HOW DID YOU KNOW THIS?

Melissa's POV

“Answer me!!” He repeated when he didn't hear any words from my mother. The air grew thick with tension as Alpha Elijah stepped closer. My mother and I stood frozen, our face pale as if we had seen a ghost. Alpha Elijah was Axel's best ally and there is no tendency that he wouldn't tell Axel what he has just heard.

Goodness! We are done for.

“Don't make me repeat myself, Matilda!” He growled. My mother's lips trembled but no words seemed to come out. It was as if she had suddenly gone dumb and I couldn't blame her one bit.

“Alpha Elijah,” my mother finally managed to answer, her voice shaking. “I
I can explain. It's not what you think. I didn't mean
.”

“Didn't mean what, Matilda?” His voice was low, but it carried a dangerous edge. “Didn't mean to confess to murdering Tricia? Didn't mean to lie to the entire pack about her death? Or didn’t mean to let Lenora suffer for years, knowing full well her mother was innocent?”

My heart pounded in my chest as I watched

    Melissa's POV “Your guesses are right, Alpha Elijah!” I winked at him again. “Tabitha!” He let out a low guttural growl. “That old hag! She's going to regret this!” He said through gritted teeth and I just let out a small laugh. “Exactly how you are going to regret it if you ever tell Alpha Axel about our little secret!” I said in a low whisper. I couldn't tell where the courage to stand up to him came from, but I was glad that it did. “You won't dare!” He hissed and I just smirked. “Won't dare, huh?” I chucked. “Come on, sweetheart, I'd dare to set your ego on fire just to watch it burn. But don't worry, I'll let you keep your delusions. They are the only thing holding your fragile little world together!” “Melissa!!!” My mother yelled at me through the mind link and I rolled my eyes mentally. “What?” I shot back. “He's an Alpha. Don't talk to him that way. It'll only piss him off the most and we'll both be in trouble” She said again and I shrugged. “And that's exactly w

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   HE'S DEAD

    Zariel’s POV “How did it go?” I asked the men standing before me. I had asked them to disguise themselves as rogues, to hurt Zade. And of course, I asked them to hang around the pack, around the woods and be ever ready in case they sight Zade, so they'll attack him. I really hope they were able to succeed with it. Else, I'll kill them all. They wouldn't dare fail me. A smile broke out on the leader’s face. “It went well, Zariel. We attacked him.” My lips curled up into a smile. Good! This is what I want to hear. “You all deserve accolades for a job well done.” I winked at him and his smile broadened. “So when are we getting our payment?” I rolled my eyes. “Relax, man. I was about to come to that sooner!” “I'm sorry, I didn't mean to sound that way. But you know, people can't be trusted one bit. They'll always want to take advantage of

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   GIVE IT A REST

    Zariel's POV A huge smile spread across my face the moment Talia’s words sank in. Dead? Zade was finally dead? I couldn’t help it—this was definitely something to celebrate. “Dead?” I repeated, my voice barely audible. “Are you sure about this?” I really tried to keep my smile out of my voice. Talia was the kind of person who could pick up on the tiniest shifts in tone and I didn't want her to catch even a hint of it. She always seemed to hear more in the way things were said than in the words themselves. “Well,” she said, her tone dropping a little. “It’s not confirmed yet or anything, but the maids are talking about it. They heard the doctor telling Luna Ophelia that he might not pull through. Zade was attacked, Zariel. Really badly. They’re saying he’s barely holding on.” My heart, which had been racing with excitement, beating like a wild war drum, suddenly skipped a beat. Not confirmed? What the hell! I needed this to be real. He had to die for good. The words ke

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   She was killed.

    Lenora's POV I was currently sitting on the bench in Zade's balcony. I wasn't tense anymore. Not after Zade had woken up. Although he didn't stay awake for a long time before falling back to sleep. Indeed Luna Ophelia and Karl were right when they said he was a fighter. The doctor had told Luna Ophelia that she wasn't sure if Zade would survive the attack, but he did. He survived. He was indeed a strong man. I can't help but appreciate the moon goddess for listening to my cries. Ever since my time in Axel's pack when she didn't bless my womb with any child, I have decided to stop putting my trust in her, because she was always fond of betraying me. But from now on, I think I've found a solid reason to believe in her. At least she answered my plea this time when I called. That's more than enough reason to trust in her again. I was suddenly interrupted by a tap on my shoulders and I turned around to see Luna Ophelia. She had a huge smile on her face. “Mother!” I called out. It

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   APOLOGY LETTER

    Hi guys. First of all, I want to take out my time to appreciate you all for the endless support that you've all been giving to my book, for never failing to read every chapter I drop. I am so grateful and I'm never going to take it for granted no matter what. đŸ„čđŸ„č And also, I've been seeing some of y'all's comments about Melissa and her wolf. I'm really sorry for causing confusion about that. Indeed Melissa killed her wolf and I'm really sorry for writing something else. I have taken note of that and I'll not make that same mistake again. I know that no amount of apology would make up for the confusion caused, but I am really sorry. Most times, I have to read through my outline to be reminded about where I stopped in a particular book. I hope this helps. Xoxo 💋💋

    Lenora's POV “What?” A sharp gasp tore from my throat, the sound echoing in the room. My heart clenched as her words sank in. Each syllable felt like a dagger to my chest. Her daughter was killed by Axel? The thought alone was unbearable. My hands trembled and I felt the weight of her pain pressing down on me. Her lips curved into a small smile, but it was hollow. It didn't reach her eyes. It was the kind of smile that spoke of years of buried pain and anguish. The smile was like a mask to hide the storm raging within her. “Yes, Lenora,” she said, her voice steady but laced with fury. “My innocent daughter was killed by Axel eight years ago.” My stomach churned, a mix of anger and disbelief swirling inside me. “That’s
 that’s cruel,” I stammered, my voice trembling. “Why would he do something so monstrous?” Her gaze hardened, her fingers tightening around the edge of the table as if she was anchoring herself to the present “He’s a monster,” she said, in an icy tone. “He lost

    Talia's POV I was almost dozing off when I got a call from my phone and I groaned in annoyance. Who the hell is calling me at such a time? Past nine? I reached for the phone on the nightstand and Freda's name flashed across the screen. What could she possibly want from me at such a time? I had asked her to call me only when she had any important information to send across. ‘Maybe she did now.’ A voice whispered to me and I exhaled. Maybe she did.“Hey, Freda, what's wrong? Why are you calling me at such a time? Couldn't it wait until the next morning, huh?” I groaned as soon as I picked the call. “I'm sorry, Lady Talia. I shouldn't have called you at such a time, but I just couldn't help it. I have a very important message for you!” “Spill!” I gave a curt response. “It's about Alpha Zade's mate and Luna Ophelia. I overheard her discussion with our Alpha's mate. You won't believe what I found” I rolled my eyes when she paused. “Can you just go straight to the point, Freda? I

  • The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna   YOU KNOW EACH OTHER?

    Lenora's POV The guards didn't say a word as they led me out of the pack grounds. My mind felt blank, like it had shut off completely, and my body just moved on its own, like it knew what to do even when I didn’t. I couldn't believe this was happening to me. After everything I'd been through, after everything I'd tried to do, to make things right, it had all come crashing down. I glanced back at the pack house one last time, my heart aching. This had been my home, my sanctuary. And now, it is gone. I had no one. No pack. No family. No Zade. The guards finally released me, their expression unreadable. They didn’t say goodbye. They just turned and walked away, leaving me standing there, alone. I didn't know where to go. I didn't know what to do. But all I knew was that I had lost everything. I needed no soothsayer to tell me that. I lost everything and it was all because of Axel. Because of me. I sank to the ground, my legs giving out beneath me. The tears came then, hot and uncontr

    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

    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

    Princess Lara's Point Of View (6) Today is Alpha Zade's Mating ceremony? I couldn't believe my ears. No, I didn't want to believe it. “Are you sure about this, Sara?” “Yes, my Princess. The news was published on the television. And it was announced by a verified Blog, therefore I have a feeling that it's true. Today is indeed his mating ceremony.” Wait a minute. Alpha Zade has a mate, yet he has decided to get married to me? Or did he not care about his mate's feelings? Did the poor woman, whoever she is, even have any idea that her mate was getting married to the Princess of Samaria Pack in the next full moon night? “What if she knows about it, yet she still agreed to it?” Lyra mumbled? “She might love him and wouldn't mind. Don't you think so?” Goodness! I don't want to believe that she'll really agree to it. I took my attention back to Sara. “Who is the woman in question?” “Her name wasn't published, nor was her picture uploaded either.” She replied and I rolled my eyes. C

    Princess Lara's Point Of View (5) “And where the hell are you coming from, Lara?” A familiar voice sounded behind me just when I was about to go into my room and I rolled my eyes. What exactly is this bitch trying to gain? She isn't even the Queen yet she's already acting like an all-powerful bitch.As usual, I ignored her and made to enter my room, but her filthy hands shot out and stopped me. Anger washed over me, but I didn't turn to face her. “Take those filthy hands off me right now!” I hissed through gritted teeth and almost immediately, she let go of me. She didn't need to be told twice. Now I turned around to face her. “What were you saying, Morana?” “I'm sure you aren't deaf. Where the hell were you coming from? Have you gone to meet your lover again?” What the hell has gone into this bitch? How could she be so stubborn and deaf at the same time? My father has warned her to refrain from getting involved in matters that don't concern her, yet she never seems to listen.

    Princess Lara's Point Of View (4) I tried calling Dexter's phone, but it didn't go through and therefore I decided to let him be and call him later. Since I was bored, I decided to take a walk around the palace walls. “Sara?” I called my personal maid and she came running to meet me. “Yes, my Princess.” As usual, she had a smile on her face. I must boldly say she is the one person who has taught me to smile. I emulated the habit of smiling from her. I could remember that day she came into the Kingdom for the first time. Even when she still worked as an ordinary maid, she had a smile on her face. “I want to take a stroll around the Pack. Mind joining me?” It wasn't an order like other Princess would have done. It was a request. Boy, I rarely order her around. And she never fails to remind me that I was her master and thus I have every right to do whatever I want with her, but I don't ever want to do that. After all, my mother never did. That was one reason why she was loved by

    Lenora's Point Of View I tilted my head to the side to see who just spoke up and it was none other than Axel's Beta, Derek and immediately, a fresh wave of anger washed over me. What the heck? What was he doing here? How did he find me here?Wait a minute
.how did he even get here? I thought there were guards at the gate at all times! “What the fuck are you doing here, Derek?” I hissed through gritted teeth, but he ignored me. “I do not agree with the union.” Derek repeated as he sauntered closer. “I'd rather die than let this union go on.” “Too bad you don't tell us what to do.” I hissed. “I have always loved you, Lenora. Now you are getting married to someone else?” I rolled my eyes. “You fool. He is my mate!” I snapped and he burst into laughter. “He may be your mate, but I'm sure he doesn't love you the way I do. I am in love with you, Lenora. Don't you

    Talia's POV I jolted awake as violent knocking pounded against my door. With a loud groan, I dragged myself out of bed, my mind still foggy with sleep. Just who the hell is banging on my door like a madman and at such an hour? I wasn't expecting any visitors, therefore who could it be? “Open the fucking door, Talia!!!” My mother's voice tore me away from my thoughts and my brows knitted into a frown. By the gods, what is she doing here? “I think the question should be how did she find you here?” My wolf corrected and I nodded in agreement. How did she find me here? I'd made sure I didn't go back home to meet her immediately I got back to the Pack, because I wanted to stay away from her forever. I feared that she'd trace my location and find out where I'm living. But now, she's standing outside my door? How? I contemplated on opening the door for her, because I didn't want to set my eyes on her ever again, but after figuring out that she's disturbing the neighbours, I deci
