Alpha Adonis   Twenty-Seven
AdonisI had no plans of going to the mainland, but there was a lot of work to be done because I was overcompensating for my lack of a sane wolf. I always made sure to take great care with the tiniest details to the point that some people called me a perfectionist. Stepping off the plane onto the mainland, an entourage of guards followed closely behind. I had a busy schedule ahead of me with at least six crucial meetings to attend. The first was with the elders, where we discussed the recent border disputes with our neighboring pack and listened to all of their complaints. The second was with the warriors and border guards, who kept me updated with security. The third was with three werewolf alphas with whom we had trade relations, and my presence secured a deal. The final meeting was with the council.The chamber fell silent when I arrived and my eyes scanned the room. Everyone got up and paid their respects to me. My distant cousins, who were always ready to undermine my efforts,

IrisMy body froze mid-movement, and I felt an uncontrollable shudder sweep through me when the matron announced that we had to go through a final check on our wolf form. Yikes. I didn't know what to do, and I was running short of options. The doctors were on their way to ensure that our wolves were healthy and without any abnormalities.The last time we'd been told to do a wolf shift, I had lied and stayed in the sick bay. But I couldn't pull that stunt again; the matron would suspect something was off, especially since Adonis had told her that he'd picked me, so she would want my examination to be thorough. My brain was a mess. What could I say or do? I couldn't just walk out of there because the other contestants were already heading towards the examination room, chatting and laughing like they didn't have a care in the world."Please let the doctors not come," I said under my breath, begging the moon goddess to let them have an emergency. Unfortunately, it seemed the moon godde

When the matron greeted me with a thin-lipped smile, I felt immediately uncomfortable. Why was she acting nice to me? Not just her, the chef presented me with the largest chicken on the platter. "Enjoy your meal, dear," he said, and I looked around feeling very uneasy, glad that none of the girls really noticed. Even the usually stern PE instructor cracked a smile when he passed by.Their kindness to me seemed insincere; it was crazy how things had changed around here. Just hours ago, most of the staff members treated me like dirt, and now they were fawning all over me like I had changed overnight or something. All thanks to Adonis, who told the matron he had chosen me as the winner, and now everyone was suddenly being nice to me like they were trying to curry favor or something. Unfortunately, I wasn't buying this sudden change of heart and knew they were just trying to impress the alpha and get on his good side.I gazed at the chicken on my plate and Natalia, who was sitting acros

Adonis The night went on, and I scowled as I stood at the clock, wondering what was keeping Iris from coming to me. The girl's touch was addictive, and I craved her presence at all times."Where the hell are you?" I groaned to myself, repeatedly running my hands through my head and mentally berating her for wasting my time. I hoped they hadn't assigned her any foolish activity to engage in."Come on, Iris," I muttered, walking to the banister, "come over already."I wanted her to be present so that I wouldn't transform into my wolf. After thirty minutes, there was still no sign of her. To stay awake, I decided to go to my private gym and do some light cardio.My feet pounded the treadmill for several miles before switching to weightlifting. I enjoyed the physical activity, but eventually got bored and gave up.After I took a shower, my restlessness became more intense. Had Iris forgotten about our agreement? I started pacing back and forth because I didn't want to transform into my

Alexander sat in his car outside the Sister Sanctuary, staring off into the distance. He didn't want to go inside because the old brick building was depressing.He felt a little guilty about not renovating the place, given that his daughter had been there for years before fleeing. But the omegas didn't deserve any kind of luxury. They were weak links and should be treated accordingly.His impatience was wearing thin, and he wondered what the incompetent matron was doing inside. He got out of his car, which was parked a short distance from the gate, and ordered the guard to go get the matron.There was no love lost between Alexander and his daughter, Iris. He didn't care about her at all, but she was his only child and a constant reminder of the Moon Goddess' curse.He was only keeping an eye on her because he didn't want his subjects to label him a careless father. His thoughts kept returning to her face, her innocent eyes, her naive heart, and her stinking Omega blood.Iris expected

IrisI sat in a well-ventilated lecture hall, which had a presenter's voice droning on about the importance and role of the Lycan luna. Sitting attentively, I fixed my gaze on the speaker, while Natalia dozed beside me, her scarf covering her face."As Luna, you must understand the value of diplomacy," the presenter explained. "You must learn to cooperate with the alpha and never make decisions on your own."With Adonis possibly choosing me, I had to be prepared and understand what I was getting myself into. I was even taking notes, hoping to absorb every word and detail.I wondered what it was like to be the alpha's mate. Will I have real power, or will I simply be a figurehead? To think I was changing from spectator to potential alpha mate. It was intimidating to think about.The presenter interrupted my thoughts. "What's going on? Were you all given sleeping pills or something? "Everyone on your feet," she ordered, ringing the bell. "We will now break into groups for a discussion

When I entered Adonis' room, the lighting was dim and barely revealed his sleeping figure. Despite his powerful Lycan nature, he looked subdued, as if he had been knocked out by strong medications. My mind was filled with confusion. How could someone so powerful as Adonis fall ill? His blood was stronger than most werewolves', and he should be more resistant to illnesses and diseases than we are.Fred's gaze bore into me as if reading my thoughts. His smile, though gentle, seemed forced."Don't worry about him," he assured me. "It's just stress. I'm sure when he wakes up, he'll feel a lot better.""What's causing him stress?" He seemed fine the last time I saw him."Fred ran a hand through his hair, looking uncomfortable as hell. This aroused my curiosity, and I wondered what he was hiding.But who was I to judge him when I was drowning in lies and secrets myself? From his body language, I assumed he was doing the same thing- hiding the truth. The air was heavy with silence, which w
