Semua Bab My Alpha, His Lie: Bab 1 - Bab 9

'Is there some kind of misunderstanding? Wayne even replaced his assistant with a male werewolf for your sake.'My inner wolf, Moonshade, sounded puzzled.Footsteps approached from behind.I quickly slipped the ultrasound report into the book, took a deep breath, and pretended to read."Nina, what are you reading?"Wayne Smith wrapped his arms around me from behind. He rested his chin on my shoulder.I closed the book."Nothing much. It's just an old book about human history."Where did you go today? Why did you come back so late?"He answered me without hesitation. "I was in the council chamber all day. We were discussing the takeover of the Frost Moon Pack's territory."He retrieved a necklace. Inside a box, a pink diamond sparkled under the lights."A late Valentine's Day gift. Do you like it?"He helped me put it on before immediately planting a warm kiss on the nape of my neck."I swear, you're the only one I love," he said.In his sincere-looking eyes, I could clear

To make it up to me, Wayne became unusually attentive."Nina, once we get to the island, no one will bother us."The car cruised smoothly toward the private airstrip. The scenery outside was a blur as we sped by.In a daze, I thought back to the time when the Azure Pack and the Silver Moon Pack had just formed their alliance.Wayne and I were childhood sweethearts. Every werewolf we knew was envious of our relationship.Back then, the love in his eyes had been real.Now, his betrayal and schemes were just as real.Halfway through the trip, his phone rang again.Wayne glanced at the caller ID, and his expression changed instantly.He slammed on the brakes and pulled over to the side of the road.He hurriedly unloaded my luggage from the trunk."Nina, something urgent has come up in the pack. I have to deal with it right now!"Wait here for me. I'll come back to pick you up as soon as I'm done!"He didn't even wait for my response before driving off and leaving only a cloud

When I woke up again, I was already back in the Azure Pack.I recognized Dad sitting by the bedside. I also recognized every elder in the pack.I remembered that I was Nina, the princess of the Azure Pack.But in my mind, an entire decade of memories had vanished. It left behind a hollow void that could never be filled.When Dad saw that I was awake, pain flickered in his eyes.He hesitated for a moment before asking carefully, "Nina, do you remember the Silver Moon Pack?"I looked at him in confusion and tried to recall anything related to what he said."Silver Moon Pack?"I frowned."Are they our allies? Or are they enemies?"When he heard that, he let out a long sigh of relief and stroked my head."They're enemies," he said simply."That's all you need to remember."I nodded. I didn't know why, but I trusted Dad without question.Although my memories were gone, the forced severing of the mate bond had left my body unusually weak.Dad ordered me to remain in the pack a

Two weeks later, the annual trade summit, which was jointly hosted by several major surrounding werewolf packs, took place as scheduled.Wayne, as the Alpha of Silver Moon Pack, attended in full regalia.He had shaken off the gloom of the past few days and returned to his confident, commanding self.He was certain that I would use this opportunity, with all the pack leaders present, to come to him and seek reconciliation. After all, Azure Pack couldn't rely on Sunfire Pack forever.He had already prepared his speech. He was ready to give me a graceful way out and, at the same time, put Lucas in his place.The summit officially began, and guests slowly filled the hall.At that moment, a small commotion arose at the entrance.Wayne instinctively looked up.Slowly, I entered arm-in-arm with Lucas.There was a smile on my face.It was a stark contrast to the way I had once been when I was by his side.Wayne's heart skipped a beat.He straightened his collar and deliberately ste

A month later, the Azure Pack and Sunfire Pack officially announced their union to the world.Nina of the Azure Pack would form a mate bond with Lucas, Alpha of the Sunfire Pack, during a grand ceremony on the next full moon.The news landed like a final judgment that broke Wayne completely.He lost his mind.Ignoring the Silver Moon Pack council's impeachment for illegally mobilizing troops and throwing the pack into economic chaos, and deaf to every warning and plea, Wayne went alone to the Azure Pack on the day of the bonding ceremony.He was going to stop the ceremony.He was going to take his Luna back.What awaited him instead was ironclad security. Elite werewolves from both packs stood guard.He never came close to the ceremonial grounds. Each time he tried to force his way through, he was beaten back, bloodied and broken.In the end, all he could do was hide in the trees along a distant cliff. His eyes were bloodshot as he stared at the brightly lit ritual platform.
