Chapter OneElsa's POV"Pick it up, Elsa."I bowed my head, struggling to get myself to do what I was asked to. I was fed up with the way that I was treated in the Pack, and desperately craved a change.Being an Omega in the Pack was everyone's nightmare. It meant that I had to be a servant all the days of my life. Alina and her wicked mother, Mel, didn't make it any easier for me. I wished so badly that I could be rid of them for good."I said, pick that up, Elsa!" Alina yelled at me, pointing to a plate that she threw on the floor. I grudgingly walked to the plate and stooped to pick it up but I was met with a blow that landed flush on my right cheek, throwing me to the ground."Serves you right, moron," Alina mocked, sharing a rather scornful laugh with her mother. "Next time, you'd think twice about defying my orders."As I placed my hands on the floor in a bid to get up, I felt a hard kick on my stomach, drawing all of the air out of it. "Mmph!" I groaned, rolling on the floor
Chapter TwoElsa's POVI sat up on the bed after a long sleep and everywhere was already dark. Judging from the sounds of the crickets, I could tell it was already midnight; the perfect time for me to make my move.I looked across to the other areas in the room and I noticed that all the maids were fast asleep, including Maggie.I tiptoed to her bed and tapped her but she wouldn't respond. She was already far gone in her sleep and it was going to take more than a gentle tap to get her to wake up."Maggie," I whispered, trying not to make the others wake up as it was going to ruin my plans.The Alpha had left the Pack earlier that day to visit a neighbouring Pack with some of the guards, leaving the Royal Castle with fewer guards than usual. There was probably no better time for me to escape.I left Maggie's side and walked straight to the place where I kept my bag which I already packed earlier before I slept off. I thought about taking off the blue nightgown that I had on and wearing
Chapter ThreeAlpha Davon's POVI walked into the throne room very early in the morning, summoned by the elders who just wouldn't let me have a good night's rest after a very busy night. "Greetings, Alpha," said the elders, who were already seated waiting for my arrival.Waving at them, I smiled and nodded in acknowledgement. Then, I walked to my throne and sat, placing my hands on the sides of the chair, as I always loved to."Hello, brother."I smiled at my brother as he greeted me, seated on the chair right next to mine. That place was normally reserved for the Beta, who was the second in command, but I was more comfortable having my brother there. When my father died, the Pack was torn between both of us, who was to be the Alpha of the Pack. My father didn't have the chance to declare any of us as his heir due to the unexpected nature of his death and no Pack had ever had two Alphas.The elders decided that we were going to battle it out in a combat that could only be won if one
Chapter FourElsa's POV"Are you done cleaning up the kitchen area?" Maggie asked hurriedly as we stepped out of the room and headed down the hallway."Yes. Sure. I did that earlier this morning," I answered, pausing to scratch my unkempt hair. "I did think I was going to prepare the meal for the guests though. Everyone knows that I'm the best cook here but it seems Melissa didn't want that.""It's Luna Melissa, Elsa. How many times do I have to warn you to address her properly?" Maggie asked, squeezing her face. "You can't tell when she'd suddenly step out and hear you call her that and if we're together, I'll go in for that."I just nodded. I hated to call her anything that wasn't her name. I hated her so much; Alina too. They were undeserving of their respective titles in my opinion."I guess they don't want the Alpha to taste my food and fall in love with me," I suggested. "Perhaps, they have eyes on…"I was cut short by the voices that I heard. We had gotten just outside Alina's
Chapter FiveElsa's POV"You're really going to do it, Elsa? Are you sure you want to risk it all?" Wolf asked excitedly. It was almost as if she was more keen on seeing me take on such a daring adventure than I was. For him, it was more than a quest to be united with my mate; it was also fun to her. She loved that kind of stuff. It was as if she was born for it."Shut up," I spat, wondering how on Earth I managed to have a wolf that was quite the opposite of who I was. If I wasn't strong enough to hold her back, she'd have had control all the time. She was that aggressive."Is it Wolf again?" Maggie asked, with a smile on her face. I nodded and she just shook her head, this time laughing aloud. "You still haven't told me what exactly you have planned to do, Elsa. I'm sure you didn't look so enthusiastic for nothing."I gazed at her for a while, wondering if I could disclose my plans to her. For sure, she was my best friend but I had learned from my mother's life not to trust anyone.
Chapter SixAlina's POV"Mom! It's happening!" I yelled in excitement, jumping up and down in my room as my mother just stared at me with a slight shock on her face."Of course, it is, sweetie," she remarked, shaking her head. "I told you, didn't I? You're a princess; my red hair princess and you deserve nothing but the best. That's why I'm here, honey, to always give you the best.""Thank you so much, Mum," I paced around in excitement, struggling to control my emotions. "I'll be a Luna Queen pretty soon. I can't believe it. I knew he'd love that dress. I was sure he was gonna love it. Why not? It was picked by the best mother in the world, wasn't it?""You can say that again, honey.""Is it the shoes?" I continued, placing both hands of mine on my mother's shoulders. "If I were in his shoes, I'd have fallen for those shoes just like he did. He looked dazzled and for a while, he couldn't get his eyes off me.""For a while?" She asked, concerned."Yes. I noticed that there was a momen
Chapter SevenElsa's POVFour Days Later"Wolf, what is it?" I asked, sitting back down on my bed after I had already stood to head over to the kitchen."I don't know, Elsa. Suddenly, I'm feeling very uneasy and unconvinced about what we want to do.""Why so?" I asked, quite surprised that she'd say that. She was all giggly and enthusiastic when I first thought about it. Indeed, she was one of the main reasons why I chose to go on with it. Her sudden doubts put the entire plan in jeopardy and I didn't want that at all."What if we get caught, Elsa? That'll mean the end of us and I'm not ready to die." She sounded so concerned, in a way I'd never seen. I mean, only a few people were thrilled by the thought of dying, so it wasn't such an easy thing to accept, but we had never been so keen on living either, especially because life wasn't worth it anyway.After so many long years of suffering at the hands of the Luna Queen and her spoiled child, we could finally see a way out; something
Chapter EightElsa's POVIt was the eve of the day that Princess Alina was to be taken to the Stronghold Pack to meet with Alpha Davon and from all that I heard from Maggie, she was more than excited, and why not?Alpha Davon wasn't just an Alpha. He was the Alpha of Alphas. All the alphas in the realm were afraid of him and everyone wanted to be on his good side. No one wanted to see the side of him that wreaked havoc and destruction. It wasn't so pleasant to see.I had been locked up in my room for days so that I wouldn't be able to escape. Only Maggie and two other maids who got me food were allowed into the room and their time was also quite limited. Luna Melissa feared that they might try to help me escape, especially Maggie and she was right.I heard that there were guards everywhere, from right outside my room down to the Pack borders. If anyone didn't know better, they'd think I was the Pack princess with several bodyguards to keep me safe. Instead, they were there to do just
