ANDREW “If I won’t believe you, who will?” Her voice still echoes in my mind, a constant reminder of the trust she has in me. “We’ll get through this together.” A week has passed since I laid my heart bare to her, revealing my deepest fears and insecurities. But things never change, and things get better. But Luna still seems to be hiding something from me. I can’t shake the feeling that there’s more to her story than she’s letting on. Maybe she needs more time to open up, or maybe she’s protecting me from something she thinks will hurt me. Either way, I’ll be patient and continue to support her until she’s ready to share. But now as I stare at her sleeping face, brushing her hair, which was blowing gently in the breeze coming through the open window, I wonder what secrets lie behind those closed eyes and what struggles she faces alone. When she was born, the first time I held her in my arms, the ten-year-old me would have never imagined that this girl was going to be my reason to l
LUNA“Luna, are you okay?” Sarah asked as she cradled her now huge belly, concern evident in her voice.I smiled weakly and replied, “I’m fine. Just a bit tired.”“If you are tired, then I must have been exhausted from carrying this huge belly all around,” Sarah joked, trying to lighten the mood.Luna chuckled softly, grateful for Sarah’s attempt to make her feel better. “Let’s take a seat and rest for a bit,” Luna suggested, staring at the bench under a nearby tree. “That sounds like a good idea,” Sarah agreed, helping Luna to sit down and relax for a moment.I sighed, staring at the sunset in the distance, enjoying the peaceful moment with my friend.A month has passed since that day when both Andrew and I shared our pain with each other, and it feels like our bond has only grown stronger since then.We have grown closer through our shared experiences and vulnerability, finding comfort and support in each other’s presence. As the sun dipped below the horizon, my mind wandered to all
LUNA“Maybe your wolf was protecting you by remaining hidden.” Andrew answered the question that was running through my mind, his eyes reflecting a deep understanding of the struggle I had faced.“Your wolf's spirit knew that if she revealed her presence, you would be in more danger, so she stayed hidden to protect you until you were ready to embrace your true self.”I stare at him as more questions flood my mind. “Andrew...” I start, my voice barely above a whisper. “How do you know all of this?” Andrew simply smiles and says, “Experience has taught me to recognize the signs of a hidden spirit within someone, and your energy speaks volumes.” His words send a shiver down my spine, making me wonder what other secrets he might know about me.“Does anyone else also sense the hidden spirit within me?” I asked, as my curiosity was piqued. Andrew chuckles softly before replying, “For that, they have this close to you,” he said, pulling my body to him, barely leaving any space between us. “B
LUNA“How do I look?” I asked as I fixed the dresses in the mirror. The dress hugged my curves perfectly, making me feel confident and beautiful. But the color seemed a bit too bold for my usual style. Black is not typically my go-to color, but I must admit, it does make a statement.Andrew wrapped his arms around my waist, straining at me from the mirror with a smile. “You look stunning,” he whispered, his eyes filled with admiration, planting a kiss on my bare shoulder before adding, “But something seems to be missing.”I stared at myself in the mirror, trying to pinpoint what was lacking in my outfit. When Andrew wrapped something around my neck, “There, now you’re perfect,” he said, adjusting the necklace.A big emerald pendant hung from the delicate gold chain, adding a pop of color to my all-black ensemble. “It matches your eyes perfectly,” Andrew said, his smile widening.I smiled back at him, staring at both reflections in the mirror. “You? What else looks perfect?” I said, “W
“Why did you agree to a fight?” I asked as soon as we entered our room after the meeting ended. I couldn’t understand why Andrew would put himself in such danger without even considering the consequences. It seemed reckless and impulsive, especially since he knew how serious the situation could become.“Luna,” he said, putting his hand on my shoulder. “An alpha can never back down from a challenge. Backing down means defeat in our world, and I cannot let that happen.” His eyes held a determined glint, showing his unwavering resolve.“I know… But Ramon, you know how he is. He will stop at nothing to prove his dominance.” I said, concern evident in my voice as memories of the past came rushing back.“You trust me, Luna. I will protect you and our pack no matter what,” he replied, his voice filled with conviction.“I know that you will protect all of us, but Andrew, who will protect you ?” I asked, my worry for his safety evident in my tone. “I will protect myself,” he said confidently,
I joined my hands as I watched Andrew and Levin shake hands before the fight began. The tension in the air was palpable as they both took their stances, ready to face off in the ring. Sweat glistened on their foreheads, anticipation filling the air.No one had yet launched at each other, but the intensity of their gazes hinted at the impending clash of fists and determination. I held my breath, waiting for the first punch to be thrown, knowing that once it was, there would be no turning back. The crowd’s murmurs grew louder as the anticipation built, creating an electric atmosphere in the arena. But my eyes are only set on Andrew, who seems calm, circling around the ring. A focused look in his eyes gave nothing away. As the tension mounted, I could sense the energy between them crackling like electricity, ready to ignite at any moment as Levin launched himself at Andrew, throwing a powerful punch.But Andrew swiftly dodged the blow with a fluid movement, catching his hand in midair an
Please…. Please… Please….. “Help anyone!” I shouted, staring at pack members who stooped around me, looking indifferent to my distress. The panic rising in my chest threatened to overwhelm me as I realized I was truly alone in this dangerous situation.No one cared about Andrew as I struggled to catch my breath and find a way out of this predicament. “Andrew…breath… I will help you, please,” I pleaded, my voice cracking with fear. The silence that followed was deafening, echoing my desperate cries for assistance.His skin beneath my touch is starting to feel cold, and his skin is blue and clammy.I turn my head to stare at Lucas and Sarah, who are standing on one side, their expressions blank and uncaring. “Lucas, Andrew needs your help. Help me to take him to the healer,” I begged, tears welling up in my eyes as I realized the true extent of their indifference. “He is your Alpha. He fought for all of you, took care of you all, and now he needs you. Please, don’t let him die,” I implo
I groan as I feel my whole body ache from head to toe. Why am I feeling like this? What happened?I tried to move my hand, but it felt like a heavy weight was holding it down. I opened my eyes slowly, even with a piercing headache, and realized I was lying on the cold, hard ground. My hands are tied behind my back with a rough rope. Panic sets in as I struggle to remember how I ended up in this situation.“Andrew...” I mumbled under my breath as his face flashed in my mind. The last thing I remember was trying to save him from the deadly poison that Ramon gave him.I hope he is safe now, but where am I now? I tried to push myself up, but the pain in my head intensified. I scanned my surroundings, searching for any clue as to where I might be. The sound of footsteps approaching made my heart race with fear.“Leona...” a voice called out, sending shivers down my spine. “Or should I call you Luna?” The voice continued, sending a chill down my spine.Ramon’s face came to light as he settl
