CHAPTER 54: The Demon Form
THE SMIRK ON HER lips was never erased as she sipped on the tea that Jackson made for her.
Gianna never knew that she could taste this kind of drink again. It was sweet... very different from her
painful past. She couldn't help but to remember what happened before...
Alpha Karius is the only man she has ever loved in this lifetime. She loves him so much and wished to
the moon goddess that she will be his mate in the future. But then, maybe destiny has its own way. She
was the happiest when Alpha Karius suddenly asked for her father's pack's help on the future rogue
attacks to save his own pack. He was stressed about that problem before and of course, she talked to
her father to help them. She felt bad on what's happening to his pack that time but she also couldn't
help but to feel happy at the same time.
Because for the first time, he noticed her after years of just looking at him from afar. Her heart was the
happiest that time.
But maybe she was too obsessed with him already to the point that she used the marriage card even
though it's only a set up to strengthen his pack. She loves Alpha Karius to the point that she's willing to
eliminate everyone who will be a hindrance to their relationship. She could go to that extent just to have
him for herself. And that's fine to her if that's the only way.
They were both fine. Gianna settled on their so-called set up because she thought that maybe he will
love her in the end too, like the way she loves him. She became the Luna of the pack for a show. She
was respected by Alpha Karius' pack and it's one of the privileges of staying with him. She got to rule
and do anything she wanted without any comment from anyone. She's the Queen in his pack, and
she's liking it so much.
But it was all short-lived. She was wrong when she thought that she could live with all the privilege of
being Alpha Karius' Luna. Because she found out that he's having a relationship with an Omega.
A damn omega! An omega who has the lowest pack among all the wolves! An omega who's the
weakest of all! She can't believe that of all the wolves in the pack, he chose her!
What did he even see in her? What's so special with that woman that she was able to get Alpha Karius'
attention?! It angers Gianna to the core!
She couldn't accept it! So, she did all her best to remove her in his life. She made a decision to use her
fake Luna card to remove her in his pack. She made everyone hate that omega. She thought it was all
fine, because the majority of the pack was on her side. Everyone looks up to her. But then it didn't turn
out well.
Alpha Karius was so mad when he found out everything that she did to the omega. He was so mad that
he made her leave!
Alpha Karius forced her to leave his pack and what's really worse is her own father disowned her for
what she did. Everyone suddenly hated her. The world suddenly turned upside down. But even though
so many unfortunate things happened to her, she found strength on the other side... the evil and
darkness.
She became evil because they all made her to be one! Now, it's time for her to make a move and get
what's truly hers! Most especially, she will get Alpha Karius... There's no doubt about that. She will get
him even if he's already mated to that woman. If she needs to repeat another mistake again, then she
will do it in a heartbeat!
"You should go now. They might think you are staying here long."
Gianna put down the cup of tea on the table and stared at Jackson. She smirked at him. She never
knew that she could get his loyalty that easily because of his feelings towards that woman. Jackson...
he's in love with Alpha Karius' mate. And she never knew that he's also willing to betray her to have her
in the end. That's how cunning he is... a traitor.
"I'm still enjoying my tea here. Are you that desperate to make me leave?" She said as she still smiled
at him. "And don't you want us to discuss what you want in return for what you did for me?"
Jackson was one of her easiest targets. He's maybe strong physically but his mind is easily swayed by
his own desires. His feelings for that omega made him like this. Somehow, Gianna couldn't help but to
also see herself in him. They are both willing to do everything to have the love of their lives.
He sighed as he sat on the chair just in front of her. She doesn't really like to stay that long here but
she would like to piss Jackson even more. She knows that he's actually annoyed to see her but he's
just putting up with her whims since he wants something in return from her.
"Fine," he answered as he clenched his jaw.
"Good. You know that I'm only the one who could help you get the woman that you want." She smirked
at him again. Well, she's telling the truth. If there's anyone who could match the moon goddess, then
that will be her. That's how powerful she is now.
He sighed. "Then tell me how I could even do it. I did what you wanted. I hypnotized Lilian using the
scent of wolfsbane that would make her kiss me while Alpha Karius is watching. I also made him drink
the tea that has poison." He clenched his jaw. She couldn't help but to chuckle at what he said.
Jackson is right though. It was all her idea to make him do that. And like a loyal dog, Jackson did all of
it in a heartbeat for his pathetic love towards that omega.
"It seems like you're getting impatient, dear. Don't worry. Your hard work will pay off soon. I promise you
that once everything is in the right places, I will break Alpha Karius and that woman's mate bond.." she
smiled evilly. "Because there's no other woman that's suited to Alpha Karius but me. Only me..."

"CAN WE TALK, Nadia?" Lilian asked the old helper when she saw him busy in the garden. It was the
perfect time to talk to her about what she found out in the library of Alpha Karius' mansion.
"What is it, Luna?" Nadia asked as she stopped on picking the fallen leaves from the ground and wiped
her hand on the hem of her dress. She was actually surprised since why would the Luna even talk to
her? It was so sudden. Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
"This is a bit important. Can we talk... there instead?" Lilian pointed to the farthest part of the garden.
Nadia was confused at first but then she nodded later on. They walked towards the farthest part of the
garden where some of the insects are loud because of their buzzing sounds. That made her think that
maybe what they're going to talk about is really important like what Lilian said.
"I don't actually know how to start this but... you said you've been working for Alpha Karius' family ever
since he was still young. So, that means... you know their family very well... right?" She asked as she
made her face look more serious.
Nadia gasped a bit, suddenly had the hunch on where their conversation would take them. She knew
about the family that she served for a long time now. And she promised to herself to not expose their
secret until her very last breath. "Yes, Luna. What about it?" she asked, trying to sound casual in front
of Lilian even though she's actually nervous inside.
"I'd like to confirm it from you since I want to hear it from someone who witnessed everything in Alpha
Karius' family. Is it true that... he's--"
Nadia shook her head. "P-Please, stop, Luna. You shouldn't open up about that matter anymore."
Nadia immediately cut her off from speaking.
"What do you mean, Nadia?"
"It has been a secret of the family... Alpha Karius being a... half d-demon." Nadia looked down as she
played with her hands nervously. "Let's not talk about it anymore, Luna. Please..."
"But why? I'd like to know more about this." Lilian still insisted.
"Luna... Alpha Karius could be really dangerous, too if triggered. If that happens..."
"He could kill, right?" She finished what Nadia is about to say. Nadia sighed before she slowly nodded.
"Alpha Karius is kind. Please, let's not do something that could taint his reputation as the alpha of the
pack."
"I understand, Nadia. But... have you ever heard about the wolf that has been rewarded by the moon
goddess?"
Nadia slowly nodded her head. "Yes. And I just hope that it's just a myth. Because I could never afford
to see Alpha Karius to get... k-killed when the time comes because of being a half-demon. Please, let's
keep him safe, Luna. Let's protect him. I couldn't afford to see that kid to..." She sighed, not being able
to complete what she's about to say.
Lilian sighed. She was about to say something when they both suddenly heard a loud scream from the
mansion. They looked at each other as if they're talking through their eyes. They both gasped and
immediately went back only to be welcomed by a messy place. The vase shattered on the floor, the
paintings hanging on the wall also broke into two and there are some claw prints on the wall and floor.
It looks like the place has been hit by a dangerous disaster.
"What happened?" Lilian asked one of the helpers.
"I-It's Alpha Karius, Luna! He did this!" the helper answered. Fear is evident in her eyes and she's also
about to cry.
Lilian gasped and was suddenly surprised when she saw Calxy running quickly with silver chains on his
hand towards the attic of the mansion. Curiously, Lilian followed Calyx in the attic room, only to see a
man that she almost didn't recognize.
A naked man chained with silver chains standing at the center... with sharp fangs and horns on his
head. His nails are longer than the usual nails of a wolf. His eyes are bloody red, glaring at their
direction as he tries to get off from the chains around him. He was groaning so loud with his deeper
voice.
Oh, goddess.
"A-Alpha Karius..." Lilian whispered her name when she realized something.
He had turned on his demon form.
