That night, Darren couldn't sleep. His mind kept on focusing on what happened an hour ago. His back was on the bed and his head facing the ceiling. He wondered if he really exaggerated everything, even after catching a whiff of Stanley's scent on her. It meant that she had cheated on him. That was an enough reason to act that way towards her, wasn't it? Fuck! He didn't know the right from wrong again. Everything was just upside down for him. He wondered if everything would still remain the same or not....between Lucy and him. While thinking about that, he hit his fist on the bed and started grumbling to himself. He realised that talking to himself and making himself go through torture wasn't the best thing to do. He had to meet up with Lucy and talk to her about it. Yes, that was what he had to do. He turned to rest on his side. His mind was fixed on Lucy as he shut his eyes to sleep, hoping the day after had some good news for him. *********** The next morni
Lucy scoffed at him, she scoffed at alpha Darren! At that point, she wasn't scared of him - or his threats. She was tired, really tired. He had been hurting her and she was tired of always putting up with that. She really was! Just the day before, she still watched him threaten her and her family also. And now, he was doing the same and that was hurting her badly. "You can't even dare, okay? You can't because you're nothing but a coward. Yes, you're a coward, Alpha Darren. I'm saying it right now, you can kill me if you want, but it's not going to stop me from saying the truth. That, I promise you. You've been hurting me for way too long, and I'm sorry, but I can't keep on staying with that. You're mean, and you don't deserve anyone to stay with you." She continued pointing at him accusingly. Darren didn't say anything, because he didn't know how he was going to tell her that she was already too late. He already took actions on that, and he didn't regret it at all. How
"I don't need to know. I know you're evil, that's enough for me." Lucy started struggling with Darren again, but she was getting weaker by the second. So, she could only do little. "I'm not asking, Lucy! I'm telling you!" He pushed her down, and that was it. She stopped struggling and decided to listen to him. He had power over her anyway, so she didn't want to do anything that'd make him hurt her father. "So, after you left, I decided that I really had to do something for you to believe me and to respect me too. I walked to your room to warn you and give you one last chance, but then, I heard you mind linking your father and you were crying. I just knew that you were talking him to hide. But, guess what? I was faster." Lucy rolled her eyes and stopped looking at him, but she was still listening to what he was saying. She needed to know everything. "I sent a few guards to your dad's house. You actually tried your best because he was really preparing to leave the house
With everything that was happening, Carlos was not interested in seeing Darren at all. He was angry at him because of what he did to Lucy. Because of that, he contemplated between going back to meet Maddie until everything already blew over, or going to meet him to confront him about everything. He settled for the latter and walked into the house with a deep frown. His hands were swinging by his side, showing only a quarter of the anger that was boiling in him. "Alpha Darren!" He yelled when he got to the throne hall, but he didn't see Darren there at all. In fact, there was nobody there. The rest of the pack members were on the field, having a fist fight. He saw a maid passing by, and he stopped her to ask about Darren. "where's the alpha?" The maid pointed towards the study before leaving with her head slightly bowed. Carlos stared at the direction she pointed to, before he started moving again, walking towards the study in long strides. When he got to the study
"Alpha Darren, I wanted to ask if we were still going to continue our fencing." A guard walked up to Darren, who had his eyes closed. He inched closer and realized that Darren didn't even hear a word he said. "I wanted to ask if -" he stopped when Darren started opening his eyes slowly. He narrowed his eyes at the guard, as he slightly bowed. He asked Darren the question, but he was dismissed almost immediately. Darren was left alone, alone with his thoughts. He noticed that his eyes were closing in on him, and he was suddenly feeling dizzy, something that didn't happen five minutes before. Thinking that he just needed to walk it off, he stood up but sat back down almost immediately. He furrowed his brows, trying to think about what was happening. "What's wrong?" He asked himself, when his bones suddenly started getting weak. He punched the middle of his brows and grumbled to himself. He was feeling sleepy, and he just thought that if he went to his room, then he would feel better
When Darren was about to get to Lucy's room, a guard walked up to him and stopped him. "Um, alpha Darren. I think there's something you need to attend to on the field. It's about one of the pack members." He was surprised, because the guard had never called him for anything like that before. "What's wrong? I'm sure it's something you should be able to handle, right?" The guard slowly shook his head, knowing that if it wasn't serious, then he wouldn't have called him. With his eyes still fixed on Lucy's door, he told the guard that he was going to go and meet him soon, saying that he just had to take care of something. "No, alpha. It's pretty serious. Two of the pack members - Liam and Sam, are fighting and it's getting pretty bloody. I'm sure thier wolves would have taken over now." Darren could hear the urgency in the guard's voice, so he peeled his eyes away from her door and went with the guard to see what was really wrong. In Lucy's room, Sharon was still there on the bed, slee
"I am telling you, Darren. I don't know where she is. If I did, I'd have definitely told you. She's so dear to me." Sharon lied, slowly turning her head to face him. Darren scanned her face for a while with anger brewing in him. After staring at her for about three seconds, he slowly turned towards the door. He realised that there was no way she would do something like that. She wasn't smart enough. When he was about to get to the door, he felt Sharon's hands around him. "Please, stay with me. I can't stop thinking about-" he pushed her away, before she had the chance to finish her sentence. "Stay away from me! Don't dare me, Sharon. Don't." He threatened, before walking out of his room angrily. He had more than enough things to worry about, he didn't want Sharon to add to them. Darren took long strides to his study and started pacing around, while thinking of what to do. His mind drifted to her dad, who was locked up. He was sure that even though he warned the guards not to let he
"You're not going anywhere, alpha Darren. You're in my pack house right now. You can't just barge in here and try and have your way, it's not possible!" Alpha Stanley went to stand before Darren, glaring at him like he was about to hurt him. Darren's eyes started darkening, because since he already said that he was going to get Lucy, he didn't care about anything else, especially not what Stanley was telling him. "You know me so much by now. You should know that not even you can't stop me. That's how it is. I know my Lucy is in there, and I'm going to get her." He pushed past Stanley, and started walking into the house, when four bulky looking men walked forward with their wicked eyes fixed on Darren. "What's this? We both know that I could end these four if I want to. Tell them to leave my way, now! I'm not going to repeat it, Stanley." Darren continued threatening with his eyes fixed on the men. A wicked smile danced on Stanley's lips, as he stepped forward to face D
"Lina! Come back here, your father will not be happy to see you running around like this. Remember that you almost had an accident yesterday." Her mother shouted to her.Lina turned around and shouted back. "Common mother sheam not a kid anymore, for crying out loud sheam twenty and I can take care here of myself. Go back, I'll return as soon as the sun begins to set."Lucy would have loved to let her go but she was given strict rules by Darren to never let Lina out of her sight. She could not understand why Darren treated his daughter like a prisoner."Lina please for my sake just come back, else your father is going to be angry at you and I.""I am sorry mother but those words can not deceive me anymore. You are too old for Dad to scold you..She was still talking when she suddenly fell into a ditch.Lucy had no idea of what had happened to Lina because she was far away from her and she had a terrible eye problem.She shouted a few words to Lina but she did not get any reply from he
Two years had passed since the birth of their first child, and Darren found himself in the open fields with his young son. The little boy's name was Ethan, a name that held a special meaning to Darren and Lucy. It was a sunny day, with a gentle breeze rustling through the trees, as father and son embarked on a special lesson.Darren stood tall, his strong presence emanating confidence and love. He held a bow and arrow in his hands, patiently teaching Ethan the art of archery. With each step, Darren explained the importance of focus, discipline, and respect for the weapon they held.Ethan, his eyes filled with curiosity and excitement, eagerly listened to his father's guidance. He held a small bow, specially crafted for his size, and a quiver filled with harmless arrows. Darren's voice was gentle yet firm, as he demonstrated the proper stance and technique to his young apprentice."Remember, Ethan," Darren said, his voice filled with pride, "archery is not just about hitting the target
Inside the delivery room, Lucy lay on the bed, a mix of fear and anticipation coursing through her veins. She clung to the hope that everything would be alright for both her and the baby. The medical team worked tirelessly, utilizing their expertise and skill to navigate the complications and ensure the best possible outcome.Lucy closed her eyes and took deep breaths, trying to remain as calm as possible amidst the whirlwind of emotions. She focused on the love she felt for her baby, sending positive thoughts and energy into the universe.As the moments turned into hours, Darren paced back and forth outside the delivery room, his worry refusing to subside. Each passing second felt like an eternity, and he yearned for any sign of good news.Finally, the door swung open, and the doctor stepped out, their face beaming with relief. Darren's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly approached the doctor, eager for an update."Darren, we have good news," the doctor said, their voice filled w

She had never imagined that she could experience such happiness after the terrible incident when she was stabbed. It was like a miracle to her, a second chance at life.

It was a constant reminder of the miracle of life and the beauty of creation.Lucy often found
As the sun cast its warm golden rays across the tranquil landscape, Lucy stood near the window, her hand gently caressing the gentle swell of her belly.

The twins, a testament to Maddie's unwavering love, tugged at her sleeve, seeking attention. Maddie playfully shooed them away, ensuring that Lucy had a moment of tranquility.With a smile, Maddie retreated, leaving Lucy and Darren alone in their private sanctuary. Darren entered the room, his eyes filled w
Lucy, now fully awake and aware, smiled weakly at the doctor. "Thank you for your care, but it seems I am more than healthy. The moonstone has granted me its blessings, and I am eternally grateful."The doctor nodded, his voice filled with reverence. "Truly, this is a remarkable turn of events. The moonstone's power is beyond anything I have ever witnessed. It has bestowed upon you a gift of extraordinary healing."As the news of Lucy's miraculous recovery spread throughout the pack, a sense of hope and renewed faith permeated the air. Pack members approached her one by one, their expressions a mix of relief and joy, offering words of congratulations and gratitude for her restored well-being.Darren stood by Lucy's side, his heart overflowing with love and gratitude. "You are a beacon of strength, my Luna," he whispered, his voice filled with awe. "The moonstone has chosen you, and with its power, we shall protect our pack and each other."Lucy's eyes shimmered with a renewed determin
The battlefield trembled under the weight of their relentless clash, the air thick with the scent of blood and the echoes of battle cries. Alpha Stanley and Alpha Darren locked in a fierce combat, their movements a symphony of strength and skill. Stanley, fueled by his thirst for power, launched a series of swift attacks, his eyes burning with a twisted determination. Darren, fueled by his love for Lucy and the desire to protect his pack, parried each blow with calculated precision.But in the midst of their intense struggle, a sudden and piercing pain shot through Darren's body, causing him to falter for a split second. He staggered backward, his eyes widening in disbelief. A sense of foreboding washed over him, a feeling that something had gone horribly wrong. Instinctively, he knew that Lucy was in danger.With a desperate surge of adrenaline, Darren fought his way through the chaos of the battlefield, his heart pounding in his chest. Panic gripped him as he scanned the scene, his
As the moon reached its zenith, casting an ethereal glow over the pack's gathering grounds, Stanley stood tall upon a makeshift podium. His gaze swept over the assembled warriors, their eyes gleaming with fierce determination. The air crackled with anticipation, charged by the imminent clash of forces. He raised his hand, signaling for silence, and the clamor gradually subsided, leaving a palpable tension in its wake."My loyal warriors!" Stanley's voice boomed, resonating through the night air. "The time has come for us to claim what is rightfully ours. Alpha Darren and his pack have defied us for far too long. Their reign ends tonight!"A chorus of fierce roars erupted from the crowd, the collective voice of an army poised for battle. The warriors, their bodies rippling with power and their eyes burning with a thirst for victory, eagerly awaited their Alpha's command."We will strike with unmatched force and unwavering resolve," Stanley continued, his voice commanding attention.

Entering her dimly lit room, Sharon's mind still grappling with the weight of the mission assigned to her, she was taken aback to find Kelila waiting there, her weathered face etched with lines of wisdom and concern. The room felt heavy with the weight of their secrets and the impending doom that seemed to loom over them.Her heart jumped because of how scared she looked."Kelila, what are you doing here?" Sharon asked, her voice filled with a mix of surprise and curiosity. "I thought you had left the meeting. Is something the matter?"Kelila sighed, her gaze intense as she locked eyes with Sharon. "Sharon, there is much we need to discuss. Sit down, my child."Sharon hesitated for a moment before taking a seat, her heart pounding with anticipation. There was something about Kelila's tone that indicated this conversation held grave importance."I have seen visions, Sharon," Kelila began, her voice steady but laced with a sense of urgency. "Visions of a great darkness that will descend
