Chapter 123
Wiyzh-Sybylle Landia.*
Imperial Palace,
Beatrix room.
The little girl whose hair was packed in four ponytails, body bare of any jewellery, attired in a knee-length down made of the finest silk and bare-footed, abruptly rose from the chair that she was seated on. Her maid, a tall, green-haired teenager who was dressed in a blue long floral gown and also barefooted, quickly knelt. She also let go of the mirror she was holding with both hands and it started levitating. “Easy, my princess,” she said in a low tone, with her head bowed and her hands across her chest.
“It’s… ” the princess heaved a sigh, “Don’t mind me, Cordelia. It’s okay.” Beatrix replied with a facepalm.
The large ruby-coloured mirror was a special one used by royalty to watch an event live from its source without being found out. She knew only werewolves had access to the direct streaming of the triennial contest but she found a way to connect to it using the mirror. She actually stole it from where it was kept with the help of her maid and replaced it with a fake for the time being.
This is the third day that she’s been making use of it. She was able to see that black-haired man’s prowess at soccer on Elimination Day. She knew that was Phoenix since he knew how to disguise himself really well. And she also saw how the other members of Blood Star performed. She didn’t see her sister-in-law in any of the activities. But she got wowed by her eldest brother’s amazing voice. She knew her brother to be a really strong wizard and his participation (which was against the rules) was maybe just for fun.
Maybe her big sis would come out the new Alpha. She saw Lavana fight yesterday and her arrogant opponent nearly perished from receiving the one-sided beating from her big sis. She was assured everything will be well when Lavana drinks the prize and become crowned as the new Alpha. But things didn’t turn out as she’d expected. Zehelina was ultimately chosen and though she tried in the first match, the final match to determine the new Alpha, she didn’t do well or more precisely, she was greatly prevented from doing her best and even got her tail cut off and consumed by the opponent- a total disgrace for any wolf rank.
She felt really concerned and wanted to tear that opponent of hers to pieces if only she was there. She felt sad that Blood Star not only lost but would be disbanded. Unexpectedly, her brother did the unspeakable, stopping the announcement of that Hillian as the new Alpha. His eyes even turned red after defying that Alpha Francis. This made her stunned. Her brother was a wizard, right? His eyes had turned red and those eyes belonged to no other race than a werewolf and more specifically, an Alpha!
This was huge news! So Phoenix…. was a hybrid? Did Mom and Dad know this from the start?
She hadn’t finished processing that information but more surprises were thrown at her. He killed Hillian and smugly challenged the top three Alphas to a duel. Yes, as a high-ranking, certified wizard, he definitely can beat them all but at the moment, he can’t use any of his magic powers, lest they discover his hybrid identity.
As if that wasn’t enough, her big sis joined the fray calling an Alpha by his name without permission but it seems this Alpha Chase likes her sister-in-law. This fact made her pissed. He even said he’d take her as a wife after beating Phoenix, something which was unattainable. And then the greatest jaw-dropper was Lavana revealing that she was an heiress and this Alpha Chase’s ex-mate! This was what made her stand up from the chair in disbelief.
She sat on the chair again and tried her best to calm down. Her maid handed her a glass containing a pink liquid which she sipped through a straw.
“Cordy, please hold it for me. I need to keep watching.” she eventually ordered.
“Noted, princess,” the maid responded and went back to holding the mirror in place.
…
Blood Star pack,
Rolandro’s home.
Earlier when Zehelina turned out to be the final contender of their pack, they were surprised and also greatly worried in addition to being furious when that bastard Hillian not only cut off but also ate her tail- double abomination!
And then they felt unreconciled when nothing was done about it and instead, that stupid Alpha Francis wanted to announce Hillian as the new Alpha. They felt their days of being a family would be over as soon as their selected people returned to the land. But they got the shock of their life when they saw that Lavana’s mate interrupted Alpha Francis- something never done in history and he even killed that Hillian.
Yes, they were happy that that scum of a man got his retribution but then, this meant double trouble for them. It wasn’t as straightforward as merely disbanding and finding either an Alphaless pack or one with an Alpha king, to join anymore. They would suffer torture in unimaginable ways and then all of them will be eliminated!
What had he done?
That wasn’t all. He suddenly revealed that he was not even a Beta as they’d thought but a freaking Alpha wolf!
He not only slew that Hillian but challenged the three untouchable Alpha Kings. Now that was crazy!
That mysterious beautiful lady joined the fray and Alpha Chase wasn’t even bothered about her disrespectful tone. Rather he laughed- an obvious sign that he likes her.
And then, that lady… she dropped the bomb!
She’s shockingly called herself LAVANA! She referred to herself also as an heiress of the former third-ranked pack, Moon Crest, daughter to the late Alpha Brandon and Luna Nayelie McKenny, and much more startling, she was even the repudiated Luna of the 2nd-ranked Alpha king, Chase!
So many stunners in such a short time.
They looked at each other still not believing. How can that lady be Lavana, what sort of witchcraft was this? The one they were familiar with wasn’t that tall and was skinny. Yes, she was good-looking too despite her ordeals but this one they were seeing right now, in no way did she look like Lavana.
“But she did peck Phoenix. And he didn’t stop her when she referred to herself first with that name.” a pack member argued.
“Gosh! This is too much to take in.” Magnolia yanked her hair.
“We have to watch to the end and know our fate and their fate. Damn, this is getting interesting!” a pack member called Enzi Townes said, excitement written on his face.
..
At the lodged residence, Jacinta balled her hands into fists, sinking her nails deep into her palms until blood seeped out. She gritted her teeth as she beheld the scene on the screen.
She didn’t care about that Phoenix guy even when he challenged the superiors to a battle, wanting to change the Alpha rankings a day ahead. She didn’t even feel worried when her mate got off that VVIP section and said he’d finish off that arrogant Phoenix.
She became uneasy after seeing that beautiful red-haired woman with a body that left her in the dust. She got tense when her mate didn’t even scold her for calling him without his title- something only she and her mate’s parents were entitled to do. Did it mean that he likes that woman? She’s the one he wants to marry next, not even minding the fact that the lady already has a mate? Was he tired of her long ago and sought a perfect woman?
All these thoughts made her blood boil. Did he not even care about the fact that she Jacinta Remmington came from the noble Syner family of purebred Betas, and most importantly, was even carrying his offspring- a son- his heir!
Or was he planning on making the offspring of him and this woman his heir? Considering how strong and good-looking she was, their child would be even better than the one she was carrying. What will happen to her and the baby then? Is he going to murder his son and reduce her to an Omega’s position in the pack, even denounce her as Luna after framing her? Would he really do such a despicable thing?
She gasped after this hot lady on the screen revealed her identity to be Lavana. How could this lady be her? The Lavana she knew was someone who could be considered a skeleton queen, nothing to write home about. No matter how much she ate after escaping from the pack, there was no way she could look like that lady on screen. Maybe her ears were playing tricks on her? But she said she was from Moon Crest pack which was indeed where that b*tch was captured from but she turned out to be the heir?
Ok, accepted! Miraculously, Lavana turned out to look like that and was an heiress and she’s strong too but she cannot beat her husband. She felt that Lavana’s boasting of replacing her mate to beat her husband was a joke. But then, it even turned out that she wasn’t even Chase’s first chance mate-something she’d always been proud of. It was Lavana!
And Chase never told her anything. It seems his wolf spirit disagreed with his decision and that’s why whenever this husband of hers banged her, it was Lavana’s name he called. Turns out because the mate Ivan approved was nearby!
Thinking of it, she’d never heard Ivan’s voice. He didn’t even speak to her wolf spirit either. Chase said his wolf hated talking but loved fighting and she believed him. So this was the truth!
Did Chase know that this lady was his ex-mate and wanted her back since she now left her- his current mate, in the dust? He wanted to have kids with this Lavana so bad?
“Lavana, I will kill you even if it’ll bring about my death. I’ll first torture you in unimaginable ways, ways that’ll send shivers down your spine. And I’ll bury you alive!” she swore in her heart as she gnashed her teeth.
…
Ralton Pack!

The ex-Alpha Blake and his wife, ex-Luna Anita Remmington, together with the shifted of the pack were in the ancestral hall watching the final day of the battle as they were interested in seeing who will emerge as the new Alpha today but unexpectedly things changed, and the winner was even killed by the black-haired guy from Blood Star who turned out to be an Alpha wolf.
Why did they bother going through all of the stress when they had the easy way out from the beginning? That Phoenix answered that question by saying he didn’t want to be recognized publicly as one and from the reaction of his pack members, they didn’t even know. Probably he must’ve told them he was a Beta wolf.
They felt this lone Alpha was odd. Ok, he slew that Hillian and showed himself as an Alpha- they accepted that, but this idiot just decided to cross the line and went ahead to challenge the top three Alphas.
Then a beautiful lady came over and was rude to their Alpha king. Shockingly, he even laughed and wanted to take her as his wife after beating up her mate, Phoenix.
This made his parents and Jacinta’s parents stand up in incredulity. What the hell was wrong with Alpha Chase? Had he gone nuts? Jacinta, their Luna was even carrying his heir!
“Blake, what’s the meaning of this?” Lucas Syner, the ex-Beta of the pack asked with a scowl.
