The She-Devil And Her Alphas-Chapter 7 - Seven : Male Lead, Is That You? - 3

She tumbled into the pack house , eyes wearily searching for some figure until it locked unto her target. Swiftly, She approached him.

"I lost Daniel " She said bowing her head in shame

"What do you mean you lost him! " Ryan growled .

"He suddenly leaped off and ended up tricking me off his tail as if he had a mind of his own " She explained but Ryan stared at her in disbelief.

"That's impossible. He's in his cursed week and still in his primitive form " He muttered trying to think of a cogent reason that'll explain all this.

Daniel was the Alpha of the silver pack and Ryan was his Beta and also the leader of the silver guards. The only reason he had left Daniel to be taken care of by one of his promising disciple was so he could resolve some issues in the pack. But it seems he overestimated her abilities.

"Judith " he called, his voice low and grim as she bowed her head further. she could feel his dominance aura oozing off him urging her to submit.

Even though Ryan might not be an alpha but a Beta, he's the second in command and second most dominant while she's an ordinary Delta, third in command and in training for the Beta position, so she couldn't fight off his Aura.

She found herself kneeling before him, eyes lowered. It's seen as a disrespect or a challenge looking straight in the eyes of a werewolf higher than you in rank most especially Alphas and Betas.

"Assemble the elite fighters, you know how dangerous he is in his cursed week and the repercussion we would suffer if he harms any local in little Town, cause the council won't be lenient with him when it involves the death of a human "

Judith blinked, not sure what she was hearing. She had expected him to punish or scold her for failing her tasks, unexpectedly he showed her mercy.

"Yes, Beta Ryan " She answered gratefully, bowed and left in a hurry with the urge to prove her worth .

A smile tugged at his lips but he couldn't afford one at the moment. He knew Judith would get Daniel this time, the girl had a persistent and tough personality which was why he had taken her in as his Delta, his second in command.

Suddenly Ryan frowned, Daniel shook them off his tail?

That was more confusing unless.... his eyes widened at once, had Daniel found his mate?

The cursed week is a special curse placed by the moon goddess on all Alpha werewolf which happens once every three months. The curse causes all Alpha werewolf, both male and female to remain Stucked in their wolf form for four days unable to shift back to human.

In that state, the alpha werewolf becomes nothing but bloodthirsty savages.They have no sense of pack or loyalty as they lose complete control of themselves and the only thing on their minds is blood and killing.

That craze experienced in the cursed week was no different than the craze experienced by a newborn werewolf in transition but it was a bit different in the sense that the cursed week would involuntarily stop whenever an Alpha finds his mate.

This curse was initiated by the moon goddess during the "rejection zone " period. The "rejection zone " period was a time when there was a huge influx of Alphas rejecting their mates seeing them as nothing but their weakness and downfall.

It's a known fact that most Alphas are extremely aggressive, territorial, antagonist and cruel to their enemies . Infact centuries ago, there was an Alpha famed as the "Blood Alpha " who had a fetish of killing his enemies mate until fate played a cruel card on him. fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

Perhaps it was the moon goddess punishing him for his crimes but he never knew his own mate was beside him for a long time until he fell badly for her . Eventually left with no choice, he marked and bonded with her and that was when his enemies made their move.

They took his mate away , ravished and killed her before he could come to her rescue. The death of his mate devastated him and for the first time ever, he felt the pain he inflicted on others and eventually ended his own life.

To a werewolf, a mate is like the other half of their soul and with time becomes the most important person in their life. Once marked and bonded, they become linked to each other for life. When one mate dies , the other doesn't actually die but the loneliness, emptiness and pain makes them wish for death . Sometimes the grief and agony drives them crazy in which they will need to be killed for other's safety.

So most Alphas preferred rejecting their True mates but instead relieve their loneliness and pleasures with a fill-in mate whom he or she has no strings attached to and can't be used against them.𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚
