Chapter 1: The Undoing
The crimson moon rises over the thick fog hovering over the forest exposing tall oak trees, a lattice of leaves. Branches creak as feet shuffle through fallen leaves. Alexandra Guerrero runs through the forest, screaming, peeking back every second as the White wolf chases her down, jumping above the fallen leaves, and attempts to grasp her but Alexandra pushes harder and faster, keeping her breath steady, and ducked around a rough tree bark, exhaling deeply.
She had never expected to go so fast without shifting, looking around as she slipped through the detritus, the trees creaking on the ground with each step. Alexandra steps out, her eyes roaming around unable to see through the shadow cast as the wind whistles in distance. Turning around, the wolf quickly pounces on her causing her to fall to the ground. Adams shifts back into human form, standing up, inhaling the warm breeze as it sinks through his skin.
"You cheated" Alexandra states, taking off her jacket extends it toward Adam.
"You are the one who decided to hide behind a tree"
Alexandra bites her lower lips "How did you find me?"
Gently lifting her jaw, Adam gazes into her hazel eyes, warmly, a lot of emotions run through his eyes. "I can find you anywhere, even in the dark. You seem to be forgetting you are my mate"
Alexandra blushes as the words replay over and over again in her head till she loses count. "I love you, Adam Hawthorn"
Adams smiles, leaning towards her, his warm breath fans her cheeks, Alexandra licks her lips, closing her eyes as Adams runs his index finger against her soft lips. "Did you do it? Did you ask the Narcos clan to support me?"
She opens her eyes, aware of what he was implying. "Yes I told you already"
"Are you certain?"
"Just trust me, Adams, I promise you that every single one of them is going to vote for you tomorrow once the ceremony begins. I know what this means for you"
"For us, it will strengthen our bond, our pack and you will finally be my Luna" Adams whispers, brushing his nose against her, Alexandra moans, she couldn't wait any longer to be next to him while they lead the pack.
"I love you, Adams, always and forever" engulfing him tightly, Alexandra gazes intently at the crimson moon with a lot of emotions running through her eyes, hoping for them to always be together.
The sunny midday calls to Alexandra like warning guilt of pleasure while the warming winds blow, tucking her hair behind her ear, Alexandra strolls around the hall looking stunning as the male wolves in the Guerrero pack gaze at her intently, hoping she was their mate but Alexandra only had eyes for Adams, and just in a moment, she was certain, no wolf would dare stare at her in such manner since she will be the Luna of the clan.
Lurking eyes with some Deltas standing around in the corner, Alexandra averts her eyes to Adams who was talking to a pack member, lurking eyes with him, she smiles and reclines in her seat aware that it was time.
Gazing at Adam as he walks to stand in front of the pack, Alexandra's face lit up, although not fazed for she had expected him to become the next Alpha of the Guerrero clan. Her heart skips as Adam advances towards her, she had imagined this day and now it has arrived, Alexandra couldn't help but get a little nervous, she was going to be his Luna and together they were going to lead the pack. Lurking eyes with him as he draws nearer, Adams could hear the thumping beat of her heart, gazing at her intently, he smirks, walks past her, turns around, and strolled back to stand before the people.
Alexandra smiles, uncertain what was running through his mind, but pushes the thought aside, without a doubt he wanted to save it for the last moment.
Adams puts his hands into his pocket. "As your new Alpha, I want to say thank you for allowing me to lead this pack. I give you my words that as your Alpha, I stand to do right by your side"
The pack members Cheers, applauding.
"Which Is why as your Alpha, I vow to protect this pack, our people from the dark forces that attack us"
The pack members began to murmur, glancing around, fear engulfing them.
"You don't have to be afraid since I have apprehended those people who would terrify this town, they cursed ones who pose a threat to our community and pack" Adams lurks eyes with Alexandra and she smiles widely, dropping his gaze, he looks towards the entrance door.
Bewildered, Alexandra gawks at him, catching a glimpse of the Narcos clan fastened to each other in chains, beaten up and led inside, by his Beta and a sorceress. Startled, Alexandra gawks at Adams, unable to get her feet moving. "These cursed people cause ruin in our town and I must execute them so that they cannot cause further harm to us. Most of you have lost children, daughters, or your mate without health reasons, it is their doing. They contaminate our community and if we let them live then every single one of us may die"
Fear grips the pack members, Adams smiles, certain he got them where he wanted. Without hesitation, he jabs a sword into the teenage boy and Alexandra screams rushing towards him, attempting to hold him but his Beta grips her arm, she strives to break away but couldn't as the Beta tightens his grip.
Blood splashes across Alexandra's face as she continues to scream, weeping until there was no more air in her lungs. She shivers gazing at Adams slaughtering all members of the Narcos werewolves, her heart squeezes bleeding as it beats, dropping her gaze, her eyes fall on Olivia Guerrero standing with her mother Veronica and Bernard watching the scene in silence with a triumphant smirk glued to their faces.
Alexandria had never imagined he would kill her mother's people, she had expected it from her stepmother and sister but never from Bernard, and especially not Adam for she loved him.noveldrama
"Why?" Alexandra yells, breaking away, holding his arms, and staring into his
eyes Adam gazes back for a moment and shoves off her arms.
He smirks. "Alexandra Guerrero, what do I do with you now?"
Startled, Alexandra inhales trying to hold the pain creeping into her heart.
"What?"
"I have no use for you anymore. How do I put it?" He feigns to be in thought for a moment "Ah! You're irrelevant to me" he gazes at the pack. "You people know that I'm supposed to take her as my Luna but unfortunately I can't. Here I am, standing before the Guerrero pack and stating that I Alpha Adams Hawthorn reject Alexandra Guerrero as his mate and Luna"
As the words roll out of his mouth, Alexandra feels a sword pass through her chest, shattering her heart to pieces, the words echo in her ears with tears brimming down her cheeks, Alexandra gazes at him as he walks towards Olivia and takes her as his Luna.
Alexandra opens her mouth, attempting to speak but couldn't find the right words, an excruciating pain surge through her abdomen winces realizing that their bond has been broken, and falls to the ground, groaning in pain, stares at Adam and Olivia receiving Bernard and Veronica's blessing for a moment.
"Alexandra Guerrero is from the bloodline of the cursed ones"
The pack members gasp, bewildered, they had never imagined Alexandra could hurt a fly since she was so innocent, and had a big heart of gold.
"She carries their blood in her vein, if we let her live, she will bring calamity to our town"
The pack members move away from her, glaring at her, they howl striving to control their wolf from ripping her head out.
"As your Alpha, you have my words that I will protect this pack" Adams glances at the sorceress, she walks closer to Alexandra and grips her face but Alexandra shoves her hand away, attempting to stand when a Beta and Delta grab her, pinning her against the ground, the sorceress craves a hexagram on her forehead, Alexandra screams aware of the repercussions.
She struggles, trying to break away, but they tighten their grip around her while the witch enchants loudly provoking a light wind to blow, the sky darkens and a blood moon appears. Alexandra weeps, feeling slightly weak as her wolf departs her body. The Beta and Delta loosen their grip as the sorceress halts, stepping aside.
Adam walks towards Alexandra, lifting her jaw, he smirks. "Now you are nothing" "Why? I loved you, I...I... we are mates, there was a ceremony"
He whispers. "I only choose you as my mate because of the Alpha position, now that I'm the Alpha, what good are you to me? You're a leech, an ant, I want to purge out of the surface of this earth"
Olivia lowers down, gazing into Alexandra's eyes, and whispers. "This was the plan all along, if only you weren't so foolish in love then you would have noticed you have been a puppet all this while "
"Liar" Alexandra whispers
Olivia scoffs. "You have always been stupid and naive, that's why you didn't even notice who was the mastermind all along, Father Dearest or you don't believe me"
Dropping her gaze, Alexandra lurks eyes with Bernard, and a rush of anger runs through her vein, averting her eyes back to Olivia.
"Your father was the one who planned to have your mother's clan wiped out. What was that he said again? She feigns to be in thought for a moment "Right! He said Your mother's bloodline must be stopped at all costs, they must not be allowed to continue. You know that your marriage to Adams was dependent on your father yet you still doubt it. This is why you're so stupid and gullible"
Alexandra sobs. "Is it true Adams?"
"Do you also know why I can't stand you, Alexandra? You are pretty stupid, the truth stare right into your eyes yet you ask questions. You're pathetic and useless, this is why I can't even make you my Luna. No! I won't even make you my Luna if you are the last female wolf in the universe" He stands up walking towards Bernard. Olivia gestures towards the sorceress to carry on. Alexandra molds her fist tightly and clenches her jaw, a surge of adrenaline rush through her and she stands up, attempts to attack Adam but couldn't since she has no strength left in her, staggers back, trying to hold her balance, the sorceress takes out a dark dagger forged with magic and jabs into Alexandra's heart. She screams as excruciating pain burns through her skin, ripping her heart apart.
Alexandra gasps, gazing into Bernard's eyes for a moment as the sorceress enchants breaking her bones with magic, she averts her eyes at Olivia and Veronica, they smirk triumphantly. Alexandra shivers, her body aches, and gazes at Adams, a lot of memories flood her mind causing her to smile. The witch takes out another dagger enchanting for a moment and slits her throat. Alexandra gawks intently at Adams, his eyes cold and unblinking, she falls to the ground with thoughts of revenge slipping her through the darkness
