CHAPTER: 11 Arundel Best Actress.

Elijah wanted to hold Elara's hand, eager to pin her down on the bed and claim her as his own. But he restrained himself, knowing Elara wouldn't appreciate that. He let Elara take the lead, observing how his shy and demure girlfriend delighted in her own way.Elijah knew that after a heated argument, there would always be intense moments of affection. He understood that Elara just craved his attention and time.Elara made Elijah work for it, but he knew he'd eventually get what he wanted.She yanked Elijah's belt and tossed it aside, pushing him onto the bed causing him to sit up and gaze at Elara's beautiful face. From his position, he admired her beauty and the graceful curves of her body, realizing just how stunning Elara indeed was.Elara then straddled Elijah's thighs, brushing her long, dark hair to one side of her shoulder and wrapping her arm around his."I had no idea you could be like this, Elara," Elijah grinned, to which Elara simply smiled in response.Truth be told, she

CHAPTER: 12 Do You Accept My Gift?

"Isn't she ashamed? After dropping those words in front of the entire Reed clan, she still has the nerve to show her face today?""That omega really has some nerve. Just because she's Calisto's daughter doesn't mean she can act like that. Maybe she's just putting on a show of being nice and demure to get Alpha Elijah's attention." Various whispers and murmurs greeted Elara as she walked towards the hunting ground.Today marks the annual contest of the Forestheart pack, where all the males will go hunting and compete to catch the most prey. If a member of the Forestheart pack wins, their rank within the pack could rise, while if they're a guest or a Reed family member, they'll receive a prize or a favor from the Alpha.Every member of the pack is preparing for this event as it's their chance to climb the ranks. They're excited because it's also an opportunity to confess their feelings to their desired she-wolf. There's a saying in the pack that when a contestant gives all they've caugh

CHAPTER: 13 Treat Her Right.

Aljern took a smoke from his tobacco as he sat on the bed, with only a thin sheet covering the lower part of his body. He glanced at his pocket watch and the envelope from Fernanda containing a large sum of money."Make sure you follow my orders, alright? I'm getting impatient; I need to bring that woman down," Fernanda replied as she emerged from the bathroom, her hair still damp and clad in a white bathrobe. She settled in front of the vanity mirror and picked up the hairdryer."You're being too eager. They might catch onto your plan if Elara is suddenly found dead," Aljern commented, rising to approach Fernanda. He kissed her porcelain neck and glanced at the mirror."This money isn't enough for me to get your request. You do realize I'll have to buy those drugs on the black market," Fernanda grimaced, stepping away from Aljern to retrieve her clothes."I'll send you more. I haven't received Calisto's money yet, so you'll have to make do with what I've given you for now," Fernanda

CHAPTER: 14 All Set.

Fiona's frequent nibbling on her nails is her mannerisms whenever she's feeling anxious or unable to grasp something she deeply desires. Lately, she's been on edge, irritated by the unfolding events, and frustrated with Elara. She's puzzled by what's happening and how her stepsister managed to capture the attention of two well-known Alphas in the entire Summergrave Empire.Sure, she knew she outshone Elara in looks and held a higher rank than that omega, drawing the attention of countless suitors. Yet, why did all the desirable things she coveted seem to gravitate towards Elara?Earlier, at the hunting contest, Alpha Elijah and Alpha Damian presented their catches upon Elara. Damian, in particular, was hailed as the victor in their pack's annual hunting contest. Despite the multitude of gifts and captures offered to Fiona, she couldn't help but feel overshadowed by the attention lavished upon Elara.She felt like an outsider, barely even noticed by the people around her despite her ow

CHAPTER: 15 Lunatics.

When two Lycans are in heat and mating, they smell nothing but the scent of their mate. It's a weakness of Lycans where their awareness of their surroundings diminishes. They're solely focused on mating, oblivious to anything else, as if they're the only ones around. They couldn't care less about the world or their surroundings.That's why Elijah's heart races as he enters Elara's house. Right at the gate, he catches Damian's scent; not just that, but he also captures the sweet scent of his chosen mate, Elara.His gut tells him something fishy is going on with the two. Could Damian just drop by Elara's house at this hour for a chat? It's too coincidental that Fernanda and Fiona aren't home, as if the two have conspired and planned their rendezvous.Elijah clenches his teeth, the veins on his forehead pulsating with anger. He wants to break down the door but also to catch them in the act to expose Damian and Elara's betrayal."Right here in my territory?" Elijah mutters weakly as he sl

CHAPTER: 16 Frame Up.

Within the confines of the pack house lie designated rooms for ceremonies and other departmental affairs that constitute the Forestheart pack. Presently, the room teeming with lycans and werewolves is the rejection ceremony hall, where rejection requests within the pack are to be addressed. Among the listings is Elara's rejection request, a ceremony they wouldn't have to take if Elijah had just accepted what she wanted.When two lycans or werewolves decide to part ways or break the bond between them, both parties must acknowledge the rejection. If one disagrees, they can file a rejection request, which the council will review within the pack.'Where's Elara? Don't tell me she's backed out of her request?' Fernanda asked her daughter Fiona through the mind link.'I don't know. We came home yesterday, and Elara wasn't there, right? But she did say she was staying over at her best friend, Melody',' Fiona replied, glancing around, searching for her stepsister, who hadn't even cast a shado

CHAPTER: 17 I'm Your Luna.

Damian's words took aback Elara; she wasn't sure if they were part of their shared plan or if they held a different meaning altogether. Her nerves were on edge because Damian was incredibly convincing in front of their pack members, making her feel like she might be falling for his words.Damian glanced in Elara's direction. Their eyes met, and he noticed the mischievous grin on the Alpha's face, sending a strange sensation coursing through her entire body as if she were being electrified."Let's put an end to this ceremony," Alpha Diego's voice cut through the tension, his anger evident as he addressed the turmoil caused by his two sons. Diego held his head in his hands, bewildered by the events unfolding within Forestheart. He couldn't comprehend his son Elijah's actions or why they couldn't let go of an omega like Elara."But Alpha Diego, we can't do this! I can't let go of El—""Enough, Elijah, end this madness," Alpha Diego commanded his son sternly, then turned his gaze towards

CHAPTER: 18 Who's What?

"So, what's your next move? Will you talk to them and ask permission to leave the pack? You're definitely going to have a hard time with that request," Melody asked Elara as they dined at a restaurant in the central city of the Summergrave Empire.Within the Summergrave Empire, various creatures coexist, such as Lycans, vampires, and even myths claiming that a black dragon founded this empire. But in recent years, more mortals have been residing here, so their identities are concealed, yet they continue to live alongside these beings."I should've mentioned that matter to Alpha Diego during the rejection ceremony. I think it would've been better to talk to Alpha Diego directly rather than Elijah," Elara replied, sipping her favorite java chips drink."Hahaha, you're totally sidelining Elijah if you do that. You still regard Alpha Diego more highly than Alpha Elijah," Melody replied, taking a bite of her food.Truth be told, Alpha Diego's power still outweighs Elijah's. Elijah only obt

CHAPTER: 19 Secret.

Damian felt a sharp gaze on his back as he made his way into Forestheart's pack house. He headed towards the main building where the Reeds resided, making a beeline for his father's quarters."Alpha Diego, it's Damian," he called outside the door, abandoning formalities and preceding the courtesy of a knock. Yet, he hesitated to open the door, the muffled sounds of she-wolf whimpers emanating from his father's room.He was sure that his father and stepmother would be at odds again once Esmeralda discovered his father's misdeeds, or worse, they might end up with another sibling to share the inheritance."What do you need?" Alpha Diego asked, dismissing the she-wolf on his bed and tying his robe. Three women scattered around him, some from affluent families within the Summergrave Empire.As Damian approached, Alpha Diego opened the door, revealing the three women sprawled on his father's bed, covered only by a thin sheet.This scene wasn't new to him, so he redirected his attention to w

CHAPTER: 20 What Payment?

Elara irritably muttered as she descended the stairs, "I wonder what he will give me this time? A receipt for every penny I spent earlier?" Passing through the kitchen, she encountered Fernanda, who had just finished a phone call. Upon hearing Elara's footsteps approaching, Fernanda quickly turned and ended the call."Oh, sweetie, haven't you rested yet?" Fernanda asked, noticing that Elara was still wearing the same clothes she had on earlier, not even having changed into her pajamas and seeming like she still had somewhere to go."I need to pick up some stuff from Melody's, and I might as well crash there tonight since they're leaving for the Nightraven pack tomorrow," Elara replied. Fernanda gave her a thorough look, and Elara knew she was being assessed for honesty."Elara, sweetie. I know Calisto isn't home to watch over and lecture you, but as your stepmom, I just want to say, please take care of yourself," Fernanda responded in the sweetest tone she could muster.Deep down, Ela
