C4 Magnus's POV - The Unwanted Wedding

"I don't want to marry her. I don't love her," I said, breaking the quietness at the dinner table.

It's been a long time since I raised my voice, let alone shouted at my parents. I could even hear the pounding of my own heartbeat.

I knew it wasn't just me who was surprised to hear my loud voice; even my mother looked at me with wide-eyed astonishment.

"Magnus, sit down now! You will shame our family with such disrespect," Mother shouted, her voice cutting through the night air.

I, not bothered by Mother's outburst, stayed defiant. “All you care just about shame, Mother? It's about my happiness. I won't marry to someone I don't love. I love Sabrina, not Tania,” I insisted, my voice determined.

That’s right. I feel that my words are right because I am protecting my feelings and my future. How could those words come out of my mother's mouth? It only ignited my anger further, making me believe that if I don't stand up for the truth I believe in, then who will?

BAM! Father slammed the table with all his might.

I was startled, and so was Mother. It's rare for Father to slam the table like this.

"Magnus! Watch your attitude! Do you think you're dealing with just anyone here?" Father reprimanded in response to my recent loss of control.

I felt guilty and only muttered, "Sorry. But, I'm not apologizing for not wanting to marry Tania. I only love Sabrina!”

Finally, I said those words. I had never really emphasized my true feelings about Sabrina because, after all, our parents had brought us closer since childhood. But, this time, this moment, I truly felt the need to assert that I had indeed fallen in love with that girl. And I hoped that my sincerity could save me from that absurd forced marriage

"Enough!" Mother interrupted. "Magnus, this marriage is for your own good as the leader of Black Fur. What would happen to your reputation, family, and our pack if they found out an Alpha descendant behaving irresponsibly and immorally, sleeping around before marriage?" Mother asserted firmly.

Before I could even speak, Father added to Mother's words, further cornering me, "Exactly. Just stop your stubbornness and rebellious behavior. We've all prepared for your marriage to Tania. With or without your approval, this marriage will proceed. You just need to show up at the wedding, that's all."

Once again, I was startled to hear my father's words. I couldn't comprehend how those words could come out of the mouths of both my parents, who agreed to corner me, their own child.

I could only sigh heavily, observing the members of the pack who came as guests to my wedding event. Yes, my father and mother managed to persuade me, or more accurately, mentally drag me to attend my wedding with Tania today.

I refused to believe that the figure of the girl in the white dress standing at the end of the aisle was Tania. I blinked several times because, at first, I seemed to see Sabrina, smiling gracefully in her wedding dress.

'Ah, as expected. She looks like she's living a dream,' I thought as I realized that the figure was indeed Tania, smiling happily and seemingly intentionally acting shy. I no longer cared if anyone caught me rolling my eyes in annoyance at the scene. I just wanted this event to be over.

To make matters worse, the wedding processional suddenly started playing by the orchestra group in this church.

I clenched my fingers tightly at my side and tightened my jaw. These were the thrilling moments. Not because I was anticipating Tania's arrival, walking with her coy smile next to her father, but because after this, I officially wouldn't be Sabrina's lover anymore.

A gentle voice from behind startled me, "To the groom, please stand facing the bride."

I was a lamb in the body of my werewolf self. The evidence was this time, I was just obedient. In the next few minutes, my ears seemed to be deaf, listening to the words exchanged between the pastor and Tania. I just followed along, "Yes, I do.” The regrettable words slipped out just as Sabrina appeared in the corner of my eye.

I wanted to turn my head to see Sabrina clearly. Yes, the love of my life just appeared in this room. But, the pastor said, "Now, both of you are officially a married couple, and you are allowed to kiss."

By the time we finished all of this holy whatsoever matrimony, Sabrina was nowhere to be found.

My chest felt painful. I never know that the heartache could be physically hurting like this. Especially when I saw her with that man.

"Damn, why did that damn Alpha come here too?" my mind couldn't contain the boiling anger when I saw the man who came with Sabrina was Tyler, the Alpha from the Silver Fang pack.

I simply ignored all the greetings and congratulations from the guests, members of several other packs, at this wedding party. My gaze was solely focused on Sabrina and every detail of her movements, until finally, the golden opportunity presented itself!

I didn't know what Tania would say, but I refused her hand and chose to say, "Sorry, I want to greet the guests first." Yes, unfortunately, Sabrina was my guest, even though I would prefer her as my bride tonight.

Sabrina, standing alone, seemed to be aware of my arrival. It felt awkward, but I dared to speak up, "I'm glad to see you're okay."

Sabrina smiled sarcastically and replied, "Of course? What do you want? Do I look miserable?"

"No, not at all. Ah, I just want to thank you for coming, but know that I don't want this marriage."

Sabrina didn't seem too interested in listening and chose to focus on the drink in her hand. "Really?" she asked casually.

I looked around before pulling her wrist away from the crowd of guests. A reluctant Sabrina shook off my hand and protested, "What are you doing?!" I quickly apologized and said, "I'm sorry again; I just want to explain what happened. Trust me, this marriage is not a real marriage."

"It doesn't seem like it, though,” Sabrina retorted bluntly.

I swallowed my saliva just to moisten my suddenly constricted throat. Me, an Alpha, the leader of the Black Fur pack, could be rendered silent in front of a girl whose appearance is so gentle like this.

"I understand. I'm hurt too. Know that on that night, I was under the influence of some secret potion, I don't know what,” I explained, trying to voice the truth that I had to articulate with as masculine a voice as possible.

I couldn't clearly read Sabrina's facial expression; it seemed she was ready to accept all of this, but there were also traces of her anger. Despite all that, she still looked exceptionally beautiful.

Unexpectedly, my beloved woman laughed, then turned to me with her sarcastic smile, saying, "Great, just throw your mistakes onto someone and something else.”

“I don’t, Sabrina. Please believe me. That damn potion made me submit to Tania, cause I thought she was you. I see you in her form. That's why when I woke up, I couldn't believe my own eyes that she is that damn Tania. My parents didn't want me to be the jerk who slept with a woman irresponsibly, cause I am an Alpha. So..."

"Enough, Magnus. I'm fine now. It's your problem, and you've already dealt with it, right? Besides, I'm grateful for your betrayal, so I could meet Tyler, my fate mate." Sabrina countered, her words cutting through my heart.

There was a lightning bolt without warning striking my eardrums. That's what I felt when I heard those words just now. She, who had lived all this time to love me, could announce that she's grateful to have found a fate mate other than me?

I couldn't accept all of this.

“If he's destined to be your mate, why doesn't he make you his Luna after meeting him?” I argued.
