Chapter oneAnabelle Pov“This lady is unprepared, according to our pack tradition, a lady cannot rule the Kam kingdom,” my Uncle, Aiden Raven, said in a cold, manipulative tone.Standing before the council and elders, with his hands folded behind his back.“A lady who cannot control her emotions, nor her father's legacy, would bring an end to the pack as Luna,” Raven's voice echoed through the wall.Elders centred the wall, their faces carrying the tension of the hall. “That's true! We can't be ruled by a young lady,” one elder said with his face carved with tension."Our pack would be destroyed if such a thing were to happen." I knelt down in the middle of the hall, breathing heavily, my knee feeling the cold of the carved rock. This council has always been the place my late parents gathered, laughed and made decisions. But now it's filled with betrayal and tension.Everyone in the hall held doubt… doubt carved by Raven.“A Luna who can't control her emotions would bring danger to

Chapter three Anabelle Pov “Anabelle… what am I hearing, my lady?”“The council has made their final verdict, and you are being sent to Alpha Roman.” Mira, my maid, voiced out.“My lady, why did you allow it…?” she signaled.“You've always been strong and bold, but now you allow them to sell you like a puppet.”“Fangspire is not just a pack but a mighty kingdom. Anything that goes there never comes back, and if it does, it is never brought back the same.” She winked.I didn't respond, my throat was tightened swallowed by the truth I was running from.“Mira, my father's legacy comes before anything. He entrusted everything to me. I can't just sit and watch everything taken away.” I voiced out.“I will be fine, dear and please take care of the house while I'm gone.”“Anabelle… I'm going to miss you,” she cried out, and they embraced each other.“Where's Anabelle,” a voice echoed in the mansion!“Mira, go back to your station.” Uncle Raven is coming, and I don't want him to see you clo

Chapter fiveAnabelle Pov A loud knock was heard on my door, loud enough to wake me from sleep. The sky isn't bright, nor were the birds already chirping.“Who could be knocking this early?” I asked myself.I opened the door only to see the sharp reddish eyes of Roman, looking like he was angered.“Who would have entered his trap this early morning…?” I whispered.“Didn't you read the law book?” his voice interrupted my thought.My guards showed you my law book, immediately after your arrival. I hope you went through it; if not, here won't contain us.“Yes, I read everything.”“Then why are you still sleeping?” your mate is up doing their morning training, and you are lazing around.“Do you think this is your kingdom?” My rules must be followed by everyone here, including you.“It's just 3:00 a.m, Alpha Roman.” It's still dawn when normal people sleep.“Why would you wake me so early?” I said with boldness.“Lady, you aren't allowed to question me. He raised his hand so close!I drew

Chapter seven Anabelle Pov “I accept the contract, Alpha Roman.” I replied, bowing my head.The castle hall stood silent, no single voice was heard but only their eyes were seen glued to me.Their eyes scanned my every movement in shock. Like I had said something that was hilarious and shameful.“I hope you know what you are signing up for,” Roman’s voice broke through the quiet hall.“Yes, Alpha Roman, I am ready to take that bait for my artistic skill.” I said boldly.“The training academy isn't a baby place, even men who go there don't come out the same.” He said sarcastically.“What makes the only daughter of the late Alpha Aiden think she can surpass that?” His voice echoed through the walls.His expression was so mocking, acting like he was happy I fell directly into his trap.“I'm Anabelle Aiden, you should know I am not a weak woman.” I said, my inner wolf shaking.“I will accept this bait, and try my best to win every task.” I said bowing my head.“That's okay Anabelle, let

Chapter nineAnabelle’s PovIt was as if time was told to seize, I was getting more frozen but it wasn't over.My face was pale from the heat, I heard it's over when the full moon disappears. Which would only happen after eighteen hours.“Please I can't stay here longer, how many minutes is left?!” I shouted, my throat tightened.“It's eight more minutes, Ma,” the leader said.“Please open the door, I can't do this.” I said weakly.“I said you can't stand this,” a loud voice laughed out. It was Alpha's Roman voice.My worst nightmare has finally seen my weakness.“I knew you won't reach the end of this, consider the bait closed once you're out before the stipulated time.” His voice echoed through the walls.“Open the door, then let her out!” He shouted.I'm Anabelle Aiden, I can't be seen weak. I must complete this task.A sudden strength filled my body, I could breathe and overcome the heat.“Come out, boss said you couldn't finish.” The leader spoke.“I haven't finished the task, I
