“There is someone I would like you all to meet,” Lucian said, breaking the silence as he turned to stare down at her in a loving manner, a way he had never looked at me before, “the mother of my child.” My eyes widened in shock as I took in the sight of her swollen belly, a clear evidence of her pregnancy. The mother of my child? What did he mean by that? ***** Selena, the resilient Luna of Blood Moon Pack, was promised to her husband, the Alpha of Crescent Moon Pack. But, she was abandoned by him after their wedding. Mocked by her mother-in-law, and with the help of the stunning Beta, Logan, she’s able to handle the pack’s affairs in anticipation of her husband’s return. Three years later, her dearest husband betrays her by returning with his pregnant mate and is determined to kick her out of the pack regardless of her contributions and dedication. Despite her hurt, Selena is determined to not allow her husband to ruin everything she had worked so hard for, especially when she is certain the pack would need her now more than ever. But secrets bigger than Selena’s resilience reside in the heart of Crescent Moon Pack, and the sudden spark of a mate bond she had believed she would never experience threatens to change everything she has ever known to be true.
View MoreLogan’s POV.It was difficult letting her head back home alone, a part of me knew just how shaken up she was by the whole thing and letting her head back home on her own might make things worse for her. I tried to speak to her before she left, and the way she just kept nodding and the fake smile she forced on troubled me.Lucian, that bastard always found a way to hurt her, and until I was able to eradicate him from her life totally, then I would always be there to protect her from him.“Turn the car around.” I ordered the driver just as we headed down the road that would lead us to the neighbouring packs where my investigation was supposed to start.The plan was to find out as much as I could about the raid that Lucian had carried out and get back to Selena, but I could not bring myself to do that when she was feeling that way.The look on her face was something I didn’t like, and I knew this was not the time to be away from her.“Sir that would be heading back to the…”“Just head b
Selena’s POV.“I would ask around and see what I can find. You should head back just in case anything goes wrong.” Logan advised as he led me towards the car and signalled for the guard behind the wheel to take me home.“Avoid talking to him until I get back, just in case he tries something stupid.” He added, and I nodded even though I had no idea what he was talking about. I wasn’t focused on what he was saying. What I was more focused on was what had just happened.I needed to talk to Lucian and I appreciated the fact that Logan wanted to stay back and gather information from the pack members that had witnessed what had happened because everything still made no sense, I needed to talk to Lucian and there was nothing he was going to say that would stop me.“I would be back before you know it. Just go up to your room and rest. As soon as I get back, we will talk to Lucian together.” He added, and I simply smiled up at him as if I agreed with whatever he had just said.It was just to g
Selena’s POV.“What the fuck do you think you’re trying to achieve Selena?” Lucian growled at me, “turning Logan against me isn’t bad enough but you dare to challenge my authority before my Luna, elders and guards.”“You should have thought of that first before you tricked my father into signing away the pack to you and as if that wasn’t bad enough, you lied to him about me being pregnant for you and even went as far as poisoning him. You crossed a line Lucian and I am not going to let this slide.” I yelled back at him.He looked taken aback to hear me say that but he was quick to recover from the shock and acted like I had not just said something.“Do I look like I care about what happens to you and your father? He was dumb enough to believe your barren womb could ever conceive plus you and I both know that this is how it should be. I should be the Alpha of both packs and my territories should only expand. He was stupid to think he could outsmart with that useless rule of his.”It an
Selena. “Luna Selena, Luna Selena, Luna Selena,” someone called out to me as I stirred awake on the bed. It was my maid’s voice and at first, I thought she had just stopped by to check on me but when she kept shaking me and forcing me to wake up, I opened my eyes slowly only to find her staring right into my eyes. “What the hell…” I grumbled as I sat up on the bed. I was surprised to see her so early in my room. I didn’t have any appointments today except with Logan, so why was she here? “I don’t need to take a bath so early so you can go, I still want to get some sleep.” I said to her but she still didn’t leave, she kept calling out to me to wake up and it was when her voice became unbearable and making it really difficult for me to sleep before I sat up on the bed with a frustrated grunt. The moment my eyes rested on her, I noticed something was wrong because I had just noticed the expression on her face. It got me curious and worried at the same time. “What happened?” I as
Selena. The elders quickly called the people together as soon as they heard. I had somehow managed to gather enough food for the entire pack, and word about my achievement spread like wild fire. I knew Lucian would be hell-bent on embarrassing me in front of his pack members, so I was expecting the worse as I joined him downstairs. As soon as I stepped on stage beside Lucian and Cindy, the people clapped and cheered their appreciation for what I had done, and that did not sit well with Lucian and Cindy. They both looked pissed. So, as expected, Lucian found away to inch closer to me and whisper into my ears with a sinister tone, “I must admit, I didn’t think you would be able to pull this off, but to stoop this low to get the people to like you and make me jealous is just disgusting Selena. If you’re truly a Luna, you would act like one and not a pitiful omega that was picked up from the streets.” His voice carried just the right amount of contempt that he had for me. "If all
Selena. “If you really want me to do this then there is something I would like you to agree to,” I suddenly called out to him just as he was about to start ascending the stairs back into the mansion with Cindy, “if I can solve this problem and fill the reserve back up with food, Cindy would never get involved in the pack affairs again and you would always respect whatever decisions I make regarding the pack.” “What??” Lucian seemed taken aback to hear that. He turned around sharply to pin me with a glare, “this was an order from me, not something you can bet about.” “On the other hand, if I can’t do it, then I would agree to the divorce and step down from my position as Luna so that Cindy can step up to it.” I added, and I saw the look on Cindy’s face, I knew she would love to hear something like that. In a manipulative manner, she whispered something to Lucian, but he wasn’t listening. He was staring right at me, and before I could open my mouth to say anything, he beat me to
Selena. After the whole thing with Father and Cindy, I retired early to bed because I was so exhausted and before I knew what was going on, I was fast asleep but the sound of hurried footsteps outside my door woke me up and I rushed out of bed. It sounded like something serious was going on because I could hear people screaming so I hurriedly threw open my door and stepped out into the hallways just to see guards rushing up and down to help the maids that were bringing out huge jars of water. “What’s going on?” I grabbed one of the maids by the arm, and she looked up at me with panic, “what’s with all the commotion?” “There is a fire!” She screamed as she struggled to free herself from my grip and rush down with the others. My brows furrowed as I held on tightly to her, “Fire? Where? How? I thought there was a party going on and…” “At the reserves. It caught fire a while ago, and everyone is trying to stop the fire from spreading because the last batch of the food is hidden
Selena. “Three days! Three good days, Beta Liam, and we have found nothing. At this rate, we might never be able to find whoever did this to my father.” I said to Beta Liam as I paced the length of his study, anxiously bitting at my nails. “The council meeting was just like the others. The council members are worried, and the people are already spreading rumours that he might die soon. I am sincerely confused Selena, who would want to harm your father to this extent?” He sighed heavily as he eased into his seat. We have been like this for the past three day, desperately going through every single detail in hopes that we would find whoever it was that tried to hurt father but no matter how hard we tried or how many people we interrogated, we ended up with nothing. “Maybe we should go through the information about the people that visited him up until he got poisoned. We might be able to…” “It’s useless Selena, that was the first thing I did when I found out about what happened,
Selena. “The healer suspects it to be poison.” One of the elders on my father’s council said to me as we made our way inside. It has barely been up to five minutes since we arrived at the pack house. “What?!” I stopped dead in my tracks and stared straight into his eyes, “what do you mean by poison? Who would dare to pull off something like that?” “We are not sure yet, but your father’s beta is already working on it as we speak. For now, we suggest you leave things to us and focus on spending time with your father. He has missed you a lot.” The elder advised, and I sighed heavily because I knew he was right. It had indeed been a really long time since I saw him last, and I felt nervous about seeing him again. Katherine must have noticed it because she stepped forward and held my hand in hers, I smiled at her, and we made our way upstairs. The maid accompanying us stopped in front of his room and pulled Katherine aside, “The Alpha would like to see his daughter alone.” She s
Selena.“Six years of marriage and still not a single child from Selena.” My mother in law Brinny snapped at me in front of the entire council, “a true Luna should know that without bringing forth an heir, she has failed her pack and her husband.”The entire room fell silent because they knew not to say a word to aggravate her whenever she started this conversation.“But how can she have a child when Lucian is away most of the time?” Katherine, my sister in law and favorite human in the pack house, tried to defend me, but her mother shut her up almost immediately.“Maybe if she found a way to make him stay back like a real wife should, maybe he wouldn’t have left. Maybe if she tried to capture his heart rather than focusing on matters that should be handled by the Alpha, she would have given us an heir by now.”Whispers and murmurs broke out among the council members who were mostly family of my husband, Lucian. I could tell from the look on their faces that they were panicking but un
