Chapter: Epilogue~Kira~It has been one hell of a week. I knew it wasn't going to be roses and unicorns. I knew that once I stepped foot into Crescent Pack, they would want to have my head. If it wasn't for Alpha Jake who was beside me, and all the warriors that he took from Half Moon Pack, then I would have been dead by now. It took some time to quiet everything down. They didn't trust me until I recounted the story that the witch told me and where my heritage came from. I wanted nothing more than for everyone to live in peace. I proposed a merger with Half Moon Pack which at first they all refused since both Packs had long been sworn enemies but since the Pack had no alpha, and Jayden was the one who was running everything, he decided for the elders of the council to conclude on what they wanted.Both Pack elders went into a meeting. The elders from Half Moon Pack and the elders from Crescent Pack all came together. It took a lot of convincing for them to finally agree to a merger. Jayden was sh

Chapter: Chapter 158: Revealed~Kira~"Don't worry my love, you don't have to be nervous about it. She isn't harmful, even though she may appear intimidating.” Jake said, rubbing my shoulders in reassurance. I gulped down my nervousness especially when the witch walked in.I was expecting to see a grouchy old lady, but she was quite young. I removed the hood from my head. I had insisted on it so that no one would recognize us. I am glad that Beta Aiden decided to look after Sawyer.She sat down in front of us. Her eyes widened when she made eye contact with me."I can say that I am quite surprised to see you, Alpha Jake. The last time you were here was to make an inquiry about how your late Luna couldn't give birth to your child. Now you are here with a much different wolf. A very powerful one at that. I never thought that you were still alive. I thought you had died." My hold on Jake tightened. She didn't mean it in a scary way but I still felt shivers run down my spine."What do you mean by that? Do you know w

Chapter: Chapter 157: The hunt~Kira~To say that I was surprised was an understatement. I always knew that Ella was all kinds of evil, but I never knew that she would go to the extent of trying to lace my drink with poison.I don't know how she drank the poison, but I am grateful to whoever swapped the drink. I have had a taste of what consuming wolfsbane felt like and it wasn't a good feeling. I was still astonished at how I survived that torture. Maybe because I wasn't forced to drink it but Ella wanted to kill me on the spot. She wanted to give me a humiliating death just the way she gave to that Councilman.It has been days since her funeral and the execution of the bodyguard who was her accomplice. I don't even know the man and yet he had so much grudge against me.Things were beginning to quiet down in the Pack. Even though people still talked about Ella's sudden death, all these things that had been going on made me realize something and I didn't want to waste any more time. I decided to accept Jake back

Chapter: Chapter 156: Judgment ~Jake~When I heard the loud thud and saw Ella passed out on the floor, I thought it was one of her little pranks for seeking attention. I was going to commend her for staying drama-free at this party, but I guess I was too quick to speak.When I noticed that it wasn't a prank, and something was really wrong with her, I rushed towards her but Aiden was already there. With the help of some guests, Ella was moved into her room where the Pack doctor examined her.I thought that maybe she was sick or wasn't feeling well, but when he told me that Ella had consumed a large amount of wolfsbane, I was shocked.wolfsbane was banned from the Pack ages ago, so where the hell did that come from? And of all places, it had to be the party that I was throwing for Kira. Was someone trying to sabotage me purposely?He said there was no way to save her and that the poison was already spreading to her heart. I watched as Ella convulsed to death, the look of anguish on her face. I knew that she didn't w

Chapter: Chapter 155: Reverse ~Ella~This party was a colossal waste of time. The bitch has rarely stood up from her seat. She was supposed to be up and about so that she would take the poisoned drink that I'd arranged, from the server close to her.I couldn't take my eyes off her because I didn't want to miss the death show that was about to happen. All I needed her to do was take that glass of wine.She mingled with just a few people, but everyone wanted to talk to her. They were treating her as if she was some sort of celebrity and I know that she was loving the attention even though she pretended not to do so.What a sneaky little snake. Girls like Kira were so easy to predict. I knew that she had sex with Alpha Jake. Even though she pretended to hate him, she wouldn't waste any time spreading her legs for that jerk.I couldn't wait for the highlight of this party. Kira would soon be taken out as a corpse. In her next miserable life, she would wish that she had never met Alpha Jake or been his mate. Kira did

Chapter: Chapter 154: The last time~Kira~I never thought that I would ever have sex with Alpha Jake again but I can't say that I regretted it. There was this burning desire in me that I have been pushing away ever since I came back to Half Moon Pack, but yesterday I decided to give in to it and I can say that it was one of the best nights of my life.I knew that I had been lying to myself all this while, that somewhere within me I still had feelings for him.Well, since the moon goddess loves to play with me a lot, I decided that I have had enough of pushing Alpha Jake away. I was going to embrace my feelings for him.I accepted the idea of having a party for me and Sawyer. I just didn't expect a lot of people to turn up. I was hoping that not a lot of people would show up for the party but it seems as if everyone wanted to get a glimpse of Luna Kira, Alpha Jake's former mate whom he rejected.I know they were all waiting for some kind of drama. Maybe they were hoping for Alpha Jake to call all this a prank.I could

Chapter: Chapter 77: Wake up!~Storme~“Per radicem et saxum, per ignem et mare, scutum lucia me circumdat clare. Nullum Malum transeat, nullum maneat, Haec custodia nocte dieque stet.”(By root and stone, by fire and sea, A shield of light encircles me. No harm may pass, no ill may stay. This ward shall hold both day and night)The murmurs surrounded me, rhythmic and steady, their cadence weaving through my half-conscious mind. The words felt familiar, yet distant, as if they were buried deep in my bones, waiting to be unearthed.I felt a hand on my chest as the chants continued, and it felt like someone was retracing the birthmark on the back of my wrist. A little pain permeated through my skin, but it stopped almost immediately. The chanting stopped as well.My eyes fluttered open. A dim, flickering glow illuminated the space around me. The scent of burning herbs and something earthy filled the air. A woman stood before me, stirring a bubbling pot over an open flame. Her face, lined with wrinkles that somehow m

Chapter: Chapter 76: A taste of her medicine~Theo~The glass of alcohol in my hand was nearly empty, but the burn in my throat wasn’t enough to drown the rage consuming me. I paced up and down, my brain reeling of the sort of pain that I would mete out to the target that I had coming into the dungeon soon enough.She would taste exactly how it felt to die in the most painful manner. I would make sure of that.Keys jingled, and Fred and his men dragged in a figure covered from head to toe. They threw the body at my feet, and Fred yanked the leather bag off her face. The second she saw me, her eyes widened in horror, and she began to plead.“P-please, My Prince, spare my life, please!” Her voice was shrill and desperate. Her hands trembled as she reached for me, but Fred shoved her back down.“Shut your mouth!” he barked.He handed me a small leather bag. “We caught her trying to leave through the back of the palace. It looked like there were some unidentified guards trying to help her escape. We also found the bag on her.”I to

Chapter: Chapter 75: Leave~Karen~I limped down the corridor, my head held high despite the pain throbbing in my leg. The scent of blood clung to me, but I ignored the questioning glances from the passing servants. Let them look. Let them whisper. None of it mattered. I had won.The ragged cloth that Mona had managed to find for me reeked of dampness and was undeniably dirty, but it was better than walking through the palace halls completely naked.“Theo tried to kill me.” I muttered to myself incessantly, as if saying it over and over again would make it become a lie.I hadn’t believed that he would be able to do something like that to me, his childhood sweetheart. If I hadn’t escaped as quickly as I had, then I would have been the second body that would have been incinerated tonight alongside that witch’s body.His rage, his grief, him fighting me, it had all being for that wretched woman. Even in death, she clung to him like a curse. How else was I supposed to get rid of this darn disease that had infected

Chapter: Chapter 74: She must pay~Theo~The world stopped. The air in the room turned suffocating. I heard nothing. Felt nothing. It was as if my body had shut down completely. I couldn't process what I had just heard. My mind rejected the words, my body refused to accept them.My breathing turned ragged as I turned to the doctor, my voice dangerously low. "Check again."The doctor swallowed hard, his face pale. "My Prince.. I've checked multiple times. There is no pulse. She has stopped breathing."Something inside me snapped."NO!" I bellowed, grabbing him by the lapel of his coat and shaking him violently. "She’s not dead! She’s not dead, you hear me? You’re lying! Do something!" My voice cracked as I shook him harder. "Bring her back! Bring her back right now!""Theo!" Fred grabbed my arms, trying to pull me off the doctor. "Theo, stop!""She’s not gone! She can’t be gone!" My vision blurred. My chest ached with unbearable pain. "Storme! Storme, wake up! Wake up!"I fell to my knees beside her bed, clutching her

Chapter: Chapter 73: Death~Theo~Despite being threatened by my father to stay away from Storme, I still found my way to her bedside that afternoon. There was no obvious improvement even after all the injections that the doctor had administered to her. She still looked pale and deathly.I knelt by the edge of her bed, putting her cold hand in between mine, trying to warm her up at least. But nothing was working.“Please, Moon goddess, please don’t take her away from me,” I prayed, “Take every other thing in my life, but please, return my mate to me. I can’t live without her.”I brought her hand up to my face, my heart breaking over and over again at what she had been reduced to. My once vibrant Storme, reduced to this figure who couldn’t do anything to help herself.She couldn’t scold me for doing things that she had warned me not to do, or for wanting to mark her even when she had made it clear that it was dangerous. I would give anything right now to hear her nagging at me. I would give every single thing.I

Chapter: Chapter 72: Kill intuition~Theo~I burst through the doors of Storme’s room, my heart pounding with unregistered fear. I pushed my body against the door, throwing it open. The moment my boots hit the floor, I froze. Droplets of blood littered the floor like scattered rubies, leading toward the place where she should have been.My wolf howled in rage at the gruesome sight. A cold, unnatural chill crawled up my spine, suffocating me in dread."Theo, calm down—""Storme!" Her name left my lips before I could even think. My voice was rough, desperate. But the room was silent. She wasn’t there.Fred stepped in behind me, gripping my shoulder. "Theo, you need to calm down."Calm down?I turned on him with a glare. "Who did this? Who the hell dared to poison the queen?"He opened his mouth, but before he could answer, "Where is she?" I grabbed the nearest guard by his collar, my grip tight enough to choke the breath from him. "Where the hell is she?""Th-The pack hospital!" The guard stammered, his eyes wide with fea
