Story: The Rejected Alpha
“Maverick! I have been with you for eight years!” She exclaimed, “You said you loved me, not Violet! You promised that I would become Luna and that you would provide the best life for me and our puppy! “You said all that…”
Stella lay on the floor, wailing, accusing Maverick of his crimes.
I turned and walked out of the office, feeling helpless and numb; the man I had loved for 20 years had turned out to be even more vicious than I had imagined.
I needed to break the mate bond as soon as possible!
“Please make me a potion that will break a mate bond. “Set any price you want,” I told the witch.
A thick stack of cash lay on the table; it was my deposit for the witch’s potion.
Even as the most well-known witch in the area, she had rarely encountered a client as generous as this.
“The potion will take three days to brew,” she told me.
“Not a problem. I’ll come get it in three days.
I only had to wait another three days.
Whispers and scrutinising stares followed me everywhere in the pack, and whenever I tried to join the others and ask questions, they scattered like scared birds.
I couldn’t take it anymore and went to find the Beta.
“What is going on?””I asked.
“Well… Stella has been spreading word throughout the pack, saying that the Alpha has already broken the mate bond with you, and…
Beta Cooper trailed off, glancing at me nervously, as if afraid to continue.
“Go on. What else did she say?” I persisted.
“She said you fed her wolfsbane… and caused the death of the Alpha’s heir.”
Did I cause her harm? Maverick was the one who killed their puppy, but Stella blamed me.
She intended to use public opinion to force me to leave.
It was too bad she chose the wrong target; right now, it was Maverick who wouldn’t let me leave.
That night, Maverick learnt about the rumours circulating in the pack via the Beta.
He flew into a rage and ordered the two wolves who had insulted me the most to be expelled from the pack.
“My Luna will only ever be Violet, and Asher is the only heir to this pack. Anyone who spreads false rumours again can get out of my pack right now!” he growled.
Stella watched the scene unfold from a corner, her expression darkening by the second.
They’d been together for eight years. She was on the verge of becoming Luna, only to be reduced to nothing at the last moment.
How could she accept this? So, what was so great about me?
Three days flew by in the blink of an eye.
I stared blankly at the newly acquired potion for breaking the mate bond in my hand.
20 years of marital pain and struggle flashed through my mind like a movie, like a never-ending nightmare.
I wondered if Maverick truly loved me in those good years, or if he just thought I was the best Luna candidate among the available options.
After all, I had loved him with all of my heart, including using the Silver Wolf pack’s resources to help him.
