**Crimson's POV**
“Are you insane?” Beta Xavier asked, glaring at me. The elders started murmuring among themselves.
“I'd appreciate it if you speak to me respectfully. I am the Alpha's daughter, soon to be Luna, and I could get you beheaded this instant, so accept your fate and step down from my throne.” My voice was firm and held authority. Something that the past me wouldn't dare to do in a million years.
“What prompted you to say such a thing, my dear?” The eldest among the elders and my personal favorite asked. Elder Blake was the only person who understood my parents and me. After their death, his encouraging words and parental love was the only thing that made me get over them and as a result, I respected him. Also, he wasn't as selfish as the beta and the remaining Elders, who were only after money and not the truth.
“Nothing prompted me, Elder Blake.” I smiled at him.
“Then what is the meaning of this? We all agreed that you'd become Luna after you get married.” Another Elder snapped at me.
“I am ready to take over my father's throne. I'll get married after that.” I replied.
“That's impossible!” One of the elders sprung up. “You're still a child. What in the world do you know about being a ruler?”
“Sit down, Elder Matt!” I ordered.
The elders gasped. Elder Matt looked at me, shocked a bit.
“I wouldn't like to repeat myself again. Sit down now!” I ordered authoritatively, my wolf rising to the surface but I held her in.
When he saw how serious I was, he cleared his throat and sat down. My wolf was an Alpha wolf, just like my parent's, but I haven't been able to use it due to the kind of personality I had. I could compel whoever I wanted into doing what I ordered, after all, I am the heiress to the throne.
“Crimson, go back to your apartment.” Beta Xavier ordered.
“Actually, I'm moving into the palace. It is where I rightfully belong. I don't have the time to argue or batter words with you. You're stepping down from this throne tonight. I'm 18 already, so you have no right to sit down there.” I snickered.
They all stared in shock, wondering where and how I got this courage.
“Beta Xavier, the Alpha did say that you could step down whenever she asked you to. If she thinks she is ready, then she truly is.” Elder Blake sighed.
“What are you talking about, Blake? She is a child and can't rule over us.” Beta Xavier argued.
“A child wouldn't display what she just did. A child doesn't know what rightfully is his or hers. She has come to take what's truly hers, so give it to her.” Elder Blake said.
“Do you want her to rub this pack in the mud?” An elder snapped before turning to face me. “What is your problem? Do you think you could do anything you want because the pack is named after you?” He snapped.
“The pack being named after me isn't the issue here. The issue here is that you all are disrespecting me by arguing over what is rightfully mine.” I snapped.
“Crimson, give us some time to discuss. We will get back to you.” Another Elder said.
“Let's say whatever we want to here. I am going nowhere. Didn't you hear me when I said I'm ascending the throne tonight?” I asked rhetorically.
“Crimson! Stop throwing a tantrum over what you cannot do. You can't rule.” Beta Xavier said.
“I can rule better than you do, Beta Xavier. So, just step down and let me prove you wrong.” I smirked.
“Crimson, you cannot—”
“Don't plead with me, beta Xavier because I won't sit and let you destroy my pack. Now, step down like the good wolf you are,” I smiled and clapped my hands. The maids ran into the throne room. I faced them, “Tonight is my coronation, ladies. I want you all to decorate the palace to my taste. Your beta would be stepping down, while I'll emerge as Luna,” They looked shocked but bowed and ran out to do as I asked.
“Crimso—”
“Guards!” I called and they ran to meet me. “Spread the word. Tell the pack members to be in the palace today that Beta Xavier is stepping down, and I am becoming Luna. Now, hurry. I'm sure my subjects would be dying to see me rule them,” I chuckled.
I turned to look at the elders. Elder Blake smiled at me and I returned it. Beta Xavier and the remaining ideas glared daggers at me and boy, if eyes were bullets, I'd be dead.
Well, I just made fresh enemies, but no backing down now because I'll make them all pay for everything they've done. Most of them duped my father while he was still alive, and Beta Xavier had been embezzling funds and stealing my father's gold for himself ever since he started sitting on the throne. No one is getting spared.
“Wear your best robes, Elders, and get ready for my coronation.” I chuckled again.
*********
“All hail the Luna!” The pack members bowed as Elder Blake placed the golden crown on my head and gave me the Scepter my mother once used. Their cheers became louder when I sat down on the throne.
It wasn't easy making Beta Xavier step down, but I wasn't bothered because I knew there were going to be stumbling blocks when I chose this path and made this decision.
I turned and saw Alexis standing with Damon, looking at me with confused expressions on their faces.
“Don't worry, guys. It'll soon become clear once I start dealing with you.” I muttered under my breath.
“You have to choose your beta now, Luna.” Elder Blake bowed.
“She can't select. I am still the beta of this pack.” Xavier said.
“Not anymore. I'll pick another beta, but not now. There are a few bad eggs I have to clear out first.” When I said that, my eyes locked with that of Tyler and that feeling came again. I had the sudden urge to make him the beta, but waved it over. Come on, I hate this person. I quickly looked away from him.
“Are you impeaching me?” Beta Xavier yelled.
“Don't you dare raise your voice at me, Xavier!” I hit my Scepter on the ground and everyone gasped.
“I am supposed to yell, Crimson. What the fuck do you think you're doing?” He snapped.
I stood up and went to stand in front of him. If he doesn't know how to show respect, I'll teach him.
“I see you still haven't acknowledged that I am the Luna of this pack. Even when the whole pack bowed to me, you stood and did nothing. Now, I'll make you do what is necessary,” I smirked, and he arched his eyebrows in confusion. Everyone watched to see what I'll do.
“Get on your knees and bow to me, Xavier.”
Beta Xavier looked at me and he was so shocked with what he heard. The pack elders were also surprised."Can't you hear me?" I asked with an angry look."Kneel down and bow down to me now!" I yelled."I won't do that" he said, I smiled."You won't do that right?" guards_I was about to get the guards to flog him when I saw him going on his knees slowly.I started smiling when I saw him bowing down to me, I sighed and went to sit on my throne.I know he will get back on me but I don't mind if he can do whatever he wants."You all can leave now I need to get some rest" I said with a smile.I stood up and they all bowed down to me. As I was walking to the door I looked at Alexis and Damon to see their reaction.They both smiled and looked at me, I knew it was fake but I smiled back.I went to my room and it was already arranged for me. I asked the maids to prepare the bathtub I wanted to take.I was not interested in the throne but if I want to take revenge I need power and they will all
Crimson felt so excited within her, the shocked and look on Alexis face means everything to her, maybe she thought she will be the one to be her next beta, well that's so wrong of her.Alexis opened her mouth, same with Tyler and the other members of the pack."Tyler? Crimson...""I know this might come as a surprise to you all, but one thing you should know is that, been a Luna is simply more than you think, Tyler is the only person I can trust right now, so yeah, he is the new beta of this pack, pack elders, please you can crown him as the beta." Crimson announced, her eyes fixed on Alexis."Yes your majesty." The elder replied and Tyler was not able to say anything.Why she did that and for what reason, he can't picture that, she was so mad at him just yesterday then why did she chose him as the beta?So many thoughts on his mind.Crimson walked to him and their eyes met."Congratulations, I trust you will be kind and honest to this pack." Crimson said."Why are you doing this?" He
Episode seven.Alexis returned to her chamber angrily, Damon was waiting for her."Does it works?" Damon asked."You know how Stubborn that girl is, gosh I so much hate crimson." Alexis spat."Well, then we will have to make Tyler bad in her eyes." Damon said."I don't understand." Alexis replied."We will find something bad about him that will prove to crimson he isn't a good person." Damon said."Oh, why didn't I think of this earlier? But what if we can't find anything about him that is bad?" Alexis asked."Then we will create it, but before that, I have to make my relationship stronger with crimson, is time for the men to work." Damon answered."Yes baby, we will break her heart again, forcefully kill her this time and make sure we get everything that she own, I don't know why she has to get all the good things, the fame, the beauty and most of all, the crown, damnit." Alexis yelled with so much hatred."It will soon come to past." Damon said and started kissing her, they fall on t
*Alexis chamber*Damon returned furiously."What happened?" Alexis asked and rushed to him.She saw the blood on his lips."What happened my love who did this to you!" Alexis asked holding him."It's your stupid sister, I don't know why she turned out to hate me so much, and the way she talks in riddles, sometimes I feel that she remembers everything we did to her." Damon answered."I don't think so, she has forgotten."Alexis said."But when she returned, she haven't forgotten to claimed her throne right? Look crimson is still in her right Sense."Damon replied."No she is not, because with the way I and you betrayed her, if she really remembered everything that she won't think twice exposing us in front of everyone and then she will kill us, but look, she is even smiling and talking to me like nothing ever happened, I'm sure Crimson can't remember anything." Alexis said."I think you are right, we will just try harder then, but what she did to you today, I will make sure to make her
Alexis sneaked into crimson's chamber with the poison portion in her hand.Crimson wasn't there so she quickly dip two drop of the portion and run out of the room as she heard crimson and Tyler's voice."I have listened to all the complains, you can approve the budget and make sure it doesn't pass the amount I budgeted, I want to trust you with this." Crimson said as she walked towards her chamber."I'm not greedy so you have nothing to worry, I promise." Tyler replied."Well then okay, I will see you later."Crimson said and he left.Crimson finally arrived at her chamber and sat on the bed, she stared at the juice and picked it up.Alexis entered and crimson dropped the cup."Oh this juice, is really sweet." Alexis said."Oh you can have it." Crimson replied and gave it to her."Noooo!" Alexis yelled.Crimson gave her a suspicious look."Uhm I mean to say this is your drink so you should have it, besides you are the Luna, it will be disrespectful for me to drink from your cup." Alex
"What? Have you made her drink the juice?" Damon asked.Alexis didn't reply, she only sat on the bed furiously."Talk to me baby, what happened?" Damon asked again."Can't you guess? She didn't drink the juice, well she almost did not until that good for nothing Tyler came and pushed the cup on the ground." Alexis ranted."I told you that guy is of no good, now what should we do? Are we gonna just let her go without going through same pain that I went through?" Damon asked."No, go walk up to her and slap her, I hate nonsense, is not my fault that you acted stupid with her, you don't even know how to make a woman love you, I don't even know how I ended up loving you." Alexis yelled."Wow, all this for me huh? If you have done what we planned then she wouldn't be alive now, she sometimes acts like she knows everything that is happening and just seeing us as fools." Damon said.They both kept quiet."You know what? You keep on trying, but that Tyler has to be out of the picture, we must
Tyler was shocked, he couldn't take it.He barged into the court room."Are you crazy, the Luna is it dead and you are already seating on her throne!" Tyler yelled."That's not how you talk to your Luna, because I am the Luna now and you are not the beta anymore, right now if I want, I will throw you out of this place." Alexis said."You are unbelievable." Tyler said and stormed out of the court room.Damon entered and went to whisper something to her."I have added the sleeping pills in her juice, now she will sleep for three more days and we will continue to add it to her while you continue ruling." Damon replied."Yes, and just tomorrow, I will announce you as the new Beta." Alexis said."You are supposed to make me the Alpha not sees rubbish Beta." Damon half yelled."Gosh, that's my problem with you, you lack patience, I can't just make you my Alpha when everyone is expecting me to care for my so called sister, at least be using your brain sometimes, just go, I will meet you late
Alexis waited like forever to hear what crimson have for her because she knows what her smirk is saying."Well, I just ordered for a fertilizer farm to open where animals will be rear there, and whenever they defecate, it is your duty Alexis to store the shits for us and since you are so brave to take over the pack, I'm sure you don't need anyone's help In storing the shits for us." Crimson exclaimed and smirked, her eyes fixed on Alexis, Alexis looked like she will explode."You are kidding right?" Alexis asked."I'm so serious sister, I know you are so excited about your new work and don't worry, you are the Luna of those animals shits from now on, and I expect daily reports on daily basis, oh my God, I'm so proud of you." Crimson answered and hugged her, everyone laughed."And you Coward, you are free to help her out anytime you feel like, coz that's what you deserve and you gonna make a lot of money, lastly, I want to applaud my Beta, today if I am alive and standing in front of y
