Melissa's POV

“Mother!” A startled gasp escaped my lips, but she just shrugged.

“Don't judge me, baby girl. I am a woman who always does everything to get what she wants and whoever stands in the way of me achieving my goals would have to be sent straight to hell. There are no two ways about it.” She said those words like they were the most casual things to say.

I just can't believe what I heard. I can't believe that my mother was responsible for Tricia's death. It was too much to take in.

Didn't the autopsy report state she took a dangerous poison that killed her? Does that mean that the reports were fabricated to cover up the true cause of her death?

“Wait a minute, mother, what about the autopsy report…..” I trailed off and she scoffed.

“Isn't it obvious? I did what needed to be done. Those reports were fabricated by me. I couldn't let your father know that Tricia was murdered. Therefore, I paid the doctors to have it done”

“Wow!” I mouthed in disbelief and she shot me a

    Melissa's POV. “Oh my goodness! Melissa!!!” Standing in the doorway was none other than my mother, her expression a mixture of shock and fury. The air in the room grew thick with tension, and even though I felt as though the ground had been ripped out from under me, I was relieved that it was my mother and not Alpha Axel. Only heaven knows what would have been my fate. What would I have said to him? It would have definitely confirmed his words earlier, that I had the tendency to cheat on him. “What the hell is going on here?” My mother demanded as she got in, closing the door behind her. My breath caught in my throat. I opened my mouth to explain, but no words came out. Damien stepped back, his hands raised in a gesture of surrender. “This isn't what it looks like, Matilda.” He said, his voice calm but firm. “I only came to say hi to Melissa and my son….” Very quickly, I slapped Damien hard across his face, thereby cutting him off from whatever he was about to say. “A

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   A MOMENT OF TENDERNESS

    Lenora's POV I sat curled up on the cushioned chair of my balcony, my fingers lightly gripping the edges of the book I had gotten from the library. My favorite book by my favorite author, Marietta. The words on the pages blurred as my mind drifted, replaying the events of yesterday. Heat rushed to my cheeks as the memory – Alpha Zade, standing bare before me, his chiseled physique full on display. I could vividly remember how I had turned on my heels and fled faster than I had ever moved, even though the image had already burned itself into my mind. And now, as if summoned by my thoughts, I heard the door open and just then, I heard the unmistakable sound of footsteps entering into my room. My heart leaped into my throat. Even without turning, I already knew who it was. Alpha Zade. My powerful mate. I stiffened in my seat, gripping the book as if it could shield me from the presence of the only man who had been occupying my thoughts since yesterday. I didn't dare look

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   THE ALPHA'S VOW

    Lenora's POV I woke up the next morning to the soft rays of sunlight streaming through the curtains of my room. For the first time in three years, I felt a sense of peace and serenity around me. I suddenly recalled the feeling of excitement that washed over me when Alpha Zade kissed me on my forehead last night. It was a magical feeling. As I continued to think about it, I felt a blush rise to my cheeks. Taking a deep breath, I walked towards the bathroom where I did my usual morning routine and after I was done, I decided to seek out Alpha Zade. I just realized that I didn't thank him for the credit card he had given me yesterday through Beta Karl, when he came to my room last night. Luckily for me, after the tour that Lucia had given me, I could find my way around the estate. Therefore, I made my way there. As I approached Alpha Zade's room, I hesitated for a moment, my hand pausing over the door. After a while, I knocked softly and waited patiently for his permis

    Lenora's POV I stared at Alpha Zade's wrists in shock, my breath hitching in my throat as a thin line of blood welled up from the shallow cut he had made. “Where is your first aid kit?” I asked, but he shook his head as he placed his hands over mine. “You don't have to….” He started, but I shook my head. “Where is it?” I asked in a firm but polite tone. “It's in the bathroom. The biggest cabinet over the towel rack.” Immediately, I turned on my heels as I walked into the bathroom. Since he had described it for me, it didn't take long before I found it. And shortly, I was in the room with him. I placed the box on the table and quickly brought out everything I needed. My hands trembled as I reached for the bandage on his desk, my mind racing with different thoughts. I couldn't believe that he had gone to such lengths to prove his commitment to me. The sight of his blood, which was spilled for my sake, was overwhelming. “You didn't have to do that, my Alpha.” I whispered i

    Lenora's POV I stood at the edge of the pack house porch, my fingers gripping the wooden railing as I inhaled the pine-scented air. It was my third full day in this new new world yet, it has been the best days of my life. Who would have thought that I'll ever experience such a good time like this? Alpha Zade had left earlier for a meeting with his Beta, Karl and a group of warriors. He had apologized profusely, promising to return by midday, but I had assured him that I didn't mind. Truthfully, I was relieved. I needed time to breathe, to process the mixed emotions from last night: Zade's oath, his vow and the way he'd held me as if I was something precious. Now I was determined to explore my new pack. Therefore, I stepped off the porch and into the heart of the Blood Moon Pack. The pack was full of energy—warriors spared in a nearby training ring, children running through the cabins laughing and talking, elders sat weaving baskets under the shade of the ancient oak

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   A FAMILIAR FACE

    Lenora's POV The evening air was cool and quiet as I sat with Lucia on a bench. We didn't talk and the silence felt awkward. I had things I wanted to say, but I couldn't. The mean things the warriors said still hurt me and I didn't want to bother Lucia with my problems. Lucia had already done so much for me – confronting them, defending me — and I didn't want to burden her further with my pain. “See you later, Lucia,” I finally said, breaking the awkward silence. My voice sounded hollow, even to my own ears. It was better to go back to my room alone than to sit here and risk boring her with my thoughts. “Is there a problem, my Luna?” She asked, her tone laced with genuine concern. Her eyes searched mine, but I quickly shook my head, forcing a smile onto my lips. How could I explain the storm raging within me? The guilt, the anger and the grief. It was all too much to put into words. “Not really, Lucia. I'm just feeling sleepy,” I lied, the smile on my face feeling more lik

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   REUNITED

    Lenora’s POV I couldn't believe my eyes. Standing before me was a woman I had thought I might never see again. Eight months had passed since that fateful day when I found her lying broken and battered on the side of the road, left to die by some unknown stranger. The memory of her frail body, barely holding to life, flashed vividly in my mind. I had rushed to her side, desperate to help and in that moment, I had felt a strange unshakable connection to her. Now, here she was, alive and radiant, her presence alone, commanding the room in a way I could never have imagined. “Ophelia?” I whispered, my voice trembling, barely audible over the pounding of my heart. “What are you doing here?” She tilted her head slightly, a soft smile curving her lips. Her eyes, warm and loving, met mine. “Lenora.” She said with that smooth voice of hers. “It's been a while, hasn't it?” I blinked, struggling to believe that the woman before me was the same fragile figure I had seen before. I

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   EX-GIRLFRIEND RETURNS

    Zade's POV “What is she talking about?” My mother's voice cut through the air, her sharp eyes locking onto mine. I could see the confusion and suspicion in her gaze as she stared at me in close scrutiny. At that moment, I wished I could silence Talia forever and send her straight to the hell she deserved. She was really getting on my nerves. Talia walked forward, unaware of the tension in the air with a calm and self-assured attitude that was really annoying. “Yes, Ophelia,” she said, her voice dripping with a pretentious smile. “Zade and I are in a romantic relationship. In fact, we are almost done with our engagement ceremony. Zade can't be with any woman except me. That bitch…” she paused as she glanced quickly at Lenora, “Should leave. Her presence is not needed here, because, I, the rightful Luna is here to take my place as Zade's Luna” “Tell your mother about us, Zade.” She said as she reached for my hand, but I jerked away as if her touch burned. “Don't you dare

    Zariel's Point Of View A sharp knock sounded on the door and before I could leave the couch to go see who it was, the door creaked open, the sound echoing through the room. And immediately, I stood on alert, in case it was Darag's or any of his dogs. I know for sure that they wouldn't let me off easily after what Karl had done to them. They'll definitely want to get their revenge. I quickly snatched one of the daggers from the table as I tiptoed to the door. I have to be very careful. “Who the fuck is there?” I called out in a loud growl even though I was filled with nothing but fear. Raw fear. “It's me.” The voice came up. I was taken aback by the familiar voice and very quickly I put away the dagger, relief flooded through my body to know that it wasn't the people that I was expecting. I guess I was scared for nothing. “Talia?” I called, but I was met with only silence. My pulse quickened as I hurried toward the door, but I froze at the scene before me. She was sprawled ac

    Melissa's Point Of View “Now that Alpha Axel is out of our way, Melissa, don't you think we should have some fun?” Damien's voice sounded behind me and I gritted my teeth in anger. How on earth did I forget to lock the doors? I'd told myself that I'll never forget to close my door so he doesn't come in, but here we are. Why do I have to be so careless for heaven's sake? “Get out!” I hissed through gritted teeth and the next minute, he burst into laughter. “And why should I, huh?” “Please don't make me repeat myself, Damien. Get out of here.” My hand paused on the quilt that I was knitting. I swear to god, if he doesn't leave my room right away, I'll stab him with the knitting pin in my hands and I mean every bit of it. “This wasn't our agreement, Melissa!” He spat, but I let out a derisive scoff. Indeed this wasn't our agreement. We had agreed that as soon as Alpha Axel leaves for the Alpha's Summit, we'll have a great time together. But did he really think that I meant it?

    Lenora's Point Of View “I'll miss you.” I pouted as Zade got ready for his journey ahead. Today was a new day and hence the day he is going for the Alpha's Summit. I had expected that we'll spend the day alone, but who was I kidding? As much as I wanted him to stay with me, I could not stop him from leaving. His hand paused on the buttons of his suits as he came to sit on the bed beside me. “Do you want me to stay with you?” He asked, but I shook my head. “No, Zade. I can't stop you from fulfilling your duty as Alpha.” I said in a soft but firm voice. No matter how much I wanted him to stay with me, I CAN'T stop him from leaving and I meant it. “And I want you to know that nothing is as important as you. I really don't mind changing my mind about attending the Summit and spending the day with you.” I know that he wasn't bluffing. But at the same time, I can't stop him from attending it, especially as it was an important event. One that will benefit him greatly. He might want

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   MY MOTHER IS DEAD.

    Princess Lara's Point Of View Slap!!! “Do you really think that you can run away from your fate?” My father growled as his hands landed on my face for the umpteenth time. I can't remember how I ended up here, but what I vividly remember was the fact that I was caught by my father's watch dogs just as I was trying to leave. Man, I had thought that no one had seen me when I was leaving, but I guess I was wrong. Someone had seen me and I needed no soothsayer to tell me that it was Morana. She must have noticed my disappearance and had alerted my father's guards to find me. “I wasn't trying to leave, father!” I hissed through gritted teeth. My cheeks burned from where he had slapped me, but I wasn't willing to let him know how much it affected me. I wasn't willing to let him see the pain in my eyes and it was because that bitch was with him. Like I always say, the last thing I wanted to do was to give her the satisfaction of seeing me hurt. She was even smirking like someone who

    Lenora's POV He wanted me. With each pass of my hands, I grew rougher, edging closer to his cock, teasing him just enough to make him squirm. I wanted to feel him leap into my touch, to crave it. Slowly, I increased the pressure, until I finally wrapped my fist around him, feeling the heat radiating as he twitched in anticipation. His cock stiffened in my palm, and the dampness between my thighs mirrored the intensity of his growing need. My lips pressed against his neck in time with every stroke, tasting his skin as his breathing became ragged. I quickened my pace, my fingers curling tighter around his length. His moans deepened, growing louder with each squeeze, the tension building with every deliberate stroke.“Fuck!!!” He jutted while he leaned into my touch. He seemed to want more, so I decided to give it. I pressed my hand against his sternum to steady him. “Stay like this,” I whispered as he lay there on his back, cock standing to attention as if saluting me. His breathin

Thanks and have a blessed Sunday) ******* Lenora's POV “I want you.” I whispered in Zade's ears as soon as we got to his penthouse, the one he had prepared for our honeymoon. I love the fact that we weren't spending our honeymoon at the pack house. At least we get to do whatever we want. A blush crept up my cheeks as I thought about my last words. ‘Whatever we want’. “What do you mean?” Zade asked, his brows furrowed slightly. I needed no soothsayer to tell me that he knew what I meant. He clearly wanted me to spell it out. Two can play this game after all. “I’m willing to show you what I mean.” I cooed, while my eyes narrowed in determination. Zade took a measured breath and looked me up and down. He knew what I meant, but I reworded it, just in case. “In case you need a little clarification…” I pushed forward, so we were chest to chest, and I peered

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   DO NOT TRY ANYTHING FUNNY

    Princess Lara's Point Of View It's either now or never. I can't let my father dictate my life for me. I have someone I love and I won't let him ship me like I'm some goods to a beast like Alpha Zade. “Relax, Lara. You shouldn't call him a beast yet. You haven't had any dealings with him.” Lyra said to me, but I rolled my eyes. “Trust me, Lyra, he's a beast. No one has ever come in contact with him and survived it. He is.” “Well, you wouldn't say that unless someone had. So relax. He might not even be as bad as you painted him.” “I don't care to know, Lyra. I can't get married to him. I have to leave.” “Come on, Lara, don't do something that you are gonna regret later.” she pleaded, but I turned deaf ears to her pleas and before I could help it, I bolted for the door. But that was the worst mistake I've ever made in my life, because the next minute, I felt a sharp pain in my neck. I needed no soothsayer to tell me that it was my father. “Your Majesty….”“Where do you think y

    Talia's Point Of View I didn’t know how long I’d been out, but the sound of knocking jerked me awake. I sat up too fast, and a sharp pain shot through my head. Wincing, I grabbed my temples, in an effort to alleviate the pain, but it did nothing to help the pain. I gazed around the room trying to recall how I ended up here and almost immediately, the memories hit me like a wave. I gritted my teeth in anger. That bitch! She had come to my house some hours ago, and pretended to want to talk to me, yet she had drugged me and dragged me here. I'll never forgive her for this. I need to get out of here, but how? I quickly stared around the room, trying to find any object that I'll use to hit whoever comes in. Thanks, I found a hockey stick and very quickly, I hid it under the pillows. I don't care who is gonna come in, but I'll hit them. I don't care if it's gonna be Kathryn. After all, that bitch deserved to die. She has done more than enough already. She has hurt me more t
