Audrey’s POV

“Well….are you heading to the main grounds now or are you girls just out for some air?” I choked on a chuckle at the mention of air. It took everything in me not to push it out and make a sound—or rather, an awkward noise that would draw the attention of everyone around me.

“Ah—”

That’s what it sounded like. Imagine the sound of a mosquito breezing by your ear. Now amplify that sound you hear and compress it into a one-second clip, that was pretty much the sound I made trying to hold by my sudden outburst.

I knew there was only one thing to next to save me and that was to cough out the rest of the funny bone. Am I bipolar?

The attention I didn’t get before found me now. Sabrina and The beta who had been engaging in a sudden hush chat turned to face me. I knew because I could see both their heads turn at the same time as they watched me with concerned faces. Well, Sabrina looked concerned. The beta looked like she pitied me. I must have been the equivalent of a sick puppy

    Audrey’s POVIt was as I expected but better. Way better.There were two ways I saw this going. One, either it came as a form of partying and everybody would be properly hammered by the time it was midnight when they say the moon is at its brightest and fullest. I didn’t have the proof and never felt any different during the full moon anytime in the past.Every time I look back at the past and think about how there were many more ways I could have lived through and experienced it. But it was clear I wasn’t the lucky one, I had heard and experienced it too many times.My attention was taken to the side of the reverse hill ground. They seemed to be another crowd taking interest in something that was going on there. When Guillemette mentioned it was a huge ground that went lower as it neared the center, I thought about it just being a shallow ground but standing at the edge of it, I realized his explanation was a more humble version of what was before me. Soon the little group that had c

    Trudeau’s POVStanding by the tree of fairy tales—the largest tree in the woods where people believed spiritual creatures emanated from. I wasn’t a huge fan of folklore so I just let it be whatever it was, that wasn’t until there was a need for me to be present at the grounds where the festival was happening. It took everything in me not to get to the guest in and lock myself safe away from all of the problems that transitioned from just being there in the first place. First of all, the tradition was way too old for its good that at this point, I think people just did it because they wanted to keep doing it and not because they believed in its good faith.“I don’t know how long you think you can dodge this but eventually, you are going to have to leave and get down there.” Anthony who had been sitting on a fallen log spoke up, looking away from his phone.“Says the guy who is still seated here with me.” I shot back at him, getting defensive.“Oh yeah…” he chuckled. “Says the guy who i

    Trudeau’s POV“What the…”I zoned out of whatever Anthony was saying, straining my ear on the left to pick up any signal. Turning the phone light back to my face, I found out that the signal had completely gone off.“fuck…” he trailed odd“What??”“Is he dead?” Anthony asked.I kicked him to revitalize his pain and therefore let him announce how much alive he still was even though he had managed to go silent while sucking up all the pain. I didn’t like it when I tortured people and they didn’t react, it was a level of dishonesty and lack of satisfaction.I kicked him in the rib. “Shut the fuck up.”The line finally connected and Guillemette was on the other end, the noise from quite a distance away from the ground blew loud into my ears, causing me to take the phone away from my ears before it started to bleed. The light beamed in my face and from the short distance, I could hear him saying ‘hello’ severally.I placed the phone on the loudspeaker. “I got a skilled intruder here. Call

    Audrey’s POVAnd that was exactly how I was drawn away into a sea of Lucia, coming in different shades and sizes. I noticed a trend in their outfits. Barefoot, a bold white dress with flowers patterned on it at total random areas. I loved the concept and it made me feel like I was surrounded by fairies. Part of the downside of this moment was the stares I got. I couldn’t exactly place it, whether it was envy or just the looks that they usually gave to someone they had never seen before. Especially considering the history of the dress and the person who wore it before me.Stop berating yourself!!I screamed at myself internally, angry about why I brought it upon myself to be brave when it came to a time like this. She looked at me weirdly and Immediately guessed that I must have spoken my thoughts out loud.“I said that out loud??” I asked with a shy smile.“Well, you didn’t exactly whisper.” She smiled. And soon, it quickly turned into a grin. “I would just pretend then like you didn’

    Trudeau’s POV Going from almost killing an intruder to making sure that the pack understood I wasn’t encouraging people to steal was something I didn’t expect to go through. *Flashback* “You got to be kidding me.” Sabrina’s voice arrested me moments away from the attack. How did she get here so fast?? That was all I could think of right now. “How??” She gasped. “Intruder. I got attacked. He kind of fell on his wrong side and now he’s going in and out of consciousness.” She bent on her knees, taking a deep breath before hovering both of her hands over his body. The next thing I knew, she was staring at me with wide eyes. “Fell on his wrong side?!!!” She looked so outraged, the invincible guilt began to sip in slowly catering to the bank of growing emotions I have been having lately. I always told Anthony the things that gave me trouble but this time, I was sure he didn’t want to hear of this. There was a very fine line between what he thought was my stoicism and a plain

    Trudeau’s POV “There is a part of me that needed to be explained to…what did you do?”I recognized that voice anywhere, my head immediately went in its direction.“Claudia??” *Flashback*“You don’t exactly have to be around her but please, help her feel welcome. She lost her parents in an attack and I am her only other family member left.” I could hear my mom pleading with my dad after a while of being put in a place of complete dishevelment. I knew something was wrong even though no one was saying anything. All I could remember was my mother rushing out into the night and looking so sad and dissociated with a lot more eye bags under her eyes than usual. Then, she would tell me that the reason she had little eyebags was because as a Luna, she had so much to oversee sometimes that it weighed down her eyes. I believed now that she was telling me the softest version of the truth and not how my father was a control freak even to her last departing breath. Claudia was just nine when my

And for your sake and mine, please pick the last girl as the winner, she wore mom’s dress to the best I have ever seen it. Everything about it is so worth it. I hope you don’t be a bitch and choose someone else just because you don’t want people to know you are fucking.” She dropped so randomly, it felt like a scenario where someone flickers water at your face to wake you up, only this time the person slowly walks away back to their seat to act like none of it ever happened. I stared at her and shook my head. For some reason I wasn’t nervous, just surprised. I Made a mental schedule to ask her how exactly she knew aside from the fact that she was just the kind of person to be chill and intense at the same time. “Whoa…” The announcer shouted loud enough for everyone to hear. A loud cheer broke out. “I have to say this again, WHOA!” This time, they laughed heartily and a smile tricked its w

    Audrey’s POVThe woman took me to a tent somewhere outside the ground boundaries. I had no idea there were tents set up there. They buzzed with excitement asking me so many questions like who I was and what pack I came from. One particular woman kept sniffing at my hair.“That smells so good. Is that jojoba?” Her smile wrinkled her eyes in the cutest way. She reminded me of a woman who took care of her garden and cats and made awesome tea for her guests.“Yes, it is. Is it bad??” I asked, picking a bunch of my hair to smell for myself.“No! It smells good. We will be Braiding your hair into a single ponytail, I hope you don’t mind?”I shook my head when another pushed me gently by the head into the tent. Inside was so much warmer than outside, it made me realize how cold it was out there. The inside is scented of candlewood and some kind of wax. I couldn’t put my finger on it but it smelt so good. My body ached. I didn’t notice because of all the adrenaline my body has been using as c

We need to know he is of our bloodline and fit to take the throne for the future.” Phil said.I could have argued that part too about how I have been the only one to lay with her since she had arrived at the pack but even I felt I would be disrespecting Audrey in a way. I believed I was the father of her child, plus the defeat in his voice gave me life. I agreed to the terms willingly. Even though I didn’t want to, it was the tradition to test for the bloodline of a child to show he was in line to take over if anything ever happened to me. “Why don’t we do that right now? I will go and bring the mother of my child and my five-day-old child. Here and here, Phil. Let this be where everything about this subject ends. After this, I do not want to hear you talk ill about Audrey or anyone else in this room. Is that understood?”Everyone gave some form of a reply from nodding to mouthing a not-very-audible yes.I took some seconds to t

I heard it in her voice. That angst against me and the decision I made. From past encounters, I have known her to share a close bond with the shaman, and therefore his idea. Several others whispered amongst themselves as I walked by the long dull table that was placed in the center of the hall.I have watched this room shift into a jury room, back to a council room and a place to party in the past. Today, it felt like my own throne was my judgment seat as I drew it back and sat in it, looking at faces that had added a line of wrinkle and of course, the clear expressionless face from Guillemette who sat on the last seat at the end of my right hand.“Good evening, council.” I nodded to Elder Fiona in p

    Audrey’s POVI never thought pain could feel this unearthing before. I could swear I was in the afterlife at some point during the operation. I thought they would tear my stomach up like I heard them whisper amongst themselves while they thought I was completely under the drug's seduction. There were moments in between where I sifted in and out of consciousness while wondering where the fuck I was. With the pain racking through my body and none of the drugs keeping them fully at bay, I was left watching the life show while wondering where this would leave me after it was all over.At a point, I had completely dissociated from the entire procedure going on between my legs. I asked myself, “How did I get here…”With no one else to answer but myself, I kept on watching. The moment the sound of my child hit my ears, life zapped back into me. I don’t know how I was able to tell it was a boy from his first cry. I could barely even see him though his body hovered over the cover clothes that

    Trudeau’s POVWho paid to have my sister and Audrey killed months ago? This question took a ride back with me to the hospital. Before that, it haunted my mind while I tried to pick out the most comfortable clothes for Audrey. I recalled how she would avoid the darker clothes and stick to the lighter ones because according to her, they made her feel less hot. I understood the science of it. The rest of her things I just picked at random from flashbacks of what I have seen her use. A little bit of everything.Before embarking on the journey, I was kind of tempted to ask what the current situation was but hesitated last minute. I picked out some of her favorite flowers by the garden, again a little bit of everything.By the time I got to the hospital, the time was a few minutes past nine. I just feel the energy, the buzz. It was electric, very daunting and it was making its presence known. I was still approaching the entrance, roughly parking at a spot away from the entrance where the p

    Trudeau’s POVI Can’t tell how long we waited. If you ask me, I will say it would take forever. I rose myself up and rode to the very high mountains that were the pack upstate. I needed to clear my head. There were already Elders by my door by the time I arrived first in the morning. ‘The doctors were still performing surgery ’ was the reason why I picked up and returned to the pack. After sleeping in my car and getting tired of the clothes I was wearing, I decided to leave and keep everything else secondary.“Alpha. You are back…but without the breeder.” Yousef said. An older man who was in charge of the northern territory but stepped down from his role and continued to hold a table on our council because no one in the band district knew this section better than him. I liked him, he was useful, and multiple times has he shown his usefulness. I smiled at him.“Yes, I arrived alone. She is still being taken care of by the doctor. I only came to get some necessities and go back to her.”

    Trudeau’s POVShe passed out right in my arms. But she was still breathing. That was all that mattered to me. That she was still breathing.“Alpha, we need to make room for her. There is a chance that we might have to go into surgery.” The doctor tugged me by the arm gently. One looked at him and immediately let me go. I looked towards Audrey and Cynthia, they were the only familiar faces I knew here aside from Peter who has been the Lycan family doctor for as long as I can remember. I couldn’t bring myself to let her go. That would mean uncradling her head and letting her go through this alone.“I am here, Audrey. I am here!” I found myself yelling at her. I aggressively kissed her forehead. The need for her to feel my presence wherever she was deep in there was all that concerned me at the moment. I needed her to know that I was right beside her. We got out of the room after another minute or so of Cynthia trying to round us up. I just found it hard to let her go.I peeked through t

    Cassandra’s POV“How does it feel to be pregnant?”She had barely slipped the blunt past her lips when I decided to ask. It took her a second or two delay before she began coughing up the smoke. I shook my head, not enough to get noticed but still showing a little bit of disappointment at her level of predictability and I haven’t even spent that much time with her.She looked up at me as if contemplating what her next reply was supposed to be. She kept staring at me and I stared back at her. Something in my expression should have told her I knew exactly what I was talking about and she didn’t have to lie. Eventually, she conceded. Her eyes fell to the ground. Good girl…“Yeah no, I don’t know. I don’t know what’s going on for now. I don’t even think I want to be pregnant right now…I am sure that is not what the pack would want.” She said, staring down at her fingers.“Hey…” I touched her shoulder, studying her reaction to know if I could move further. She didn’t seem bothered by it. Y

    Audrey’s POVI wasn’t supposed to be out. I mean outside here in public. Inside the hall would have been safer in Trudeau’s opinion but I was tired of the loud music, the dancing, and the increased popularity. Plus, I was moving around with the consciousness of anyone who could tell I was pregnant. At times I would find myself looking at an unclear reflection of myself and my heart would skip thinking I had a bump shooting out of my tummy. I should know better that pregnancy doesn’t work like that.So I was outside smoking a joint under a tree instead of trying to fit in with everyone inside. Heck…I don’t even dance. That’s the problem. Or part of it rather.“Tired already?” Cassandra’s voice never failed to take away all of the peace I had every time she showed up unannounced, which was beginning to happen a little too often for my liking. There was a time when we barely ran into each other. It is scary that that is what I would refer to as a good time right now. She made herself vis

    Audrey’s POVYou may be wondering why I had to jump back on the bed a second before I heard Trudeau slam something on the wall before yelling through the house with frustration.“Fuck!”I sat back up on the bed, looking for an excuse, anything to come out without sounding like I had been awake for a while. So I went into the bathroom, dabbing my face with a moistened clean towel, making sure to make me look kind of messy before I walked out of the room with the stray in my hands. My room was one of the few rooms on the downstairs floor and it emptied into a corridor which in turn showed the way to the living room.There he was, lying on a chair with the frustration of the world evident on his face. I dropped the tray on the closest flat surface I could find. It was never really my main mission to begin with. I got closer to him, subconsciously being careful of my every step as I didn’t want to piss him off by being too loud knowing how sensitive he got whenever things got too loud aro
