ALPHA JASPERI waited for Selene to round up her makeup, checking my reflection in the full length mirror in the hall. The robe was knee length, but it gave me the perfect royalty look. Anybody who me would know instantly that I was different from the rest. That had always been my plan, to stand out from the rest. That was how I had become an Alpha, from striving to become different, from wanting so badly to be different from the rest that I had actually become very different, way different even beyond my expectations.If there was anything I wanted, it was for Ayra to be on my arm and not Selene. I missed her already, and the few days I have spent outside her chambers at night have not been very friendly. Is this what I called a temporary arrangement? Is this what I had referred to as the meantime till she was delivered of her child?It was slowly striking me that even if Ayra was delivered of my offspring,I wasn't going to let her go just like that. She was my responsibility, the mo

Arya PovWhen the Alpha approached, In curtsey, I bowed, then raised my head to meet his gaze. It was different from the way he looked at me. That familiar spark was gone. What could be wrong? Despite the heat of the wine in my system, my head was telling me that something serious was going on. So even though I was a little drunk, I was able to control myself just fine.“Repeat what you told me in the car, Selene.”Bracing up, I watched Selene take a deep breath before she began to explain. “Ayra Scotler came to my room and stole my necklace. The prized possession my mother gave me before she died.”“The necklace with a silver crescent sign?”“Yes, that one. I was in the bathroom when I saw her steal into the room and carry it ontop of my bedside table.”The noise that followed her announcement was painful to hear. The gasps that followed a few minutes later told me the story that I wanted to know–that everyone was looking at me and expecting me to say something. My heart in my hands

Alpha Jasper I watched Ayra bow before me, and it took me a huge deal of self control to restrain myself from taking her in my arms and raining kisses on her head. She was so beautiful in the black gown that she was putting on that I wondered if Selene would ever match up to her. Pregnancies were supposed to stress a woman,but in Ayra, the reverse seemed to be the case. She was ever glowing, ever radiating, and I looked at her and was proud that indeed, this was the mother of my offspring.I gritted my teeth together, swallowing my smile. I was showing her that I was annoyed by her behavior, that I was angry with what she had done to Selene, if indeed she had taken the necklace.Threading on cautious grounds, I faced Selene instead.“Repeat what you told me in the car, Selene.”I watched Selene purse her lips before speaking up. A crowd had started to form slowly, and I desperately wanted to tell them to go away. But I had no control over this type of crowd. “Ayra Scotler came to m

Sofero PovJust before the ball started, I went to take care of Arya's dress, ironing and making sure it was in perfect shape for her.She was like a sister I have never had; even though we weren't in the same rank, she treated me well,not rubbing my wounds on my face and reminding me how low life I am, just like Selene does.She was kind and accommodating; sometimes I have wished she could take away the Luna position from Selena and take over as Luna. The world needed to see how kindhearted she is, but I guess she wasn't interested in the throne.Why was she different from the others? I know how many could kill given the slightest opportunity to be the fated mate of the Alpha. But Arya was humble and down to earth.I folded her ready clothes to drop them off in her chambers. I knew I wouldn't be able to pay her off for her kindness, and it pierced my heart badly at what I was about to do. I had no choice.As I neared Arya's chambers, I saw Luna Selena looking around like a thief on h

Selena PovThe piercing eyes of the people around her made Selene feel so much guilt.She couldn't stand under her feet any more. She was scared and dejected, with anger boiling through her like venom. Who could be the man who defended her? Has she enchanted everyone again? Why was everyone defending her? She once wished the people would cast down on Arya and torture her with their words, but her plans were scattered. I put that necklace in there; who could have removed it? Did anyone see me while I was going into her room? I thought to myself.The air was tight; nobody gave me attention, not even Luna. I had successfully washed my linen in public. The anger I had towards her was bigger and bigger this time. I clenched my fist. Everyone was paying attention to the highlight of the event, while I heard nothing just deep in my thoughts. I had watched as Alpha Jasper took Arya away through the exit.Was he going to look at me after this? Is it all about Arya Arya Arya everywhere I go

ALICE MORGANI slipped into the convertible, which was backed outside. I had my instrument at the side of the car. My heart was heavy."Jeffrey, take me to the cemetery." The engine came to life, and the car started in motion. I watched through the window as we passed several pack members going about their business.The morning was still young, and the sun rays danced across the sky, painting the clouds in a warm palette of orange and pink.I was on my way to the cemetery to show my respect to my father and little brother. The vacuum created through my heart was still open and couldn't be filled until I got my own tears of freshness.I could still remember our last conversation before he was shut out of the world. If only I could still have more time with him.If only I could still have his companion and his kind words, filled with so much wisdom. Now I was left with nothing but memories that still haunt me every time I close my eyes to sleep.The only eyes I have in the world were br

Selena stood in front of her dressing mirror with her head facing down."How could I?" she clenched her fist together. Her thoughts consumed her; she had never felt the ground opening up and swallowing her. She was consumed with embarrassment lingering through her veins.And all she could do was blame an unfortunate being. Arya Scotler. How could she have so many effects on her even in her absence?Selena could see the eyes of the crowd that looked down on her with so much disappointment in their eyes.This wasn't her; what happened to her? The crowd murmured, and she just couldn't help herself standing there at the podium. No one was coming to rescue her; no one was coming to take away the shame buried deep in her.She heard footsteps approaching, but she was too scared to look at the person. She was scared of herself. Something that has never happened to her before. She was calm, but her breathing accelerated each minute as the crowd murmured.Wolves talk in twos and threes. Frust

"Sofera," Arya called behind my back when I was almost close to the door.I turned around with my head bowed to the ground."Yes, my lady, do you need anything?" She sighed. I knew what she was about to say—even a blind man could notice my change of altitude."I will be going for a walk in the garden when the sun goes down, and I want you to come along with me," she said, her eyes observing my every movement.I knew she noticed the slight change in me but blamed it based on the headache that I gave; she didn't want to press on."Take some rest after serving me breakfast; that will be all for now." I took a deep breath before walking away.Her systems and body seem to react differently to her mind. Her mind was set on stones while her body quivered.As the sun's rays hid behind the horizon, it was almost close to nightfall. Arya walked hand in hand with her personal maid, Sofera. "The doctor asked me to exercise more frequently in anticipation for the delivery," Arya began a conversa

Alice was pacing from one end of the room to the other. She felt so uneasy. She just couldn't understand why Damian had suddenly changed. Her sweet heart wasn't the same as usual.They were only engrossed in so many arguments lately; he even nags at her at every instance and even insults her, telling her how she couldn't even boil an egg.This was me before, and he knew of all of these before we got married. Why did he change all of a sudden? Now everything I do irritates him. I could feel the distance between us going apart day by day.Why not talk to him about it? My instinct said.There is no need to; he should accept you the way you are. The only one said.The heavy burden of Alpha Damian changes was heavy on my shoulder, so I decided to do something and learn how to cook, at least since it was his problem. I couldn't allow him to slip off my fingers.I took out my phone and watched some procedures. I couldn't let my pride down by asking one of the maids to teach me.They can eas

Sofero..I watched as Arya narrated her ordeal to me; her voice echoed down the room. It was full of pain. I was quiet; just her voice and the cranky noise from the cricket were all I heard.I felt pity for her as she went on; at some point she had to stop and allow the tears to pour down. I couldn't believe she passed through all that; it hurts me more that I was going to add more to her pain.When she mentioned her pack, my eyes widened in surprise. Memories keep flooding my head—painful memories I wanted to keep hidden. I heard all her stories with rapt attention. At some point, her voice cracked, and she sniffed. She told me all and ended it with these words."Here I am, Sofera. I'm still wondering what will become of my fate here. I just wanted a father figure for my pup," she said, rubbing her stomach, which was getting bigger and bigger with each passing day.Then I began to wonder why Alpha Jasper visited the Ember Moon. Ember Moon and Silver Crescent were core enemies.How
