Eighty-eight
She betrayed me. I was an idiot for trusting her. I thought there was a chance for us to be actual sisters, but I was wrong. She was a Crimson. Their venomous blood ran through her veins. Giving her a second chance cost me my freedom, but I was sure that he was coming for me. The whole pack would come for me.
“Ayla, you have to believe me. I swear I knew nothing about this.” Crocodile tears rushed down Oriana’s face as she stood behind the bars separating us.
“There’s no need to carry on with your act, Oriana. I fell for your words and here I am in the dungeons, but I can assure you that they will come for me. Silver Moon will rattle your temporary peace,” I spat, doing my best to ignore the burning sensation of the silver manacles against my bare wrists.
“I didn’t know! I swear on my daughter’s life. I never wanted to hurt you,” she whimpered, but I ignored every word that escaped her lips. “It w

The Alpha's Halo Eighty-nine: Xander
They had my mate and I needed to be fast. I was aware that by every minute, she was suffering one way or another. I wasn’t going to sit on my ass and feel her pain through the bond without doing anything.Almost six days passed over the last time I heard her sweet voice through the bond. I barely slept as I spent days and nights preparing my warriors for the attack. No words were sent to the council because they would do nothing but delay me.I intended to kill Oriana the moment I saw her. She betrayed Ayla even after she was forgiving enough to reconsider a relationship with her. Betrayal ran through her blood. She was a Crimson after all.“Xander, we received this almost ten minutes ago. A Crimson left it on our borders and left,” Keith told me, handing me a paper. We were all gathered at my house to put the final touches to our plan. We were going to retrieve Ayla. She was our Luna and we were ready to do anything to get her back.The
The Alpha's Halo Ninety
My wrists were on fire from the silver chains. I was lying down on the hard ground. I had been in this cell more than once, and each time, my blood used to run cold and I always thought I was going to die. Even though this was my first time to be chained with silver here, I wasn't afraid. I knew I was helpless and the silver was wearing me down, but I was certain help was on its way. Most of the time, they kept me sedated and I was barely given food. Oriana did her best to help me out which made me believe that she was innocent, yet part of me was still reluctant. She snuck food for me from time to time and she even stayed for hours with me, trying to keep me company even when I gave her a hard time. Neither my mate nor my family was going to leave me here. It was a matter of time. I was sure of that. I was hoping that Xander would act rationally. I didn’t hear him talk to me after the last time he did. I had been waiting for a while. I just needed to get out of here
The Alpha's Halo Ninety-one
The moment I walked out of the Alpha’s house, I could hear the howls and fights that filled the area. “I'm free! I'm coming!” I told my pack through the link. I followed their scents, hoping that they were really winning just like Oriana told me. If my mate or any of my family got hurt, I was going to tear Crimson into pieces. “Hurry up, Luna,” Keith replied. Relief washed over me once I heard back from any of them. Thankful for the elastic clothes I changed into, I quickly turned into my wolf form and I dashed towards my family. “Are you safe?” I had to know. Please Moon Goddess, let them all be okay. When I received no reply, I raced towards their scent. Not them. Not my family. I waited for so long to have people like them. I wasn't ready to lose any of them. My heartbeats accelerated when I reached the battlefield. There was no time to be nervous or scared. I was going to defend each mem
The Alpha's Halo Epilogue
Xander fulfilled his promise. He gave me my dream wedding, just like how I imagined it in my head. As always, he did whatever he could to make my dreams come true. Excitement filled me as I stared at my reflection in the mirror. The white gown I was wearing was everything I could wish for in a wedding dress. The top was heart-shaped and the sleeves were long, glittery, and sheer. Tiny stars of a lighter shade than the dress’s colour were scattered on the fabric, making me feel like I placed a hint of my favorite time of the day on one of the most memorable dresses I would ever wear. Melanie made sure to design the skirt of the dress as a modified A-line, knowing it was my favorite. Despite her pregnancy, she insisted on making me the dress. She gave me a flawless one. “Here you go.”Oriana placed the floral tiara on my head, making me smile. “You look gorgeous,” she beamed, gently hugging me from behind. “Thank you,” I grinned, placing my hands over hers.
The Alpha's Halo Bonus 1
By winning the battle over Crimson, I became the legal heir of being its Alpha. After all, I was Elbert’s daughter and the Luna of the pack that won the battle, not to mention that I was a member of Crimson; Elbert never declared me a rogue. According to the Charter that set the provisions for packs, if a member of a pack won in a battle against the Alpha of the said pack, then legally, the said member had the right to the Alpha position. Since Silver Moon’s victory meant my victory too, this meant that I was the new Alpha of Crimson. Since I had become the Alpha of Crimson, everything related to the pack was under my administration, but I demanded a meeting with our friends who were also our advisors— Oriana and Dorin, her mate, were also among the advisors. There was something important I wanted to talk to them about. “It doesn’t make sense if I am a Luna here and an Alpha there. This is too confusing and pointless,” I spoke, earning their attention. The wedding wa
The Alpha's Halo Bonus 2
The plane landed and it took everything in me to prevent myself from squealing like a child. I couldn't believe that I was here again. I was less than an hour away from seeing Delora. I missed her so much. FaceTiming and constantly talking weren't enough. I needed to see her. “Somebody seems ecstatic.” I could feel the grin in Xander’s voice. “I can't believe that I'm here! It's been so long since I last saw her,” I told him. I wished I could tell her what I was, so she would be able to visit me in California, but I couldn't do that. I was afraid of the way she might react. Some things were better left unsaid. The two of us got up once we were allowed to leave the plane. Delora was waiting for us at the airport, but we weren't going to her apartment. I decided to make my friend experience the lush life she never got to have. Since Xander and I were going to stay at a seven-star hotel for two weeks, I booked a room for her too. I wanted to spend as muc
The Alpha's Halo Prologue
I shivered, sticking my body to the wall, trying to get any source of warmth in this cold cell. I shouldn't have questioned her. I should have just cleaned her room again. I brought my knees close to my chest, crying silently as I hoped somebody would get me out soon. The sky thundered, causing me to whimper. Did they decide to kill me slowly? Was I going to die in this horrendous cell? I didn't want this to be my end. I looked down at my hands and saw them trembling. They were turning a bit blue. A shaky breath escaped my mouth and I saw the water vapour disappear in the air. “I hope you have learned your lesson, Ayla.” I heard Charlene’s voice. They decided to let me out. I sighed in relief. “Y-Yes. I'm sorry. I won't…” I struggled to catch my breath, “I won't question your orders again.” I whimpered. Every inch of my body was in absolute pain. I was ready to do anything to get out of that cell. I just needed the trace of freedom they allowed me to
The Alpha's Halo One
Doing my best to ignore the shooting pain in my side, I limped through the forest, trying to stay hidden. The creaking noise of the leaves beneath my feet would usually make it harder for anyone to go unnoticed, but the rain covered the sound of my steps; something I was thankful for. I hid behind one of the enormous trees and looked down at my hand. The gash on my side did not stop oozing blood and its pain did not cease. My body strongly shook as my torn clothes did not help with keeping me warm. My clattering teeth affected my ability to think clearly. I wiped the blood dripping from my nose with the back of my hand: the punch was so strong. Maybe it broke my nose. “Come out come out wherever you are.” The menacing voice taunted me, making me squeeze her eyes shut as my tears rolled down my cheeks. My head was pounding and I was getting more exhausted. I struggled to make my way through the darkness, not knowing if I would be able to survive the night or n
