Swara’s POV “So, you were bringing me to the temple all along?” I sighed. “Are you disappointed?” “Thinking about it now – how long would I hide my death? Soon people will hear word that I’m alive.” I reasoned, guessing the temple had something to do with it. “You are thinking like me. I want you to hide in this temple in the meantime. Till I’m back from teaching your ex-lover and father a lesson.” “I thought you were going back to find information on my biological father?” “Oh, and that too.” He had a mischievous look on his face. “When will you be back?” “Maybe in 6 months.” “What will you be doing at New Crystal for 6 months?!” I almost screamed. “Shhhh! You don’t scream in a temple else the Moon Goddess might turn you to a ritual bowl.” “I’m not a kid. Who are you deceiving?” I pouted. “Not only kids can be deceived.” “Sage Reon.” I teased. “You’ve got so many wise words that you just throw them at random.” “Yes, dear. That’s how I became an Alpha king. And you a runa

Swara’s POV“Hi, Swara. Nice to meet you.” She stretched out her manicured right hand to me.I received her handshake wondering how she knew my name.“Nice to meet you huh…” Trying to get her name.“Olivia is the name. I run this small business?”Was she kidding me? She was calling SWAT a small business? SWAT is the biggest deal to ever happen to me. And to be getting it on a platter of gold!Damn. I was moved to tears.“Nice meeting you Olivia. I just want to say you’re a genius. You are about to change my life.” I mean every word I said.“Not to mention. I can empathise with you. I was blessed with a weak wolf too. There was no place in the world for us. But here I am – I’ve been in the army and making a name for myself.”I smiled – admiring her tenaciousness.No wonder Alpha Reon needed to do business with her. She was smart and worthy of every side attraction.“I guess we are transparent.” Alpha Reon announced himself – his childish and playful mannerisms in full glare.I guess he

Alpha Reon’s POV“Alpha Miles will soon be here. I came ahead to tell you. He’s passing the Halan mountains.” He came closer and whispered such that Swara couldn’t hear.“What’s he looking for?”“He doesn’t believe his daughter is dead.” Gamma Atticus shivered.I shot him a dead stare. “You told him?”“I didn’t! I swear on my dead mother’s grave. Alpha Miles doesn’t believe she is dead for whatever reason.”“I believe he is coming to my presidential villa.”“What do we do?”“And why are you here? Don’t you think he’d find it more suspicious if he sees you here? Why didn’t you send one of your men?” I scolded him.“I wanted to deliver the message to you in person.”“Good thing he is here.” I bellowed.“What?! Why?”“He has saved me the trouble. I’d just ask him where he is hiding Swara’s real father.”“Rumour has it that he framed him for a crime.”“Maybe. He is capable of all scheming and framing.”“So what happens when he finds out Swara is alive?”Gamma Atticus was anxious.“Don’t w

Swara’s POV“We presented your father with a fake slave contract.”“And…”“He thinks Alpha Reon bought you as a slave.”“Go on.”“His signature was needed to seal the deal; that’s why Alpha Reon needed him to come to the territory gate.”“You are yet to mention the favour.”“We will need your signature too.”“That’s no problem. Why did you make it sound like a big deal?”“Remember, in the beginning, I mentioned a fake slave contract. In reality, it’s your dowry list. Alpha Miles didn’t bother to read through the contract agreement.”“What?! This is deception. How can he marry me without my knowledge.”“Relax Miss. He only wanted to give you a kind of reassurance that he’s serious with you.”“Serious my foot!”“It’s not official yet until you sign it. You’ve got a whole 6 months.”“Nonsense. Matthew! Thanks for ruining my morning, Beta Jasper.”“I’m still yet to mention the favour.” He threaded carefully.“I don’t bite. Hurry and speak.”“My sister is in a precarious situation. She mar

Swara’s POV“Never in my wildest dreams did I think you’d call me.” Alpha Miles spoke with a flat tone. “So, tell me how is your work as a slave in Alpha Reon’s domain? I’m sure you can cope pretty well since you worked in close contact with our kitchen staff.”She was the one who called her father. And yet he was already saying so much. Was he trying to get her angry and make her cut the call?No, she wouldn’t budge.It’d be nice to throw some words back and forth. But first, she had to get his approval on something.“I want to know why you’d pick on an innocent girl.”“Why concern yourself with another man’s matter? Focus on slaving yourself out. I know it can be tough. But you are used to doing the dirty work all your life.” He kept fuelling my anger.“I thought the only innocent girl you picked on in this world was your daughter.”“Oh, Beta Jasper’s sister. She is not innocent. She is guilty as charged. Just as you are guilty. Since the day your mum gave birth to you, it’s a sin a
