“What would you like for your hair, princess? Pearls or flowers? Mary’s voice knocked on the wall of my ears. However, I didn’t have it in me to reply to her.
What would I even tell her? It is no better than dressing a corpse
The white bridal dress, silky veil and satin gloves adorn the like should be happy, full of joy and my face should glow but I am
beautiful bride ready to bid goodbye to her maiden life. I the verge of tears,
The silky gown, which is soft and pleasing to the touch, feels like hot acid on my skin. I want to rip it off my body, shred these gloves and burn the veil on my head!
I shouldn’t have been the one marrying but her, that omega who stole everything from me. Everything changed in one night. How can that be possible!!
Someone, please tell me I am in a dream, a nightmare, I want to wake up from. Oh please, dear goddess, have some pity on me and stop this cruel joke of yours.
In just one night, my life took a complete turn like Cinderella’s did, after the clock struck 12, but my life was real. I didn’t need a fairy godmother, I was born a princess..
But now I am no better than a maid. I desperately wish to seek that fairy to return everything to how it was,
1 need her to have my father take his words back, to erase the scene I saw last night from my eyes, heart and soul. To tell me, it was all a lie, a dream and. and…
I felt my hands trembling, the truth ricocheting slowly, trying to come to the surface from where I had buried it deep. It’s trying to claw at my heart and soul as if they are not already in much pain.
It’s telling me again and again that it’s not a dream but the truth, but I don’t want to listen!
I don’t want to marry that savage Alpha king! It was not me who was supposed to marry him. Nol
“Princess! Princess!” Mary’s high–pitched voice broke me out of my trance. lfisted my trembling hands till my knuckles turned white. I can’t cry. I can’t break down here, not now.
Enough powder had been applied to my puffy eyes and my face was caked with makeup which was otherwise gaunt and pale.
“You may use whatever you desire.”
Marry nodded with a concerned face. She has been my personal maid for as long as I can remember. I believe the understands my fervent wish to go against this marriage the most, but do I have any other option?
I am now a discarded fool who has been rejected by my mate and disowned by my father, the Alpha of the Crystal Moon pack.
I feel my body twitch in a fit of anxiety, fear and deep melancholy when I remember what happened to me last night. Remember!? I scoffed at my choice of words, remember!? When it’s the only thing revolving in front of my eyes.
It was a little late than evening. On my father’s and elder joint decision, Hazel Jones, the omega of our pack, was to be

Chapter 1
brought to our mansion because she was chosen as the savage Alpha king’s bride.
Damian Edwards. He is famous for his ruthless and fearsome personality among werewolves, the strongest alpha king who alone rules the whole south. He is known to be a warmonger.
He never leaves a chance to wage war on smaller packs to exert s power. He defeats their alpha and merges their territories into his.
Unfortunately enough, some days ago, our pack caught his eye. He and his troops visited our borders with unfriendly intentions. There was no way our small number of army and warriors could fight against him and thus, Father and the elders came up with the idea of a truce, following the old traditions.
Arranged Marriage.
We were to offer a she–wolf from our pack to him as a means to solidify the truce between us, but there were slim chances for him to accept such an old and forgotten tradition.
However, to our delight, he accepted, which came as a surprise to everyone. Nevertheless, we moved forward with our plans.
Betty, my other maid, informed me that Hazel Jones had been lought to the mansion as ordered. I went to see her as the pack’s princess. To reward her sacrifice for our pack as well as to express condolences for her sacrifice was not ordinary.
However, the sight which greeted me when I opened the door to her room was earth–shattering.
The ground slipped beneath my feet when I saw half–naked Austin, my mate lying on top of a barely covered Hazel She writhed in his embrace, moaning, and he groaned, cooing sweet nothings to her. Both of them halted when the door creaked open.
horror at
Austin’s face was blanched when he saw me, but I can bet, it wat nowhere near what I was feeling. His was pure getting caught and guilt no one wanted while I stood there burning alive in pain, agony, heartbreak and grief which seemed to swallow me whole.
Anger was a shade of soothing red which painted me seconds later, and I am glad it did. Otherwise, I would have lost myself in that moment. I am afraid forever.
Austin and I had been there for each other since childhood. He is Uncle Nicholas’s son, our pack’s beta. Our bond ran deeper than the mate bond between us, which came later than our love for each other in our lives. We were each other’s soulmates.
He was the one who always used to say that to me and yet there he was lying in bed with another woman in his mate’s house.
The moment we got to know we were each other’s mates on my eighteenth birthday, it was the happiest and the most special night of my life.
We truly became one that day. We were going to hold our wedding soon, and he was going to become the alpha of our pack because my father only had two daughters, me and my elder sister, who was already married.
He was my mate and soon–to–be CrystalMoon’s alpha, and yet he betrayed me.
He cut me deep with a knife called love, always hiding it behind the bouquet of roses he would bring me every time he visited our mansion. His flowers were still kept in my room in the vase.
Fresh and sweet–smelling, the ones he brought this morning. But little did I know that tonight, he had finally decided to reveal the knife be always hid behind it.
What are both of you doing?” My voice came out incessantly calm and chilly despite the storm raging inside me,

“L–Lily, this is not what you think it is. M–Me and H1–Hazel were just we were just…Ah! You know, tomorrow is the wedding and since there was a ball. I had too much wine to drink and II–Hazel was also there, drinking alongside me when, suddenly. she started feeling hot and unwell because s–someone had spike her drink”
So you decided to help her sure it. He got down from the bed, walking towards the while Hazel hastily tried covering herself up and the red bite marks festered on her body.
Yes, that’s exactly what it is! You know how I am going to be the alpha, so every pack person is going to be my responsibility and seeing her in such distress, I couldn’t endure it. You understand me right, Lily?” He stood in front of me, wearing the same smile he always had on his face when he handed me the ropes.
How could I not realize it was a sweetened fake smile all along? My lips twisted involuntarily and I couldn’t stop myself from raising my hand in the air
The sound echoed through the room and 1 felt my palm tingle.
AUSTIN” That blonde wench screamed and ran over to Austin who had been slapped by me, wrapping a blanket around her body. They looked like a sweet pair of love birds who had been in love for a long time.

Anyone watching the scene would say, Austin and Hazel were mes instead of me and him, known to everyone in the pack that we were the famous couple in love since our childhood.
“Austin, does it hurt? I am sorry. I am sorry. It’s all because of me Princess, please, Austin was just trying to help me. It isn’t what you think it is! Please clear your head!”
still get angry when I remember her words from last night. Clear my head!? Clear my head that Austin is my mate? Clear my head that I am my father’s daughter and Crystal Moon’s princess? Was that what she meant to say?
I remember how rage took over me and I held her by her hair and right at that moment, Austin yelled and grabbed my hand separating it from Hazel’s blonde locks.
“Liliana! What are you doing!? I told you, it’s not her fault. So, stop taking it out on her!” He addressed me with my full name and took that wench’s side over me, his mate.
Both of them made me look like a villain while he protected his feeble lover and her, who sobbed pitifully in his arms. It wasn’t even funny.
was a brilliant display of love. In front of me, embers of warmth scattered everywhere, while inside me, shards of glass scattered everywhere piercing through my soul.
“Austin, are you really taking her side in front of me, your mate Despite the chilling blizzard and molten anger hitting me at the same time, my love for him prevailed, and my voice broke when I voiced that question to him. He was the man I had. loved all my life.
How could he do that to me!?
Liliana, it’s not about taking sides. You are wrong here! It’s wrong of you to accuse Hazel of what has happened. I am telling you, I was merely helping her get rid of the drug but you
“You could have asked someone else for help, call for a doctor. Aus, why are you using her situation as an excuse for what
did? Was it only you who could cure her!?”

Chapter 1
“L–Lily, b–how could I possibly entrust her to someone else and by the time we could call for a doctor, it would have gotten
late!”
“That’s enough, Austin Wilson. How could you possibly entrust er to someone else? You talk as if she is your mate!
“LILIANA! Everyone here knows who my mate is. Don’t be absul He bellowed, expressing his anger towards me for the first time and it hurt. It hurt me.
It hurt me when he said, I was his mate. If he knows I am his mate then why? Why? Oh why? Did he climb with Hazel Jones to her bed? Is it not wrong?
I am angry at him because I love him. I don’t want to loose him when he is the only man I have ever loved till the end then why? why did he return my love with a cheap betrayal and burned my soul into dark black ashes which are on the verge of becoming red again?
“Was her drink really spiked or is that also a lie? Like how you seem to be lying to me about everything because Austin, don’t tell me you didn’t feel how precariously our mate bond inched closely to the edge of a cliff, I spoke, still reeling from the pain of having my mate cheat on me with another she–wolf.
The moment I stepped into the room, I have been tormented by deep lightning strokes of pain scarring and burning my skin. It doesn’t seem to go away and it is stll there, the ache, the agony, eating me alive.
“Liliana! Hazel’s drink was really spiked.” He spat every word, applying pressure to it angrily, and it hit my heart like a boulder.
“And if you are feeling that much pain, then let’s just remove it forever. I Austin Wilson reject Liliana Robinson as my mate” My heart started thudding against its bony cage and I clutched my chest hard when I felt a tsunami of pain washing me down. Its water seeped through my body and turned my blood poisonous, black, murky and painful.
The moment those words left his lips, the pain intesified, doubling than before as if the ache from earlier was a joke. It was extremely painful.
The tsunami won’t let me go. Its water kept sinking deeper until my body shrivelled.
It flooded my system until it started pouring out of my eyes. My eyes became captors of that painful water as long as they could before it finally started dripping down, wetting my clothes.
I was crying, I was hurt. Devastated. In one night, I lost Austin, my mate. I Lost him to her, Hazel Jones.
