Prologue

Fear. Guilt. Shame. Shame. Guilt. Fear. These heavy feelings torture my conscious over and over again, until I'm strung so tight, I'm begging the Moon Goddess to end it. To get me out. She doesn't. Shame. Guilt. Fear. And every passing year...I'm closer to the edge than I was before. ... I grew up in a prominent pack. One deep in the mountains, beside a clear stream of water, surrounded by evergreens on every side. My father was the Alpha and I, his only daughter. Usually, females, no matter how strong and capable they were, never inherited their father's legacy. This case was true for the daughters of Alphas, Betas, and Gammas alike. No matter their status, at the end of the day, they all ended up in the same group. The incompetent, the unqualified descendants, deprived of the right to carry their father's mantel, because they weren't born with a giant stick. But this wasn't the case for me. You see, my daddy fought for me. He earned me the right to lead his pack after him. S

It felt like weeks, months, years had passed since I entered this pack. By some cruel twist of fate, I finally met the soulmate I had been waiting for, only to discover he loved another, and refused to accept me.So here I was, far from the familiar comfort of my home and pack, trapped in a glided room with Omegas, while the Lycans of the Pacific Sea decided my fate.The arrogant pricks didn't starve me or torture me. They kept me well fed with clothes and accessories fit for a Luna. But the anxiety of not knowing what was happening in that hall was wearing down my patience. My fingers were trembling in the telltale sign of an impending shift. But I couldn't risk a shift. Not when I hadn't fully grasped my wolf. So, I forced myself to stay calm, to keep my breathing even by taking deep gasps of air and releasing them on a long exhale.Patience. This was a virtue I never learned to cultivate. I never needed to, when everything I desired was placed at my fingertip before I even voiced

Idris Raed watched me from the bed as I stood before the mirror and brushed my hair. Then braided the sides and coiled it in a swooping ponytail. The ember strands naturally swayed to my butt, showcasing their lustrous shine and thick volume. Withdrawing a white-blue skirt that swept the floor and a long-sleeved blouse from my suitcase, I changed in the bathroom, and applied a cherry lip gloss and smoky eyeliner before checking myself out in the mirror. I always knew. The heated gazes of the males in the Evergreen Pack said it too. But at this moment, probably because I put in the effort and had the intent to seduce, I looked better than I've ever looked before. Hot wasn't even the word. Breathtakingly stunning, but with a hint of innocent charm just about described it. I was glowing, oozing with confidence and grace that would put the most beautiful she-wolf to shame. Exactly as I wanted. At this moment, I was out to win my mate, and any female with a brain should know to step ou

As the Lycan Commander of the Pacific Sea, few males dared to confront me, let alone indirectly deride me. Of course, those few just had to include my brother Idris. "Idris, watch your tongue." I snarled at him. "I would say the same to you." He flashed me a cocky grin and leaned back in his seat. "Don't forget. The one sitting here is my wife." He said it lightly, but I caught the hidden warning in his tone. Interesting. It seemed my little brother was smitten with his new wife. I fought off a chuckle and picked up the glass near my hand, sneaking a glance at the soulmate the Moon Goddess chose for me over the rim. "Oh? Last I heard, this wife of yours was my mate?" I sneered. Same as earlier, I meant to provoke a reaction from the woman with my crude choice of words. But my rejected mate lived up to her reputation of a standoffish bitch. Not a flicker of distress crossed her features when I associated her with the common whore. "Was. The moment you chose Caira, you lost the rig

Once we left the Commander's Mansion, I wrenched my hand out of Idris Raed's grip and practically fought not to storm my way back to the mansion. Though it was now dark outside, there were still some Lycans and wolves loitering around. I didn't want to become their morning gossip."Saira, watch your steps. There are shells in the sand." The bastard I hate called from behind me.I wondered if this dude had a screw loose. He didn't seem to understand my body language, or the dark expression on my face. The hatred in my eyes could freeze anyone to stone. But it wasn't frosty enough to keep him at bay."Saira, slow down. The sand is slippery." He cried out again, sticking to my side with dogged determination that made me grit my teeth so hard, they itched.Picking up my speed, I tried, like always, to ignore his presence and treat him like air.And failed miserably."Saira, your skirt is dragging on the floor. Be careful not to trip.""Saira, how is your arm? Is it still hurting? If it i

"I...I accept you." The Lycan Heir blurted out with a heated gaze. His words were barely discernible, but I heard them loud as a bell, as I'm sure he meant for me to hear. "Yeah, well. You're not my soulmate." I replied in a firmer tone. An awkward silence settled between us. Since our Bonding Ceremony, Idris Raed treated me with respect and took care of my needs before I even voiced them. The sarcastic jokes he cracked sometimes gave others the impression that he was a careless and laid-back Lycan. However, one week was enough for me to realize the man was far more complex than he appeared. And I...wanted nothing to do with him. He sighed and dragged a chair from the other side of the room. "If you ask me, I think we make a better couple than Caira and Einas." I swept a mocking glance over him. "Ya think?" "Well, yeah, I mean..." "That was meant to be sarcasm." "Oh." His voice, dampened by what I could only describe as dismay, couldn't hide his disappointment. After a moment o

"Burying failed. Smashing didn't work. What should we do to rid ourselves of this curse?" "Keep your voice down. Though I'm the Alpha, I still need the pack members' respect to lead with honor. As for her...we can't bury her outside like we did last time. Whatever we do, we must do it within the four walls of this mansion." "Mother, father, how about...we drown her?" I sprung up with a gasp, and rapidly blinked my eyes. Soaked with sweat, my nightdress clung to my skin, offering me little protection against the chill in the room. “Just a dream, Saira. Just…another dream.” I gulped, forcing the images out of my mind. The dreams. They were becoming more frequent, persistent, since I came to the Lycans lair. As the first rays of morning sunshine basked me in their warm radiance, I couldn’t help but wonder if that meant something. “Hehe. Of course, it means something. It’s a sign your tyranny’s about to end.” Zaria cackled with glee. “Yes, and with me, it’ll be your end as well. How

I didn't sleep well last night. Saira Malivik haunted my dreams in a skimmy outfit. Now, as I stood on the left side of the throne, my temples throbbed from lack of sleep, and I had to force myself to stay awake. Of course, the Clan Elders’ boring chatter didn’t help my case. Suppressing a yawn, I raised my head and lazily swept my gaze across the hall. Then, I saw her. Or more specifically, them. As if attracted by some sort of a magnet, my gaze was automatically drawn to their clasped hands. All too suddenly, the hall went quiet. An indistinguishable emotion blazed in my heart, weighing my chest with heaviness. I frowned, slightly discomfited at what I was feeling. Was it jealousy or displeasure? I couldn't tell, and this pissed me off. 'Must be the dream messing with my mind.' I decided, wrenching my gaze away from their hands. “Saira, Idris, you’re here.” My father’s face lit up at their appearance. "Daughter-in-law, come here. Let me have a look at you.” He beckoned to the

Idris~8

My heart swelled with pride as I gazed at my wife. She was a wonder to me in so many ways. Her confidence, her loyalty towards her soulmate, and her unshakable faith in the bond few treated as a gift in our community, were commendable. However, what drew me to her was her willingness to fight for her mate and her resolve to wait for him to return to her side, no matter how long it took. And not for the first time, I internally ridiculed my brother for being a fool. And for the umpteenth time, I prayed to the Moon Goddess for him to remain a fool to his last breath. “She’s ours now! Even if he regrets his rejection, we won’t let him take her back!” Malko growled in the back of my mind with the possessiveness of a mate. I sighed dejectedly and reminded him. “That decision isn’t ours to make. Saira already hates me for forcing a Bonding Mark on her. I won’t take a risk that’ll make her loath my very existence.” Though not as strong as the marking between soulmates and chosen mates, a

“You can let go.” My words were for the Lycan, as I glowered at the old men. As I expected, they were nothing good. Thankfully, we left the hall and I didn’t need to see their faces anymore. Otherwise, I might’ve just cursed them to their face. “Sorry. Are you okay?” Idris Raed asked worriedly as he released my hand and scanned my face. “I’m still alive.” I sighed. The scene in the Meeting Hall had me rattled. Einas Raed didn’t only reject me, but he also painted me as a desperate woman in front of his clan members. His actions were disappointing, to say the least. I could tell he had intended to use public pressure to make me accept his rejection. Now, more than ever, I was determined to make him fall for me. To make him taste the pain of rejection, before accepting him as my soulmate again. “Do you have a library in your mansion?” I asked Idris Raed as we strolled out of the palace through a back door into a tropical garden. “I do. Do you want me to give you a tour?” The Lycan
