Got what you wanted
For the first time in his life, he wished he wasn’t a werewolf or born into the biggest pack. Maybe he would have been living happily with Ellie.
He entered the room; he was not expecting to see the elders from his packs and also from other packs. Without caring about the men in the room, he turned to his men behind him, “Help Mrs. Warren out of the house.”
“Alpha, this is wrong. You can’t send her out of the supreme.” One of the men spoke, but Alex did not say anything to him. He watched as his men went behind his mother.
“What do you think you’re doing? How dare you try to send me out of my house because of a useless half-human?!” Madeline screamed, but instead of answering, Alex asked back.
“What did her parents ever do to you? Why are you so wicked that the only thing you could think of was to kill innocent beings?”
“Kill? You think I killed her parents?! Even if I were the one who killed them, I wouldn’t think twice before killing them. Her mother did something unforgiving; she took a weak human as a mate, and what happened to her was nothing but karma!” Madeline screamed again.
Alex could not say a word to her other than to sigh. He walked towards Gabriel, who was just standing quietly in the room, and asked, “Why?”
The man was taken off guard. He felt his hands and feet suddenly get cold. He looked at Madeline before taking his gaze back to Alex. “Why… what?”
“Why is it forbidden? Why can’t a human and a wolf be together? Tell me, Gabriel. Maybe I should see the reason from your own perspective.” He asked, staring deep into the man’s eyes.
“Um. Humans are not strong like werewolves.” The man replied with sweat on his forehead. He looked so scared as he talked.
“Strong enough to do what?” Alex asked sharply, but the man could not say a word. He turned back to his mother and said, “I’m not here to have any discussion with any of you.”
“The former Luna of the Bluemoon Pack will leave the Supreme today until I think of a suitable punishment for her. There will be no killing of half-humans again. Wolves are now allowed to mate with any creature they want, and no one, I repeat, no one shall question my authority.” He said with no emotion on his face.
“Alpha.” One of the men called out, but he quickly kept quiet when he saw the anger on his face.
“I hope you’re all happy. You got what you wanted. Now you won’t have a human like your Luna.” He knew that there was nothing that could bring the two of them close to each other again. Ellie must be blaming him and his family for her parents’ deaths. And he also understands the need to give her space, even if it means breaking the bond between them.
But he would never forgive his mother or pack for what they’d done to the half-humans.
He walked out of the room without looking back at his mother, who was screaming. “Alex, how can you do this to your mother? That human is trying to get you against your mother.”
“I can’t believe that the Alpha’s mate is a half-human. She’s even Aurora’s daughter, the only daughter of Ernest’s household in the moon crystal pack. A man said after Alex had left.
Wait. Speaking of the moon crystal pack, They are the ones said to be destined for a white wolf. And Aurora was the only daughter. A man gasped in shock.
“Does it mean that the half-human might have a white wolf in her?” One of the men asked. They kept whispering to themselves, but people in the room could hear them.
Madeline, who was sitting on the floor, suddenly stood up. “White wolf? That human cannot have a white wolf in her. No, that’s impossible.” She screamed at the men, making them keep quiet immediately.
Gabriel went towards her and said, “Great Luna. I think you should leave and have a good rest first. We’ll talk about this later.” He said this to her, but when he saw that she was about to scream again, he whispered softly into her ear. “Go for now. You shouldn’t humiliate yourself more.” He said this, only to find the woman nodding her head.
Alex’s men escorted Madeline out of the house. They didn’t allow her to take anything based on Alex’s orders.
Gabriel also had a lot on his mind. He couldn’t stop thinking about the possibility of the girl being a white wolf. “I can’t believe this.” He said it as he remembered something.

The next morning, Christina couldn’t sleep. She kept thinking about what had happened yesterday; it felt like a dream to her.
She didn’t feel like going to work that morning, but she knew she had to because of how she had called in sick yesterday without prior notice.
She checked her phone and saw that she was already running late. She pressed the elevator button, and it opened after some time, but a lot of people were there. “Oh my goodness!”
She kept pressing the button until another one came, but she couldn’t take a step forward because of the man standing inside the elevator, looking at her. She suddenly felt like a cold bucket of water had been poured on her. Her legs were trembling with fear; she moved back slowly before running to take the stairs.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Callum just kept standing like a statue until the elevator closed. He spent the whole night thinking about how to explain what she saw to her, but he couldn’t find any excuse other than to come clean. But he was not expecting to see her running away from him.
He had planned not to come to the office, but because of an important document that needed signing, he came, and because of the fact that he wanted to see Christina, he was disappointed.
Christina ran to her office. Her legs were in pain due to how she ran up the stairs from the first floor to the third floor. She did not know why her heart suddenly started beating fast when she saw Callum.
She had made up her mind to ask him maturely when she saw him, but she couldn’t even say a word before running away. She could still feel her cold hands and sweaty face. “How could you run away like that, Christina?” She ran her hands into her hair.
She kept thinking the whole day; she couldn’t even concentrate on her work. Finally, work finished, and she ran outside the office to go to Ellie’s house. She thought maybe talking to Ellie might help her, because she couldn’t stop thinking about what she had seen.
