All Chapters of Alpha's Fake Matebond: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

10 Chapters

Chapter 1

My destined Alpha, so he could be with his mistress Vivian out in the open, faked losing his mate-sense for me after an "attack."He sneered that I couldn't leave him, that even if I knew the truth, I’d just meekly give up my Luna title and stay in the pack, swallowing my pride.But little did they know, I had a huge "surprise" cooked up for them, just waiting for them to walk right into my trap."There's a problem with the mate bond between Sophia and me," Ethan announced, having gathered all the key pack members in the meeting room.Beta Marcus frowned. "Alpha, what do you mean by that?""I've lost my mate-sense for Sophia," Ethan said, slowly and clearly. "Instead, I feel a true mate connection with Vivian."I kept my face perfectly still, like I was listening to a story about someone else.Vivian squeezed Ethan's hand, tears welling in her eyes. "We didn't expect this either, but the mate bond is the Moon Goddess's will. We can't fight it.""So," Ethan took a deep breath, "from tod

"Alpha Ethan, Luna Sophia, are you certain you wish to dissolve your mate bond?" Elder Grace's voice was grave. "This decision cannot be undone."I stood before the Elders' altar and nodded calmly. "I'm sure."Ethan stood beside me, his expression a mess. On the way over, he'd suddenly grabbed my arm."Sophia, do we really have to go through with this?" There was a hint of panic in his voice. "Maybe we can reconsider...""Didn't you lose your connection to me?" I shot back. "Breaking the bond should be a relief for you."He faltered for a moment, then quickly smoothed his expression. "Right... yes. I'm just worried you'll have a hard time adjusting."Such a terrible actor.And now, in front of the Elder, he was putting on another show of trying to get me to stay."Sophia, do you remember our mating ceremony?" Ethan stared into my eyes. "That night, under the moonlight, we promised to be together forever...""Of course, I remember," I cut him off. "And I also remember what you told my f

Chapter 3

Three days after moving out of the pack house, I rented an apartment downtown.No Alpha pressure, no pack duties, no endless healing. For the first time, I actually felt some peace and quiet.I was on my balcony, enjoying a coffee, when my phone rang."Sophia!" Marcus sounded frantic. "You have to come back!""What's up?" I asked, not really caring."The full moon ceremony! The full moon's in four days, and..." His voice was shaking. "The preparations are a disaster!"I almost laughed."Not my problem, Marcus. You guys have a new Luna.""But Vivian doesn't know what she's doing! The herbs for the sacred ritual, the blessing chants, how to even speak to the Moon Goddess... she's clueless!""And what does she have to say about it?"Marcus paused. "She says she'll learn... but we only have four days! Sophia, if the full moon ceremony fails, the whole pack will lose the Moon Goddess's blessing!"I took a sip of my coffee. "Yeah, that does sound pretty bad.""So, will you come back and help

Chapter 4

Ethan’s smug grin froze.Vivian looked at Ethan, confused. "What do you mean? I did everything the book said...""The book? What book?!" Elder Grace was practically roaring. "The real heart of the sacred ritual isn't in any book! It takes secret knowledge, passed down from Luna to Luna for generations!"Ethan’s face went white. "Elder Grace, what exactly happened?""Exactly? You want to know exactly?" Elder Grace's voice turned icy. "The Blood Moon pack has sent a challenge! They say we've lost the Moon Goddess's protection and don't deserve our territory anymore!"Murmurs rippled through the banquet hall."And the Silver Fang pack," Grace went on, "they're demanding we hand over the eastern hunting grounds, or it's war!""What?!" Ethan yelled, shocked. "How dare they...""Oh, they dare alright!" Elder Grace cut him off. "Because right now, we're just a bunch of regular werewolves without the goddess's blessing! Without the sacred ritual's protection, we're lambs to the slaughter for t

Chapter 5

I froze."What?"Vivian realized she’d let something slip and looked at Ethan, flustered."You've messed up healing rituals before?" I pressed."Th-that was just an accident..." Vivian stammered.A memory flashed in my mind.Two years ago, a bad infection swept through the pack. I was away at a medical conference, and the pack needed urgent treatment.By the time I got back, three pack members were dead, and a dozen more were seriously ill.Ethan told me it was because "some trainee healer used the wrong potion formula."That trainee healer was kicked out immediately, and no one ever mentioned her name again.The Elder Council chewed me out, saying the tragedy was due to my "lack of oversight." My Luna rank was dropped a level, and it took me a whole six months to get it back."It was you." I looked at Vivian. "That trainee healer two years ago, that was you."Vivian’s face went pale. "I...""You mixed up the silver root and wolfs bane, turning the potion into poison." I walked towards

"Don't be like that, Sophia," Ethan said, sounding desperate. "Breaking the mate bond was just... it was a spur-of-the-moment thing. We can re...""Restart what?" I looked at him coldly."Start over." Ethan took a deep breath. "Today's mate ceremony doesn't count. Me and Vivian, that was just to keep the pack members calm. You're the one who really matters."Vivian’s eyes widened. "Ethan, what are you saying?""Vivian," Ethan turned to her, his tone stern, "go apologize to Sophia. Apologize for screwing everything up.""Why should I apologize?" Vivian shot back, her voice shrill. "I tried my best!""Tried your best?" Ethan fumed. "Your 'best' almost destroyed the entire pack! Now apologize, or all those designer jewels and limited-edition handbags are going back!"Hearing "designer jewels," I couldn't help but sneer.I remembered three years ago, I’d wanted a simple white gold necklace, three thousand dollars. I wanted to buy it for our mate anniversary.What did Ethan say then?"Sophi

Chapter 7

Ethan's voice, laced with Alpha command, boomed behind me.I stopped and slowly turned around."You think your Alpha command still works on me?" I sneered. "We broke the mate bond, remember?"Ethan's face changed, and he reined in his aura. "That's not what I meant...""Then what did you mean?" I looked him straight in the eye. "Using your Alpha power to force your ex-mate to obey?""I just want you to think about the pack!" Ethan's voice rose. "You can't be this selfish! So many lives are on the line, and you only care about some human's wedding?""Selfish?" His words ticked me off. "Ethan, who are you to call me selfish?"Vivian walked over then, looking smug. "That's right. As the former Luna, you have to help the pack through this crisis. It's your duty!""Duty?" I looked at Vivian. "Excuse me, current Luna, that's your duty, not mine.""But I don't know how..." Vivian said, as if it were obvious."That's your problem," I cut her off. "If you don't know how, then learn. If you're n

Chapter 8

After Sarah's wedding, it was ten PM by the time I got back to my apartment.Eighteen missed calls on my phone, all from Ethan.And a string of texts:"Sophia, we need to talk.""The pack's situation is getting worse.""Blood Moon pack sent an ultimatum this afternoon. We have 48 hours to hand over the territory.""Silver Fang pack sent people too. They're demanding immediate surrender.""Sophia, I know you're still mad, but this isn't the time to be stubborn.""Answer me! That's an order!"That last message really set me off.An order?I blocked his number straight away.The next morning, I was drinking coffee when the doorbell rang.I looked through the peephole. Marcus and Elder Grace were outside.I opened the door. "What can I do for you?""Sophia, we need to talk," Elder Grace said, looking exhausted. "About the pack's future.""I've already said, pack business has nothing to do with me.""But things are really serious now," Marcus said urgently. "It's not just Blood Moon and Sil

Chapter 9

"Sophia, I know you're still angry, but..." Ethan started."Angry?" I scoffed. "Ethan, you think what I'm feeling right now is anger?"He looked taken aback. "Then what is it?""Indifference," I said calmly. "I'm completely indifferent to your pack.""That's impossible!" Ethan said, agitated. "This is your home, we're your family!""Family?" I scanned the room. "When I needed support, where was this family?"Everyone looked down."Sophia, we admit we were wrong," Elder Grace said. "But now isn't the time to settle personal grudges. The whole pack is facing extinction!""Personal grudges?" I walked towards her. "Elder Grace, you think betrayal and deception are just 'personal grudges'?""I didn't mean it like that...""You run this pack into the ground, and then you expect me to save it." I cut her off. "Do you think I'm obligated to do that?""What good does it do you if the pack falls apart?" Ethan asked angrily. "These people are innocent!"I looked at him and couldn't help but laugh

Chapter 10

"No."My answer was simple and firm.Vivian stared. "What?""I don't love him anymore," I said calmly, looking at her. "Not at all."The room was dead silent.Vivian suddenly broke down, tears streaming."You don't understand! It's not just about the Alpha position!" she cried. "The Elder Council said if the pack is destroyed, Ethan will be permanently banished! He'll lose all territory, become a rogue wolf!"Ethan’s face grew even paler."And..." Vivian sobbed, "I spent most of the pack treasury...""What?" Elder Grace shot up, horrified."All those jewels, those trips, those luxury items..." Vivian cried harder. "I thought being Luna would cover those expenses, but now...""How much did you spend?" Ethan’s voice trembled."Eight hundred thousand dollars," Vivian whispered.A wave of angry shouts erupted in the room."Eight hundred thousand?" Marcus roared. "That was our emergency fund for three years!""I'll pay it back!" Vivian shrieked. "Once things settle down, I'll pay it back!"
