Revenge: Disguised Weak Prince at All-Boys Alpha Academy

Roxxane's POV "You will be marrying Alpha Simeon, of the Silvermoon pack." That declaration from my father hits me so hard like a thunderstorm. My eyes take a quick scan around the courtroom possibly to be sure I'm not the only one taken aback by that ridiculous utterance from my father. But it seems I'm the only one. Every occupant in the court all has neutral expressions like they already finalized this before my arrival. Only the Luna, sitting beside my father, has a different expression. She looks furious even though she's trying to mask it. "Since Raven is pregnant for another man, she can't be given out in marriage anymore," My father adds and that just makes my insides snap. Really? My father calls me down here to inform me I'll be getting sold off in place of a sister who got impregnated by my mate? For the first time in years, I'm unable to concoct a word to say to him. All I do is stare blankly at him as the occurrences of yesterday come flooding my head. How he had shown me what humiliation felt like when he made another bloodline his successor, instead of me, his daughter. Yesterday was supposed to be my coronation, the day I finally take after my father as the Alpha of this pack. By tradition women are forbidden to rule but I thought I would be an exception because my father made me slave half my life for it. I trained... hard. While the men slept, I went to war. I bled. I served this pack with everything I've got. I barely had time for myself... I barely had time to be a girl. Yet when time came to attain my reward, my father placed my crown on the head of a traitor. A man who claimed to be my mate yet impregnated my half-sister. My father was aware, yet he still crowned him. And now what? After the betrayal, after the denial, I'm supposed to marry in place of his bastard daughter? "I won't!" The words come out cold. I maintain a fierce demeanor as I match my father's commanding gaze. "Over my dead body would I be a replacement bride." The courtroom drops into dead silence. No one turns down Alpha Cyrus' orders. Except that I just do and I don't regret it. "I didn't summon you here to banter words with you, Roxxane." My father says calm as usual. He never yells. He never needs to. "And whoever says I intend to banter words with you?" I scoff, fighting hard to suppress my raging wolf. "You don't really expect to marry me off after denying me the crown I earned did you?" "You never earned my crown." My father scoffs, his face crunches as if I sound disgusting. "No matter what you do, nothing changes the fact that you are a woman." Nothing could ever pierce me harder, than those words. Not even the pieces of swords from war baths. "So you would rather let a traitor become your successor just because he's what? A man?" "No! I didn't ordain Marcus the Alpha just because he's a man." My father spells it out even though he knows I don't need the information. "According to tradition Marcus is the only eligible male for the crown. He's the beta of this pack and on top of that he's the strongest male. Since I have no son to inherit me, he's the next in line. In fact he had no reason to have faked his mate's bond with you..." "Yet he did." I cut my father off, my stomach clenches hard. "He faked his mate bond with me because being the mate of the Alpha's only daughter would increase his chances of becoming the Alpha. But you know what? I just might not even care about that, if only he hadn't connived with your bastard daughter to pull it off! While he was fooling around with me, he was f*****g her behind my back! Yet when their affairs came out into the open, you still placed a crown on his damn head!" My voice shakes the court hall but my words only seem to affect every other occupant in the courtroom. While their faces are coated with astonishment, my father... He has his stern look intact. Unshaken as all he does is pin me with his fiery onyx eyes. Then he clears his throat and begins, "I am not in support of Marcus' deceit against you but that isn't reason enough to hand over my pack to just anyone. Especially not to a woman." I already expected that but still I don't know why it strikes me so hard. "Besides he has the future heir of this pack planted in your sister's womb so I'll have you forget about all that and do what's obligated of you now." Forget about all that? I badly want to burst into a hysterical laugh if only I have a slice of humor in me to do that. So without mincing words, I reject his demands outright. "I'm not marrying Alpha Simeon or anyone else for you or the pack's sake. I know this marriage has to take place just so you can be on his good side. But mark my words, not even my dead body will be used as a merger for this pack." "Rox..." "And if I were you, I would worry much about the future because it will be destructive for you by the time I earn back the title you denied me. I'm going to be an Alpha, I'm going to rise more powerful than you or any other Alpha. And when that happens, you'll be the first one I'll crush." I watch as my father's brows crease, a mix of confusion and rage shimmering in his fiery eyes. At the same time, everyone else in the courtroom all has shock coating their faces. My mother on the other hand isn't just shocked but scared as well. "Ro—Roxxane, what are you trying to do?" My mother's voice quivers way too much for a real Luna. Well, has my mother ever been royalty? She has always been my father's submissive from the longest I know. Likewise every other she-wolf in this pack. I don't get to respond before my father decides to reprimand me for standing up to him. "How dare you!" He growls furiously but I only respond with a scoff and turn my back to him starting for the exit. But my father completely loses it, and like a deranged wolf, his voice howls after me yelling my name. I don't turn back and I am halfway to the door when I hear him order the guards to seize me. Not much move from their post but the two that dare to come after me, barely touch me. With one ferocious swift move, I plunge my paws in their necks and fling them across the courtroom. Their blood pools the tiled floor just before I dash out. I hadn't spent half my life on the war front just to get captured by filthy guards. With raw rage shimmering through my bloodstreams, I march through the exit of the palace with one destination in mind. Krystal's house. But I barely walk for long when the grunts of a familiar voice bring me to a halt. The grunts become more audible, accompanied by the loud moans of a female. With the erratic creaking of bed and smacking sounds of flesh. I don't need anyone to tell me what's going on. "Keep going Marcus." My chest tightens hard as Raven's moaning hits my ears. So much pleasure drips off her voice as Marcus is obviously pounding into her. "I can take itttt!!!" "f**k Raven, I think I'm coming." "Nuh... don't..." "I have to mark you. Now!" The creaking sounds of s*x stop and it takes a couple seconds before a loud scream from Raven rings throughout the hallway... indicating a marking has been done. I feel an excruciating burn spiral through my chest... unbearable to hold in. "Oh Goddess! I can't believe you finally marked me!" Raven squeaks excitedly. "You just don't know how much I've longed for this day, Raven." Marcus says breathily and those very words puncture me like a physical stab. Fucking... Really?! "I have always longed to rule the Nightstand pack and with you as my Luna. So yeah, this is so long overdue." "Awww! I'm so excited that b***h fell for our scheme. Finally, I'll no longer be in her shadows anymore and trust me I'm going to crush everyone who disregarded me for being the Alpha's bastard daughter." Raven sneers. "But you know what's more fulfilling? It's that Roxxane will get shipped off to that old man in my place. While I gain the respect of the pack members." Raven has always been bitter and jealous of me so her words don't really get to me. In fact I only scoff at her ignorance. But what makes my blood boil so hard is Marcus. Just two nights ago, before the truth came out, we'd had intimacy. The night was so passionate and he had said a lot to me. How he couldn't wait for me to become the Alpha just so I'd have enough time for him. He made me feel so special. He had always made me feel that way until the day he stared me dead in the eye and confessed it was all a lie. A deceit he pulled just to walk his way easily to steal my crown. I will make him pay. Him. Raven. My father. They will pay for what they did to me. The smashing sound of lips brings me back to reality and I realize I've been digging my fingers in my flesh. They are now kissing each other and that's the cue I need to continue my journey.
