My Alpha, My War のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

Chapter One—The Highpriestess and the mark The high-priestess. I hated her. She appeared out of the temple only once in a lifetime and the moment I saw her carriage being pulled I already knew what I was in for. The red moon was nigh. The mumbles around the town knew no bounds as everyone knew what was to happen tonight. I trudged along with my basket of herbs, ready to set it on the stand where I sold my goods when I felt something prickly at the nape of my neck. It was my nerves. I’d always dreaded the red moon and everything it stood for. Every century, a Luna is chosen from the Oasis where I lived, to unite the three bloody packs that had ruled over our territory for years. This all stemmed from ancient treaty they signed eons ago, all approved by the moon goddess herself. It made no sense, no Luna had succeeded even. The power bestowed upon any lass should be an honor, but for us it was a death sentence. The three Alphas—no one had ever seen them, but we knew of th

Chapter Three—The Escape Plan The Osasis was a small territory, this meant I could easily get out in an hour if I tread carefully. The whole town had broken into a chaos, their Luna had disappeared and they were at a loss for what to do. It was unheard for one to refuse the blessings of the moon goddess herself. This was no blessing, uprooting every part of my life for a cause that was practically useless. I hid behind one of the bushes in the main square, evading the sight of the town guards who marched in pursuit of me. I had a plan—impulsive, but still a plan nonetheless. The road leading to the red moon territory was just up ahead and even I knew it was a gamble I was playing. The people of the oasis were not allowed to go into the other packs territories, but I just needed to leave at the first sight of escape. I took a deep breath and started to count; One. Two.. Thre— “There you are!” One of the officers yelled as he caught a glimpse of my mark from one of

Chapter Five—The Brazen Alphas “Nothing good ever comes out of your mouth.” Atlas grunted, “Let’s end her here and— “Let him speak.” Lucien butted in. The red eyed alpha grunted, his eyes cruel when they beamed at me. Nik, the gentlest of them all let out a brief sigh when he raked a hand through his hair. “I suggest a trial.” “A trial?” The other two chorused. A trial?? I couldn’t also help but be confused by his words. He nodded, “Yes. A trial. I suggest three trials to prove her legitimacy. We’ll test for her strength, loyalty and connection to the moon goddess.” “Hmmmm.” Lucien couldn’t help but smirk, “How do you suggest we do that?” The gentle alpha shrugged, “It’s up to us to figure that out. If she passes all the trials, then she can be accepted as the chosen one.” There was silence in the room. I dreaded it. I didn’t want this position, I never asked to be chosen by the red moon. All I wanted to do was ret

Chapter Seven—Lucien the brave(2) It was enormous. The stack of plates, ridden with mold and scum. The pots had fungus all over the rims, the silver cups already diminished from dried wine on the bodice. My nose twitched from the abrasive stench, there was barely any food in my body and it made me dizzy. He called it my first trial. I was to be a scullery maid for the red moon pack. The people of the oasis hated me and despised my very existence. I was just a healer with no regal bloodline to my name, but even then I still had a somewhat normal and dignified life. Here I was, as the newly proclaimed Luna standing in a kitchen that had a whole hive in it, being made to clean the mess of barbaric males. My eyes stung from the tears welling up in them. “Get to work.” I heard Buck grunt from behind me, wishing he would disappear, “Those pans aren’t going to scrub themselves.” I sniffled lightly, “There’s no water.” He pointed at the drum beside

Chapter Nine—Lucien the brave(4) I stared at him for a minute. Lucien had jet black hair, his eyes were golden under the sunlight that shone through the windows of his room, but i could still spot the red hue that surrounded it. Lucien was handsome, breathtaking even, i was seated right across him and it made me nervous. “Don’t be nervous.” He said, almost like he could read my mind perfectly, “Do I make you nervous?” Something had changed inside of me. I couldn’t look at him in the eye the first time we met, now i was gawking like a squawk and had the courage to speak up more which was a huge difference from how meek I was before. “You wished to kill me.” I said curtly. His brow arched, “It was in the moment. My hands were tied.” He was lying, with that wide grin on his face i knew he was a great liar. The Alphas weren’t just leaders, they were political figures who played a game and i was just starting to realize it. I just couldn’t decipher wh
