One thing I could not and would not allow to happen and that is for Elora to be free from my pack. I promised myself all those years ago that she could never know how strong she would one day be. She ruined that by going off and finding her stupid mate. Luckily for me she came back and fell for my plan to keep her here. There is nothing I wouldn’t do to protect my alpha status. That girl had no idea what she was dealing with. She needed to be kept under control, if she shifted into that wolf then it would be even more difficult to keep my secret. All this because of her pathetic excuse of a mother. If she had not given birth then I would not have wasted so much of my time and energy on keeping quiet. The moon goddess had blessed me with my son, I did not need a daughter out of wedlock. Especially with someone who was just the pack hoare. The day she died was certainly a good day for me. My beautiful Luna would never know about my affair with the hoare. Elora was a mistak

Chapter Thirteen I woke up to the sunshine steaming through the window. I let out a yawn and stretched my tired body out. My arms still ached from all the work from yesterday. I jumped out of the bed and quickly washed then got dressed. I could not afford upset the alpha anymore. I knew full well that if I wasn't up and making breakfast for the pack, then I would be beaten again. I prepared pancakes and helped the other omegas to set up the dining hall. It was almost seven am before we had finally got everything completed. I let out a sigh of relief and felt so pleased with my effort. At least I would be out of trouble for now. I made my way back to the kitchen when I felt someone's presence. Looking up at the door I froze. Then came the smack. Falling to the ground, I shielded myself from his blows. It was pointless to plead and beg for him to stop as that would make him angrier and I would be even more punished. He hated me and wanted me dead. I knew it. Death was very much

I wanted to kill him. How could she be my sister? How could my father cheat on my beautiful mother like she were a worthless hoare? He was lucky I did not kill him there and then. Elora did not deserve to be treated this way all because my father saw her as his dirty little secret. I could not bare to see him hurt my mother or my sister. It felt strange to think I had a sister. Elora. Maya would be crazy when I told her about this. My father did not seem to care one little bit about Elora. He had tried to end her life to keep her quiet over something that was not her fault. It made me question everything my father had ever told me over the years. He wasn’t the man I had looked up to growing up. I was certain I would never be such a selfish alpha when I finally took over the reins. I was determined that my pack would be treated fairly no matter their rank status. My father was so drunk he could barely get up. I ordered some of the warriors to take him inside and put him to bed wh

As I stormed out of the room, my anger and frustration were boiling over. How could my son, my own flesh and blood, dare to challenge me like that? And Elora, she was a constant reminder of my infidelity, a mistake I couldn't overlook. The thought of her being in my pack, in my territory, made my blood boil.I needed to clear my head, to let go of all the pent-up rage and disappointment. I sprinted through the woods, my paws pounding against the forest floor. The wind rushed through my fur, cooling the fire burning inside me. My wolf howled in exhilaration, relishing the freedom of the run.But, even in the midst of the adrenaline-fueled sprint, I couldn't escape the consequences of my actions. Images of Elora's tear-stained face flashed before my eyes, and guilt started to creep in. How could I be so heartless to her? She was innocent, a victim of my mistakes. The weight of my responsibilities as an alpha felt heavy on my shoulders.As I slowed down, the anger began to dissipate, repl
