Chapter: Dead Inside Chapter Sixty NineAfter the encounter with Naomi in the woods, Daykan had been in a daze.He had walked to his car stark naked, not a care in the world if anyone would see him; luckily that hadn’t happened.He had been conscious enough to slip into clothes and enter his car.But thirty minutes later, he had found himself parked in front of his apartment at the estate. By some miracle, he had managed to drive there without killing himself or anyone else. He had spent the day wallowing in misery.He looked at the clock and realized that it was time for the pack run. Maybe a run would help clear his head.But what would clear the debris in his chest from all the pieces of his broken heart?He wore a pallium and prepared to head out. Palliums are cloth made from a special material which wouldn’t rip apart when a werewolf transformed. It’s not always convenient to change back to human form and be butt naked. So they had appealed for something to be made.Word was the Moon Spirit had so

Chapter: Kind HeartChapter Sixty Eight“Moon Spirit?” Naomi was puzzled.Why was she shocked though?If werewolves were real, why not spirits too? “Yes. The Moon Spirit is our maker. We regard her as a divine deity. She’s basically our god. She’s the one who matches us with mates as well.” Senina explained patiently. “Only few werewolves are lucky to see her in their lifetime.”“Wow, and she appeared because of Daykan.” Naomi was impressed. “Yup, and in front of a number of people. My dad told me the story. He’s an Alpha too and had been waiting for Daykan’s delivery. He was against killing the baby but it wasn’t his pack and he was outnumbered.Until there was a sudden flash of light and she was floating in front of them. Although it was a sad situation, seeing the Moon Spirit is one of his best memories.” Senina smiled fondly. Xinoc’s face always lit up when he described the Moon Spirit.”What did the Moon Spirit say to them?” Naomi was fully interested in this story and not just because it concer

Chapter: Chaotic Backstory Chapter Sixty SevenSenina froze for a second.She had thought about this moment more than a few times. The day her best friend would finally find out that she wasn’t human.She had mixed feelings towards the whole thing.Would Naomi accept her for who she was or be terrified?She hadn’t pestered Daykan like Zekell had about telling Naomi the truth about what he was.She had been content with the convenient stalling.She had tried not to be worried about it.After all, Daykan and Naomi were fated mates. So there was a high chance Naomi would accept him for who he was; and in turn, her.Over the years, she had heard stories about other werewolves who had revealed themselves to humans. Some didn’t take it very well.In fact, there was a popular story passed down from generation to generation, about a male werewolf who had revealed himself to his closest friends. They had drugged him and then taken him to the authorities. This was one of the reasons for the strict rules about humans kn

Chapter: Deal BreakerChapter Sixty SixNaomi stared at Daykan.The image of Sharon’s mutilated body was seared into her memory for life. It was heartbreaking to think that one of Daykan’s kind had done that to her; unprovoked for that matter.Sharon was such an amazing person and she had ended up just being food for a monster.All her dreams and accomplishments had been for nothing. But could she really blame Daykan for that?No one was blaming her for the serial killer they had recently caught in Texas just because he was a human being like her.He hadn’t done anything to harm her or someone she knew.If she pulled the trigger, wasn’t it just coldblooded murder? Those were the thoughts her brain was filling her mind with.Her heart was on the same page with her brain but for different reasons. This was Daykan; the man she had once thought was the love of her life.She couldn’t just erase all the moments and laughter they had shared. All the whispers of passion he had murmured in her ears during lovemak

Chapter: Secret Revealed Chapter Sixty FiveThis was never how Daykan would have wanted Naomi to find out.But now, the cat… umm… werewolf was out of the bag.Ever since Senina and Zekell had left the gym, his mind had not been at rest.Naomi had never mentioned resuming at the clinic today; and he was curious about the way she had found.So he had hurried down here and traced her scent to the woods. He saw her in danger and had barely been aware of changing. The next thing he knew, there was a wolf in his mouth and he was tearing the thing apart.In spite of the situation, Naomi almost laughed at how stupid she sounded.How could she even have thought this monster in front of her was her boyfriend? She was still sitting on the ground. Her gun had fallen close to her leg. All she needed to do was carefully reach out and she could grab it.Who was she kidding? The gun hadn’t been able to stop the tiny wolf. It certainly didn’t stand a chance against this huge beast. The one that had killed Sharon.The creat

Chapter: Cold Cuts Chapter Sixty FourNaomi got to the clinic, switched off the ignition and just sat in the parking lot staring at the steering wheel.But her mind wasn’t in the jeep with her. It was already in the clinic.She hadn’t been back there since that night. Anita, Dan and Sophie were the ones who had cleaned up.They were also the ones who had been handling things in her absence. Although the clinic currently wasn’t as functional as it used to be.Someone stopped by daily to take care of the in house patients, otherwise it was locked up. And all the townspeople knew that if there was any animal related emergency they had to put in a call so a staff could be there to take care of it.All other appointments had been put on hold.But Naomi thought it was time to finally fully open up for business.Earlier on, she had called Sophie and informed her that no one needed to worry about coming into today. She would take on the duty of feeding and checking on the animals who were admitted at the clini
