Elisa's POV: Flashbacks "Father, when I grow up, I want to be like you, father. I want to lead the pack and do everything you do to keep the pack in order," I told my alpha father with determination. At just eight years old, I was already planting the seeds of leadership in my mind. My father smiled, ruffling my hair gently, which made me snort. "I see a future female Alpha in you, my daughter. I know you will be able to lead the whole pack." I smiled sweetly and tenderly hugged my father. "Really, father?" I asked eagerly. "When will the pack transfer the throne to me, father? When will the moon goddess allow me to become a full Female Alpha?" My innocent excitement filled my voice. He chuckled softly. "On your eighteenth birthday, sweetheart. That's when you will rule the pack." I could see the sparkle in his eyes as the moonlight cast its glow upon us. I had longed to be an alpha like my father, and it seemed that my dream was only a few years away. Under the bright moon and in
LUCIAN I bent down to avoid the punch attack made by Mathew, my beta and my sparring partner. When I bent down, I slightly turned around to kick Mathew’s stomach hard, but he did not expect the attack I made so he backed away due to the force of the kick I gave on the left side of his abdomen. The corner of his lips rose as he walked towards me. "You're getting better, Alpha.” I looked at him blankly before walking to where my bottle of water was. "It's not enough Mat,” I said with a bleak tone. My gaze darted to my pack fighters who were also in the training ground. It's been a few months since their pack was attacked by the Blue moon Pack led by Alpha Shan and his wife Luna Meryl, I doesn't know if I was lucky when I was a child because I ended up in a pack where a friend of my parents is the leader because usually in packs there are fights because of lands or other things so if you behave in their land ownership, death will be imposed on you or you will be imprisoned in the dun
ELISA "What? What's going on there, Elisa?" Lucians question sent fear coursing through me, making my knees tremble. I hastily got up, intending to retreat to the room I had come from earlier, a decision I now wished I hadn't made. But before I could get far, a strong arm wrapped around me, pulling me closer to a towering figure. "Oops, now stay calm, little one. We aren't going to hurt you," the large man assured me, his warm smile still on display. I turned my head away, overwhelmed by the situation. The pressure was suffocating, worsening the ache in my head. "L-let go of me..." I stammered weakly, but his grip on me only tightened. I attempted to free myself, but it was like trying to move a mountain. It was impossible. I sighed in defeat. "Wow! Seriously, what are you doing?" I flinched when a shout rang out, and I snapped out of my fearful trance. Depression settled in as I realized that the Cabrera family had always been known for their benevolence, never resorting to cr
My lips parted slowly as I looked at the former Luna of first district pack, Lucian's mother. What she said caught me by surprise.What?I close my mouth, swallowing the lump in my throat, before opening it again to finally speak.Because there's just no way that the person they've been talking about all this morning was me. Why me? I can't accept the fact that an important bond and marriage to a couple will be ruined just because of me. Just because of your arrival!Luna Esther looked away from me for a while, before letting out an exasperated sigh and massaging the bridge of her nose.She was immediately attended to by her husband who was next to her and calming her down. I looked away and started fiddling with my fingers.How dare I? Causing trouble for everyone...how dare I?"Eugene." My eyes automatically went back to Luna Esther when she called my name. His face was serious so I was a little nervous."Y-yes?""You are right, dear. The plan we came up with may not be right. But th
It's noon and I'm here now in the big kitchen of the mansion, where some maids are already preparing meals. And of course, since I'm not used to just fooling around all day, I also helped with the preparations. And because of that I also met the head maid of the mansion. Mrs. Smith. She's so kindhearted and a warm-hearted elderly woman. I like her already and I'm happy that I got along with her in just a short time. Because honestly, I'm not that comfortable about living here yet. For our lunch, we cooked fried chicken and grilled liempo because that's what Luna Marion wanted. And by the time we finished, I also helped serve the table. Actually, while I was helping and doing those things with the other maids, I could feel their gazes on me. And I also found out that the only omegas inside this mansion are me and Luna Marion. All of the housemaids are betas. Even Mrs. Smith is a beta herself. But that's not what bothers me the most. Just like I said, the other maids kept on glanci
When we finished in the garden, I immediately showered and cleaned my body. We ate breakfast and since I didn't have anyone else at the dining table, I just ate in the back of the kitchen with Anna. Because of that, I feel that the other housemaids feel a little better towards me. And it's so fun and feels good. After we put away the food, I have nothing else to do. So I just thought to go to my room and open the cell phone that Desmond gave me. And while on top of my bed, I started digging into my new gear. Before the cellphone, I just noticed that the top seal of the box was already open. I wasn't wrong in suspecting that someone had opened it, because when I saw the cellphone it had tempered glass and a white case. I smiled and immediately opened the gadget. This is my first time having my own cellphone, but I know how to use it and how it works because I've been playing with my parents' cellphone whenever I'm bored before. At first I often had a friend to text with. But when
Elisa's POV: My eyes snapped open, fear and sadness coursing through me. I gasped for breath, my chest heaving as tears streamed down my face. A small whimper escaped my lips as I curled into a ball on the bed. I had seen it again. The nightmare that haunted me, night after night. My parents, engulfed in flames, crawling toward me, calling my name as they burned. I watched, unable to move, unable to save them. I wanted to reach out to them, to feel their pain, to be with them in their final moments, but just as they were about to touch me, darkness engulfed everything. I knew it was a dream, a recurring torment, but that didn't make it any less terrifying. The fear and sadness overwhelmed me, and I trembled uncontrollably. I wrapped my arms around myself, trying to find some comfort, but there was none to be had. I didn't want to experience that nightmare again, to see my parents in agony. I didn't want to relive that moment. The emotions consumed me, and I felt myself shifting i
The wedding went faster than I thought. It feels like I just blinked and then it's already over. It's just like I went to a simple party, or I really just don't feel like a wedding so I'm just saying this? Maybe both. Well, whatever. I just hope I look normal in some of the pictures they took of us. Normal? I wish. I was so nervous that I almost froze because of the other stares that people gave me. I feel like they are studying me well. I don't even have time to breathe. I can almost taste their disdain. They couldn't accept that Alpha Rowan married a nobody like me. For all they know it's all for a show. I tiredly sat on my bed with a sigh. It is evening and the sun has set. There was a bit of partying outside earlier, but now it's probably just Geno and Davina. Tito and Tita just returned home. I, this, have just changed clothes. Desmond and Luna Marion...yes, they are already in their room. Just got in too. Speaking of Luna Marion, I didn't see her around at the wedding cere
