the Alpha King's guards had already been waiting for some time. The moment they saw me, they bowed in perfect unison, their gesture wordlessly conveying the highest respect for me as the future Luna Queen.I never once looked back. Under their escort, I boarded the vehicle bound for Crescora.Inside, I blocked all of Chad and Maddox's contacts, then snapped my SIM card in half an

    Better treatment? By that, did Chad mean downgrading me from the pack's once-future Luna to a maid who must bow and scrape before Yelena?Even now, he still wanted to control my life.How pathetic.I calmly withdrew my gaze from their interlocked hands and shook my head with steady resolve."That won't be necessary," I said.My composure left all three of them momentarily stunned.Maddox, who had followed closely behind, let out a derisive snort."Tessa, what are you trying to pull now? Drop the act already. The future Luna's place you stole has already been taken back, and now you're trying to play hard to get? How ridiculous."Well, let me tell you something—even without that false prophecy, you would never measure up to Yelena. The fact that Alpha heir Chad is allowing you to stay in the pack as Yelena's maid is already the greatest mercy you'll ever get."He was still as blind as ever, utterly unable to read the room. He had no idea that I no longer loved any of them.Upo
