Все главы My Alpha's 52nd "No": Глава 1 - Глава 6

Today marked the 52nd time Kyle Thornwood and I tried to complete our marking ceremony. This time I didn't invite any outsiders. The only witnesses were the most trusted members of our families.I pushed through the claw wounds from our last battle, personally checking every detail of the ceremony site while he couldn't be bothered to focus.Right now, inside the Alpha's tent, he was using his power to soothe Elara Bennett, who had "accidentally" twisted her ankle. Omegas were always so delicate.My family's warriors watched the scene with cold expressions. One of the elders murmured to me, "Princess Layla, just look at him. When has he ever respected the honor of the Silvermoon royal bloodline?"Everyone knew how important this ceremony was for us. It was the union of two packs, the binding of our souls.But just as the moon reached its peak and the ceremony was about to begin, Kyle, who should have been standing beside me, chose to abandon it. Again.I chased after him, but he

After saying goodbye to Simon, I returned to my camp to hand over my duties. Yara Moss, the she-wolf taking over for me, was furious on my behalf."Layla, you're really leaving?

Elara explained carefully.The wolves around us looked at me with pity. Everyone knew an Alpha's personal token could only be worn by the future Luna.

Kyle hung his head and mumbled, "Then I'll go to the Northern Territories to find her."Meanwhile, I returned to Silvermoon City. My parents waited for me at the city gates, in their massive silver wolf forms.I threw myself into their embrace, choking up. "Father, Mother…"Father nuzzled my cheek with his head. "It's good you're home."After two days of rest, I threw myself back into my princess training. Though demanding, I felt lighter and happier than I had in years.Three months later, I successfully passed the royal family's final trial. My parents prepared a grand celebration feast for me.Midway through the banquet, a guard reported that an outsider was requesting an audience. I stepped out and found myself face-to-face with Kyle. I hadn't seen him in three months."Layla…"He looked much thinner, his hair disheveled and matted. Knowing my parents despised him, I immediately pulled him outside the city."How did you know I was here?""It took me a long time to find yo
