“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

“Mona! This isn’t funny! Please!” I watched the pathetic Wisdom girl plead for her werewolf lover.


I had to fight the urge to vomit. “Oh, my dear Eloise. Don’t you see? If you love something, sometimes it’s best to let it go.”


“You told me you weren’t in love with him!” I yelled at her.


I watched as Eloise’s mouth could only open but would utter no words.


“So, you lied to me.” I didn’t phrase it as a question because I already knew the answer. I knew the answer long before she even realized it.


“I…I didn’t plan for it to happen!”


“Oh, Eloise. You shouldn’t have lied to me.” I taunted her. “Now you’ll get to see what happens when you lie about falling in love with the enemy!”


It was like a waterfall streamed down her face as Eloise looked at Xavier and back at me.


“Don’t be sad, little witch,” I couldn’t hide the triumph in my voice. “You’ve said you always wanted justice and now we get to have it!”
