FOUR YEARS LATER!!
*
“Alpha,” A man entered the office and started coughing because of the amount of smoke in the room. He waved his hand, closing the door behind him. He reached near the window and opened it first before speaking about why he was there.
“Celebrating your breakup anniversary with Tiara, huh?” Zahir asked, looking at his Alpha, who had no idea how many cigarettes he had already consumed. “So, what have you decided, Wylder? Going to choose someone as pack’s Luna or getting a breeder for pack’s Alpha new heir.” With that, Zahir coughed because of the smoke.
Wylder sneered at both ideas, but he knew that he had to take a decision about it soon because he was already twenty-eight, and in the next couple of months, he would be twenty-nine. As he was growing old, not just everyone was getting impatience for the pack’s future. Black Alder Pack was a small but dangerous pack near Paris. The former Alpha of the pack, Henry Thompson, died in an attack, without any heir or without any Luna. So, Wylder fought for the Alpha position with the eligible candidates and became the Alpha of the pack when he was twenty-three years old. The pack members didn’t want history to repeat itself.
Along with the pack’s future, even his Lycan was getting out of control. Something that had never happened before because his Lycan, Night was a calm beast. As per everyone, Night needed a mate.
It wasn’t that Wylder didn’t meet with his fated mate. He already did when he was twenty years old, but she was a wicked witch who wanted him just for his powers, as Wylder was a hybrid, both Wizard and Lycan. Zahir didn’t know the full truth except for the fact that she had turned his life upside down.
When the pairing made by Hecate (Goddess of Witchcraft) didn’t work out, Wylder gave himself a chance by choosing a mate on his own, his best friend, Tiara Haysbert, who was also his first love from childhood. But things didn’t work out between them.
Zahir knew that both of the women in Wylder’s life had left a scar on him to the extent that he didn’t want to destroy his life by inviting any third woman into his life. Because both the women, i.e., choices of the Goddess and his own, had just hurt him to the extent that he had stopped feeling anything for any woman.
Wylder snapped his fingers, and all the smoke in the air disappeared.
“Thank…”
“I did that for myself.” Wylder cut him, closing the topic. Zahir didn’t say anything, knowing very well why he did do that! “There is nothing to think about, Zahir. I’m not choosing anyone as my chosen mate. A big NO to that.” Wylder spoke with hooded eyes. “Getting a breeder will be fine.” Hearing this, Zahir knew that Wylder had found the best way to escape this situation because, by now, the whole pack knew that no female could give him a boner.
“Okay!! So, do you like any omega from our pack?” Zahir asked and immediately regretted asking that question when Wylder growled at him loudly.
“There is a strict rule not to fuck our pack’s omegas without wearing socks in the dick. They’re not breeders; they are women. If no one could claim them, no need to get them pregnant.” Wylder growled. He was raised by two mothers, so he never learned to treat women as things. “I’m working on the new rule with the Werewolf King that if anyone gets any female pregnant just for the entertainment purpose, then that person will have to take responsibility for the pup. There are so many pups running around without a father.”
“I’m talking about breeders who will be willing to give birth to my heir in exchange for money or freedom from hell hole. Whatever suits her.” Zahir nodded his head and immediately mind-linked Gamma of the pack, Eliam, who was practically the manwhore of the pack asking for a place where they could find breeders for purchase.
“Eliam told me that there is an auction of the Omegas tonight in Cross River Pack,” Zahir spoke, on which Wylder knitted his eyebrow, not liking the fact that he found a place like this, this soon and the worst part was it was tonight.
“Did I mention that that woman should be able to give me a boner?” Wylder pointed out.
“Come on, Man!! I know you’re not at all interested in all this and finding every reason to escape from this situation.” Zahir groaned. “But at least we can visit, right? If not, with the motive of finding a breeder for you, then we can rescue some to fall into that hellhole unwillingly. This is on your do-to list, isn’t it? ” He reminded Wylder, on which he gritted his teeth.
Yes, Wylder had planned this with his Beta and Gamma that from this year that they would start saving female omegas from auctions which were forced into becoming a breeder. Since they weren’t the richest pack in the world but they could still manage to save lives.
“As far as I remember, you were planning to send Eliam and me to auction like this, remember?”
Wylder growled at him, silently telling him to shut his mouth. He remembered what he had said. No need to remind him of his own words. But at that moment, his intention was to save the omegas, not to get one for himself.
“Get out.”
“I will ask the driver to get ready,” Zahir said and waited for Wylder to say no to it. But it never came, so he started leaving from there. “Oops!! Sorry! I forgot the main reason why I was here. We received an invitation from the current Moon Goddess, Doctor Liara Wayne, to attend a party thrown at their place because Black Council is finally now Silver Moon Pack. The party is after two weeks.”
With that, Zahir left the office.
‘I will fucking kill any female if you dare to fuck her without my approval.’ Night warned his human. Wylder didn’t say anything to him because he wasn’t planning to do anything like that.
‘If I find a suitable breeder, then I’ll be choosing IVF to have to get an heir. Even you know that getting a boner and other stupid things are just an excuse.’ Wylder explained, on which his Lycan didn’t speak anything. And his silence meant he was fine with that.
‘Can you ask Moon Goddess to pair with Ara now?’ Night asked. ‘Liara is like a family, isn’t she?’
‘No, Night. We are done with Ara. For us, she was our world, but she… she wanted her ex-mate even after we confessed our feelings to her. Remember, we decided to let her go because we didn’t want to force ourselves on her.’ Wylder said, shaking his head.

Flashback
*
Wylder decided to visit Tiara before leaving her life forever. That was when he accidentally ended up hearing her conversation with her ex-mate, Theodore Wayne.
‘I’m sorry.’ Wylder heard a voice of a male coming from Tiara’s suite. He didn’t know who that male was, so he stayed back for a while to see what exactly was going on.
“You mentioned that you’re sorry for not working on our bond. I can give you a chance because of which you will get a chance to work on the things that you didn’t previously.” Wylder stopped breathing, hearing Tiara’s voice. He already knew who the male was with whom Tiara was talking. His heart ached how realizing his importance in her life. No matter what, she always wanted the person who was the reason behind her tears and enormous pain.
“What happened? I promised to be a good mate just like Lee and will stay with her like a sister instead of fighting with her over you. And I can bet that Liara will have no problem in sharing you with me.”
That was it.
He couldn’t stay at that place a second more.
He considered himself a fool for even expecting her to love him back. He cursed himself for even expecting anything from her.

Flashback End !!
*
A lone tear escaped Wylder’s eyes thinking about that incident. They hated to cry, but then Tiara was the only person in the whole world who could bring him to this state because he didn’t remember crying for someone else after his father’s death.
He wiped his tears and took a deep breath. He really needed to move, and if not a woman, then he could definitely fall in love with his own blood and flesh. It was the time to give someone else his whole world. Moreover, twenty-eight was too late to become a father in werewolves' world.
He recalled the news of famous playboy Calvin Logan Haysbert, the Alpha of Blood Moon Pack, whose life turned upside down for good after he became a father.
‘We need to find a strong breeder who could bear a Lycan.’ Night reminded him because, as per theory, Lycan pup kicks a lot and is hard to carry.
Wylder couldn’t mind if his heir would be a normal werewolf, but then this wasn’t in his hand. But by thinking about the worst case, he knew Night was right about choosing a strong breeder.
He stood up on his feet to change his clothes before leaving for Cross River Pack, where this auction was held. Omegas from different packs would be there for sale as if they were some items instead of women.
After six hours of ride, they finally reached their destination. The moment he stepped out of the car. He could hear loud music and a lot of voices at the same time. Not just that, he could smell lust, arousal, pain, and a lot of emotions. Night controlled his power so that his human wouldn’t go crazy by sensing all these things all of a sudden.
‘I hope your mate knows that you’re here.’ Wylder said so that Beta Female wouldn’t kick her mate's ass for coming over to a place like this.
‘Of course, Alpha. Even though she knows that I’m here because of work, she couldn’t help but feel jealous.’ Zahir mind linked with a smile on his face while Wylder felt jealous of him. He didn’t want to think about Tiara, but again, he recalled that she felt jealous of him near any woman.
The organizer of the event greeted them when they walked inside. In fact, he was surprised to see them because Black Alder Pack was considered one of the most respectful packs. They were obviously not the richest pack, most powerful pack, or the biggest pack, but that pack had earned a lot of respect in many aspects.
Zahir bought four omegas from the auction on Wylder’s order. He had no idea how Wylder was judging whom to buy and whom not by observing them, but he stayed quiet and didn’t question his decision. He didn’t miss how there were no emotions in his eyes when beautiful omegas came in front of them wearing nothing but a little cloth that was baring hiding their jewels.
Though Nudity was common among them but wearing these types of clothes was just for the seducing purpose. Some of them even stripped naked, showing their big boobs and firm round ass.
“Now, it's time for omega with no name, no background, no wolf, no beautiful face, and also not for sale.” The anchor spoke, confusing everyone. “But everyone present is allowed to fuck her for FREE.” By hearing the word FREE, everyone started waiting for that omega.
‘Who cared for her face if her pussy would be beautiful?’ Wylder’s fist tightened when he heard this.
“Let’s go, Alpha. She is not for sale.” Zahir suggested.
“And let everyone rape her?” Wylder snapped at him, and that was when he saw a person dragging a woman by tying a chain to her neck, like an animal. Not just that, but her hands were also tied, and she was naked.
Wylder was about to handle this situation by stopping this nonsense, but before the woman lifted her half-burnt face, Night snapped. Wylder felt his control losing to his Lycan because he was pissed; he was furious.
“MINE,” He growled before everything turned black. The last time he had spoken this word was when he was with Tiara.
