CHAPTER 05: All For 'Her'

MILENA WASN'T able to process when Alpha Angelov said that. But then as soon as it registered in her mind, it was as if all her dreams suddenly crumbled down.

'Pretend to be my Luna.'

She's not that stupid to not get it. He wanted everything to be just a show. He wanted to fake everything.

So, everything that he said in front of the wolves in the Stormhowl pack was just a bluff. But then... he's kissing her right now!

Alpha Angelov conquered his lips as if he's branding her as his, coaxing her mouth with his sinful tongue. It was damn addicting. But as much as Milena wanted to enjoy the kiss, she wanted to clear things up and doesn't want to be confused.

"W-Wait!" She said when her lips were withdrawn for a moment from the kiss while breathing heavily. She suddenly felt bad that she did that since Alpha Angelov's lips really taste like heaven, but it might lead to something worldly. And she's sure to herself that she's still not ready for that.

"What the fuck?" His brows met as if he's mad at what she did. It was as if he's about to lash out.

"What do you mean by that, Alpha? W-We're going to pretend?" She asked as she gulped.

He rolled his eyes as if he just heard something that he shouldn't hear. "Yes. You got a problem with that?"

"U-Uhh... none?" Stupid! That's what she screamed to herself in her head. Milena couldn't believe herself, too. She couldn't compose the right words to say anymore because her mind is still with the mind-blowing kiss!

"You sounded so unsure. Anyway, let me just clear things up first. Well, what you heard was right. I wanted you to pretend to be my Luna," he said as if he's already losing his patience. "That means your body will be exclusively mine as well."

Milena's brows furrowed as she blushed profusely. Her body. She knew what he meant by that.

"B-But... Why me?"

His expression instantly hardened. "I do not want you to question my decision again. I just want your answer. Do you agree or not?"

She shivered instantly with that as she felt his alpha aura. His tone was dominating as if she was given no choice at all. She gulped as her hand balled and tightened on the fabric of her cloth. She wasn't able to talk after that as she decided whether she would agree or not. Alpha Angelov noticed the hesitation in her, that's why he continued talking.

"Well, I'm gonna help you decide." Alpha Angelov smirked as a sudden dark idea came across his mind. "If you agree to pretend to be my Luna, I'll grant whatever your wish is. You know I could easily do that."

"A-And if I won't agree?"

He smirked menacingly as he caressed his cheek gently with the back of his palm. "Then I have no other choice but to kill you to avoid complications in the future."

A gasp escaped from Milena's lips upon hearing him say that. Although her life has not been really easy for her, she's sure to herself that she's still not ready to die!

But then... he said he will also grant whatever her wish is...

Milena instantly thought about the Frostflow pack that has been absorbed by the Stormhowl pack years ago, the pack that has been established by her bloodline and was once managed by her parents. The wolves there are already having so much trouble because they became slaves of the Stormhowl pack. And she wants to free them...

"Don't make me wait with your decision," Alpha Angelov said, which got Milena's attention from her own thoughts.

She bit her lower lip before finally talking. "I have made my decision."

"Good. Do you agree or not?"

"I-I agree, Alpha. But in return... Please, free the wolves from the Frostflow pack that has been absorbed by the Stormhowl pack. Please give them the rights to live however they want because they have been through so much. I... I cannot bear to see them having a hard time again."

His brows furrowed. "Frostflow pack? The weak pack from the west before?"

"Y-Yes."

Alpha Angelov thought for a moment before finally nodding his head. "I'll pull some strings about it. But don't you ever forget what I said. You're still gonna pretend to be my Luna."

"I won't forget about that, Alpha," Milena answered with a small smile on her lips. "I won't..."

MILENA WASN'T sure anymore if this is just all a dream. After her talk with Alpha Angelov, four maids suddenly went to her and helped her get changed... into a wedding gown!

She's really getting married now! But only for a show. However, despite the idea that everything is fake, she can't still avoid being happy because finally, she'll be walking down the aisle to reach the man of her dreams.

The wedding gown was simple. It's a white off shoulder gown that exposed an ample amount of her chest. Her hair is twisted in a bun and some strands are styled to fall on the side of her forehead. Her make-up was just simple and light but she felt so pretty right now that she couldn't help but to blush as she looked at her face in front of the mirror.

"You're so pretty, Luna..." One of the maids said, smiling when everything was done.

"T-Thank you," Milena said shyly and also smiled.

And what she couldn't really believe is they had been calling her Luna since earlier! It's really happening! She will be Alpha Angelov's bride and Luna!

Milena was nervous for the next few minutes especially when the maids went out to leave her alone for a while. She was instructed to wait for the go signal until she's finally allowed to get out. So, all that Milena could do inside the room was to sigh deeply to ease the nervousness she's feeling right now.

While Milena was staring at her reflection in the mirror, she suddenly heard a familiar voice outside. Milena curiously stood up from her seat and went closer towards the door. Her brows furrowed when she recognized the man's voice.

It was Alpha Angelov's voice! And he's talking to a woman outside.

Curiously, Milena listened attentively to what the two were talking about.

"Are you really sure with this, Alpha?"

"Of course. Don't fucking tell me, you're questioning my decision?"

"N-No. It's just that... what about 'her'?"

Milena heard Alpha Angelov chuckled dangerously.

"I never once forget about her."

"B-But... she might get devastated once she finds out that you're married."

"She will hate me at first but what I'm doing is all for her. I'm just using that peasant so I can achieve more power."

The woman gasped. "You mean..."

"Yeah, you're right. I'll fully conquer my father's throne after that and then voila... everything and everyone will be under my mercy."

Milena took a step backward unconsciously upon hearing that. She trembled, not because of nervousness but with the fact that Alpha Angelov is just using her!

She couldn't help but to think about it.

"Who's... 'her'?" Milena whispered to herself as jealousy suddenly kicked in her system, making her chest ache.

That 'her' that they're pertaining to must be so important to Alpha Angelov.

He's willing to do everything for 'her' even the most cruel thing in the world.
