Chapter 23

Diamond was all alone in his secret room, a room where he kept all his memories. There were pictures of his parents, all kept in a big box and his father's pens and notepads.

His mother's accessories were also kept in one box.

After their death, he was not allowed to visit their funeral but the boxes were sent to him a day after.

From that day, his hatred for Silver increased as the delivery man told him the boxes were from Silver.

He thought Silver was mocking him for not being able to attend the funeral since everyone thought it was his fault their parents died.

He slowly squat in front of the box in which the pictures, while bringing the frames out one after the other, tears dripped from his eyes.

It has been years since the boxes had been delivered to his house but he has never for once opened it, this was his first time.

Staring at his late mother's eyes, he could not help but feel a sharp pain in his chest.

She was a beautiful Beta with a silky hair which was a mixture of gray and black. In the pack, she was the most beautiful and many other werewolves envied her because of it.

She was the only one who showed him care and affection.

His eyes drifted to his father who standing near his mother in the picture, he was staring at her and smiling.

Judging by the picture, one would be able to see how much he loves her.

But, Daniel Arstong never smiled like that to him. Diamond knew his father never liked him so they never really got along.

While he is locked up in the room for doing something trivial, his father would take Silver to watch the ocean and then they hang out, going to many other places.

Diamond never felt bad for hating Silver, they may be twin but to him, they were many reasons to hate him.

He dropped the frame on the floor and then proceeded to take another frame when he noticed it was one of him and Silver.

It was a baby picture of them.

He never knew they had a picture together. Scoffing, he threw it one side and was about to take the next picture when he heard a knock on the other.

He immediately wiped his tears with his palm before telling the person at the door to come in.

Finna slowly entered the room with her head bowed

"I have been searching for you for a while Alpha, I was told you are here" she tilted up her head and looked around "What is this room?"

"None of your business" Diamond sniffed "Why are you here? Is there a problem?"

"It is nothing of a big deal but....." She suddenly paused when she looked into Diamond's eyes.

Usually, his eyes is always fierce and terrifying anytime you look at them but this time his eyes were Sad and Lonely

"Alpha, are you okay?" She took a step closer to him.

"I am" Diamond replied

"But you don't look okay" she moved more closer to him "You look sad, have you been crying?"

"What does that have to do with you?" Diamond said sternly and immediately she knew she was already crossing the boundary so she moved back.

She seems to have forgotten for a moment but Diamond detest it when people are to close to him, even his own Beta can't be that close to him.

He is always staying 4 inches away anytime they are together. It is more like Diamond does not like any physical contact.

But deep down in her heart, she knew she was in love with him. She gave up everything including her whole family just to follow him and become his subject. But he does not have a eyes for her

Even when they are having a conversation, he barely looks at her.

But she knows she has a chance because unlike Silver, Diamond does not have a Luna which is probably a punishment from the moon goddess.

"What is it you wanted to say?" He bent and packed up the pictures back inside the box before closing it.

"Alpha, I think I found her way to make you the true alpha of the Moonwalker pack" She said.

Diamond suddenly got curious as his brow arched up "And what is that?"

"We just have to keep making him fall sick every single time"

Diamond scoffed in disbelief as a look of disappointment appeared on his face

"What the fuck are you saying? If we can do that then my dear brother would have been dead a long time ago, but his body is resistant to Spells"

"I am aware of that, Alpha" Finna's face was glued to the ground, trying to avoid the disappointed look on Diamond's face

Diamond sighed and clicked his tongue "if you are aware of it then why did you talk like you came up with a new idea?"

"There is a way we can make the spell work on him" She tilted up her again and this time their eyes locked "His Beta"

"What does David has to do with this? He is just a loser" Diamond grinned

"To you he is, but not to Silver. Silver is always feeling guilty anytime he is with him knowing fully well it is his fault David became a werewolf so we can use his guilt" Finna explained

"Use his guilt?" Diamond narrowed his eyes "Do you mean we have to cast the spell anytime he is with David?"

"Yes Alpha, because anytime he is with his Beta, he can't help but feel guilty so the spell will always work no matter what"

"Interesting" Diamond grinned and slowly rubbed his chin, as if thinking about something "But, What about his Luna, Rubby? Won't he heal as long as he is with her?"

"Which is why we have to get rid of her. I will cast a spell to kill her if you want me to"

"No" Diamond shook his head "Killing her won't be fun. I will take care of her myself so you just focus on Silver for now"

"Okay Alpha" She bowed.

Diamond turned to leave but suddenly stopped and turned back to look at her

"I don't know what feelings whatsoever you are having but stop it before it gets too late" He said and walked out of the room.

Finna jaw dropped in surprise

He knew the whole time that she likes him and yet he pretended he didn't know, for years.

Diamond made his way to his room whistling, not caring if he hurt someone's feelings or not.

Romance is the last thing on his mind and the moon goddess must have known that too which is why he was not given a mate from the beginning.

Of course he is handsome but his heart is rather made of steel and anyone who falls for him will only end up hurting herself.

His privilege of being an handsome Alpha was not useless, Female werewolves would easily throw themselves at him anytime he wants sex.

Rather than going to his room, he suddenly felt like smoking so he grabbed a cigarette and a lighter and headed outside but he stopped, dead in his tracks suddenly.

His other half was standing right in front of him, it was like he was staring at his own image in the room. Coincidentally, they happened to be putting on the same brand of Jacket and that made them both irritated

"Isn't it annoying enough how we are identical? Why do you have to wear this jacket the same day? Are you stalking me or what?" The corner of Diamond's lips moved up

"Don't delude yourself, I would not have grabbed the same jacket if only I knew you would be putting on" Silver said, his hands in his pocket like he heard something more important to say

Diamond took off the jacket and threw it in the dustbin beside him

"Seeing you in my pack is weird, what do you want?" He smirked

"I know it can only be you. You are the one who hates so much to the extent of wanting to kill me witha spell" Silver said sternly

"what are you talking about?" Diamond arched his brow.

He just finished having a conversation with Finn so why is he already talking about the spell?

That was when it downed on him that Finn was already working on it even before informing him.

"That bitch" he mumbled under his breath

"What is it you want that would make you leave me alone?" Silver moved closer, like someone who was ready for a negotiation

"What i want?" Diamond sucked in his teeth and rubbed his chin "The only thing I want right now is Rubby"

"You can't have her" Silver was calm, like he had already expected him to say that

"Why not?"

"Because she is my Luna"

"Leave the lady out of this, Diamond" Silver clenched his fist

"Then I guess there is nothing I can do about it" Diamond shrugged "I am gonna have to keep making your life hard".
