"Eloise Anthony, I Ainsley Williams the Alpha of the Litha Night Walker pack, reject you as my mate. From this moment onward I sever the moon goddess fate and bond between us. You are hereby denied the opportunity of being my mate." He paused and looked at her "A scheming and a murderer like you deserve nothing but death" She looked at him and the bitterness in her throat growing every second. "I, Eloise Anthony, the daughter of Golden Moon Pack Alpha refused your rejection Alpha Ainsley Williams" She's all yours now, do whatever you want with her." I curled up on the ground, listening as the man in front of me, Alex, the Beta of the Litha Night Walker Pack, gave his final orders to the Scamp. "You'll experience the same pain and humiliations my sister Aura experienced," he said, looking at me with a dark intensity, his tone tinged with a hint of bloodthirsty emotion. "Aura my little sister was a sweet girl. She's never been to a pub or entered the Scamp Forest alone. But now she was found raped and murdered there. Your mate, Alpha Ainsley, and I went through Aura's phone, and we found out that right before the accident, you called her. The last message on her phone was to you. Where were you, Eloise?" As Alex stared at me, his eyes were filled with hatred and killing intent.
"She's all yours now. Do whatever you want with her."

"Aura, my little sister, was a sweet girl. She's never been to a pub or entered the Scamp Forest alone. But now she was found ra*ed and murdered there. Your mate, Alpha Ainsley, and I went through Aura's phone, and we found out that right before the accident, you called her. The last message on her phone was to you. Where were you, Eloise?" As Alex stared at me, his eyes were filled with hatred and killing intent.
"Alex, I am in need of your attention. I am not responsible for the death of Aura. I have an important message to convey to Alpha Ainsley. Please listen to me." I pleaded and he looked at me with a mocking smile.
"Shut up! You have no right to speak his name!" He loomed over me, his gaze making me feel like I was nothing but trash. Behind him, five Scamps were shining with excitement, their eyes fixed on me as if they had found their prey. I knew I had to fight for my life, or I would be torn apart the second Alex left. "My father is the Alpha of the Golden moon Pack and I'm only here to see Alpha Ainsley. Are you trying to break the peace between the packs?" I shouted behind him, but he looked at me and scoffed.
"You fuc*ing bi*ch, you're stupid! Don't you realize that you're Alpha Ainsley's mate and that he can sense that you're here and also in danger? My innocent sister, You got her killed just because you were jealous of Alpha Ainsley's love for her. Listen Eloise Alpha Ainsley wants to kill you more than I do!" He turned back towards his home without even glancing at me, leaving me alone in the woods. The five Scamps no longer held back, rushing towards me, tearing my clothes apart. As the daughter of the Alpha of the Golden moon Pack, I have always received excellent combat training. Normally, five Scamps wouldn't pose much of a threat to me. However, after three days and nights of torture without food or water, I was completely weak and didn't have the strength to fight them off. I fought with all my might against the five Scamps, yearning for my mate, Alpha Ainsley, to sense the danger I was in and to rescue me. But he didn't show up. At that moment, I couldn't help but wonder if everything was truly orchestrated by my mate. Was he incapable of killing me himself, so did he send others to humiliate me?
"Ah!"
My vision was becoming increasingly blurry, my body engulfed in unbearable pain. It felt as if my feet were heavy as stones, becoming impossible to lift. At that moment, one of the Scamps grabbed my wrist, his jagged, untrimmed nails digging deep into my flesh, drawing a long line of blood from my wrist. Before I could react, another rough, calloused hand squeezed my neck tightly. A Scamp grabbed me from behind, holding me firmly and immobilizing me. Hot breath sprayed the main artery in my neck.
I knew the enemy's fangs were dangerously close to my most vulnerable spot. The third Renegade stepped forward and grabbed my legs, pulling hard. I was stretched out on the ground, my legs spread wide by them. They had lustful smiles on their faces. I struggled desperately, but I was weak, and with each attempt to break free, the Renegade's nails stuck on my wrist deeper.
The fourth Scamp couldn't wait any longer and quickly pulled off his pants, exposing his grotesque manhood in front of me. As my legs were held by two more Scamps, he approached me, moistening his disgusting erection with saliva before moving towards my lower body. I gave up my last fight with a bitter smile.
Aura, you were dead and I became a killer... - I don't know how you died, but evidently, you were luckier than me. Your brother loved you, and Ainsley loved you too...
The world before my eyes plunged into darkness, and I felt the nauseating breath of the Scamp approaching. Just as the Renegade touched my skin, I suddenly felt the strength drain from my neck, wrists, and legs. They all released their hold on me, and I lay sprawled on the ground, staring blankly at the sky, unable to comprehend what had just happened.
It wasn't until I heard a set of footsteps... They were firm and merciless, like the strikes of a death knell. Then, I smelled the most pleasant scent in the air. I recognized it immediately. Then, a pair of black leather ankle boots appeared before my eyes. It had been raining all day, but there was not a hint of dirt on this pair of boots. I immediately recognized who it was, Alpha Ainsley, my mate.
My mind went blank with a single question on my mind is that Death or my salvation approaching?
Ainsley's POV
"Get away from me"
These were the sound I heard as I stood on the watchtower of the Pack House staring into the distance. This is where the guards patrol to watch the borders, allowing a view of all the boundaries of the Litha Night Walker Pack, including the Forest of Shadows. I couldn't tell how long I had been standing there.
I watched as the woman in the distance continued to kick and push the Scamp that approached her, but they continued to attack relentlessly. Despite her small body frame, she fought like a lion. No Scamp could get close to her. She was the daughter of the Alpha and she upheld her honour. One after another, they were taken down by her.
"Alpha Ainsley, I have brought Eloise to the Forest of Shadows as per your orders"
My Beta, Alex, spoke as he returned to my side he stood silently as we both watched the ongoing battle in the distance.
"The Alpha of the Golden moon Pack wishes to speak with you my Alpha"
I waved my glass. Hearing Alex's words, I looked away from Eloise.
"Inform the Alpha of the Golden moon Pack that he must choose between Eloise and his pack. If he wants to keep his pack intact, then his daughter Eloise must leave." All I could think of at that moment was the pain and humiliation Aura must have passed through.
"Then tell the werewolf college to cancel Eloise's degree. Then, she won't be able to get a decent job in human society; she will be employed with a high school diploma. And," I looked at my glass, "Send her to the prison." Alex was shocked by my words. He raised his head and said, "Alpha Ainsley?"
"She killed our girl, so I'm sending her to prison for three years. Beta Alex, don't you agree with me? I decided to send Eloise to prison for three years. She had no right to aspire to be my Luna, let alone harm the woman I loved. Although the current evidence may not be enough to prove Eloise's guilt, I believe she is the one who killed Aura."
She deserves to die from any perspective. It's just that my wolf is constantly howling in my mind, begging me not to harm her mate. Otherwise, I would personally kill her.
"No, Alpha Ainsley, you did the right thing. "Thank you." Alex's eyes suddenly turned red, and he began to cry.
"If it weren't for you, Eloise wouldn't have been punished for what she did to Aura."
"She's from another pack, so I can't do anything about it."
I turned to the window. Eloise seemed to have lost much of her strength, her body was swaying, and I could clearly feel her growing weak. I watched as a Scamp grab her hand and another sneak up behind her, I felt a suffocating sensation, and my wolf began to grow restless. "Save her! "She's our girl!" My wolf howled loudly in my mind, relentlessly trying to take control of my body to save Eloise.
However, as I witnessed her legs being forced apart by two Scamps, my gaze darkened. I drank the rest of the liquor and looked at the Beta standing beside me. "Beta Alex, I'm doing this not because Aura is your sister, but because Aura is the woman I love." I spoke word for word, and once I was done, I knew there was something I needed to address... Arriving at the Forest of Shadows, the woman before me lay naked on the ground, her petite body intact. The power of the bond made me want to tear the Scamp apart. She stared blankly at the sky, but her eyes lit up again only when she saw me.
"Alpha Ainsley... please listen to me..." Eloise muttered in a low, almost inaudible voice.
"What have you done to Aura?" I looked at her blood-stained face and asked. "I... didn't... kill... her..." Eloise whispered. She said stubbornly and looked at me straight in her eyes. I pinched her chin. After losing my beloved, I wanted to shatter the pride in her eyes. "You didn't kill her." But you lured her into the Forest of Shadows and revealed her whereabouts to the Scamp. They came and took turns to rape her before strangling her to death. That's what you did to her, wasn't it? Eloise shook her head violently. Blood and tears were streaming down her head. Some of them landed on my fingers. I pulled my fingers away and pulled out a handkerchief to wipe it off.
"I understand that you have feelings for me, Miss Anthony..." "...But I never expected you to love me enough to have Aura killed." I continued my monologue. "You really are special. "I shouldn't have underestimated you."
"No... It's not like that..." Eloise tried to open her mouth to scream, but ended up choking on her own blood. I grabbed her by the shoulders. My fingers dug into her flesh like two huge pincers. "You're trapped by me now. Tell me, Miss Anthony. What do you think I'll do with you?" Touching her body almost felt like setting myself on fire. I couldn't control myself, damned mate bond! Like floods breaking through the dam, like rain falling to the ground. No one could sever the connection between two werewolves. Eloise raised her head, not knowing what would happen next. I leaned forward, and my hand slid all the way down and grabbed her. "You really are a despicable woman, aren't you?" I voiced. "You like this, don't you?"
"Please don't... Don't do this to me..." she moaned in shame. "Your body tells a different story," I said in a cold and dispassionate voice.
"You desire this. "You crave this so much that you would rather kill an innocent girl." I squeezed so hard that she screamed in pain. "You disgust me."
I looked into her eyes and spoke out each word. "It should have been you." Hearing those words, she stared at me, her face filled with shock. "The one who should be killed is you, Eloise Anthony."
