SELENAMy eyes twitched. "You want to stab yourself?" I wanted to laugh. What was she thinking? Did she think I was still the dumb girl she used to know? If she thought boasting would make me change my mind, then she was wrong. The Selene I knew wasn't strong enough to hurt herself. No, she wouldn't stab herself just to make me stay. Especially not when she had already gained the favor of the triplet Alphas and their beta. Instead, she would do everything to stay alive. "I will, Selena." She mouthed. "If my death will give you the happiness you deserve, then I will do it." My eyes glinted with coldness, and I slapped her hard across the face. "Don't try to manipulate me!" I yelled at her. My face crumbled with disgust. "What? Would you even twist the matter now? My happiness comes from your death? You are evil, Selene. You are evil." I spat. Selene staggered backward with the slap, and blood dripped from the corner of her mouth. But she made no sound as she wiped the blood a

SELENAMy lips trembled, unable to utter the word in my mind. All I could do was stare at Alpha Raviel foolishly. Who, on the other hand, tilted his head with a hint of confusion in his deep golden eyes, making him look really cute. My cheeks reddened at the thought. But then, he really brought me to his room? Not only did he wait on me, but he also kept me in his room. What did this mean?The last time King Jared had taken care of me in his room was the last, but that was understandable, as I was 'Selena' back then. What about now? The alpha before me clearly didn't know my true identity. Was my assumption correct? Was he truly in love with Selene?If this were the case, then maybe I might have a chance to live in the castle even if Selene took my identity. With Alpha Raviel's protection, being able to live freely wouldn't be too much. However, I couldn't conclude too early. What if he was only being nice?Though, he didn't need to show so much kindness to a mere slave. But who

SELENE The walk was long and lonely. My legs were shaking and swollen, but the road seemed endless. I raised my fingers to the sky, and my face scrunched up in anger. "Moon Goddess, didn't you promise me Selena was here and I could find her if I walked down. I've been walking for so long, but there's no one here." I said in annoyance. But there was no response. The sky stopped responding. The moon goddess seemed to have lost her temper with me after asking her the same question more than a hundred times already. The journey began a long time ago. I had woken up in the room I shared with Selena in our parents' house, but Selena was no longer beside me. She was gone. I asked everyone at home, but all they said was that Selena was... gone. And she would never return to me. I knew they were lying. Selena wouldn't leave me that way. I ran to the field to find her. I searched under the flowers. A place I knew she always hid whenever our mother tried to beat her, but s

SELENA"You're better now, right?" I asked. But even I already knew the answer. Rosiness had returned to her cheeks, and her eyes were as bright as ever. The energy surrounding her was no longer weak either, meaning she was out of danger and properly rested. Seeing that, I breathed in relief and stood up. "Let's go out and appreciate the Alphas. If not for them, things might have gotten really complicated back there." I mentioned. That was right. If the Alphas hadn't brought us back in time, maybe I would have survived, but what about Selene? With the loss of blood and her initial weak state, she might not have survived. Selene must have also thought this way as she nodded in agreement and stood up from the bed. She held my hand, and we both walked toward the door, but just as she was about to open the door, she stopped. I raised a brow, confused at what she was doing. Selene turned to face me, and her initially bright eyes seemed to have dimmed a lot. A hint of awkwardness s

SELENA"Do you know her, too?" Alpha Raviel asked. His tone was almost interrogating. My heart skipped a beat. My biggest fear seemed to be coming true. Alpha Raviel seemed to have suspected something was wrong...I glanced at Alpha Drake, and my eyes flashed with pleas, desperately hoping he would understand me. If the truth were exposed now. Would I be killed, or would Selene be killed? No. The secret had to remain hidden. Only then would Selene be okay, and we would both be happy. Alpha Drake's lips slowly parted. His eyes lingered on me, and mixed emotions crossed them. Confusion? Anger? Or disappointment that I didn't acknowledge him?I felt bitter. "No. I only know Selene." I heard him say. His voice was low and casual to my ears, but upon closer notice, I realised he sounded restrained. He must be angry..."But you called Selena earlier." Alpha Raviel pointed out. He wouldn't easily be deceived. I fidgeted with my fingers as I waited for Alpha Drake's reply to his i
