Third Person's POV
The church was full of crowds, elegant, luxurious venue.
Cameras never stopped flashing, visitors who never stopped smiling and laughing while talking. The elegant white dresses they wear and the supreme black suit of men; seems like the venue is full of rich, sumptuous with money people.
Talking, and smiling with classiness. Everyone is waiting for the bride. They can't enough of excitement seeing the handsome groom who can't hide his nervousness. At last he and his beloved is about to be wed.
However, not far away from the church is a group of men wearing bonnets and black tops and shorts, investigating the whole place.
Two men were inside the car; one sitting in the driver's seat and one in the passenger seat.
"I thought this place is private, why there are so many people?" asked the one who uses binoculars, sitting in the passenger seat.
"What do you expect with rich people," said the one who is holding a walkie-talkie, "much more like boasting their feast with plasticity. Seeing how they smile like they aren't having an argument behind the cameras."
The man nodded as he agreed. "Yeah, you're right."
Two black cars with no plate numbers are hiding behind the bushes. Five men were hiding near the venue, with guns in its sheath, hidden behind their backs.
The man in the driver's seat uses his walkie-talkie. "Code R.A, what do you see?"
[The groom is here. The bride is nowhere to be found,] said from a walkie-talkie.
A man with his elegant suit camouflaged with the crowd. His handsome face will never notice his excellent hiding. He is tall and seems like a rich person who is in famous magazines of billionaires.
He hid his walkie-talkie in his pocket and tries to walk onto the group of teenage girls.
"Yes, girls, I can't imagine how handsome the groom is!"
"Well, Ms. Scott is beautiful enough to be future Armenez. Just imagine their kids will look-Oh my God!"
The man acted like he didn't see the group of girls and bumped into one of them.
"I'm so sorry, beautiful ladies. I didn't see you."
The girls gasped and hid their giggles seeing how handsome the man is.
"It's alright, mister. You look so great in your suit," the girl said, before smiling. "Looking for something...or... someone?"
"Ah, yeah, I'm looking for my brother. I'm sure he's around here somewhere and clinging to every girl."
"Want me to accompany...you?" the girl hinted with hope.
The man smiled. "No, thank you. I just wanted to ask him if I can go home already. I think the bride is taking so long. When will she arrive?"
"Oh! Yeah! Ms. Scott is nearby already. Don't worry! I heard his Father talking to her on the phone. She'll be here soon."
The man smiled, before secretly gripping his hand. "Thank you. I got to go. Bye."
"Bye!"
As the man walked toward the exit, his face turned gradually fierce. He took a secret glance at the man hiding in the bushes and nods. He walks towards the part of the venue with no people and then turned on his walkie-talkie.
"Get ready. They're coming," he said, before walking towards the black car without people noticing him.
~~
Not later than that, a white car arrived. The crowd was escorted to go inside the church, and after then they closed the door. Finally, the bride is here.
The wedding ceremony will begin.
She was escorted towards the door. She is beautiful with her white tube gown, pearl necklace, and earrings. Bun brown hair with light make up. She doesn't need any make up though; her bare face is enough to turn a man's head.
The man notices how the bride looks so beautiful. She is like a goddess. This is the first time he stared at a woman for too long. He can't her eyes off her as if his world zooms in the bride's face to his vision. Everything around her became blurry, and his eyes only focus on her beauty.
Her hands are shaking, she breathes using her mouth, and her chest moves heavy; nervousness envelops her system. She forced a smile and enters the door.
"Code R. A. Are you listening?"
The man was brought back to his senses; he stared at the bride for too long and did not notice that the bride was already inside. He put on his bonnet after changing his clothes.
He cocked his gun. "Let's move," he ordered.
Men with bonnets started to move like a sneaking ninjas.
They are going to kidnap the bride.
~~
The bride is slowly walking down the aisle together with his father, who definitely she took upon her beauty. She looked at the crowd wearing their smile and teary eyes; shouting for congratulations as she, as a Scott is now turning into Armenez.
This wedding isn't occurring because of a family business matter. It is between the love and affection of the two couples who were in love for years. And now, they are happily turning their dreams of becoming one, oath in front of the church witnessed by many people who admire them.
Everything was perfect, not until...
As the bride reached her groom who's now teary-eyed, a flashing bomb tremble outside the church; then, a group of men wearing their bonnets enters with their guns pointing at the crowds.
Panic and chaos win as they started firing their guns at the ceiling. The goal was to capture the bride and run away.
Two men grab the bride away from the groom.
"DON'T TOUCH HER!!" One man with a bonnet grip the bride's neck and pointed a sharp knife. "STAY AWAY FROM HER! LEAVE HER ALONE!-ARGH!!"
"LEAVE MY DAUGHTER AWAY!!"
Men with bonnets punch and kick the groom's tummy, together with punching the bride's father.
"NO!" the bride shouted with a loud cry. The bride struggles with the men's grip on her arms. "Get off me!"
But, one man smack her neck using the gun he was holding; though he was a bit amused with her fragile neck for a bit. The bride passed out and carried her like a sack of rice.
"I, Alpha Miller, hereby reject you, Isla Higgins, as my mate and Luna of the Pembroke pack," he said with a smirk as his beta pinned me against the wall. My heart shattered into a thousand pieces, and I felt a physical ache in my body as pain penetrated through me. “There is no competition here.” Mora, the girl who had made my life hell since childhood, wrapped herself around my fated mate, and he pulled her into his chest, kissing her with passion and lust. I glared at her in frustration and wished I could punch her fake image. Isla decides to leave the pack after the humiliating rejection and the betrayal.

My birth brought death to my mother, and my father grew to hate me for it, leaving me vulnerable to the abuse of my stepmother and stepsister. My mere appearance served as a constant reminder to my stepmother of the woman my father once loved the most - my mother. Consumed by jealousy, she relentlessly sought to destroy my life, but will she succeed? "Sign this contract, become my Luna, and after the contract term ends, you will receive generous rewards and freedom." "What do I need to do during the contract? Sleep with you?" "You just need to play the role of my Luna. We will only pretend to be a couple in public, and there's no need for marking each other," "It seems arrogance is indeed a common trait among every Alpha," "What?" "Alpha Logan, what makes you think I would readily accept your proposal?" I continued, my voice now laced with a mix of anger and defiance. "Just because I'm a wolf-less unwanted daughter? Or do you think you're so noble and handsome that I should be grateful and accept your offer for a large sum of money?" "I didn't mean it like that," he stumbled. I once thought the man who saved me was just an insignificant nobody, but little did I know he was the most ruthless Alpha on the entire continent, responsible for killing his own Mate. What stunned me was that he wanted me to become his Luna?!
"I, Gabriel Foster of the Nightfall Pack, hereby announce that my fated mate Raine will be joining our pack. I hope that everyone will treat both Raine and Luna Elena with equal respect in the future." My husband Gabriel had announced in front of all of our pack members on our third wedding anniversary that he had found his fated mate. I stared blankly at the two figures cuddled up in the center of the hall as a wave of numbness washed over me and I listened to all of the members of the pack congratulating them wholeheartedly. Gabriel's so-called Fated Mate, Raine, feigning innocence and vulnerability, handed me a glass of wine. But that glass of wine took my life! Yet, the Moon Goddess decided my story wasn't over. She granted me a second chance. This time, I am determined to peel back the mask of that bitch and make Gabriel experience a regret so profound it will be his living torment!
I yearned to be acknowledged as a deserving Luna, even though the entire pack never addressed me as such. Nevertheless, I persevered, striving for their respect. Within each pack, leaders must earn the pack's allegiance rather than coerce it. Hence, I continued to push myself beyond the limits I had never before explored. Yet, despite my relentless efforts, I was deceived and betrayed. My so-called mate, Brett, and my supposed best friend, Jennifer, shattered my trust. We grew up without parents, but I cared for Jennifer as a sister would. Nevertheless, she plunged a metaphorical knife into my back. Now and future, never again will I allow anyone to exploit my vulnerability, I will reclaim my standing.
"Mason, I want to cut all ties with you. No marriage and no bond. We're done," "You want a rejection?" "I know that you have never loved me, Mason... It would be better that we were both free to pursue our own interests." "Freedom? Willow, freedom is a privilege that only good and innocent people have the luxury of. You are neither of those things so what makes you think that I should let you go free?" He sneered. "What do you mean?" I said as my brows creased in confusion. "Isn't it fucking obvious?" Mason mocked as he cracked his knuckles in his hands, "Your parent's hands are stained with the blood of my parents, you don't deserve to be free whilst you atone for their sins?" *** Throughout my year of marriage, I have constantly suffered from the pain of Mate Bond. My mate would sleep with various she-wolves but never spare me a glance. He would allow his lovers to mock and insult me, his wife, his Luna, and he did it all just to inflict pain on me. I couldn't bear it any longer, so I asked to end the relationship, but he refused. Just when I felt pain and confusion, a powerful Lycan King appeared...
"I should have known you were like this, Olivia. You're so... disgusting, I think it's time for us to end," "No, Lucas, no..." Lucas looked at me coldly and said the words that broke my heart, "I, Lucas Mason of Shadowclaw Pack, reject you, Olivia Furlong of Bloodmoon Pack." "You are no longer my Luna," Lucas said, turning and leaving. I looked helplessly at the door, tears blurring my vision. *** My marriage was the outcome of a Pack alliance, and though Lucas and I weren't Fate Mates, our life together was fairly content. However, on the day of our wedding anniversary, I was framed for infidelity, and Lucas was furious to reject me. As I left, bewildered and heartbroken, I unexpectedly ran into my stepsister, revealing her as the mastermind behind it all. She ruthlessly plunged a silver dagger into me and I died in pain. But the story didn't end there. The Moon Goddess granted me a second chance! This time, I won't allow my stepsister's schemes to succeed, nor will I ever let myself get close to Lucas again. Little did I know that this new life would be filled with unexpected twists and turns...
