Author's POV"But you didn't kill me," Alexa said to Logan, who looked into her beautiful eyes. He didn't because he couldn't. He couldn't bring himself to kill his mate. Someone so innocent and kind, who knew nothing of the wrongs her father had done. Someone who suffered at the mercy of her father also. He could not. "Walk with me," he stretched out his hand for her to take. Alexa looked at it as she wondered how they became this way, but she reached for it anyways.They began to walk along the lake's edge as they spoke. "Your father must have been so close to you and your brother to always bring you both here." Logan nodded slightly, "Yes, father was nice and sweet. He was a good father. He was tough yet tender towards us, and it made us wish to be like him when we grew up. He was a great role model to follow."Alexa hummed as she bobbed her head up and down softly, but she didn't say a word. Logan's smile left his face when he guessed what she might be thinking. He was not sur
Author's POV…Alexa sighed before releasing her hands from him, keeping her hands to herself. They were not meant to be, not in this lifetime.Doctor Eva's words surely meant that there would be trouble if she kept getting close to Alpha Logan. The pack members and elders resent her; they want her dead, and getting close to Alpha Logan would only make them angrier.If they can just give her a chance to prove that she's the complete opposite of her father. She was also a victim of her father's wickedness; she never partnered with him. But would they ever believe her? She wouldn't blame them; her father caused them pain, so they wanted revenge. Alexa wished she was never the daughter of her father; she won't have passed through all this. But what can she do? She has to face reality and bear them all; she can only keep enduring and swallowing, hoping that things will get better one day. It will be hard for her if she distances herself from Alpha Logan, but even still, how can she do
Logan's POV...I sat there in a daze, my heart tightened, and my grip on the horse's reigns pulled. I kept hearing the words Alexa had just said in my head again and again. Kara did what exactly?I turned to look at Alexa's face; she had fright written all over her. The way she let it all out at once made me even wonder.Knowing this is about Kara, and the person she was referring to was my fiancee, wasn't she supposed to say it gradually?Well, she must be scared. No wonder she had decided not to tell me about it right from time.So Kara was sleeping around. The question that kept bothering my heart since Alexa told me the truth was, what did I not do for Kara?I cared for her, gave her everything, and covered her flaws and faults. I gave her power she wasn't even supposed to be bestowed with until she became Luna. And all she could repay me with was to sleep with one of my guards?!Did I not train her well enough that she was sl
Alexa's POV... "Kara is responsible for everything that has been happening to me. She had always been bullying, hurting and threatening me. I was too scared to speak out, so I kept lying to cover up her mischief. I also recently caught Kara sleeping with one of the guards; she decided to kill me so her secret won't get out. I survived getting stabbed, but she didn't stop there. She also sent the maid to poison me with wolfsbane while I was unconscious, but it wasn't successful. When you also came to take me out for horse riding, Kara almost stabbed me with a short rod, but Simon and Selena intervened. That was why it looked awkward when you walked in at that moment. I swear with my life, I am telling you the truth. Believe me." I said it all in a go with my eyes closed.My conscience was killing me. I didn't know if Alpha Logan would believe me or not, but I couldn't keep it in any longer, not with Kim constantly reminding me of Selena and Beta Simon's words. When I was done, I hel
Logan's POVThe door flung open as I barged into my room in anger. I have been trying to hold it in since she said those words to me. The words kept echoing in my ears, especially the part where she said she saw a guard with Kara. My fiancée was sleeping with a guard; she was cheating on me. I pulled off my shoes and socks before heading to the bathroom to wash my hands. When I came out, I yelled from inside. "Get me beta Simon!" I knew some of the guards must have heard me scream that.I began to take off my clothes as I waited for Simon. It didn't take long before he knocked. "Come in," I said in a cold voice, and the door opened. "Good evening, my lord. How was your outing?" I wanted to cut his head off when he asked me that. "Why didn't you tell me about Kara trying to kill Alexa? You knew, yet you kept it a secret from me," I didn't want to get angry and yell at him.After all, I was the one who was blind not to see all of Kara's evildoings. "I did warn you," Simon rep
Alexa's POV...I paced around my room because I couldn't stop worrying. What information would Beta Simon bring to me? What would Alpha Logan do?I went into the bathroom to take my bath, but I didn't know why it bothered me so much. Will Alpha Logan go to Kara and tell her?He had said I did right by letting him know, but this was his fiancee. Kara could easily deny it and make up some story putting me into greater trouble. Besides, the way Alpha Logan kept quiet after I told him it was suspicious. It was enough for me to think that he did not believe me.I finished bathing and went to lie down, but I still wasn't comfortable. I kept tossing and turning until I gave up sleep and went to find Selena. She is the only one that can calm my racing heart after all; she was one of those who kept asking me to tell Alpha Logan the truth. I made my way out of the room, searching for Selena, only to find her dressing in her bed."Pss!"She turned to see me pop my head into her room. "What's
Logan's POV…***THE NEXT MORNING***I slipped on my robe and combed my roughened hair. I checked myself in a mirror, ensuring I was looking okay and ready for the meeting with the elders. I touched my eyes and noticed there were dark circles around them. I couldn't sleep a wink throughout last night. I kept thinking about Alexa's confession yesterday, and I still cannot recover from the shock. I can't believe I have been fooled for years. Who knows how long Kara has been secretly sleeping with my guards? How could she be so shameless? How could I be blinded by her pretentious attitude? I never for once in my whole life imagined that Kara would turn out this way.How could she stoop so low? How could she betray me like this? Right under my roof? Right under my nose? I must have been so foolish! Those stupid guards who had an affair with Kara would hear from me; I would teach them the most painful lesson of their lives.So, have I been sharing my woman with my guards? An Alpha has
Author's POV…"You should relax, Alexa. I am sure Alpha Logan is handling everything, so you have no reason to be scared."Alexa has been restless since last night; she hasn't heard anything from either Alpha Logan or Simon. It got her really worried. Alpha Logan's silence makes her think he will cover up for Kara like he has been doing for years. She began regretting confessing to Alpha Logan, Simon and even Selena. She should have just kept her mouth shut and acted like nothing ever happened.If she had not told Selena or Simon, they wouldn't have pressured her to tell the truth to Alpha Logan.But apart from that, smart Selena already figured out the truth, so hiding it from her is pointless.Now she knows why Kara is confident in carrying out her evil doings; it's because Alpha Logan would surely stand up for her and cover her dirty acts."You won't just understand, Selena. If you were in my shoes, you would also be scared as I am. After I confessed to Alpha Logan, I expected
