Episode 8

The moment of truth had arrived, leaving many bystanders in awe of the unfolding scene. The supreme alpha was seen strolling hand in hand with his mate as if they were an established couple, a sight that astonished onlookers because it was commonly known how Queen Monica, the woman chosen by the moon goddess to be the alpha's partner, and thus his mate, had initially rejected him. Likewise, everyone had witnessed the alpha's suffering—not being accepted as expected upon finding his destined partner. As time went on, the situation seemed to only get worse. His attempts to hide his pain were futile, especially when he saw his mate proclaim love for another man, defending him, regardless of the risk of injury to himself.

But now, things had taken an unexpected turn. The alpha appeared more jubilant than a child with a new toy. The radiance and joy emanating from his mate matched his own, bringing happiness to most. However, not all was perfect—Amelia was on the verge of exploding like a nuclear bomb. This sudden closeness between the supreme alpha and his destined mate was highly inconvenient, disrupting her plans entirely. Amelia had hoped to become the alpha's consolation when his destined partner broke his heart, thus securing the status she believed she deserved and had fought for years. Despite her many attempts to seduce the alpha, she had never succeeded, which frustrated her further. And just as she thought she might finally have a chance to realize her dreams, her plans were thrown into disarray once more at the sight of Monica and the alpha looking so affectionate.

Though the situation looked bleak for Amelia, she refused to give up her claim to the position she felt was rightfully hers. She resolved that when Monica was alone, she would make it clear who truly deserved to be the supreme mate.

While everyone else offered their mix of positive, negative, and envious comments about the alpha and his mate Monica, Monica and Matt were in their little bubble of flirtation. The alpha relished teasing his mate, and Monica was determined not to be intimidated by the imposing figure before her, who also happened to be her fated partner.

"How do you like our territory, my mate?" inquired the alpha Matt.

Monica felt a shiver run up her spine at the sound of the alpha's deep voice, but it was the inclusion in his life that truly thrilled her. Now more than ever, she was resolved that this man would be hers. However, she intended to go after those despicable beings who should have never existed, and make them suffer through their last breath in this world, only after ensuring her relationship with the alpha was secure and fortified.

"It's quite beautiful, alpha. Thank you for this wonderful tour," Monica responded gratefully.

Her words were genuine, but despite her current joy at having a chance to atone for the past that her ridiculous pride and blindness towards Richard's disgusting nature had destroyed, she found it hard to forget the sight of her deceased parents, her brother's death, and the horrifying knowledge that her little sister had been abused by Richard then murdered as if she had no feelings or desire for a happy life.

Matt sensed his mate's mood shift and became even more certain that she was hiding something that might be related to her sudden change of attitude towards him. However, he chose not to pressure her, knowing that all truths come to light at the right time. He was determined to prove to his mate that his loyalty, love, and desire for her were unwavering and real.

The tour continued, and Monica decided to put aside the painful memories. She would not allow those vile creatures to ruin this moment or jeopardize her bond with Matt. Just when they least expected it, she would hunt them down and dispose of them, something she should have done long ago if not for a misleading affection that had almost cost her the most important things in her life—her people and her territory.

The final stop for alpha Matt and his mate was a visit to Matt's parents and siblings, who resided in a different section of the pack house. He had previously refrained from introducing them due to Monica's earlier attitude, but having witnessed her remarkable positive change, the alpha decided it was the ideal time for Monica to meet her in-laws and siblings-in-law. He simply hoped his siblings would behave themselves, as they tended to quibble like cats and dogs or make their snide remarks with ulterior motives.

Upon learning she was about to meet the in-laws, Monica felt a mixture of dread and resolve. She was not one to shy away; better to handle the situation now than later, and in doing so, gain even more ground with her alpha.
