she nodded, rounding her eyes.
“But you are Beta’s daughter. You must be very well-trained.”
She down-turned her lips. “I have lost my touch… Alpha Liam used to beat me a lot and never allowed me to go for training.”
I had to marvel at her antics. Did Graham bother to question Alpha Liam about his alleged abuse towards her? I saw no wounds on her ever.
“Please, Luna Kylie. I beg of you,”
she said, clasping her hands in front of her. “I know I am just a nobody, but I can’t go against Alpha’s order.”
I clenched my teeth and nodded. If Graham asked her to train with me, could I go against his order?
We stood in front of each other on the training mat. She took her position, and I took mine. As we circled each other, her intense focus made it difficult to believe she required any training. Suddenly, she lunged at me and kicked me hard on my belly. Surprised, I stumbled back. She didn’t give me a chance to recover and swung her leg over my side. I stopped her leg with my forearm and then, in a swift move, ducked and boxed her knee. She yelped as she fell down. With a fierce snarl, she launched herself into the air, aiming a punch directly at my face.
This felt like an attack, not mere training. It was as if she wanted to… kill me. I ducked, but the punch landed on my shoulder, making me hiss in pain. She grinned and then, with full force, swung her leg, aiming at my head. I dodged her, and she stumbled forward. I spun quickly and aimed to elbow the side of her face, but she turned her face and my elbow landed right on her nose. She screamed in pain as blood oozed out of her nose.
The door opened and Graham rushed in. “Zoe, Zoe!”
Tears rolled out. “Graham, she— she forced me to fight with her only to— to do this. Our baby—”
she cried.
I stared at her in stunned silence. What baby? She was pregnant? And she just told a lie. Gods above. How was I going to compete with that?
“How could you?”
Graham snarled, catching my throat.
I grabbed his wrist as my mind tried to understand the whole situation. His grasp on my throat tightened, and I started to cough. “Graham!”
I wheezed.
He shoved me down on the ground. “Stay away from her, Kylie. This is my last warning. She is pregnant with my pup!”
He turned to her, picked her up in his arms and strode out of the pack house.
I watched them with a numb mind with my hand on my throat. This was such a slap on my face.
For two years, I wanted to be pregnant by my mate, but I couldn’t. And this girl got pregnant in a few days? Graham’s blatant cheating took a new turn that day.
As I dragged my feet out of the training grounds, I knew that everyone’s eyes were on me. The incident was going to become the biggest gossip of the pack. Zoe was carrying Alpha’s heir, and that was going to elevate her status in the pack.
All my hopes dashed against the rocks of time. There was nothing left in my life. All that I held dear – my Alpha, my pack, my life, my business, and my reputation – were ripped away so suddenly that it felt like the ground had been yanked out from under me.
I don’t know when I reached my room and when I flopped on my bed, but the constant buzzing of my phone snagged my attention.
“Kylie!”
It was Katy.
“Katy?”
Hearing her sent a sliver of warmth into my chest.
“Girl, I am so sorry for calling you so late. I was hiking in the Andes and we just came back. How are you and where are you?”
she sounded so enthusiastic that I chuckled and wiped my tears. Goddess, I missed her so much.
I came directly to the point. “Katy, I need a favor.”
I wanted to tell her everything, but that would make her come to me and create a huge show.
After a moment of silence, she said, “I’m listening.”
“I want to meet Alpha Logan urgently. Is that possible?”
“Logan?”
she sounded surprised.
“Yes. Can you arrange a meeting with him?”
I waited with my breath lodged in my throat. It wasn’t like Alpha Logan was going to meet me tomorrow if Katy asked. I knew he was a very busy werewolf and it could be months before I got an appointment.
“Okay, I’ll ask him. Is there anything else you’d like to talk about?”
Even after two years of not talking to each other, her concern for me was overwhelming.
“No,”
I replied in a hoarse voice.
“Take care, Kylie,”
she said and disconnected the call.
I pressed the phone to my chest and tipped my head up, praying to the goddess that I get an early appointment.
Feeling better, I went out towards the forest at night to let Coral out because I wanted to recede in the background and heal. ‘Coral, take over me,’ I summoned her, but she didn’t reply. ‘Coral!’ I called her again. No reply again. I panicked and called her as I ran, pushing myself, but Coral didn’t come out. “No. No. No. No!”
I cried. “Coral, you can’t sleep. Where are you?”
However, I tried again. At the back of my mind, I knew she couldn’t take further trauma from her mate cheating on her. Hearing about Zoe’s pregnancy was the last straw. Coral left me. Alone. Miserable. Lonely. Husk.
As I headed back home, I wondered how much more I could take. I felt like ending my life.
I lay on the ground, curled in a fetal position, unable to cry, feeling hollow. My phone rang, and I picked it up like a robot. “Hello?”
“Kylie!”
Katy chirped. “Alpha Logan can meet you the day after. He’s coming to the Lunar pack to meet Alpha Graham.”
Kylie POV
Surprise washed over me. I was sure that Alpha Logan would give me an appointment at least two months later, but he was coming here in two days. “That’s lovely news, Katy,”
I said, finding myself eager to meet him. “But if he’s meeting Graham, then what is the agenda?”
It was apparent that he wasn’t coming to meet me.
“I don’t know, girl,”
Katy replied. “He said that he was going to meet Alpha Graham as such and that he will meet you there.”
I stifled a squeal as hopes rose inside me. This was my chance to get my pack back from Graham and exit the marriage gracefully. “Thanks so much, Katy,”
I said with a smile. “You don’t know what it means to me.”
“Don’t be stupid!”
Katy chided me with banter. “I would have also loved to come, but I have to attend this stupid ball which my Alpha brother has asked me to on his behalf!”
“Why? What about his Luna? She should attend it,”
I said.
Katy sighed. “Alpha Logan refuses to get married and tied down to one woman! He is thirty and still waiting for his mate. I’ve asked him several times to take a chosen mate.”
I chuckled. Some people lived up to their reputation. “I see… Well, thanks again, Katy. I would have loved to meet you.”
“Sure girl!”
She said enthusiastically. “Catch you later!”
For the first time in a long, things looked up. If he was coming in two days, then I had to prepare everything and tell him in one go. It took me the entire day to jot down my case. Knowing that Ana was the only one who might disturb me in my room, I took advantage of the situation and meticulously prepared my case to present to Alpha Logan. My only worry was how I was going to meet him alone.
I hoped Graham would call me to tell me about Alpha Logan, but he didn’t. It was the next day in the morning he came to my room after training. I had taken a bath and was dressing up when he came. “Kylie,”
he said in a clipped voice.
