“Ah!” my lips let out a gasp when he slid the dildo into my panties.

“It’s okay. I can teach you all about this toy,” he whispered, holding me against the wall near the door. The last thing I want was to learn about sex from my stepbrother.

“I have to go. Your brothers are waiting for me,” I excused. All of my step-brothers knew I had no knowledge of sex, they were ready to teach me everything about it. It was nerve-wracking that I felt a mate bond with all my stepbrothers and they didn’t mind taking turns on me.

“My brothers can come to my room. You know we are willing to share you,” his words shook my body and so did the vibrator in my panties.

“You have enough holes to please us all at the same time,” his comment made my body shudder.

It is bad that I didn’t mind giving in to his fantasies?

---

Being an Omega and a rogue is a combination of the cursed. Beatrice had lived a tough life, and finding out her mother was going to marry the Alpha King opened more challenges for her.

She now has to face the brunt of her new Alpha stepbrothers’ anger. But what if she finds out they are all her mates who don’t mind sharing a mate? And what if she happens to like being shared and willingly submits?

Will Beatrice find peace in the forbidden mate bond, or will all her mates break her beyond repair?

Read now to find out.

Chapter 1

“Mate!”

My muscles contorted when he repeated the word for the second time. I had known Flynn Winchester since we were kids. I used to meet him in the playground and it went on like that for years. He was the only persistent person in my life. It was truly a remarkable feeling when we recently felt the mate bond.

“Come on! Do it!” he smiled, cornering me by the lockers. It was my first day in twelfth grade. I was nervous and panicky because I had been homeschooled my whole life.

High school was a zoo for me, and I was a new animal at the zoo for everyone else.

Fortunately, my mother had talked to Ms. Winchester about my first day in school, so Alpha Flynn picked me up at the door.

“Here?” I asked, looking around at the empty hallway.

“It’s empty. Don’t you want to be accepted by your popular alpha mate on the first day of school?” He insisted, and I could not help but nod feebly. He had on his yellow and red jock jacket. The Alpha title has enabled him to become popular here.

It would be nice to have someone on my side to help me navigate this new world.

“I, Beatrice Mintz, accept you as my mate.” I did what he told me to do. My body stretched, and I got on my tippy toes to reach his lips. It was going to be my first kiss ever. I never knew how people kissed, but I depended on him.

My lips hadn’t even reached his lips when I felt a wave of painful current strike through my cheek as he slapped me hard enough to knock me off my feet.

I fell to the ground with a thump and touched my cheek. There was something damp on my face. Once I took my hand off my skin and watched it, I realized it was shaving cream that he had smeared on my face while slapping me.

It had not been a minute since the cheers had invaded the corridor. Everyone came out of the rooms around me and made a mockery of me.

I was embarrassed.

I looked at everybody with big teardrop eyes, then I looked at Flynn, who was still smirking at me. It was hard to swallow that my childhood friend chose to bully me just to look badass.

“That’s how you treat a b***h,” another young boy came out from behind Alpha Flynn. He was taller than Flynn and had everybody bow down to him in respect. All I could tell was that he was more popular than Flynn.

“What are you looking at, freak?” The boy growled when he caught me staring at him with bewilderment.

It wasn’t hard to comprehend that Flynn and his friend planned it all to bully me on my first day of school. What I couldn’t gather was why?

“She really thought an alpha would accept her,” a girl laughed at me, making me cover my face in my hands and sob silently. This was my first experience in front of a crowd, and this is what I got.

“Bullying turned her panties wet,” another girl commented and I hid my face in my hands.

“I bet she loves riding d*cks,” another voice tinted my cheeks red out of embarrassment.

“Aww! Look at her. The poor girl is crying. Did you think Zane’s friend would accept you?” The other boy introduced himself with a grin that covered his lips.

It was in that brief moment of him hunching over me that I saw his icy grey eyes shining at me. He had a very prominent and sharp jawline, almost like a knife.

“Everybody! out of school. Didn’t you hear the school bell ringing?” A teacher came in time and diffused everyone. Sadly, he didn’t come to ask me if I was fine.

I got on my feet and started sprinting towards the exit before delaying a single second. It wasn’t how I thought my day would end. I rushed out of the gate and spotted my mother’s Honda Civic parked in the distance.

The instant I rolled into the car, my mother turned to scan me.

“What happened to you? How did this foam end up in your hair?” She must have felt something was wrong from the way I was sobbing.

“They bu—llied me. Fly—nn mocked me,” I was hyperventilating and yammering everything to my mother except for the entire truth.

I never told my mother that I felt a mate bond with Flynn. My mother never really liked the idea of me talking about finding a mate.

She would constantly tell me to save myself and my innocence for a special day. I didn’t know what she meant by that, so I just obeyed her. Today’s incident made me realize I wish I had remained obedient; I would have avoided such humiliation.

“That’s why his mother was acting all sassy on the call today. I should have known they didn’t want us to bother them again. Anyway, you don’t need to worry about it.” My mom hissed as she zoned out for a moment.

“Don’t worry about anything anymore. Things are going to change for us. You’ll have someone to protect you from these bullies every day,” she said with a worried smile across her lips. She began to drive to our next destination whilst I stayed silent, with tears appearing and disappearing in my eyes.

She had our bags set in the backseat of the car. We have discussed moving for some time, but I didn’t know we were moving out today. “Where are we going?” I asked my mom in confusion. She got me admission and decided to move out of the house.

“Not far, just in a better place. Beatrice! Remember I told you I was seeing someone? Well, I think it is time that I introduce you to him,” she smiled to herself while driving us to the beautiful, vast mansion of Lord Vasquez.

“Mom! Why are we here?” I felt uneasy watching so many guards staring at us.

“It is our new home. Lord Vasquez had chosen me as his new mate. We will finally live the life that we both deserve. As for you, you are getting 4 stepbrothers. They are the next Alpha Kings in line for North, South, East, and West. Aside from that, they will protect you from now on.” Her confidence when telling me we were going to invade their house was shocking.

“But remember Beatrice! No matter what happens, don’t let them touch you. Don’t let them get into your head. You know your wolf is a seductress. Avoid everyone at any cost,” the last words from her embedded in my head as the possibility of them touching me shook my body into awareness.

“But why would they do that? I am their sister now,” I watched my mom pout sadly at my question.

“That’s what you need to remind them of. They can’t mess with you because you’re their stepsister. Beatrice! We don’t want to ruin this chance to have a better and full of luxuriant future,” She gave me a reassuring look before we got off the car to be greeted by the guards.

Novel title	Pregnant After One Night With The Lycan
Protagonist	Tanya, Macro
Author	Kellie Brown
Number of Chapters	100
Publishing platform	MoboReader

When I woke up with a hangover, I found a handsome and naked stranger sleeping beside me.

I’m Tanya, a surrogate’s daughter, an omega with no wolf and no scent.

On my 18th birthday, when I planned to give my virginity to my boyfriend, I found him sleeping with my sister.

I went to the bar to get drunk, and accidentally had a one-night stand with the handsome stranger.

I thought he was just an ordinary werewolf, but they said he was Marco, the alpha prince and the most powerful Lycan in our kingdom.

‘You slut, you’re pregnant! Fortunately, Rick is kind enough to let you be his mistress and save you from shame.’ my stepmother said, tossing a pregnancy strip on the table.

Rick was an old pervert. No she-wolf could keep up with his sexual demand. No she-wolf could survive with him more than 1 year.

When I was in despair, Marco came to my rescue. He got down on one knee, took out a ring and said he would marry me.

I thought Marco married me because he loved me, but later I found that was not the truth…

Chapter 1 Chapter 1 Betrayal From My Boyfriend

Tanya’s POV
Well, I never thought I’d end up like this.
Awake, naked, on a soft woollen bed that isn’t mine, and wrapped in the arms of a terribly handsome stranger that I absolutely do not recognize. As if that isn’t bad enough, I have no memory of what happened the previous night.
I shut my eyes for a few seconds, hoping, praying, that I’m dreaming. But I open them again, only to be faced with a pair of icy blue eyes, and I scream.
I have no idea who the man is or how I got to the room. All I know is that the previous day was my eighteenth birthday. And just like everything else in my life, it was a total nightmare.

---

One day earlier
“Fuck me, Brandon! Yeah, baby, that’s it!”
I was standing in the doorway of my boyfriend’s room. We’d been dating for years, and yet… I was not the woman in the bed that he was pounding senselessly. The horror encompassing me at this moment contrasted starkly with how I felt this morning.
I woke with an elated buzz in my system. Even if no one cared but me, I deserved to enjoy the day. After all, turning eighteen was a major milestone.
To my surprise, my boss at the perfume shop let me leave work early as a birthday present. And with a heart soaring with excitement, I made my way to my boyfriend Brandon’s house.
Brandon was the only person in my life who had shown me love and care despite what others thought of me. I trusted him, and in a matter of seconds, that illusion disastrously shattered into a million pieces.
Nothing could blind my eyes to the awful visual I was exposed to. They were both stark naked and had their backs to me. The girl was on all fours, hands clutching the bedsheet, whilst Brandon was situated behind her, panting like a hungry dog as he thrusted into her.
“You like that? Tell me you like that.” he said in a voice that was ravenous.
“Yes baby. Fuck yes. Harder baby! Faster!” the girl’s plead only edged Brandon to ramp up the speed, griping her at the waist to smash himself against her with a frenzied quickness. “God-you. You feel- so damn good!” she said erratically, trying to speak as her body jerked in motion to Brandon’s pounding.
And then, as if he wasn’t close enough, he threw himself forward. His large hand found the back of her head, smushing her face into the pillow whilst he humped her wildly.
“Fuck I’m close!” with each second his manly grunts grew into wolfish growls as his body got ready to explode in release. Whilst beneath him the girl’s feminine moans morphed into screams of pleasure, loud and high pitched, even when muffled by the pillow she’s shoved into. Together they hit peak and made the bed rock like a boat swaying to rough seas.
I didn’t know what snapped me out of my frozen state of shock, but just as they slumped down, I found the courage to scream. “How could you Brandon!”
He looked startled as his sweaty face whipped round to face me. But I didn’t dare wait for his response. I fled, rushing out of the house, only barely catching a glimpse of the girl in his arms, and too heartbroken to care her face.
I should’ve seen this coming… I should realize by now that my life was destined to be one of misery.
I, Tanya, am a complete disappointment.
My father, Richard, is an Alpha of the Blackhide Pack, a small but very powerful pack. And like most Alphas, he desired a son that would take up his legacy. Unfortunately for me, Richard’s wife could only give him a daughter. And so, it was Richard’s quest for a son that made him turn to surrogacy. The surrogate turned out to be my mother, an ordinary omega wolf in the pack.
And so, my father was infuriated when I was born as a girl. He vowed never to have anything to do with me. Course when mom passed away soon after, he had no choice but to take me in. Richard hated me since I was a girl. And it didn’t help that I turned out to be an Omega wolf.
Worst of all, at the age of thirteen, most werewolves manifested their “wolf”, allowing them to shift forms. I was eighteen and my wolf was yet to appear. I had no wolfish powers; no strength, or durability. I didn’t even have a body scent like other wolves.
In fact, I was weaker than a human. Richard hated weakness, so he hated me.
Richard’s wife also despised me. She hated my mother for sharing her husband with her and that hatred was transferred to me. I was treated with disdain and lived no better than a slave in my father’s house. I probably would have committed suicide a long time ago if Alina, my step-sister who was older than me by two years, was spiteful to me like her parents were.
Everything in my life was an absolute nightmare, everything except, Brandon.
Brandon was one of the most powerful wolves in Richard’s pack. He was smart, intelligent, and very handsome. Most people had hinted him to be the next Alpha after Richard. He had the attention of the prettiest girls in the whole pack, yet, somehow, he had his eyes on me.
Brandon was the light in my darkness and he deserved my virginity, so I wanted to give myself fully to Brandon on my 18th birthday. However, now that belief had been destroyed and scorched by reality. In the end, I truly was an abomination that could never be loved.
I didn’t make it back home before I crashed down in a dark alley, crying my eyes out. It felt as though my whole world was crashing down.
Alina found me soon after. I didn’t know how she found me, or how she was aware that I was on the verge of a nervous breakdown, but I didn’t care. I needed someone to comfort me and she was there. I gently narrated what happened to Brandon amidst tears and sobs while she calmly listened and comforted me.
A car, shining its headlight, sped by us, illuminating the dark alley for a split second before it joined the highway. In that split second, I saw that Alina’s watch was identical to the watch that was on the wrist of the girl that Brandon was having sex with.

---

“That stupid girl even has a watch identical to yours?” I wailed as the pain and hurt of my boyfriend’s betrayal made a dent in my heart.
“She did?” Alina replied and immediately took off the watch. “There are probably lots of watches identical to this,” she stuttered while staring down at her watch.
Alina seemed flustered as she stared at the watch and I thought I caught a glimpse of fear and panic in her eyes. But it was only for a moment and she quickly regained her usual cheerful demeanor. I knew my stepsister would not betray me so I did not dwell on the thought. She was probably perplexed that her wristwatch was caught in a such bad situation.
“You know what? I’ll just throw this away,” she chuckled and tossed the wristwatch into a far distance. “We don’t need any bad memory to ruin our night.”
“Our night?” I asked confused.
“Come on,” she laughed. “You don’t think your big sister’s going to allow your eighteenth birthday to end on such a sour note? Come on,” she dragged me along as she walked away. “Let’s get you dress, time to get drunk!”

Novel title	The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King
Protagonist	Lucianne Freesia Paw
Author	Stina’s Pen
Number of Chapters	237
Publishing platform	MoboReader

After being rejected by 5 mates, Gamma Lucianne pleaded with the Moon Goddess to spare her from any further mate-bonds. To her dismay, she is being bonded for the sixth time. What’s worse is that her sixth-chance mate is the most powerful creature ruling over all werewolves and Lycans – the Lycan King himself. She is certain, dead certain, that a rejection would come sooner or later, though she hopes for it to be sooner.

King Alexandar was ecstatic to meet his bonded mate, and couldn’t thank their Goddess enough for gifting him someone so perfect. However, he soon realizes that this gift is reluctant to accept him, and more than willing to sever their bond. He tries to connect with her but she seems so far away. He is desperate to get intimate with her but she seems reluctant to open up to him. He tries to tell her that he is willing to commit to her for the rest of his life but she doesn’t seem to believe him. He is pleading for a chance: a chance to get to know her; a chance to show her that he’s different; and a chance to love her.

But when not-so-subtle crushes, jealous suitors, self-entitled Queen-wannabes, an old flame, a silent protector and a past wedding engagement threaten to jeopardize their relationship, will Lucianne and Xandar still choose to be together? Is their love strong enough to overcome everything and everyone? Or will Lucianne resort to enduring a sixth rejection from the one person she thought she could entrust her heart with?

Chapter 1 One

Would you like to do it, your Highness, or should I?” She looked at the Lycan King indifferently, whose lilac eyes of affection were suddenly intruded by confusion.

“Wh-what do you mean?” He asked as he tried to concentrate on the beautiful voice of the woman in front of him, his mate. He was here for a meet-and-greet session that he dreaded. The worst thing was that this session among Alphas, Lunas and their Gammas from every pack in existence was to last for the entire night! ‘Why couldn’t they just skip this night and officially start the one-month collaboration tomorrow?’, the King thought to himself every year.

She raised her eyebrows as she studied his expression, “Huh. You do look genuinely confused.”

His eyebrows furrowed, confused and irritated now, “Again, what do you mean? And what is your name?”

The Alphas, Lunas and the best warrior of each pack, called Gammas, just arrived and he, as their benevolent King, was here to greet them. Although, if he were given a choice, this King would have rather been going through the reports of rogue attacks that were steadily piling up on his desk. He couldn’t wait to get the night over with. If he made his rounds quickly enough, he would still reach home on time to get through three or four files before bed. But when he walked through the doors of the gathering hall, his impatience, reluctance and pure hate for the meet-and-greet vaporized in an instant.

“My name is Lucianne Freesia Paw, your Highness. I take it that you’re going to do it, then?” She said simply. To the King, her name felt like the first spring breeze after many long months of harsh winter, the soft light penetrating through the grey clouds, the breath of life in a cold, dark world.

“Do what?” His confusion couldn’t be masked even if he tried. He felt like his mate was already ten feet away when he had only taken the first step.

When he entered the hall, every wolf and Lycan present looked in his direction and they either nodded or bowed but he merely glanced over them. The animal in him was following a scent that has never graced his nostrils. Butterfly pea and jasmine. ‘What a unique combination’, he thought to himself. His footsteps gained speed as the scent got stronger.

Then, he stopped right behind a five-foot-one brunette. Her back was small, half of it covered with dark, luscious curls falling effortlessly from her head. There was only one word in his mind — mate. The figure started turning around to face him, and his heart stopped. She was surprised by his sudden presence and took a step back. The animal in his head growled, ‘Mine’.

Lucianne turned around because she noticed the stunned faces of her Alpha and Luna, who both bowed in her direction. Upon turning, she came face-to-face with a white suit covered with a black tuxedo, and a strong scent of acacia wood and forest trees graced her nostrils. Shocked at the proximity, she took a step back to see who it was. Realizing that the dark-haired man with slightly tanned skin and lilac eyes was the King himself, she understood her pack leaders’ action. She, too, bent her knees and lowered her head as a form of respect to the highest ruler of all werewolves and Lycans.

A warm feeling crept up her shoulders before she felt the sparks where his hands made contact with her skin. To her dread, she realised that the man in front of her was her mate who spoke in his clear, deep voice, “You don’t have to do that. Please stand. Don’t bow to me.” He said with visible pain and disapproval in his eyes.

Although surprised by the King’s response, Lucianne couldn’t escape her reality of how the bond was going to end. ‘Here we go again’, she thought, before proceeding to ask whether he wanted her to do it, or that he wanted to do it himself – to reject her.

“Do what, Lucianne? Talk to me.” His voice was soft but demanding. His eyes were desperate and lost.

She explained calmly, “Reject me, your Highness. Do you prefer it if I did it or would you like to do it yourself?” The hope and life she gave him earlier seemed like it was about to be snatched away from him almost as soon as he found them.

The King’s lilac eyes turned onyx as he growled thunderously, scaring everyone who was there. The room fell into dead silence. After he exploded in anger at what he had just heard, the King asked in a low, frightening tone, “Why the f*ck would either one of us reject the other?”

Lucianne was surprised again but she remained calm. She shrugged and said, “I don’t know. Maybe it’s because I’m not your type, not good enough for you, not pretty enough, you may already have a chosen mate to be engaged to…” before she could finish, her Luna hissed, “Stop it, Lucy!”

The King’s eyes met the Luna’s as he growled, “I didn’t ask you to speak.”

The Luna and her Alpha mate lowered their heads in unison as a sign of apology. No right-minded wolf would challenge a Lycan, let alone the King of Lycans.

The King faced his mate again. His eyes softened a little by how dainty and beautiful she looked. Why did she want to take herself away from him? He asked in a murderous tone, “Who told you those things?”

Lucianne’s eyes turned wide abruptly, “Oh no, your Highness. That’s not what I meant. It’s just… that’s what my previous mates told me before or after they rejected me so I was just giving you an idea on what I’m talking about.”

His angered eyes bore into her unperturbed ones as he asked in a dangerously low tone, “Do you want to reject me?”

Summary

Author	Blue Tears
Number of Chapters	563
Publishing platform	MoboReader

Jennifer Smith was Alpha’s daughter. Her family was destroyed by traitors in their pack. Her mother died of an illness; her father was murdered by the Beta; and her pack was taken away. Alone and stranded, Jennifer escaped to the Dark River Pack, where she lived as a slave. Although she was continuously abused and insulted, she never yielded or admitted defeat.

Jennifer’s strong power attracted the prince, and she was soon brought to the Royal Training Ground, where her fate changed forever. Hungry for revenge on those who had destroyed her family, Jennifer focused on training hard and getting stronger.

Would Prince Anthony refuse Jennifer because of her humble identity? What would happen to them on the training ground? What would she choose between love and hatred? And what was the prince’s secret?

Chapter 1 A Princess In Trouble

Jennifer’s POV:

“Jennifer, you bitch! Where is my pearl necklace?” Barbara yelled from outside the door.

Startled by her voice, I stuffed the pearl necklace back into the wooden box in a hurry, and then stashed the box under the pillow to hide it.

I had barely straightened up from the bed when the wooden door of the room was kicked open. Barbara rushed in with a group of werewolves, followed by Luna Debra, whose face was covered with a thick layer of foundation, but unfortunately, it could not hide the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.

These two women always dressed up extravagantly, as if they wanted to flaunt all the jewelry they owned in a single outfit.

“Luna Debra, Miss Barbara, what can I do for you?” I asked politely, saluting them as usual with a friendly smile on my face.

“Jennifer, where’s the pearl necklace I usually wear?” Barbara growled, grabbing my collar and glaring at me. “You bitch! You always have sticky fingers. You’re the one who cleans my room. Where did my favorite pearl necklace go? I can’t find it. Did you steal it?”

“Miss Barbara, I didn’t take anything from your room. You can’t accuse me without evidence,” I replied patiently in a tone that was neither humble nor pushy.

“You shameless bitch! How dare you talk to me like that? You want evidence? Let’s find it right now!” Barbara spat, shoving me backward. Then, she turned to the werewolves she had brought along and ordered them to search my room.

My small and shabby room was soon turned upside down. The old quilt on the bed was thrown to the floor, and the small wooden table and stool were kicked over with loud thuds. What was worse, I had to watch Barbara walk all over my quilt in her expensive high-heeled shoes. She even picked up the half-empty kettle that had fallen on the floor and poured the water on the quilt. It was as if she was taking this opportunity to vent all her anger.

I tried to keep my face expressionless as I stared at the ruffians turning my room into a mess, but resentment gripped my heart and seeped into my eyes.

“How dare you glare at me? You’ll suffer when I find the necklace!” Barbara shouted, driving her heels harder into my quilt.

I clenched my fists to suppress my anger and ignored her. After a few more seconds of watching the werewolves knock all my things to the floor, I couldn’t bear it anymore. “Stop! I didn’t steal anything. Why are you doing this?” I shouted.

“Why? It’s simple. I am the Beta’s daughter, while you’re just a slave, a piece of garbage abandoned by others!” Barbara snickered at me.

“You’re not noble at all. You are nothing but an orphan adopted by the Luna,” I replied fiercely.

Before their deaths, Barbara’s parents had been close friends with Luna Debra. That was the reason why Luna Debra had taken Barbara in. In terms of bloodline, I was much nobler than Barbara. I really didn’t know what I had done to offend her. From the beginning, she had always disliked me, and stirred up trouble for me both in public and in private.

At this time, a she-wolf overturned my pillow, causing the small wooden box to fall to the floor.

“No!” I anxiously hurried forward to grab the wooden box. But just when I was about to touch it, Barbara stepped on the back of my hand. Her heel dug into my skin, drawing blood. I couldn’t help but wince at the sharp pain.

“Bitch, what’s the rush? Why do you care about this shabby box so much? You must be hiding something in it,” Barbara sneered.

A she-wolf picked up the wooden box and handed it to her. Barbara opened the wooden box, revealing the pearl necklace that was lying in it.

I wanted to get up, but Barbara drove her heel harder into the back of my hand, pinning me down.

I was afraid that if I got up abruptly, I’d end up tearing my skin. The pain was too much to take. But compared to the physical pain I felt, the pain in my heart was even more.

“Luna Debra, look!” Barbara picked up the pearl necklace and triumphantly waved it in front of Luna Debra. “I told you that bitch stole my necklace! She just refused to admit it. How can a slave like her own such an expensive necklace?” she spat, glancing at me in disdain.

Looking at the necklace, Luna Debra frowned and nodded in agreement.

“We put a roof over her head, but she stole from us! How dare she? She must be punished severely,” Barbara continued, trying to provoke Luna Debra even more.

“That necklace is mine! Miss Barbara, look at it carefully. It’s not yours at all,” I argued, biting my lower lip.

“Even if this isn’t my necklace, it can’t be yours either. Since you lost my necklace, I’ll take this as compensation.” Clenching the necklace in her hand, Barbara kicked me in the chest and then threw the wooden box to the floor.

“Luna Debra, you have to do something! Barbara is being unreasonable,” I pleaded, turning to Luna Debra, who was my last ray of hope.

But Luna Debra just stared at me with contempt. “Since you lost Barbara’s necklace, shouldn’t you compensate her for it? You should just feel grateful that Barbara isn’t holding you accountable for it,” she said mockingly.

I gritted my teeth in anger. I knew there was nothing I could do against these two vicious women, so I had no choice but to swallow the insult and humiliation. At the thought that the necklace left behind by my deceased mother was being snatched away from me by Barbara, I almost lost control. I really wished I could tear the two women’s faces apart and let them have a taste of their own medicine.

“Luna Debra, let’s go. This bitch’s room is so dirty. It’s not worthy of your presence.” Barbara held Luna Debra’s arm and left arrogantly, with the werewolves following them.

“Bitch, you won’t get any food for the whole day tomorrow. That’s what you get for pissing me off,” she added before leaving.

Tomorrow would be my eighteenth birthday, but it turned out that I was going to starve the whole day. Hatred bubbled up in my heart as I stared at their receding backs. One day, I’ll make you pay for all the things that you’ve done to me! I swore to myself.

For a while, I sat on the floor with my knees pulled up to my chest, rocking back and forth in the dark and shabby room. The cold wind gushed in from time to time through the broken window, making me shiver from head to toe. It was not winter yet, but the weather was already freezing. Tightening my old apron around my body, I finally stood up, walked to the door, and closed it. The chipped wooden door creaked as it closed shut.

Then, I turned around, picked up the wooden box lying on the floor, and wiped off the dust on it with my apron. Tears finally trickled down my cheeks.

That pearl necklace had been left to me by my mother, who had died years ago. Whenever I missed her, I would take out the necklace and reminiscence about the times I spent with her.

In fact, I was not born to be a slave. My father, Lewis Smith, and my mother, Doris Smith, had been the Alpha and the Luna of the Rainbow Pack. I also had an elder brother, Jerome Smith. With the protection of my family, I had a great childhood.

But when I was seven years old, my mother died of an acute disease. It was said that bad things came in threes. Not long after, Beta Arthur and a few other traitors rebelled against my father and killed him. My elder brother took me away from the pack to keep me safe, but the two of us were separated during our escape.

After wandering around on my own for a while, I found myself joining the Dark River Pack. Of course, I didn’t dare to reveal my true identity to them. From then on, I washed clothes and cooked every day, becoming a slave of this pack.

Later, I heard that Beta Arthur had become the Alpha of the Rainbow Pack. How could a traitor become the Alpha? It was laughable!

I carried all the wrongs and misfortune that I had suffered in my heart, including Beta Arthur’s betrayal, my father’s wrongful death, my brother’s disappearance, and the way I was insulted and abused every day in the Dark River Pack. I wanted to do my best to become stronger so that I could get my revenge.

Chapter 1 Day before (part one)

I woke up early in the morning and got up right away. I was excited. Really, really excited. Tomorrow is my birthday. Tomorrow I will be eighteen and I will meet my wolf. I couldn’t wait to shift for the first time. They say it is painful, but I didn’t care about that part. It is just for a little while, and it gets easier later. I can survive a little bit of pain.

I just wished that my parents were here to see me shift for the first time. It had been eight years since they died, and it hadn’t gotten any easier.

They were killed in a rogue attack.

Rogues are wolves that don’t belong to a pack. They become rogues by being exiled from their packs for committing various crimes. Some of them choose to leave their packs and live like rogues. That is rare, though. We wolves are pack animals. We don’t like being alone. When a wolf chooses to become a rogue, it is mostly because something bad has happened to them in their pack or they have lost their mate, gone crazy and left the pack.

The rogues live alone. They don’t work with other wolves. But when they attacked our pack, they were working together. It was very odd. Since that night, our Alpha learned that there is a rogue wolf who has gathered other rogues to attack various packs. They call him the Rogue King. The attacks haven’t stopped since. They attacked our and other packs multiple times.

On the night of the attack, rogues tried to kill our Alpha’s son. We were celebrating his 18th birthday and his first shift. He was supposed to start his training to become a new Alpha and take over the pack.

However, that night, rogues killed his father, our former Alpha Luke. He was forced to become an Alpha right away. And he did an amazing job. He finished his training early and he made our pack one of the strongest ones.

My father was Alpha Luke’s Beta. He and my mom died protecting Alpha, Luna, and their son. That was their job.

After their deaths, my brother Andrew became Beta. He and our Alpha were best friends since childhood, and now they run our pack together.

My brother is an amazing Beta, and an even better brother. He was 17 when our parents died, and after that, he had to take care of our pack and me. He never complained. He took those responsibilities and did the best he could. And he did great. He always made sure I was safe and taken care of. He still does.

I finished high school a few months ago, and all I have to do now is train. After the attacks, my brother and our Alpha decided that all pack members must train to be able to defend ourselves.

The rule in our pack is that we all must go through high school. It is something similar to a human high school, but we learn werewolf and pack history, pack laws, and everything needed to help the pack function properly. For example, if a wolf is interested in working for Alpha, he or she will learn a bit more about running the pack. If a wolf is interested in agriculture, he or she will learn about plants and our crops to help sustain our food supplies. If a wolf is interested in defending the pack, he or she will learn about defense techniques, attack formations, and they will have to spend more time training than the rest of us. I chose to help the Alpha run our pack. It was natural to me. My brother is the Beta and I wanted to help him as much as I could. So, I learned all about pack laws and everything else needed to successfully run our pack.

The Alpha, Beta and pack healer are the only ones who leave the pack to go train for their positions. They go to different packs where they learn everything needed for their positions in a pack. The training lasts for about a year.

Considering our pack was attacked and our former Alpha was killed, our new Alpha and Beta finished their training in only a couple of months. The pack needed them, and it had to be done quicker than usual. I missed my brother when he left, but I knew it was something he had to do.

We have to train every day, but tomorrow I get a day off because it is my birthday and my first shift. It is a special occasion. The first shift is important because you get to meet your wolf, and your mate.

Mates are important in wolf culture. A mate is your special someone, picked by our Moon Goddess. It is the connection of two souls. Your mate becomes the most important thing to you. You love them instantly. You want and need to be with them and protect them.

My brother still hasn’t found his mate. And neither did our Alpha. So, until he does, his mother, Gloria, still has the Luna title and does the Luna duties.

She had a hard time after her mate, our former Alpha, passed away. She almost didn’t make it. She didn’t eat, sleep or do anything. That is what happens when you lose your mate. Your will to live goes away. However, she recovered, and she is an amazing Luna. I love her a lot. She helped me and my brother after our parents died, and she and I have a special relationship. She is like a mother to me.

I asked her to be present for my first shift. She accepted and gave me a big hug. It is a big deal to be present for a wolf’s first shift. At least in our pack. Each pack has its own tradition, but in ours, only the wolves you choose get to witness your first shift. And it was an honor to be chosen.

I chose my brother, Luna Gloria, and my friends Amy and Jacob. They were all honored and excited for me.

I couldn’t wait to shift. It will be amazing. And maybe I will be luckier than my brother and meet my mate soon.

I had to go to training soon, so I brushed my teeth, took a quick shower and got dressed. I put on my black tights, training bra, grey hoodie and my black Nike sneakers. I tied my long brown hair into a ponytail and went downstairs.

“Please trust me, I didn’t do anything.”

“I don’t believe you. I am rejecting you as my Queen and giving you the punishment of death.”

Alina was living outside her pack for five years. Her parents didn’t try to contact her and always ignored her. Her best friend convinced her to go back to their pack and she agreed. But she had never imagined what was waiting there for her. She never thought she would meet her mate and had to face betrayal from everywhere. She had to pay for the crime which she never committed.

Aaron Robertson is the king of Lycans. He is a very dominant and powerful King who not only rules Lycans but also rules other ranks of werewolves. Everyone is afraid of Lycans and he is the king of them.

But who knew that he would get a mate who was just a simple Omega with no powers and strengths?
He called her weak all the time but Little did he know that his weak Omega would give him the biggest betrayal of his life for which he had to give her the sentence of death.

Chapter 1 Nightmare

A girl was running through the dark forest.

She could see another territory in the distance. She tried hard to get there so she sped up her running. But before that, some wolves stopped her.

She could smell them, they were rogues. ‘Why are all the dangers coming together before me? There is no one to save me now, no way I can save my life.’
Those rogue wolves started to growl at her. She was feeling afraid. There is no one in the world for her to call her own. Who would save her?
The rogues could smell her, that was why they came after her. She was an unmated Omega. Every male wolf could get attracted to Omegas or want to have them. She was trembling in fear.

Suddenly, those rogues stopped growling and stepped back from her. They looked behind her. She felt that someone was behind her.
Then she smelled the scent from which she was running from here to escape. She was trying to escape from the owner of the scent.
The man came from behind her and went to the rogues. His back was facing her so she could not see his face. But even watching him from his back, anybody could tell that he had a dark aura.
He turned his head slowly to his side and said in his deep voice,

“You had tried so hard to run away? But you know it very well that you can’t escape from me. Nobody can save you from your death. You have to die. I want to see you die brutally.”

Hearing him, her legs were wobbling. Her hands were shaken. She was breathing hard. She could feel nothing except fear.

When the rogues heard those words they started to growl at her. Those wolves understood who was standing in front of them. They didn’t try to run because even if they tried to run away, they could not succeed. So they tried to attack the Omega so that they could get sympathy from the man and after that maybe he would forgive them and let them go.
The man narrowed his eyes at the rogues when he saw what they were trying to do.
“I don’t have time to play with you all.” He said angrily to the rogues and immediately shifted.

The girl saw him shift and got afraid. His wolf was huge. His blackish gray fur was not looking dirty but pure.
Those rogues looked so small in front of him.
In a blink of a second, he killed all the rogues. He killed them by biting their neck and separating them from their bodies.
The girl was shocked. But when the wolf turned around and looked at her with his red eyes she got scared and fell to the ground.
The wolf was slowly coming to her. Blood ran down from his teeth.
She put the back of her hands in front of her face in fear and closed her eyes tightly.
The wolf tightened his jaw and jumped on her.

“AAAA!!!!” She screamed.
“Alina, what happened to you?” She heard a voice calling her and patted her shoulder.
Alina opened her eyes and looked around her. She was in her room. She sat up and put her palm on her face and sighed. Her heart was beating fast and her whole body was sweaty.
For the last few weeks, Alina was having the same dream every day. It was a nightmare. But she felt it was so real.
“Alina? Again the same dream?”
Alina looked beside her and saw her best friend Crystal sitting on the edge of the bed.
Alina nodded at her.
“Don’t worry. It’s just a nightmare.” Crystal said and patted her back.
“Do you want to drink a glass of water?” Crystal asked.
“Hmm.”
Crystal poured a glass of water and handed it to Alina.
Alina drank all the water in one gulp. She was feeling restless.
She looked at her best friend. “When did you come here?”
“When you were busy watching nightmares.”
Alina chuckled at her words.
Alina was living in the dormitory. Her best friend’s room was just opposite her room. They had keys of each other’s room.
Crystal and she were friends for ten years. When they were ten, they met in their elementary school. They became friends. They both came abroad from their pack for their higher study.

“Alina it has been five years since you went to the pack house. But you promised me last week that you will go with me tomorrow in our pack. Do you forget it?” Crystal asked.

“Why would I go back to the pack? My mom and dad don’t love me. They never tried to contact me in these five years. I bet they will not be happy if I go there.” Alina replied.

“But you promised me last week. And you are a woman of one word. Aren’t you? ” Crystal tried to convince her.

“Okay, I will. But only for you. Because I don’t break promises.”
“That’s my girl. Come here, let me hug you.”
“No. Don’t hug me. I am all sweaty.” Alina said and got down from her bed.
“I always think about your dreams, Alina. Doesn’t the man always come to save you in your dreams?”
Alina put out her clothes from her closet while shaking her head. “No, he always comes to save me but he says he is the one who wants to kill me. He says he has the right to kill me.”
“How strange! I thought he was your knight in shining armor.”
“I never felt safe in my dreams when he came to save me. It was like I had already known that he would kill me. In fact, I was running from him.” Alina explained her dream to Crystal.
“Don’t worry. Maybe you are too stressed, that is why you keep dreaming about these. The man is just an imagination, otherwise why would anyone try to kill you?” Crystal said and Alina nodded her head. She was about to go to the bathroom to take a shower when Crystal suddenly asked.
“But what about the looks of the man in your dreams?” Crystal asked excitedly.
Alina stopped at the door and replied,
“He had a dark aura. And I always saw his side face. He was a very handsome man.”
“You mean a handsome imaginary enemy who wants to kill you every day in your nightmare?”
Alina chuckled. “Yeah.” Then she went to take a shower.
After showering and wearing comfortable clothes. She came out of the bathroom. She saw Crystal was not in her room.
Alina wiped her hair and dried it. She did a high ponytail and looked at herself. Though she was a twenty years old woman now. But anyone looking at her would think she was a sixteen or eighteen years old girl. She was very youthful for her age.

She went out of her room and knocked on Crystal’s door. Crystal opened the door immediately and looked at Alina. “Let’s go.”
Alina nodded at her and said, “Yeah, we are getting late because of my annoying nightmare.”
“No, it’s not like that. Don’t worry. If we run, we can reach the class fast. Though I am not a werewolf like you and I can’t compare your strength but still, I can try.” Crystal said.
Alina looked at Crystal’s green eyes.

Crystal was not a werewolf like her. She was a witch. A daughter of a very powerful witch. Her mother was a royal witch of their pack. So very soon Crystal will be the royal witch just like her mother.
Crystal’s mother died five years ago. She loved her mom a lot. But her mom passed away very early. She could not even say goodbye to her.
“So what if you are not a werewolf? We werewolves have physical strength while witches have the most powerful thing which is their mental power. You can do anything with your powers.” Alina said.
They were walking and chatting in the hallway. But they saw some girls fangirling around someone.
“This man is getting attention every day.” Crystal said while looking at the crowd.
“Yeah, he is the national crush here.” Alina said and laughed.
“Alina, I heard he is a true blood Alpha. You are a werewolf too. Do you want me to match up you two?” Crystal said while wiggling her eyebrows.
“Oh please, no thanks.” Alina replied and looked at the crowd. She saw the man who her best friend called a true blood.
He was none other than Rick Miller. He was very popular at their university. People said he didn’t want to be the head Alpha of his pack so he came here and started to study with other creatures together. Here everyone was free to date any. No boundaries or rules to have the same rank or same status.
Crystal patted her shoulder and asked, “What happened? Do you fall in love at first sight?”
Alina giggled. “No, I am not like you. You are the one who can fall in love at first sight. But you never told me who he is. You even go to the pack every three months just to see your prince charming. Isn’t it?”

Alina thought about the day four years ago, when Crystal came back from the pack after vacation and told her about the man she fell in love with. That time Alina didn’t believe in her. But after that, Crystal went every three months to the pack house just to see him. It was like she was obsessed with him.

“Shh. Don’t talk about him here openly. And he is not any prince charming.” Crystal whispered to Alina.
“Really? Then who is he?” Alina asked jokingly. She thought Crystal would not answer her and ignore the question again. But this time Crystal answered her with a lower tone but Alina could hear her clearly.

“HE IS THE LYCAN KING.”

Summary

Novel title	Alpha’s Virgin Wife
Protagonist	Shilah, King Dakota
Author	Baby Charlene
Number of Chapters	263
Publishing platform	MoboReader

She was a diamond covered by ashes….

King Dakota was known as the most Powerful Alpha King of all times – more powerful than any other King that had ruled from his lineage.

He was cold hearted, introverted and dangerous in anger.

Cursed by the Moon goddess, King Dakota had to get married to three wives all in search of a male child that would become his heir, but it was impossible as the curse would only let his wives bear she -wolves. But on a different day, the King meets a lady who offends him and as a punishment, he took her home as his fourth wife. Her name was Shilah.

Shilah was a powerless wolf and as a result, was disregarded and intimidated by all. But, when she begins to do things that the King had never felt for years, he began to wonder who she really was. Slowly, she crawled her way into his icy heart and turned out to be something nobody ever expected – a storm.

Chapter 1 THE ALPHA WITHOUT AN HEIR

INTRO

She panted heavily as she ran in the dark woods, her legs cutting so many distance in a split second. If it wasn’t for the sound of her legs rustling against the leaves and the raucous men chasing after her from behind, she was damn sure her stolid breath would’ve been overheard.

“Faster!!!”

“We’re losing her!!!”

“Lura would have our heads if we let her go!”

The men yelled from behind, and tho she was scared, she made no attempt to look at them.

The little one whined in her arms – the little one which she held to her chest, wrapped in a thick fabric. She must be so scared and tired from all the running already.

“I’m sorry, baby. I’m sorry” the woman whimpered and increased her pace.

How does she lose the men behind her? The forest was extremely dark with just a dim reflection of the moonlight aiding her path.

A light sob racked her throat and suddenly, she felt a sharp pain on her leg which threw her to the floor.

“Argh!!!” She cried out, unimaginable pains coursing through her body.
Her baby got loose from her arms and rolled to the floor, also letting out her own cry.

“No….!” The mother whimpered, holding onto her leg.

She could tell she’d been shot with an arrow – an arrow poisoned with Sitos, one of the witches’ greatest poisons. No one can survive it…. No one.

Her baby…. her Baby….

She repudiated the pains and crawled to where her baby was, drawing her close and placing her next to her chest as her back hit the floor. No doubt, the men would definitely be catching up with her now.

“Your fight is over, Ayita” she suddenly heard a voice, that menacing female voice.

She’d known it was her; she’d known the poisoned arrow came from her.

She looked up and could see her standing there in the dark, dressed in her long black dress; so long, it swept the floor.

“Lura, please….” The woman on the floor winced.

“You really think you can run away from your judgement, Ayita? ” She snapped in.
“You thought you were smart enough to escape the penalty for your foolishness?”

Sobs racked her throat.

“My child has nothing to do with this…. please, don’t hurt her….”

“Your daughter has EVERYTHING to do with this!” A lightening cracked the sky as Lura spoke angrily.

“Your daughter, Ayita, is a curse. She became a curse the very day you mated with one of our enemies and begat her. You broke one of our sacred rules, Ayita, and you and your hybrid daughter has to pay for it!”

“She won’t be a problem… I’ve made sure of that. Please Lura, you have to listen to me…..”

“You’re a witch, Ayita; one of our best. You shouldn’t have fallen for an enemy and worst, have a child for him. You disappointed me”.

“No, please…”

“Talking time is over, Ayita!” Her roar caused another crack in the sky.
The men chasing Ayita had already gotten to the spot and all stopped to watch.

“As the Queen of the Oceanic Witches of the West, I hereby sentence you, Ayita and your daughter, to death” she stretched out her hand towards her direction and that was the moment Ayita knew her life would come to an end – if she didn’t do a thing.

There was only thing she could do – fighting Lura. But with the poison in her system, using her powers would definitely drain and kill her. But her baby…. she had no choice.

So, just when Lura was about using the wand, Ayita let out a loud scream – one that caused a thunderstorm this time around.

The vibration cracked the sky and quaked the trees around, Lura was taken abacked.

“Ayita!!!!!!” She roared the name in agony and quickly released the powers from her wand, but it was already too late as a howling wind swept her off her feet, took her so far, she cut a tree off it’s root before crashing along with it.

The men around were not left out as the wind also howled them away.
No one would survive that; Ayita was certain

And few minutes later, after the scream, the entire place became still and calm. It was so calm; only the perkings of the crickets could be heard, and the sharp cry of the little one.

Ayita could feel the strength departing from her already – every single strength, her hand could barely hold her little one beside her.

“I love you, baby….” She muttered weakly and finally.
She heard someone whispered : “Take the baby. Don’t let anyone know she is the next……..”
her eyes went close in sleep.

23 YEARS LATER

In a dimmed – light room. Four women could be seen in it; one on the bed, and three surrounding the one on the bed.

“Arghhhh….!!!!!” The one on the bed screamed, her eyes going extremely tight in agony.

Her legs were knee bent and wide opened, granting enough access to the mid-wives.

“Harder, Nosheba! I can see the baby’s head already!” The chief mid-wife urged and it gave the weak woman some hope as she took her lips into her mouth and pushed hard – harder than she could. She had to bit her inner cheeks.
This was her second time giving birth and she was really hoping it’d be a boy. She had prayed day and night to the moon goddess to make it a boy so she could be the one to give the Alpha an heir!

But, why was it so difficult this time around?

“One more time….!” The mid wife yelled.

And another push – “Arghhhh………!”

And pup! Came the baby’s round head.

A gasp escaped from the other three women as they meticulously pulled out the head until the two tiny legs came pulling out as well. A sharp tiny cry erupted the room immediately.

Unlike every other birth, the mid-wives didn’t break out for joy instantly as they had one more thing to confirm.

The chief was the one doing the job and nervously, her eyes went down to the baby’s legs – in between. And her heart skipped heavily when she saw the small pelvic.

Fear and disappointment ran through her face.

“Ahiga, what is it?” One of the two asked, her eyes wide with curiosity and anxiety.
Her heart was on her throat as she awaited the answer.

Ahiga – the chief mid-wife stared dreadfully at the baby before looking up at her co worker.

“It’s a female” she finally said and instantly transferred the fear and disappointment on her face to them.

“Oh! Blessed Selene!” The second one exclaimed.

The baby was still crying and the chief looked at the mother who had already fallen asleep.

This was really bad; really bad – she thought.

“Kimi, you should go tell the King about it. He’s waiting outside and not hearing the Queen scream anymore, but a baby crying, he definitely knows the baby’s out”. The chief said while placing the crying baby on the floor.

“What?? And why should I be the one to do it, Ahiga? You are our leader. It should be carried out by you” the second mid wife – kimi- retorted immediately.

“But you’re always the one who goes out to inform the couples of the sex of their child, Kimi. What are you saying?” Ahiga asked, her worried face belying the strict tone of her voice.

“I do that with normal couples, not…. someone like the King” Kimi replied.

“Come on, Kimi. This isn’t the time for this …”

“Maybe, Louise should do it” she suddenly pointed to the last mid wife beside her.
“She’s the youngest amongst us” .

“Whaaat???” Louise shrieked and shook her head adamantly.
“Please, don’t even think of doing this to me. My betrothed will be coming to see me, nine days from now. And if everything goes as planned, we’ll be getting married after the 5th full moon”.

Ahiga sighed and shook her head as her co workers argued about it. She stared at the baby on the floor. Who was going to deliver the news to the King? Definitely, it was a risk; a really big risk.

But she knew it wouldn’t take long from now before the King walks in himself to know what was going on. And it was definitely going to be worst if he gets to find out himself”.

“It’s fine. I’ll go” her voice came up and the two ladies looked at her with so much relief.

“Thank you so much, Ahiga. I believe you’ll be fine” Kimi said, but Ahiga said nothing as she started towards the door.
*
*
In a long broad corridor, the King could be seen pacing around – tho and fro.

It wasn’t the usual hyperventilative ‘tho and fro’ that other people do;, with King Dakota, it was always different.

Tho, he was anxious and paced tho and fro, he still looked a lot calm like one who was in deep thougts and felt like pacing tho and fro in order to aid his thoughts.

His hands were crossed at his back, his crown on his head and his royal robe sweeping the neat floor as he paced.
Two guards were at the entrance of the corridor and two ahead of him – for his protection. It wasn’t like he needed their protection, anyways.

His eyes glanced at the door each time he turned towards that direction. What was taking them so long? He was sure the Queen had stopped screaming and the baby, crying. Why were none of the mid wives out already?
The curse from the moon goddess filled his mind as he hoped this baby could broke the curse…..

He tried excersing a little patience and shortly, he heard the door open.

He turned around snappily to take a look and saw the chief mid wife walking out. He stopped walking but didn’t budge forward to meet her, instead he waited for her to meet him.

He could notice the woman was tactically slackening her steps as it was taking her longer time to get to where he was.

“How was it, Ahiga?” He asked gruffly.
“What is the sèx of the baby?”
He went straight to the point.

The average woman took a really deep breath before proceeding.

“M…M…My King” she helplessly stuttered, her head bowed.
“Gr…. Greetings, My King”.

“Tell me what my ears longs for, Ahiga”. His voice was rasped, she swallowed hard.

No need beating round the bush; he was still going to find out – Ahiga thought.

“My…. My King”, she continued, looking so sweaty already.
“It’s a….it’s a beautiful girl”.

And that was it.

The anxiety on the Alpha King’s face melted down instantly as his brows furrowed in surprise? And dismay.

Immediately, the words of the Seer came flashing into his head, few weeks ago when he’d visited him.

Your second wife, Queen Nosheba, carries a she-wolf.

He’d been so angry and doubted him before leaving, but he was right…! He was right.

Ahiga was still shaken in front of her with her head bowed. He wasn’t saying anything and it was tearing her apart. Should she just turn around and walk away?

Suddenly, she felt a firm grip on her neck, one that lifted her feet off the floor and made them dangled in the air.
It was the King…!

Her eyes dilated in fear and shock as he choked her, holding her neck mercilessly tight.

His eyes were flaming; glinting with so much anger.

And in that icy voice, he said:
“This should be the last time you ever bring bad news to me, Ahiga”

And with that, he threw her roughly on the floor and marched away.
He didn’t want to see the newly born child; not even a sight.

King Dakota was known as the superior Alpha King of the seven mountains and six covens. The mountains was a basement for seven different packs while the covens belonged to the Vampire. Each pack had it’s Alpha, and each coven had it’s VampLord, but King Dakota was the ruler of them all. The superior Leader of every Alpha and Vamp Lord.

So many years ago, the werewolves – also known as the mountains lions – Vampires and Witches were not in good terms. They were always having a fight and had so many restrictions.

The war lasted for a very long time until the wolves and vampires decided it was high time they put a stop to it. They decided to form a treaty so they can be over one governance. But there couldn’t be more than one leader, thus, they decided to have a fight between a representative from each group with the winner becoming the overall leader. And while these preparations were going on, the witches vowed not to be a part of it.

A representative from the Wolves and one from the vamps stepped out for a fight and eventually, the Wolves won. So, the winner from there wolf became the superior Leader. That was King Dakota’s grandfather.

The wolves and vampires formed new rules and constitutions for themselves, they did it collectively.

They all wanted peace and equality and since then till date, there had been no more fights between the wolves and vampires. But since the witches had refused taking part in the treaty, they were forever banished from ever stepping foot in their lands, and the witches took an oath never to have anything to do with the mountain Lions or blood suckers.

And so it has been for a very long time.

The superior leadership has long stayed with the Wolves, from Dakota’s great grandfather, to his grandfather, to his own father, and then to him – himself – King Dakota.
But in all history, he appeared to be more different, powerful and brutal than his fathers.

Everyone feared him – the way he fought against the rogues and other enemies. He was too brutal and powerful and earned so much fear and respect from all.

But the Almighty King Dakota had only one problem. Well, maybe he had other problems, but this was the most critical.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t get a male child, an heir to take over him when he was done. And without an heir, his throne was bound to be unstable. It was a bigger problem to him as he felt cursed. Yes, he was cursed – by the moon goddess.

He’s been married to three women already, and from all three women he’d gotten 4 children – all females.

He knew he was cursed, but the question was why?

He arrived at his chambers not long after and settled in, sitting on the bed with his head in his palms. Why was his case different – he thought regrettably. Why?

It didn’t take long, his gamma walked in.

“I do not want to be disturbed, Pishan” King Dakota said with his head still in his palms.
He didn’t need to take a look before knowing who it was. He was used to the scent of the top people in his mountain.

The gamma – Pishan – stopped by the door – his eyes staring at the heavily-built man in front of him. Blessed with the body of a true ruler,the King had some kind of dauntlessness around him – one that made him feared by all. He was the only one who knew the King so well and could correctly guess what was wrong with him at the moment.

“Forgive me for interrupting, My King, but I only wish to confirm the order for tomorrow. Should the lockdown still be effective?” he said and King Dakota released his head from his palm to look at him.

“The order still stands” he growled.

“I wouldn’t want anyone being around when it happens. So, anyone who breaks the rule by stepping out tomorrow, will be killed”.

Chapter 1 Slave

Sylvia’s POV:

“Sylvia, you lazy slave! Do you know what time is it now? Why are you still sleeping?”

I struggled to get up from the wooden bed and looked at the time. It was not even five o’clock in the morning yet. I rubbed my throbbing temples. Then I hurriedly put on my thin coat and opened the door.

A fat she-wolf was blocking the door.

With a ferocious look on her face, she pointed at my nose and snapped, “Today is the Alpha Ceremony. Why are you still asleep? Have you finished all your work?”

I didn’t say anything and just lowered my head.

I only slept for less than an hour because I spent the entire night cleaning up the conference room. My mind was still in a mess.

“Why are you still standing there? Go finish all your work!” she roared again.

Then she glared at me, turned around, and left with heavy steps.

I sighed and walked to the cloakroom, where the clothes needed to be ironed piled on the rack. Shawn Gibson was turning eighteen today, and he was going to take over the throne during the Alpha Ceremony. I had to prepare the clothes he was going to wear.

The sun was already rising outside when I finished ironing the clothes.

The territory of the Black Moon Pack was covered by dark clouds all year round, and it was always damp and cold. I wrapped my tattered cotton-padded clothes tightly around my body and carried a bucket to the banquet hall.

Many kinds of exquisite tableware had already been placed in the hall. After the Alpha Ceremony, all the guests would gather here to celebrate the promotion of the new Alpha.

I was wiping the steps with a rag when a stiletto stepped on it.

I looked up to see who it was. Then I saw Cherry, Gamma’s daughter. She was wearing a black mermaid dress, and her red hair was curled. She looked very attractive.

“Step aside,” I said coldly.

“Excuse me? Do you know what kind of place this is? You don’t deserve to come here at all.” Cherry then kicked my bucket arrogantly.

“Cherry! You are going too far.”

“What? A mere slave is mad at me? How interesting! But actually, I can make you even angrier.” Cherry flipped her long curly hair and sneered. She glared at me with a pair of mean eyes, clapped her hands, and ordered, “Bring it here.”

A she-wolf came over. She carried a bucket of swill and poured it on the stairs in front of me. The stench instantly filled the air.

I watched this scene with cold eyes. Hatred filled my heart. With a vicious smile on her face, Cherry crossed her arms over her chest. Obviously, she was waiting to see a good show.

She only wanted to see me break down. But of course, I wouldn’t let her have the last laugh.

“Is that all?” I glanced at her expressionlessly and immediately picked up the rag to clean the mess she just did.

Perhaps my indifferent reaction had irritated her. The corners of Cherry’s mouth twitched. She was apparently disappointed.

“You are a natural bitch,” she snorted contemptuously and walked away. The click-clack of her high heels sounded on the floor.

She was finally gone. It was only then that I let go of the tears I had been holding back. In times like this, I missed my mother even more.

I wasn’t born a slave. My mother was the Beta of this pack. It was rare for a pack to have a female Beta even in history. She was capable and well-loved by the pack. She was known to be gentle but tough.

But I didn’t have a father as far as I could remember. And to make up for my lack of fatherly love, my mother loved me with all of her heart. She spoiled me and treated me like a princess. When I was young, I tried to ask her about my father. However, she was extremely reticent when it came to him. As time went by, I didn’t ask anymore. After all, having her was already enough for me.

But fate always loved to play jokes on people. My kind and powerful mother was framed for killing the Alpha and the Luna. She was executed.

I became an orphan. The pack labeled me as the traitor’s daughter. They were angry at me, blaming me for their loss of their Alpha and Luna. As a result, they made me the lowest slave in the pack and gave me endless work to do every day. Apart from that, I would always suffer from humiliation and beatings from time to time.

At the thought of this, I wiped my tears and continued to work with my head down. I had to finish cleaning up this place before the guests arrived. Otherwise, I would suffer more than just beatings and starvation.

“Oh, my dear Sylvia, don’t be sad. I will always be by your side.” My wolf Yana comforted me in my head.

“Don’t worry, Yana. I’m fine. I’m lucky that you’re here. I am no longer alone.”

“You will never be alone. Aside from me, you will also meet your mate in the future.”

“But I’m already eighteen years old, and I still haven’t met him yet,” I said, sounding a little disappointed.

My mother was independent and strong. But I knew how hard it was for her to raise me alone. Sometimes I couldn’t help thinking if she had had a mate to accompany her, she might have lived a much happier life. Thus, I always had a secret expectation for my future mate.

“My dear, this pack is too small. Your mate may be somewhere else,” Yana comforted me softly. She then added, “Maybe we should run away.”

“No, it’s not a good time. I still haven’t proven my mother’s innocence yet.”

My mother’s grievances had been pressing on my heart like a boulder. So before I left this pack, I must prove her innocence first.
