Chapter 59
It was hard to smile at a woman who I knew would not hesitate to harm me if she thought she could get away with it. In the first place, I disliked pretence but these days, all I did was pretend. Thus, I could not be bothered to return her smile.
“My dear,” the Luna Queen said, her lips smiling but her eyes hard. “I have been quite curious about you.”
“It is a pleasure to know that the mother of Deimos has any interest in me.” I hoped my flat tone was not considered disrespectful.
“The entire Deimos is curious about you.” She laughed. “Much like your father, you are a difficult person to run into. An industrious woman like you is a treasure many are interested in.”
“I suppose so.” I forced a grin. “I am, after all, my father’s daughter.”
Jennifer Slater could not grind her teeth harder if she tried.
Two days ago, I received an invitation to a &lsq

“Miss, you are here.” Beta Faris came running towards me.When I got to Koa’s place, I did not meet him. Instead, his Beta rushed towards me with a fake smile on his face.“We did not know to expect you.”He regarded me with a guarded smile that felt off. I had nothing to do with Faris so there was no reason for him to treat me like a rogue about to charge.Then I remembered my reputation and sighed to myself. Some people treated me like a crazy person about to go off at any time. It was a reputation I earned before going back in time so Faris’ behaviour should not be all that surprising.It was also not a reputation I cared about correcting.“Am I not welcomed here?” I asked with quirked brows.“Ah, I never meant –“ He cringed. “You are here to see Alpha Koa, right?”“Where is he?” I looked around the space I had been asked to wait.It was my first time coming to see him without letting him know beforehand. I had never been made to wait for him. Thinking back, I realized it may be be

“Yes, and my father. She will strike at him too.” The weapon she could not have should be destroyed.I did not expect an attack on my father’s life now but I could never be too safe. It was bound to happen in the future, especially now that I was going to be a lot more open with my connection with Koa.“The Crimson Wolf has vanquished a score of rogues in the past few weeks. It is absurd that you think a man like him will need protection,” Koa said but he had not seen my father get his head chopped off so I ignored him.“Also, never forget you are to inform me when his name comes from your parents’ mouth.”With Alpha Koa protecting my father, I could be assured he was in good hands. Since he planted a spy on the Alpha King, if he were to send out people to hurt my father, he would be aware and would act accordingly.“He is going to be my father-in-law so I will protect him well,” he said w

“No, no!” I screamed, fighting the iron grip on my biceps. “No, you have to believe me. I never – Cass, please, you have to believe me!” I screamed, looking at my mate.I heard a whoosh. My heart went into free fall before my world went still. He didn’t believe me. I looked around at all the eyes fixated on me. No one did. No one believed me. The silence in the room rang in my ears. It was loud. Deafening.“Cass, I – I would never –“ The silence still rang in my ears. My voice sounded like it belonged to another woman. It couldn’t have been mine. “I would never poison April.” The silence shattered with the glass in my mate’s palm.“You dare – How dare you speak her name?” My mate hissed at me. His red eyes glowed in the dimly lit hall. They brimmed with hatred.“Cass –“ I looked around a second time. I did not want to believe it. How could I? How could I believe that everyone turned their backs on me when I needed them the most?“You will address me as Alpha Cassius Raven.” He stepped

“Goddess, no!” I swatted at the blinding white light filling my vision.“Miss Persephone, please calm down!” A muffled voice sounded in my ringing ears. Pins pricked all parts of my skin, making me moan in pain. “Miss–“ The voice calling out my name faded as darkness embraced me.“Anastacia,” an ethereal voice wrapped around me in the darkness.Anastacia.It was my middle name which no one addressed me by except my aunt who died over a decade ago. It was what my mother called me before she died but my father preferred Persephone, a name fitting for a bringer of death to his beloved mate.“Is she awake?”“Miss Persephone?” Blinding white light filled my vision again. My eyes opened to see what the afterlife had waiting for me. It was dark, quiet, mournful, and somewhat angst-ridden.“Where – Where am I?” I looked around me, turning back to the white light. I flinched when I realized the ‘white light’ was actually Doctor Lorenzo’s salty white hair. “Ha, did he get you too?” Light floode

Two years after Cassius became an Alpha, his pack demanded a Luna and I thought he would choose me. I was stupid to think that. To him, I was his best friend but my heart stuttered in his presence. Cassius didn’t see me as a romantic partner. He had no interest in romance, actually.I made my father propose the idea of linking our families. Cassius revered my father too much to say no to his face, so he came to me. He told me he didn’t want to mate with me as he only saw me as a friend. It broke my heart but I was persistent. I sent my father back with an ultimatum. If Cassius did not mate with me, the Adelard family would find another pack to support. He had no choice.His pack had their reservations. My father’s name was the only good thing about me. I had a bad temper. I was vain and rude. How could I lead as the Luna when I behaved like a surly sixteen-year-old even at twenty? No one opposed me to my face because I had Cassius and my father backing me but I heard all the bad thing

“The – The Alpha is in a meeting right now.” My father’s secretary shivered in his boots when I arrived. “If the Missus had made an appointment, perhaps –““An appointment to see my father? Does it sound right in your ears for a daughter to schedule an appointment to visit her father?” I asked Mr. Kim, my father’s secretary.“My lady, the Alpha is an important person who one can’t –““I shall wait for him,” I cut him off but he kept going.“You cannot barge in – What?” His mouth fell open. “I mean – You will wait for him?” His voice shook with disbelief as he asked.“Yes. I would like a cup of tea while I wait.” I saw myself to the waiting room.“Is that really Lady Persephone?”“She will wait rather than barge in on the Alpha?”“It seems she knows the relevance of this meeting.”“Doesn’t she seem a bit – off?”I zoned out of the whispers exploding around my father’s office. Wolves had great senses. Some could smell things hundreds of metres away while others had enviable night vision

“Sorry for keeping you waiting.” Cassius came out with a smile on his lips. It was a smile I came to call ‘my special smile’ because Cassius never smiled.Born to an omega single mother, he lived as the pack runt for the better part of his life. When his mother died from a mysterious disease that degenerated our kingdom’s omega population, his Alpha took him in, only to mistreat him. He served as the Alpha’s steward, his knight, and a vessel for unleashing his anger until he killed him. He lived a tough life that toughened him.“It’s no problem.” I adjusted myself in my seat. My mission here was tricky and might fail but I had to try. “How are you?” I cleared my throat. My words had no emotions in them, sounding as if I did not care about his well-being.“Why does it sound as if you don’t care about that?” He chuckled. “I have a meeting in twenty minutes so let’s cut to the chase. Why did you request an audience with me so early in the day?” He was in the best mood during the mornings

“This won’t do.”Back in my room, I stared at myself in the mirror. My eyes were hollow and red and my skin was shockingly pale. My head hurt, my body hurt and my mind hurt. Knowing the past or the future, I suppose, I could not afford to mate with Cassius but I also could not annul the engagement on my own, not without Cassius’ consent. The only other way was for my father to step in and I had vowed to keep him out of all this.This was the mess I created and the last time he tried to clean up my mess, he had his throat cut. I swallowed through my dry throat. “No, this won’t do,” I muttered to myself.“Miss Persephone?” Sylvia knocked on my door. “Emma is here for the final dress fitting.”“Send her in. Have someone prepare tea and some snacks. She must have set out without breakfast to arrive here this early.” My fingers drummed against my chair handle.This would not do.Cassius was one of the most powerful men in the Deimos kingdom now and I made him. I built him with my hands fr
