Daniella’s POV I had been waiting hours for Alpha Morgan, Luna Lara and the quadruplets to return, but there was still no sign of them the following day after the King's ball was over. I couldn't wait to see them and start discussing my upcoming ceremony to be taken as their chosen mate. Tricia kept assuring me that everything would be ok and I shouldn't worry. My parents had no idea what was happening either. Nobody had any answers. My parents and most of the pack were out on the training grounds. I was tired of waiting and I decided to go and find Grayson, since he would know something at least. Knocking on the door of Alpha Morgan's study, I pushed it open and saw Grayson engrossed in whatever paperwork he was busy looking at. “Grayson, can I have a word with you, please? I'm worried about your parents and your brothers. Where are they?” I sat in front of him and waited for him to answer me. Grayson looked up and sneered at the sight of me. I thought how rude and arrogant he
Eliza’s POV I felt a chill run down my spine as I stood in my bedroom, staring at the solid oak door that now seemed a barrier between me and the rest of the world. My father's words echoed: "It's for your good." But what was his good? Why did he suddenly act like a crazy paranoid nutcase? I looked around the room, trying to distract myself from the unease growing inside me. The familiar objects that once comforted me now seemed dull and lifeless. The books on my shelf, the flower-patterned curtains, even the soft bed that had cradled me through nights - everything seemed to be suffocating me. I paced back and forth, my mind racing with questions. What had I done to deserve this? Was it because I had rejected those brothers? Had I somehow disrespected him in some way? I recalled our last conversation, trying to remember any words or actions that might have triggered this reaction. But nothing seemed to make sense. My father had been strict but never cruel in the short time
Eliza's POV Alpha Theron? I didn't know whether to smile or cry at the sight of him. He bowed and kissed my hand. I was in shock because I had not been expecting to see him. "Theron, what brings you here?" I finally opened my mouth and uttered some words. He glanced at my brother and back at me, a glint of happiness in his eyes. "Princess, I wanted to offer you my congratulations on rejecting the wretched Alpha brothers. I came late to the ball last night and stayed in the guest suite. I heard all about what had been happening and wanted to make sure that you were okay before I returned to my own pack. I took a deep breath, trying to process the sudden turn of events. "Thank you, Theron," I said, calm and composed. "I...I didn't expect to see you here." He smiled, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "I know. I apologize if I startled you. But, like I said, I wanted to ensure you were okay. I did not get a chance to see you at the ball." I felt a flush rise to my chee
Rylan's POV I felt relief as the servant's words hung in the air. "You are all free to leave," he said, his tone neutral. "The King has decided to give you a second chance. It was your parents' mistake, not yours, after all." He turned on his heel and exited the room, leaving us to our devices. I was already on my feet, eager to get out of the cold room and back into the bright sunlight. "I'm out of here," Rio said, his voice dripping with disdain. "If our parents have done wrong, that's on them. We didn't ask for this." Enzo nodded in agreement, his eyes flashing with anger. "We didn't deserve to be punished for their mistakes." Edward, however, looked hesitant, his brow furrowed in concern. "But we cannot just leave them; they are our parents regardless." Rio and Enzo looked at Edward as if he were insane. They turned and left the door before another word could be said. Edward turned his focus to me. "What about you, Rylan? Are you going to walk away from o
Alpha Morgan's POV I sat on the cold, damp cell floor, feeling rather sorry since I had been thrown inside here like a criminal. The King was out of his mind. What was he planning to do with me? I had no idea, but the fact that I was chained and forced to eat bread and drink water made me feel sick; I thought about my boys and how they might be feeling right now. I was an alpha, their father, and a role model for my entire pack. How could that be taken away from me so quickly? My poor Luna would be beside herself with worry, no doubt. I could not believe this was happening to me. If my sons had kept their stupid mouths shut and accepted Daniella as their mate, then none of this would have happened, but Rylan just had to keep pushing. I thought back to when we first found Eliza in the woods and took her home. She was a tiny, helpless newborn. My Luna and I had decided not to declare it at first and thought nothing more of it; she was taken care of within our pack, and that
Alpha Morgan’s POV I glared at my Luna, my mind reeling with emotions. How could she do this to me? To our family? To our pack? The thought of Theron, my arch-nemesis, being the true father of my boy, Grayson, was unbearable. I had been there for him since the day that he was born. I thought my family was complete, and I was a father again. "Why?" I demanded, my voice low and menacing. "Why did you keep this from me? Why did you betray me like this?"My Luna's tears fell silently as she spoke, her voice barely above a whisper. "I didn't mean to hurt you, Morgan. I was young and stupid. I didn't know what I was getting myself into."I felt like I'd been punched in the gut again. "You didn't know what you were getting yourself into?" I repeated, my voice incredulous. "You knew exactly what you were doing. You chose to betray me, to deceive me, to destroy our family. You made an oath to be my chosen Luna. We agreed to keep that between us. Did you forget about that?” I growled. The Ki
Chapter One: Just An Omega “Oh, look who it is... Eliza, did you forget to bathe again? I think we can all smell you before we see you, and that’s without the help of our super-strong wolf senses.” Daniella held her nose dramatically and giggled loudly as she closed her locker door and grinned at the crowd, who burst into bouts of laughter. I ignored them, and they always tried to find reasons to tease me. Today wasn’t any better. I was used to it. I should probably explain a bit. My name is Eliza. I am seventeen years of age, and I attend Flintons High School. I am in my last year before college, and I really cannot wait to get out of this hell hole. I will be eighteen soon, and I plan to move as far away as possible. My parents abandoned me as a baby for whatever reason, and trust me when I say I’ve heard all the possible scenarios of what happened. You see, my fellow members of Creek Pack love nothing more than to tell stories
Tomorrow was the day the whole Creek Pack had been preparing for. Daniella’s eighteenth birthday. As the daughter of the Beta. She was of high status, and everything had to be perfect. I had been working hard since getting home from school while everyone else could relax and do whatever they wished. As an omega, that was my duty. “You better not ruin my party.” Daniella glared at me. “Remember, you are just an omega, and I'm the daughter of the alpha-beta. The quads will be all eyes on me when they return from Alpha training tomorrow.” she boasted. I felt a pang of hurt and frustration at Daniella's words. I had worked tirelessly to make her birthday memorable, and her dismissive attitude towards me stung. But I knew better than to let her words get to me. "I would never do anything to ruin your party, Daniella," I replied calmly, trying to keep my emotions in check. "I have put in my best effort to ensure everything is perfect for you. Your happiness is important to me,
