Jack's POV

"Damn it!" I groaned as the faint buzz of my phone jolted me awake in the early morning light, casting long shadows across the dark room.

I blinked, trying to shake off the grogginess, but the persistent notification light blinked continuously. I reached over, snatched my phone off the nightstand and looked at it.

When I read the contents, my eyes widened immediately and all trace of sleep disappeared.

It was a message marked "EXTREMELY URGENT!! An emergency meeting… for all the alphas in the East?" I read our loud.

What the hell?!

That couldn't be good. They never gathered us together this suddenly unless something serious had happened.

And that serious thing was never ever any good news.

Worry ate at me, and a hint of suspicion crept in. I really wasn't in the mood for any more problems, but experience told me that this had to be more than just another minor skirmish or territory dispute. Whatever it was, it was big.

I slid out of bed, took a shower and dressed up quick

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    A calamity

    Ivonne's POV The liquid burned on the way down—hot, sharp, and smoky, like it carried fire in it instead of alcohol. I coughed softly and cleared my throat.Tessa immediately clapped her hands, laughing. “There you go! Look at you. You’re becoming more Lycan by the day.”I shot her a look. “Let’s not get carried away.”She grinned and raised her own cup. “Cheers to that.” She drank deeply, far less cautious than I was, and then nudged her cup toward me. “Come on, one more.”I shook my head quickly. “Nope. Absolutely not.”Her smile softened. “Still worried about what happened last time?”“Yes,” I said without hesitation. “Very.”Tessa nodded, understanding immediately. “That makes sense. You don’t handle Lycan mead the way we do. You went pale last time.”“And then everything went to hell,” I muttered.She sighed and leaned back. “Fair.”For a moment, we just sat there in silence, the air heavy with everything unsaid. Then Tessa glanced at me carefully.“So… has Hector made any progr

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Telling the concubines

    Ivonne's POV Tessa practically lit up the moment she saw me. “Ivonne,” she said, pushing herself up from the chair so quickly it scraped against the floor. “You finally came, it's been so long since you came to our rooms.” Her smile was so genuine it made my chest ache a little. I hadn’t realized how long it had been since I’d stepped foot in their rooms until now. Between the arrest, attack, Hector, the investigation, and everything spiraling out of control, I’d unintentionally disappeared from our blooming friendship. “I know,” I said softly. “I’m sorry. Things have been… chaotic.” Tessa waved it off, already moving closer. “We figured. Elara kept saying you were probably being buried under co president duties.” I glanced at Elara. She didn’t smile. She sat on the edge of the bed, arms crossed, posture rigid. Her expression was polite in the way that wasn’t polite at all — tight lips, guarded eyes, the kind of look that said she was bracing for bad news. My nerves flared.

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance     A Luna's duty

    Ivonne's POV I woke up deliciously warm today.And it was Not the vague, fleeting warmth of blankets or sunlight—but the solid, steady kind that came from being held by someone. An arm was wrapped around my waist, firm and possessive in a way that didn’t feel suffocating at all. My back was pressed to a broad chest, and for a second, before my mind fully caught up, I just lay there and breathed.Then it hit me.All the things Hector had said to me yesterday.The kiss or kisses we shared. The confessions. The way he’d looked at me like he’d finally stopped holding himself back.Hector and I were officially together nowMy heart did a small, foolish flip.I shifted slightly, careful not to wake him, and felt his grip tighten automatically, like his body had decided I belonged right there even while he slept. It made my lips curve into a soft, stunned smile.I was still shocked.But happy.Dangerously happy.I tilted my head just enough to look at him. Even asleep, Hector looked intens

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Kissing Hector

    Ivonne's POV I was still lost in the kiss when his hands began to move over my body in the most delicious way.He wasnt pushy or inappropriate, his touches were warm, grounding, trailing down my arms, my waist and pulling me closer like he was afraid I’d disappear if he loosened his hold. It made my head spin anyway.I kissed him back without thinking, fervent and clumsy and honest. Everything I’d been holding in spilled out through that kiss— all my fear, relief, longing, disbelief poured through the kiss.His breath hitched, and that tiny sound alone made my knees weak.We stumbled, half-laughing, half-breathless, until the back of my legs hit the bed. I didn’t even remember sitting down. One second I was standing, the next I was sinking into soft sheets with him hovering over me, his forehead resting against mine.I suddenly remembered how nice kissing was.No—how delicious it was.I hadnt even realized i had forgotten the feeling. I had forgotten How it made the world quiet. How

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Ivonnes declaration

    Ivonnes povI sat on the edge of the bed, hands clenched in my lap, staring at the floor like it might give me answers if I looked hard enough.Meanwhile, Hector kept silently pacing. Back and forth. Back and forth.The room felt too small for his long strides, too tight for the weight pressing on my chest. Every time he passed me, I felt the rush of air, the tension rolling off him in waves. He looked like a man trying to outrun his own thoughts—and failing.“Hector,” I said softly.He didn’t stop.“Hector please talk to me,” I repeated, louder this time.He paused near the window, his back to me, shoulders stiff.“You have to tell me Why.” I asked, my voice breaking despite my effort to stay calm. “Tell me Why you suddenly want to end the engagement you kept pushing for.”He stayed quiet for a long moment. Then he turned, his expression grim, eyes dark with something that looked dangerously close to guilt.“Alright, Lets say tonight you got lucky, but Lucky or not,” he said slowly,

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Are you kidding me

    Ivonnes povI opened my mouth to answer him—and nothing came out.Hector was still looking at me with that same incredulous expression, like he was trying to solve a puzzle that refused to make sense but I couldn't blame him because I felt it too.I felt that hollow confusion sitting heavy in my chest. I genuinely didn’t know how I had done it. I didn’t know how I’d fought off two Lycans for that long, how my body had moved faster than my thoughts, how panic had somehow turned into strength.“I don’t know,” I finally admitted, my voice small. “I swear. I don’t know how I did it. Maybe I was just lucky? or maybe the goddess just granted me favor." I smiled a little uneasily."Luck?" Hector whispered then studied my face for a long moment, searching for something— maybe fear, deceit, answers I didn’t have. Then, slowly, his shoulders loosened And he shook his head.“Whatever, We’ll figure it out later,” he said at last, brushing it aside with effort. “Right now, that’s not what matters.
