Alpha Pawn & Jewelry Novels & Stories

Then suddenly, it stopped, leaving me even more frustrated with dissatisfaction, and he stood at the same time, daring to wink at me. "What is..." I could barely make up coherent sentences. Alpha Cole tipped my chin upwards, his eyes accessing me. "Mmm, you are surely going to be more entertaining than the prima donna. Let's go, I'm suddenly looking forward to this... show." Then he offered his arm, his eyes laughing at me. I hesitated. "What kind of jewelry is this?" He tipped his head to the side. "It's yet to be released, but it's the Roman Corporation's latest design. And who is better to test it, than my own prima donna and assistant head of PR? Test it, baby, and give me your report."

It read, "A present for you to wear to the ball." I frowned as I gazed at the necklace. The thought of wearing something gifted by Brad made me uncomfortable, especially considering his persistent advances. The necklace that Brad sent was a piece of jewelry, meant to capture the attention of anyone who beheld it. It was a gaudy creation with a heavy, gold chain that seemed to shimmer under the dim light. The centerpiece was a massive, pear-shaped diamond, set in a platinum frame and surrounded by smaller diamonds. The sheer size and glitter of the necklace screamed extravagance and excess. It was a showy display of wealth, designed to emphasize the power and dominance of the Alpha.

Nothing will derail my exit this time. "Thank you, Beta Henry," I said, looking up with eyes that could cut glass. "The Alpha picked it himself," he added hastily, voice cracking. "It's one of a kind. There's nothing else like it in the world." Pity his loyalty wasn't as rare as his taste in jewelry. I had no desire to wear anything he'd touched after touching her. I curled my lips into a smile sharp enough to draw blood. "How thoughtful of him," I said sweetly. "Imagine finding time for jewelry shopping in between board meetings... and bedroom visits."

She didn’t mind about how I speak? “Okay! Now, would you like to try these?” She pointed at the box earlier. Made me curious. “W-What’s that?” I stepped closer and widened my eyes when I saw what’s inside. “Ta-da!” She took it closer to me, “This is a set of jewelry from Alpha Cillian. Look! It matches your dress, Luna… He said you should wear it with this dress and I will help you. Come, let’s try the earing first! Ooh… They really stand out so much with how white and soft your skin is!”

Everyone turned, some almost shrinking at the dominance, while others' mouths hung open. Even in a wheelchair, Caelan commanded the room with little effort. Eyes popped, and mouths drooled. He looked dashingly attractive. As for a touch, he had made sure to wear one of Rain's jewelry...an odd choice for an alpha, but a perfect choice for a bride. The white-gold head jewelry tangled within his hair and fell down to his face, showering his forehead with light strings that fell like rain sparkles. This attire was breathtaking, marked with a golden phoenix... a royal color and embroidery.

….. "That's such a lovely necklace, Lilith," Tio said as he looked at Lilith's necklace. Lilith smiled as she continued, "Colt told me to wear this for my protection." Cloe and Tio both smiled as they watched Lilith wear the necklace and gently touch it in her palm. It made me so glad to see Lilith so happy. "Despite how valuable this necklace is, I'm glad Colt gave it to me," Lilith muttered. "Alpha sincerely loves you, Lady Lilith, and he wants you to be safe at all costs, which is why he let you have it," Cloe added.

The collars and cuffs of the shirt were covered in detailed embroidery, and the high-collared waistcoat was draped over the entire shirt. It was black in colour, and was decorated with a crisscross pattern with golden stones. The lapel of his coat was secured with a large brooch, embedded with a ruby that matched Lady Samantha's tiara. "We cordially invite you to the engagement party of the Alpha and Luna, Paul and Lexie! Please shower your blessings on the newly engaged couple. Thank you for joining us in our blissful celebration of the Royal family of the Apollo pack, I am happy to have you all here. Let's make their day with all of our blessings.”

The beta woman stood behind the counter, a metal tool in her hands as she bent thin metal into loops, making what seemed like a pendent. “Good morning, Pack Alpha.” She bowed down, a nervous smile on her face. “Good morning. These are beautiful; do you make them yourself?" I looked over the displayed jewellery, silver or gold chains decorated with pendants of varying types and colours. “Yes, my lord. My mate finds pearls and rare stones and gems from the sea. Every piece here is unique that way." The older woman smiled proudly, crinkles forming around the corner of her eyes. Leaning forward, I peered at the different pieces, finding many pearl items, pendants made of thin slices of gold, or

"It's so pretty." Alec nudged me. "Now open mine." I carefully unwrapped Alec's gift. Inside was an intricately carved wooden knight chess piece about ten inches tall. From what I could tell, it was Aspen and Cedar. The mane and smaller detailers were red, while the body was white. The craftsmanship was stunning, each detail perfectly rendered. It looked like a real horse. I gasped, biting my lip to hold back the tears. Kris laughed, "Alec here did little else while we were on break. He was going to make sure he got it right."

Noreen said, looking at the various pieces on display. Thiery chuckled. "The jewelry is from the new Luna for the previous Luna, but the Alpha must still buy it, because it shows his sincerity. It symbolizes that the Alpha will always be willing to give anything for Luna, even if it's not for Luna's use, but for someone else she respects or loves." "In other words, Luna Noreen," Danston chimed in. "If Luna was praised for giving the previous Luna something nice, it was an indirect compliment to the Alpha, showing that he wasn't stingy."
