“Are you okay, fiancee?” Alpha Tristan asked me with a soft smile. He might have sensed the sudden change in my mood. I smiled at him and

nodded my head.

“So, Tris, out of all the she- wolves in our world, you chose a half–breed who can’t even

shift?” The same woman beside

Jade spoke. “At least, you

should have chosen someone of your standard.”

“She is of my standard, Raya. I don’t know which meter you’re

using to check that. Whatever

it is, you need to update it. And about her wolf, I will see a way to bring her wolf,” he added, defending me. I knew this was all fake and wanted to show Raya that he had moved on and was interested in me.

I couldn’t help but watch Jade staring at Ezekiel opening, and he was focused on eating his breakfast, ignoring everyone at the table.

“From tomorrow onwards, you will train with me. Unless your b*dy is strong, there is less chance that your wolf will surface,” Alpha Tristan said when his mother spoke.

“She has a strong b*dy, son, She broke…” She immediately realized Jade was on the table, whose eyes and mind were mostly on Ezekiel, but they doubted the same case for her ears. So, Luna Opal changed the subject to breaking the vase instead of breaking her bone.

I forgot to breathe when Alpha Tristan wiped the sauce from the corner of my l*ps with his napkin. I knew it was all drama, but I was scared of my mate’s reaction, who was acting like he wasn’t watching me but knew everything.

I couldn’t imagine how he would be feeling right now.

I hoped he would understand that it would be better to reject each other.

“Woah! Aren’t you overreacting now, Tris?” Raya again commented. “You’re acting like you’re so much in love with your fiancee, but then you left her alone at her welcome party, which she attended with a mouse. Poor girl,”

“Really?” Jade’s interest finally shifted when Raya mentioned me. “You didn’t tell us about it, Bri.” Alpha Tristan was about to speak when I placed my hand over his, stopping him from speaking.

“There is nothing to tell about,

Jade. That night, Alpha Tristan might have failed as a fiancé, but it proved that he was an amazing Alpha because he left his bride for his people, who got stuck in the storm in the sea. So, I respect him for that,” I said, gathering all the information that Rory had given me. The night when everyone was busy partying, Alpha Tristan was working. Since the pack was on the island, trade through ships was common, and one of the ships got lost in the sea.

I could feel that my words had shocked many people, including Alpha Tristan himself.

At the same time, the loud sound of a chair screeching brought them to reality, and I was Ezekiel leaving from there without a word, and as usual, his beta tailed behind him.

I looked around, and my eyes landed on Zera, who was smirking.

She knew.

If not about us being friends, then definitely about our one- night stand.

“So, you respect me?” Alpha Tristan asked, cocking his brow.

“Well, as an Alpha, yes! It is not a surprise that you’ve

maintained the pack extremely well,” I said, knowing that the pack duties were handled by him while the whole kingdom’s duties were handled by Ezekiel.

He grinned widely–a genuine one. “I’m sorry for

disrespecting you,” He

apologized, and I wouldn’t lie, but I was shocked that he said those three words, but I didn’t comment anything or tease him that he apologized to me because Alpha’s ego was thin as a thread and I wasn’t interested in turning the table. We spent that day together to show others that we were getting

along while discussing our plan to bring Raya into his life.

From what I learned, Raya was Luna Kali’s niece, and felt that she wasn’t a good woman and was more interested in

Tristan’s money and status than him. Everything was fine between them until Tristan lost the match to Ezekiel, and the Lycan’s King title passed to Ezekiel instead of Tristan.

Instead of going through the rule of the elder son taking the position of king, Tristan gave an equal chance to his four- minute younger brother

because he felt the best among

them should serve the

kingdom.

I hadn’t seen it yet, but from his words, it was clear that he loved his younger brother a lot. Unlike women, men were less expressive when showing their love.

I prayed their bond remained the same till the end.

“From tomorrow onwards, I will start your training to bring your wolf out.” He spoke after I was done telling him what Oracle told me about how my wolf may or may not come out. “So, you really think

While I was returning to my room, Raya crossed my way like a black cat, spewing

nonsense.

“Thank you for telling me that I have a beautiful face,” I said with a smile, adding fuel to her anger. I was about to leave

when she grabbed my arm and made me stand where I was, using her strength.

“Don’t disrespect me, human. It won’t take me a second to break your n*eck.”

“Go ahead. I want to see you try. Now, let go of my arm, or I will tell Tristan how his would- be Luna is treated by a guest in his own pack.” I made fun of her by calling her a guest, which she practically was.

If looks could kill, then I would have been dead by now.

“Didn’t you hear what Lady Brielle said?” I heard a loud

and powerful voice, and within seconds, Raya left my arms. I

rubbed my arms softly because of the pain that this wild cat had given me.

“Ezeee!! Did you hear what she said? She is not the Luna of the pack yet, and she called me a guest.” I pressed my l*ps tightly, watching her cling to my

mate’s arms like a child throwing a tantrum.

“I don’t think she said anything wrong. You’re not family anymore, Raya. Not after breaking up with my brother,” Ezekiel said, grabbing her perfectly manicured hand into his. I couldn’t see this

anymore. I didn’t know their equation, but watching him

I turned my heels to leave when I heard a bone–cracking sound followed by Raya’s scream. I turned around only to find that Ezekiel had broken her wrist, with which she had grabbed my arms tightly.

Ezekiel had a maniac look on his face before he spoke, “You shouldn’t have touched her.”
