1.1 Made You Alphat
1: I Made You Alphal
- Alpha Kavriel Alister of Ashfall Pack, reject you, Iris Hawthorne, as my mate and Lama,” he declared, his voice echoing through the hall of people My heart seized in disbelief. I gazed up at him from the floor, my chest right with a mixture of shock and pain. His eyes were filled with cold undifference that clashed with the emotion rewritten all over my face.
“Kavriel… I managed to unter, my voice trembling as my palms grew clammy. “What…”
But before I could finish, a familiar figure strode onto the dais and into Kaynel’s embrace. With venomous green eyes and a crown of red curls, it was Lyra – my stepsister.
“Stepsister…” I whispered, sinuggling to comprehend what was happening. The pieces of the puzzle eluded me, leaving me hewildered and hurr
At that moment, I watched as the man I loved pressed his lips to my stepsister’s, my heart shattering into a million pieces. The pain was unbearable as he tore my heart from my chest and trampled on it without a second thosight,
When their kiss finally ended, Kavnel tumed to face the crowd, a glint of satisfaction in his blue eyes. “I choose Lyra Hawthome as my mate and Luna, he declared.
The hall fell into a stunned silence, the pulse of it almost tangible. Then, as if on cur, cheers erupted from the onlookers and guests, celebrating my despair. They reveled in my agony, their jubilation like a knife twisting in my already wounded heart. And then, all eyes turned to me, a silent condemnation in their gaze
I looked up at Kavriel, hoping that I could get answers. Today was supposed to turn out differently. Today, on the night of the sixth full moon of the year. The night of the mating banquet. Kavriel was supposed to announce me formally as his mate and Luna. We already had the bond marks engraved by the goddess herself on our backs. I was his mate, I was to be his Luna. But everything had gone horribly wrong.
What about my sacrifices? What about what I had to give up for him to become Alphat Now, he had chosen someone else. And of all people, my sepsister.
Kavriel read

confusion and I watched him roll his eyes. “Iris, do you wish not to accept your Alplu’s rejection?” He asked his voice hard.
−1_1_1__” I stammered, unable to form a tangible statement in the face of his coldness towards me.
“You are as dense as you are wolfless,” came a side comment from Kavnel. his lips curling into a bitter sneer that almost made me reel back. I felt my knees buckle beneath me. I would fall.
“Did you really think I would choose you to be a Luna of a pack?” He questioned.
“Wolfless, powerless and without a goddess–bestowed gift?” It was Lyra who spoke this time. Her green eyes gleamed with malicious delight as she stepped forward, her hand intertwined with Kavriel’s. “You are nothing. Iris. You are not worthy of a throne by the Alpha”
The weight of her words crashed over me like a tidal wave, leaving me gasping for air. Betrayal, humiliation, and devastation swirled within me. threatening to consume every fiber of my bring
“Lloved you,” I whispered, my voice barely audible over the din of the crowd. “I trusted you. After everything, …”
Kavriel paled to the shade of paper as he knew what I was about to reveal to the members of the pack, Just then, a hand came to cover my mouth.
By the roughness with which the hand forced me not to speak, I knew who it was. “You will utter not a single word. Unless it is an acceptance of the Alpha’s rejection. He whispered harshly in my car.
Tears pricked my eyes. “Father.” I mumbled against his hand.
“It does not man
not matter whatever you think you might have done, your sister will become Luna. So keep your wits about yourself and submit to the
rejection.”
I could feel the piercing gazes of the hundreds of onlookers as they witnessed my humiliation. I knew my father favored his mistress’s daughter, but to take it to this level was a new extreme.
My father forced me to my knees.
“She is ready to accept the rejection now, Alpha,” he assured the guests. “Aren’t you, my daughter!”
I gulped, my tongue feeling heavy in my mouth. But I knew by now that there was no point. My tears fell, salty streams down my face. “L, Iris Hawthorne, accept you, Alpha Kavriel’s rejection as your mate and Luna.” There was a burning ache on the spot of my bond mark. 1ew that the goddess was erasing it. The bond had been broken. I had lost Kayriel to my stepsister forever,
Without a second word, I got on my feet and raced out of the great hall and straight back to my chambers. I heard the celebrations go on after my exit as if nothing had happened. Like my life had not come crashing down.
My tears fell freely as 1 sobbed. Everything I had worked and loved for had been pulled from my grasp. And I was left with nothing but an empty void that threatened to eat me alive. Hours went by in a flurry of weeping and heartache as the banquet went on
Then the door of my clumber suddenly opened. I did not need light to know who had just stepped in. I knew his steps just as well as I knew my own
muther’s scENL
“Iris,” Kavriel said as he walked towards me.
I could not bear to look at him. I wished to summon anger, but a wave of despair washed over me and I wanted nothing more than to curl up and

He sat by me on the bed. “What you almost del was unacceptable”
Trumed incredulously in his direction. His features hardened with lamh lines of anger.
I was the one who had been cheated and betrayed, but he was the only infuriated
“Just because you found a cure for the fever does not mean you should try and disgrace me or my reign.” He retorted.
His starp tone made me flinch. “I did not find a cure, and you know that, I used my blond. I almost died!” I raised my voice higher than intended. “It was my blood that cured the park members of the fever. Yet, I let you take credit for what I did because I love you. They made you Alpha because of me. I made you Alplint”
Kavriel slapped me just as the words fell out of my mouth. “Watch your fucking tone with me. I am your Alphat” He screamed in my face
