PROLOGUE
The crowd was disorganized. The procession in which the Alpha King was expected to take part was eagerly awaited by many.
I observed the approaching car and stood up straight. I'm only doing this mission to monitor him. I was chosen to this position by the Royal Council a year ago. It could be exhausting to follow the cold monarch.
I shifted my black cap as I scanned the area. I raised one side of my mouth when I saw that the King of Wolves had only waved once. Women were frantically calling his name in an effort to get his attention. However, a person I was observing over here claims that I have never seen him with a woman.
He was rather appealing. He was the kind of person who would stick out in a crowd thanks to his appearance. He was the kind of guy that would make women swoon. Even though he was gorgeous, looks can be deceiving.
He is heartless. Those who disobeyed him were subjected to severe punishment. Nothing was going to prevent your alpha from giving his instructions. Nothing could challenge it or dismantle it. No one could ever disobey the unbreakable order. If anyone rebelled, they would die for their defiance.
He engaged in combat, killed people, and lost his cool. Despite having seen him go through those several phases, he continued to be a mystery to me, just as I am to him. Behind the mask he's wearing, I don't know who he really is.
As soon as his car passed, I sped out to the west. I noticed a pair of eyes staring at me as I was moving more quickly through the woods. I instantly tightened my fists as anger tickled my throat. My eyes were filled with rage as my speed increased. I heightened my senses as I observed the shadow enter the forest belonging to the Metaphor Pack.
Our moves were accompanied by the wind's ferocity. He disappeared from view in a moment, and I couldn't help but sneer. Sadly for him, I'm not your typical werewolf. The Royal Council instructed me on how to protect the Royal Family against werewolves. The other two protectors in this mission, Emelyn and Stella, are here with me.
As quickly as I could, I leaped between the trees. I quickly pinned him to the ground by grabbing hold of his arms and twisting them.
When I eventually caught up with him, he said, "Fuck!" He made an attempt to run away from me, but I was strong enough to stop him.
The question "Who exactly are you?" I asked, gritting my teeth. He did not, though, and he persisted in his opposition. I questioned, "Who are you? " "What on earth are you doing following the Alpha King?"
He chuckled ironically. "Young lady, you won't be receiving anything from me."
"Please tell me! "Don't make things difficult for both of us. I yelled at him angrily.
He scowled and his lips was shut. Although everything were happening swiftly, I was about to present him to you. Arrows flew in my direction at a dizzying speed. Fortunately, I was quick enough to escape it, but as soon as I had him in my grip, he got free and began running once more. When the arrows began to fling themselves at me, I was about to follow him.
"Gosh!" I swore when he was completely out of view. I walked in my black boots after realizing I was too far from town.
I'm going to need a vacation after this!
I sighed loudly and started walking away. The number of adversaries trying to overthrow the King of Wolves is increasing, so I still need to keep a tight check on him.
Deimos in green Demigod Alexander. I pledged to safeguard the King as part of my duties. a man with a lot of hidden secrets. I frequently ponder why he is single. I was dumped and betrayed, is he like me? Does he also find it difficult to forgive and accept his fate?
I came to a complete stop when my heart began to hurt. I crouched on the grass and winced as the pain increased. The cries continued, but my head sunk on its own. My body was on fire, and my heart was being stabbed. Painful anguish was experienced. It was excruciating. I grinned bitterly. I am conscious of my feelings.
He is back at it.
The Moon Goddess gave us werewolves as our soulmates because she wanted us to be happy. Rejection is a phenomenon, though, where your partner may reject you if they don't feel the same way. The rejected wolf would be even more upset than they are. Your link will break, making it impossible for you to perceive or understand their thoughts.
But if you don't want to be rejected, you'll experience bond betrayal and heat anguish. You will experience discomfort each time someone else is with him and performing actions that you should be performing.
I keep thinking to myself, "Am I not enough?" They don't need to defend me since I'm not a damsel in need. I am familiar with fighting. But what is the true problem? Why does it seem that nothing ever goes well for me?
When will it really end?
I knelt down and sobbed because I was in so much pain. That which was worse than agony destroyed me. It gave me a bone-chilling pain.
"Argh!"
My legs trembled beneath me, and I was unsure of how I was managing to stand. My heart prematurely ceased beating as my breathing became labored.
My eyes were dry, but I thought I could hear my wolf begging. My heart was wailing in misery as my inner beast screamed. Hearing Ruby's voice again surprised me because it had been a while since I had spoken to my wolf since Phoenix had rejected me as his mate.
"How much longer will we have to put up with this, Chandra?"
I tightened my eyelashes and smirked venomously. I clenched my chest in an effort to stop the pain. Hopefully, it won't hurt as bad. It was a failure.
Do you want to be like this all the time?" I said. "Are you exhausted yet?"
I said, "Ruby, I'm not sure." I'm worried that my strength has left me.
Chandra, enough already. Permit him to go. I am aware that you have loved him for a very long time, but he values his ability to control you highly. Why can't you just accept it and wait for another opportunity?
I interrupted her by giggling heartily. What is a second chance for? The question "To fall in love?"
Isn't it preferable to have hope than to remain trapped in this suffering?
"Ruby, am I being ungrateful?" mainly because I am hurting you. "Are you worn out?"
"Yes…"
Her comment made my chest feel heavy. I am aware even if I don't ask. Ruby was worn out, and I didn't want to let her suffer for my gain.
I sat still for a while with my eyes wet and my breathing choppy. I let out a shaky breath after widening my eyes. I looked up at the sky. I could see the big moon because it was dark earlier. It was bright, and it seemed like someone was saying something I couldn't understand.
As I gazed at it, I was unable to control the tears that were streaming down my cheeks. The only sound I could hear when I lay down on the soft grass was crickets.
Do I have to put him behind me?
If he wasn't meant for me, why on earth would the Moon Goddess bring him to me? I screamed at the top of my lungs.
What happened to me to make this happen?
I am a strong, courageous, and diligent woman. I was well-trained, and I had a duty to protect the Alpha, therefore no one could ever defeat me in a fight. But why can that silly love bring me to my knees and break down in tears?
"There are a variety of reasons why this happened, Chandra. Ruby said with a playful smile on her lips, "You just have to look ahead and not back."
My inner wolf is a rather smart one. The Goddess had sent her. I've experienced being unloved, and Ruby has helped me get over it. She had supported me, so I knew what I needed to do, and I want to return the favor.
The next candidate to lead the flock as its alpha is Phoenix Demigod. I felt feelings for him before the mating call and before we were supposed to be partners. He, on the other hand, decided to be in charge of me, his true mate. What about her did he see in me that he didn't see in me? Did her alpha blood give his babies more strength?
Whatever it was, our relationship shook. I again closed my eyes and heaved a sad sigh. I began to feel the brisk air encircling me as I mumbled the words that, I knew, would instantly change everything.
We no longer share a bond going forward, and I, Chandra Parker, accept my mate Phoenix Demigod's rejection and I welcome it entirely.
After those chants, I felt as though our connection had broken down and that my feelings had relaxed. I was at ease at last.
After that, everything went completely dark, and I had no idea what had happened.
