“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

Although the idea alone sounded outlandish, the arrogant werewolf king didn’t even give me a chance to explain myself before bursting into a laughing fit. It was like listening to nails scratching against a chalkboard.


I let out an irritated sigh. “Douglas, my dear friend.” I hated calling him that. “I know going against my own royal family isn’t going to be an easy task but–”


He interrupted. “Don’t forget that the blood of humans runs through your veins. Your powers pale in comparison to your fully-fledged vampire counterparts.” Douglas stated with a smirk on his face.


I bit the inside of my cheek and drew blood. Oh, how I wanted to wipe his face clean of that smugness.


I cleared my throat. “As I was saying… I have a plan that’s already set in motion that will help me gain the power I need to contest them. All I need from you is a little cooperation.”


Douglas tilted his head to the side. “What exactly do you want?”
