My heart stuttered, sadness coating it. The spell was so potent that he had forgotten me and that we were mates. “Because we are moon blessed mates,”
I said.
He blinked his eyes and pulled away. I was left with an empty feeling. “Katy, I don’t remember you at all, but—”
he pursed his lips and looked away. “Did you—”
He stabbed his fingers in his hair. “Did you—”
I stared at him because I knew what he was asking about. I could’ve intervened, but I wanted him to remember it. Only then the spell would weaken.
He looked at me again and said, “Did you do something to me when I disqualified Diana from the competition?”
A grin spread across my face. So he felt the connection? That was all I wanted. I clasped my hand behind my back and walked mischievously past him. “I may have.”
At the same time, I wanted to tell him about Diana and Beau, but that would be of no good. He was under a spell and weak at the moment. Beau could become dangerous if Ace confronted him.
He captured my arm and whirled me. “What did you do?”
I bit my bottom lip and stared at him through my eyelashes. “Wanna know what I did? Give me a kiss and I’ll spill.”
An adorable blush spread across his face. “Okay…”
he said.
I teased, “But I didn’t even win the first task. If the prince kisses the wrong candidate, won’t it be seen as a bias?”
A crease appeared on his forehead. “There’s no one to judge me,”
he replied, taking a step towards me.
My heart raced like a hummingbird’s—rapid and relentless as he came to stand in front of me. I tipped my face up and gazed into his eyes, that were pools of honey. He cupped my face and brushed my cheeks with his knuckles. “You are… soft,”
he murmured, as if exploring me again. He brought his face so close that we were nose to nose. “Your scent… it maddens me. Are you a witch?”
He closed his eyes and inhaled my scent. He touched my lips with his own, delicately brushing over them. A shudder ran down my spine and I whimpered. When Ace pressed his lips to mine, I moaned and opened up for him like a flower to the sun. He delved his tongue into my mouth and kissed me, slowly and softly. I planted my hands on his chest to maintain balance.
I surrendered to the dominance of his tongue in the kiss, basking in the power play, not because I craved it, but because I wanted him to remember us. Every kiss with him after the spell was important. And I had to make the best of it.
He left my lips and rested his forehead on mine. “What are you doing to me, Katy?”
he said, breathing heavily.
“I am trying to—”
He placed a finger on my lips. Exhaling audibly, he retreated a step and said, “Now, give me an answer.”
I nodded. “Yes, I tugged you with our bond.”
His mouth opened and then snapped shut. Suddenly, his phone rang. “This is urgent,”
he said. “I have to take it.”
He took the call and exited my suite, conversing on the phone.
Emotions choked my throat, but I was happy. Ara was happy. There was progress.
The next day, we got a tour of the Viking pack. Luce ensured I sat in the last car while she sat with Rebecca in the first car with Ace.
“Where is Diana?”
I asked Alicia.
“She was sent home yesterday evening just after the dinner,”
Alicia informed me with a satisfying smile.
Startled, I jerked my head back.

Rebecca POV Luce Norton was my close friend. Her mother liked me a lot when they had visited my pack. Two years ago, my father had hosted an ally meet in which Alpha Soren was also present. Luce and Beau had accompanied Alpha Soren and his Luna. We both gelled well, and it was then Luce told me about her brother, who would be the future Alpha of the Viking pack.
Ace Norton was the most beautiful wolf I’d ever seen. It was said that the Viking pack wolves were descendants of the Vikings and hence the name. The wolves in this pack were incredibly muscular and attractive, making it impossible for me to resist drooling. However, I had to school myself and my eyes were only on the Luna’s position.
Luce gave me first-hand information about the traditional Luna choosing called “Selection”
and enrolled me for the competition personally. However, she had also informed me about Katy Hanks and Ace’s interest in her.
I knew who Katy was. She was the sister of the famous Alpha Logan and his Luna, Kylie. If I didn’t do things right, I knew Katy could potentially damage my chances of winning the competition because of her family’s influence. It didn’t help that she was alpha blood and a trained warrior.
I abhorred her for all her qualities and then some more. She was like a thorn in my eye, who I wanted to get rid of asap.
When I heard Luce hadn’t invited her for the competition, I knew why. Luce feared that if Katy married Ace, Ace would undoubtedly become the Alpha of the Viking pack. After all, Katy’s family would have been a powerful alliance. And that’s where Luce’s interest clashed.
Alpha Ace had his eyes on Katy and for my plans to flow smoothly, I suggested Luce to cast a spell on Alpha Ace.
What can I say the family was foolish enough to cast a spell on him. In fact, Luce was stupid. She was driven by her ambition to take over the Viking pack along with her chosen mate, Beau Jordon. As if I didn’t know.
Until my plans panned out, I had to keep her in my confidence. I constantly filled Luce’s ears with my thoughts, influencing the competition. After it got over, I was going to kick her out like the ass she was.
For the tour of the pack, Luce and I made sure that we sat with Alpha Ace. He was driving the jeep, looking his usual handsome self in his dark shades. I tried to converse with him, but he gave monotonous replies and that got me irritated. Anyway, my focus was to keep him away from Katy.
We stopped in a clearing in the heart of the pack’s territory where I saw that several pack members had gathered to see the potential Lunas, their excitement palpable. I stepped down from the jeep and walked to stand right next to Ace, who clearly was a towering figure of strength and leadership. I flicked my hair and plastered a smile on my face to show them I was going to be their Luna.
From the corner of my eyes, I saw Katy stepping out of the last car and standing with some lowly omega girls. When our gazes met, I snickered. I deserved to be the Luna of the Viking pack. In a show of dominance, I curled my hand around Alpha Ace’s arm and jerked my chin up. The envy on her face was so satisfying.
However, the next moment, Ace removed my hand from his arm and walked to where she was standing. He gazed at her through his shades intensely. The attention of the whole crowd fell on her, and my jealousy flared. I wanted to scratch her face, but Luce stopped me. “Not now, Rebecca,”
she whispered. “We’ll punish her later.”
“This is where we gather for ceremonies,”
Ace said to the other contestants who had gathered around him. “The Moon Goddess temple is close to here. We honor our ancestors and celebrate our victories.”
Clenching my fists, I walked to where Ace was and pushed the girls around him to reach him.
Suddenly, a spectator who seemed like an omega asked the contestants, “We know that most packs have hierarchy and that is why several packs don’t have very developed societies. What is your take on this?”
Ace smiled and said, “Would any of you like to answer that question?”
I narrowed my eyes at the omega.
How dare he question those who were high ranking? I wanted to smack him and maybe beat him up so that he would know his place, but
I stayed calm and looked at Katy.
She was looking at the omega with amusement. I knew she was going to reply to him, so I replied before her.
“Hierarchies can’t be destroyed,”
I said with confidence. “We are what we are. However, all a Luna can do is to engage with the pack members and help them when needed.”
The omega gave me a tight smile, and I knew I had put him in his place while saying that a Luna was far above him.
My skin crawled with raw jealousy when Ace removed his shades and looked warmly at Katy. “Would you like to answer that question?”
Why was he asking her only and not others?
I interjected, “I’m sure all other contestants would like to answer the question.”
Two girls raised their hands, and I nodded, giving them permission to speak. They gave ass answers, and I couldn’t help but gloat at my answer. I thought we were done, and started to leave when Katy stepped forward, her eyes meeting those of the pack members. In a soft and soothing voice, she said, “We are more than just hierarchies. The pack members are like a family to the
Alpha and the Luna. We have to support each other, trust in each other and only then can we thrive.
Our strength lies in being united, and each of you plays a vital role in the pack.”
The pack members erupted in a loud cheer as they clapped at her answer. Dark and oily, soul-deep rage exploded in my chest as my mind raced on what I could do. Should challenge her? But if I challenged her, Ace wouldn’t like it and was not ready to do so openly. I burned silently and vowed to remove Katy as soon as possible from the race.
