“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 got off my horse and started to walk through the town watching the people as they cleaned. What the hell happened here?


When I tried asking one of the citizens what happened, they all gave me the same answer.


“We were hiding in our homes,” a man told me.


“They strong-armed us into staying inside for the past two days,” a woman explained. “We were never allowed to leave so none of us saw anything.”


Just as I was starting to become agitated, a small child had tugged on the sleeves of my arm. I knelt down and gave them a warm smile.


“How about you, brave one? Maybe your eagle eyes have spotted something the others haven’t.”


The child hesitated and looked back at their parents to see if they had their permission to speak. The two nodded their heads in acknowledgment.


The child looked back at me. “W-well… I tried not to look outside because I got really scared when the thunder started. It was really noisy and loud.”
