My wolf went insane after I watched my parents take their own lives right before my eyes.My childhood protector, Alexander, had to hold me every night.The only thing that can soothe my wolf is Alexander's Alpha scent.Later, Sophie, the Beta he cherished, took her own life, leaping from a bridge into the sea.Everyone thought I had pushed Sophie into the sea, so that I could have Alexander all to myself.The warmth Alexander once had for me was gone, replaced by an endless, desolate disappointment. He kept whispering, "Why... did it have to be this way?"But when a vampire’s lethal curse came for me, he still drained his Alpha strength to take the fatal blow.As he lay dying, he used his last ounce of strength to wipe a tear from my cheek."It was my fault… I spoiled you, Elena. I never should have… brought you into my pack."Alexander's parents, the former Alpha and Luna, called me a cursed Omega.They said I was a calamity, that I was the one who destroyed their proud, noble Alpha

That day, I left work with Sophie as usual.She had opened up to me a lot, and I was determined to find out the real reason why she had jumped into the sea in our past life.Everyone thought I pushed her.Even Alexander believed it.After all, I had a history.But I didn't do it.I never even touched a shred of her clothing.She had just cried and jumped on her own.I thought maybe something had happened with Sophie's family that made her suicidal."Sophie, if you're in any trouble, you have to tell me. I'll help you!"Sophie froze for a second, then her eyes reddened.She was in trouble.She was just about to speak.Suddenly, a group of rogues emerged from the shadows of the parking garage.They looked dangerous, and they were carrying weapons.I knew some self-defense from when I was younger, and my werewolf instincts allowed me to hold my own for a bit.But Sophie was not doing well.Just as a club was about to swing down on her, I didn't think twice.I threw myself in front of her.

Alexander's POVAlexander’s mind screamed at him, but his body had already moved.His Alpha instinct was a beast off its leash, dragging him toward the bridge.He saw Sophie.She was collapsed at the edge of the bridge, soaking wet, screaming Elena’s name.Why was she screaming Elena’s name?An icy fist closed around Alexander’s heart.He shoved savagely through the crowd and rushed to the railing.There was nothing below. Just the black, angry sea.His Omega. The girl he’d brought home. She was gone.No.She was supposed to be at home, waiting for him to bring back cupcakes from her favorite bakery, her favorite treat.She wasn't supposed to be... swallowed by this damned sea.Sophie told him everything.Through her tears, she said Elena had saved her."When I jumped, she fought with all her strength to pull me up… but she… she fell instead…""She said… if I died, you’d miss me for the rest of your life. She didn’t want you to be that sad."The air was punched from Alexander’s lungs.

How could it be Alexander?!The room started to spin.The department head pulled the string on another popper and announced enthusiastically,"Let's welcome our new CEO, Alpha Alexander!"That's when I noticed Sophie wasn't with him. She wasn't here.People around me started whispering."This Alpha is so intimidating… but so hot!"Ryan nudged me. "I still think my Alpha is more beautiful."I shot him a glare."That's bullshit!"My Alpha is far more handsome, my inner wolf bristled.Ryan looked baffled by my sudden outburst."Hey, what's your problem?"I clapped a hand over his mouth, trying my best to shrink into the background and mask my scent with blockers.Even though this body didn't look much like my old one at first, after three years, the resemblance was growing.Thank God I wore a mask today.Alexander had only glanced my way when he came in. He hadn't looked at me since.He definitely didn't recognize me.That night, the department head organized a team dinner to welcome the

"How could you do that to her?!" I demanded, not even realizing my voice was shaking.Alexander slowly looked up. A flash of surprise crossed his eyes when he saw it was me, but it was quickly replaced by that dead calm."She's suffered so much, and it's all because of you! How could you just stand by and do nothing?!"I let all my anger and disappointment pour out.He just watched me quietly, like I was a child throwing a tantrum.He waited until I was done before he spoke."Are you standing up for her," he stated, not asked, "or are you just angry that I didn't turn out to be the 'devoted' Alpha you imagined?"His words struck me dumb.My heart stopped for a second, then started hammering against my ribs, trying to escape."You…"He’d known it was me all along.He started walking toward me, one step at a time.Useless.Two lifetimes, two different bodies, no blood relation to Alexander whatsoever.Yet I was completely pinned by his Alpha bloodline.I learned today that even running a
