“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

I slept alone last night as Xavier left to go to Caspian. I was nervous to be left at the castle by myself knowing what I did but knowing that Xavier entrusted me to look after Noah while he was gone gave me some confidence.


It’s now the next morning and I woke up surprisingly early. I got out of bed and got ready for the day.


After taking a shower and dressing myself up in a simple outfit, I sat back down on the bed and pulled out the magic mirror. With Xavier gone, I now was able to practice my magic in the comfort of our room. I wouldn’t have to worry about someone accidentally stumbling upon me practicing magic in the garden.


I wiped the mirror and called Mona to me. After a few brief moments, she floated out of the mirror and greeted me with a smile.


“I know it’s so weird. I’m usually still sleeping in at this time.”


“So, what’s up? Is something wrong?”
