Michael Alpharia's POV
'Alexander, say a word, please!! Talk to me,' I touched her cheek, but there was no response.
'Tears began to flow down my cheek. I had killed my unborn baby and my mate in just one night.
I felt shattered. "All hail, Alpha Michael Alpharia, the next alpha to the Ashwood kingdom and Skywood kingdom,' everyone bowed down, but I paid no attention to that.
I lifted Alex into my arms, rain began to fall, and thunder began to strike. 'All I want, Moon Goddess, is a second chance,' I cried out loud.

After days of lamenting, it was finally time to take the throne.
I was dressed in a royal robe by the maids. 'It is time,' the previous beta, Louis, walked up to me, and I nodded.
Walking down the hall to see the number of people who were waiting for me, a part of me was sad, and a part of me was happy, finally accomplishing his goals.
I walked up to the throne, seeing the massive amount of people from Skywood and Ashwood. My mouth was hard to lift.
'Good day, my fellow Ashwood and Skywood werewolves. I'm so glad to be your ruler. I promise to rule and serve this kingdom with all my might,' a lot of applause sounded.
Louis placed the crown on my head. 'All hail, the Commander of the two kingdoms, Alpha Michael Alpharia.'
'All hail.'
'I also hereby claim everything that has ever belonged to the previous Female Alpha, Alex Lunaria,' I said, gulping down the bitterness in my throat.
'I thereby welcome you all to meet my new mate, Sophia Mech Alpharia,' a round of applause sounded as she walked up in her beautiful ball gown.
"She is beautiful,' lots of comments and cheering.
A few months passed ruling the kingdom. I cursed myself every time I remembered the incident of me killing my mate and unborn child.
I sat down in my chambers. 'Pour more for me!!' I yelled at my servant, taking more alcoholic wine.
'Oh, yes, this is amazing,' I said intoxicatedly.
'Dance for me, huh?' I signaled to the dancers, and they began to sway their waists up and down. I nodded and began to laugh.
'Your Highness, Luna Sophia, the Luna of the two kingdoms, seeks you,' a guard announced.
'Tell her I don't want to see her,' I took another cup of wine.
All of a sudden, the door was barged open, giving everyone a shock.
'Leave now!!' Sophia yelled at the maids.
'Yes, Your Highness,' they bowed, trying to take a step.
'If you all leave, your death will be a miserable one!' I bellowed back. There was tension among the young maidens.
'Your Lord, I seek privacy,' Sophia uttered without gazing into my face.
'Who are you that seeks privacy?' I asked her, fixing my gaze on her.
'I will proceed further to discuss, since I don't deserve privacy,' she uttered.
'Ever since you've been on the throne, I see no reason why you maltreat me, and you haven't even come close to me,' with a pain in her voice.
'Are you my mate?' I asked her, fixing my gaze on her.
'I know you might be pained by what happened, but the kingdom deserves an heir to the throne, and it will be right if you fulfill your duties,' she said again.
'Wow!!' I smirked. 'I'm so pleased that I am receiving lectures on how to be an alpha,' I chuckled.
Ever since Alex left my life, she was the only one I could think of, making me lose focus on my duties. It seemed her spirit wanted to torment me for killing her.
'Nothing like torment,' Sophia uttered, taking me out of my thoughts, surprised how she knew what I was thinking.
'You are only stuck because of your perspective, Your Highness. You didn't do anything wrong at all. You were deceived and manipulated by her, nothing more!!' Little by little, her words began to get into my brain.
'Now I would let you know that it will be selfish of you if you don't fulfill your right towards me because of your lamentation,' she added, triggering my brain.
'Enough, Luna!!!' I shouted at her, making all the maidens frightened.
'You just have to do what you need to do, fulfill your right….' I cut in. 'I said shut up, Luna, get out,' I broke the glass, standing up like a monster.
Stepping towards her, pointing my hand at her, 'Don't let me lose my temper!!' I walked away.
Walking down the hall, Louis saw me and caught up with me.
'Alpha, you need to know what's going on.'
'A new pack is formed by the rogue.'
'A new pack from where?' I asked in disbelief.
'Some Omegas from Skywood are forming a pack due to the maltreatment they receive from the normal werewolves,' he said while trying to catch up with my walk.
'That's better than. All the best for them. I hate Omegas. They should evacuate the Skywoods and Ashwood.'
'Are you really making that decision?' Louis asked. I stopped and turned back towards him.
'Who is the alpha?' I asked him.
'You are,' he replied.
'Then fucking do what you are asked to!!' I yelled at him, entering into my chambers.
While sitting on the bed, a voice came. 'Your Highness, your wine.'
'Bring it in.'
'Here you go, your lord' she placed it on the table, and poured the wine into a cup.
She started giving me each shot to drink. I kept remembering the conspiracy of the young lady who gave me information about their impotent king and all, making me greedy to enlarge my coast not knowing it was a trap.
'Add more' she poured another one inside the cup, before I knew it my eyes were getting blurry and I could hardly control myself.
The door to my chamber opened, Sophia walked in 'you can leave' she told the maid.
