Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Mermaid Princess Rejects the Alpha: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 8

I was a mermaid and the princess of the deep sea. A hundred years ago, I traded the one thing the merfolk prized most—my ethereal singing voice—with a sea witch in exchange for a pair of legs. From that moment on, I became the woman Silas Walker loved above all others. To prove his love for me, he personally cultivated 1,000 moonlight lilies. The flowers could only bloom when nourished by Alpha blood, and it took him three full years before they finally blossomed.Once, when my back had been badly burned, Silas even ventured into the Forbidden Forest in search of medicinal herbs to heal me. That journey cost him more than half his strength, and his wolf fell into a deep slumber for an entire month before awakening again. "Annelise, as long as you're safe, I'm willing to give up everything," he had said when he woke, holding me in his arms. At the time, his voice was so gentle, and it almost unmade me.But now, all of it had become a cruel joke. On my birthday, I hid in the

I followed close behind as Silas headed for the helpers' quarters. Helena was slumped on the floor, tears streaming down her face. The moment she saw Silas, she cried even harder.She rushed toward him and tried to throw her arms around him, but he pushed her away, saying, "I warned you not to show up! From this moment on, you're fired. Get out!"Through her sobs, Helena pleaded, "I missed you too much, Alpha Silas. I couldn't stop myself from going to the banquet. Please… Don't send me away.""You hurt Annelise. You have to leave. Either you go on your own, or I'll have you expelled from the pack."Almost immediately, Helena blurted, "I just wanted to tell you that I'm pregnant. Please don't send me away!"Silas' face lit up with barely contained excitement. "Really? Fine. For the sake of the pup, I'll give you one last chance. Do not appear in front of Annelise again, or I won't hesitate to expel you from the pack."Helena nodded obediently.Seeing that, I turned to leave.

Not long after, Silas found the pregnancy test I had discarded in my room's trash can. It was only then that he realized the day he had gone to the healing center with Helena for her checkup, I had found out I was pregnant too."So, Annie is carrying my offspring… Yet, I…" he muttered. "No. I will bring her and our offspring back!"Silas then turned to his subordinates and roared, "Search every ancient tome about the deep sea! I don't care what it takes. Find a way to open the glacier!"His voice echoed through the room. The subordinates trembled in fear, nodding frantically before scrambling out. Silas collapsed onto the floor, clutching his head in his hands. Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted a memory crystal I had left forgotten in the corner of the room. He picked it up. As his fingers brushed the crystal, a faint glow shimmered, and visions appeared within. In the vision, Helena's lips curled into a mocking smile as she hissed, "You're just someone who can barely

Silas, on the other hand, had spent a fortune buying books and consulting countless experts. In the end, he discovered a reference to a transoceanic passage in ancient records.Within the passage, violent currents tore at his body. Each step he took drew him closer to death. Even as an Alpha and with his wolf fully awakened, Silas' powers were completely restrained within the passage. He could rely on nothing but his own physical strength.Yet, one thought consumed him. He had to find me and plead for my forgiveness.…When Silas finally reached the deep sea, he staggered into the merfolk ceremony, disheveled and exhausted.I was clad in an exquisite merfolk ceremonial gown, and my singing resonated through the water. The sight hit Silas like a bolt of lightning.Beside me stood Drake. When our eyes met, we smiled at each other. The unspoken understanding and warmth between us struck Silas like a knife to the heart. He staggered forward, stripped of all Alpha pride, and dropp
