All Chapters of The Alpha Refused to Claim Me, but the Alpha King Did: Chapter 1 - Chapter 8

Chad seemed stumped by my question, and for a moment, the line fell into silence.I saw his lips part, as if he wanted to say something. But before he could, Maddox snatched the phone from his hand."Tessa, do you have no shame? Do you think everyone is a fraud who steals the future Luna's place like you? I suggest you stop clinging to your delusions!"You should just be a good little maid to Yelena to atone for your sins, and quit doing these pathetic things that bring disgrace to the entire pack!"After that, he hung up without hesitation.Chad frowned, seemingly displeased by what Maddox had done. But in the end, he said nothing.While leaning against Chad's chest, Yelena reached out gently to pat Maddox's head, her touch soft yet carrying the air of a victor as she soothed him."There, there, Max. Don't be upset. I'm sure Tessa didn't mean it. She just needs time to come to terms with everything, that's all."Then, to Chad, she said, "Chad, I'm so happy today. Thank you for

After that day, Chad never reached out to me again, nor did he ever come to see me.In his mind, I must have been throwing a tantrum. That soon, like so many times before, I would swallow my hurt. And once I healed, I would willingly serve as Yelena's maid.He even began posting more frequently on the pack's intranet, flaunting his intimacy with Yelena. There were photos of them picking out a cradle for their pup and decorating the nursery together.I scrolled past the images with a blank expression, feeling nothing. What did any of this have to do with me anymore? Nothing. So, I ignored it all.Outside, the Alpha King's guards had already been waiting for some time. The moment they saw me, they bowed in perfect unison, their gesture wordlessly conveying the highest respect for me as the future Luna Queen.I never once looked back. Under their escort, I boarded the vehicle bound for Crescora.Inside, I blocked all of Chad and Maddox's contacts, then snapped my SIM card in half an

Chad trembled at Vivian's words, then gave a bitter smile and nodded."Yes, the ones who hurt Tessa were always just me and Maddox. We're two fools, alright." But then, a sudden fierceness flashed in his eyes. "Even so, I'll make sure you—the true culprits—pay the heaviest price for what you've done!"Dwight did nothing to stop him. With a simple wave of his hand, the pack guards stepped forward and dragged the still-screaming Yelena and Vivian into the dungeon.…Half a year later, I stood upon the stargazing terrace of Crescora, quietly learning from the royal seer how to channel the power of the stars.When the day's training was done and I returned to my chamber, the Alpha King's chief advisor was already waiting for me."Your Majesty," he greeted with a respectful bow. "Have you grown accustomed to life here in Crescora?"I removed the arm guards I wore during training and let out a soft laugh. "Very well. Better than ever before.""I'm glad to hear it," the advisor repl

Three years later, in Crescora, I stood as the Luna Queen alongside my mate—the Alpha King, Caleb Findsor—presiding over The Grand Gathering of the Packs.Dressed in the silver-white robes of the royal house, I received the homage and reverence of the pack leaders from across the continent.My mind force now easily blanketed the entire royal city, soothing the surging emotions of tens of thousands of werewolves stirred by the celebration.I was no longer the she-wolf who needed a prophecy to define her, nor one who had to cling to an Alpha to survive.By the time the celebration ended, it was already deep into the night.I walked back to my chamber alone, only to find a lone figure sitting desolately on the steps at the entrance. Instinctively, my hand tightened around the sword at my waist.Years of tempering in Crescora had long since stripped away my naïvety, leaving me ever vigilant.Perhaps stirred by the sound of my footsteps, the moonstone lamps along the path flared to l
