4. PLOT:
Exposition:
Alpha Diego, through his leadership, transformed the Usharia kingdom into the most feared among other neighboring villages. He was a fierce, possessive, and ruthless Alpha who would stop at nothing to protect his people. He wasn't a staunch advocate of marriage, hence his decision to rule his kingdom as a loner. He sees marriage as a bondage between two opposite s*x and he'll rather stay alone than have someone intrude.
The people of the Usharia kingdom adored him like a god. They practically worshiped the ground he walks on, despite his hostility towards them. However, the tragedy began to befall the kingdom when every crop started dying mysteriously, then it metamorphosed into animals. Great famine rampaged the kingdom and the people embarked on a hunger strike. Despite the catastrophe looming over the kingdom, Alpha Diego turned deaf ears and refused to intercede. His nonchalance was beginning to annoy his people. The once caring, but ruthless Alpha who loved his people has suddenly become a stranger to the same people. Every morning, the Alpha would wake up to see weeping villagers protesting outside his palace, yet he chose to ignore it as though it were nobody's business. The situation, however, got messier when every firstborn son started dying untimely. All affected families cried, lamented, and stormed the palace with corpses, hoping the Alpha will seek solutions elsewhere, but unfortunately, Alpha Diego's heart was made of stones, rocks, and bricks. Since he wasn't influenced, he never considered rescuing his people from this everlasting torment. The moon goddess finally decided to intercede for the Usharia people through Arindia, the high priestess. She stormed the palace on a morning and demanded to see the Alpha, where she disclosed he was going to die before age 30. Alpha Gideon was confused and sought answers. He can't seem to imagine himself dying at such a young age. Now he appears more interested because this great calamity has now affected his life. After consulting the moon goddess, Arindia further revealed the cause of the calamity that befell the kingdom. It was revealed that Alpha Diego's great-grandfather committed an atrocity many years which brought curses and everlasting torment upon the land. Unfortunately, the Alpha is set to be affected by the curse. To uplift the curse, Alpha Diego has to find a young virgin to make his bride. Once she bores him a son, she'll be freed and the curse lifted.
Inciting Incident:
Madeline's Uncle, Antonio, found out about the Alpha's hunt for a young virgin to bore him a son. He tricked Madeline into accompanying him to the palace for a quick job offered by the Alpha. Madeline had no option but to accept. Poverty had successfully scrubbed their face and working for the Alpha is synonymous with winning a lottery.
After arriving at the palace, Antonio pretends to use the restroom. He used the opportunity to have a meeting with the Alpha's BETA. There he received 20 pieces of silver In exchange for his niece, Madeline, and absconded afterward. Madeline waited for almost an hour, believing her uncle would show up, but he never did. He sold her to the cursed Alpha just to get rid of her completely. After Madeline's mother passed away, Antonio took the responsibility of providing for all her needs. He couldn't cope anymore and saw this as a perfect opportunity to recover every penny he spent on her.
Moments later, the Alpha walked in and broke the shocking news to her. Quite devastating and shocking for Madeline. She was aware her father was callous, but not to the extent of selling her off to the cruelest of Alphas. Madeline was helpless and couldn't fight back. She, however, accepted her fate. Unknown to her, Diego was her destined mate.
Three months after the s*x and still has no symptoms of pregnancy exhibited by Madeline. This worries the Alpha so much, who was so curious to break the curse. At 27, with barely 3 years left on the earth's surface, Alpha was beginning to think Antonio sold an infertile maiden to him for 20 pieces of silver. Fortunately for him, Madeline became pregnant a few days later. A double celebration for the Alpha, who was just one step closer to lifting the curse off the land. A few months gone and Madeline discovers she was nothing but a s*x tool to the Alpha. An instrument to break the spell cast upon him. Heartbroken by the Alpha and betrayed by her Uncle, she runs away with the Alpha's unborn baby to a strange land. Alpha Diego immediately sent his soldiers to comb the entire village searching for Madeline, but to no avail. She was long gone and no one can find her.
Rising Action: After Madeline's departure, the Alpha sought advice from Arindia, the high priestess. He intends to replace Madeline with another virgin from the community. It didn't go down well with Arindia, who strongly kicked against the drastic decision. “It was Madeline or no one,” Arindia warned, yet Alpha Diego was adamant. His ego won't allow him to chase her back. 6 months after her disappearance, Alpha Diego was gradually acknowledging the significance of her presence and regretted his hostility towards Madeline. He felt Madeline deserved better. He finds it difficult to forget about her, even though he tries to act strong. He ordered his battalion of soldiers to comb all the neighboring villages searching for Madeline and warned them never to return without his her and her unborn baby.
Climax: After several weeks of manhunt, the rumor got to Alpha Diego that Madeline was spotted without her pregnancy at Ogboki kingdom, the 5th neighboring village. It then occurred to the Alpha that his son had been born. The only solution
to break the curse upon the land and the constant nightmares he's been having. He got so excited and sent spies to the Ogboki kingdom to obtain useful information. But unfortunately, Madeline has moved out to Reno Village. The Alpha was furious and felt devastated and accused the moon goddess of being silent on his situation. Days later, he sent other spies to Reno village to seek information or bring Madeline and his baby home alive. After a few days of investigation, it was revealed that Madeline was on the verge of getting married to King Acuna of the village after his men recused her from wild animals whilst she eloped to the evil forest.
Dénouement: Devastated by Madeline's drastic decision to marry another King, Diego leads his army to Reno to stop the marriage from happening. They ambushed the Reno village and slaughtered every male wolf in the land, including King Acuna. Lucky, Madeline escaped into the evil forest while the fight ensued. It took the Alpha minutes to notice she was missing. Without delay, he orders his soldiers to go bring her back. Due to the baby in her possession, Madeline was unable to run faster. Unfortunately, she got caught and was taken to the Alpha, who forcefully took her back to the Usharia kingdom. Now that his son is born, Alpha Diego felt the need to free Madeline with no compensation and apology. She left the palace empty without her son.
Her departure from the palace worsened the situation even more. The death in the Kingdom increased, and Alpha Diego won't stop having nightmares. It became a major concern. He was curious to know why the curse hadn't been broken yet, despite the arrival of his son. He summoned the high priestess, who revealed the Alpha must find Madeline and apologized outrightly for treating her like a piece of trash. The high priestess further disclosed that Madeline was his destined mate, assigned by the moon goddess. What a difficult task for an alpha who had no idea of her whereabouts. But with the priestess's help, Madeline was located and brought back to the palace. Alpha Diego realized his mistakes and begged her to become his mate and bride. At first, she refused and feared it might be another trick to exploit her again. But on second thought, she considers the life of many villagers whose lives are at stake if she fails to forgive him.
Finally, she forgave him and immediately, Alpha Diego felt a strange movement inside of him indicating the broken curse. They had a royal wedding and lived happily ever after.
