“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 it had been a while since I’ve controlled lightning magic, I knew that now wasn’t the time to doubt myself. I wasn’t going to allow us to get captured and become Douglas’s prisoners!


As lightning continued to crash all around us, I closed my eyes and called for the storm spirits to help me. A flash of power and justice to behold, lightning, I call your power for me to hold!


I opened my eyes and held my hand to the sky. A bolt of lightning crashed into my hand as waves of intense electricity surged through my body.


Although it was painful at first, I held on to the urge to scream. The electricity zapped every part of my body. It even felt like it was frying my organs and accelerating the beat of my heart.


I took a deep breath and looked on as everyone around us stopped to watch what was unfolding before them. The men had stopped fighting Dylan and even Ben was starting to back away.


“W-who are you?!” One of the men stammered.
