Chapter 14
The first person I see when I open my eyes is Zander’s. He is hovering over me with this unknown emotion in his
eyes.
“What are you doing? Why are you here? Where is my mom!” I ask him,
“Tell me why you had a panic attack when I touched you?“He asks me
“I asked you a question first. Where is my mom?“I ask sternly
“Gone to the grocery shop. Now answer my question and I won’t repeat myself. Why did you have a panic attack” he asks his voice darken with each words.
“None
of your business. I don’t have to explain myself to you. Your neither my husband or father” I snap at him and he growls.
“Don’t fuck with me Crystalise. I am your mate and I need to know everything about you. You are going to tell me this one way or the other. Do you understand me?” he says and I roll my eyes at him.
He stands up from the bed and looks at me,
“There is going to be a dinner party in pack and all the Alpha’s and Luna’s are going to be here. You are attending as my mate and you have no say this. The make up crew will be here tomorrow at 3pm. You’ll be selecting a dress today“he says and leaves without waiting for my response
Jerk!!
“You look exquisite Miss Gun. The Alpha is definitely going to have dropped jaw when he sees you” Jean, the makeup artist and hairdresser says.
I smile at his comment and look at myself in the mirror. I do look different, my hair has been curled and pinned in beautiful bun and a piece of tiara–like jewel was attached to it.
“Come, let’s try on your dress“Jean says and I follow him.
After a few minutes, the dress was adjusted to perfectly fit me. It brought out my shape and boobs.
“My my,my,girl, you’ll have heads turning at the ball. I don’t think alpha will like this” he teases. “Too bad I don’t care about what he likes” I smirk and he wins at me.
I wear my heels, that is when I see the note or the shoes.
I picked it up and saw the handwriting was from Marcus.
Slay, don’t stay. I love you. Kill them with your beauty.
I smile at his message. He is so sweet, I sometimes don’t understand why we aren’t compatible. We would have been the power couple,
am ready“I tell my designated driver and she nods stepping aside from me to walk out.
The party was bigger than I expected. Zander is part of the high court. His wolf, Atlas,is one of the leaders in the universe and he has the outmost respect in all the packs.

That is why he needed a woman with confidence and beauty and I guess I wasn’t the one.
I just left my mom’s side to grab a drink, actually I gave that excuse so I can’t be closer my dad or ex–father.
“Crystal? Is that you?“someone says from behind me and I unmediately turn around to see who it is.
It is a beautiful woman with long blond hair. She is wearing one of my collections, just from the sight of the design, know it is from my house.
“Oh no, I am not Crystal. I am actually Crystalise, her twin sister I tell her and recognition hits her.
“Oh, yeah, I forgot, please excuse my manners. I thought you looked familiar. Because I know as hell that the moon goddess doesn’t raise the dead. You are the famous fashion designer from London. I recognize you“she smiles
“Yeah that is me“I say feeling proud of my work.
“I actually do love your designs. But if I may ask, what are you doing here. I never thought you’d belong to this world” she says
“I was invited by Alpha Zander.“I simply answer her.
“Are you his second chance mate. Omg!Is that even real?“she questions
“No, no, I am only his guest. Sorry I didn’t catch your name?” I ask
“River. Luna River of the Blue light pack” she says proudly showing me her mark that has a beautiful blue star.
River and I chat for a little bit. Mostly about fashion until we are interrupted by Zander and Alpha Mark. I remember him because he used to hang out with my brother.
“Alpha Mark, this is Luna River and my mate Luna Crystalise “he says and I look at him if he has grown two heads.
I am neither his Luna or mate.
“Actually we are not mates. He is just joking around. I am Crystalise by the way“I tell him.
I hear Zander growl but I can ignore him. He can’t mindlink me, I broke all ties with the pack, the day I left.
“Nice to meet you Crystalise. I am sorry about Crystal, I know it must be hard for since she was your twin“he smiles politely
“It is fine“I shrug and there was an awkward silence before the music starts to play.
“May I have this Crystalise?“,Mark asks and I shyly nod.
He is cute,he looks different from the Alpha’s. But he is nothing compared to Zander.
I take his hands and suddenly I am being pulled back,
“Mine!“Zander growls, his eyes glowing red. Wow! Atlas must be really angry.
“Chill boy,it is just a dance. We can swap patterns midway he shrugs and takes my hands into his and we walk to the dance floor.
“That was some possessiveness for someone who isn’t your mate” he smile, his blue eyes sparkling.
“Things….it is complicated” I simply answer
“Figured. So are you the second chance or rejected but needed again because I know he was married to your sister” he says

“Let’s just go with rejected and now needed again for revenge“I shrug and he begins to sway me around.
1 don’t get why I am giggling but I am and it catching everyone’s attention.
“Wanna test his limit?” he asks with a mischievous smirk.
“What…. what….are you…“he cuts me off and before I can comprehend what is happening,his lips falls on mine.
My body begins to shake. Oh no I am having another panic attack.
But suddenly Mark is off me and on the floor with a beastly looking Zander hovering over him.
