Thelma's POV

"Wake up!" The silent voices echoed into my ears repeatedly, memories came flashing into my head as I wake up panting heavily.

I cleaned the beads of sweat from my face as I stared at my surroundings, "Where's this? Where am I?" I thought in confusion.

My thoughts were interrupted when Yvonne came in, that was when it clicked. I remembered it all. The memories and the pains screaming deep into my soul.

"I am reborn!" I whispered in shock, I quickly took the calender beside my bed checking the date, "Jan 5,2020." I exclaimed in shock.

"Why are you acting like you saw a ghost? Did you have a bad nightmare?" Yvonne came to my side, her worried face plastered on her face as she caressed my body.

"Stop..." I said gently but she didn't, "I said stop." I had no idea when I shouted. It was disturbing but now I saw through her fake facade, their fake facade.

Remembering what she said and what they did, I bolted my fist hard, I was angry, I am determined to make them all pay for what they did.

I looked up to see her staring at me shocked then her face turned teary, "Did I do anything wrong sis? You just shouted at me? Or don't you want me anymore?" She asked.

I can't let her know I was reborn or make her feel suspicious so I faked a smile pulling her close, "Why not? I am sorry, I just... you know, had a very terrible dream." I shrugged.

She nodded, I knew she wasn't very convinced judging by her expression so I added, "You know you are the best sister in the world and I love you so much." I pecked her on the cheek and she giggled.

She stood up excitedly, her smile bright on her face but I was empty, if it was before, I'll have been filled with joy but now all I could see was a facade.

A pretense that they all had while trying to use me, lure me as a prey that can be discarded when they are done.

"Guess what?" I cleared my throat as her voice bought me back to reality.

"What could that be?" I asked faking cluelessness, this was how she asked me to guess in the previous life, she informed me about how dad decided to pass down the Luna title to me and he'll be making Neon the alpha.

She looked around before gesturing for me to move closer as she whispered into my ear, "I overheard dad saying he want to crown you the next Luna to be for the pack, he'll announce Neon to be your alpha. Don't you think that's great."

I gasped, covering my mouth with my hand , "A joke?" I asked, she nodded negatively. I jumped up happily, "I'm so happy, I knew he'll come to accept Neon to be with me."

"Yes, you know how much dad loves you..." She paused as though she remembered something, "Oh my God, I forgot I have extra lessons again, mom will surely kill me." She exclaimed, I gestured for her to leave.

In the previous life, I stupidly thought she truly had extra lessons but I know she didn't, she must have gone to meet up with Neon but now, I'm not bothered with them because I have somewhere to be.

I stood up fully hurriedly dressing up into a simple black pant and crop top, before wearing my jacket then walked outside going towards dad suite.

I got there in no time and carefully opened the door a little bit, i know base on the sharp instinct of we werewolves, it wouldn't be long before they find out I'm there so I masked up my scent.

Mom voice was the first to come in, "What if she finds out about them? You know being a Luna gives her access to everything about the pack."

I was confused, which then was she talking about? "And that's why I wouldn't be announcing her as the Luna, I'll announce Neon as the alpha instead then announce her as his fiancé..." He paused. "It's up to him when to get married to her and do the proper rite and crown her as the Luna which wouldn't be happening."

I wonder how someone could be so cruel to their own daughter without blinking an eye. To the pack, I'm the most loved daughter of my parents but from the beginning, they only taught me how to become a great Luna and how to protect the pack, they've never really showered me with care like they did to Yvonne.

I was confused, I couldn't find anyone to answer my question no matter how many times I ask myself.

"We still have to be fast with it , she could find out she isn't..."

"She will never. If it wasn't because it's only her blood that can open the pack's core and make us the strongest pack, do you think I'll ever have to make her the Luna to be when our Yvonne is there."

I staggered backwards, my eyes teary, I still don't understand, why exactly do they hate me enough to want me dead.

"After we killed her parents, who could have expected they've put up a guard against us by making their only offspring the only one to open the pack core energy."

The new revelation made me gasped in shock, mg body colliding with the door, "They are not my parents."

That would explain my question but I still couldn't believe it, all my life, the same people I called mom and dad were the people who killed my real parents.

They were only with me for the pack's code and they never loved me, they were just... there. My tears trickled down my face.

Now it hurts more knowing the real reason why they were cruel enough to kill me without feeling remorseful or ahy regret.

I tried to support myself but ended up smashing the vase beside me, I panicked not knowing where to hide as I saw the two of them approaching the door.

Ohh gosh, what am I to do?

Thelma's POV

I tried to be neutral and act as though I just got here but it was not possible as to why I broke the vase.

My hands were getting sweaty and I knew I was nervous, it can be seen through me easily which would break my lies.

Just when I was confused on what to do, a pair of hands pulled me away leading to another room which I have no idea existed.

The wall closed on us leading to an underground, I looked up to see who it was and was met with a pair of blue eyes, cold yet enchanting and seductive.

"Have you seen enough?" He asked, I cleared my throat pulling away from him feeling awkward.

"Thanks." My voice came out inaudible, I can't believe I was lost staring at his eyes. He walked towards another side, with me walking behind.

He didn't say anything instead kept walking towards a direction, soon we got out, I realized the secret passageway lead outside the pack to the training ground.

He turned to face me, that was when I saw him clearly, Xavier.

Yvonne fiance that was ambushed in the past life, he was said to be her mate but I knew there were more to it now.

He was ambushed and overpowered when he went to save Neon in the past life, since tomorrow tonight was the night I'll be announced as the Luna to be.

Tonight is the night Yvonne will find out he was her mate, she came to meet me for help to cover up her scent which was weird because anyone will be happy to have found their mate.

He pocketed his hands into his trouser, "You should be more careful eavesdropping on people, you don't get to be saved everytime."

His words left me tongue struck, saved everytime? Has he saved me before? Could it be? No, it can't be, not possible.

Just as he was about to leave, I held his hand, "You should be careful also, someone is targeting you and you might get ambushed tonight."

Before he could say anything, Neon arrived cutting our conversation short, "Thelma." He called out, I forced out a smile as I stared at him.

He glared at Xavier gently before he pulled me to his side walking away from him, I glanced back to see Xavier still staring at me.

"Why are you with him?" Neon asked immediately we got in. I rolled my eyes secretly, if I hadn't been reborn, I'll have thought he was just been jealous not knowing he was just an evil and wicked person.

I snatched my hand away from his, landing a slap on his cheek before he could think of whatever could be on my mind, "What now? You want to start controlling me? Who do you think you are?"

He sensed I might be angry and quickly changed his expression, he helped me sat on my chair kneeling in front of me.

His fake smile plastered on his lips, "Of course not. I'm just worried about you, Xavier is dubious and act secretively, I just didn't want him to harm you."

The real secretive person here is you, you are the one who wanted to harm me, I scoffed slightly, my arms folded under my firm breast.

"Whatever you say, you just don't get to drag me all the way from the training ground to my room." He nodded slowly.

I let out a small smile, by now, he should be gone, he stared deep into me, coming closer to kiss me but I pushed him away.

He was shocked, yes, I always wanted this but he told me until he get announced as my royal alpha, it was good at first but not anymore.

"You said until you get pronounced as my royal alpha, just one night." I said sharply, he smiled and nodded standing up.

He pecked my forehead, "Yes, I totally forgot, I can't wait for you to be mine already." I nodded but stared at him in disgust as he left.

I breathed out a sigh of relief which didn't last long before mom came in, remembering what they both discussed earlier, my heart raced in pain.

The people I have regarded as my parents all my life were not even mine. The tiny bit of hope I held in me was lost, I thought maybe they were playing favorites and that was why they chose Yvonne over me.

But now that I knew the reason, I just couldn't stare at them as before, "Mom." I said slowly standing up for her to sit down.

She made me sit in front of her as she held my hands, "I saw Neon leaving your room just now."

Of course she'll try to find out if anything happened between us but she was wrong, "Yes mom. He came to check up on me since he hadn't seen me outside all day."

She gave me a knowing look, "No mom..." I paused laughing, "A woman's dignity is one of the greatest qualities she can possess, I didn't allow him to pass his boundaries."

She nodded, "I just decided to check up on you, I hope you are preparing for your crowning ceremony tomorrow, it'll be the full moon."

I didn't know what to say at first but I just nodded, "I can never be more ready."

She stood up and left before I could lose my temper, immediately she was out, I let out all the emotions I built up.

I had been controlling my rage before her because I don't want her suspecting anything, she definitely came because she thought I might be the one who eavesdropped on them.

I knew I had a lot to do, I stood up to go outside but Yvonne came in, can this people just stay out of my way and life for some minutes.

"Sis, I need your help." She said before I could say anything. I remember she came for something in the previous life.

"What do you want?"

She stared at me like she was contemplating, "I want you to mask my scent with your scent." She said.

I hesitated a bit, I did this for her in the previous life then the next morning, it was said Xavier was ambushed.

Then I remembered, Xavier wasn't just ambushed, he went into coma instead, I wasn't really interested in the case because it wasn't my concern.

But now that he saved me, I'll reciprocate by saving him alsi, "No Yvonne. I can't do that right now, I must have enough energy for tomorrow or I'll not be announced as the Luna."

She hesitated, "No sis, I know you can do it, it's really important to me." I sighed out in frustration. I was starting to get more annoyed.

"I told you, I can't, you can mask your own scent yourself so why do you need me to do that for you?" I snapped in anger, I needed to get to the cabin fast before Xavier would be attacked.

She stomped her feet on the floor in anger, "I'll just do it myself." She said as she left, I knew I had provoked her but I'm less bothered as I rushed towards the cabin.

My legs finding its way to where Xavier was said to be found unconscious in the previous life, getting there, I didn't see him instead a sweet chocolate scent filled my nose.

Something snapped in me, my wolf, Thalia whom was asleep stirred waking up, "Find it, he's our mate."

"It can't be, I didn't find my mate in the previous life so how come." I was in heat, Thalia wanted to take over, I knew.

Just when I was about turning, Xavier came out, the scent grew stronger, what is this? Could he be the one?

Thelma's POV

I was shocked, before I could figure out what was going on, Xavier stared at me, his eyes flickering as it changed from blue to green, "You are my mate." He growled.

Oh no! This won't be good, Thalia finally gained control of my body going for Xavier, immediately our bodies clashed, he caught my lips devouring on it like he had been waiting for this for a long time.

I reciprocated, our tongue moving in rhythm, he held me up as he opened another door leading to his room.

Without breaking the kiss, he took me to the bed laying my back down as he trail his fingers on my body before cupping my breast, I gasped giving him more entrance to my mouth.

But then I remembered, "No, wait stop, this isn't right!" I quickly stopped him. He backed off in co fusion.

His eyes staring like he was displeased, "Why wrong? Because Neon is your fiancé." He asked, I nodded negatively.

If I couldn't find him in the previous life or even came in contact with him until when he was in coma that I barely saw me through the mirror glass while visiting Yvonne.

Then it was a plan, they knew he was my destined mate and made me avoid him until I died, what is this? Now it was getting cleared.

Yvonne suddenly asking for my help and asking me to mask my scent with hers was to confirm if he was really my mate, him being attacked and ending up in coma as a wolf without scent.

I staggered back in shock, just then the doorbell to his room ring, I knew we had no time again, "Listen, I know it's awkward right now but I really want to save your life, we have to leave now and no matter what you heard or scent, you are not allowed to come out." I said in one breath pulling him to the door we walked in through.

Knowing how much he knew about the pack's underground and techs then he's definitely not just anyone like I thought.

He didn't argue but followed till we are at the other part of the room, "Care to explain why now..."

"Shhhh." I interrupted him placing a finger on my lips, then signal with my eyes for him to listen. Soon the door opened itself.

There were a little ruffles but nothing was found, "So where's he? I thought they said Xavier will be found here? Could it be a false alarm?" Yvonne's voice Duden outside.

There was a faint scent of me which made me wonder how she was able to mask a bit of my scent, now I knew how Xavier was tricked.

But I don't understand, why would he be my mate? I stared up to see him staring at me, "What?" I asked frowning my face.

Thalia on the other hand was excited, "I think you should seduce him so we can mate already, I'm in love with his wolf." She said.

"You should learn to control yourslef, we are in danger right now! Moreover, why are you just waking up after I waited all my life for you." I replied her using my wolf telepathy.

We werewolves have a special ability of being able to communicate with our wolves and that was why I was worried.

In my past life, I was poisoned resulting to my wolf weakened, now all of a sudden she's awake and I found my mate.

I would have never imagine this to happen, "I only regain my consciousness because we found our mate, you still need to find the antidote to whatever poison is in your body, it's killing me slowly."

I sighed at her words, I always thought I wasn't destined for a forever wolf since I only shifted once since I came of age and after that I was unable to anymore because I was poisoned.

"I just realize how pretty and seductive you are." Xavier's voice bought me back to reality as I flinched, I realized I had changed into a simple nightwear which wasn't really covering up my boobs.

I glared at him as I used my jacket to cover it up, "Pervert!"

He only smiled then sat down not far from the door, he stared at me, "Now you can tell me why you are so panicked, and who you are trying to hide from?"

His question threw me offguard, exactly what I have been avoiding, what should I say? That I had been reborn.

"I overheard them this afternoon while eavesdropping, probably before you got there and saved me."

My voice was sharp and I just wanted the ground to swallow me up, "Ohh really? But you sound like you are lying."

"If you don't believe me, then don't, I'm not proving anything to you." I rolled my eyes.

He laughed, I stared at him, his wide smile, made him so handsome, I haven't really observe his face yet.

His dark hair with the tip long dropping on his face, with his eyebrow cut a bit, his chin down and his lips red looking plump.

"Ohh really?" He walked towards another side, I quickly followed behind, he knew almost all the secret passage way and underground's of the pack.

I'm sure he isn't just an ordinary person, "Yes, at first I thought they were only discussing but turns out they were not my parents." I sighed.

My face held a pity look with my eyes watery a bit, he used his hands to clean the few drops of tears that rolled down my cheeks.

"You know, the thing is, I know who your parents..."

I stopped walking, "Wait." Interrupting his words as I sensed someone nearing my room, I couldn't fathom who it was but I knew I can't be here any longer.

"I'll see you tonight at the crowning ceremoney Xavier, I need to leave now." Without waiting for his response, I rushed towards the entrance then noticed I didn't know anywhere in this passageway.

I rushed back to him, "Do you perhaps know any shortcut I can pass to get back into my room before 1 minute."

He nodded holding my hands as he pulled me towards the third side of the room, he gently pushed one of the lid revealing another door.

Seriously!

I stared at him one last time before waving, "Thanks." Then I went in locking the door. Just in time for my door to open, I walked over there.

It was Yvonne and she was looking so annoyed , I knew what she was annoyed on, as their plans failed, I don't know what type of attack they'll plan on Xavier.

"What's wrong? Your face is sore, someone offended you?" I asked sitting down by the chair not far from the door.

She stomped her foot in anger before sitting down beside me folding her arms annoyingly, "Wasn't it one bastard! He literally ruined my plans."

"Oops! That could have hurt a lot. What happened?" I asked, my voice full of sarcasm. She shrugged standing up, I knew she wouldn't talk about it.

"I need to go now, the ceremoney is starting in an hour time so I need to prepare." She said turning to leave but I didn't care.

*****

I walked into the ceremoney hall, all gazed fell on me as I stepped inside, Yvonne wasn't having it so she came beside me.

"Sister, you are finally here." Her sweet voice echoing in the hall. I smiled secretly, the faster you push it, the easier it becomes for me to get my revenge.

I nodded my head walking towards the chair but she stopped me, she gave me a simple smile, "I just wanted to introduce you to my friends."

Even after giving you so many chances, you still wouldn't give up and still want to harm me. Just when she wanted to say something, dad came on stage.

I knew he was about to announce his successor, "Good evening pack members." He started, his eyes rotating like he was looking for someone until it dropped on me then he smiled.

"We are all gathered tonight for a great reason that'll make our pack thrive the more and become the best in years to come, as everyone knows, I only have two daughters..." He paused, his eyes dripping with tears as it did in the previous life, I scoffed.

"Now they are grown and of age to be engaged, I'm so happy we could all be here, together. Now we can all witness this joyous occasion together."

"I decided to abdicate the alpha responsibility to one of my daughter's consort. He has to proof himself worthy enough to be with him, for years, I've thought of whom but now I have my answer."

"Thelma is the best fit to be our Luna, she's strong, benevolent, and calm, and I can say the best person to pair with her is Neon..."

"No..." I interrupted him, "I won't be with Neon, and neither will I become this pack's Luna."

Gasped erupted from the crowd as soon as I said that, you people were the same reason that stared while I struggle endlessly for my life

and you think I'll ever want to be your Luna again.

Never!
