Marry to Alpha or Vampire?

It had been some time since Kane was imprisoned, and everything in the town was running smoothly. Hazel knew it was all thanks to their new Alpha, Cyril. He was indeed a good leader, but he also had a knack for being a jerk, especially when it came to flirting with her.

“Hazel, that dress suits you,” Theo said when he saw Hazel descending the stairs in a red dress. She seemed to know it was a good day today.

“Thanks, big brother,” Hazel said, elbow-bumping Theo in return. Even in a dress, her behavior hardly fit that of a lady.

“Butter sandwiches, anyone?” Grandma emerged from the kitchen, holding a plate and smiling.

“I can smell the food!” Rita exclaimed, salivating.

“Don’t rush, little one,” Hazel was in a good mood today, and her attitude toward Rita became a bit friendlier.

“Theo, don’t you need to head over early to help?” Hazel looked at Theo, who was armed as if he was going into battle.

“Not yet,” Theo replied, grabbing a sandwich and devouring it quickly.

“But I can’t wait.” Hazel clapped her hands to get rid of the crumbs and then pulled Theo outside with her.

As for Grandma, she had grown unaccustomed to participating in such events, claiming they gave her nightmares. Hazel knew it was a joke, considering Grandma knew strong wolves like Gerard.

Hazel and Theo walked to the town’s central square, where a temporary stage had been set up. A crowd had gathered, engaging in various conversations, their faces displaying a range of emotions.

“Look, she’s here again,” Jay pointed in Hazel’s direction. Today, Hazel undeniably looked even more radiant. He had a lecherous smile, and it was no wonder Putnam had been captivated by her in the past.

“Jay, are you that thirsty?” Ada scoffed, looking disdainfully at Jay’s expression. Such a creature who only thought with his lower half was embarrassing.

“Hazel is nothing without Putnam. She’s nothing now that he’s gone,” Ada stared at Hazel with icy eyes, failing to understand what Putnam had ever seen in her when she herself was clearly superior.

Karin merely smirked, not joining the conversation. She was a truly envious person.

“Oh, dear Ada, save that comment for when you become Luna,” Jay rolled his eyes. He may not like Hazel, but that didn’t mean Ada could boss him around.

“Jay, shut your mouth!” Ada stomped her foot in frustration.

Hazel’s keen hearing left her unable to miss the trio’s conversation.

Wolves fighting against wolves; that was their true nature. Hazel couldn’t fathom how she ever played around with this rotten bunch. Oh, right, it was all because of Putnam.

Thinking of Putnam, Hazel touched her heart. She, too, had been hurt.

“Are you okay?” Theo looked at Hazel. He knew about Putnam.

“Big brother, you underestimate me,” Hazel said with a smile. She had long stopped caring.

When the sun was at its zenith, Alpha Cyril appeared, bathed in sunlight, and walked to the center of the square, surrounded by a group of robust werewolves.

Cyril’s presence was impossible for anyone to ignore. He was so dazzling and charismatic.

Theo walked up to Cyril to engage in a conversation, but Cyril’s gaze lingered on Hazel beside them. Her brown hair cascaded casually over her shoulders, gently swaying in the wind. She wore a red dress that complemented her porcelain-like skin, a rare sight among werewolves. Her features were delicate, and a confident smile played at the corner of her lips.

Hazel noticed as Kane was led to the stage by a group of people. His expression remained disdainful, as if he didn’t understand why he had failed. It was almost laughable for an Alpha to end up in such a situation.NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

“You’ve all betrayed me, cowards, cowards,” Kane noticed some familiar faces among his people. He still tried to resist, but he lacked the strength. Cyril didn’t even need to intervene; his subordinates could have torn Kane apart.

“Ada, you came. You still love me, don’t you?” Kane suddenly spoke to Ada. Hazel raised an eyebrow when she heard this, suspecting Ada had a one-night stand with Kane. Otherwise, how could Kane utter such words?

“Shut up; you’re a captive now,” Ada said, keeping an eye on Cyril’s reaction, noticing he hadn’t looked at her. There was no way she could let anyone know about her involvement with Kane. Her new target was Cyril, and she couldn’t believe she had been with Kane before.

“Theo, you’re my Beta, and you’ve betrayed me. I’ll curse you forever,” Kane roared, and his wolf howled inside him.

But his shouting was more of a lament before death, and nobody paid any attention to what he said. He had never cared about the lives of his own people.

Theo observed coldly, then turned to Cyril. “This is my Alpha.”

“Useless, all of you are useless. Who will save me? I appoint him as Beta. Who’s willing?” Kane kept struggling pointlessly. The people in the square remained unmoved; they had seen through Kane.

“Do you think Cyril is a good person? No, he’s ruthless and more cold-blooded than me.”

“Get ready to be tortured to death by him,” Kane’s voice was like a machine gun, continuously talking.

Cyril signaled to the guards standing beside him; he didn’t want to hear Kane’s voice anymore. A prisoner like Kane didn’t deserve to speak. The guards received Cyril’s orders and stuffed a pair of socks into Kane’s mouth, silencing him.

Kane looked incredulous; he was an Alpha and shouldn’t be treated like this!

Hazel watched Kane like this, and he did look pitiful, but he was more despicable.

“Hey, Kane. You imbecile, can you shut up now?”

“Put away your promises that will never be fulfilled because you’re about to die,” Hazel gave Kane a punch on the stage and then smiled at the audience below.

She remembered all the ridiculous things Kane had done, making her realize he wasn’t worth any pity. The applause from the crowd was thunderous, all cheering for Hazel’s actions.

“Oh, Hazel, how do I evaluate your behavior?” Rita questioned. She was genuinely worried that Cyril would retaliate.

“Just cheer for me, that’s all you need to do,” Hazel smiled brightly.

Hazel could feel Cyril’s eyes on her, but soon he withdrew his gaze. She noticed his furrowed brows and tightly pursed lips.

Hazel quickly left the stage, seemingly forgetting that she was not in her territory. Could she have angered Cyril again?

“Theo, it’s time,” Cyril said to Theo.

The square and the surrounding areas were packed. Hazel couldn’t even count how many people were present. Their expressions were like they were looking at a stranger. Everyone knew what kind of person Kane was, and no one felt sorry for him.

“He’s not worth mourning. We fought for him, but he ran away.”

“Kill him, kill him.”

“Alpha Cyril, Alpha Cyril.”

Hazel listened to the chanting from the crowd, and her heart was moved. Their families had fought for The Setting Moon Pack, sacrificed to defend their Alpha, and Kane, the inept leader, had fled, leaving behind a mess. He was not fit to be an Alpha.

Hazel thought of her mother, who had caused the death of her father. She found it hard to forgive her, but in this matter, her mother was also a victim of Kane. One of her relatives had died because of Kane, so Kane was not worth mourning.

Alpha Cyril, though stern, would never abandon his wolf pack. In the midst of the clan’s roar, Kane’s head was twisted off. He tried to struggle, but no one gave him the chance.

Kane’s severed head rolled on the ground, and those who saw it would kick it in anger. Cyril quietly observed everything until the time was right, and then he ordered someone to set a torch to it.

“Burn him.” Alpha Cyril’s voice was deep and hoarse, issuing an irresistible command.

The surrounding pack members watched coldly, and no one felt sorry for Kane’s death. No one cared about an inept Alpha who had abandoned the pack.

Hazel saw that Kane’s eyes remained wide open, as if he couldn’t find peace in death. However, his body and head were soon engulfed by flames, leaving behind only a pile of ashes on the ground.
