Donna's POVI widened my eyes in shock at the trick of the Moon goddess. What was the fucking meaning of this? I was so angry that I refused to utter the word that I was supposed to.My eyes darted to where Alpha Brown was and I saw a sight that got my heart crashing into pieces. This can't be true! Maybe I should close my eyes again!I closed my eyes and opened it, but it was still the same thing! I was totally broken and angry. How could the moon goddess do this to me?How could she mate Alpha Jace Brown to Sophia? How could she disappoint me! All my longings were in vain. And to punish me further, she paired me with the lowly Gamma!How could she pair me with such ugly thing? I don't want anyone but the alpha! I was so enraged that I left the village square without waiting for the other entertainment.I cried in the house for more than a week. My parents had to force me to eat, but I refused. I knew it wouldn't make any difference, but I was hoping to see a miracle. On a particula
DONNA'S POVWhen the drunk woman looked up, she saw a man brutally breaking the bones of those thugs that wanted to take advantage of her. Although she was drunk, somehow, she trusted the man. She felt safe and calm within.Donna watched as the man broke the arms of each and every one of them before they quickly fled from him. Her beautiful eyes looking at him as a hero. Drawing closer to him, she noticed the face was a little blurry but still smiled broadly at him. Clasping his arms, Donna drew him closer to herself."You…are…very strong! You beat up…all those stupid…foolish people! Come, I will reward you…" Donna told him, bringing him closer for a kiss.Knowing that she was drunk, he gently evaded her touch. He didn't want her to misunderstand him. But Donna wasn't happy to be rejected. She was so pissed off by his behavior."Hey! Don't you like…me? I thought you wanted me as your mate? Why are you avoiding now? Ha! You don't love me too?" Donna said, slurring in her words. "It's
DONNA'S POVI was married off to a mate I hated. My tears and cries fell on my father's deaf ears. He would never let his reputation be ruined by my foolishness. I knew that was the beginning of my misery. Living with Magnus had remained my worst nightmare. I never imagined that one reckless night would lead me to a loveless marriage. All I wanted that day was to drink and forget my sorrows, but it seemed I brought triple sorrow into my life. Just one mistake and my life turned around.After that morning I accused him of forcing himself on me, I slowly remembered all the things I had said to him. And how I forced myself on him.But still I was angry. I was angry that he accepted. He should have controlled himself. He should have stopped me no matter what, but now I had to carry this shame of his for months. And live the rest of my life with him.After my father found out, he wasted no time in marrying me off to Miko Magnus. I was filled with shame and humiliation. How could the dau
KOKO'S POVI watched as my so-called mate and my mother insulted me. They berated me before everyone, not caring about my feelings. Not caring if I was guilty or not.I have feelings too. They could have at least asked what happened to me even if they believed it was a lie. They could have confirmed if I was telling the truth but no, they already condemned me the moment Hanola lost her life.I do blame myself for not being able to save her, but have they asked themselves if they were being sincere towards me.I am also a breathing person. Giving my heart out to her would cost my life too. I would also be dead too. But of course, my death would have been celebrated by them. They would have been happy and wiped every memory of me out of their perfect world.Could I be more unfortunate? Could I have been less ill-fated than this? All my life I had lived under curses and beatings, but I have learnt to endure it all.Should I also endure the insults and beatings because the heavens decided
Koko's POVAs I laid patiently waiting for the verdict from Gad, I blocked myself from all their noises. I didn't want to hear anything. I wanted to die listening to my inner self.I looked at my mother. She threw a glare at me as if she would kill me instantly. I wondered why she would hate me to that extent. What did I really do to deserve their hatred?"Mother…." I whispered softly.I just wish I could hear her call me her child just this once. I would gladly accept the death that was coming my way. But all I received was an intense hateful glare.What was my crime? Was it just because I was ugly? Why would a woman hate her child so much?As I was deep in thought, drowning in my own sorrows, I felt strong hands holding me up roughly. I looked up to see two stern looking guards holding me up.Was it time for my execution? Was he that impatient to clear me out of the world? I accepted my fate and did not struggle with the guards or even say anything."Miss Koko Magnus. For conspiring
NIYOL'S POVIt had been two years since I lost my mate, Erika. It still felt like a dream though, but I learnt to live past the grief.The only thing left was regrets. I regretted not spending enough time with her, causing her pain and making her shed tears the days I made her my wife. I regretted leaving that morning. I regretted everything that I should have done for her but couldn't. I regretted letting them hurt her. I should have banished them or gave strict examples. They would have stopped and she would have been happy.She wouldn't have contemplated suicide if she were happy, right? But I didn't do anything. I believed her lies that she was okay.I walked slowly towards her resting place. I fought with the Elders so I could lay her to rest. I couldn't bear to throw her away. I loved her even through her errors. I made them understand they drove her into committing suicide.I blamed, Cursed, Shouted at, and growled at them. All of them were to blame for her death. If they had
Alpha NiyolI woke up rather late, this morning. I didn't know why, but seeing Laci last night lifted my spirits. I felt alive and… a little happy. Though I was literally trying to live happily.I received a mind-link from my Beta that he was waiting for me in the throne room. I almost forgot I asked to see him this morning.I quickly freshen up and put on hunting apparel. I mind-linked him to meet me up close to the border where I usually go hunting."Are you going alone? What about the guards?" My beta asked through the mindlink."Chester, what do you mean by alone? Aren't you my beta? What is the use of having to rely on others to protect me?" I threw the words at him."I am sorry Alpha, but your safety is of utmost importance. Please allow me to place some guards around. They won't have to show themselves. Even though the war had subsided a lot, there is still need for caution." Chester replied.Well, I had no way to argue with him. Even if I did, he would still put them secretly
Koko's POVI felt huge sweat dropping from my forehead. I tried opening my eyes, but I felt my body aching. It seemed I was lying on a wooden bed. No wonder my body was aching seriously.I struggled to get up from the bed with difficulty and agony. When I looked around I noticed I was in a room. It was a dimly lit room with simple artistic designs.Where was I?I was filled with so many questions, but no one to answer me. I got off the bed and tried walking around to check if I would see anyone.When I came out, I was surprised to see that I was surrounded by trees and shrubs. The house or rather hut was in the middle of the forest. Where was I? How did I get here? Who brought me here and where were the people chasing me? These questions kept bothering me."Are you awake, little cupcake?" I turned around to see a young looking boy at my back. My heart almost jumped out of my chest. I patted myself as I breathed in and out."My gosh! You scared the daylight out of me." I managed to s
