The Alpha King’s Regret Hiding His Secret Twins by Isaiah
Chapter 3

Chapter 3

Kiara POV

Just then, a familiar voice breaks through my thoughts. “Why are you sitting here all alone?” I glanced up only to find Lucia. She wears a stunning purple b*dycon dress that features her curves, her presence emits confidence. Beside her was her twin brother, Austin. The gamma and third in command of the pack.

“Good to see you, Luna. The arrangement is up to the member’s liking. Everyb*dy is praising you,” Austin greeted me as he took a seat beside his sister. He was accompanied by his mate, Jessica. Who greeted me with a smile.

I tried to divert my attention, focusing on the conversations around me, but my eyes kept returning to them. Their closeness, the way she leaned into him, it all felt like a betrayal, even though he had never promised me anything more than an arranged partnership. But seeing your mate with other women hurts.

“What’s she doing here? When did she return?” Lucia and Austin asked at the same time when their eyes went in the direction of them standing together. So she is related to this pack, but where was she all this time? Because, as far as I know, in three years I haven’t heard of her or seen her.

“Do you know her?” I couldn’t help but ask Lucia, seeing her grimace expression on her face, but as soon as I asked her this, her face turned into pity. She glanced at Austin.

“She is Alpha King’s best friend. Alpha Killian, Rihanna, and Beta Alejandro have been together forever since they were children.” Austin said, and I felt like a fool because I hadn’t heard anything from Killian; not even his beta, Alejandro, bothered mentioning about her.

“But that’s not the case. She always tries to act like Luna before you come to the pack. She thought that she was going to be Luna. But the fated bonds can’t be broken. When she got to know that Alpha King had met his mate and was going to get married to you. She reluctantly left the pack.” Lucia said it bitterly, showing it in her face.

“She is a b*tch.” Lucia added sipping her wine. And I couldn’t help but feel a little endangered by her presence. I shook my head. Maybe she was here to see Killian’s coronation. I mean, they’re best friends, right? She couldn’t have come with any other feelings.

“Okay, that’s enough; she’s a guest here in our pack; Let’s not say something like this. Maybe she was here to attend the Alpha King’s coronation.” I tried to reason, but it felt like I was lying to myself. My wolf didn’t like her at all. She senses her coldness and nastiness.

“I hope so, Kiara. I really hope so,” Lucia whispered quietly, but I heard it clearly. My wolf paced inside my mind as I watched Killian, for the first time in my life, get closer to any other woman.

The grand Pack Council Hall is adorned with banners and filled with pack members, their eyes fixed on the ceremonial stage. Alpha Eric was still not present here. And I don’t comprehend this mixed uncertain feeling. He had told me to arrange the event, and his absence made me feel a little scared….

Elder Simon, one of the council members and oldest in the pack, took a position beside Killian. We are all silent to watch as the scene unfolds because that place should be acquired by Alpha Eric. Murmures were heard inside the grand hall, but Killian’s intense gaze at them was enough for them to stay quiet.

Elder Simon cleared his throat, gaining the attention of the members, saying, “Welcome all. Today, we gathered to witness a historic moment in our Madcrest pack’s history. And it’s sad news for us that Alpha Eric wasn’t able to attend this ceremony because he was still busy with the other matters.” More murmurs accompanied.

“BUT we’ve got to hold this ceremony,” He said a little loudly “After years of service and dedication. Alpha King Killian had proven his power and made the Macrest pack one of the ruling packs. Now it’s time for him to finally sit in his position as the Alpha King,” he took a pause and glanced towards me, “and Luna to rise and take their respective titles and positions.” Elder Simon’s voice booms in the hall. The pack members shouted with anticipation. He raises his hand and commands silence.

“Alpha King Killian, you have grown into a remarkable Alpha. Because of the absence of Alpha Eric, I pass down the mantle of leadership to you with confidence and pride. Lead our pack with strength, compassion, and the spirit of unity.” Elder Simon said this and raised his hand.

Killian’s chest swells with pride as he grasps Simon’s hand, a symbol of the passing of leadership. The pack members erupt in applause, their approval and support echoing throughout the hall.

His eyes met mine, and something flickered in those eyes—hatred—which made me more distant from him. The pack members quiet down, anticipating the next declaration. My heart is thumping with excitement and nervousness.

Elder Simon glanced at me and turned to the pack members. He cleared his throat. “Now it’s time for Luna to join the pack.”

Before he could say anything, Killian stepped forward. His dominant aura was enough for the pack members to bow to him. But for me, it didn’t affect me much. The power of fate mates.

“I have carefully considered the options and have come to a difficult decision. It is my duty to announce that the new Luna of our pack shall be…” Killian said this and paused for a moment. My pulse quickens as I await the order that will confirm my place as Luna.

I took a deep breath, my confidence wavering slightly, but I felt a warm hand as Lucia encouraged me to walk to the podium. I rose from my seat, ready to walk, when his next command voice froze me in place.

“Rihana, granddaughter of the elder Simon.” He said. I stopped without taking any further steps. I look at Rihana, who stands up gracefully and walks to the podium, standing beside Killian. Who held his hand out for her to take. And for me, everything around me shattered into pieces.

There was silence, as pack members as well as I were too confused to understand what happened here. Elder Simon was the first to cheer, and pack members followed. This is the most humiliating thing that has happened in history.

“Kiara,” Lucia whispered. I stood there frozen, unable to say a word. Oppose or ask, What the actual fuck happened here? But I was not going to let them see my vulnerability. I act in such a way that this decision is already known to me.

The event went on. Nob*dy said anything related to this sudden change of the Luna of the pack; the position that was rightfully mine was given to a girl whom I had just seen. I saw that Killian was not going to say or even reason about this change without my notice. I stood up and walked out of the hall.

“Kiara? Wait! Where are you going? Do you know about all this?” Lucia came rushing toward me. And I silently prayed to the moon goddess to not let me break in front of her.

I tried everything in all those three years to let pack members believe that everything was good between their Alpha and me.

“L-Lucia, I want to be alone for a while. I’m not feeling well. You should go back and enjoy the event. I’ll talk to you tomorrow,” After saying this, I rushed to the stairs to go to our room. Closing the door and dropping down on my knees. Crying my heart out.
