Chapter 1

My father was the Alpha of the Greyridge pack, so not a single soul in the entire pack dared to disobey him.However, when compared to an Alpha King who had the most ancient and noble blood of the werewolves flowing through him, Dad's influence and power were insignificant. Because of this, Dad's biggest dream had always been for one of his daughters to become the mate of a werewolf with such a superior bloodline, thereby bringing the Greyridge pack to glory.In our first life, the Alpha King, Jayden Stolt, had been inspecting our pack when he said he had smelled his mate's scent.Dad was overjoyed and immediately believed that it was my older sister, Jenna Thornton. She had been a beauty even when young, and her body exuded such a strong scent of roses that it could be smelled ten feet away. Not a single werewolf in our pack wasn't attracted to her.Hence, Dad personally selected a bright, eye-catching red dress for her and sent her off on the carriage that would bring her to th

The moment the royal emissary finished speaking, a dead silence descended upon the hall. Everyone had gone pale with fright and was holding their breaths fearfully.Dad was about to say something more, but the royal emissary had already turned to leave. Outside the window was a sea of black—the royal guards of the Alpha King.This time, there really was no escape for us!Some people started to cry softly as despair loomed heavy over everyone's heads.Sweat beaded Dad's forehead, and his voice had even changed pitch due to his overwhelming anxiety. "Just who exactly is the Alpha King's fated mate? If we still fail to find her within the hour, we're all going to die!"Just as everyone was thinking desperately of a plan, Jenna suddenly exclaimed, "Dad, I just remembered something! The night the Alpha King stayed at our house, I think I saw him heading in the direction of Annabelle's room!"That piece of information had everyone stunned.Dad's head whipped around as he questioned, "

Back then, Jayden still wasn't the Alpha King yet. Instead, he was just one of the many overlooked heirs.I found him in the forest. His wolf spirit had been severely damaged, and he was on the brink of death. If I had stumbled upon him any later, he would've died right there.Using a forbidden spell my witch mother had taught me before her death, I transferred my wolf spirit to him and saved his life.It was because he had fused with my wolf spirit that he gained newfound power, eventually leading to him becoming the Alpha King.As for me, since I lost my wolf spirit, I became nothing more than a cripple.When I finished my story, everyone was dumbfounded.Malia crossed her arms before her chest and scoffed disdainfully. "You transferred your wolf spirit to him? Even Dad might not know how to perform such a forbidden spell, yet you're saying you do? Don't make up such a nonsensical story just because you're trying to justify the fact that you don't have a wolf spirit!"Vanessa

Jenna's face twisted into a puzzled expression. "But if even his savior isn't who he's looking for, just who does he want?"Malia mocked, "I told you she was lying! Yet you all actually believe her? If she really had saved the life of the Alpha King, why would he kill our entire pack? If you ask me, Annabelle must have offended him somehow. That's why he's using this whole thing as an excuse to kill us all! It doesn't matter who we send to him!"A look of realization crossed Vanessa's face. "Malia is right! Annabelle must have offended the Alpha King, and now, we've been dragged into this mess with her! We should just offer Annabelle up to him and have him kill her in return for letting the rest of us live."For a brief moment, Dad hesitated as he murmured softly, "Everyone will die if we don't hand someone over. But if we send the wrong person, we'll still all be killed…"Then, he turned to me with a pleading look in his eyes. "Annabelle, at the end of the day, you once saved his

Dad swiftly grabbed my shoulders. "You know who it is? Then tell us, quickly!" Nonetheless, I remained silent as I looked over all the she-wolves still reliving their horrifying deaths.Jenna's makeup was a ruined mess from her tears, and Malia was curled up in a corner of the room. Meanwhile, Vanessa was still trembling from her fear. The maids all had despairing looks on their faces, as though they were lambs awaiting slaughter.At last, I focused my attention on Dad."Dad, the one the Alpha King is looking for is indeed in this house, but I can't say anything just yet."Hearing that, Vanessa immediately charged forward and landed a resounding slap on my cheek, causing my head to snap to the side."You little bitch! Is this really the time to be acting all mysterious? Are you trying to take the whole pack to the grave with you?"Malia also lunged at me to grab my collar, her face twisted into a snarl. "Hurry up and tell us, or I'll kill you right now!"My ears were ringing f

The truth caused my heart to pound wildly in my chest.Jayden had been right—the person he was looking for was in this pack. I just hadn't expected the truth to be something like this.Noting the change in my expression, Dad was momentarily surprised before he asked tentatively, "Annabelle, we're running out of time. Even if you can't tell us the name, can you at least let us know who we should send this time?"I took a deep breath and gazed out the window at the black, horse-drawn carriage and the Luna Crown. Then, I turned to Dad and said, "I'll go.""What!"A series of shocked exclamations rang out in the room.Dad's eyes widened. "Have you really thought this through? There's a very high chance that you're heading to your death."Vanessa shrieked, "She agreed way too eagerly! Could it be that you plan on talking badly about us to the Alpha King and sacrificing the pack to save your own life?"Eyes shining with disdain, Malia scoffed and added, "Annabelle, stop pretending li

Finally, the carriage stopped moving, and I lifted a corner of the curtains to take a peek.Outside, the sunlight was glaringly bright, while a cacophony of voices chattered deafeningly.A scarlet-red carpet had been rolled down the marble stairs, with the elders and the Alphas of other packs standing in two neat rows alongside it.Everyone was eager to see just what sort of she-wolf could be the one and only mate capable of driving the Alpha King to madness.Dad supported me as I exited the carriage with some difficulty.When everyone present noticed my sickly pallor and how I needed someone's help to even walk, their expressions changed. The looks they shot me were instantly filled with obvious disdain and judgment.I knew that they were looking down on me. Firstly, I came from a low-ranking pack on the borders, so I was of low birth. Secondly, I didn't even have a wolf spirit.Nevertheless, due to the Alpha King's dominating presence, none dared to speak up about it. All they

The moment Jayden expressed his rage, those subordinates who had originally already looked down upon the Greyridge pack instantly spoke up to show their disdain as well."I was just thinking there was no way the Alpha King would take an interest in a cripple; turns out she's a fake!""She can't even walk steadily on her own two feet, yet she thinks she's worthy to wear the Luna Crown?""How outrageous! Doesn't she know just how lowly her bloodline is?""Right? The Alpha King once swore to the Moon Goddess that he would only bond with his fated mate. Yet, a low-ranking she-wolf without a wolf spirit like her dares to think she's that lucky one?""A lowborn mongrel actually thinking she can rise above her station—how utterly ridiculous!"As the crowd's mocking continued, Dad hurried forward before falling to his knees on the red carpet with a thump. His voice quavered badly as he cried out, "My King, please, have mercy! If Annabelle isn't your fated mate, please just tell me who it

Chapter 9

Absolute silence greeted the Alpha King's announcement.Those elders who had been full of mockery and disdain earlier now had such ugly looks on their faces, as though a huge joke had just been played on them.However, the most shocked person present was none other than my father. He was still kneeling on the floor with his jaw hanging open slightly. Clearly, he hadn't regained his composure yet.Nonetheless, the Alpha King completely disregarded everyone's gaze as he leaned close to growl in my ear, "Well played indeed.""For the sake of living, what choice did I have?" I replied calmly.He scoffed, his eyes shining with the urge to kill me. Still, he had no choice but to force it down and take my hand. Then, turning to the crowd, he waved our linked hands at them as a show of unity.Immediately, thunderous applause rang out as the crowd cheered in celebration of the Alpha King finally finding his fated mate.Only he and I knew that this wasn't a true bond but a battle of wits.

Chapter 10

The following days, I became the most special Luna to ever exist. Not only did I not have a wolf spirit, resulting in a weak body and having to spend all day in my room, but the Alpha King still treated me like the most precious treasure in the world.After all, he had to put on an act to show everyone how loyal he was to this "fated" relationship.I became the target of envy of all she-wolves for having an entire palace and the Alpha King's love all to myself.Only I knew that this was simply the calm before the storm.The seventh day after I put on the Luna Crown, an emergency report from the northern border came.In the council hall, the elder in charge of finances spread his hands helplessly as he claimed that the treasury was empty, so he was unable to pay the military expenses for the border troops fighting against the rogues.The Alpha King's lips quirked into a smirk, but he remained silent.After the meeting ended, he came to my room."Annabelle, the Greyridge pack has
