Josephine could not take her eyes away from the man who had captured her attention at the first glance. The wolf in her was prancing in excitement and she could not control her joy. It was as though she had been crowned the Queen of the world and now everyone was looking up to her in respect and envy.

'How wonderful it would be if Alpha Azimir were to win the contest and become the Alpha King while I become his wife!' She exclaimed in her mind and immediately after, conjured the scene where she and Azimir were being crowned and declared as the King and Queen.

Just like her father, she too hated the competition. Whoever won the contest would be crowned the King. If that were to happen, she and her family would have to give up their titles. She had to give up her identity as the Princess of Aranill and return to her kingdom, Uraz where her father was still the Alpha. 

Josephine preferred being the Princess of Aranill as well as the daughter of the Alpha of Uraz. She did not wish to give up on either of the titles. But she was helpless in this matter. This was a rule created by the Moon Goddess and though she found it to be unfair, she could not refuse to abdicate her title as the Princess when the time came. 

Since the year had changed to that of the moon, Josephine had been on pins and needles as she thought of ways to keep her title. But she had been unable to find a way and as time passed, she was getting stressed by the issue. 

In a few days, the competition for the throne would start and she was yet to find a solution to her problem. But the moment she saw the Alpha of Ideni, her heart danced in happiness while her mind started to conjure plans. She had found the perfect way to retain her identity as the Princess of Aranill and if her plan worked out, then she would even become the Queen of the world.

Josephine did not doubt Azimir's abilities at all. She had met most of the Alphas who would be contesting for the throne before. It was not until she met Azimir that she realized how vast the difference between him and the others was. He was born to be the King while the others were meant to worship him.

Josephine's blush intensified when she met Azimir's gaze and she lowered her eyes as she bit on her lips, making sure to appear as alluring as possible. But to her dismay, Azimir ignored her completely as he walked beside the Alpha King.

'Did Alpha Azimir not see me?' She wondered. 'He must have missed it. Otherwise, how could he resist me?' 

Josephine was confident about her beauty and since her coming of age ceremony, she had been receiving a lot of alliances. But she had rejected all of them. None of them had appealed to her and she was glad she had waited for she had found the best at the last.  With so many men willing to marry her, Josephine was sure about her abilities. 

She did not care about the chance she had missed. She still had time until the man departed for the kingdom of Ideni. Besides, she could even approach him during the contest when he would be at Aranill for a long time. So, Josephine did not think much about it, wishing for her father to leave and give her an opportunity to take the first step.

But it was all her wishful thinking. He accompanied the young Alpha as they discussed the matters of the kingdom, switching topics conveniently, making the elegant lady lose her elegance slowly. Other than the time when she had asked the man to stay in the palace, she had been unable to initiate a conversation with him and she was losing her patience slowly. 

The wolf in her was howling, thrilled to find a man of their liking. Their long wait had been fruitful and all that remained was for her to pursue him and make him hers.

'Aylin, do you even know that someone is now eying your man?' Azimir pondered when he felt the lady's gaze on him again. Even though he was conversing with King Myron, he had his other senses on alert and every time, Josephine looked at him, he could feel her desperate and intense gaze on him.

Azimir had long accustomed to gazes as such and he understood what she wanted of him. But he already had Aylin and even if he did not have her in his life, he was sure that he would not have cared for Josephine.

The Princess of Aranill was a beautiful woman. He accepted it. But he could almost read her ideas and he knew what her ambitions were. Her thoughts were evil, just like her father's and Azimir did not intend to associate with people like them.

"Alpha Azimir," King Myron's voice snapped his chain of thoughts and Azimir stared straight ahead, admiring the beautiful flowers in the garden. But none of them were even comparable to Aylin's beauty and he sighed lightly, wondering how she was doing.

'I hope she is fine.' He thought to himself, shaking his head at his stubborn girl. He then focused his attention on the man beside him, not forgetting about Aylin in the meanwhile. She was slowly becoming the sole reason for his existence.

"Alpha Azimir, I heard about a mishap that happened in Ideni on the first night of the moon." Myron started, a cunning smile making its way on his lips as he waited for Azimir to reply. He had already received the details about the night from his men. But he still wanted to test if Azimir would be honest with him or would he try to hide the dark truth.

Azimir's smile slipped when he recalled the dreadful night. "Your Majesty, how do I tell you?" He hesitated. "It is true that a mishap happened on the night of the moon."

Myron was surprised. Yet he did not comment about it, waiting for the man to continue.

"I could not control myself that day and my wolf almost killed my Beta."

Azimir's honesty surprised both Myron and his daughter. While Joesphine stared at him in admiration, Myron had an inexplicable expression as he scowled in his mind. Azimir's honesty had rendered him speechless.

It was not a secret that wolves lost their composure on the first night of the moon. He had lost his calm a lot of times and in his muddled state, he had killed a few wolves who were weaker than him. So, he had no reason to complain about the man who had only hurt his Beta.

"Your Majesty," One of the guards bowed before him and Myron was glad that he had come at the right time for he did not know how to continue the conversation. 

"Minister Torin is requesting for your presence. He has an important matter to discuss, Your Majesty."

"I will be in the throne room in a few moments," Myron stated and turned to his daughter. "Josephine, I have some matters to deal with. Please accompany Alpha Azimir until then."

"Yes, Father." Josephine's eyes gleamed in delight.. This was the opportunity she was looking and it had come to her even without her doing anything.
