“Will you marry me, Alpha Xavier?” I asked and bowed slightly. Lord Xavier is currently the Alpha of the Leonard family. 
Apparently, he’s been hailed as one of the strongest men on the continent—and the most handsome. Not like that matters to me but I guess it’s a plus. 
“Excuse me?” The man stared at me in disbelief. “If have to repeat myself, will you marry me?” I looked up at Xavier who hadn’t moved a muscle nor taken his eyes off of me. 
He just needs to accept my proposal already! This silence and waiting is unbearable! I’m offering you money and power. 
What more could you possibly— “I accept your marriage proposal.” Xavier interrupted my thoughts and released his hold on me. I’ve succeeded! Another step closer to your death, my Lord…

 ------- Xavier’s POV 

I accepted the witch girl’s proposal and walked out of the parlor without looking back at her. How could I? 
My heart raced inside of my chest, though I knew that these beats weren’t my own. Throughout the entire ordeal, something itched in the back of my mind. I knew what it was. 
“Lyon!” I commanded through thought. “What was that all about? What happened?” A howl echoed through my mind. 
“She’s our mate!” Lyon exclaimed. Mate?! The daughter of the Wisdom family was supposed to be my Luna? I couldn’t believe that the Moon Goddess was capable of such jokes and trickery.

Propose To The Alpha

“Interesting seeing you here so early, Liam.” Xavier’s tone was flat. “I wasn’t expecting you here until the day after tomorrow.”


Xavier walked over at me as his eyes stared down at Liam.


Liam looked like a little child with his hand caught in the cookie jar.


“I haven’t seen the rose garden in so long, so I came early to pay my respects.” Liam slowly let go of my hand as he answered Xavier.


I covered my hand and looked up at the two men in front of me. The atmosphere around them always felt so strange but I could never explain why. It was so awkward but tense.


“Next time you shift your schedule, have someone report it to me. Anyway, go back and get some rest. We still have some preparations for the Luna Festival we need to finish tomorrow.”


“Will do. Goodbye, my Lord.” Liam fisted his hand over his chest and bowed slightly before leaving.
