* Sydney *They said that the crowned Prince is also the Alpha of the Royal pack, soon to be Alpha King Brad Langston is the Alpha of my pack. While his father is the current great Alpha King, and he is also the powerful wolf who holds a grudge against my family. I was not aware of the facts until I arrived at the Harger mansion."Oh my gosh, Sydney! You know that out of all my relatives Alpha Brad is my favorite you are so lucky to be his partner on the dance floor."I exhaled an air from the inside of my lungs."Jessica, this is not safe for me. Does he know about my real family background? What if he throws me out the moment he realizes the truth?""No! He will not do that. Relax my dear friend, he has no idea who you are. My parents are here to protect that information and I am here to protect you too. You are a sister to me."I look at her and read the genuine smile on her lips. Her father, Alpha Xander, and her mother Luna Nelika, are so fond of me. However, if worst comes to wo

* Sydney *Days fly by fast, and I couldn't forgot the conversation I had with the Alpha. Brad Langston is not just any wolf or any other Alpha, he will soon become the Alpha King. And his words installed inside my head, he will take me to the Palace and then what? Will he punish me for the sins of my ancestors? Or will he pushed me down in front of the Alpha King and end my life there according to his command. I can run away, however I have no courage to tell Jessica or to leave her on her very important day."Sydney! Are you awake?"It was a question followed by the swinging of my bedroom door open. My eyes who's watching the window outside flew towards the image of Jessica in front of me. Her eyes dancing in delight, her big day is already tomorrow. I can’t tell her about my worries, I wouldn’t want to turn her happy day into the opposite nor give her something as a distraction."Good morning to you too!"I forced a smile to appear on my lips, returning her happy mood."Oh, Syd! I

* Sydney *As the Alpha and Luna of the West get their full attention towards Jessica, Alpha Brad has his eyes boldly glued into me. I can sense his desire raking through the way he looks at my shoulders down to the sandals that I am wearing and it makes my heart skip. I did not fail to notice that despite an angry look on his face, he looked so handsome in a classic slim-fit suit in a masculine gray color. His hair sleek back neatly and on his wrist is a heavy gold watch and nothing more. "Happy birthday Jessica, you look lovely as always. Now let us not block the other guests from coming and let us all head inside. By the way, thank you for bringing my dance partner."I opened my mouth to speak but no words would come out as he came forward and grabbed my elbow. The scent of his musky and citrus perfume assaulted my nostrils, it went inside my lungs just like drinking a potent potion it affected my senses numbing it and spreading quickly."Oh, thank you, Brad. Please take care of S

* Sydney *I feel my throat itch and dry probably I was a little exhausted from the dancing and from the fact that Alpha Brad was getting into me. Before I could think of something else I gulp down the remaining champagne in my tall glass. The taste of the alcohol and the cold partially numb all the stress that I'm feeling. Jessica giggles beside me."Are you that thirsty? Would you like another glass?""Oh, yes, please. I just felt like my throat was so dry."She waved her hand at the waiter and asked for two glasses of champagne. The waiter smiled and came back to us promptly, bringing the drinks.Jessica was not even finished with her first glass so I took both in my hands. "You didn't have to hold that Syd, just place them on the table behind you."I looked behind me and placed her full glass on the top of a small table, and then I brought mine to my lips and started sipping my drink. I was halfway when strong and warm fingers curled at my wrist. "Just how much do you think you’re

* Sydney *We arrived at the Langston Palace an hour before sunrise, and the vast place had me gasping in amazement. The room he instructed to give me is an adjoining room to his own, and I have no strength to argue with him or decline. As I sat there watching the big glass windows that showed the view outside, I couldn't help but listen to his movements from the room he occupied. The luxurious place is filled with antiques and expensive furniture. As this is the first time I step foot inside the Palace I have been reminded of the days when I was young and I only look at this big place from afar."Get some sleep Sydney, I will wake you up for a tour at lunchtime. Right now we both need some rest from the long drive."I almost flinched when I heard his voice through the mind link. Somehow, I feel connected to him. My hand reaches to feel my slightly swollen lips. I could still remember how he kissed me and how I was rendered powerless against his charm. Alpha Brad almost took my innoce
