“Yet you’re marrying another!” I exclaim, ” Am I not good enough for you? Is it because I’m only a werewolf and not a Lycan?”
“No, baby, Alaiah is just-” He is interrupted before he finishes his sentence
“His future wife and Queen, together we will make the Lycan nation great,” She has smugness on her face and she crosses her arms against her chest, looking at me like dirt beneath her shoes
“Alaia,” The king warns but she takes a step forward,
“So you are the rankless mate of his, I’ve heard the rumors, you are indeed a nobody. You should leave and never come back, for Leondre to keep his status as powerful as it is, he will need a Queen with wealth, and a strong pack to back him which a riffraff wolf like you can’t offer,” The bitch hollers, I gasp as Leon chokes the life out of her.
“Shut the fuck up, Alaiah,” He grits. The woman is struggling to breathe against Leon’s strong grip and the color is leaving her face now. He throws her against the wall and comes to me.
“My love, don’t listen to a word she said,”
I know very well that he needs strong connections for him to be at the top and I can’t offer any of that. I cry harder at the fantasy I had that he could love me and accept me as I was, I didn’t have a pack and more importantly, I don’t have wealthy parents.
“Don’t fucking touch, stay away from me, please,” I spat, he shakes his head and pulls me into an embrace, apologizing for hurting me but I don’t hug him back.
With all my strength, I push him back and with an inhumane speed I didn’t know I had, I grab Mutinta’s hand and run from there. We are in an unknown location but it’s somewhere in the city of the Lycans.
“How?” I stutter, we are in the middle of a busy street.
“You, omg… Did you just teleport us here?” Asks Mutinta in wander. Suddenly my mind opens up to so many people, voices I recognize and others I don’t are flooding my mind.
‘Find her, she couldn’t have gone far,” That is Leondre’s voice. I can hear the panic in his voice and others that I don’t know, I close my ears with my palms, trying to shut out the voices but they are getting louder.
“Oh, my Moon Goddess! You’re a wolf with special powers, but they are only two people in the realm who can teleport. Alyssa, it can only mean you’re a white wolf!” I hear Mutinta’s excited voice as darkness envelopes me fully.
Leondre’s POV
I am an idiot, a fool is what I am. My mate saw me and she knows I have betrayed her. The look she gave me was that of shock and hurt, it broke me to see her like that. My sister and Dan followed me outside where I sat after she ran from the lobby at lightning speed, I had no strength in me to chase after her. My wolf was growling, he warned me many times to cancel this damn engagement but I did not listen to him.
‘We have now lost our mate because of you, I’ll never forgive you,’ He growls. I’ll never forgive myself either.
My sister kneels next to me and cups my face, she embraces me and I hold her close. Arya was also against this union but I had no choice, with Lycan packs allying, I also need to do the same but I regret hiding this from my mate, I should have told her that the northerners are attacking and recruiting more Lycans to their side.
Jake and Angela come into the lobby, both looking worried and I glare at them, making the duo retreat involuntarily. They should have been watching her!
“Why were you not with my mate?” I growl at them.
“We- we are sorry sir. Allie was working in another part of the city, we didn’t know that they would send her to work here,” The female explains with tears in her eyes. My eyes sway to the gamma who is in charge of Allie’s protection.
“Why did you leave her alone?” I question,
“I’m sorry, King, but I had errands to run at the company and-” Before he finishes talking, I have him against the wall, choking him. He prioritized work over protecting my Luna, his queen!
“Leon, Leon let him go,” A growl resonates that makes the earth vibrate. I release Jake and turn around to face my father. He is seething in anger and so is my mom, oh fuck.
“How can you betray your mate like that?” Mom growls, her eyes are bloodshot. I sigh and order Jake to find her.
‘My Luna is missing, find her,’ I command all the warriors through the mind link.
‘Yes, my King,’ They answer.
I direct my parents to a more private area, and explain to them what has been happening while they are away, they were disappointed in me and my mother can’t stop scolding me.
“We will find a way to beat the Northern pack but you marrying that brat Alaiah Martin is out of the topic, we shall cancel the arrangement and I’ll write an email to my former Lycan pack to ally, along with their allies,” My mother says and Dad agrees. No one in my pack likes the sunrise Lycans as they are too pompous and full of themselves.
“Thank the goddess, I was against having that bitch as my sister-in-law in the first place, I could have killed her,” Snickers Arya.
We spent the whole night looking for my mate but there was no trace of her, I was getting desperate. Even the girl she works with at the hotel is nowhere to be found.
It has been three days and Allie was still missing, I couldn’t eat or sleep. All my attempts to mind link her were in vain and I even reached out to all the neighboring packs in the region. I asked my men to check her former pack but that was futile too.
It has been day seven without my beautiful mate by my side and I could feel myself getting weak, for the first time in my life, I was scared that I will lose the most precious thing I’d ever had.
The door to my office opened and I growl when I saw Alaiah and Alpha Martin walk in. The short-depilated Alpha was fuming in anger that I had canceled the engagement with his daughter.
“Get out of my office,” I growled at them. They have been nothing but disrespectful to the men on my borders since I prohibited them from entering my pack.
“You are not seriously going to cancel an engagement that benefits our pack for that little mate of yours,”
“Yes, I was wrong to agree to your father’s proposition,” I sigh, leaning back in my seat.
“King Lavista, you’re making a grave error, and if my pack joins the northern Lycans, we’ll be unstoppable and we will wipe you out, so why not ally with us,”
I glare at the man and he shrinks.
“Did you just directly threaten me? Your king?” I ask, getting up from my chair. The man backs away and swallows in fear.
“Well, take it as you want but we shall make alliances with others open to it, and don’t forget that we are one of the wealthiest packs,” He says, fear evident in his voice even though he doesn’t make it apparent.
Alaiah is crying for good now and begging me to reconsider taking her as my Queen but I refuse, she is too power hungry, how did I not see it sooner?
“You can’t manipulate me to marry your daughter and as for alliances, we’ll make more, and keep in mind that my pack will remain at the top and no matter what you or the northern leaders do, you will suffer for it,” I say in an authoritarian tone, making sure I release my Lycan King aura.
“Now get out of my office,” They hesitate to leave so I call Jack and Dan to kick them out and they are more than happy to.
“You’ll regret it! That little bitch won’t give you anything! She is a slut, a nobody without a pack backing her!” Alaiah screams.
